Chapter 123: Man-eating Giant Worms
Soon, a huge thing emerged from the hole, first with tentacles like steel whips, followed by two large and amazing chela.
I immediately gasped, it was a giant beetle that was bigger than the dead one. I gritted my teeth and scolded, "What kind of quirk is King Shan Huan, raising so many big bugs in his own tomb." I never dreamed that there would be such a vibrant place beneath the Death Desert of Gurbantunggut! ”
Although I am not usually afraid of bugs, but now that I see this giant alien, I still get goosebumps and feel uncomfortable! I raised the gun in my hand and shook it at Wen Mo, meaning, do you want to end this thing now, so as to prevent future troubles.
Wenmo shook his head slightly, motioning for me not to act rashly, and then pointed to the place and asked me to continue looking.
I took a deep breath and continued to look in that direction, only to see the super giant beetle crawling up slowly, crawling slowly for a distance, and then stopped, and the glow sticks that Wenmo had just thrown on the ground seemed to attract its attention.
Against the backdrop of the faint green light on the ground, this big insect with teeth and claws looks particularly terrifying and weird, and every time it moves, my heart tugs at it.
But soon, I felt that my heart was no longer pounding, and it was almost jumping out of my throat, because I could vaguely see another thing crawling up in that black hole. My head was a little cloudy, and my heart said no! Another one?
But when I saw its two huge chelae, I knew that I was not mistaken, and that another one had climbed up! But before I could come back to my senses, I saw another one crawling up from the hole of the cave......
In this way, I was stunned to see the super giant beetles crawling up one after another, and I almost forgot to breathe, and I roughly counted five beetles of this size.
I was stupid all of a sudden, and involuntarily scolded a dirty word, "I rely on him*\/#$%&@!" Then silently put down the half-raised gun again, in this case, my small pistol has completely lost its effect, even if I have an AK, at this time, if I face the siege of five super giant beetles, the moment I attack one of them, I will be cut in half by the other beetles.
I patted Wen Mo next to me and asked him with my mouth, what should I do? I don't dare make any noise right now, for fear of attracting the attention of those beetle ancestors.
Wen Mo's expression also became very ugly at this time, and he waved his hand to signal me to be quiet.
Looking at the five car-like beetles, walking back and forth in the green light emitted by those glow sticks, the tension in my heart has reached its limit. I felt my body tremble a little, and I couldn't help but hold on to the boulder next to me, and I suddenly felt a little strange, these rocks didn't seem to be hard, and they were a little soft to the touch, as if there was a thick layer of moss growing on the surface.
Since our flashlights are all turned off at this time, I can't see the real situation on these rock faces. Maybe it's the outside situation that affects me, making me feel very uneasy, feeling that danger will appear all the time, and I have a sense of fear of all kinds of unknown objects around me.
I suddenly realized that these rocks didn't seem quite right, and when I came in just now, due to the urgency of the situation, Wenmo and I didn't have time to look at it, so we rushed in. Now I don't think they look like rocks at all, but I can't tell what they are.
I put the hand on it, slowly moved and groped for a while, the more I touched, the more uneasy it made my heart, if it wasn't for the fear that it would attract those big guys, I couldn't wait to turn on the flashlight. Suddenly, my hand felt a depression that felt like a small hole in the rock. But I put my hand on the edge of the hole and touched it, but suddenly I noticed that there were some very hard bumps at the mouth of the hole, which felt like ......
I thought about it for a moment, and in an instant the hairs on my whole body exploded, and I shuddered and took my hand back.
At this time, I have forgotten about the super giant beetles outside, because the thing suddenly found next to me made me even more creepy, I couldn't control the flashlight, when the flashlight lit up, my brain buzzed, I saw that the hole I touched just now turned out to be a half-open shriveled human mouth, and the hard thing is a row of teeth in the mouth, and above the mouth is a nose that has shrunk a little, which is clearly half of a person's face!
Although I tried my best to control it, I still let out a low cry, Wen Mo immediately turned his head, and when he saw me turn on the flashlight, his face changed, "What are you doing!" ”
I pointed to the thing that we thought was a rock, "Look at this. ”
Wen Mo came over to take a look, and he also gasped, and what made us even more frightened was that there was not only this half of the face on it, but all kinds of human body stump parts could be seen around the half of the face being glued together by a gelatinous substance, forming a big group, Wen Mo reached out and touched the surface of the thing, and his brows were furrowed! Not only this one, but several rock-like things next to it are also made of this kind of stump bonding.
I suddenly wanted to throw up and retched a few times, but nothing came out.
Seeing this, I suddenly remembered that when we were trapped under the black tower of the Acropolis, I had seen the secret text of the Tan family, which recorded that twenty years ago, when the four major families broke into the royal city, they were attacked, and many people didn't know what was crushed and crumpled together, could it be that we saw these at this time? These clumps of corpses and stumps are the people who died here in the four major families back then?
At this moment, my whole body was cold, and there was a trace of despair in my heart, and my brain became a little blank. At this moment, a "snort" sound came, and I was instantly awakened by this sound, because I had heard it many times, so I quickly heard that this was the sound of the wings of the human-faced beetle, but this time the sound was relatively loud, and this must have been made by those super giant beetles, which made my whole body feel a spirit.
Wenmo stepped forward and turned off my flashlight, and the two of us immediately looked out nervously, although the surrounding corpses were extremely terrifying, but at least they would not kill anyone. We have calmed down a little, knowing that the behemoths outside are the key to whether we can leave alive, the sudden fright just now made me a little impulsive, and I regretted it a little at this time, but it was irreparable.
Wenmo and I saw that several giant beetles outside seemed to have noticed our presence and were crawling in our direction with their wings fluttering. Seeing this, my heart beat a drum, and after the first few encounters, I knew that the vibration of the wings of the human-faced beetle was actually an act of demonstration and intimidation, and it was obvious that they were planning to attack us.
My heart suddenly felt a desolation at this time, but it was also a little relaxed, what should come will come, maybe it's time to fight hard, I raised my gun and aimed it at one of them, and Wenmo also clenched the short knife.
Just when I felt that these super giant beetles entered the shooting distance that I was most sure of, I suddenly turned on the flashlight, a strong flashlight, so that these beetles were slightly stunned, I seized this opportunity, raised the gun, aimed, shot, "bang bang bang" I aimed at a beetle and fired three shots in a row, the gun hit, a large amount of white liquid splashed out, I don't know if these beetles have pain nerves, but I guess their reflex arc must be very long, Because the beetle was still vibrating its wings and rushing forward for some distance after being shot, and then suddenly it collapsed, I don't know if it was dead, but at least it didn't move.
But before I could breathe a sigh of relief, the other four, after seeing that their companions were attacked, increased their speed significantly, and two of them even stood on their wings and flew, but fortunately they didn't seem to be very good at flying, so they didn't fly very high, and if they did fly into the air to give us an airborne attack from above, then we couldn't parry it at all.
When I was about to aim and shoot again, they had already rushed in front of me, Wenmo and I hurriedly retreated, and the two corpses in front of me were instantly smashed into pieces.
The giant beetles opened their claws and frantically bit at the corpses, and some white slime spurted out of their mouths. Some slime sprayed under our feet, and when we accidentally stepped on it, it felt very sticky, and it seemed that these corpses were the work of these beetles.
I raised my gun and fired at one of them, perhaps because of the beetles' up-and-down churning, or maybe because I was so nervous that I fired two shots in a row and missed both of them. And not only did it not pose a danger to the beetle, but it managed to expose itself and attract the attention of the beetle.
The beetle let out a strange scream, and pounced, I felt like a small car rushing towards me, and for a while my two legs suddenly did not obey the call, and the whole person was stunned there, seeing that the beetle's huge claw was about to clamp on my body, and suddenly I was knocked out by a great force.
I fell to the ground, and then I came back to my senses, and it turned out that it was Wenmo who pulled me to the side at the critical moment. I raised my hand and pumped my mouth, secretly scolding myself for being useless, even if I was bitten to death at the critical moment, I couldn't be scared to death, and there might be a glimmer of life if I fought hard, although I also knew that it was unlikely, but in a word: I'd rather die than cowardly!
I stood up, and found that two more big beetles pounced on us together, Wenmo let out a long howl, attracting the attention of one of them, and the two giant claws slashed at Wenmo, but Wenmo was so agile that he dodged the blow with one dodge, and at the same time, he jumped high, raised the short knife in his hand and aimed it at the back of the neck of the giant beetle and plunged it deeply.
