The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 71 Encounter

"+25 resource points, +35 iron resources, +5 copper resources, +10 fiber resources, +5 rubber resources, +5 water resources..."

Wherever the army passed, Li Meng did not let go of any abandoned vehicles on the road.

After staying in the shelter for so many days, the transmission energy has recovered to more than 80%, which is enough and there is no need to save.

"The target is too large, cannot be locked, cannot be transmitted..."

Beside a bus, Li Meng stopped, thinking that such a large bus would get so many resources, but the reality was cruel. The reminder of 2020 made Li Meng leave with regret.

The maximum volume transmission is ten cubic meters. Obviously, the volume of the bus has exceeded the range of ten cubic meters.

Heading northwest all the way, Li Meng arrived at the east bank of the Jianghuai Canal at around 2 pm.

Standing on the river bank and looking at the river, there is a vast white snowfield.

Occasionally, you can see snow packs in the snowfield, and under the snow packs are boats, large and small.

Further away, Li Meng also saw a large ship. Although the lower half of the ship was buried in the snow, the upper half was still exposed. The superstructure was clearly visible, the hull was tilted, and the bow was raised high.

It was very big, and it looked no less than 100 meters long. It should be a cargo ship.

Retracting his gaze from afar, Li Meng left the river bank and entered the river, and the army continued to move forward.

The sky and the earth were dark, the cold wind was howling, and the snow was rolling. On the river, Li Meng led the army to move forward slowly. With every step, the snow submerged his calves, and wherever he passed, he left one ditch after another behind him.

"Roar..."

Just as they approached the central area of ​​the river, bursts of beast roars suddenly sounded.

Just on the other side of the river, dozens of strange beasts appeared. They ran wildly on the snow, jumped up, and jumped into the river from the shore.

Their goal was clear, and they came straight to the army on the river. Wherever they passed, snowflakes flew, like a rolling snow wave, with amazing momentum.

The sudden roar of the beast made Li Meng stop. Behind him, the imperial bows and arrows on both sides moved silently and lined up in front of Li Meng.

From the gaps between the steel bodies in front, Li Meng looked at the group of strange beasts rushing over on the river in front of him. His face was calm, as if the appearance of the group of strange beasts was within his expectations.

Five hundred meters, four hundred meters, three hundred meters...

When the group of strange beasts approached the army within 300 meters, the imperial archers lined up in front of Li Meng all drew their bows and arrows and released the bowstrings...

"Swish..."

Amid the sound of the bowstring rebounding, a black rain of arrows rose up, rushed straight into the sky with a whistling sound, and fell on the distant group of strange beasts in a perfect arc.

"Swish..."

Two hundred iron arrows formed a dense rain of arrows, falling directly above the herd of alien beasts. Some of the sharp iron arrows pierced into the snow, while others pierced through the scales of the alien beasts and nailed them deep into their bodies.

The huge impact caused the herd of alien beasts to fall to the ground, and more than a dozen alien beasts rolled to the ground, with iron arrows piercing their bodies.

Amidst the wailing, some alien beasts climbed up, while others struggled in the snow, their lives gradually passing away.

"Swish..."

As soon as a wave of arrow rain fell, another wave of arrow rain came again.

The imperial archer in front of Li Meng mechanically pulled the bow and loaded the arrow, shooting the iron arrows into the sky again and again. The interval between each arrow would not exceed five seconds, and each wave of arrow rain would accurately fall into the herd of alien beasts.

In a short distance of 300 meters, nearly fifty alien beasts fell on the river one by one before they got close.

"Swish..."

The last wave of arrows did not rise up. An imperial archer at the front drew his bow and aimed at the last approaching alien beast, which was very close.

Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters...

When the roar of the alien beast was close at hand and the ferocious mouth was clearly visible, the imperial archer released the bowstring.

"Swish..."

Like a thunder, the sharp arrow whistled out, instantly crossed a distance of ten meters, and hit the head of the alien beast.

"Swish..."

There was only a dull bone cracking sound, and the iron arrow directly pierced the seemingly hard skull of the alien beast, and the arrow body was half immersed.

The alien beast paused in its running, unable to even make a wail, and rolled to the ground. Its huge body slid forward for several meters, and stopped only when it slid to the feet of the imperial archer...

At this point, this encounter with the alien beast was declared over.

"+50 resource points, +30 biological resources, +2 iron resources..."

"+50 resource points, +30 biological resources, +1 iron resources..."

As the white light poured into the void, the bodies of the alien beasts on the snow disappeared without a trace.

A total of fifty alien beast bodies allowed Li Meng to obtain a fairly rich amount of biological resources in advance.

On the river, the army continued to move forward. When they arrived here, they were not far from the welcoming shelter.

The journey was smooth afterwards. Before dark, Li Meng successfully arrived at the welcoming shelter.

Standing at the entrance of the subway station, looking at the staircase passage shrouded in darkness, Li Meng's eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation.

Not long ago, this place was ravaged by the red tide, and there was no guarantee that there were no alien beasts in the shelter.

The underground space is narrow, which is not conducive to the battle of the imperial archers. Once the number of alien beasts exceeds the limit that the imperial archers can cope with, everything will be in danger.

After thinking about it, Li Meng gave up and did not rush to enter the shelter.

On the street, the army continued to advance and entered a construction site hundreds of meters away in the north.

The snow pit was still the same snow pit, and the big hole in the pit was still there, not buried by the snow.

Looking up at the sky, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the night was coming.

"Quick, dig out all the bodies, act immediately..."

With Li Meng's order, the soldiers who entered the snow pit scattered, digging the snow with both hands, and dragged out one body after another from the snow.

After a while, in less than five minutes, the snow in front of Li Meng was full of bodies.

There were too many bodies in this pit, and it was easy to dig. As long as there were enough people, as many bodies as possible could be dug out.

"Coordinate 1 locked, coordinate 2 locked, coordinate 3 locked..., wormhole opened, light transmission started, countdown: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."

As 2020's words fell, on the snow in front of Li Meng, a white light emerged from the void, turning into light particles that enveloped two hundred corpses. In less than two seconds, the corpses turned into a piece of white light and poured into the void, disappearing without a trace...

"Resource points +605, biological resources +410, fiber resources +1000..."

Time passed bit by bit, and the sky gradually darkened. In the snow pit, a burst of white light flashed from time to time.

Again and again, I don't know how many times it flashed, and I don't know how long it lasted.

Until the sky darkened, the world was hazy, and the temperature dropped rapidly, the white light finally stopped flashing.

"Resource points +600, biological resources +410, fiber resources +1000..."

As 2020's voice fell, Li Meng shuddered all over.

It’s too cold. Once the sun sets above the clouds, the temperature between heaven and earth drops rapidly.
