Chapter 37: The Black-clawed Mole

According to the route on the map in the corpse's breast pocket, the location of the black-clawed mole should be in the center of the entire moss island, a considerable distance from the edge of the island, and the two did not choose to drive for the night, but walked to the second map marker and stopped.

Not because of exhaustion, but because of the discovery of a steel-clawed mole rat's breath opening.

"It's hard to imagine how many times the black-clawed mole would have to be bigger than the steel-clawed mole to achieve the effect of the previous two wounds. ”

Donald looked at the hole he had found near the rocks near the mound, the size of a normal rabbit hole, which gave him a preliminary judgment on the size of the steel-clawed mole.

The size of the black-clawed mole rat is certainly not capable of surviving in such a place.

"Stay here for a while, at least make sure we didn't come in vain. ”

Donald had always been a pragmatic man, and the black-clawed mole was important, but they weren't sure it was still on the island.

After all, the few corpses I met before should have been dead for a while.

In case you have to travel all day, you will find nothing when you run over, or you will find it, but the other party, as a mutated beast, is extremely fast and difficult to capture.

In the end, because of the waste of too much time, even the steel-clawed mole did not have time to catch it, which was a bit more than worth the loss.

"I'm going to find a suitable squatting position, and there are still some preparations to be made around here,"

It was not so easy to catch the steel-clawed mole, and Anthony took out a rope with a hook and two small mechanical lanterns and a metal bottle with a spout,

"The hook lock is for going up the tree, you are responsible for installing the whale oil lantern, rest assured, the light-sensitive ability of the steel-clawed mole is extremely weak, the light of the whale oil lamp will not even react much to ordinary beasts, I need to illuminate its hole to help me determine the location, this is a spray made from the sap of the tuber of the steel-clawed mole's favorite plant, on the one hand, it can hide our breath, on the other hand, if there is a steel-clawed mole rat underneath, after smelling the smell, there will be a greater chance of choosing it. ”

After saying that, Anthony walked to the right side of the ventilation hole 2 meters away, took a fancy to a branch, and quickly climbed up with the help of a rope, about 5 meters away from the ground, this is to ensure that the action he made when he finally hunted will not produce ground vibrations and let the steel-clawed mole escape in advance.

Donald saw Anthony standing firmly, holding two lanterns, placed them around the entrance of the cave, the blue light completely illuminated the position of the hole, and then took out the spray, and sprayed it backwards in all directions, and the air was filled with a strange smell of grass.

It was a bit difficult for Donald to climb all the way to the bottom of the tree where Anthony was, so he simply stood behind the tree and sprayed around a few more times.

Putting on sunglasses, turning on spiritual vision, and looking through that layer of soil, Donald didn't need to perceive, his method was more direct.

Finger was also called back to Donald at this time, and obediently lay down.

Time passed in waiting, insects chirping, and the light in the woodland grew darker, and Donald figured it would be the darkest time before dawn.

At a certain moment, a red light suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and the location was just below the vent, Donald immediately curled his fingers and tapped the trunk of the tree, and Anthony on it immediately took a pose, holding the trunk with his left hand and holding the short knife in his right hand, ready to throw at any time.

The red figure was constantly crawling up, and the attention of the two people on and under the tree was completely focused at the moment, and a hint of orange-yellow light appeared in Anthony's eyes.

Bang!huh~

At the moment when the steel-clawed mole was about to appear, a gunshot rang out nearby, and the red figure in the field of vision retreated at a very fast speed, and as for the sound of breaking the air behind, it was Anthony's instantaneous burst throwing, and the short knife pierced into the dirt, and the whole handle was submerged!

"Fuck, which bastard shot the gun?"

After waiting for so long, it was finally time to harvest, and all the efforts were scattered by a single shot, Donald burst on the spot, Anthony jumped from the tree with a gloomy face, opened his hand at the hole, and the short knife he threw before broke through the ground and returned to his hand as if it had sensed, without a trace of dirt.

Similarly, Anthony's face was not good-looking, the steel-clawed mole's breathable hole could have been used several times, but that was on the premise of safety, the sound just now and his attack, the result was that the hole would be completely abandoned, and they would have to find a new hole if they wanted to catch the steel-clawed mole.

It's not a waste of time.

Bang~Bang~

The sound of gunfire and vegetation being trampled and scraped in the bushes ahead, Anthony drew another short knife without saying a word.

"Did the fight between the other two groups just now or the people who came later?"

Donald's hands were sealed, and the invisible slave appeared beside him, and he had considered whether to use the invisible slave to capture the steel-clawed mole, but Anthony said that the steel-clawed mole was extremely sentient, and it would also be aware of the energy fluctuations generated by the invisible slave.

After waiting for less than 3 minutes, two people rushed out of the bushes in front of them, Donald picked up the lantern that had been placed on the edge of the cave and shone it directly at them, not to mention the blades of grass on his body, and there were gaps in his clothes and pants, so he should be running away in a panic.

After careful identification, it was confirmed that it was not the same wave of people who had faced before, but two people in a team of 7 people, a man and a woman.

"Hey, why are you shooting, since you're here to catch the steel-clawed mole, don't you know that the steel-clawed mole is very sensitive to sound?"

Donald's tone was very polite, in fact, if it weren't for the fact that neither of them had guns in their hands and were still in a state of escape, it was possible that he would have done it directly.

"Over there, there's a monster over there, it's chasing us! Can you help us! Please!"

The woman at the front saw the two men standing by the rocks, who had been in the same boat as Donald and Anthony at the time of the landing, and had paid a few special attention to their appearance, and now that there were lights, she immediately recognized them.

"Monsters, what's it like!"

Donald shines the light directly on the woman's face.

"It's the same color as a stone, it's about the size of a normal dog, and its two claws are sharp...... When you see someone, you throw yourself at it!"

It was the man who answered, albeit somewhat incoherently, but sketched a rough picture, and Anthony had opened the notebook.

"Its claws, what color?"

"Black, black!"

Extremely aggressive, so it seems that the book is right, they are still walking towards its lair, but it did not expect it to appear and attack these people.

"How's the battle going now, don't you have 7 people, and you can't even beat a monster the size of a dog?"

Donald knew that only 3 of the 7 might have some combat power, so he just wanted to know how they were fighting now.

"If one dies, the two of us can't fight and run first, and the remaining 4 are fighting it!"

The man is sincere, and he said that he can't fight, Donald glanced at his belly and sweating profusely, he really can't fight like this, and he is estimated to die if he goes up.

"What are you doing on Moss Island? You two dare to follow you to the island without even the most basic training?"

While the two were in a trance, Anthony suddenly asked.

"We are from the Adventurers Club, this time we just want to take advantage of the storm week to go to sea and adventure, the captain said that this island is one of the safer islands to go to sea at the moment, and he also hired a few guards, so we ......"

The first thing that came to Donald's mind when he heard this title was the Xenopathic organization, and then he looked the two up and down again, rejecting the idea.

Moss Island is indeed not dangerous, and there is no problem with a few ordinary people under the protection of the aliens, but the luck of these people does not know whether to say good or bad, and they actually bumped into the most dangerous guy on this island at the moment.

"In other words, those of you and the guards are ordinary people?"

Anthony narrowed his eyes, both of them had guessed that these were novices, so they paid for the experienced outlaws to take them to the island for training, and now it seems that this is a group of ordinary people who have not figured out the situation, mixed with a ship carrying the outlaws to sea.

That's the disadvantage of going to sea privately, as long as the money is in place, those captains don't care about the identity of the people on board.

"We don't mean to offend, what we saw before will be treated as if nothing happened, and we will never talk nonsense when we go back, please help us, we are willing to pay. ”

At this time, the man also thought about what happened on the beach before, they were still a little puzzled when they first found that the two groups of people were facing each other on the beach, and then they realized that the people who were on the same boat with them were not ordinary people when they saw the battle that broke out.

Originally, this was an exciting thing, and I wanted to come up and get acquainted, but I was stopped by those guards, telling them to take care of themselves if they didn't want to die, saying that these people are all aliens, strangers who kill people without blinking!

This is a deliberately created image of the alien by the government, of course, they hope that ordinary people and aliens will never meet, but this situation obviously cannot be completely avoided, so the only way to let one of them know the danger of the other party and choose to retreat after seeing it, rather than chasing after them and asking if they have any supernatural abilities.

Bang ~ Bang ~ Bang ~

The gunshots were still ringing out, getting closer.

"Run, there's a monster!"

Three men rushed out of the jungle in front of them one after another, and one of them saw the four people in the woodland and hurriedly reminded them.

A gray-white figure followed behind, and in a short dash, a flying pounce knocked the wounded man on the back leg to the ground, raising a black claw of at least 10 inches high and swinging it down, blood splattered, and the person below twitched twice and then died.

Whew!!

The black-clawed mole did not intend to stop there, and looked up at the few people here, letting out a sharp low roar from its mouth.
