Chapter 66: Ice Wind (2)
The half-track snow reconnaissance vehicle sped over the ice field, constantly sending the explored terrain to George's command vehicle, and the black fog on the command vehicle's radar quickly dissipated.
George nodded with satisfaction: "At this rate, within ten days, we can completely explore the three districts." ā
Wilde said, "But the cunning fox will not be killed." ā
"Unless it can outrun us head-on, the method of exploiting loopholes in guerrilla warfare is not very useful in terrain like the ice field, especially for us. ā
"Well, I'm in good shape and ready to attack. ā
"Patience, I'll get you. ā
As soon as George's words fell, a red dot suddenly flashed on the radar.
"Dark, what's going on?"
Duck immediately sent back a message: "A frost stag beetle, led out by the fluctuation of magical energy. ā
The Frost Stag Beetle is a ferocious, small, thirty-centimeter-long, social hunter who is not very fast, but can catch large beasts through group cooperation.
"Don't make trouble, let's take a detour. ā
"There's no need for that!" Duck screwed his hands and pressed the power pedal lightly on his toes, and the two spiked tracks spun like meat grinders.
With a crisp click, the carapace of the frost spade beetle could not withstand the reconnaissance vehicle, which weighed more than a ton, and was crushed into meat sauce, leaving two green traces on the white ice field.
"Yo-whew-" Duck shouted insolently, "and what other beasts, all the women and horses will get out and die!"
George frowned: "Dark, shield the magic energy fluctuations, don't be ostentatious!"
As if hearing Duck's provocation, dozens of stag beetles shook the snow on their bodies, drilled out of the ground, and changed to an ordinary adventurer team. Today, however, Duck is determined to separate himself from these xenos.
"Back in Port Snell, an unscrupulous alchemist gave me a couple of cute, expansive props. Duck drove the reconnaissance vehicle almost into the air, skimming between the two stag beetles. The stag beetles turned around, their heads facing the passing reconnaissance vehicle.
Duck drove around in a large arc, and a dozen more stag beetles were lured out.
"At that time, my sister said that the superposition of three simple first-level fire arrows is equivalent to a third-level fire tornado, which can sweep half a street! Just a few days ago, an unscrupulous mage told me that the superposition effect of three fires is not good, and that other elements can be relied on to create damage, and fire is only used to ignite. ā
The reconnaissance vehicle accelerated a second time, grazing against the edge of the stag beetle swarm, and looking down from high in the sky, the stag beetle swarm was pulled into a large black ball.
"The alchemist's design ideas, the mage's theoretical support, the Psychic Hive's choice to maximize damage, and the high-precision material processing ...... of the Hydra Pillar" Duck slammed on the brakes, the reconnaissance car squeaked to a stop, the rear shutter was removed, and the muzzle of a large-caliber projectile black hole was exposed, "Let me get some cute gadgets, fire and earth, guys, who can guess what gift I brought?"
Enya and Wilde's brows furrowed at the same time: "Fire and earth ......"
George gritted his teeth and said, "It's impossible to guess, guys, do you know how many kinds of earth elementals there are?"
The two of them were inexplicable: "The earth element is still divided?"
"That's with us...... No, it's a completely different theory than yours, Duck, he'sā"
"It's time!" Duck slammed on the bolt, and with a bang, a barrel-sized cannonball was thrown into the air.
The individual combat system gave Dark's excellent ballistic calculations, and the cannonballs exploded when they reached their highest point, turning into countless shining silver meteors, dragging long white feathery tails of smoke into the ground.
Wilde shuddered. He felt the furious and unruly power of the silver meteor.
The Frost Stag Beetles unleashed Ice Attribute Blessings and put on frost armor to resist the scorching flames.
They miscalculated.
These terrible shining flames can actually attach themselves to the ice and burn!
In just an instant, the light of countless blue frost armors was extinguished, and those terrifying flames did not weaken in the slightest, and continued to burn ferociously, igniting the hard shell of the frost stag beetle.
Nearly a hundred fire balls rolled on the ground, and huge smoke rose up, erecting a long wall of high smoke screens between heaven and earth.
The silver flames turned a terrifying red, and the red spread rapidly, and eventually, the black ash and the red flame star took everyone's view.
Wilde gritted his teeth: "Has the hellish demon come to earth?"
In the billowing smoke, Duck laughed loudly: "The age of mankind is coming. All aliens, obey or die! Only the brutes with sharp claws and teeth suffer death!"
Shaqi's voice sounded through the communication system in the command car: "Ah, everyone, as an unscrupulous mage, I'm really sorry, it's not the same as the original script. Unscrupulous alchemist, any ideas?"
The corners of George's mouth twitched: "How did he know the recipe for the white phosphorus incendiary bomb, I remember only mentioning it to you once, and I never told him anything like this." ā
"What he said just now is very clear. With the idea and the hive of the mind, there is no idea that cannot be made. Angels or demons, it's all in his thoughts. Then again, George, isn't it exactly what we expect for mortals to knock gods down into the clouds?"
"But I never expected a madman with an abnormal mentality to bring God down. However, it's okay that when the end comes, I can feel less guilty. ā
"Don't you want to do something?"
"He's not a kid anymore, the road was chosen by himself, what's the matter with me?"
Looking at Duck speeding across the ice field, Enya lowered her eyes.
On this day, a disaster day for all non-human creatures on this ice field, Darker went on a killing spree, frantically pouring fire on all the xenomorphs.
In the face of the absolute power brought by transcending the times, no creature has a chance to escape. From a fist-sized frozen slime to a dozen meters long Hell Ice Worm, Duck left no chickens and dogs behind wherever he went. The cost was that within four hours, he had to reequip the Scout Vehicle with three Magic Drive Cores.
Eventually, Duck parked the car at the entrance to a hidden cave. The scout bee revealed that it was a nest of Hell Ice Worms, with a complex terrain and a depth of nearly 100 meters, and some eggs to be hatched in the deepest part of the country.
He tapped the pedal, flicked his tail, and aimed the transmitter port at the rear of the car at the hole.
George opened the team to chat: "This kind of terrain, the white phosphorus bomb effect is very poor, and the smoke effect is not good. ā
"Of course it's not it, it's something else. ā
Duck shot a projectile into it, and then ran away desperately.
There was a dull pop, and the projectile exploded deep inside the cavern.
Hundreds of square meters of ground slammed upward, as if a sleeping giant had awakened below, and then the ground was pushed open like a quilt that had been lifted, crimson flames and boiling hot steam erupting from every crack.
The entire nest was overturned by a single projectile.
Wilde was dumbfounded: "This...... What is this?"
This sentence was said in the team's internal communication, and Duck heard it clearly, and grinned: "Thermobaric bomb." Guys, want to hear how it works?"
"You pervert. ā
"Thank you!" Duck said happily, "Guys, this is the last nest we can detect, Area X, clear!"
In the midst of Dark's smug laughter, Enya cried.
