The artifacts of the heavens on the tip of the tongue

Chapter 12 Water Depth
Time passed, the blood sun set in the west, the sky became darker again, and the gray fog became thicker and thicker, almost to the point where you could hardly see your fingers.

On the edge of the cliff, Captain Zhao and his team were preparing to evacuate Donghai City.

After leaving the cliff, two soldiers walked in the front holding the fog lamp with strong light. This is the fog lamp specially researched by the Academy of Sciences for the gray fog area, but it can only illuminate the range of no more than 10 meters.

Ten meters away, buildings, green trees, and street lamps were indistinct. In the eyes of the nervous crowd, every shadow seemed to hide a terrifying monster.

"The whole team maintains a good tactical formation, and everyone is careful. Pay special attention to the top of the head and the bottom of the feet. Don't give the parasitic beast a chance to break through your defense."

Through the thick glass on the helmet, Captain Zhao's voice was very dull, as if he was talking into an iron bucket.

The 24-member team was divided into 6 groups. Captain Zhao and other 5 groups of 20 people were fully armed and advanced in a compound inclined search formation. Each group covered each other and other groups at the same time.

Their miniature submachine guns are safely mounted on their arms, ready to fire at dangerous targets at any time.

In the middle are four technical soldiers. Because they have to carry search tools and communication cables, they can only rely on the standard pistols in their hands for protection.

In the process of moving forward, the technical soldier who was resisting the communication cable felt that the cable behind him was being dragged by something, and his body was staggered, and he almost fell to the ground.

Liu Shaohui, the captain of the technical corps, scolded in a low voice: "Zhu Chengyuan, what's wrong with you? You can't even walk?!"

Zhu Chengyuan, the technical soldier who was scolded, argued aggrievedly, "It's not my fault, something was pulling the cable just now."

Liu Shaohui was shocked when he heard the words, and hurriedly called Captain Zhao Changhe, who led the team, "Captain Zhao, there is a situation!"

Zhao Changhe, who was behind the fog lights, made a gesture of assembly, and the five escorting soldier groups immediately assembled to protect the technical soldiers in the middle of the plum blossom formation.

Zhao Changhe walked quickly to Liu Shaohui's side, and asked nervously, "What's going on, what's the matter?"

Liu Shaohui replied in a low voice: "Something is attacking the cable."

The team led by Zhao Changhe had two purposes in entering the misty area. One was to look for possible survivors, and the other was to lay communication cables and build a temporary communication network with other teams.

These two tasks are equally important, and the second task is even more important than the first task.

Therefore, Zhao Changhe was also very nervous when he heard that the cable was attacked, but at the same time he was very confused, "What will attack the cable, it is a dead thing, and animals from other worlds cannot parasitize on the cable. What are they attacking cables for?"

"Be careful, there is no big mistake, or send someone..."

Before Liu Shaohui finished speaking, the cable on the ground was pulled suddenly, and Zhu Chengyuan, who was resisting the cable, was pulled directly to the ground.

"Quick! Zhu Chengyuan, loosen the cable!"

The cable has been laid for a long time. Under the action of its own weight and ground friction, it takes a lot of force to drag it so violently. At least three or a few people will definitely not be able to do it.

The situation is not obvious, no matter what is pulling the cable in the fog, its force is very strong, and correspondingly very dangerous.

Zhu Chengyuan was very nervous and afraid at first, and after falling down, his hand movements became clumsy, and he couldn't untie the cable even in a hurry.

Another great force came from the gray mist, dragging Zhu Chengyuan forward together with the cables on his body.

Liu Shaohui and the other two technicians dropped their pistols to grab the cable, trying to hold back the monster on the opposite side and help Zhu Chengyuan buy time to get out of the predicament.

But the force on the other side was too great, the three of them were dragged staggered and fell, dragged and slid on the ground like a bunch of candied haws.

Zhao Changhe ordered resolutely: "The whole team stands on guard, and no one is allowed to go up to help. Liu Shaohui, you three let go!"

While Liu Shaohui was kicking on the ground, trying to find a point of strength to slow down the drag, he turned back angrily and shouted: "No, I can't give up on my team members!"

"Don't give up!" Zhao Changhe scolded sternly: "With such great power, the opposite side must be the mother's body. If you don't let go, are you going to die?!"

"Ah?!" Liu Shaohui trembled when he heard the word "matrix", and lost all strength in his hand, and could no longer hold the cable that was being dragged at an increasing speed.

"You can't, let go, I'll save people!"

Zhao Changhe clenched the submachine gun in his hand, and quickly followed behind Zhu Chengyuan who was being dragged away.

"Save me, Captain Zhao save me, Captain Liu save me..."

The cable was dragged into the gray mist, Zhu Chengyuan's frantic cries quickly weakened, and Zhao Changhe, who was following behind, was nowhere to be seen. Everyone in the team felt extremely distressed.

The one with the heaviest heart was Liu Shaohui who had no choice but to let go. He slumped on the ground and muttered to himself: "It's my fault, it's all my fault. I should have asked Cheng Yuan to put down the cable as soon as possible."

A soldier came over and patted Liu Shaohui on the shoulder to comfort him and said, "It's not your fault, I really don't blame you, Captain Liu."

Liu Shaohui suddenly stood up from the ground, beat his chest several times, cheered up and shouted: "Everyone, be careful!
If there is a mother in front, there will definitely be a large group of alien parasitic octopus larvae and a large number of parasitic alien beasts guarding the area. If we don't deal with it carefully, what will happen..."

Before he finished his dejected words, there were waves of strange and terrifying whistling sounds around him.

"Parasitic beasts, group of parasitic beasts, everyone be careful!"

After Liu Shaohui warned his teammates loudly, he turned sideways and listened carefully. Sure enough, he heard a large, fine rustling sound among the low roars of the parasitic beasts.

"There are many alien parasitic octopus larvae above our heads. We must not let them break through the protective clothing!"

His second warning was too late, at least a hundred parasitic octopus larvae fell from the building walls, green trees, and lampposts above their heads, and then were tightly attached to the soldiers' helmets with suction cups on and on protective clothing.

Most of the soldiers were lucky, the alien parasitic octopuses couldn't break through the special fully enclosed protective clothing and hurt them.

But there were also a few soldiers who panicked because they had never encountered such a situation before. Some accidentally fell and broke the glass of their helmets, and some were torn out of the gaps in their protective clothing by the parasitic beasts that suddenly appeared around them... …

Those fist-sized parasitic octopus larvae took the opportunity to get into the soldiers' helmets, sealed the soldiers' noses and eyes with their arms and legs, and burrowed into the soldiers' mouths to parasitize when they opened their mouths to cry for pain.

Even if some soldiers still have the rationality to know that they cannot open their mouths, their noses are sealed and they cannot breathe.

At this moment, those parasitic beasts in the distance also rushed over quickly under the hail of bullets.

The submachine guns in the hands of the soldiers were powerful, but they didn't do much.

The parasitic beasts are not afraid of bullets at all, unless the bullet hits their mouth directly, killing the parasitic octopus larvae parasitic there.

Otherwise, even if all their hands and feet are broken, the alien parasitic octopus will still come out and attack with another target.

In just a moment, the team of 24 people lost 2 people and killed 7 people, falling into dire straits.
