Chapter 708 Escape from the insect mouth
The bugs were getting closer and closer to them. The injured Eldar closed his eyes and felt the movements of the bugs in the mist.
The six scattered knife bugs, because they were separated from the node creatures, acted only on the instinct of hunger.
This greatly reduces their danger, but it is still a threat that cannot be underestimated to a seriously injured Eldar and ordinary soldiers.
And these bugs are definitely not the last batch to attack them. As the unique smell of the Eldar spreads, more and more bugs will come here.
"At 10 o'clock, there are two bugs."
Mal aimed the gun and vaguely saw two black figures approaching quietly from the smoke.
The light from the laser gun illuminated the dim woodland, allowing Mal to see clearly what the knife insect looked like.
One of the knife bugs had a broken forelimb, which was most likely an injury caused when the orc warship crashed.
Regardless, the weaker these bugs are, the better.
The bright light of the laser was well contained by the muzzle of the gun. Mal was able to clearly see the running movements of the knife bugs with the mechanical sight, and used the laser to break their joints.
A knife insect had a broken leg. It fell to the ground and moved up and down on its forelimbs and hind legs, greatly slowing down its speed.
Mal took this opportunity to aim his laser gun at another bug. This bug was only about 20 meters away from Mal. It was not difficult for these swift little bugs to cross this distance.
5 lasers are used to soften the carapace, and 3 lasers are used to destroy limbs.
This is a little experience that Marr summed up in a defensive battle. At a distance of 20 meters, he had to repeatedly shoot the laser in a circular area with a radius of 5 centimeters.
The energy of the magazine was consumed quickly, and Mal shot through the head of the knife insect. It roared in pain, jumped its legs and rushed towards Mal.
In the flash of lightning, Mal thrust the laser gun forward, and the bayonet hanging from the muzzle penetrated the open bloody mouth of the knife insect, shattering its slender and smooth tongue.
A knife bug that has lost one of its forelimbs is still quite dangerous. After all, this bug has a total of four sharp claws.
Mal's bulletproof armor was being torn apart by the two forelimbs on the abdomen of the knife insect. As long as the insect worked hard, it could open Mal's chest.
Chi!
Mal used his arms hard and pulled the laser gun upwards. The bayonet left a vertical wound on the head of the knife bug.
The knife insect died, and the exhausted body pressed on Mal's body, making him a little unsteady.
Another injured insect also rushed over. Mal was unable to take action for a while, so he could only use the knife insect as a shield and huddle as far back as possible.
The laser beam hit the eye of the knife insect, and several laser shots were fired extremely accurately, almost hitting the same point.
The eyeballs of the knife bug evaporated, the laser beam hit the brain, and all the soft tissues in the head were cooked.
The Eldar's support was timely, but there were still four bugs approaching them.
There were more bugs behind, and the warrior bugs as node creatures caught the scent of the Eldar from the smoke.
"Finally, this is fate." The Ada Eldar accepted their fate, with a complex look of relief on her face.
Compromise with fate and a faint fear of death were hidden on her tense face.
This attitude of giving up life made Mal very angry. He roughly pulled up the Eldar, not caring about the latter's screams of pain.
At this time, Mal's brain was spinning rapidly. He threw the incendiary grenade from his waist and used the flames to slow down the insects.
"It's useless. Put me down and let me die with my friends." The Eldar begged.
"Shut up! You damn coward!" Mal's roar suppressed the voice of the Eldar, and he ran like this as a struggle against his fate of death.
The cries of insects were getting closer and closer to them, and the Eldar, who was held on Mal's back, also used laser pistols to attack the incoming insects.
The bugs whose eyes were shot fell into a brief confusion, but the approach of the warrior bugs allowed them to quickly recover.
The venom and bone spurs of the insects whizzed past them, and the nearby trees trembled and dropped soot and dead leaves as the swarms of insects ran, but Mal was still running with the Eldar on his back.
He swore that he had never run so fast. This was probably what the Ministry of Military Affairs often preached - believe in your own strength! You are great humans!
The light shining through the smoke made Mal even more excited. This was proof that they were about to break out of the Death Forest.
Next they could see the open grassland, and the communicator on their chests could finally connect to the command post.
As for what will be on the grass, whether it is bugs, orcs, or pagans, this is not Mal's decision.
He did his best, that's all.
"Get down! Soldier!"
Such a clear command made Mal subconsciously fall down.
This is a very unique shooting sound. Marr has never heard such a gunshot in his service career.
The sound is more manic than the sound of laser gun shooting, and deeper than the sound of plasma shooting.
The red and purple laser beam was so thick and hot that Mal felt sweaty just by glancing at it from the corner of his eye.
The insect was hit by these violent lasers, and its entire body burned, turning into a ball of ash within a few seconds.
"The throne is on you. This is too fierce."
Mal stared blankly as the bugs were dispersed by laser transpiration, and the joy of surviving the disaster made him smile.
"Haha! We survived!"
Laughing at his good fortune, Mal climbed up and pulled the Eldar up with him. A giant stood in the light in the distance.
This was a Space Marine, Mal recognized it clearly. Although he couldn't see the armor and paint clearly, he could tell from the general outline.
The guardian of the star zone had come to their side and liberated the planet caught in the flames of war.
"From one death to another. Fate is so cruel." The Eldar said sadly.
"What?" Mal didn't understand, he still smiled, "We are saved, this is an angel."
"For you, it's like this." The Eldar continued, and suddenly she realized something, frowned and pushed Mal away with difficulty. "I'm healed, please stay away from me, it's better to shoot me directly."
"Are you scared silly by the bugs?" Mal asked with a raised eyebrow, this Eldar was really difficult to get along with.
"My name is Mal."
The Eldar looked at Mal's outstretched hand for a while, then looked at Mal's face again.
Stupidity is shocking.
The Eldar made such a comment in his heart, but did not hold Mal's hand, but just told him that his name was Lan Ya.
