Starting from the Planetary Governor Chapter 165: Chapter 137, Beast Slaughter Group (6.4k Subscr

For this very reason, the adventurers used to engage in regular combat with the Green Skin Orcs at distances within a hundred ters.

Between fifty and a hundred ters, the adventurers had so firepower advantage, but the Green Skins were able to rely on their thick hides to charge within fifty ters, at which point exchanging fire was no contest at all.

One of their shots could blow apart a person, while our side's puny guns needed to pour a hundred bullets to kill a single Green Skin, how could we fight like that?

Moreover, once the Green Skins got within fifty ters, aside from shooting, their steps wouldn't stop, and they would charge even closer to take advantage of the high power but low accuracy of their guns.

Or more directly, they'd get into lee range and resolve the battle with cold weapons.

And often by that ti, it was when the human adventurers' morale completely collapsed. Except for the Beast Slaughter Group, who dared to wield big knives and engage in chopping at the Green Skins with an exchange rate of more than five to one, nobody dared to engage these monsters in close combat.

But these new and strange infantry seed a bit different.

Not only did they have the extrely precious rocket launchers, but their rifles still worked effectively at distances beyond a hundred ters.

This was significant.

The orc charging toward this location got hit by at least thirty bullets when it reached fifty ters away, and despite firing two shots, both missed.

Following that, it continued its charge, and when it got within fifty ters, it finally couldn't withstand the frequent hits and fell dead.

The shooters weren't just from this infantry squad; there were two additional infantry squads who had evidently also spotted it and were firing six guns at it.

Li Kexi couldn't help feeling envious.

Envious of the rocket launcher, and of those guns.

At the sa ti, he couldn't help but wonder a bit: where did these strangers co from?

He had extensive connections; he knew most of the nad adventure groups that mingled around Rubbish Town. He had never seen any group equipped like this.

He saw soone waving at him.

Li Kexi hesitated for a mont but still went over.

He asked, "Which group are you from?"

The person waving at him was montarily confused, then quickly responded, "We're not from any adventure group, we are warriors from the New Alliance! I am Sergeant Luke Duffy."

"..."

The amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and Li Kexi for a mont didn't even know what to say.

Sergeant Duffy noticed the armband on his arm and asked, "Are you also from the Beast Slaughter Group?"

"... Yes."

"Then get to the rear as quickly as possible; many of your comrades are regrouping there. We still need your help to put in a joint effort to clean out these filthy Green Skin monsters."

Li Kexi was stunned again.

His resolve to die retreated.

If there was still hope of victory, then indeed he shouldn't die. If possible, he still hoped to see more Green Skin monsters die before his eyes.

"Sergeant Luke Duffy, I'll rember you. I am Li Kexi, captain of the Beast Slaughter Group. May we et again under better circumstances."

"You're the captain?" Duffy was startled, then quickly added, "That's even better! You have to get to the rear then, your brothers still need your leadership."

"You're right."

Li Kexi picked up his rifle and followed the direction Luke Duffy had pointed.

After walking a bit further, intense gunfire and the sound of rocket launchers firing ca from behind him.

He couldn't resist looking back and saw ten soldiers form into three combat squads. They didn't advance further but held their current position. Before them, a group of about twenty Green Skins was approaching.

Li Kexi's heart sank heavily.

Especially seeing that two rocket projectiles thrown at them killed only three Green Skins. Ten soldiers, their distant gunfire raining down, even with focused fire at long range, killed only two.

Fifteen remained!

They had already charged very close.

Within this distance, in just a few seconds, these monsters would rush upon the soldiers' faces. And in the anti, they couldn't even reload their magazines, nor could the rocket launchers be replenished with new ammunition in ti.

Li Kexi was not optimistic about their fate and hesitated whether to turn back and fight alongside them.

Of course, this was not a wise decision, but... they had just saved his life, and now was he to turn his back on them, to live in ignominy?

While he was in the throes of indecision, he heard two rumbling sounds from behind him.

Turning his head, he saw two steel behemoths erge from behind a building.

One of them was a tank, the 'Challenger' Tank he had seen once before. The other was a sowhat lighter-armored but more robust-looking wheeled combat vehicle.

They both fired at the Green Skin Orcs.
