Soon, two soldiers drove an armored vehicle back in a hurry, their faces full of urgency and panic.

Before the car stopped, a soldier jumped out of the car in a hurry and reported to the commander: "Captain, the situation is very urgent! The streets are full of eaters, the number is staggering. They are chasing a group of rebels and are coming towards us. Got it!

"How many eaters are there specifically?" the officer asked anxiously.

"I'm afraid there are tens of thousands, or even more! There is no end in sight. The swarm of eaters is expected to arrive at us within ten minutes!"

ten minutes?

Thousands?

After listening to the soldiers' report, everyone instantly became panicked, and a panic commotion broke out among the crowd.

After Su Rui and the officer finished listening, they also looked at Li Hongqi with a gloomy expression, who was using his sense of smell to remove earthworms from the mines.

Li Hongqi was also very anxious at the moment, urging his younger brothers to speed up the progress.

However, everyone knows that time is running out.

After thinking for a moment, the commander suggested to Li Hongqi: "Can we use these corpses on the ground to detonate mine earthworms? We have a lot of corpses to use. Will this increase the speed of mine clearance?"

While Li Hongqi used his sense of smell to locate the mine earthworms, he directed his subordinates to carefully pick them out with wooden sticks.

After successfully eliminating another one, he frowned and responded: "This is totally unacceptable!"

"Why?" The officer looked puzzled.

"These mutated earthworms have a characteristic. Once one of them is detonated, the others will run around underground and change their original positions. In normal times, this would not matter, but now..."

"What's wrong now?"

"I just detected through my sense of smell that I can still smell them at least a hundred meters away. This means that once we try to detonate a few of them, it may cause them to flee in large areas. This will not only make our previous Our efforts will be in vain, and what’s worse is that they may crawl directly under our feet. By then, we may not even have a chance to escape.”

A hundred meters away?

So how many mine earthworms are hidden in the ground ahead?

After listening to Li Hongqi's words, everyone looked towards the end of the mine formation from a distance, their hearts filled with panic and uneasiness. A sense of powerlessness arose spontaneously, as if they were tightly bound.

Suri then asked: "With such a long distance, are you sure you can complete the cleaning within half an hour?"

Li Hongqi said helplessly: "It's almost OK, but it can only barely allow vehicles to pass, and it can't accommodate two cars driving side by side."

After listening to his words, both Suri and the officer realized the seriousness of the situation.

The commander made a prompt decision and began to make arrangements: "All soldiers listen to the order! Immediately establish a position in the direction of the group of eaters! Prepare all ammunition! Once the eaters enter the range, fire immediately! Don't be stingy with ammunition! This is a life and death battle. , we must buy time to clear the landmines!”

Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately began to prepare nervously.

They had just breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't expect to fall into a new crisis, and their hearts were extremely heavy.

At the same time, Suri also quickly made arrangements.

He walked to the side of the motorcade, explained the situation to Professor Liu and others with a solemn expression, and made emergency arrangements.

"Old Liu, wait a minute and let our people also use thermal weapons to join the battle. But there is a prerequisite, no one can get out of the car! Once the situation goes bad or the military position is breached, we must drive out immediately!"

Professor Liu asked with a worried look on his face: "Which direction should we break through? Can our vehicle pass through the mine array?"

Su Rui shook his head and said, "No, Li Hongqi estimated that the mine formation was at least a hundred meters long. Therefore, we chose to break out from the group of eaters."

"With so many eaters, can we... really rush out?"

Su Rui thought for a moment and then said: "It shouldn't be a big problem. I will have a solution when the time comes."

He thought to himself that he still had unlimited gasoline. If combined with the ability to pause time for thirty seconds, he should be able to break open a hole and break out of the siege.

At this moment, the commander suddenly pulled Su Rui aside and said solemnly: "Suri, I have a hunch that it may be difficult for these soldiers and I to survive this..."

Su Rui frowned and said in a deep voice: "Sir, you are a soldier. Such depressing words shouldn't come out of your mouth, right?"

The officer smiled slightly and shook his head bitterly: "No, I'm just stating the facts."

Suri asked: "Then you are looking for me, do you want me to help deal with these eaters?"

The officer nodded seriously and said, "Yes, but it's not right either. I don't expect you to be able to explode with astonishing power like before, but I do have something to ask for."

Suri immediately refused: "Sir, I'm afraid I won't agree to it. It's impossible for me to risk my own life and the lives of those around me."

The commander immediately said with a wry smile: "Suri, listen to me first, and then you decide. In fact, it doesn't matter if we sacrifice, but we still have an important task to complete. On the armored vehicle, there is a person who needs our protection. I hope that if you have a chance to escape, you can help escort her to a military shelter."

Suri still shook his head firmly and refused: "Sir, I'm afraid I can't agree to your request. In this apocalypse, danger is everywhere, and we can't predict what will happen tomorrow. Therefore, I just want to ensure that our It’s safe and I don’t want to cause trouble.”

The commander sighed deeply and stressed helplessly: "Suri, the person we protect is really important!"

Suri responded coldly: "Sir, your mission has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to interfere."

The commander continued with some urgency: "But that person may hold the key to solving the red mist crisis. She is conducting an experiment that affects the fate of the entire human race!"

Suri paused for a moment when he heard this, but finally shook his head firmly.

This person may be really important, just like Liu Feifei, who can solve the food crisis, and may even trigger the system to start a new side mission.

However, for him now, one more person means more trouble. What's more, he is such an important person.

If he already has invincible strength, then bringing one more person is just a piece of cake.

However, he has not yet reached that level and can only focus on protecting himself and his companions.

Seeing Suri's resolute attitude, the commander had no choice but to leave and began to instruct the soldiers to build a defense line and wait quietly for the arrival of the group of eaters.

While waiting, everyone still held a trace of luck in their hearts, hoping that the group of eaters would not really arrive.

However, the sound of gunshots getting closer and closer in the distance made fear quietly breed in everyone's heart.

The soldiers clenched their guns out of fear, their palms soaked with sweat.

The crowd trembled involuntarily out of fear, and some even closed their eyes or squatted on the ground and buried their heads.

Just like that, five minutes passed.

The sound of gunshots coming from the distance became clearer and clearer, dense crowds of figures were vaguely visible, and the ground trembled slightly.

As time went by, a horrifying scene gradually unfolded in front of everyone.

The rebel team of more than a dozen people ran away while shooting. Behind them, there was an endless group of eaters, which was as far as the eye could see, forming a sharp contrast with the rebels.

"His ha..."

"His ha..."

The eaters made horrifying roars, and the sounds came and went. It was extremely terrifying and creepy!

However, they did not run quickly, but walked slowly, as if controlled by some force.

Seeing the huge group of eaters in front of them, almost everyone turned pale, and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

Is there anything in this world that can be more terrifying than this moment?

The answer is...no!

Everyone asks themselves, from birth to now, to the end of the world, we have never seen such a terrifying scene!

Every corner of the street is filled with eaters, it’s so densely packed that it’s almost suffocating.

It's like hell has descended on the world!

Can humans really compete with such a quantity?

Even a well-equipped army would probably be difficult to resist, right?

I am afraid that only those large shelters with strong defense capabilities can barely block it!

Even though Suri had great confidence in himself, seeing such a scene, he couldn't help but take a breath.

He knows that what follows will be a life and death battle!

Immediately, he looked back and saw that Li Hongqi had cleared one-third of the road, which meant that a glimmer of hope was right in front of him.

It seems... we have to work hard!

However, at this moment, dozens of rebels shouted, 'Don't shoot' and ran towards the soldiers' position.

The soldiers asked their superiors whether to fire, but out of sympathy for their fellow human beings, the superiors did not give the order to fire.

However, just when several rebels were very close to their position, someone suddenly pointed at the military's armored vehicle and shouted: "Quick, grab the vehicle!"

Before he finished speaking, the rebels opened fire first, instantly wounding two soldiers.

This sudden change was beyond everyone's expectations.

The soldiers immediately launched a counterattack, but due to the close distance, although many rebels were killed, they also paid a heavy price. Five people died on the spot.

When the crowd saw this, they suddenly panicked and fled in all directions.

Some people stepped into the minefield in panic and accidentally detonated the mine earthworms, but this did not scare away others. The instinct of survival drove more people to step into the minefield, which immediately triggered a series of explosions. Li Hongqi's life and death were unknown after he was blown away. None of his younger brothers were spared and were blown to pieces.

After the landmine earthworms were frightened, they began to run around. Even people who had not stepped into the minefield were innocently affected and died tragically on the spot.

Just like that, before the group of eaters approached, there was already chaos here.

Everyone's hopes were gradually shattered by successive accidents.

However, at this most critical moment, Suri's heart became stronger.

He watched all this with cold eyes. His sense of crisis made his belief in survival stronger, his spirit highly concentrated, and his willpower reached its peak.

Can't die!

I can't die yet!

No one can die!

What Su Rui didn't notice was that his vitality also quietly began to burn, preparing for the coming explosion...
