In the southern region of the western battlefield, the retreating Heavenly Sun Battle Team did not go far before they were chased by a large number of mutants. The first to arrive were the fastest high-tier mutants, which were mixed with a large number of ghost species. They approached the Heavenly Sun Battle Team from behind, directly cutting into their ranks, and began a large-scale massacre.
The Heavenly Sun Battle Team's reaction was extremely fast, and they immediately adopted the most urgent measures. Even so, a large number of battle team members died in an instant. The first batch of mutants that arrived were the strongest in the entire Yin City!
Thus, in less than half a day, the Heavenly Sun Battle Team was surrounded by a large number of mutants. They suffered heavy casualties, leaving a trail of corpses as they fled.
At the same time, the Duan Family Battle Team, which was retreating in front of the Heavenly Sun Battle Team, faintly sensed that something was amiss when they failed to contact the members of the final battle team.
At the same time …
Whoosh!
A signal flare soared into the air behind them. It was extremely conspicuous!
Duan Jiangwei's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. Not long after, another two signal flare appeared one after another, both from different geographical locations.
The three signal flare attracted the attention of the rest of the Duan Family Battle Team. Many people panicked. The alliance did not have such a secret signal!
"Lu Chuxue, send a team to take a look," Duan Jiangwei ordered with a sharp look in his eyes.
The other battle teams that had left the western battlefield of Yin City a long time ago also saw the three conspicuous signal flare from different locations. For a moment, all the generals panicked and immediately sent a small team to contact the other battle teams.
The large and empty city, the terrifyingly quiet roads, and the constant fear of mutants suddenly appearing … After leaving the battlefield, everything in the rest of Yin City gave people an unparalleled sense of oppression!
Just as the five battle teams began to move, striving to be the first to know the situation, a large fleet of helicopters had already taken off from Fengyou Town and was rapidly heading toward the western battlefield of Yin City. Each helicopter was filled with the strongest high-tier new humans in the Strategy Department.
As they approached the western battlefield, the pilot in the cabin where Wang Chen was located keenly sensed something strange ahead. "Minister Wang, something's not right up ahead!"
Wang Chen was trimming his beard. When he heard this, he asked nonchalantly, "Why?
The alliance army is in chaos and has suffered heavy casualties? "
"No."
The pilot shook his head after seeing the scene in front of him. He was shocked. "There are mutant corpses all over the ground!
I don't see the alliance army! "
Pa!
The razor in Wang Chen's hand dropped to the ground. He scurried to the window, and as soon as he saw what was in front of him, his eyes widened.
There were so many corpses on the main road that they covered the entire field of vision. As far as the eye could see, there were corpses everywhere. Those were obviously the bodies of mutants. They were densely packed and spread across the entire road. The blood that flowed to the sides had already begun to dry up. It was a sight that made one's scalp tingle!
"What's going on?!" Wang Chen roared furiously.
Sizzle —
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie crackled. The pilot of the other helicopter said, "Sir, a large number of xenogeneics are heading south."
Wang Chen rolled his eyes and immediately ordered, "Chase after them!"
Whoosh!
The helicopter team changed directions and headed south. Soon, a large number of xenogeneics appeared in front of Wang Chen. They looked as if they were chasing something.
"Continue forward!" Wang Chen was so nervous that his hands and feet were sweating.
How could the alliance army of tens of thousands of people disappear? If he didn't see any corpses, then they definitely weren't all dead. Most importantly, the alliance army had disappeared. How could he confirm whether Jin Yangbiao was alive or not?
Just as Wang Chen was feeling extremely anxious, some of the people from the team that Duan Jiangwei had sent in the opposite direction had already returned. However, they were in an extremely sorry state. Almost everyone was seriously injured, and only one-third of them had returned.
"What happened?!" Duan Jiangwei was shocked.
The people who had returned had extremely ugly expressions. One of them had lost his entire right hand, and he hadn't even had time to stop the bleeding. He ran back with all his might. The moment he saw Duan Jiangwei, his eyes turned red. "Sir!
The Heavenly Sun Battalion was … "
Duan Jiangwei's heart skipped a beat. "By what?"
"They were slaughtered by the mutants. Not a single one survived!" The person bit his lip and uttered these shocking words.
Boom!
Duan Jiangwei almost fainted. He bit down hard on the tip of his tongue and forced himself to remain clear-headed.
The rest of the Duan Clan Battalion members who heard this fell silent. Their minds were completely blank!
Slaughtered. Not a single one survived.
The information contained in these few words was powerful enough to shake the entire alliance army!
After a second of shock, Duan Jiangwei asked in a trembling voice, "Where's General Jin Yangbiao?"
A member of the Heavenly Sun Battalion, who had a large piece of flesh dug out of his back, lay on the ground and panted heavily. "We saw General Jin Yangbiao's head on the roof of a building … It was impaled on a metal pillar as a warning to the public."
Whoosh!
The huge emotional impact was like the crashing waves of the sea, fiercely smashing into Duan Jiangwei's heart. This answer was even more unacceptable to him. How was this possible?
They had clearly retreated. They had clearly used the tactic of luring the tiger out of the mountain to move the majority of their troops. Before the Heavenly Sun Battalion had left, there should have been a large number of low-tier mutants gathered on the western battlefield. The high-tier mutants shouldn't have discovered anything unusual.
How could this be …
How could such an accident have happened?
Jin Yangbiao was the most valiant veteran general in Huaxia. He had made countless contributions to the military and was renowned for his numerous military successes. His life's actions could be considered classic generals. During the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he had made great contributions to the human forces!
How could such an expert suddenly die in such a state?
Furthermore …
Duan Jiangwei didn't know what had happened. He also didn't know what kind of despair the Heavenly Sun Battalion, led by Jin Yangbiao, had experienced while the five battalions were retreating!
Not a single person survived. The main force of the strongest battalion, which had nearly ten thousand people, had actually been slaughtered!
"The Mutant King … The Mutant King killed nearly two thousand people."
A member of the Duan Family Battalion said weakly. His despairing eyes were incomparably hollow as he slowly revealed what he knew. "I was hiding in a corner and overheard the conversation of those mutants. The Mutant King appeared. He discovered that we were retreating and immediately attacked the Heavenly Sun Battalion, which was the last to leave. He even ordered all the mutants on the western battlefield to move out. They and the Mutant King intercepted the Heavenly Sun Battalion one after another until they were all killed.
"We were discovered. The mutants have already chased us to the south. The few of us only managed to escape after the other members fought to the death."
