“Connect to Wen Yu's communication!”
The communications soldier beside Fang Wenhai, who had just been responsible for issuing combat orders in the central castle, immediately linked to the channel of the communicator in Wen Yu's hand upon hearing Fang Wenhai's words.
The "crackling" sound of static quickly passed, and then fierce sounds of battle along with Wen Yu's voice came through the communicator.
“What’s going on?”
Wen Yu's team was not moving quickly!
Because the total assault of the bipedal lizards was definitely premeditated.
Wen Yu did not know the exact number of bipedal lizards, but just by observing those that kept crawling out from underground, he realized that the number of level four bipedal lizards underground had surpassed all expectations.
Wen Yu even felt that these creatures had completely hollowed out the land beneath the entire demonic city.
After casually blasting a level four bipedal lizard, Wen Yu picked up the communicator that was vibrating incessantly.
“What’s wrong?”
“This is Fang Wenhai. How long until you reach the outpost?”
“Estimated to need nearly three more hours. Our speed is too slow, and there are simply too many bipedal lizards!”
While Wen Yu spoke to Fang Wenhai, his movements did not stop.
His weapon, Pulse, fired bullets rapidly. With Wen Yu's combat state having a physique score of 965, the power of Pulse was terrifying, and as his physical condition improved, the power of his soul attack also reached a horrifying level! Coupled with the enhancement effect of Pulse!
These level four bipedal lizards, as long as they were grazed by Pulse's bullets, could hardly escape the fate of death!
“The outpost needs support... we can’t hold on any longer...”
Hearing this, Wen Yu fell silent.
Once the outpost falls, it would mean that the soldiers waiting outside the outpost would be trapped in the treasure land, after all, the exit to this treasure land was at the outpost.
To get out, they would have to fight their way through a large group of level five bipedal lizards.
And undoubtedly, the difficulty of this act goes without saying.
“The outpost cannot fall. I’m heading back now, but... I have hundreds of soldiers who have retreated from the front line behind me. What will happen to them?”
“I will inform you of the position of the torrent. You first rendezvous with the torrent, let them take these people back to the outpost, and then you set off alone to quickly return to defend!”
“Understood.”
Wen Yu simply responded and directly hung up the communicator. He looked at the location of the torrent team currently reported by the outpost on his tablet and quickly formulated a route.
After a while, as Wen Yu changed direction at the forefront, the entire team of soldiers quickly advanced towards the location of the torrent.
...
Watching more and more bipedal lizards crawling into the outpost from the walls, Fang Wenhai paced back and forth in the large conference room, but had no solution.
At the same time, the situation in the outpost continued to be relayed to the conference room.
“East District Six has fallen, and the remaining soldiers have retreated to East Fifth District. The death toll is incalculable, and many soldiers are trapped in East District Six.”
“West District 13 has fallen, and No. 10 is missing. He must be dead...”
“Northern District Ten, due to the reinforcement of the heavy shield warriors, has currently stabilized the northern front, but the casualties are significant.”
One piece of news after another gathered in Fang Wenhai's hands, only adding to his sense of oppression.
“From the looks of it, perhaps in 20 minutes, all the soldiers in the outpost will be killed, and then the central castle will be breached, preventing any outside reinforcements from entering.”
Hearing the words of the staff officer beside him, Fang Wenhai sighed heavily.
“I have no other options... Without firearms, the strengths of both sides are simply not comparable.”
