Chapter 311: Consumption

Boom!

As the vanguard of the corpse tide entered the range, the major mercenary groups were of course unceremonious and immediately opened fire.

The bombing of the hand cannon and the strafing of the ripper rifle took over, and the zombies rushing in front fell one after another.

The members of the third-level mercenary group are definitely the elite among the mercenaries, and last night, they just experienced a war of millions of corpses.

In such a battlefield now, for these mercenary groups, there is really not much pressure, and they even feel more relaxed.

Of course, this is not their illusion, it is indeed the case.

On the one hand, it is because the corpse tide of 20,000 zombies has a zombie density that cannot be compared with that of a million-level corpse tide.

On the other hand, because it is daytime, and it is also the noon time period when the sun is the most blazing, the combat power of these zombies has dropped by more than 20% compared to usual.

Of course, there is one thing that cannot be compared with yesterday's war.

That is the current ammunition, they are all prepared by themselves, and the number is still limited.

This caused these mercenary groups to not dare to consume so recklessly.

For example, when bombing with hand cannons, they not only have to choose the place with the most zombies, but also discuss it with the team next door, so as not to waste two cannonballs landing in the same place.

Even when shooting with a tearer rifle, a shuttle of bullets passed by, and the pressure was relieved a little, and then it had to be switched to the burst mode, and the shot was fired.

Even those combat robots, all turned on the melee mode at this time, and slashed with big knives instead of firing machine guns.

In this case, they save ammunition, but the efficiency of killing loss will naturally decrease.

Lin Xinghai stood on the top floor of the shopping mall, watching this scene with a calm expression. Although the limited ammunition would limit some of the performance of the major mercenary groups, it was enough to deal with such a scene.

He didn't even have any intention of intervening.

The battle was fierce, and batches of zombies were harvested, but more zombies joined the battlefield.

Time passed slowly, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour.

Soon the battle lasted for a full hour. At this time, the major mercenary groups were still fighting fiercely on the first front, and the corpse tide had not been able to break through this line of defense.

But Lin Xinghai had to order to retreat, because the zombie corpses piled up outside the defense line were already as high as a hill, and the zombies behind climbed over the "corpse mountain" and rushed from top to bottom, the mercenaries below the defense line would attack It would be a lot harder to kill.

As the retreat order was issued, the mercenary groups retreated in an orderly manner under the cover of artillery fire.

In the temporary command post, Lin Xinghai looked at a soldier in charge of intelligence collection and asked, "How many zombies have been killed so far? How are our casualties?"

"Report, sir, a total of 82,832 zombies were killed. 8 were injured, 1 was killed, and 2,080 combat robots were destroyed." The soldiers quickly reported.

Lin Xinghai rubbed his forehead. Now the number of zombies they have killed has exceeded the maximum corpse tide estimated by the staff.

And it's far from the end, and there are still more than 50,000 corpses besieging their sentinel outside.

Moreover, the three "hunters" were still roaring continuously, calling for other zombies to come over.

Even in order to speed up the efficiency of calling zombies, the three "hunters" have been separated and roared in three different directions.

"Let the mercenary group below find a way to save bullets. It is estimated that this battle will still be fought."

"If you want to end, either our bullets are gone. Or the zombies around here are all killed by us. Those hunters will no longer be able to summon other zombies." Lin Xinghai sighed softly. Said in one breath.

When the other people in the temporary command post heard it, there was nothing they could do, because it was not a question of whether they could beat him, but to see who could consume the opponent first.

"That's right." Lin Xinghai seemed to have thought of something, and ordered: "The mechas of the major mercenary groups are all important combat power, don't let them idle, take advantage of the switch of defense now, let me go out and kill one. Bo, fighting with cold weapons can save me a wave of bullets."

As the order was issued, one after another mecha rushed out from the shopping mall at the clearing point.

At first, everyone didn't feel that there was anything. After all, it was a very common phenomenon for mechas to come out to kill corpses, especially the weak first- and second-level mercenary groups. This scene often occurs.

But at this time, as more and more mechas rushed out, an emotion called shock gradually filled the hearts of everyone.

You must know that they have 20 mercenary groups here, some of which are 15 third-level mercenary groups, and one mercenary group has five mechas. There are 75 mechas here alone.

In addition to the remaining second-level mercenary groups, and a few mechas from the Quick Response Unit, at this time, there were hundreds of mechas rushing out.

Each mecha weighs more than ten tons, and hundreds of mechas are charging together. Just the rumbling sound of stepping on the ground is like an overwhelming feeling.

"This is really spectacular. I mentioned before that the military should set up a mecha brigade. Unfortunately, the funds for expanding the shelter were not enough at that time, and this matter is over Really Unexpectedly, I can see it here today, if we pulled up a team of mechas like this when the corpse wave broke out last night, maybe we wouldn’t have to fight so hard.” Zhang Yue said with a look of emotion.

Lin Xinghai looked at hundreds of mechas and rushed into the corpse tide, just like an elephant rushing into an ant's nest. He could trample a few zombies to death with one foot, and he could kill ten zombies with one horizontal slash with his weapon. A few zombies.

Hundreds of mechas are added together, and the efficiency of killing zombies is not much slower than that of more than 5,000 mercenaries.

"If you can really form such a mecha team, the combat power is indeed terrible. But in the situation last night, it is impossible to pull up such a mecha team." After watching for a while, Lin Xinghai shook his head.

"Yesterday's defense line was very tight. If the mechas of these mercenary groups are still dispatched, believe it or not, the defense line will collapse within half an hour."

"As for the creation of a mecha team today, it is because the entire mercenary guild, more than half of the third-level mercenary groups, are here. If it is normal, how could such a scene occur."

"What's more, in the face of such a large corpse tide, mechas can only be used as a backup force. After all, driving mechas is too heavy for perception, and it is impossible to maintain long-term battles for several hours." Lin Xinghai said.

Zhang Yue opened his mouth, but found that what Lin Xinghai said was right and could not refute at all.

In the 15 minutes of the mecha fighting, Lin Xinghai let them back down. The important power of mechas must be maintained in good condition.

And with these 15 minutes of respite, the state of the mercenaries has also improved a lot.

But as the corpse tide reached the second line of defense, the battle fell into a state of anxiety.
