Chapter 170 - 170 Why Do You Look So Excited At Night?
170 Why Do You Look So Excited At Night?
Seeing that these terrifying things did not chase after them, they heaved a sigh of relief.
“Any casualties?”
Someone stood up and asked.
However, no one spoke.
After all, most of the people who came to scout this time had come alone.
Zhou Wenjie quietly walked to the side and counted the mercenaries who ran out. There were still 26 of them.
In other words, it was unknown if two mercenaries had died inside or deliberately stayed in the dense forest.
After all, some people had strange abilities and could even survive the beast tide ~
Seeing that no one spoke, the person who had just asked walked towards the temporary camp.
However, on the way, Zhou Wenjie heard some familiar mercenaries talking about what they had seen in the dense forest.
There was nothing special about it, but he concluded that no one present seemed to have seen the two beasts that appeared inside.
After the group returned to the camp, they immediately began to report the news to their respective mercenary groups.
Wang Zhen looked at Zhou Wenjie who had returned and heaved a sigh of relief.
“How’s it going?”
Iron Axe, the Ma brothers, and the remaining seven mercenaries could not help but look at Zhou Wenjie.
Zhou Wenjie told him what he had just seen, including the two people who had “stayed” in the dense forest.
Wang Zhen touched his chin and immediately walked towards the army’s camp.
“Please inform the officer. I have something to report.”
Wang Zhen’s idea was very simple. He wanted to use the information he had learned to see if he could exchange it for the army’s favor.
After hearing Zhou Wenjie say that no one had seen the beasts inside, he already had an ominous feeling.
Looking at Wang Zhen, the guard guarding the door went in to report.
After a while, he came over and brought Wang Zhen into the camp.
The other mercenaries with the same thoughts were about to come over when they saw that Wang Zhen had already beaten them to it.
They all cursed their bad luck.
After entering the camp, Wang Zhen saw the officer who had come out to give them missions very casually.
“What kind of things?”
Hong Zhijun looked at the mercenary in front of him with a level six aura and became slightly more serious.
After all, strength was the root of everything.
“Hello, sir. I’m Wang Zhen, the commander of the Tomahawk Mercenary Group.”
After a simple introduction, Wang Zhen explained what Zhou Wenjie had seen and heard.
Hong Zhijun immediately frowned when he heard this.
“You’re saying that those vine people run very quickly?”
“Moreover, a green bird with a human face on its abdomen appeared?”
Wang Zhen nodded.
“Yes, my brother saw it with his own eyes.”
Hong Zhijun rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
Those vines were clearly very slow in the day!
Otherwise, Chen Fei, Bei Yun, and the others might not have been able to come out.
“Call Bei Yun over.”
Two minutes later, Bei Yun walked over with Hong Zhijun’s deputy.
“Bei Yun, tell me how fast those vines were during the day.”
“Vice Commander, it’s about the same speed as ordinary people walking.”
Hong Zhijun nodded and looked at Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen understood what this meant and said,
“It’s very close to a level one speed-type mutant. In any case, it can run.”
Hearing this, Bei Yun looked at the burly man in front of him in surprise.
He was also a speed-type mutant and knew how fast level one was.
If it was close to level one, its speed would not be considered slow.
However, those vines did look very slow during the day.
Hearing these two completely different descriptions, Hong Zhijun rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
It seemed that he could only choose to clean it during the day.
“Alright, I’ll trouble you with this.”
“Help me make an announcement again. Don’t go there again tonight. Remember to restrain your subordinates.”
Wang Zhen nodded and then left the temporary camp.
Hong Zhijun continued to sit in his seat, wondering what caused the vine man to be so different from day to night.
Although mutated beasts were more aggressive at night, he had never heard of any mutated beast that could undergo such a huge change ~
Just as he was rubbing his glabella, Hong Zhijun suddenly sensed traces of vibration from the ground of the camp.
Hong Zhijun froze every day and immediately got up from his chair. He stood on the ground and sensed carefully.
After about five seconds, Hong Zhijun suddenly slammed the alarm switch in front of him.
“Enemy attack!”
“Be on guard!”
As the sharp alarm sounded, Wang Zhen, who had just walked out of the camp and met up with the Tomahawk Mercenary Group team, turned to look at the camp.
The other mercenaries also looked at the army’s temporary camp in confusion.
“What’s wrong?”
“Why is the alarm ringing?”
“Are there mutated beasts coming?”
“Get the people with detection abilities!”
When Zhou Wenjie heard this urgent alarm, he frowned and looked at Wang Zhen.
“Boss, what’s the situation?”
“I don’t know, but something must have gone wrong. Look at the soldiers at the entrance of the camp. They seem to have already begun to close their doors.”
When everyone heard this, they looked at the camp door that was temporarily used as a steel plate.
Just as Wang Zhen was wondering if he should ask, he suddenly heard a faint rumbling sound in front of him.
“Something’s wrong!”
“Listen!”
Although it was very noisy outside because of these mercenaries,
However, Zhou Wenjie, Iron Axe, and the others still heard some movement.
The Ma brothers’ Mark also tilted his ear and frowned.
“It’s a beast tide! The beast tide is here!”
Before they could make a judgment, an experienced mercenary with an investigation-type ability called out the source of this commotion.
Hearing that it was a beast tide, the mercenaries present were a little flustered.
Everyone was indeed not weak.
However, that was only in a one-on-one situation!
If they encountered a beast tide, even if it was a level one beast tide, not to mention tens of thousands, as long as there were a few thousand, it would be enough to make them suffer.
From the information brought back by the mercenaries who had investigated the news just now, this was clearly not a level one beast tide…
“Boss Wang, what should we do?”
Marvin panicked.
He had the guts to come out and search for treasures, and he was very bold.
But that didn’t mean Marvin had the courage to face the Beast Tide head-on.
Wang Zhen looked at the temporary camp of the army beside him and slowly took out a big axe from his spatial bracelet.
“What should we do? Of course we can only fight!”
“Where can we run to?”
“Besides, I don’t believe those soldiers will gain anything if we die.
“These people will definitely attack.”
Iron Axe also held his axe and nodded heroically.
“That’s right. F*ck them!”
“What’s there to be afraid of!”
There were also many mercenaries who had the same thoughts as Wang Zhen.
After all, everyone knew that if they ran now, they would only die faster.
Unless one was a speed-type mutant.
In the temporary camp, Hong Zhijun glanced at Wu Yan, who did not look too panicked.
Then, he said,
“Open the door and get the Ironback Pigs to line up. Don’t ride this time. Just get the Ironback Pigs to resist the first wave of the beast tide.”
“If the scale of the beast tide is not big, as long as we resist the first wave, we can deal with the rest.”
“We can’t let these mercenaries die outside for nothing. Life is very important.”
With that said, Hong Zhijun immediately began to help Bei Yun.
Outside the camp, Wang Zhen, who was already prepared, suddenly saw the army’s temporary camp open the door.
At this moment, he could even vaguely see the figure of the beast tide in front of him.
Logically speaking, since the army had decided to “give up” on them, why did they open the door?
Could it be…
Then, Wang Zhen and the others saw teams rush out of the camp.
He counted. There were about a hundred of them.
Before these mercenaries could figure out why the army had asked these people to come out, they saw pigs suddenly appear beside the hundreds of soldiers at the intersection?!
“Ironback Pigs?! So many?”
Looking at these Ironback Pigs, Iron Axe was the first to react to these things.
