Chapter 309 Brutal Creatures
Shen Cheng sighed secretly, "I hope so. Is there still no news about the other soldiers?"
Cheng Chen nodded. "Captain Yu is selecting people to search the area and leave a mark. I believe that as long as the soldiers are still alive, they will definitely find this place."
Shen Cheng nodded, "That's fine, just be careful."
The creatures that attacked them before were very aggressive, just like ferocious beasts, and they also reported this situation to Yanjing.
Officials said that the second team had entered the Gutas plane this morning and was following the traces they left behind.
Ding Ying thought of the creatures that attacked them yesterday and looked a little worried. "Although we repelled those creatures yesterday, judging by the situation, they will definitely come looking for us again. I wonder how many of their companions they will bring with them."
Chen Cheng was also worried about this. After all, this was someone else's planet, and they had no idea how many of the other side there were. It was very dangerous to stay here, but if they continued walking and encountered creatures of other races, it was hard to say whether they could deal with them.
"That's why I told us to stay here. Looking at the map, we haven't left the forest we saw when we came in. As long as we wait for reinforcements, even if those creatures attack again, we won't necessarily lose."
Yesterday's battle was fierce. It was the first time they used weapons on this planet, and the battle situation was originally 50-50. Fortunately, he bought a lot of medicine from Lu Jiu and saved more than ten seriously injured soldiers. Otherwise, yesterday might not have been a situation without casualties.
Now Shen Cheng and his men can only hope that reinforcements will arrive soon.

Subsequent troops departed from Yanjing and advanced through the jungle fully armed.
The superiors gave instructions that there were extremely aggressive creatures on this planet, and they had to follow the marks to find the advance troops as soon as possible, otherwise the advance troops might suffer a more serious secondary attack.
Soon someone found the mark, which was a blue symbol. It was obvious that it was left by Earthlings, and there was also an arrow marked on it.
"Keep moving forward." The team followed in an orderly manner.
They can contact Chen Cheng using communication tools, but this is not Earth, so just sending a location will be enough. They can only tell the other side if they find a mark.
Shen Cheng saw the message sent by the captain of the reinforcements, describing the mark left behind and the surrounding environment.
"The reinforcements should be not far from us. I remember this mark was left by you, Captain Ding."
He showed the information to Ding Ying, who nodded after reading it. "Yes, I left it there." She flipped open the map she had drawn, "It's definitely not far from us. If we can successfully find the mark next, we should be able to reach this location in about fifteen minutes."
As they marched, they kept records of the distance.
They were also lucky. When the strange wind blew, several people grabbed the trees beside them. In addition, everyone had a tacit understanding and held on to the people next to them tightly. In this way, they formed a group and managed to keep almost half of the people in place.
However, some people failed to grab the trees around them and were blown away.
·
While Chen Cheng and the others were still quietly waiting for reinforcements to arrive, a whistle sounded outside. It was an enemy attack!
"Those guys are here again!"
“Alert! Alert!”
Several captains immediately stood up and went out, and all the soldiers had drawn their weapons and pointed them in all directions.
The grass not far away was shaking, and it was obvious that something was running through it, and more than one.
It was certain that they were not reinforcements, as the grass was not high enough to hide the human figures, so they could only be those creatures.
Soon they heard a strange cry, and the grass was pulled aside, revealing several humanoid creatures, but they were very short, only about one meter tall, with their faces blocked by strange red flowers and their bodies covered by green leaves.
Although they are not tall, they are very powerful and numerous.
The moment they saw these creatures, the soldiers opened fire, and these short creatures jumped up and tried to jump on the soldiers.
The gun was very powerful. The short creature that jumped up was knocked back by the impact of the bullet before it could get close to them. After falling to the ground, it still ran towards them with its fangs and claws bared.
Although powerful bullets can injure this creature, they are not serious injuries at all.
Under the powerful firepower, the short creatures in the early stage could not get close at all, until more and more dwarfs appeared later, and the situation changed.
Finally, the first short creature broke through the defense and rushed directly towards a soldier. It had amazing jumping ability and jumped directly to the soldier's shoulder. Its face, which was originally a flower, was grinning in the middle, revealing dense fangs.
But the soldier was also professionally trained. He calmly grabbed the man's neck, then took out his pistol and fired several shots at the man's grinning mouth.
Apparently, the mouth is also the softest part of this creature. After a few shots, the short creature squeaking and scratching around with its hands, and the soldier's gloves were torn in a few strokes.
He let go of the short creature, threw it to the ground and stepped on it, then picked up the heavy weapon again and shot it twice in the mouth, finally killing it.
Soon the soldier continued to fight, and when he saw another short creature about to jump on the soldier, he shot it in the head, causing it to fall to the ground.
But even if these soldiers could fight ten at a time, they could not withstand the increasing numbers of the enemy.
Shen Cheng's face darkened, "It seems they have a lot of backup this time." He said as he took out a short creature with a few shots.
After that, more and more short creatures broke through the defense line, and some people began to get injured, but fortunately they could immediately counterattack and kill the other party. However, as the number of creatures increased, the soldiers would always get tired and unable to deal with them.
These creatures looked easy to deal with, but their claws were extremely sharp. If a soldier was a little slow, his cheek would be scratched by their claws.
Just as the creature aimed its next claw at the soldier's neck, a bullet pierced the short creature's grinning mouth, causing it to fall from the soldier's shoulder in pain and roll on the ground.
"Reinforcements are coming!"
I don't know who shouted this, but everyone cheered up again and their morale soared.
The supporting troops also breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully they had made it.
With the arrival of reinforcements, these short creatures knew they were no match for their opponent and began to retreat.
However, Chen Cheng and the others did not chase after them. Not to mention that it was unclear whether all the short men would attack this time, and this was another planet, not the Earth they were familiar with, so they had no idea about this kind of creature.
Shen Cheng quickly received several captains of the reinforcements and invited them into the tent.
After sitting down, he told several captains in detail about what had happened in the past two days and the disappearance of his nephew.
One of the captains patted him on the shoulder and said, "Commander Shen, we're here to bring you some good news. When we were about to meet you, the authorities found the ID of your nephew's communication device and I believe they have already sent it to you. We were all busy fighting just now and didn't have time to pay attention to it. You can take a look now."
Shen Cheng was stunned for a moment, then took out his communication device, and there was indeed a new message.
