Chapter Seventy-One: Extermination
The centipede has a long flat strip on its body, about 5 meters long and 0.3 meters wide. The whole consists of 22 sections, with the last section being slightly smaller. two dark red segments on the head, with antennae and 1 pair of poison hooks; dorsal dark green, shiny, with 2 longitudinal ridges; abdomen brownish-yellow, wrinkled; From the second segment onwards, each segment has 1 pair of reddish-brown limbs and feet, born on both sides, curved in a hook shape. Brittle, with cracks in the section. The smell is slightly fishy, and there is a special pungent odor. It's clearly a highly venomous insect with a poisonous body.
Zhang Xiaohu rushed behind the centipede and slashed at the slender foot with a knife, "Click! With a crisp sound, the foot segment was actually split, and a stream of green juice spurted out, Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly dodged away, for fear that the liquid was poisonous. The centipede was in pain, quickly twisted its body, and its poisonous hooked head turned around you suddenly, spewing out a large black poisonous mist at Zhang Xiaohu.
A person rushed to Zhang Xiaohu's side, raised the wooden shield in his hand, and separated the poisonous mist, and at the same time the two people quickly dodged away, this person was a warrior of the Black Stone Tribe, the wooden shield in his hand was emitting white smoke, and it was obvious that the poison of the poisonous fog was very violent. Seeing this, the others rushed forward one after another, and cut off several limbs and feet in a row with the weapons in their hands, the centipede was in pain, and swam quickly, Yan Cannon's calm use of the Mauser gun to aim at the centipede's head, and fired five shots in a row, all of which hit accurately, and the monster's head continued to flow with thick dark green liquid.
In this dark and chaotic environment, only Yan Cannon's marksmanship can achieve 100 shots. But he didn't have time to change the bullets, the centipede had already flashed and struck him with its tail, and he flew out two or three meters and knocked over a tent.
Zhang Xiaohu was worried that Yan Cannon's old injuries had not healed and he had been hit hard, so he hurriedly withdrew from the battlefield and ran to the tent, and found that although Yan Cannon's face was shocked, it was not a big problem. I saw that his coat had been torn at this time, and a close-fitting metal armor was revealed inside, and it seemed that this metal armor blocked most of the attacks.
Yan cannon: "I'm glad that Old Yan wore this!" "He found it in the bilge of the Star Four, and it was about the size of his size, and he liked it at first sight, and he wore it all the time.
Zhang Xiaohu saw that Yan's cannon was not in danger, and found that the centipede was spitting poisonous mist frantically at this time because of the heavy injury, and everyone avoided it one after another. He glanced around and found that there were still four coconut fruits in the tent that Yan Cannon had knocked over, two of which had been opened, and the liquor inside was now flowing on the ground, and it was burning with fire. He had an idea and thought of a way.
He split the remaining two coconut fruits, held one in his hand, and sprinkled the liquor on the centipede's body, and picked up a burning wood from nearby and set the centipede on fire.
Immediately, half of the centipede's body burned, the hard carapace on its body made a "crackling" sound, and the air was filled with a strong smell of burning.
The centipede's mouth emits "Hiss!" Zhao Zixuan saw the time, raised the harpoon in his hand, and stabbed the weak tail of the centipede again and again, nailing it to the ground, the centipede had no way to break free this time, spinning and twisting on the ground, dozens of slender limbs and feet were constantly trembling, and there was a poisonous mist spraying in the mouth.
Everyone avoided from afar, and Yan Cannon stood up and fired a few more shots from a distance.
As the flames rose, after five minutes, the centipede finally stopped writhing. Zhang Xiaohu was worried that it would play dead, so he picked up a few burnt felt cloths nearby and dragged them on the centipede's body. The flames became more and more intense, and it took more than ten minutes for the centipede's body to burn into charcoal, and then everyone was relieved.
However, in the fight just now, there were still three villagers of the Xishan tribe who were sprayed by the black poisonous mist, and at this moment, the exposed skin was already bloated, and the facial features were distorted, and they had already died tragically.
There was no time for grief, because there were still a dozen giant insects wreaking havoc in the camp at the moment.
Most of those giant insects are giant tide insects, which look terrifying and are not actually aggressive, but there are a few beetles with giant jaws, which are fierce and abnormal.
Zhang Xiaohu felt like a firefighter, rushing wherever there was danger, he didn't think too much, he just wanted to vent his inner boredom more.
But in the eyes of others, Zhang Xiaohu is like a god of war, tirelessly and dangerously rushing forward, rescuing the besieged people one by one, and then rushing to other places that need rescue. Without a pause! Without a hint of hesitation!
Zhang Xiaohu didn't know that after such a night, his status in the eyes of everyone had skyrocketed. He also cut down a giant tide insect, and after several attempts, he found that the weakness of this insect was at the back of the head, as long as he was ruthless and accurate enough, he could solve it at once.
His hand was so weak that he couldn't lift the knife, he lost his strength and sat down on the ground all of a sudden, Zhao Zixuan hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
At this time, most of the insects in the camp were killed by everyone's efforts, and a few of them also fled into the dense forest.
Looking at the chaotic camp, the surviving people have a feeling of the aftermath, after this sneak attack by the bugs, about a dozen people were unfortunately killed, and many of the living people were injured.
A large amount of supplies were also destroyed in the sneak attack, and more than a dozen tents were burned, which could not be replenished later.
Zhang Xiaohu rested for a while, and finally accumulated some strength, he walked around the camp with Zhao Zixuan's support, and found that everyone was looking at him with a strange look.
Soon the crowd gathered around him, applause and cheers began to sound, he was treated as a hero and everyone hugged him, including those classmates who had a holiday with him before, Xu Haitao hugged him hard and praised: "Zhang Xiaohu, you are really good!" It's like I'm going to die, I'm going to obey you. In the future, you will speak when you are useful to me, and I am willing to obey orders! ”
Song Haozhe applauded and sighed loudly: "I've seen someone who doesn't want to die, I've never seen you so deadly!" It's really ruthless, I admire a ruthless person like you! ”
Zheng Lulu surprised everyone, she hugged Zhang Xiaohu and kissed her, although it was only her cheek, she also said: "This is the man I Zheng Lulu likes!" ”
Zhang Xiaohu blushed shyly, and only then did he come back to his senses, he turned around and asked Zhao Zixuan, "Old Zhao, what happened to me just now?" ”
Zhao Zixuan smiled bitterly and said, "Big brother, what else do I want to ask you?" You just didn't want to die, you killed half of the bugs here, why are you working so hard? ”
"Yes! I just saw that everyone is in danger, and I can't care so much, but it's really nothing...... Everyone should help each other! Zhang Xiaohu smiled slightly, looked at everyone's warm eyes, and said.
Yan Dacang laughed, walked over, and said, "Doll! The state you were in just now was to kill the red eye, and we only occasionally appeared on the battlefield. ”
The eastern sky revealed a glimmer of white light, and a new day began.
The crowd began to clean up in the camp, extinguishing some of the fires that were still burning, and collecting the bodies together for burial. Zhang Xiaohu looked at the busy crowd and wondered, "Lao Zhao, why didn't I see Chenyi?" ”
Zhao Zixuan replied: "You wait here, I'll ask!" Soon he returned after some inquiry, and said, "Everyone said that Chenyi is not here, and is still on the ship." ”
Zhang Xiaohu shook his head and said: "Even if she is on the boat, there was such a big fuss last night, I don't believe that the Goddess will not be found, why hasn't she appeared yet, and the Tao brothers, I haven't seen it either!" Could something be wrong? ”
"You're always suspicious! I'll ask again! Zhao Zixuan said helplessly.
After a few minutes, Zhao Zixuan returned with an amazed face and said: "Lao Zhang, I really made you right, the guards of the Goddess were awakened by the warning sound you made last night, and they also rushed over under the leadership of Chen Yi, but now they can't see her and the Tao brothers, and even the fake goddess is gone." ”
