Chapter 124: Meet Again
Perhaps because of the discovery in the crocodile's nest, in addition to the heavy expressions on the faces of the accompanying workers, Mr. Zhou and his entourage, Professor Yan and other scientists were a little excited.
Professor Yan and others have been chatting with their voices lowered, discussing the factors of crocodile evolution.
The ship's staff counted the remaining numbers, and when they got close to the crocodile pool, the bodyguards and trialists were all extremely alert, and only eight of the temporarily conscripted workers died.
The team shrank a lot, and those who survived were terrified, not knowing what would happen next.
Wolf Yi whispered a few words in Mr. Zhou's ear, this person was well-trained, and his voice was very low, Song Qing was attentive, and he only vaguely heard him mention the bullet.
Previously, in order to kill the crocodile, the bodyguards carried out a wave of strafing with guns, even if Mr. Zhou had made full preparations before going to the island, and the arms and materials were very complete.
But man is not as good as heaven, first the ship was shipwrecked at sea, and only a part of what was left was gained.
As a result, most of the people hired by Mr. Zhou died before the ship docked, and not many survived, and the things he could bring were limited, which further disrupted Mr. Zhou's initial calculations.
Immediately after going to the island, the crocodile's strength exceeded the team's expectations at the beginning, and it must have consumed more bullets than it had estimated at the beginning.
Even if there are still some bullets now, if the mutated creatures that the team encounters in the future are still as difficult to deal with as crocodiles, I am afraid that the remaining bullets may not be enough.
After there are no bullets, everyone can imagine what kind of results will happen to the group on this island.
Mr. Zhou's expression was a little solemn, but he didn't say anything, just nodded his head slightly, beckoned the other workers to pick up the packages left by the victims, and everyone continued to move forward.
It was already dawn, and although there was a thin fog on the island, the road ahead was probably clear.
The two bodyguards who took the lead changed people, Wolf 1 and Wolf 2 followed Mr. Zhou with guns, and Zhou Xueli still helped Mr. Zhou forward.
In search of a direct discharge pipe to the institute, the team had to follow this puddle.
The crocodiles should have lived in a low-lying area, and the team walked along the river bank for about half an hour before the woods gradually left behind.
Below the riverbank, the current is hidden in the abundant aquatic plants, and it slowly becomes clear.
This is supposed to be the inland river of the island that Mr. Zhou said, but because of the long time, the river has almost dried up, and only some small streams that are not deep remain.
When the river dries up, some riverbeds are exposed, which is why the terrain is uneven.
On the other side of the stream is still dense woods, and a short distance to the right is a field of wild grass, which grows many and tall, with unknown flowers on them, and looks like the grass is endless when viewed from below.
Everyone walked for more than half an hour, sweating profusely.
Psychological pressure and the heavy package that many people are carrying, have overwhelmed many people, a little wind and grass around, can make people tremble, so that everyone physical consumption is faster, if not worried about the danger after falling behind, I am afraid that many people can no longer grit their teeth and persevere.
Amid the gasps, although no one asked to rest for a while, the pace of the team gradually slowed down.
Song Qingxiao frowned, looked up and looked forward, and the seventh who had been observing her noticed a slight change in her expression for the first time, and asked:
"What's wrong?"
The road along the river bank is bumpy, and the moss and weeds are covered with uneven stones, and it is quite strenuous to walk.
But these journeys were not a problem for the trialists whose physical fitness was different from ordinary people, and her frowning movements should not be due to fatigue.
Although Mr. Zhou did not make it clear this time, Song Qingxiao was still at the end of the line, and when No. 7 asked abruptly, except for a few scientists who discussed in a low voice, the people around him pursed their mouths, and no one dared to speak out.
So as soon as Seven spoke, it attracted the attention of everyone in the team.
Even Professor Yan and the others, who were discussing the reason for the change of the crocodile, stopped talking, and as soon as Mr. Zhou's footsteps stopped, everyone stopped and instinctively turned their heads to look back.
Before Song Qingxiao could make a sound, someone in the team suddenly screamed:
"Ah......h
The cry was extremely poignant, with a trilling voice: "I seem to have been bitten by something." ”
Everyone was already like a frightened bird, as soon as they heard someone screaming, the people around them were busy scattering with things on their backs, and soon the screaming person was the center, and a vacant space with a diameter of about two meters was vacant next to him.
"What happened?" Once someone screamed, no matter whether the matter was clarified or not, Zhou Xueli first helped Mr. Zhou out of a distance of several meters, and a group of bodyguards formed a human wall with guns to isolate him from danger, and Zhou Xueli asked loudly.
Song Qing strode forward, and the man was still screaming:
"Ah...... Go down, go down! ”
He shook his legs as he shouted, and a huge spider was hugging his thigh.
The spider was covered with fluff, shiny and black, and its legs were extremely long, the size of a fist, and it crawled very fast holding the man's legs, and a translucent silk web condensed on the man's leg as it crawled.
This scene made people's scalps tingle, and even No. 7, who followed up, couldn't help frowning and took two steps back.
The man who had crawled up to his lap saw that it was useless to shake his leg, so he reached out and tried to shoot it, and his nostalgia for life overcame his fear of the terrible spider, and the man grabbed the spider and threw it on the ground.
But when he threw the huge spider out, a translucent spider silk visible to the naked eye stuck to his palm, and the other end was attached to the spider.
This spider silk seems to be stronger than the silk spit out by ordinary spiders, and the spider was thrown out more than ten centimeters, and it did not fall to the ground, but it was the spider silk that swung in mid-air.
Before the spider could breathe a sigh of relief, the next moment the spider swung twice in mid-air, then held on to the spider silk and began to climb up quickly.
It crawled so fast that in the blink of an eye it had crawled back to half the distance of the spider's silk, and when the man saw this, his face turned blue with fright, and he shook his hands desperately like a wolf.
With this flick, the spider was thrown out like a swing.
The translucent spider silk was stretched out, and the spider flew out with a 'whoosh' with the force of this movement, and landed on the head of a bodyguard with a 'snap'.
