Chapter 45: The Monsters Assemble
Seeing the ghouls in front of him being submerged, the hermit crab did not intend to let go of the humans who had invaded its chassis. The hermit crab spotted the direction that Caward had left, and quickly crossed its legs on the ground. meet
It does not dodge when it reaches the deep pit of the swamp, and the huge advantage of six legs makes it walk on the ground on the black swamp.
This is a bitter thing for the Kaward who escaped in front, where the hermit crab can walk. He may not be able to walk, and must always jump to avoid the swamp and avoid getting stuck in it. Even so, the sacrifice of his companions bought him a lot of time. As long as you flee back to the gate, the hot weapons in the hands of the overseers are not vegetarians, and the big guy will be left to them to deal with when the time comes.
Kaward was running with all his might, leaving the hermit crab far behind.
Suddenly, around a corner. Kavod tripped over something and flew straight forward a few meters away. Falling face down on the ground, this time he fell dizzy, and he didn't get up several times.
Just as Caward tried to force himself to his feet, a sound of footsteps came from his ears. Then he stomped on his back and trampled him down.
"Run, why don't you run. Hey, where is your companion? ”
"Okay, Levy, the hermit crab will chase after you at any time, pay attention to the vigilance."
"Mr. Zhang San, are we going to ...... him directly?"
"No, let him add a meal to the hermit crab, and we'll go back and ask for help."
Kavod could hear who the voice was owned, the two humans he hated. But at this time, he couldn't care about so much at all, any grievances and hatreds, and no face, compared to his own life, they were all floating clouds.
The strong desire to survive stimulated Caward's cry for help: "Human, help me, please." ”
He was answered by the sound of a sharp object entering the flesh. Poof, a steel needle was inserted through the back, giving Caward a chill. With so much force, it plunged directly into the thick ground, like a wooden stake.
Levy, who had a great revenge, said happily: "Seriously, this mosquito mouth is quite easy to use. ”
"Let's go, the crabs are coming over soon." Lu Bu said flatly.
The two then fled together, their footsteps moving farther and farther away from Kaward, and soon vanished.
"No, I can't die yet," Caverd tried to get up, but he couldn't move with a steel needle stuck in his body. "Damn, human!"
In less than a minute, Caward had exhausted himself, but he still couldn't escape the cage of death.
He never imagined that the immortal body he was so proud of would actually turn into a terrible nightmare. Kavod would rather have just been pierced to death by a steel needle than wait here for death to come.
A chaotic sound came, indicating that the hermit crab was approaching here.
"I'm not reconciled, Mr. Garble save me, God Hans save me!" Cavood shouted in despair.
It's a pity that there is no one here at this time, and no one will come no matter how miserable Caward's screaming is. Perhaps, even if Garble were here, he would have abandoned him as Caverd had abandoned his companions.
The hermit crab's footsteps stopped, and Kavod found himself being lifted up, and a large, strange face appeared in front of him.
Bobo, the hermit crab's mouth squirmed, ready to punish the bastard who dared to hurt himself.
"Save me ......" were the last words Caward said, just like his companions.
At the other end of the road, Lu Buping and the others were not easy.
The guy who just ambushed Caward, which not only slowed down the pursuit of the hermit crab but also avenged Levy's revenge, should have been easier. Yet they underestimated the danger of the Black Swamp.
Mutant moles, poisonous toads, black flies, giant mosquitoes......
As Lu Buping and the others ran all the way, it was as if the remaining monsters in the entire Black Swamp were attracted, and followed closely behind the two. If you want to say that it is not realistic to fight back, Lu Buping has a hidden blade in his hand, and it is okay to kill one or two. When encountering three or five pairs, there is only the life of confession.
But the speed of the monster's episodes has far exceeded imagination, and after a while, a radiation mutated version of the swamp ecosystem has been assembled behind it.
The pursuit of many mutated creatures forced Lu Buping and the others to not stop for a second, as long as they fell behind, the result was self-evident.
"Mr. Zhang San, what's the situation, I'...... I can't run. Levi gasped.
Lu Buping didn't expect this situation, and he had some clue to rethink at this time.
According to the positioning monitoring seen before, there are more than a dozen people doing "digging" work throughout the Black Swamp. However, the proportion of deaths and the frequency of encountering monsters are far lower than Lu Buping's this time.
I didn't encounter these creatures on the way because they all have a fixed habitat. However, the mutant hermit crab is the top of the food chain in the swamps, and its dispatch forces all creatures to leave their territory.
What's even more terrifying is that Lu Buping's human identity is too conspicuous. These monsters are generally not interested in ghouls, and fresh flesh is a nutritious meal in their eyes. Now that Lu Buping and Levy's scent has stimulated them, it is like a signal source in the entire underground three floors, and the mutant creatures are naturally chasing after them.
The mutated creatures of the entire Black Swamp are gathered here!
Now this situation is only something that Garble and Diana did not expect.
Fortunately, the monsters themselves are not united, and different species can still be safe when they are in their own territory. At this time, they killed each other when they met, creating conditions for Lu Buping to escape. Even so, there were still a large number of monsters following behind him, swarming after the two humans in front of him.
"It's almost there, don't stop!" Lu Buping looked at the beep boy as he ran, and the map indicated that he was very close to the gate. If this situation is to be solved, it must rely on thermal weapons. The heavily armed overseers have strong firepower, and they are presumably not vegetarians, so leave these troubles to them.
Finally, just when the two of them were exhausted, a bright light lit up not far away, which was the searchlight at the main entrance.
Coming and going for less than an hour, they were back.
A few overseers were chatting boredly, and no one noticed the anomaly in the Black Swamp. This is also normal, the Black Swamp has existed for more than a hundred years, and there has been almost no chaos. Monsters generally don't leave their territory, and only the unlucky ones who strayed into their territory will be eaten up.
The overseers are nominally supervising the diggers and guarding the gates against monsters, but in reality they are putting on a show. As long as there is no provocation from the workers, they are happy to be idle.
Garble's men had seen Lu Buping and the others approaching the designated area on the monitor before, and they decided that the two humans couldn't make waves, so they didn't pay any more attention. If the overseers knew what was going to happen next, they would have slapped themselves in the mouth with regret.
At this time, he was less than three hundred meters away from the gate, and seeing that the hope of life was ahead, Levy desperately shouted: "Help, there is a monster behind!" ”
The little overseer was the first to hear the voice, and when he looked up, his hair stood on end in shock. Hurriedly picked up the gun, and at the same time shouted to the colleagues around him: "Hurry up, hurry, get ready to fight." ”
"What?" The other overseers reacted and watched Lu Buping and the two running towards them. His eyes drifted behind the two of them, and he saw an army of monsters.
", shoot, shoot!" The little man shouted loudly.
However, before he could speak, the other overseers had already raised their guns in unison and fired a round of fire. As for the two humans, Lu Buping and Levy, they are naturally also within the range of attack. In the face of such an emergency, the overseers would not be kind enough to avoid them.
After Lu Buping heard the first gunshot, he jumped to the ground. At the same time, he grabbed the corner of Levy's clothes and dragged him down. Levy fell to the ground, lying on the ground with his head in his hands, motionless.
Dense bullets whizzed over their heads, and the sound of gunfire shook their eardrums, and from time to time stray bullets landed on their side. The army of mutant creatures not far behind him let out a piercing scream, and countless bullets carried through the monster's body wrapped in high temperature, emitting a strong smell of burning.
Lu Buping buried his head between his hands and gritted his teeth to discern the movements around him. Occasionally, a bullet hit his body, and he could only endure the pain.
The whole process lasted about twenty seconds, and it seemed like a full twenty hours for the two people lying on the ground.
The gunfire goes out, and the overseers replace their magazines. Lu Buping got up with enough strength and continued to run forward, he was lucky not to be shot in the round just now, and he was not so lucky next time.
The monsters behind them were frightened by the sound of gunfire and did not dare to move forward for a while, and now was a good time to escape.
Lu Buping used all his strength to finally run back to the gate, and in the face of the appearance of many monsters, Garble's subordinates did not have time to care about this human. In case of accidentally being broken through by a monster, these ten overseers will all have to be explained here.
However, the mutation appeared at this time, and Lu Buping looked behind him and found that there was a riot in the monster army. From time to time, the monster in the back was thrown to the ceiling and was then caught in two by a huge pair of pincers.
A large figure emerged from the back row, and the rest of the monsters stepped out of the way.
The hermit crab, after a relentless pursuit, has finally found a human who dares to offend its majesty.
