Monarch of Evernight: Fifty-Nine Mine Raid

bsp;The four aerostats of the Red Scorpions clearly came into view in the blink of an eye. Two of them were high-speed troop carriers, which were large enough to accommodate two Red Scorpion brigades. In other words, their combat capabilities The strength exceeds that of a main division of the empire.

Zhang Zizi frowned again when he saw this formation. The large scale of Red Scorpion's dispatch shows that the difficulty level of the mission is high. Now he is surrounded by a group of untouchable noble ladies from aristocratic families. If Red Scorpion has a combat mission in the nearby area, it is difficult to say that it will not affect Black Current City.

The Red Scorpion warship drove directly to the aerospace landing field in Blackstream City. Without landing, it opened the hatch directly at a hundred meters in the air, and then batches of Red Scorpion warriors pulled the rappelling ropes and jumped come out.

They fell almost like a free fall. They only pulled the rope when they were close to the ground and slowed down slightly. In the blink of an eye, more than two hundred Red Scorpion warriors were on the ground. Many high-ranking warriors also carried huge weapons and supply boxes in their hands, some of which were even taller than their men.

With just one move, the Red Scorpion Legion showed its elite.

Although Zhang Zizi felt quite uncomfortable, he had to admit that the soldiers of the Third Legion he led were not even remotely inferior to the Red Scorpions. Once such elite troops appear on the battlefield in an organized manner, they will become a force that can turn the tide of the war.

The two groups of Red Scorpion warriors scattered around and instantly controlled the airship field and various strategic points facing Blackstream City. The man who finally jumped out of the hatch did not use a rappel, but hung directly in the air. The star on his shoulder straps shone brightly, and he turned out to be a brigadier general!

After everything was ready on the ground, the door of the hovering high-speed transport ship opened wide, and a huge metal box more than ten meters long was pushed out from the inside. It was pulled by dozens of slings and slowly lowered to the ground.

Zhang Ziyi's eyes narrowed. Could it be that the Red Scorpions from the two brigades came here just to protect this thing?

Song Zining suddenly said: "Hey, Sir, aren't you from the Broken Wing Angel? I'll go find out which combat camp they are from later."

In response to Song Zining's rude instructions, Wei Potian was rarely sarcastic and just asked: "Which battalion did Qianye belong to?"

"How do I know?" Before Wei Potian could get angry, Song Zining said calmly: "These are all trivial matters. There is nothing you and I can do. I just sent him a message."

Wei Potian fell silent, his brows filled with solemnity. Song Zining didn't say anything anymore and quietly watched the busy Red Scorpion warriors outside the city. The logo of the Special Elite Legion is very easy to identify. On the pure black imperial uniform, the collar and placket are embroidered with scarlet red, and there is a striking red scorpion pattern on the upper arm.

The Black Current War Zone is gradually becoming turbulent.

Qianye was sitting on a rock, overlooking the valley below.

The valley is artificially excavated with layers of winding roads at its edges to accommodate heavy-duty trucks. At the bottom of the valley, several metal monsters tens of meters high were spitting steam, using giant shovels several stories high to dig into the ground. With each shovel, tons of black stone were pushed out.

This is an open-pit black stone mine, and its output ranks among the top three in the earl territory. Its greatest value lies in its convenient transportation and open-pit mining, so it can easily use large steam machinery. Although the mine is large, there are not many slave miners. Most of them are technicians who operate and repair mining equipment.

Such an important mine is the heart of Count Stuka. Despite its location within the earl's direct jurisdiction, Stuka sent his nephew, a third-rate Nerubian Viscount, to guard it.

Qianye observed silently for a while, and after memorizing the terrain and the distribution of the garrisoned troops, he turned around and disappeared into the vast hills.

In a valley dozens of kilometers away from the mine, Dark Fire has set up a secret camp. Hundreds of elite warriors are resting and practicing.

Qianye returned to the camp and ordered: "Eat in four hours and then set off. Launch the attack at twelve o'clock at noon."

In the short daylight period of the Evernight Continent, it is said that the power of noon and dawn is the strongest, and it is also the rest time for many dark races, especially the lower-class people who have not completely shed their beast form.

At noon, the originally noisy mine became a little quieter. Only a few slaves were still doing some chores, and the mining trucks stopped. Driving this steel behemoth requires at least a level three warrior.

At the outskirts of the mine, the guards have become lazy, and many servant spiders are lying motionless in the center of the spider web. They are actually sleeping.

This mine has been peaceful for more than ten years, so long that the guards have almost forgotten what war is.

A two-meter-tall servant spider lay with its limbs folded in the middle of two railway tracks. There were extended spider webs below and in front and behind its body. The white mist covered an area of ​​several hundred meters in radius. It was the master of this defense zone. Wherever the spider web goes, it controls the area, guarding the core route to the mine.

Qianye’s figure appeared on the top of a hill not far away. He weighed the Force grenade in his hand, then took a deep breath and threw it hard.

The grenade streaked across the sky, flew hundreds of meters, and landed right in front of the servant spider. The flying grenade was reflected in the servant spider's compound eyes, but it moved slowly and failed to react in time. At this time, it actually just woke up from a deep sleep and was confused.

The grenade fell, penetrated the spider web, and hit the rock.

The force grenade that had been set to impact detonation mode suddenly exploded, lifting the servant spider's huge body into the air. After the explosion, another wave of fire spread in all directions.

This is an incendiary grenade. The flame fueled by compressed force is extremely hot and difficult to extinguish. The spider webs were extremely fragile under the flames, and they broke in a blink of an eye. The flying spider threads lifted up with flames, and the fire spread rapidly.

Dozens of dark fire elites appeared behind Qianye. Under the order, some of them quickly assaulted forward, while the rest began to set up anti-aircraft machine guns and other heavy firepower in place.

After the arrangement was completed, Qianye was not in a hurry and signaled that the battle command authority was delegated to each combat unit. He himself lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt refreshed.

This is a pure military stimulant, and it is of medium quality. However, Qianye still misses the taste of the imitations he made in the past, so he was distracted and thought that he must remember to brew some for use when he goes back this time. .

Having just finished smoking a cigarette, Qianye suddenly picked up the eagle strike, took a slight aim, and then pulled the trigger to the end. Hundreds of meters away, a spider demon that had just emerged from its nest suddenly shook its body, and half of its head disappeared.

Qianye threw the unfinished cigarette on the ground, picked up the Eagle Strike, and strode towards the mine.

It was only then that the alarm sounded, which showed how lax the defense of the mine was.

Although guards continued to emerge from various caves, and thousands of small and large servant spiders crawled out all over the mountains and plains, hundreds of dark fire warriors actually pushed forward layer by layer against the opponent's defense line, beating the guards back continuously.

Qianye brought out all the elites. The firepower of this commando was extremely fierce. Incendiary grenades were thrown out as if they were free. The anti-aircraft machine guns never stopped roaring.

Although these conventional firepower has little effect on high-level warriors, it is miraculous in dealing with a large number of fragile cannon fodder.

A sudden earth-shaking roar sounded in the mine, and a spider demon rushed out of its lair. He is also half human and half spider, but is at least half taller than other spider demons. He looks like a spider-shaped chariot.

With the roar, the spider demon rushed towards the Darkfire warriors under a hail of bullets. Large-caliber machine gun bullets were fired at him, but they were all bounced off by the heavy armor. Even the anti-aircraft machine gun failed in vain.

A Darkfire Lieutenant Colonel threw a Force grenade violently, and the landing point was perfect, exactly where the spider demon would step next. After the violent explosion, the lieutenant colonel watched in stunned silence as the terrifying spider demon was blown up only one meter, then landed on the ground, its limbs swiping, and then rushed over as if nothing had happened.

The spider demon was carrying a long-handled battle ax in one hand and a Force rifle in the other, but it seemed that he was not very good at using guns. He only fired a few shots before charging, but he was really not very accurate.

At this time, he was less than 100 meters away from the dark fire warriors' most forward battle line, so he suddenly swung his four-meter-long battle ax, and a blue-black force light swept out in an arc, and the ground was suddenly stirred up into a layer. layer of ripple marks.

Seeing this, the senior Dark Fire officers in front quickly deployed their force defenses, while the weaker warriors hurriedly avoided, but the colorful force shield collapsed at the touch of a touch. Fortunately, the distance between the two sides was still far away. Although the soldiers on the front were forced to retreat, no one was injured.

This is the Viscount of the Spider Demon guarding the mine. Although he is only a third-class Viscount, a Viscount is a Viscount and cannot be dealt with by ordinary human soldiers.

Qianye roared twice, signaling the Dark Fire warriors in front to retreat. He threw his Eagle Strike to the guards around him, pulled out the Dongyue, took long strides, and rushed towards the Viscount of the Spider Demon.

He ran faster and faster, and every step he took would cause the earth to shake. Just looking at the momentum of his running, Qianye's slender and slightly thin body seemed to be heavier than the Spider Demon Viscount.

In the blink of an eye, the two met at the center line. Qianye shouted and flew up. Dongyue swung horizontally and slashed in the middle!

The spider demon roared loudly, raised the battle ax in his hand, and blocked Dongyue with a thick steel ax handle as thick as a bowl. In comparison, Qianye's sword was only half the length of a battle axe, and it seemed that he would be knocked away with just one touch.

However, when the swords and axes met, Viscount Spider Demon suddenly shook his whole body, and his huge body flew up from the ground. He felt the overwhelming power coming from the battle axe, and the ax handle was slowly twisting in front of his eyes. Only then did the spider demon hear the crackling sounds of bone cracking in his arms.

Qianye's face was flushed, and he was a little surprised to see that his sword did not break the battle axe. He let out a hey sound, exhaled a stream of white air, and using his hands, Dongyue bounced up again and slashed out diagonally.

The Spider Demon Viscount's arms were newly injured. The battle ax was bounced off Dongyue as soon as it touched him. He could only watch helplessly as the heavy sword sliced ​​through his waist. Then, the humanoid upper body and the spider body were completely separated, flew high into the air, and fell far into the mine.
