Chapter 78: Beast Intuition

With such a metal behemoth leading the way ahead, the team moved quite quickly.

Just sitting in the car, looking at the apes jumping in the forest from time to time, and the soldiers wearing camouflage around him, Xiao Yu suddenly felt a little depressed-

What kind of noise is this full of "Metal Slug"!

What's more, I'm still a creep that has been brushed up!

It's not even a mini-boss, it's a faint soul!

In addition to this, there is one more trouble. That is, every half hour or so, this bulldozer has to stop to refuel and cool down.

Taking advantage of this short rest time, everyone has to seize the time to solve any physiological needs. And for safety reasons, no solo action is allowed.

It just so happened that Xiao Yu also felt a little urgent, so he walked towards the jungle with the others.

……

The smell of humidity wafting through the air was hot from the sun, and even though it was filtered by the wide green leaves, the sunlight still felt fiery. Under the feet is a thick, soft brown humus, and the water is squeezed out with a twist of the fingers. Many ants and insects are busy in the dense grass around them, and a few hornbills and parrots with their wings fluttering.

The group didn't have long to walk before they were surrounded by a sea of exuberant green. Looking at the giant trees and vigorous vines that were tens of meters high, a primitive and barbaric aura came to my face.

Here is a sea of flowers, a sea of forests. All kinds of unnamed trees grow majestically, reaching tens of meters high. Between the trees, there are all kinds of vines tangled and tangled, and they are messy. Some trees even have new saplings growing on them, with yellow, purple, and red flowers, which are layered and colorful.

The big trees go straight into the sky, the clouds cover the fog cage, the water mist in the forest is filled, the sunlight is scarce, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of dead branches and fallen leaves, and when you step on it, it is soft like a mud pond.

"Give you three minutes, and everyone will solve it as soon as possible."

Even if it's a, no one likes to look at other people's convenience, so everyone separates.

Xiao Yu found a corner, and after solving the physiological problem, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

A strong, menacing feeling on his back made the cold hairs on his neck stand up slightly. It's the feeling of being targeted by a powerful enemy or beast.

When a martial artist practices to a certain level, he can often awaken a certain beast instinct. It's mysterious to say, but you can point your finger at your eyebrows, and you can obviously feel the faint sense of oppression. In fact, the cultivation of martial artists is a process of activating and discovering potential.

Clearly, something was eyeing him.

Xiao Yu took a deep breath, the muscles in his body began to tense, and he was ready to fight back at any time.

After a brief stalemate, the feeling of pressure on the back quickly receded.

Turning his head quickly, he saw only a creature with dark yellow fur flashing in the back of his vision, as swift as a ghost.

Exhaling softly, Xiao Yu was about to greet the others, when he suddenly heard a scream not far away!

The scream was terrible, and it was choked in his throat for less than two seconds.

Soon the crowd came together.

"What's going on?"

"Who was calling just now?"

After counting the number of people, I found that in just a few moments, three people had disappeared!

Everyone's faces are not very good-looking. The non-commissioned officer, who was obviously one rank higher, gritted his teeth and said, "Find!" Every group of three, split up and contact! ”

A minute later, the location where the three disappeared had been determined, after all, it was just a solution to the health problem, and it was impossible to run too far.

However, there was only a pool of dark red blood on the ground, and there was no trace of too much struggle, and the rifle fell aside, picked it up and checked, and the bullets inside were still full.

In other words, these three soldiers were killed by an unknown enemy, and they didn't even have time to fight back, and if it weren't for the last rapid scream, more people would have been hunted silently.

Tick, tick.

The soldier didn't pay attention to the cold raindrops dripping from the trees at first, but he soon smelled a smell of rust, and when he reached out to wipe it, he found that his hands were covered with blood!

"On the tree, on the tree!" The soldier hurriedly shouted.

Everyone hurriedly raised their heads, and saw that on one of the trunks of this huge banyan tree, three dead soldiers were hanging, their chests were torn open, their necks twisted into strange angles, and their deaths were terrible.

"Who did it?!" The non-commissioned officer at the head roared angrily.

One soldier quickly said: "Judging from the wounds, they should have been attacked by a large carnivore, sneaking up from behind, and the blow was fatal." In addition, it is very likely that the creatures that can hang them on the trees are jungle cheetahs......"

The mountains and forests are often places of discoloration, and even the pervasive agents are rarely here, with plagues, miasma, staggering amounts of poisons, and ferocious carnivorous creatures, each of which can threaten human life and make you die a miserable death. If you are an ordinary ordinary person, you will be in danger of being buried in the mouth of a beast if you are not careful.

But the killing of one person can still be described as bad luck, and the fact that three people are quietly hunted in a row is by no means a matter of predation.

You know, man is afraid of wild beasts, and wild beasts are also afraid of man. When most beasts see humans, their first thought is not to hunt, but to hide.

If the cheetah was really hungry to kill the soldiers, then killing one person is the limit, because hungry animals do not have the habit of wasting food, let alone hanging food in such a conspicuous place......

"Obviously, this is not a hunt, but a provocation."

"The question is why is it provocative? Just because we invaded its territory? ”

"With so many of us acting together, how could that beast have so much audacity?"

In fact, the human body is not as weak as imagined.

Humans do not have the same thick hair as other animals, which means that the human body can quickly dissipate heat, has excellent endurance, and can support long runs and chases, which may not be particularly outstanding among vegetarians who generally pay attention to endurance, but among carnivores and omnivores, humans can be called the king.

In ancient times, primitive people hunted, often not relying on weapons to kill the prey, but relying on amazing endurance, in the long chase of several hours, the prey wrapped in a thick layer of hair was chased alive until exhaustion and heat fainting, and then the hunt was successful.

It is important to know that an adult man weighs roughly sixty to eighty kilograms, which is far stronger than a coyote of thirty or forty kilograms, comparable to a leopard, and belongs to large and medium-sized creatures in the animal kingdom.

In the eyes of any predator, a human being of this size is anything but ordinary, and it is. When lives are threatened, it is not uncommon for adult men to kill wolves and subdue leopards with their bare hands.

So, when so many people get together, what kind of animal is so ferocious, that instead of running away, it comes to kill people and provoke them.

"Is it because we're convenient on its turf? No, no, no, it doesn't make sense. ”

The means by which animals divide their territory is usually very simple: most of them express their territorial sovereignty with urine, feces, hair, and other things with obvious information hormones.

Most of the apex predators, however, are celibates. For example, the tigers, whose hunting range is 100 square kilometers, how could they collide so coincidentally?

At this time, Xiao Yu's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered the yellow shadow that flashed before, and muttered:

"Do you remember the little beast that the convoy accidentally hit and killed earlier? Do you think it's going to be its cubs? ”

Everyone suddenly realized.

That's right, there is another way to make animals go crazy in desperation, besides food and territory.

Caring for cubs is the nature of almost all creatures. For example, when the chicks are just born, the old hen even dares to peck at people. The cat that has not been born for a long time, even the owner does not dare to touch it more, and you beg for mercy every minute to ensure that you scratch it, and you still dare not say anything.

"What to do? The car is about to leave, and we can't play hide and seek with it all the time. ”

“…… Get back! ”

It's not easy to catch a stealthy beast in this jungle. Moreover, the purpose of everyone's trip was to find the ruins, and the boss would never stop and waste time for the sake of three soldiers.

However, Xiao Yu knew very well that the predator was definitely in contact with everyone.
