Chapter 507: Demon Attack on the Beast Race Territory
Inside the Beast Race High Priest's tent.
Wali heard that a total of 10 Buluo were attacked by Two-legged Sheep last night, and not a single person survived.
"Are these the Two-legged Sheep from the Fourth Defense Zone? They have been a bit too arrogant lately. Do they think that because they could withstand our attacks, they can defeat us?"
Wali sat on his Two-legged Sheep skin chair, his sharp claws digging deep into the bones beneath the seat; amidst the sound of cracking bones, spiderweb-like cracks bloomed on the armrests of Wali's chair.
The hundred dried Two-legged Sheep skins hanging from the tent's dome suddenly moved without wind, and those heads, shrunk to the size of fists by secret techniques, swayed wildly between the knotted spell ropes.
"Ten Buluo? Ten Buluo in a single night!"
The low roar he squeezed out from between his Liaya made the incense burner engraved with complex patterns in the tent hum and vibrate.
"Since when did the Two-legged Sheep of the Fourth Defense Zone become so brave?"
Wali looked at the war drums hanging inside the tent and said this through gritted teeth.
The twelve war drums hanging on the four walls of the tent sounded without being struck, each drum skin covered with the face of a Two-legged Sheep.
Those faces, twisted in agony from when they were skinned alive, twitched in the sound waves, and blood flowed along the Rune grooves on the drum stands into the blood pool on the ground.
Just then, the gem on Wali's staff emitted a ghostly blue light; Wali swept his left hand, and a ghostly blue point of light was drawn from the gem, revealing an Orc wearing a Priest Changpao who was currently speaking to Wali with an anxious look on his face.
"High Priest Wali! It's bad! The Demon Race has launched an attack on hundreds of our border Buluo and dispatched a large number of low-level Demons to ravage our territory. I sent a ten-thousand-man unit to clear out the low-level Demons at the border, but I didn't expect the Demons to have a Demon General-level Demon, who turned our warriors into a pool of blood!"
Hearing this report from the Beast Race Priest, Wali immediately felt a headache; why did the Demon Race have to stir up trouble at this time? They just had to come and join the fray right when those Two-legged Sheep were at their most arrogant.
"Dongnuowu, since the Demon Race has declared war on us, we cannot be cowards! Have the surrounding Buluo gather together; I will lead a large army to support you. Prepare the sacrifices on your end; I need to activate the Teleportation Array, and it requires a large number of sacrifices!"
After hearing Wali's words, a hideous smile appeared on Dongnuowu's face, which had previously been somewhat sorrowful.
"Yes, this subordinate will go and handle it immediately!"
The ghostly blue light image before him vanished, and Wali looked at the chair made of Two-legged Sheep skin with a grave expression, saying in a grim tone.
"Have the Buluo near the Fourth Defense Zone gather first; being too scattered makes it easy for the Two-legged Sheep to launch sneak attacks!"
"Hmm, gather them to form a deterrent, then conduct a large-scale migration. Once the war with the Demons is over, we will deal with this bunch of Two-legged Sheep! That is the plan!"
Ninth Defense Zone, 23rd Corps, No. 7 Position.
Position Commander Yuan Yixing was assembling his troops; the weapons and equipment sent successively by the Military District over the past few days had already been distributed to every soldier.
As the foremost position of the 23rd Corps, Yuan Yixing received an order from the Colonel this morning.
Immediately assemble forces and advance toward the Zerg territory.
"Commander Yuan Yixing, how are your troops prepared?"
A Cadian Commissar wearing a tall pointed hat and a khaki uniform walked up to Yuan Yixing and said in a serious tone.
The purple pupils beneath the Cadian Commissar's tall pointed hat brim stared at Yuan Yixing, and seeing this, Yuan Yixing immediately said to the Cadian Commissar.
"Everything is prepared, and we can set out to eliminate the Zerg according to the original plan."
As he spoke, Yuan Yixing's gaze fell upon the Power Sword at the Cadian Commissar's waist, his heart filled with envy.
He wondered when he would also be able to have a weapon like that.
Beneath Yuan Yixing's fully enclosed individual helmet, the preparation progress of each combat unit flickered; as the preparation progress reached full capacity, Yuan Yixing issued an order in his direct officer communication channel.
"No. 7 Position, all personnel in position, begin the advance! For the Emperor!"
Chimera Armored Vehicles, mixed with a few Leman Russ Tanks, drove out of the position; one of the Chimera Armored Vehicles did not follow the armored unit's advance but instead opened its passenger cabin, waiting for the Cadian Commissar.
"Commander Yuan Yixing, maintain contact at all times; our armored unit will clear the obstacles ahead."
After the Cadian Commissar left this sentence, he entered the passenger cabin of the Chimera Armored Vehicle and merged into the vast armored unit.
The Cadian soldiers followed behind the Cadian armored unit, advancing with the armored unit, while the Human Alliance armored units were on the flanks of the Cadian armored unit.
A force of nearly 50,000 people surged out of No. 7 Position, leaving only a small number of Human Alliance soldiers to guard the position.
The army had been advancing for more than half an hour when suddenly, a strange vibration came from the ground.
"Sir, there is a strong vibration coming from the surface five kilometers away!"
Inside the passenger cabin of the Chimera Armored Vehicle, the Cadian Commissar received the report from the lead armored vehicle and immediately ordered.
"Continue the advance, pay attention to the location of the vibration source, and if there is any anomaly, open fire immediately! Stifle the danger in the cradle!"
Five kilometers away, the surface covered with pale green spores suddenly bulged as dozens of wriggling burrowing worms emerged, and dark green acid sprayed out from the tube openings dug by the burrowing worms.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The Chimera Armored Vehicles at the very front of the Cadian armored unit opened fire immediately upon seeing the burrowing worms.
Heavy Bolter rounds whistled past, severing the bodies of dozens of burrowing worms that had just poked their heads out; the burrowing worm bodies exposed on the surface were still wriggling, but they were quickly torn to shreds by the Heavy Bolter fire from the Chimera Armored Vehicles.
In the sky, several Reconnaissance Drones transmitted the captured footage back to the Human Alliance armored unit's information channel.
In the footage sent back by the Reconnaissance Drones, a large number of Zerg were pouring out of the tunnels dug by those burrowing worms.
"Attention, everyone!"
Yuan Yixing's roar exploded in the communication channel,
"Provide fire support for the Cadian armored unit and help them save ammunition; their ammunition needs to be used against the Zerg behind!"
More than 20 drones flew out from the Human Alliance armored units on the flanks; they flew into the tunnels in a suicide charge, and accompanied by bursts of explosions, the tunnels just dug by the burrowing worms were filled in, and no more Zerg crawled out.
"This new weapon is really good to use; you only need to infuse it with Spiritual Power, and after the explosion, it can cut off the connection between the controlling Zerg and them!"
Seeing the performance of the new drones on the battlefield, Yuan Yixing said with some excitement.
Seeing that those Aliens were no longer appearing, the Cadian armored unit continued to advance forward.
Soon, a Hatchery over a hundred meters high appeared in everyone's field of vision, and a large number of Zerg poured out from within the Hatchery.
"Open fire!"
The first to open fire were the Human Alliance armored units on the flanks; this swarm of Zerg looked imposing, but in reality, they were all low-level Zerg like swift bugs and suicide bugs.
By the time the Cadian armored unit opened fire, this swarm had already been more than half depleted; other than consuming some of the Human Alliance armored unit's ammunition, they had achieved nothing.
