Gate of Apocalypse

Yang Yi's left arm is wearing a pair of metal arm guards, he pressed two times on his left arm, the arm guards immediately emitted a mechanical sound, extended out towards the whole body, transformed into a set of exoskeleton armor with helmet.

And he also took out an energy rifle from his storage equipment.

As for Tina, she is holding two small silver-white short guns in both hands, but the caliber is as big as a hair dryer.

Yang Yi took a big step ahead, while Tina followed closely behind him, his eyes kept wandering around.

The more the two walked forward, the greater the humidity in the air. Water quickly condensed on their bodies exposed to the humid air, dripping off the ground from time to time.

Especially Tina's long brown hair, which was now thoroughly wet on her shoulders.

The location where the two were moved was not far, and the two had walked for only ten minutes before they had reentered the edge of the city.

Although the fog had grown thicker, it had not yet completely obscured the view. Ahead was a small settlement, covered with crowded, ramshackle huts, built up layer by layer with sheets along the terrain, some already collapsed and others crumbling.

The direction of the wind was blowing from the front, and the wind carried the distinct smell of the ocean.

No one gave the order, but both Yang Yi and Tina slowed down at the same time, glanced at each other and slowly ambled down.

Creeping forward to the edge of the shantytown, the two have seen through the fog, the center of the shantytown ahead stands an odd plant.

Obviously, that is the water mist sea tree mentioned in the copy hint.

From the appearance, rather than a plant, it looks more like some kind of anemone like mollusk. It has dozens of soft tentacles sticking out from its cadres, raised high in the surroundings, spraying moist water mist outwards.

Around the water mist sea tree, the nest area, is covered with a head of strange-shaped monsters, looks like a combination of marine life and human, and there are a variety of different species.

In the outermost guard hundreds of monsters are not large, slightly smaller than ordinary people, in addition to a tuna head, can not see any special features.

The monsters further inward are almost all different in shape, or octopus, or swordfish, but also have human limbs and torsos, and much larger. Surrounding the water mist sea tree below, are several nearly two tall, full of explosive muscle monsters, with obvious gill slits on the neck, two eyes through the two long handle extended out of the sides of the head, looks like a hammerhead shark's head.

"Thought it was something great, but it turned out to be just a big humidifier." Yang Yi lowered his voice: "The number of monsters is relatively large, one sniper, one infiltrator, try to postpone the occurrence of the battle for a strike to disengage."

"Understood." Tina nodded and just turned her head to go, but Yang Yi suddenly raised his hand and snatched the double guns from her hands, and threw the energy lance in his own hands into Tina's arms.

"What for?" Tina was stunned.

Although the combatants of Zero City's resident team had all undergone training in various combat styles, there were still tendencies in the direction of strengthening. Comparatively speaking, Yang Yi was more adept at long-range sniping, while Tina was more specialized in close-range alley combat.

After escaping from Zero City, the two soon found themselves kicked out of the team, and after a few short days, could only become temporary combat partners. And all along in the midst of the copy, it was Yang Yi who sniped from the rear for cover while Tina charged forward.

"Switch this time, I'm in front." Yang Yi took hold of the two pistols, weighed them twice in his palm, and said in an unquestionable tone, "You just had a baby, don't leave him without a mother."

"I don't think this copy will be much of a danger, but still ...... thanks." Tina was silent for a moment and nodded her head.

Yang Yi remained in place, while Tina lifted the energy lance and quickly climbed up to a side of the high ground with a short body.

The hot and humid climate of South America makes the vegetation near the city still grow lush as well. Tina carefully hid her body among one from the tropical plants, set up her energy lance and aimed at the center of the nesting area.

"I am already in position." Tina's voice rang out in Yang Yi's ear in the rice feeder: "From your current position 50 meters ahead, there are no enemies. Flip in through the window when you walk to the third row of houses, then leave through the back door on the other side."

"Roger."

Yang Yi replied in a deep voice, bent down, and moved forward quickly with a light and quick pace.

Although there were quite a few fishmen in the shack area, most of them were scattered for the sake of vigilance, and only dozens of the more powerful-looking ones were deadlocked below the water mist sea tree. The area of this shack area is not small, and also filled with a variety of miscellaneous items. Under Tina's guidance, Yang Yi carefully stalked and soon approached the center of the shack area without being discovered.

"There's no way out, they're all occupied." Tina carefully observed the situation below through the scope of her energy lance: "At this distance, there are no more defensive dead ends left."

"Copy that. Provide the best route." Yang Yi lowered his voice to the lowest level.

He hadn't had the luxury of diving all the way to the bottom of the Water Mist Sea Tree without any fighting. Being able to reach such a deep position now, he was already satisfied enough.

There were simply too many monsters to face this time, and if they were forced to kill them head-on, with just the two of them, the danger would be too great. Being able to

"Dash out of the window on your right, fire directly in front of you, then turn right and run full speed towards two o'clock, then ...... wait!"

Tina looked into the scope and suddenly let out a low cry.

"What's wrong ......?"

Yang Yi just opened his mouth to ask a question, already heard a sound of breaking boards.

"Run! You've been spotted!!!"

Tina lowered her voice and darted, while an energy beam shot out from the muzzle and penetrated a fishman.

Yang Yi instinctively deep forward, rolled twice on the ground, while not looking back to the double guns aimed behind him, dead pull the trigger, hit two arcs to.

Behind them, the two fishermen screamed miserably at the same time, and just smashed the boarding of the shack, they were blasted with a series of ping-pong ball-sized light balls, and flew heavily backwards.

"Charge!"

Tina bit her lower lip and kept aiming her scope at one fisherman after another, and every time she pulled the trigger, she saw a fisherman's head explode and fall to the ground.

I don't know if it was the sense of smell or hearing, but the perception of these monsters seemed to be quite keen, to the extent that they found Yang Yi's trail before his own side took the initiative to attack!

Now, the original painstaking infiltration was not only completely meaningless, but even put Yang Yi in the middle of a siege!

The only way was to quickly advance under the Water Mist Sea Tree.

I hope that the radioactive source provided by the copy will take effect fast enough!

The energy lance kept firing, each time locking on the enemy closest to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi had already rushed out of the broken house and ran wildly in the direction of the water mist sea tree, while shaking his arms horizontally, his double guns spilled out two rows of light balls in front of him, exploding in the middle of the fish crowd. The front-most tuna fishermen did not have time to react, has been swept down a piece.

Very weak!

This thought immediately came to Yang Yi's mind.

I just don't know what kind of strength those rarer fish monsters behind would be.

A few double bun sharks were standing below the water mist sea tree, and when they saw Yang Yi rushing out of the house, they immediately let out a series of odd syllables, and the surrounding fishmen immediately spread out in formation, half of them encircled towards Yang Yi, while the other half remained at the side of the water mist sea tree, each of them took out a crossbow made of fish bones from their bodies and aimed far away at Yang Yi.

Yang Yi fiercely side stomped the ground, dodging a wave of crossbow arrows, once again sweeping out a wave of light balls, but this time in the face of the scattered formation, the killing effect is far less than the first wave of surprise attack.

And that wave of crossbow arrows shot on the ground, have burst out a large puff of frost.

"These guys are using magic weapons."

Yang Yi whispered to Tina in the intercom, while dashing into a low shack, and flipped out of the opposite window.

The distance to the water mist sea tree was less than 50 meters!

Yang Yi had just flipped out of the window, and the shack behind him had already been collapsed by a series of frost crossbow arrows, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he rushed along the narrow street towards the inside.

Boom!

The two houses on the side were fiercely overturned, and two double-bun sharkmen rushed towards Yang Yi at the same time.

Yang Yi's face was as heavy as frost, his twin guns fired wildly, light balls blasted past in a series, while his body slid fiercely, passing under the two fishermen's encirclement.

But the skin of the two bun sharks was terribly hard. The energy pistol's ball of light blasted at the surface of the skin, despite causing a patch of burns, the explosive power still failed to completely penetrate the epidermis, only to make them let out a violent roar in unison.

Although the size is huge, but the movement of this double bun shark man does not look bulky in the least. Yang Yi just slid over, before he got up from the fallen state, the two fishmen had already twisted their bodies and swung both arms at the same time.

In the two double bun shark man's arms, each has a long fin. Between swings, the fins broke through the air, cutting out four wind blades that flew straight towards Yang Yi.

In a hurry, Yang Yi dodged three, but was still hit by the last one undershirt, the whole person staggered forward.

Fortunately, the exoskeleton armor level is quite good, just a wind blade did not penetrate, but such an attack if you eat two or three more, I'm afraid it will have to hurt the bones.

The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're getting into.

A beam of light came from far away and hit precisely on the right gill slit of a hammerhead shark behind him. The soft gill slit was not protected by hardened skin and was easily pierced by the beam, exploding in a shower of blood. But the hammerhead shark man's life force seems to be amazingly strong, despite the heavy damage, but did not fall, but reached out and pointed to the direction of the distant Tina, shouted.

Dozens of crossbow arrows under the command of the double bun shark man, at the same time towards the direction of Tina is thrown in the past.

After firing that shot, Tina had already sensed the arrival of counter-fire and leapt up to the next sniper position she'd been eyeing.

But in addition to the long-range fire, those ordinary miscellaneous fishermen had also formed an orderly enveloping formation and rushed toward Tina.

"Yang Yi, retreat. The difficulty of this copy is higher than expected!"

Tina carried her lance and ran fast around the slum, while whispering inside the communicator, "You still have a chance to leave while they are still in the midst of chaos."

"Okay, you retreat first."

Yang Yi replied simply and briefly, while taking out several plasma grenades, pulling the safety off and throwing them out towards the front.

This gang of fish people ...... are not ordinary monsters!

Although he saw the mission description before, he did not put too much emphasis on it, always treating these fish people as the same guys as the common monsters in the previous copies.

But look at their current performance, completely with a clear organization and combat system, and even those gibbering sounds in their mouths, obviously their own language.

These fish people are not some scattered soldiers, but a highly qualified army!

Plasma grenades exploded ahead, the fire engulfed several dodging fishmen, and also cleared a passage for Yang Yi.

Anyway, this copy does not give any punishment for not being able to complete, retreating now is just not getting the completion reward, which is not a big loss.

Two people have been in the copy together these days. Although both were once official combatants of the resident team of Zero City, but such a thin number of people, but still a little too much effort. If they encounter enemies that are difficult to fight, or powerful copy monsters, they will never be ashamed to run away.

Taking advantage of the gap when the plasma mass from the plasma grenade explosion had just cooled down and disappeared, Yang Yi had already rushed out of the encirclement. On the high ground ahead, Tina ran quickly to distance herself from the pursuers behind her while stopping from time to time to provide fire cover for Yang Yi.

But the crossbow arrows behind him were still coming, and the hit rate was bound to drop dramatically with the hasty shooting from a standing position. Tina fired thirteen shots, but only hit five fishermen, and only the lowest-ranking kind of tuna fishermen.

Yang Yi is still running wildly, but the pursuers behind him are getting closer and closer.

Not only that, but more fishermen appeared in front of him, encircling him.

Yang Yi gritted his teeth and once again took out three plasma grenades from his storage equipment, thought about it, stuffed another one back in and threw it behind him.

When they left Zero City, they didn't have much equipment on them. In these later days, the rewards earned were never much either. These plasma grenades were already using one less than the other.

Although the explosion slightly stopped the pursuers behind them, it was never able to completely stop them.

"You go first, I'll turn around and catch up."

Yang Yi leapt onto the roof of a shack and gasped into the transmitter.

"You can't get away even more if I go."

Tina firmly refused, and took out a silk screen as light as cicada wings with her left hand and threw it out behind her. The wire mesh appeared in the air for a second, and then disappeared into thin air.

A few seconds later, several fishermen chasing in the forefront suddenly twitched, stopped in their tracks, a large number of electric sparks emerged from their bodies, and fell to the ground as charcoal.

But the net also flickered a few times light, broke into pieces.

"You stay, is to accompany me to die. If you die, what about your son?" Yang Yi's voice had some rare excitement in it: "Have you forgotten what you told me, no matter what, you have to leave bloodline for Gibbs to come!"

"......" Tina was silent.

"Your husband, the hero of Zero City. Raise your children well." When Yang Yi finished, he reached out and pressed the talker, crushing it to pieces.

And he also stopped and looked at Tina on the distant high ground, before he murmured softly, "Good bye ...... Flower of Rhodea. It was quite pleasant living together with you."

Only at this time, Tina's ears had been left with only the noise of nuisance currents.

She darted a glance at her pursuers behind her, and then looked ahead at Yang Yi who had been almost surrounded by all the retreat, and sighed deeply, with a resolute look in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Yang Yi. I know all. But ...... sorry.

And ...... thank you."

Yang Yi gently dropped his energy pistol and replaced it with two combat swords, his body tensed up and stared dead ahead at the fishermen that were swarming in front of him.

The head of the double bun shark man leading the group, it is the same one that was hit by Tina gill crack before, saw Yang Yi has given up running away, also no longer running to catch up, but stride forward, waving his arm to command the other fish people surrounded.

Although the language is not clear, the face is also very different from the human, but the light of hatred shown in its eyes is more than obvious.

"At least, finish you guy ......"

Yang Yi squeezed the hilt of his sword to death, his gaze fixed on the double bun shark man.

Boom!!!

A missile fell from the sky and smashed into the densest area of the fishmen, also interrupting a strike that Yang Yi was building up to deliver.

A few of the most central fishermen were blown to pieces, and most of the rest who were close by were also affected by the shrapnel and flame waves, emitting odd shrieks and rolling over on the ground.

And what followed was more missiles and beams, spilling a sea of fire on the ground.

The sunlight in the sky, which was slightly blurred by the fog, cast a row of shadows at this moment.

Yang Yi jerked his head up and saw in the sky, ten sentry mechs flying at high speed!

And at the same time, the sentry mechs' loudspeakers were simultaneously amplified to their highest power, roaring out the same sentence in unison.

"Today, Zero City is reborn!"

This roar was full of generosity, full of glorious return, full of iron and blood unyielding!
