Chapter 176: Mutant Scorpion

In fact, there are not only sand and cacti in the desert, but also many desert plants and desert animals. Most of the animals in the desert are nocturnal, they are nocturnal and the sun is scorching during the day, they find a shady place to sleep, and only come out at night to move and forage for food. Like desert plants, these desert animals are highly adaptable, and in order to avoid the heat of the desert, they will seek out places where the sun does not get enough to hide, and they also have a survival strategy to adapt to the desert environment.

Water scarcity is undoubtedly the greatest threat to all desert life. Some of the smaller desert animals simply hide underground, burrowing under soil or sand to escape the scorching heat of the ground. Many mammals, reptiles, insects, and all desert amphibians dig holes, and clever rodents even plug their holes to keep out the hot, dry air.

The half-meter-long sand lizard crawled out of the sand, looked around, and went straight to our tent, and I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw it dare to crawl over, and two bone spurs shot into the sand in front of it, splashing a puff of yellow sand, and the sand lizard almost jumped up in shock, let out a scream and turned its head and fled into the distance.

"Zhang Yang, what is it?" Although the sound was not loud, it still woke Liang Xiaolin up, among these people, except for me, she has a certain amount of force, and her alertness is higher than that of the other women, she looked out of the tent vigilantly, and did not see anything with a puzzled expression.

I whispered, "It's a sand lizard, I've chased it away......"

Liang Xiaolin was relieved, nodded, and was about to lie down and sleep again, when suddenly a scream came from the direction where the sand lizard fled, and the sound was extremely poignant, this sound was extremely harsh in this silent and empty desert, and immediately woke up several other people, and asked me sleepily what happened.

I looked at the direction where the voice came from with a solemn face, and waved my hand to signal everyone not to squeak, that terrible scream was made by the sand lizard, could it be that I encountered a natural enemy?

Just when I was contemplating and observing, a few black shadows appeared behind the sand dunes where the sand lizard disappeared, and the women in the moon field couldn't see clearly, but I could clearly see their appearance, those few scorpions were huge, with black and shiny carapaces, and a long and thin tail behind it, longer than its body, and the tail was also divided into sections, and the tip of the scorpion tail had a barbed spine, three pairs of light black feet, and a pair of huge claws in front of each clamped a section of the body of the sand lizard and kept sending it to the mouth, It turned out that the sand lizard had run there and been dismembered by the giant scorpions.

"How can there be such a big scorpion? Like calves...... "The giant scorpions slowly crawled towards this side, and the women had already seen their figures, and they exclaimed one by one.

"There are five of them, they must be mutated scorpions!" I secretly guarded, the direction of these five mutant scorpions crawling is to pass through our tent, just looking at their size has made people feel terrifying, looking at their head makes people feel even more cautious, standing upright upside down with a long scorpion tail, the tail hook is black and shiny, obviously poisonous, and these five scorpions have four eyes on their heads, each mutant scorpion's eyes are dark green.

Level 3 Mutant Scorpion! Watching these five mutant scorpions crawl towards this side with the corpses of the sand lizards, I quietly covered the tent, only revealing a corner enough for me to observe, I don't want to do much, can I not provoke them or don't provoke, but it backfired, our tent rose flat in this desert, such an obvious target suddenly made those mutant scorpions interested.

Seeing that they had deviated from their original route and crawled towards the tent, I smiled bitterly and said, "You are all in the tent, don't go out, I'll kill them!" ”

"Be careful...... Mo Yue grabbed my arm nervously, I gave her a reassuring smile and lifted the tent and got out.

As soon as I emerged from the tent, the mutated scorpions became excited, and a pair of pincers creaked towards me, and I burst out of my bone spurs with a loud cry.

The hardness of their carapace was beyond my expectations, the bone spurs shot on the carapace of these mutant scorpions were bounced away, my attack stimulated the five mutant scorpions, and they all accelerated their crawling speed, the first mutant scorpion was the first to run in front of me, it stopped at my attack distance, and the barbed spines behind sprinted directly towards me, I quickly turned to one side, although there was bone armor outside the body, but I didn't want to test the poison with my body, after flashing, a hand knife slashed, just cut on the tail of the mutant scorpion, only to hear a bangThe long tail swung to the side, but I didn't cut it off.

I have a lot of strength, I didn't expect the mutant creature in the desert to be so resilient, watching the mutant scorpion that I attacked chased after it again, this time I chose to attack its head, if the tail is not a weak point, then attack the rest of its body.

"Ka!" The punch slammed into its head, and the mutant scorpion was smashed into the sand nest by me, and the carapace of the head finally shattered, and a puff of green plasma burst out of the broken carapace.

"Dang!" I felt a shock in my back, it turned out that a mutant scorpion went around my back and stung me with its barb sting, although the spike was sharp, but it did not pierce my bone armor, I turned around and kicked the mutant scorpion away, and saw two more clattering pincers next to me to clamp towards my body, the spider silk in my left hand sprayed out, and one of them was stuck to its claws and struggled on the ground.

I spotted another mutant scorpion stabbing at me, and blocked it with my arm, and my arm was shocked to the point that it was numb, this thing has a lot of strength to sting people! Before I could let it pull back, I grabbed the long tail joint that was the thickness of my wrist, and saw the mutant scorpion that I kicked away pounce again, and threw the mutant scorpion at it as soon as I threw it up.

"Kara!" This time the force was extremely strong, and the two mutant scorpions collided together, and the carapace at the impact site immediately shattered a lot, and several of the claws I threw up were broken.

"Haha! A few little things dare to provoke! "I couldn't help but laugh at the three mutant scorpions struggling in the sand, and the one that was bound by the spider silk was smashed in the head with a punch from me." Hey? No, what about the other one? I wondered, only then did I notice that one of the five mutant scorpions had run, and after the danger was lifted, several women also got out of the tent, Xia Kite pointed in one direction and said, "Big brother, that one ran over there......"

I looked in the direction of Xia Kite's finger, and the mutant scorpion quickly climbed over a sand dune and disappeared, and I couldn't help laughing: "This little thing is running very fast!" ”

"That's nature! Big brother is extremely brave, no matter how terrifying these mutant creatures are, they are not the same! Xia Kite's excited little face flushed, looking at the little stars in my eyes.

I laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "In my hometown, there is a kind of scorpion that is a full scorpion, which is the most enjoyable to use to soak in wine and fry it, but I didn't expect these little things to mutate so big!" What an unexpected ......."

Su Mingrui thought for a while and said, "I've also heard of your full scorpion, it's not comparable to this......

I smiled, and saw that the mutant scorpion bound by my spider silk was still struggling, and kicked it in the head, the carapace hardness of these mutant scorpions was like the hardness of the bone armor of a third-level bone armor zombie, and I couldn't help but attack it so hard. After killing all four mutant scorpions, I pulled out the dark green crystal nuclei from their heads and said to the girls, "Go back!" I buried their corpses, and it was less than two o'clock! ”

Hearing me say this, they all nodded and went back to their tents, and after dragging the carcasses of mutant scorpions the size of calves for some distance, I buried them in a sand pit by hand.

The creatures in this desert are all diurnal and nocturnal, even these mutated creatures are the same, they all hide under the sand, and only crawl out when they go out to forage, no wonder they don't find anything abnormal during the day! It seemed that I would have to be more careful these days, and as I walked towards the tent I pondered, when I heard a rustling sound in the distance, which sounded like sifting beans from far and near.

"What bird thing?" I was stunned to follow the reputation, but this look made my hair stand on end, only to see that behind the sand dune appeared a number of swarthy figures, all as big as calves, all of them were such mutant scorpions, densely crawling towards me, I can't count how many.
