Text Chapter 147 Alien Island 6
At the front of the line, as the new scout party had become more cautious than before, had spotted these terrifying creatures hiding behind wide foliage before entering a new worm territory.
Under the sunlight, there is a terrifying silhouette behind almost every leaf in sight, which is still the part that can be seen because of direct sunlight, and if you use your brain to make up for all the scenes behind the leaves, then there are at least thousands of them.
Even without knowing how the worms observed the world, all the warriors unconsciously held their breath and slowed down, looking for another safe route.
But everyone felt that they had been discovered, and in the oppressive calm, there was only the rustle of the wind blowing through the leaves, and soon, this rustling gradually added some crisp sounds like broken branches.
"It's been discovered, run."
Someone suddenly shouted, and then ran towards the large army, which was already only a few tens of meters away. When the others heard the shouting, they didn't even dare to delay in their stunned moments, and quickly moved closer to the rear. In their opinion, only with a large force and relying on superior firepower can they ensure their own safety.
Normally, this is true, but they ignore the fact that these worms are better at melee than humans who shoot from a distance, and this is a jungle with limited vision.
As they retreated, a large number of worms began to move at the same time. The fat bugs bounced nimbly on the leaves, and they led them to the location of the large army.
A mobile team assigned by Su Hao arrived just before the large army, and saw that the scout team was running back in a panic, and at the head of the scout team a little later, there was a dense sound of rain hitting plantains, and they immediately opened fire when they realized that something was wrong.
Among the broken branches and leaves, worms kept falling, but as long as they were not directly hit by bullets, they turned over slightly and continued to bounce on the ground, and they moved much faster on the ground than on leaves. It took a second or two to catch up with the people who had fallen behind in the scout line. These people didn't even have a quick scream, and they were drowned in a sea of reddish snow-white insects.
Not to mention the ordinary fighters in this scene, even the elite of the mobile team also appeared in a mood of fear.
"All shots. I've seen a lot of these bugs in Bellgang, and as long as the suppression power is enough, they will run away. ”
In the mobile team, one of the fighters shouted and made the move for those who had not yet made a choice between fighting and fleeing behind the others.
When people are confused about their choices, they will always rely on the choices of others. What's more, every warrior here is more willing to choose to fight than to run away, especially if there is a clear message and result.
The blockade of fire was quickly established, and the worms on the trees and the ground had to pay for dozens of worms for every meter advanced. But in the time of the warrior's words, the distance between them and the team had narrowed to more than ten meters. Dozens of deaths per meter, and a maximum of hundreds of deaths at a distance of more than ten meters. And this number is less than a tenth of the total number of worms in this batch. Far from the point where you need to escape.
The swarm of worms on the ground had reached the front of him, and the position above his head was about to be covered. Knowing that they could no longer escape, several fighters threw away their guns and replaced them with short knives. After the worm swarm is close to the body, whether in terms of sensitivity or accidental damage, the short knife is a better choice than a gun, and it is also a worst option to give up the advantages of humans and fight for the life of the beast.
Without giving humans more time to prepare, the moment a few warriors just took out their short knives, an overwhelming sea of insects had already descended.
The warrior, who had just let out a scream, saw a worm that bounced towards his chest and slashed at it, and then, in his rapidly shrinking pupils, the worm actually used the twist of its body to change direction in the air. A swift and sharp slash slashed through its body. The worm, however, continued to fall towards the warrior's abdomen after changing its direction, and ...... Successfully reached the destination.
The warrior's gaze couldn't even keep up with the worm's movements, and only his brain quickly imagined the pain of being stabbed in the abdomen......
But after a few seconds of pain, the imaginary pain still does not coincide with the real-life pain.
When waiting for death, but death is not coming, the human brain will always instinctively become sluggish. I don't know how long it took, but it wasn't until a roar of cheers came from his ears that the warrior controlled his eyes to look around.
The terrifying sea of insects was fleeing for its life, quickly receding from his eyes, and the strange frog he had just seen was chasing after him. They are much faster than worms, and with each jump, they spit out their door-like tongues and roll large pieces of worms into their mouths, leaving only one piece to be licked by their tongues. Slippery saliva after wiping.
The warrior looked down at his abdomen, as if in understanding, and there was also a wet spitting saliva. After a few seconds, his eyes gradually regained their brightness, and he also joined the cheers with all his strength.
He was not only cheering to get his life back, not just venting to release the depression just now, but also excited about an emotion that he couldn't understand.
This emotion, which he, and all the fighters couldn't understand, was converted into words by Qiu Yu in the team behind, and explained to Qian with a faint smile, "This is to be excited about the kindness and hope shown by the world." In their original lives, in addition to humans, there were also camels and dogs that showed kindness to humans. But since the beginning of this expedition, the whole world they have seen has sided with them. Any animal is an enemy, and any life is an opponent that needs to be killed in order to survive. It's a heavy depression that isolates oneself from the world, and if it weren't for so many companions, it would have collapsed a long time ago. But just because there is no collapse doesn't mean it doesn't affect them...... Now see these frogs fighting worms to protect themselves...... Although this is not the case, it turns out that they are indeed creatures that show kindness to humans, and even from the eyes of these warriors, they are alien companions who challenge other creatures with themselves. So now, those frogs are holy angels in their dark hearts. ”
Qian Xiao looked at those frog-like creatures, and after resembling the frog-faced angel in his head, he shivered several times.
"You can understand all this, but ......," Su Hao sighed, "I'm afraid that before you went to this island, you already thought about how to play the role of various creatures under the normal ecology, right?" ”
"It's not." Qiu Yu shook his head, "Not before this island, but before the trip to meet Qian Xiao, I was already thinking about it. ”
Su Hao took a deep breath of cold air, "The conditions are all prepared for the expected results, how can you prepare for the current results without knowing anything, and the conditions that are unknown in terms of role and play?" ”
"It's not particularly for the present, it's just that the conditions are prepared first, and then they are combined when they need to be used. Moreover, this condition must be used in this game. ”
Su Hao looked at Qiu Yu curiously, "It's all about this, you won't catch my curiosity, right?" ”
Qiu Yu smiled and shook his head, "This world is no longer the same, even if we win the game and successfully protect the earth from the clutches of aliens, these creatures already exist on the earth. Humanity must learn to live with the Light before it can destroy them. Although sooner or later mankind will realize this, it will inevitably take many detours and pay countless costs. Now, if these warriors, who are at the forefront of contact with alien creatures and are the most hostile, realize that not all monsters are enemies, they can bring their minds back to their respective organizations. ”
"Do you want them to use the fastest speed to turn some of the creatures that need to fight into their own help, like domesticating pigs and dogs, domesticating alien creatures that help humans survive better...... I now deeply understand why some people would say that even death can be used by the resources you have turned into a resource. Su Hao paused for a few seconds, "So, in this rescue, you will try to find as many usable creatures as possible, right?" ”
"No, you don't." Qiu Yu's answer once again surprised Su Hao, "We are just passers-by, all we can do is to push it a little, and then, this world will continue to develop in the direction of our strength like a perpetual motion machine." ”
Su Hao looked around with an understanding.
The warriors beside them were still vigilantly looking around, but their eyes were no longer filled with the suppressed lifelessness they had before, but a curious gaze.
Not far away, a warrior was plucking a purple fruit from a tree, sniffing it carefully in front of his nose.
In the other direction, someone took out a thin rope with sandbags hanging from both ends and kept swinging, as if trying to catch something.
On the battlefield where the worm was fought before, several warriors were carefully trying to make contact with an alien frog that had eaten too much and did not leave immediately.
An aura of vitality is rapidly spreading among these teams, which have been formed solely by material temptation and momentary enthusiasm. They have gone from being a group of walking corpses who know nothing but destruction and death to explorers who are breaking new ground for humanity.
Su Hao was also infected, and when he turned his head in a relaxed mood, Qiu Yu had already walked forward more than ten meters away.
Looking at this back that made him more and more impenetrable, Su Hao chuckled and whispered, "You are really a magical person......
