Chapter 826: Enemy at the Gate
Chapter 826: Enemy at the Gate
General Feng was shocked to learn from the assassins who had escaped that Qin Zhong had actually stopped the minotaur alone.
Because in his opinion, although Qin Zhong is very strong, there is definitely a big gap between him and the Minotaur. What's more, the Minotaur is surrounded by many biological weapons to assist him.
Therefore, when General Feng learned that Qin Zhong was going to stop the Minotaur alone, he felt that this was a dead end. There was a high probability that Qin Zhong would die, and the Minotaur would also suffer heavy damage from Qin Zhong's dying counterattack.
Even before Qin Zhong returned, General Feng secretly discussed with Xu Li about the issue of whether the original Tiangang personnel should stay or go, and how to adjust the subsequent defensive battle if Qin Zhong did not return for a long time.
What surprised him and Xu Li was that when the sky was getting light, Qin Zhong was not only alive, but also returned to the base safely.
God knows how surprised General Feng and Xu Li were when they heard Qin Zhong's voice from the communicator.
Because he understood that Qin Zhong was able to return safely from the pursuit and blockade of the Minotaur and numerous biological weapons, and his combat effectiveness was definitely far beyond his expectations.
Although Qin Zhong's strength is more beneficial to this defensive battle, overall, it is an unstable factor for the entire Kyoto government.
Of course, all this flashed through General Feng's mind and was quickly hidden in his heart.
The reason is very simple. Regardless of whether Qin Zhong will become an enemy of the Kyoto government in the future, at least he is not an enemy at present.
Moreover, the Minotaur and many biological weapons are not far away, so they cannot fight among themselves, otherwise the monsters will only benefit from it.
In today's crisis-ridden situation, if internal strife really breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Hey, isn't this General Feng?"
Looking at the smiling General Feng, Qin Zhong tilted his head and said unhappily, "Are you really worried about me, or are you worried that I'm not dead?"
Qin Zhong was indeed very angry at the moment. After all, the one that had just locked onto him was an automatic defense gun that was said to be able to penetrate even main battle tanks.
Moreover, in addition to those automatic defense guns, the ten novel-shaped laser cannons on the wall also made him feel oppressed.
Although Qin Zhong was confident that with his metal body, he would not be fatally hit even if he could not avoid these attacks, the feeling of being locked by a weapon still made him furious.
To the extent that, he was speaking with sarcasm at this moment, completely disregarding whether General Feng would start a war with him out of embarrassment.
"Haha, Brother Qin, you're joking. How could I wish you death?"
Hearing Qin Zhong's explosive response, Feng Yuan simply smiled faintly and said calmly, "After all, you mentioned before that there are those M-shaped mutant zombies that can imitate humans, so I am just being cautious. Besides, I have heard about the Minotaur, and I think the general attack is imminent. At this point, we are even more like comrades fighting side by side!"
"Oh really?"
Looking at Feng Yuan, who was beaming with joy, Qin Zhong was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Perhaps I am too sensitive. I hope General Feng will forgive me!"
"Hey, it's too formal to say all this, just talk it out!"
Feng Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I came here this time just to hear Brother Qin's assessment of this minotaur's abilities. After all, among all of us, you are the only one who has fought against it."
……
"The high-level biological weapon that arrived this time is a minotaur. It's an extremely cunning and powerful fellow."
Qin Zhong's expression darkened at the mention of the high-level biological weapon. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "This creature is enormous, nearly twenty meters tall, wielding a massive axe about thirty meters long. Its strength is immense, capable of demolishing houses with a single hand and hurling entire floors like pebbles. Even I, after encountering a monster like this, paid a heavy price to escape."
"Not a small price?"
After hearing Qin Zhong's words, Feng Yuan and the others looked at him suspiciously, then asked, "How does this guy attack? Also, you said it was cunning, how cunning is it?"
"I once attacked it from mid-air, and it retaliated by grabbing Slayers or large rocks and throwing them at me. Of course, I can't rule out the possibility that it's hiding its strength, because that guy is so cunning."
Speaking of the minotaur's cunning, Qin Zhong snorted angrily and said through gritted teeth, "When this guy attacked me, he commanded 800 bone-eating worms to quietly surround me, then sprayed me all at once, trying to kill me. Fortunately, I had a trick up my sleeve, and I finally managed to escape the encirclement of 800 bone-eating worms. You may see that I'm fine now, but my energy has been reduced by at least half, or even two-thirds."
Qin Zhong did not hide his own injuries and even exaggerated them on purpose.
He did this not only because he hoped that General Feng would relax his guard against him, but also because he hoped that General Feng and others would fully realize the powerful combat capability of the Minotaur.
After all, if the Minotaur led the biological army of Demon Mountain in an all-out attack, General Feng and his men would be the main force in the confrontation.
If they do not take the enemy seriously or even underestimate them, the entire base may suffer damage beyond imagination.
At that time, even the slightest change could lead to a more serious situation, which was not what Qin Zhong wanted.
"so smart?"
Feng Yuan's face changed several times when he heard Qin Zhong's words. He was not worried that Qin Zhong would lie to him, because he would know whether it was a mule or a horse once the Minotaur appeared.
What he is worried about now is whether the base’s existing defense capabilities can repel the attack of the biological army.
If not, should he abandon the entire base and retreat with Xue Lingxue, or simply reveal his trump card and kill the Minotaur completely in one fell swoop?
But if he reveals his trump card, what will Qin Zhong do? Should he kill him as well?
Thinking of this, Feng Yuan couldn't help but feel a headache and couldn't make up his mind for a while.
However, the cruel reality did not give Feng Yuan much time to think, because before he could figure it out, the Minotaur had already come to kill him with its biological army.
"Enemy approaching!"
Hearing the sentry's almost miserable scream, Feng Yuan and Qin Zhong immediately put aside their thoughts and focused all their attention on the perimeter of the base, preparing for battle.
When Feng Yuan, Qin Chong and others came to the wall and looked out, they saw that in the reflection of the morning sun, black shadows like a swarm of locusts had emerged from the end of the horizon.
The entire biological army, with a large number of killers as the vanguard, not only charged forward to clear the way, but also destroyed all obstacles blocking the way for the subsequent troops.
A large number of low-rise residential buildings collapsed under the impact and gnawing of countless killers. The gray smoke and dust caused by the collapse of countless buildings turned into a long black dust dragon, covering most of the sky.
And behind the endless stream of killers were hundreds of white, tender, and gigantic bone-eating worms.
These ugly-looking, maggot-like monsters, as if magnified countless times, moved forward quickly under the push and shove of thousands of killers.
Qin Zhong couldn't help but frown slightly as he watched the dark green pus that occasionally dripped from the corners of the bone-eating worms' mouths onto the ground, corroding the ground into holes.
You know, it was this kind of venom that almost destroyed his entire calf. Thinking about it now, he still feels a dull pain in his calf.
