Chapter 296 The Warrior's First Battle with the Insects
Huiyuan City, outskirts of the industrial park
Large numbers of soldiers were approaching in this direction, combat tanks were advancing along the road, and human and beast-shaped Angel Envoys rapidly shuttled between the streets and tanks, forming a protective formation.
"Bang bang bang"
Gunshots rang out continuously, and large numbers of encroaching monsters were killed by the soldiers following the pioneer team.
The battlefield continued to advance, and a large number of soldiers approached the industrial park in the northeast corner with this formation, slowly.
Zhao Sanyi held a weapon resembling a Horse-Cutting Saber in his hand, darting swiftly around the tanks, his Angel Envoy guarding the periphery. Any Second-grade Monster attempting to get close to the tanks would be immediately intercepted by him and then, without hesitation, slain.
It wasn't just him; many Second Order Contractors adopted the method of infantry-tank cooperation to ensure the speed and stability of the advance.
However, the progress was still not encouraging.
"Zhou Shan Ying, didn't you say there weren't many monsters on the periphery?"
In the midst of the Linshui Armed Forces, a lean man with a sallow complexion asked in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he simultaneously commanded his Angel Envoy to rush into the horde of monsters, aiding the soldiers in dispatching the oncoming creatures.
"I sure as hell didn't see any of these when I scouted here a few days ago."
Zhou Shan Ying had no idea why these changes had occurred. As he pondered his confusion, a skull with bat wings and four auxiliary claws swooped overhead, rushing into the horde of monsters.

The batting of the bat wings unleashed sharp blades, instantly clearing a circle of monsters. Flesh and blood splattered all over the ground.
"Be careful; there might have been some new changes."
Zhou Shan Ying understood clearly; the industrial system of Huiyuan City was where its value lay. Otherwise, there were more suitable towns near Linshui City that could be reclaimed.
Moreover, if they didn't secure the Huiyuan City industrial park, the weapon and equipment supplies for the entire 117th Regiment would fall behind consumption, likely leading to a severe disjunction in their combat system.
"I mean, should we hold back and ask for support from the regiment and military district? They seem to have gotten some new equipment."
Chen Da was concerned about his own equipment and his men. Exploring in such fog had never been an easy task.
Zhou Shan Ying, however, scoffed coldly and said: "Don't kid yourself, Chen. Given the current situation, what do you think the chances are of getting new equipment? People at headquarters outnumber us. And besides..."
He hesitated, as the present circumstances, though still under the command of headquarters, often required negotiating with materials and personnel—it was an undeniable fact.
It didn't mean an outrageous price in trade, but they definitely wouldn't simply give away resources without asking for something in return.
After all, every resource had to be used where it mattered most.
Chen Da sighed: "Understood. One armored vehicle per squad, and retreat if things go south."

Huiyuan City industrial park, Worm Nest Territory
Su Han passed through the Bug Quality Rift, followed by ten Tree Domain warriors clad in metal plate armor, standing tall. Leading them was the Third Order Ge Ming, with the remaining nine being Bug warriors who had undergone bug bone implantation with him.
This... is Huiyuan City? It's truly unbelievable.
All the Bug warriors couldn't help but share this thought as they looked upon the factory overtaken by Bug Quality and nests.
They knew their lord was extremely powerful, but it never crossed their minds that he had set his sights on the distant Huiyuan City.
Moreover, they now possessed a teleporting bug wormhole that could traverse space, something that exceeded their imagination.
