Chapter 648: Attacking the Third Defense Zone Wall (2)

As more and more breaches were blown open in the Outer City Wall of the Third Defense Zone, some of the Zerg pouring out of the gaps were of the less threatening variety.

"Assault team, take positions!"

Seeing that no difficult Crystal Death Servants were pouring out of the breach on his side, the Cadian Staff Sergeant growled to the Cadian soldiers beside him.

Ten Cadian Shock Troopers spread out in a triangular formation, and under the leadership of the Cadian Staff Sergeant, used their laser guns to gun down the Death Servant Zerg pouring from the breach.

When this Cadian Squad charged into the Outer City of the Third Defense Zone, the Cadian soldier in the lead was suddenly struck in the upper body by a plasma shot; the intense high temperature quickly burned the Cadian soldier until only half his body remained.

"Cover me!"

After the Cadian Staff Sergeant issued the order, he quickly used his laser gun to pick off the Huotipaitai that was firing at them from above.

A laser beam struck the center of the Huotipaitai's oral cavity, and the laser beam instantly burned a hole in the Huotipaitai's mouth.

When this Huotipaitai fired plasma again, the plasma followed the breach deep inside, causing the Huotipaitai to finish itself off.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The artillery formation in the rear suddenly launched a dense barrage of fire, momentarily blasting back the Crystal Death Servants pouring from the breach.

Li Haima panted heavily as he followed a unit into the Outer City of the Third Defense Zone; his luck was decent, as the Crystal Death Servants had not yet paid attention to their breach.

"Third Squad! Provide covering crossfire!"

The squad Li Haima was in merged with another squad that had suffered heavy losses to form a temporary Third Squad; upon receiving the order, Li Haima followed his comrades and fired continuously at the surging Zerg, the barrels of their laser guns even beginning to heat up due to the constant firing.

Laser beams wove a net of fire through the spore mist, blocking the Zerg attempting to fill the breach.

As more and more soldiers charged into the Outer City of the Third Defense Zone through the breach, the Zerg that wanted to fill the gap were held back by the powerful firepower.

Furthermore, the 88th Legion was the first to arrive and link up with the 86th Legion, and the Death Korps of Krieg, having just arrived on the battlefield, were immediately committed to the front-line fighting.

The Krieg soldiers stepped onto the still-burning Juntan and charged into the breach, muffled breathing sounds emanating from beneath their gas masks.

Their greatcoats were stained with acidic blood, and the Lucius Pattern 98 Lasguns in their hands fired continuously at the Aliens ahead.

The first Krieg soldier to charge into the breach was suddenly pierced through the chest by a purple Electric Light Scythe.

A three-meter-tall Crystal Death Servant burst out of the smoke, the energy crystals on its carapace refracting an eerie purple light.

Facing his chest being pierced, this Krieg soldier, at the very last moment of his life, stabbed his bayonet toward the Crystal Death Servant, but the blade only struck the opponent's energy crystal and did not injure the Crystal Death Servant.

More Krieg soldiers rushed into the breach; Krieg soldiers were constantly being pierced or dismembered by Electric Light Scythes, but explosions also rang out from the breach from time to time.

These Krieg soldiers' charge was intended to cover a Krieg combat engineer as he shoved a Melta Bomb into the narrow head-enclosure of the Crystal Death Servant.

When an Electric Light Scythe pierced the abdomen of this Krieg combat engineer, he activated the Melta Bomb at the very last moment of his life; 5 seconds later.

The massive body of this Crystal Death Servant was vaporized by the Melta Bomb, leaving behind only the hardest energy crystals of its outer shell.

At this time, at the city gate of the Third Defense Zone.

Ten War Dog Space Marines, taking advantage of the fact that most of the Huotipaitai had their attention drawn by the soldiers opening holes in the city wall, quickly broke through from the front of the city gate.

"Hahaha! Nothing beats a Melta Bomb for opening a city gate quickly! Awesome!"

Fenongqiu was the first to charge from the city gate into the Outer City of the Third Defense Zone; he had just passed through the breach when he saw a Crystal Death Servant charging toward him.

"What the f***! Coming straight at me?"

Facing the Crystal Death Servant charging at him, Fenongqiu quickly activated the chainaxe in his hand.

Although the Crystal Death Servant charged very quickly, Fenongqiu relied on his superhuman reaction speed to swing his chainaxe and hack at the Crystal Death Servant.

"Clang!"

The chainaxe collided with the Electric Light Scythe, sending out red sparks; the joints of Fenongqiu's Power Armor hummed, and his free arm smashed fiercely into the back carapace of the Crystal Death Servant.

The energy crystals on the back of the Crystal Death Servant were gradually smashed; the Crystal Death Servant let out a hiss, and seeing this, Fenongqiu took the opportunity to lift his knee and shatter the Crystal Death Servant's joint.

The off-balance Crystal Death Servant began to tip sideways; Fenongqiu pushed the fallen Crystal Death Servant away with force and drew his bolter to aim at the Crystal Death Servant's head.

"Bang!"

A bolter round shattered the head of this Crystal Death Servant, and the headless corpse of the Crystal Death Servant slowly collapsed to the ground.

There were still other Zerg Aliens behind, so Fenongqiu began to swing his chainaxe rapidly, growling in his throat.

"For the Emperor! For the Lord of Red Sand! Kill!!!"

"Fenongqiu, forget about these small fry! Let's go destroy those Alien turrets firing plasma bombs up there first!"

As Randall passed through the breach, he saw Fenongqiu excitedly hacking and slashing at Aliens and called out to remind him.

"Hahaha, don't worry about it."

The 10 War Dog Space Marines quickly passed through the city gate breach, and seeing the Human soldiers engaged in a firefight with a large number of Aliens, Randall quickly led his squad members to head up toward the city wall.

As soon as Randall climbed onto the city wall, he saw three Huotipaitai firing plasma bombs outward.

"Fire! Start dealing with these Alien turrets!"

Saying this, Randall raised his bolter and aimed at these Huotipaitai.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

A series of bolter rounds shattered the Huotipaitai that were firing plasma bombs, and some blue plasma splashed onto the ground, steaming up a cloud of white smoke.

"These Alien turrets are growing rapidly!"

Kasimier's bolter shattered two Huotipaitai, and shell casings constantly ejected from the bolter, the sound of the casings hitting the ground being exceptionally crisp.

"What the f***, they really are."

Fenongqiu suddenly felt a bodily warning and quickly performed an evasive maneuver; a blue plasma bomb struck the spot where he had just been standing.

He saw a plasma-gun bug emerge from the side and fire at Fenongqiu.

Fenongqiu swept his chainaxe horizontally, cutting the plasma-gun bug in half, and purple-black viscera splattered into the steaming crater.

"Keep moving!"

He crushed the still-twitching Zerg head underfoot, and the Power Armor's Servo System emitted a hum of overload.

"We have to find where the Aliens are drawing their energy from. Eric! Have you found the Alien Energy Node?"

Randall growled in the communication channel, then used his chainaxe to chop a Huotipaitai in two; some blue plasma splashed onto Randall's chest plate, burning pits into the chest armor.

"Give me some time!"
