Chapter 144 Annihilate the Enemy on the Way
Upon hearing Bei Bei's words, three students with scratch marks on their bodies stood up from among the martial spirit students who were sitting on the ground.
"Don't worry, Beibei, we were prepared for this from the moment we were scratched. Rather than risk harming our own people on the battlefield, we'd rather lure the zombie horde to attack. Even if we can't bring out the monsters from the city center, we'll gather enough ordinary monsters."
It was truly tragic, but the students of the Martial Soul Department had no other choice. In the previous few hours, Bei Bei had given the students of the Martial Soul Department a comprehensive explanation of the types of Soul Guidance Devices and the order in which they should be equipped.
Now that everyone sees that the Soul Guidance System's detection Soul Guidance Devices have been deployed to such a far distance (the Martial Soul System will also go forward to scout, and if they go forward to scout and don't see the Soul Guidance System's position at all after a kilometer, it means that the Soul Guidance System's position is even further away), they immediately understand that the Soul Guidance System has definitely made thorough defensive preparations. At the very least, the entire encampment has been surrounded by all kinds of defensive Soul Guidance Devices and large offensive Soul Guidance Devices.
After such a long journey, the Martial Soul Department has realized that with only twenty-odd people, it is absolutely impossible for them to break through the well-defended Soul Guidance Department's defensive position, let alone inflict casualties on the Soul Guidance Department students hiding inside.
Sending one's own teammate to be a human target is a cruel thing for all the martial spirit students present. Even if the other party is willing, these young people, still filled with the passion for justice, are not so willing to accept it.
They embraced each other, for even warriors must eventually part. Three martial arts students, wounded by zombies, departed with the poignant narration, "The wind howls, the Yi River is cold, the hero departs, never to return."
The remaining martial spirit students could only watch from the spot, wishing their classmates and teammates all the best.
However, since the actions of the Martial Soul Department were already under the noses of the Soul Guidance Department, and the Soul Guidance Department had also anticipated their possible actions, how could these three "tragic" Martial Soul Department students possibly achieve their wishes?
Almost at the same time they left, Huo Yuhao, who was monitoring the feedback from the soul tool in the Soul Guidance Department, reported the situation in the communication group.
"Wow, the Spirit System is moving fast! Our Spirit Guidance Armored Vehicles have only just started their journey!"
"We can't let them leave so quickly. Deploy attack-type soul-guided drones immediately and kill them on the road if possible."
Oh, and equip the drones with self-destruct bombs. Even if they get shot down or crash, they'll still be killed.
I believe no one wants to experience being torn apart by a horde of zombies. We all must survive until the end of the battle, until victory is achieved.
Long You originally planned to keep these few rack-mounted attack-type soul-guided drones to play a role in a possible zombie horde attack.
However, compared to being besieged by zombie hordes, Longyou still hopes that no zombie hordes will appear at all, so now is not the time to be stingy with equipment.
The speed of the soul-guided drones is undoubtedly faster than the walking speed of the soul masters. So, one kilometer after the three martial soul students who were scratched by zombies left the gathering place of martial soul students, the attack-type soul-guided drones of the soul-guided department had already arrived.
Because they had never encountered any aerial attacks during their time in the battle space, the students of the Martial Soul system inevitably relaxed their aerial defenses.
Although the five attack-type soul-guided drones lacked stealth capabilities, the lack of vigilance among the martial soul system students allowed them to easily approach the optimal attack range. Moreover, the first wave of attacks alone had already severely injured three martial soul system students.
Immediately afterwards, under the control of the combat-aided AI, the attack-type soul-guided drone began to hover and attack at an altitude of about fifty meters.
A 50-meter attack range is already very small for a soul tool (to maintain accuracy in aerial attacks, the altitude must be reduced at this stage).
Unfortunately, even though an attack range of fifty meters is very close for a soul tool, it is still a distance that only extremely long-range soul skills can reach for a soul master.
However, these three core disciples of the Martial Soul system are all powerful close-combat offensive Soul Masters. Among their Soul Skills, even the one with the longest attack range cannot reach the air within fifty meters.
The principle that prolonged defense inevitably leads to defeat needs no further emphasis. Without any cover, and constantly subjected to attacks from the air, the three core disciples of the Martial Soul Department were unable to advance and quickly collapsed, severely injured.
Combat-aid AI has no humanity whatsoever; according to the previous settings, these three people were targets to be eliminated. Therefore, no matter how the three martial spirit-type individuals roared in anger, their attacks did not slacken in the slightest.
However, the accuracy of attacks from the air was extremely limited, so the Spirit Master students who had already fallen struggled for a long time. The sounds of the attacking Spirit-guided drones, coupled with the desperate cries of the Spirit Master students, successfully attracted the attention of the distant zombie horde, and of course, the attention of the other Spirit Master students as well.
However, by the time the remaining Martial Soul system students arrived, the zombie horde had already gathered, and the offensive Martial Soul system drones sent by the Martial Soul system had already withdrawn.
"Withdraw, withdraw immediately."
Despite her bloodshot eyes, Bei Bei could only grit her teeth and give the order to retreat. The horde of zombies was beyond the capabilities of current martial spirit students; they had to avoid it.
"There's no other way, let's sacrifice ourselves. Let's bypass this horde of zombies and all of us go into the city to lure out the zombie horde. When we come back, we'll bring this group with us and charge straight into the Soul Guidance Department's position."
I've determined the flight direction of those five attack-type soul-guided drones. These intelligently controlled drones don't turn; they always fly in straight lines. As long as we follow this direction, we'll definitely find the soul-guided system's position.
As Beibei became increasingly aware that she had little room to struggle, she became obsessed with the idea that as long as the Soul Guidance Department didn't have an easy time, they wouldn't be considered a failure.
However, the Martial Soul system wasted too much time traveling back and forth. The tracked soul-guided armored vehicles that were sent out as large bombs were already in place, and the attack-type soul-guided drones in the air had also returned and begun to engage and attack.
"Everything is just right. Eliminating the enemy during the attack is what a Soul Master strives for. Apart from being a bit cruel to Senior Brother Bei Bei and the others, there seems to be nothing unacceptable about it."
