Chapter 249: Chapter 102: Real Combat Test? Drill and Target Practice!_2

So, he decisively ordered:

"Full speed ahead!"

"The battle positions for each team have been sent to the PDAs; squad leaders please brief the combatants after reviewing them."

"According to the predetermined combat plan, each team should occupy advantageous positions and intercept the target."

"Squad Five is responsible for establishing the first line of defense. Huang Yu, lead your team out quickly, move to the designated position and deploy!"

"Roger that!"

Huang Yu, who had long been eager to show Chen Jian the results of their training, nodded immediately and led his team to separate from the main force in a cargo truck, rushing ahead to the east side of the monster’s location.

He loosened his grip on the 191 rifle, wiping his sweaty palm on his rough pants, then said:

"Everyone, the organization is testing us now."

"Our mission this time is to establish a defense line on the high ground 600 meters east of the monster, to prevent it from escaping eastward and meeting up with another monster further east."

"The mission is dangerous and not easy for us."

"But this is our first proactive combat operation with the commanders, we must show our momentum!"

"Huang Xing, after reaching the designated position, immediately lead the team to set up a machine gun position, and suppress the monster with gunfire."

"Huang Shuo, follow closely behind Huang Xing, prepare the mortars and grenades."

"If the monster is too fast for the machine guns, your squad will have to stop it."

"Everyone else, get your rocket launchers ready, I’ve taught you how to use them, and here’s the final reminder of precautions."

"First, wait for the monster to come within 150 meters before aiming and firing."

"Second, before you fire, make sure to check behind you to ensure there are no obstacles or comrades."

"Understood?"

"Understood!"

Squad Five answered in unison, their tone firm, though their expressions inevitably betraying some tension.

After all, it was a "near Level 4" powerful monster!

Based on their previous experience, such a monster could easily destroy a small town.

And now, they have to rely on their limited forces to try to hunt down this monster!

Nervousness was inevitable, and some even started to tremble all over.

This is a normal reaction due to the intense secretion of adrenaline. Although Huang Yu did not understand the principle, he empathetically offered words of comfort, saying:

"It’s okay, you’ll stop shaking once the fight starts."

"The monster isn’t that strong; the commander alone can take one down, and now we have 48 people and so many weapons, we’ll be fine."

"Just remember, don’t be afraid!"

"Not being afraid will let you survive; being afraid will get you killed!"

"Alright!"

"Got it, squad leader!"

Everyone responded one by one, and at this moment, Squad Five had already bypassed the area where the monster was located, following the map’s guidance to a small hill where their battle position was.

Without any hesitation, the moment the truck stopped, Huang Yu jumped off the truck first, quickly unstrapping the equipment from his back, tirelessly began loading ammunition and adjusting positions.

A few seconds later, all personnel were in place.

Huang Yu sent a "ready" signal to Chen Jian, and at that moment, a silhouette of a monster suddenly appeared from the gradually withering canopy of the fungi forest in the distance.

"There it is!"

Huang Yu said in a low voice, pointing towards where the monster was.

Everyone immediately adjusted their weapons, and Huang Yu, imitating Chen Jian’s manner, continued to speak:

"Fu Xi, can you hear me?"

"Can you operate the drone to track that monster?"

"Fu Xi received, I’ve taken over the drone command, tracking underway, position updated!"

"Great!"

Huang Yu nodded excitedly, then looked at the picture on his PDA.

He meticulously calculated the monster’s location and waited for it to slow down.

When confirming the monster was within range, Huang Yu decisively said:

"Group Two, suppress with the machine gun!"

In an instant, loud gunfire erupted.

The three machine gunners in Group Two were not used to using machine guns with bipods, but at least, after nearly a month of training, they had learned one rule, which was:

Do not pull the trigger all the way down.

In intermittent, random bursts, bullets flew towards the distant fungi forest, guided by the tracer rounds, the three machine gunners continuously adjusted their aim, trying to concentrate the shots on the monster’s activity area.

By this time, the monster had been startled by the sudden gunfire.

After initial panic and fear, its natural predatory instinct quickly kicked in, charging towards the direction of the incoming bullets.

It moved quickly, advancing over 200 meters in just a few seconds, and its previously indistinct shape started to become clear.

Huang Yu’s heart pounded vigorously; at this moment, he was absolutely certain that his 10-man squad was facing a monster capable of being rated as "Level 4"!

Its speed was too fast and movements too agile!

Even after seeing the incoming tracer rounds, it suddenly stopped during its rapid run and changed directions, trying to dodge the bullets!

"Group Three, fire the grenade launcher!"

"Don’t let that monster make a turn! If it turns, we can’t hit it!"

"Got it!"

Group Three leader Huang Shuo immediately raised the LG-6, roughly aimed, then nervously pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

A light sound, and the grenade headed towards the monster 400 meters away.

But unfortunately, the grenade did not fall where he expected.

The impact point was too close!

Huang Shuo took a deep breath, intending to raise the muzzle, but as if by a stroke of intuition, he chose the same reference as the first shot and fired again.

"Bang!"

Two seconds later, the grenade fell!

And this time, the monster happened to run head-on into the shrapnel from the explosion!

"Boom!"

Plumes of smoke rose, and the monster let out an ear-piercing scream, terrifying those on the defense line.

Only 300 meters remained!

In a few more seconds, the monster would reach them!

Panic started to spread, but at this moment, Huang Yu’s voice rang out again.

"Don’t be afraid!"

"It’s very close now, the machine guns can reach!"

"Don’t stop! Keep shooting!"

"Running now means death, kill it and we can live!"

"Understood!"

Group Two leader Huang Xing gritted his teeth and continued squeezing the trigger, and this time, the bullets from the machine gun group became dense.

A curtain of fire enveloped the monster, halting its charge.

Several bullets hit the monster directly, pinning it almost to the ground.

But sadly, the monster’s speed was just too fast.

Even using its forward momentum, it managed to break free from the fire curtain, executing a sharp zigzag before continuing its charge towards their position.

The distance closed to 200 meters, Huang Yu stood up, lined up with two other team members five meters apart, raising the rocket launchers they had already unlocked.

Only one chance.

Huang Yu silently repeated to himself, his previously trembling hand slowly steadied.

"Listen to my countdown!"

"Fire when I say zero!"

He shouted loudly:

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"0!"

"Fire!"

The trigger was pulled, and the rocket shells fired out.

Immediately, they hit the monster that had surged to a distance of 100 meters!

"Boom!"

A massive explosion resounded, and Huang Yu couldn’t help squinting his eyes but quickly opened them again, bending down to grab another rocket launcher from beside him.

"Fire again---- cease fire!"

Huang Yu stared blankly ahead.

After being directly hit by a killing shell, the monster, barely over four meters tall, collapsed to the ground like a heap of meat paste.

Its entire upper body had been blown apart, its final nerve impulses incapable of posing any threat to the squad.

Dead.

Just like that, dead?!

Huang Yu looked incredulously at the rocket launcher in his hands.

This weapon.... could it be so powerful?

No.

The Mechanical God Sect also has such weapons, but in their hands, it couldn’t possibly show such power.

It’s not the weapon that’s strong, it’s the people using it.

Huang Yu exhaled heavily, and at this moment, Chen Jian’s calm voice came through the radio.

"The first monster has been eliminated."

"Squad Five, well done."

"Regroup with the team and continue moving forward!"
