Resurrection Empire-Chapter 977 - 375: Morale Collapses (Part 3)

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, the clueless Hunting Team gradually approached the pass, with about one-third of them entering inside.

At this moment, the Hunting Team's formation was a bit chaotic, and many were impatiently squeezing their way in.

Their goal was not to rescue anyone inside, but rather to get their hands on the equipment buried under the rubble.

Many were already quietly dreaming of making a fortune.

Especially the Commander of this team, whose personal equipment was now worth nearly eighty thousand Source Star Coins.

He thought that once this scavenging was done, his equipment would be worth at least two hundred thousand, enabling him to go toe-to-toe with several giants within the Hunting Team.

Just then, a dazzling light suddenly illuminated the backside of the pass.

Those who reacted quickly immediately turned their heads to the side, only to see dozens of black shadows suddenly appear on the nearby hill.

Almost every shadow had a flare of light emerging.

Enemy attack!

The person opened their mouth to shout, but could only make hoarse noises, unable to emit any sound.

A bullet had already pierced through his throat.

As consciousness was about to sink, he finally heard the sound of gunfire.

But this person wasn't the most unfortunate; the truly miserable ones were those hit by the positions targeted by Hu Yang's modified stacked heavy artillery.

A fierce explosion erupted in the crowd, tearing many bodies into debris in an instant.

The Commander who had entered inside the pass was jolted awake from his dream.

First, he wanted to proceed further, but he then heard the frontline personnel reporting that the valley was blocked by falling rocks, so he could only activate the floating device to fly over from above.

He was about to ascend, but saw one of his Armored Soldiers take off first, only to immediately be hit by two guided Rockets fired from the hillside behind, striking down the first mover on the spot.

The Commander, while deflecting the metal shrapnel shot from the exploding rockets, quickly calculated the situation in his mind.

Ascending was impossible; whoever dared to fly up would be a sitting duck, the first to die.

Thus, he changed his command, yelling, "Calm down, counterattack! We have the numbers! Charge back! We can annihilate them!"

Some people actually believed his lies, momentarily calming down, and bravely charging toward the hillock where Hu Yang and others were hiding, using their fallen comrades or cover as shields.

But from the opposite side, Hu Yang's voice shouted through a loudspeaker, "Still charging, huh? Look at your Commander, leading the way in running away."

Those Hunters at the forefront turned their heads, indeed seeing the Commander, clad in luxurious and exquisite Armor, running far from the side of the pass.

This situation caused chaos in their ranks as these Hunters, without much resolve, turned and ran as well.

Seeing the moment ripe, Hu Yang stood up, "Pursue them! Drive them until they're afraid to look back! Charge!"

Having said this, wearing only a simple Combat Suit without Armor, and carrying a heavy micro-battalion control pack, Hu Yang took big steps, charging forward.

Seeing this, the others refused to let her take the lead, quickly following and rushing out, swiftly overtaking Hu Yang, and pouncing down the hillock like tigers.

An extraordinary spectacle occurred.

A mere hundred or so people managed to chase nearly three hundred into dropping their helmets and armor, fleeing all the way.

Having pursued them for nearly a mile, Hu Yang calculated the distance internally and loudly commanded via communicator, "Stop! Clean up the battlefield, gather the equipment!"

By this time, her contestants revered her like a deity, executing orders with precision without needing military training.

Thus, everyone turned around and began picking up equipment along the way, finishing off remaining enemies.

Approximately ten minutes later, Hu Yang and the others returned to the pass at D3 channel.

Now, she had the leisure to tally the battle results.

In this battle, they annihilated nearly two hundred enemies, gaining resources valued close to two million Source Star Coins.

Furthermore, due to the enemy's inability to organize effective counterattacks, a large amount of consumable materials carried along were largely preserved.

Especially ammunition and energy modules, which solved the urgent needs of Hu Yang's team.

While others were celebrating victory, Hu Yang ordered some people to return to the D3 channel, to retrieve the equipment buried along with nearly five hundred people earlier.

...

In the card seat, Zhou Ya wondered, "Excavating things buried under the soil isn't easy, does she not fear wasting too much time and getting blocked by the Hunting Team's subsequent reinforcements? Even though the Hunting Team suffered heavily, they've been expanding all along, there are still nearly five hundred people, and they're all elite Central Army with strong combat power."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "On the battlefield, there's something called morale. Morale is important. Having been defeated twice by Hu Yang's smaller forces, taking two large hits, the Hunting Team definitely won't dare to advance recklessly anymore. They're going to change their tactics."

Zhou Ya: "Ah?"

Ren Zhong: "If you don't believe me, look."

Zhou Ya adjusted the view to a place just one kilometer outside the pass.

There, the remnants that had been routed had just joined with this so-called Central Army.

The commanders of the Hunting Team looked grim-faced and extremely solemn.

The Central Army no longer advanced, instead remaining on standby.

Everything was as Ren Zhong had predicted, the Hunting Team's morale had already disintegrated.
