Chapter 481: Tug of War with Death
Probably the turtledove himself didn't notice that shortly after the sandstorm came, the modified pickup truck he was driving was violently bumped when passing a small sand dune, and the turtledove was already a little frightened by the terrifying power of the sandstorm.
The problem was in that bump.
At that time, the side compartment of the modified pickup truck was hit by the rope hook gun on the off-road vehicle behind, and the hook gun pierced through the compartment wall on one side and was firmly stuck in this position, not only washing the various materials that were originally stacked neatly in the compartment, but also constantly pulling the compartment wall outward, and dragging the compartment wall out of shape in a blink of an eye.
Xiao Worm didn't care about the scattered materials, she wanted to go over and see if she could dispose of the hook gun, otherwise if the wall of the pickup truck was destroyed, all the materials in the car would have to be blown to the sky by the strong wind, and so many supplies would be lost, even if the four of them survived the sandstorm afterwards, they would not be able to continue the rest of the journey.
Water, food, weapons, ammunition, these things are too important, they are the key to their survival in the barren land.
Who knew that the little worm had just gotten together, and the entire modified pickup truck jolted violently, but fortunately, the little worm's reaction was relatively fast, and she grabbed the gap between the two planks of the ammunition box in front of her, and finally was not thrown out of the car.
Seeing that Natalia was looking at herself, the little worm couldn't help but smirk "hehe", she was about to get up from the floor of the carriage, when suddenly the pickup truck came with a more violent bump, and now not only the bug, but even the ammunition box she picked was completely upside down, and flew out of the carriage with the bugs.
Natalia's expression instantly stiffened on her face.
……
No one could have imagined how heavy the ammunition box full of bullets would be, and of course it had to do with the wind outside and the hook gun that pierced the wall of the car, and if the car was not broken, the air flow would not be enough to blow the ammo box and bugs away.
But now it's too late to say anything, and Natalia's heart sinks to the bottom.
Natalia was even ready to jump out of the car to find the bug, but when she looked outside, she saw that the bug had not been blown away by the wind, and the worm was holding the rope that connected the pickup truck to the buggy with both hands, and the situation was precarious.
To say that the worm's luck is also excellent, she and the ammunition box were turned out of the carriage at the same time, but the ammunition box has no hands, can only be blown into the sky by the whirlwind and twisted into pieces, the worm grabbed a life-saving straw at the critical moment, and is still barely holding on.
However, looking at Xiao Worm's current posture, it is difficult for her to hold on for any longer.
"Hold on to the ropes!"
Natalia knew that time was running out, and she had to get the worm back as soon as possible, otherwise she would be blown away by the wind when the worm couldn't hold on anymore, and then she might not even find the body.
However, it is easy to say, the key is how to save.
The wind outside was so strong that Natalia couldn't have saved the worm with a movement of her mouth, and it would have been nice to have a rope now, and now that the wind was blowing, Natalia could throw the rope at the worm, as long as the worm could tie the rope to herself, so that even if she was blown away by the wind, Natalia would have the confidence to pull the worm back into the carriage like a kite.
"Rope?"
Natalia's heart moved, and she quickly had an idea.
……
Looking at the hook gun stuck in the wall of the carriage in front of her, Natalia first took a deep breath, and then clenched her fists, what she was going to do next was exaggerated, but it was the only way that Natalia could think of at the moment.
Isn't the worm holding a "rope", that is, the end of this "rope" is connected not only to a worm, but also to an off-road vehicle.
If it was only the worm, Natalia would be able to pull her back, but an off-road vehicle, especially in such a wind-swept situation, to be honest, Natalia was not even thirty percent sure in her heart.
But don't say it's thirty percent, even if it's only one percent sure, Natalia is willing to give 100% effort for it, because what she wants to save is not someone else, it's the little worm who will call her "little aunt".
So without further hesitation, Natalia grabbed the left and right of the four huge barbs of the hook gun with both hands, and with a sharp force, she really pulled out some of the hook guns.
Not enough, not enough.
Natalia gritted her teeth, the joints of her ten fingers had turned white, and Natalia was indifferent to the fact that things large and small in the carriage were constantly swept out by the air currents, and her eyes were now only hooked guns, ropes, and bugs that were clutching ropes in the wind.
……
"Ahh
With a loud roar, Natalia, who had exhausted all her strength, finally pulled the hook gun back from the wall of the carriage, and through the hole pierced by the barb in the wall of the carriage, Natalia saw the crumbling worm on the rope, and her arms suddenly gave birth to a force on the ground, and Natalia began to close the distance between herself and the worm little by little.
It's a pity that the wind is too strong.
There were several "bangs", and the four barbs of the hook gun were nailed back to the wall of the pickup, and Natalia's body was also brought forward, almost hitting the thrust at the top of the hook gun, - at most two centimeters, Natalia's throat would be punctured by the thrust.
You must know that the thrust at the tip of the hook gun is very sharp and hard, otherwise how could it penetrate the wall of the pickup, after such a close encounter with death, Natalia was not intimidated, she rolled up her sleeve, ready to make a second attempt.
The off-road vehicle with the engine turned off is equivalent to a piece of iron, it is all dragged forward by the pickup truck with this rope, and it is swayed left and right by the strong wind, so it can be seen that it is not a simple matter for Natalia to pull it over, and the sharp spike is just aimed at Natalia's throat, it can be said that Natalia will pay a heavy price if she is not careful, even her life.
……
"Did you see it, is there a guy over there?"
Inside the off-road vehicle, the two remaining members of the "elite squad" shrank their heads and watched the situation outside, and they vaguely saw a figure being swept out of the pickup truck in front of them by the wind, and it seemed that they had survived by holding the rope.
"You care so much," replied the other, "Huh? Listen to the movement of the hook gun chassis behind you, squeak, are the last two rivets about to break? ”
