Chapter 117: It's All a Misunderstanding!
A gentle breeze blew through the silent forest, and under the caress of the wind, a leaf that had turned yellow and wrinkled in the cold sky quietly bid farewell to the treetops and fell to the ground in the wind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The crumpled leaves reveal a warm orange in the sunlight, the gilt trim reflects its burgundy veins, and in the wind it dances like a butterfly, crossing an arc whose meaning only nature knows.
In those beautiful poems, when the fallen leaves leave the treetops, the other leaves will play a chorus of "rustling", which is not a farewell with sorrow, but a farewell similar to blessings. The fallen leaves will also be accompanied by dance, and in the following year the leaves that fall to the ground have melted into the soil, and then grow on the branches again, this time, it is their turn to perform for the ensemble of leaves that have sent them off, and so on, like life and death, and it seems to transcend life and death, year after year, and the cycle continues.
The leaves danced like this, drifting over the moss-mottled trunks, over the specks of light cast from above, at the feet of the two creatures in silent confrontation, and then with the last of the wind, they turned three times and two times, merging into a patch of gold and orange.
"Click-click"
An arthropod stepped onto the dry, fragile leaf and crushed it evenly into the carpet of gold wire, and with this faint sound, the half-tree hunter assumed a posture that seemed to be ready to pounce.
Its posture was so strange that the Strangler almost didn't recognize it, the Half-Tree Hunter's body was pressed down and leaned forward, but its center of gravity didn't move, most of its main weight was still pressed in the same place, and a hind limb firmly stepped on the potato mine.
Even if you are on the verge of being blown up, do you still want to fight?
No, it should be said that it is precisely because it will be killed by a potato mine at any time, so it is more necessary to attack!
The Strangler's companion would return at any moment, and by that time it would be dead, and the Half-Tree Hunter who was standing on the mine would have no resistance to it, and the Strangler could even imagine his companion wrapping the rope around the Half-Tree Hunter and pulling it slightly—the Half-Tree Hunter would be blown to pieces due to the imbalance of pressure under his feet.
Instead, its companions will find a rock for it and carefully replace it with their own arthropods so that it can survive, which is the only solution if it steps on a potato mine. There were quite a few potato mines that remained silent under the dirt until they rotted silently, or until some blind fool kicked the stones away......
Naturally, the Half-Tree Hunter would not have a companion to help it get out of danger, so there was only one way for it, and this method was also thought of by the strangler. That's the potato mine that detonates it beneath its feet! Put the shattered body fragments of the strangler under your feet as a weight! Step on its corpse to pave a way for yourself to survive!
It's just ...... It's too much to think about.
The stalker's silent laughter, for the old hunter, it is also part of life to teach young people some lessons, and lessons always come at a price, whether it is blood, life or death......
The Half-Tree Hunter swooped up, its posture even more strange at this moment, it pounced on the Strangler with its head down against the ground, trying to avoid the explosion range of the potato mine, and the two blade arms with silvery-white glint edges slashed at the leg joints of the Strangler left and right, this burst came without warning, and the sound of the wind showed how fast the Half Tree Hunter was pounced.
These two knives are going to cut off the legs of the strangler, and the strangler's foot is on the potato mine, and it doesn't even have room to move!
Just as the Half-Tree Hunter's blade arm was about to touch the Strangler's legs, the Strangler's cord suddenly fired.
But not at the half-tree hunter, the rope shot into the air.
The recoil of the shot shot pushed the Strangler's body back, and at that moment, the Strangler's two claws slapped at the blades swept by the Half-Tree Hunter!
One hit, one didn't, and in the screams of the strangler, one of the limbs was neatly severed. But its goal has been achieved.
One step, two steps, the strangler dangled half of his broken leg and retreated.
Wait a minute...... How can it quit?! Why didn't the potato mine explode?!
Right in front of it, the bewildered Half-Tree Hunter maintained a funny pose, its blade arm pressed against the potato mine in front of it, and its hind limbs pressed against the potato mine in its original position, and its entire body was almost bent into a bow.
Just now, the Strangler's claws slapped the blade arm right at the original potato mine, seamlessly connecting with the mine position that was given up when the thrust of the firing rope pushed him away. This series of actions was completed in an instant, so that now that the dust had settled, the Half-Tree Hunter had just reacted.
it! This is hitting the hole of the master's gun!
Ordinary stranglers are naturally not the opponents of half-tree hunters in one-on-one, but what is discussed here is only the average level, if it is those old bugs who have been fighting against half-tree hunters all year round, or talented people like those big dumb hunters, ordinary half-tree hunters are very likely to be suppressed by them, or even die on the spot!
In other words, was his previous sneak attack from the top down already discovered? I thought I was hiding a lot...... If it hadn't stepped on the potato mine as soon as it landed, I am afraid that when it smugly pounced on the back of the strangler, it would be greeted by the cold and hard claws that had been gathering momentum for a long time!
So, Potato Ray also saved his own life? The half-tree hunter couldn't laugh or cry.
Although the strangler who exited the dangerous environment broke a leg, his combat power did not decrease in the slightest, and against the half-tree hunter who stepped on two potato mines, the advantage was simply incomparable! It dragged its broken leg and pounced on it with great speed, giving the Half-Tree Hunter no time to regroup.
But the half-tree hunter made an unexpected move: it raised its hind limbs and jumped without hesitation!
If you have to die...... It's going to drag the Strangler down with it!
The strangler's frightened soul flew away, and the body that flew down pressed the potato thunder that had just withdrawn his leg, which was still a perfect seamless connection.
In exchange for his escape, one of the half-tree hunter's legs was torn off by a claw.
Everything seems to be back to square one, except that the two bugs have switched places.
Now...... Is it flat?
The two creatures that had just stood still began to fight frantically again, this time in close combat, and the half-tree hunter, who was a head taller than the strangler, tried to rip off the strangler's neck with his claws, pulling it out entirely, and the experienced stalker reached into the half-tree hunter's fragile abdomen, roaring and fighting.
Annoyed, the Half-Tree Hunter finally remembered that he still had mouthparts to use as a weapon, but the Strangler's head was pressed against its jaw, making it impossible for it to bite, and the Strangler's neck was so well protected by the exoskeleton that the Half-Tree Hunter couldn't claw.
And the progress of the strangler was not smooth, and the situation was at a stalemate for a while.
"Let's go."
The silence was broken by a slight thud, and the two predators, who were scuffling together, followed the sound to see a strangler with minced meat still stuck to the corner of his mouth, standing stunned.
The eyes of this strangler contain shock, fear, disbelief, I must not have woken up yet, Mom came to see that the way the alien world opened is a little wrong, you are filthy again, and so on, all kinds of emotions that can be described in words, difficult to describe in words. I didn't even notice that the meat and bones that I had been holding in my arms and gnawing while walking rolled to the ground.
Through its compound eyes, the Half-Tree Hunter saw what was going on in them:
The half-tree hunter's knife arm hugged the strangler's head, and forcefully pressed its head against his own breastplate, and the half-tree hunter's chin rested on the strangler's head, because the half-tree hunter's body looked taller than the strangler, so it looked like the strangler was completely wrapped in the arms of the half-tree hunter, as if the half-tree hunter used its broad shoulders to block the cold wind through the forest for the strangler, and the strangler's claws wrapped around the waist of the half-tree hunter, and the torso rested on the half-tree hunter, the scene looked extremely ......
Three beings were silent in the forest for a long time, two froze, and one was messy in the wind.
I seem to understand something......
The strangler, who had suffered a violent mental shock, staggered back.
That one...... We...... Explainable ......
The Strangler, whose face was pressed against the breastplate of the Half-Tree Hunter, struggled to turn around, as if ready to force a wave of justification.
Needless to say, I understand...... Sorry to interrupt you, you guys continue, I'm evasive...... I shy away from ......
So it's not what you think! x2
