Chapter 663: Barbed Spear
Chen Ziyang's plan is not bold, and he has also grasped the point. As long as this python can't catch the smell emanating from a few people, then after trying to lure the python away, a few people can go down to the water and get rid of the python completely.
While this plan seems feasible, it is difficult to actually implement. The python was not a dead thing, and it would not obediently stay where it was, leaving a few people to rummage through its nose.
The python is constantly attacking the six people, and it has been moving at a high speed, even if the python sometimes stops for a short time, it is still far away from the six people, and there is no way to observe the situation of the python in detail.
It is very difficult to find out where the organ of the python catches the smell, in addition, there is another point that makes the six people feel very headache, that is, the giant python seems to be tireless, and the impact on the six people has never stopped.
Although several people already know the attack method of the giant python well, they can judge each attack of the giant python in advance and be able to dodge it safely, but after all, the six people have been tossing for so long, consuming a lot of physical strength, and they are already a little lacking in strength.
Especially Chen Ziyang and the other three Maoshan descendants, they had also fought with the wood giant before, if they were consumed by the giant python again, or after a few rounds, the six people would have no way to avoid the giant python's attack because their physical strength was exhausted.
Although the six people have adopted a strategy to separate themselves from each other as much as possible, so as not to let the python threaten everyone in one impact, this strategy has not helped, except for the fact that it can almost only walk in a straight line during the impact, the python's flexibility is still very strong.
Before attacking, the python will keep walking around the six people, compressing the distance between the six people as much as possible, and then attack the six people.
After suffering several times in a row, Chen Ziyang reacted, compared to trying to make the python lose its sense of smell, the main task of several people now is to find a way to limit the movement speed of the python.
Only by reducing the speed of the python can several people use less physical strength to avoid the python's attack, so that it is possible to hold on to the python's attack for a longer time, and it is possible to think of a way to deal with this python.
But what could help them slow down the pythons on this second island in the middle of the lake, which is very flat? Except for chests full of weapons, there was nothing to use here.
Just when Chen Ziyang frowned, feeling that the giant python in front of him had no way to deal with it, he glanced at what Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai were holding in their hands, and suddenly had an idea.
It turned out that when they were dodging the attack of the giant python before, Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai were unwilling to be so passive, and they had the idea of launching a counterattack against the giant python early.
If you want to fight back, you need a weapon at hand. It's not that the two people don't have weapons, but they don't dare to use them. The Uzi submachine gun and pistol are relatively powerful, and they should be able to break the hard scales on the python's body, but the two of them dare not use these two weapons.
The speed of the python rushing forward was too fast, and it swooped in front of several people at once, and it was very difficult to hit such a high-speed moving object with a gun.
Even when the python slows down, but when everyone is panicked to avoid the python's attack, it is easy to accidentally injure other teammates if they shoot rashly, so these two people have not dared to use firearms to deal with the python.
In addition to the firearms, the only weapons left for the two men were sapper shovels. However, the sapper shovel, which had made several meritorious contributions before, was useless this time.
The giant python's body was covered with hard scales, even if the sapper shovel was sharp, there was no way to break through this layer of protection of the giant python, after all, even the Xuanming Ancient Sword, which was many times sharper than the sapper shovel, could not do this.
And the places on the python's body that are not covered with scales are all covered with that kind of venomous glands, and these pimples are not only disgusting to look at, but also not to be underestimated. The venom in the venom gland is very toxic, and these pimples seem to be one of the attack methods of the giant python, and they are easy to rupture.
Whenever these venom glands are attacked by an external force and rupture, a large amount of viscous venom gushes out. Even the mere smell of these venoms can make people feel dizzy, let alone splashed directly on their bodies.
When dealing with the giant python, Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai used the sapper shovel to hit the giant python's body once or twice from time to time, but one after another, the two people used the sapper shovel in their hands to break a lot of poisonous glands on the giant python's body.
However, because the sapper shovel is relatively short, the two people are relatively close to the body of the giant python, and they were almost splashed by venom several times, so these two people have also learned to be obedient, and they don't dare to rashly use the sapper shovel again.
But there are always more ways than difficulties, and after fighting with the giant python for a while, Umbrella Shi Shuai has an idea. Isn't there no weapon to take advantage of, isn't the distance of the sapper shovel not enough, so simply, do it yourself to make some weapons at hand, and make some long weapons.
The entire second island in the middle of the lake is densely packed with some chests, most of which are some weapons, and there are various types of weapons, including spear heads and halberd heads......
These weapons are so well preserved and so sharp that most of them don't even have the slightest rust on them, and they can be used directly, except for a long wooden handle that can be placed behind these weapons and combined with the weapons.
Naturally, there was no way to find the long wooden handle in this place, but the umbrella stone handsome found something else, that is, a sapper shovel.
This sapper shovel in the hands of two people can change the shovel head, adjust the shovel head into different shapes, and this sapper shovel can be transformed into several tools.
At the end of the shovel head, under the handle of the sapper shovel, the part connected to the shovel head, there is a long "concave" shaped steel plate. This steel plate is usually fixed near the shovel handle of the sapper shovel to enhance the combination of the shovel head and the shovel handle of the sapper shovel, so that the shovel head of the shovel will not shake back and forth when the sapper shovel is used.
In addition to this, this concave steel plate has other uses. If the head of the sapper shovel is turned 90 degrees, the long concave steel plate will point straight forward, and the entire sapper shovel will become a simple pickaxe.
And Umbrella Stone Shuai accidentally discovered that when he turned the head of the sapper shovel over and turned the sapper shovel into a pickaxe, the concave steel plate in front of it could be inserted into the back of the head of a spear, so that the entire sapper shovel became the long handle of the spear.
Although the length of the sapper shovel is not long, even if this section of concave steel plate is added, the length does not grow anywhere, but if you add the spear head, the combination of the sapper shovel and the spear head can barely be regarded as a long-handled weapon, and it is relatively safe to attack the python at this distance, and the sharp spear head is much easier to use than the sapper shovel.
With this kind of weapon at hand, Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai turned from defense to attack, and the target of their attack was the two big eyes of the giant python. is the so-called fighting and picking out the eyeballs, the idea of these two people is also very simple, as long as this giant python is blinded, maybe the crisis of several people will be lifted.
However, because the speed of the python is too fast, and the python also pays attention to protecting its own eyes, the two of them attacked several times in a row, but they did not receive any effect.
However, what Umbrella Shishuai didn't expect was that although his unintentional action did not cause much damage to the giant python, it gave Chen Ziyang an inspiration and let Chen Ziyang know how to limit the speed of the giant python.
This spear head is composed of two parts, in addition to the most common fusiform spear head, behind this lance, there is a wide barb, more than 20 centimeters long.
This barb is bent in the opposite direction of the spear head, and both sides of the barb are all bladed, which is very sharp, and the existence of this barb suddenly doubles the power of the spear head.
The head of a normal spear has no power after being stabbed out, and needs to be retracted before it can be stabbed again, but with this barb, this spear head becomes different.
The barb more than 20 centimeters long makes the effective attack area of the spear much larger when stabbing forward, and it is easier to cause damage to the soldiers in front.
After the spear is stabbed, if it does not stab the enemy, the head of the spear will be behind the enemy's neck, so that when the spear is pulled back, the barb attack is launched from the back of the enemy's neck, making the enemy even more defenseless.
Such a simple design, did not use much more steel, but made the power of the head of the entire spear more than twice as much, no wonder in the Tang Dynasty during the Tang Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the army of the Tang Dynasty will be so strong, from this one gun head can be seen a lot of things.
What Chen Ziyang needs to use is the barb behind the head of these guns. The arc of these barbs is very large, if these barbs are placed facing the sky, if the python rushes through the barbs at high speed, it will definitely be hooked by these barbs, so that the speed of the python will be reduced.
And if the speed of the python has not decreased, then there is only one possibility, that is, these sharp barbs have pierced the thick scales on the surface of the python and directly caused damage to the python, which is even much better than the python slowing down.
I don't know how many boxes of spears like this kind of spears have on this island in the middle of the lake, probably because spears are a relatively common weapon, and the tips of these spears can be found everywhere, and almost more than half of the boxes that were knocked over by the python were filled with the tips of this kind of spear.
The method is there, the number of spear heads is enough, and the remaining problem is that someone needs to put the spear heads of these spears in place.
The size of the python is very large, and the speed is also very fast, if you want to use these spear heads to reduce the speed of the python, or to cause damage to it, you need a lot of quantity, only the number of them, with these spear heads on the ground to put out a large enough area, can have the desired effect.
"Brother Jin, take turns with me to lure away the giant python, and the others will act according to the plan." After telling the other people his thoughts in the most concise language, Chen Ziyang shouted loudly to Jin Huang.
This tactic is very simple, Chen Ziyang hopes that he and Jin Huang can lure the python to the other side of the island in the middle of the lake, where they can deal with the python as much as possible, delay some time, and let the four people on this side arrange a large number of spears and spearheads on the ground.
Wait until this side is arranged, and then the two of them will lure the python back to this area, so that if the python slides through the spear heads of these spears, even if it does not die, it will be hooked by the barbs on these spear heads, so that the six people will have a chance to kill the python, or take the opportunity to get out of here.
In order to attract the attention of the giant python, Chen Ziyang and Jin Huang used their own means. Jin Huang hit some of the weaker magic weapons he got towards the giant python's head one by one, although the giant python is a kind of Gu and is not an evil thing, but these magic weapons are still very painful to hit its head.
And Chen Ziyang took out his soul suppression paperweight, and took advantage of the fact that the giant python was a little dazed by Jin Huang, and was stunned on the spot, and kept hitting the giant python's head with the soul suppression paperweight.
Even if it is refined into a Gu python, this giant python also has a soul, as long as it is something with a soul, it will suffer incomparably under the attack of the soul suppression paperweight.
The two people's successive heavy blows angered the giant python, and the giant python completely targeted the two people. Seeing that the strategy worked, Chen Ziyang hurriedly ran with Jin Huang into the distance and lured the giant python away from the crowd.
When the python was lured away, Chen Ziyang took out an Uzi submachine gun. I didn't dare to use it before because I was afraid of accidentally hurting other people, but now it's different, the python has moved away from the crowd, and now I don't have to wait any longer.
After a series of gunshots, more than a dozen bullets were swept out by Chen Ziyang, and seven or eight bullets directly hit the python's body, some white viscous substances secreted from the venom glands were splashed out, and two bullets hit the python's head, obviously causing a lot of damage to the python.
Under the pain, the giant python did not turn around and run away, but opened its mouth wide and pursued in the direction of Chen Ziyang and Jin Huang at a faster speed.
After successfully attracting the attention of the giant python to his body, Chen Ziyang made a gesture to Jin Huang, and the two of them ran away to the left and right sides respectively, preparing to take turns to attract the attention of the giant python.
