Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree

Chapter 142 Assisting in Defense

At this time, Feng Jun, who was walking from a distance, couldn't help but ask: "Captain, haven't the mutated animals from the Dragon King Palace arrived yet?"

His 7th Battalion had already gone through a round of fighting and just came back to change defense.

"There are still 10 minutes until the agreed time." Zhang Ji replied and asked, "Is someone in your 7th Brigade injured again?"

"Well! Three more soldiers are injured, and there is one seriously injured." Feng Jun's face looked a little ugly.

When they cleared the Dongling Mountains before, they mainly dealt with mutant animals. As for these mutant insects, they could only cause them some minor trouble at most.

They can even leave these mutated insects to the security company behind them to deal with.

But now, the situation is completely different.

The comprehensive strength of these mutant insects has increased by at least five times. Even if they are wearing combat uniforms, these second-level mutant insects can actually bite through the protective clothing and tear off a piece of flesh with one bite.

This is outrageous.

If it weren't for these mutated insects with extremely low defense, plus the large amount of powerful insecticide water they brought this time, it would be a question whether they could win.

"Let the brothers hold on a little longer while the data is collected."

"The combat effectiveness of the mutated insects has exceeded our expectations. We will definitely have to change our combat methods in the future." Zhang Ji comforted him.

Suddenly, an air raid siren sounded from the south side of the Hongyan Mine.

At the same time, sounds came from the communicator in Zhang Ji's hand.

"Reporting to the commander, a mutated parrot with a wingspan of 20 meters was found in the southwest, flying towards our Hongyan Mine. Please give instructions."

When Zhang Ji heard the words "mutated parrot", his first reaction was that the parrot messenger from the Dragon King Palace was coming, but when he heard that the wingspan reached 20 meters, he hesitated.

Because the previous Parrot Messenger had a wingspan of only 5 meters, the gap between the two was too big.

After a brief silence, Zhang Ji ordered: "Keep the air defense team on alert, but don't shoot."

He wanted to check the situation first. After all, there were only a few ferocious birds with a wingspan of 20 meters, and they were all under the command of the mutated King Cobra.

Less than 30 seconds after he gave the order, he saw a huge mutant parrot hovering over the red rock mine.

The other party seemed to be sizing up the situation below.

Then Zhang Ji discovered that the other party was descending in his direction, but stopped when it dropped to about 30 meters.

"Tell your people to move their guns away." A voice came from high in the sky.

Seeing the mutated parrot in front of him, which was uttering human words, Zhang Ji still didn't know that it was really the messenger parrot.

He quickly ordered to lift the alert, and then the mutant parrot landed.

"Parrot Messenger, why have you become so big?" Zhang Ji looked at the huge parrot standing in front of him, reaching a height of 6 meters. Although he had some guesses in his mind, he couldn't help but ask.

"Because of this diplomatic mission, I performed pretty well and was rewarded by the Dragon King, who directly helped me break through to the third level." The mutant parrot said.

Hearing this, Zhang Ji and Feng Jun looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

According to their understanding, these mutated creatures can break through, either because they are extraordinary themselves, or they rely on spiritual energy to revive.

But now, that mutant king cobra can actually help others break through. The meaning of this is completely different.

A few days ago, there were only two third-level mutant creatures on the entire danger list.

Moreover, after the spiritual energy was revived, the number of third-order mutant creatures increased sharply. According to the estimation of the Mutation Management Bureau, the number of third-order mutant creatures in the entire Yangcheng City may have reached 20.

Although 20 third-level mutated creatures may not sound like much, it has already made the military feel the pressure.

After all, third-level mutant creatures are no longer afraid of ordinary bullets, and they have an extremely keen sense of danger. It is not easy to hit them with rockets or howitzers.

So basically a third-level mutated creature would require an entire brigade of soldiers to deal with it.

10 level three mutated creatures appearing at the same time can threaten a group.

If 100 level three mutated creatures appeared and attacked Yangcheng City together, it would be possible to destroy the city.

Originally, Zhang Ji felt that it would take a long time for 100 mutant creatures to be born around Yangcheng City.

but now……

"Your Dragon King, is it easy to help others break through?" Zhang Ji couldn't help but ask.

"Do you think I will tell you such a secret thing?" the mutant parrot said with a half-smile.

Zhang Ji: "..."

"Okay, I'm here to inform you that the team sent by our Dragon King Palace will arrive soon. Here at your Hongyan Mine, there is a team of mutated buffalo and black crows to assist in the defense. Let me tell you in advance to prevent you from pointing guns at random. past."

"You have to know that the perception of mutant creatures is very keen. If you point a gun at it, it is tantamount to provoking." The mutant parrot said, obviously alluding to what just happened.

"Don't worry, I will definitely explain to the soldiers not to aim their weapons randomly." Zhang Ji said quickly.

These are all trivial matters, and there is absolutely no need to offend your allies because of this.

The mutated parrot didn't speak any more and stood here waiting silently.

As for Zhang Ji, he also immediately used the communicator to inform everyone that the reinforcements were about to arrive, and asked them not to aim their guns randomly.

Not long after he issued the order, news came from the adjutant that a large number of mutated animals appeared in the southwest.

Upon hearing the news, Zhang Ji found himself feeling inexplicably relieved.

There was no way, the pressure put on them by the mutated insects in the past half hour was simply too much.

He immediately asked his adjutant to get a telescope and look into the distance.

The first thing that caught the eye was a large group of mutated black crows, more than 200 second-order mutated black crows, flying in from a distance, giving the impression that a large dark cloud was approaching.

However, during the negotiation this morning, the battle was even bigger, so this time Zhang Ji was not shocked much.

It’s more about anticipation.

He wanted to know how powerful these second-order mutated animals could be in combat? How much burden can be relieved for them.

Below the flock of birds, the sea of ​​trees swayed, led by two extremely large mutated buffaloes. They ran rampant without any scruples, and some weak trees were directly broken.

Behind them, there were 13 mutant buffaloes that were also not small in size. Although there were only 15 mutant buffaloes in the entire team, when they ran, they gave people the aura of a thousand troops.

During the three days when the spiritual energy was revived, Ye Feng did not let the animals under him idle.

Let them go around the city and collect as many mutant animals as possible.

In particular, he focused on finding targets for the same animals he had contracted with.

A total of 39 mutated buffaloes have been found, and they are now divided into three teams, with exactly 13 in each team.

What makes Ye Feng feel regretful is that the number of mutant buffaloes in the wild is really small. If the quota is full, a third-level mutant buffalo commanding 200 second-level mutant buffaloes will be a spectacular run.

"So strong!" Zhang Ji couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the two groups of mutant animals that were getting closer.

"Sigh~ The Dragon King Palace has just been rebuilt, so we can only use them to make up the numbers. Think about how majestic the army of 100,000 alien beasts was back then. It's a pity that that battle..."

Zhang Ji, who was listening attentively, felt scratched in his heart when he saw that the other party did not continue speaking.

"Parrot Messenger, was the Dragon King's Palace so powerful back then? Then why did no God's Palace survive later?" Zhang Ji couldn't help but ask.

"This is a secret. You can't say it. You'd better forget what I just said." The mutant parrot glanced at the other person and said lightly.

He hasn't compiled it yet, so what can he say?

Although Zhang Ji looked a little disappointed, he quickly cheered up and then ordered the soldiers around the mine to cooperate with friendly forces in defense.

But then, a surprising scene occurred.

The group of mutated buffalo stopped after entering the mine's defense circle, and then they began patrolling around the perimeter of the mine.

Wherever the mutated buffalo herd passed, the mutant insects that were quite crazy before fled away like mice seeing cats.

And even if the mutant buffalo herd left, they didn't dare to come back.

Even if there are occasionally a few mutated insects that are ferocious in nature and unwilling to leave, they will be spotted by the mutated black crows hovering in the sky and quickly eliminated.

Even if insects mutate, they have no power to resist against mutated animals of the same level.

For the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment, the extremely troublesome mutated insects were solved like child's play.

This scene made all the soldiers and officers a little dumbfounded, and they even wondered if they had not woken up.

Zhang Ji saw everything clearly through the telescope. While he was shocked, he was also full of doubts.

He originally thought that even if he could finally drive away the mutated insects, he would still have to fight for at least one battle.

But fortunately, there is an understanding bird next to him.

Therefore, he asked directly: "Parrot Messenger, why is this happening?"

"Why else? The weak eat the strong, this is the law of nature!"

"In the eyes of those mutated insects, you are food, so of course they will attack like crazy."

"But we are predators. Isn't it normal for them to run away?" the mutant parrot said with a smile.

Zhang Ji felt as if his heart had been stabbed with a knife and violently stirred.

"Haha, just kidding. The two mutated buffaloes in the lead have reached the third level. Their aura is enough to scare away any second-level mutant creatures. So wherever they pass, the mutant insects will run away."

"But this aura won't stay for long, so let your soldiers be vigilant and don't get hurt by those mutated insects that kill them." The mutated parrot reminded.

Zhang Ji felt a little better, but he understood that many true words were often said in a joking manner, such as what the other party said just now.

"Understood, I will tell them to pay attention." Zhang Ji said immediately.

"Okay, I'm going to the next mine." After the mutant parrot said this, he immediately took off.

Next, when Ye Feng went to the other two mines, he never encountered anyone pointing a gun at him again. It was obvious that the teams stationed here had received the notice in advance.

With the active cooperation of the military, everything went very smoothly, and the other two teams quickly took over the defense of the remaining mines.

After doing all this, Ye Feng controlled the mutant parrot and flew towards Yangcheng City.

This is the first official cooperation between the two parties. Under such circumstances, the mutant panda, the image ambassador, will naturally not be idle.

Ye Feng doesn't know how to let the mutant panda gather the power of faith, so now he needs to keep trying to establish a positive image for the other party.

Soon, the mutated parrot found the giant panda and at the same time expressed its intention to the staff who were following the giant panda.

I hope that the municipal department will cooperate with this action and launch a special topic or live broadcast to promote the friendly cooperation between the two parties.

Naturally, it was impossible for the municipal department to refuse the mutant parrot's proposal, and the Propaganda Department soon took action.

The people who feel the most about all these changes are neither the soldiers who are defending nor the people who have received the notice and are ready to watch the live broadcast.

It's the sweaty workers in the mines.

In the Hongyan Mine, a dark-skinned middle-aged man was holding a pickaxe to tilt up a huge boulder.

But underneath the rock, there was a mutated centipede half a meter long.

Seeing this centipede, the middle-aged man was instantly frightened and his face turned pale. He yelled in horror, dropped the stone and ran back.

However, his reaction was quick, and the mutated centipede's reaction was even faster. It bent its body and then shot out like a slingshot, heading straight for the middle-aged man's back.

The centipede's sharp mouthparts were getting closer and closer to the middle-aged man's neck. If it pounced on it, the middle-aged man would probably be killed in the next moment.

Naturally, everyone around saw this scene, and even the soldiers patrolling not far away saw it, but it all happened so fast that they had no time to rescue.

Just when everyone thought that the worker was dead, a black shadow swooped down from high in the sky and grabbed the centipede with one claw before it could touch the middle-aged man.

Then the sharp claws tightened, and with huge force, they cut the centipede into three pieces.

The mutated black crow, which easily defeated a mutated centipede, flapped its wings and flew back into the sky, circling around with its eyes fixed downwards, ready to strike again at any time.

"I'm scared to death." The middle-aged man sat down on the ground, breathing heavily.

"Old Zhang, you are lucky this time. When you go back, you should burn paper and thank your ancestors for their blessings." At this time, the nearby workers had gathered around, and some people said with lingering fear.

Lao Zhang, who was sitting on the ground, heard his coworker say this. He nodded first and then shook his head.

"Of course we have to worship our ancestors, but we also have to thank these mutated creatures. I heard they are called Dragon King Hall, right! Statues will be built all over the city in the future, and I will also go and pay homage then."
