Chapter Twenty-Five: Escalation to the Top
There is no doubt that this is a very experienced mercenary squad. Where to chase novels, go fast, and go fast
Soon, they found the corpse of the steel-shelled mutant who had been killed by Hong Yi, and the captain of the mercenary team rushed over as soon as possible.
"Captain, lo and behold, this is it." A mercenary scout pointed to the corpse in front of him and said excitedly.
Although the shell of this steel-shelled mutant is full of claw marks, it is still worth a lot of money, and this is for nothing.
The captain looked over and said, "This guy once fought with a mutant, and the other party is at least the second level of the white star, but obviously the other party has nothing to do with it, because the cause of its death is not because of these claw marks on the shell, come, let's turn it over together." ”
Immediately, seven or eight people turned the steel-shelled mutant upside down, and finally, they saw the fatal wound.
In the center of the abdomen of the steel-shelled mutant, there was an inlet port, and all the mercenaries who saw this scene were in disbelief.
"No way, the steel-shelled mutant also has an endoskeleton defense in its abdomen, and although it's not as hard as the shell, it's impossible for a normal bullet to penetrate it, let alone kill it." A mercenary pulled out a dagger and stabbed it through the wound, and sure enough, after stabbing two centimeters, it was blocked by the hard endoskeleton inside, and it could not be advanced again.
Since there is an endoskeleton protection, this bullet may not be a fatal wound, this is the idea of most mercenaries, but the captain of this mercenary team has been frowning, he looked at the purple blood flowing on the ground, and then looked at the corpse of the steel-shelled mutant, shook his head and said, "No, you dug a bullet in the wound?" If it is blocked by the inner bone fragment, there will definitely be a bullet left, but you see, this is obviously a penetrating wound, and there is so much blood shed, which means that it must be a fatal wound. ”
"But captain, there is an inner bone fragment defense, and the bullet can't hit it at all, how can this be explained?" A mercenary asked puzzled.
The captain sighed and said, "If only I had the fuck to know, I'll tell you, I have a hunch that the bullet must be inside the corpse, although I don't know how the other party did it, but the person who killed this steel-shelled mutant must be a master, maybe a high-level evolutionary." ”
The mercenaries were a little gloomy when they heard this, they were just ordinary mercenaries, and most of them were just ordinary people, not even the most ordinary White Star Level 1 Evolutionaries.
"Okay, let's get to work, since God has given us such a gift, we have to accept it, and we will carry it to the trailer together, and if we can catch the other one by a trap today, we will be double happy, and I will invite everyone to drink in the evening." After the captain finished speaking, he simply stopped thinking about it.
But in his heart, he kept wondering, who killed this steel-shelled mutant?
Everyone knows that the steel shell mutant is valuable, but this mutant is too difficult to kill, even if it can be killed, it will never be possible to do it without destroying the shell, and the cause of death of this mutant is also strange, if his own guess is correct, then the secret that the person who killed this steel shell mutant has is worth it.
Let's just say that their team has mastered a technique of hunting steel shell mutants, that is, relying on traps, first controlling the actions of steel shell mutants, and then using a special impact drill bit to penetrate the shell of steel shell mutants and destroy its brain, even so, their success rate is not high, it is good to succeed once in two or three days, because some steel shell mutants are very powerful, even if there are traps, they can break free.
But even so, their squad has also accumulated a lot of wealth by hunting the steel shell mutant, at least the adjutant Zhi Brain is one for everyone, so they know the benefits of hunting the steel shell mutant, if they can know that they can hunt this creature without destroying the steel shell mutant shell, then they can definitely make a fortune with it.
In the southwest corner of the Salt Lake District, there is a large, dry riverbed where few mercenaries would normally want to come, as there is only one extremely troublesome mutant here.
Ant-Man mutant.
This mutant has no mission to hunt it down, as they have nothing to use on them, and they are so numerous that they are extremely difficult to kill, so hunting them simply outweighs the cost.
But today, someone came specifically for the Ant-Man mutant.
Hong Yi parked his car behind a boulder in the distance, then walked hundreds of meters to the vicinity of an anthill at a distance, and ordered Yanfang to keep watch around, while he himself observed the surrounding environment on a high ground.
This area is very large, four or five kilometers deep, the terrain is sunken, there is no sign of human activity, and two hundred meters away, several ant-people with a body length of more than one and a half meters are wandering, and further away is an anthill up to ten meters high, like a pyramid-like shape, of course, this is only the part on the ground, most of the anthill is located underground.
In the mutant data stored in the adjutant brain, this is what is said about the anthill, and the size of the entire anthill can be inferred from the size of the anthill on the ground.
It is generally a ratio of 1:10, and the anthill on the ground only accounts for one-tenth of the entire anthill, and the number of ant-man mutants in an anthill of this size is at least more than 5,000.
There is no doubt that this is the best source of experience for Hong Yi, and the most important reason why he chose the Salt Lake area today is to hunt these large numbers of Ant-Man mutants, as for the steel shell mutants, it is just to make a little money by the way.
Ant-Man mutants can basically reach the first level of the white star, some can reach the second level of the white star, it is said that some elite ant-people can reach the third level of the white star, as for the queen ant, there is no specific data, but the queen ant will only be in the deepest part of the anthill and will not appear.
Hunting these ant-man mutants will reward you with a lot of experience, and there will be no other mercenaries here, so Hong Yi will not be disturbed by others, which is what Hong Yi values the most.
Ant-Man mutants are not weak compared to other mutants, on the contrary, they are very strong, especially Ant-Man rarely acts alone, which increases the difficulty of hunting, in addition, they also have a shell outside their bodies, although they are not as perverted as steel-shell mutants, but some parts also have bulletproof capabilities, it is difficult to kill them, and if you make a mess, you are likely to fall into siege.
It's just that Hong Yi has a solution to these troubles, he has a weak point to shoot, he can kill the target more quickly, he has the second-level mutant of the white star of the smoke fart, which can be used as a meat shield to block some fish that attack him from slipping through the net, in addition, if he really gets into trouble, Hong Yi's speed and 'dodge' skills are enough to let him get out of the combat area before being surrounded.
This is the biggest reliance on the Ant-Man mutant that he dares to run to hunt and kill other mercenaries that he dare not provoke.
The effective lethal range of the Hell-5 large-caliber rifle is more than 500 meters, and it is even more powerful when combined with steel-core armor-piercing bullets. At this moment, Hong Yi's tactical vest is filled with eight bullet-filled magazines, and there is one more on the gun, a total of nine magazines, which can be said to be enough for firepower and ammunition.
This is only two hundred meters away from the ant-man mutants in front of him, and with the electronic crosshair and weak point shooting, Hong Yi can easily snipe from a long distance.
"Let's get started!" Hong Yi first checked his current hunter level and experience value, his current hunter level is level 4, experience value is 15 points, and he is still 185 experience points away from level 5.
Aiming at an Ant-Man mutant, Hong Yi pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and a bullet pierced the back of an Ant-Man mutant's head, bursting out a cloud of gray-white liquid, and the Ant-Man mutant lay directly on the ground, motionless.
"Kill 1 normal Ant-Man mutant and gain 1 experience point."
Killed by one shot.
Several Ant-Man mutants around them immediately became agitated, with two tentacles on top of their heads, which could sense movement within a radius of hundreds of meters around them.
It also takes time to react, and this time is enough for Hong Yi to pull the trigger a second time.
One more shot, and the second Ant-Man mutant fell to the ground and died, followed by a third......
Hong Yi's weak point shooting guarantees that he can be killed with one shot in this situation, of course, if it is other mercenaries, it is difficult to do this.
And after three shots, the ant people also discovered Hong Yi's location.
They let out high-frequency sounds to warn, and at the same time, seven or eight ant-man mutants began to pounce quickly in the direction where Hong Yi was, as fast as a cheetah.
Ant-Man has six legs, one or two pairs of forelimbs for attack, and can run at full strength as fast as a car.
Hong Yi didn't panic at all and continued to pull the trigger.
Every time a gunshot sounds, an Ant-Man mutant rolls and falls to death, Hong Yi shoots extremely fast, and in the end, there is only one Ant-Man left who can rush within 30 meters of him.
And this Ant-Man was knocked down by the smoke fart the next moment.
Before Hong Yi could catch his breath, more Ant-Man rushed in the distance, and at this time, Hong Yi also sped up, he was like a calm shooter, all he had to do was to aim and shoot, the bullet casings fell around one after another, and soon, Hong Yi emptied a magazine.
He quickly replaced it with a new magazine and continued to shoot, at which point he used it for bursts, because sometimes, he also needed bullets to block the impact of Ant-Man, and naturally, the consumption of bullets was greater.
It was only a few minutes, and within more than two hundred meters in front of Hong Yi, there were already the corpses of a large number of Ant-Man mutants.
If someone sees this scene, they will definitely be stunned, because no one has ever done it to this extent, although the Ant-Man mutant is not as difficult to kill as the steel-shell mutant, it is also a mutant that is difficult to deal with, and at this moment, it is simply a one-sided slaughter.
The barrel of Hong Yi's rifle was already hot, but there were more and more ant-man mutants crawling out of the anthill.
"Sure enough, it's troublesome!" Hong Yi frowned, replaced the empty magazine, and continued to shoot continuously.
And the smoke fart came in handy at this time, objectively speaking, if there was no smoke fart, Hong Yi could only accept it at this time and flee immediately, but if there was a powerful meat shield like smoke fart in front to attract attacks, then Hong Yi's retreat time could be postponed backwards.
