"Hoo--! Hoo--!"

In the field next to Otuwal Town.

Although the six alien creatures had four limbs, they still crawled like beasts instead of walking on two legs like humans, and they also made very heavy breathing sounds.

And they are still patrolling the corpses of the infantrymen who have expired, using spikes to pierce the brains of the corpses to ensure whether these infantrymen are completely dead.

"Tiu! TiuTiu!"

At this moment, very faint gunshots were heard from all around the field.

"Poof! Poof!"

The alien creature closest to the woods was violently attacked the moment the gun was fired.

The alien creature's hard shell only withstood a few warheads, while the vast majority shot straight through the shell, causing serious damage to it.

The one who attacked this alien creature was none other than Ghost Agent led by Prus.

Thanks to the assistance of Optical Camouflage, it seems that the six alien creatures were successfully confused.

"Hoo--!"

But suddenly, the alien creature under attack made a cry that sounded like some kind of signal.

Then, a large number of alien creatures hidden in the wreckage of armored vehicles, ruined buildings in towns, and in the soil emerged.

It's like the six alien creatures on the field are just bait, waiting to catch the 'fish' Prus and the ghosts.

!!!

Inside the helmet.

After discovering this situation, Prus could no longer maintain his cold and calm face, but showed an expression of disbelief.

She did not expect that a target she randomly selected for attack would be ambushed by alien creatures.

"Boom-! Boom-!"

"Boom! Boom-!"

Immediately afterwards, some alien creatures began to fire a large amount of orange-light cannon fire towards their location, immediately plowing the soil of the field again.

"Buzz~-! Uh!"

Some shells directly hit the Ghost Agents. Even if AT Energy Shield took effect, they still blew these ghosts away for a certain distance.

"Colonel! These beasts can see us!" a ghost shouted.

"Remove Optical Camouflage and retreat quickly to the north. We won't be able to hold on for long!"

Prus discovered that something was wrong and immediately issued instructions to deal with it.

"Yes!"

As soon as Prus finished speaking, all the Ghost Agents released the effect of Optical Camouflage and quickly retreated towards the north while covering each other's fire.

With the assistance of T-Virus Serum and Biochemical Power Armor, the movement speed of Ghost Agent is several times faster than the UNSC army infantry.

But one of these alien creatures is also extremely fast.

Moreover, after they reach a certain speed, they no longer use their limbs to crawl, and their entire body 'deforms' again.

Their originally seemingly hard spikes began to become soft and elongated, turning into a tentacle-like shape, with many barbs growing on the tentacles.

Next, their main bodies curled up into a ball and rolled forward, throwing out those spiked tentacles.

The barbs grab the ground and pull back, thereby speeding up their rolling speed.

"Colonel! These beasts are trying to bite us! They are going too fast!"

A man from behind, Ghost Agent, who was running and fighting back, spoke loudly in the communication.

"Damn it..."

Prus couldn't help but curse when he found that the situation had changed once again. Now even voluntary retreat was a problem.

She couldn't directly call the Pelican to come to the rescue. After all, those alien creature's gunners could also shoot down the Pelican without armed escorts.

Then she could only open remote communication and contact Torfu Village's command, "This is Colonel Prus!

My men and I were ambushed and required artillery support and a retreat."

"Ambush?!" The technician on the communications side was also stunned for a while, but quickly replied:

"Yes, Colonel, I have submitted your request for support, and it is a reply from the boss himself.

It is expected that the airborne troops of Infinity will arrive at your location in four to seven minutes."

"Four to seven minutes... Okay, I get it."

Prus stopped communicating with the headquarters, then turned to face the chasing alien creatures, held the Gauss Rifle in his hand and said loudly:

"Attention everyone! Our reinforcements will arrive soon, please stay alive until then!

Also, teach these ungrateful alien beasts a lesson and let them know that we Ghost Agent are not easy to mess with either!"

"Yes! Colonel!"

The ghosts who received the order no longer focused on retreating and escaping, but gathered around Prus, preparing to fight the group of alien creatures.

"Tiu! TiuTiu!"

The Gauss Rifle, which was equipped with a special suppressor, still emitted subtle gunfire, and a large number of armor-piercing Spike Rounds were shot at the "rolling" alien creatures.

After the alien creature was attacked, it also chose to resume its crawling posture and fight with ghosts such as Prus.

At this time.

An alien creature with an orange light emitting from its mouth jumped straight towards Pulis in the center of the team.

"Seeking death!"

Prus immediately threw Gauss Rifle in his hand and let it hang on Biochemical Power Armor's chest. He reached his right hand behind his waist and took out a 'dagger' about half a meter long.

Hold it well.

"Buzz~--!"

Then the dagger made a harsh sound, and the blade seemed to 'shake' out of sight due to the vibration.

The moment before the alien creature landed, it shot several of its spikes at Prus.

"Tum! Tum!"

But Prus easily dodged the attack and let those spikes pierce into the soil of the field, making a muffled sound.

Prus escaped the attack, but left without thinking.

"Buzz! Boo--!"

Instead, she jumped and used the 'dagger' in her hand to successfully penetrate and cut off the alien creature's head.

The alien creature that suffered such a fatal blow, just like a spider when it died, its entire body immediately shrank into a ball, and its shell and spikes also lost their activity.

Prus's personal combat power is already very high, and with the injection of the improved version of T-Virus Serum, his physical fitness is already at the pinnacle of human beings.

With the 'Shock Dagger' specially made for her by the Hive, she can easily deal with such alien creatures.

The moment she landed, Prus took back Shock Dagger and replaced the magazine for her Gauss Rifle.

The Ghost Agents surrounding her also used the 'Superman' effect brought by T-Virus Serum and Biochemical Power Armor. Even if they were surrounded by dozens of alien creatures, they still seemed to be at ease.

But as the number of alien creatures gradually increased, Prus and the ghosts began to feel a lot of pressure.

Especially the opponent's spike attack, which consumes AT Energy Shield more than Pulse Rifle's Caseless Explosive Rounds.

It can be said that if Prus and others were replaced by elites like Helljumpers or the Mad Tooth Shark, they would face the same fate as the UNSC Army infantry, and they would be massacred unilaterally.
