Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The wolves retreated.

    The people who came to the rescue and the besieged caravan gathered together and gave out earth-shattering cheers.

    Chang Heng glanced at the direction of the wolves with a worried expression. The wolf king was too shrewd, and the next journey might not be smooth.

    As a beast that is not very powerful, the gray-spotted wolf is able to gain a place in the plains. It relies on its tenacity to never give up until it reaches its goal. When encountering fierce and powerful prey, it often chooses to retreat and secretly follow it.  Waiting until the prey relaxes its vigilance, it suddenly shows its fangs.

    I hope my worries are unfounded.

    Chang Heng still had a lot of luck in his heart. With the strength of their caravan, as long as they were more vigilant, they wouldn't be afraid of these gray wolves.

    ??¡ª¡ª

    "Brother Mo, did you feel it? There seems to be an earthquake." Xingzai looked around suspiciously, then put his ears to the ground again, and could hear a slight abnormal sound from time to time.

    Earthquakes rarely occur in the Como plain. Even if they do occur, unless you are unlucky and fall into a crack in the ground, the terrain here is flat and there are no small slopes of more than two meters. It is really bad.  What we are afraid of is far less than the threat that wild beasts pose to humans.

    ??Beast?

    These two words popped up unexpectedly in Mo Yan's mind, and his expression changed slightly. Just when he was about to open his mouth to say something, he heard an exclamation from not far away, "The beast is coming, everyone, be careful."

    Without the man¡¯s reminder, Mo Yan saw it himself. A huge beast four meters long and more than two meters high dragged its long body out of the cracked hole in the ground.

    This beast is called a sand scorpion. It is a creature that lives underground for a long time. It has an earthy yellow shell that shines under the friction of sand and stones. It has an armor on the back, which is densely covered with granular protrusions. In the center of the back  There is a pair of middle eyes, and three lateral eyes on each side of the front end. The two huge pincers move from time to time and make a "click" sound. The nearly five-meter-long tail spine bends to the sky above the head, and the barbs are glowing with light.  The blue light is obviously highly poisonous.

    It is not a beast with low strength like the gray spotted wolf. The vital parts of its body are protected by a thick carapace. It is difficult to damage it with less powerful attacks. Although its movement speed is a bit slow, it can  It sprays out a stream of highly corrosive acid and carries out long-distance attacks. In terms of individual strength, it can rank among the top three in the entire Como Plain. Even the first-level war pattern master is no match for it.

    What¡¯s even more frightening is that the sand scorpion is also good at digging holes and traveling underground. In many cases, only when it emerges from the ground does the prey know about it, and it¡¯s too late to run away.

    After recognizing the origin of this beast, the people in the caravan suddenly became confused. If the main force had not rushed to support others and gathered everyone's strength, they might not be afraid of this sand scorpion, but now the main force is exhausted.  There were only three or two big cats and kittens left in the camp, and they hurriedly launched attacks. Occasionally they were hit once, but either there was no response or they were deflected away, which further deepened the fear of everyone in the camp.

    The sand scorpion does not move very fast. If you start to escape now, you may not be able to escape. This is the biggest test of people's hearts.

    When I saw the sand scorpion completely emerging from the crack in the ground and running towards this side.

    "Run¡ª¡ª"

    Finally, someone couldn't bear the huge pressure and turned around and ran behind him. Although he was just an ordinary person, his departure did not have much impact on the strength of the entire team, but the blow to morale was quite big.

    The tattoo master apprentices who stayed behind were not regular combat troops, and their fighting will was not high. When they saw other people's escaping behavior, they were not angry, but they couldn't help but have some other thoughts.

    The only thing that can support them to persevere, apart from their own responsibilities, is the relationship between their employer and employer. After all, although they can run away, they don't have so much energy to take care of the camel beast. Once they run away, what will happen again?  Getting together is a very difficult thing.

    What's more, there are some fragile and soft valuables in this batch. If they are broken and scattered, it will be a huge loss.

    The sand scorpion moved forward against the sparse light shuttle, with a few drops of saliva dripping from the corners of its slightly cracked mouth, which fell to the ground and made a "zizz" sound.

    Smelling the stench brought by the breeze, some people turned pale and could no longer suppress the fear in their hearts. They turned around and ran in the opposite direction to the beast.

    "ah¡ª¡ª"

    The sand scorpion sprayed out a stream of acid, accurately hitting the man who turned and ran away dozens of meters away. Hearing a scream, the man stopped and looked back, with a look of horror on his face.  , as if he wanted to express something, but before he could say anything, the exposed skin started to open.It started to rot, and in less than ten seconds, the man turned into a pile of yellow water.

    Looking at the only piece of clothing left not far away that kept emitting white smoke, Xingzai couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. His body was trembling slightly, but he still insisted on refusing to leave. His only  The property was the camel beast and the goods on it, which were tied to the other camel beasts in the camp. How could he leave.

    He silently clenched the stick, but a look of perseverance appeared on his slightly immature face. At the last moment, he would give the beast a hard blow even if he died.

    Then he remembered the elder brother he had just met. He didn't have the same reason why he couldn't leave. "Mo" He was about to persuade him to leave. He turned around and looked around. He saw Mo Yan's shadow somewhere.  A thought came to my mind: Brother Mo ran really fast.

    When no one in the camp noticed, Mo Yan walked out of the camp quietly. Not far away, he drove the "Turkey" around the edge of the battlefield.

    After such a long period of practice, his shooting accuracy at a distance of 500 meters has been significantly improved. The larger size of the Sand Scorpion objectively made Mo Yan's aiming easier.

    The familiar blue light gradually took shape at his fingertips. Without hesitation, he pointed his finger at the empty point and flew a sniper shuttle as thick as his index finger towards the Sand Scorpion a few hundred meters away.

    In just the blink of an eye, the blue light shuttle accurately hit the carapace on the back of the sand scorpion.

    The sudden light shuttle made the hearts of everyone in the caravan accelerate a few times. In just a short time, five people had died in the hands of the Sand Scorpion, and their attacks hit the Sand Scorpion's body.  Physically, there was no pain or itching, and the Sand Scorpion continued to move forward at a slow and steady pace.

    "Silk¡ª¡ª"

    A sharp and harsh sound came from the Sand Scorpion's body, and where the blue light shuttle hit, a trace of green liquid could be seen faintly emerging.

    When the "sniper" was originally designed, it not only had a far enough range, but was also quite powerful. Among the first-order grain stones, there were probably very few that were more powerful than it.

    ps: I¡¯m about to go to work, and I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t have much energy to take care of the book review area in the future. If any students are willing to be the deputy moderator of this book, just apply directly.
