Chapter 231: The Battle of the Desert Worms (Part II)
As a gerbil beast, Squeak is undoubtedly a lucky one, it first defeated ten siblings when it was born, was the first to grab its mother's *** to avoid starvation due to lack of milk, and then passed the dangerous juvenile period safely, neither eliminated by the cruel natural environment, nor eaten by those powerful and cruel monsters.

Of course, the most proud thing was that it managed to snatch the golden egg of the tenth lord of the desert, Saru, the king of the desert, from his master.
You must know that it is the food that all gerbil beasts dream of, and in order to be able to eat a bite, they even do not hesitate to attack the underground labyrinth of the ancient desert ruins, even if they die on the road, they have no regrets.
The reason is very simple, most gerbil beasts have a short lifespan of only three years, and after three years, they will grow back to rapid aging and death, and only by eating the magical eggs of the king of the desert can they break through the upper limit of lifespan, and each egg eaten can provide an additional year of lifespan, and the legendary golden egg can be increased by more than ten years.
This is also the reason why every once in a while, the vast sand sea will be the situation of the lord running wild, not because they like to cause trouble, but because they have to do it in order to survive.
What does more than a decade mean for a gerbil?
It means that it will not have to worry about dying for a long time, let alone desperately attack the underground labyrinth of the ancient city ruins in order to survive for a year or two longer.
Although this comes at the cost of freedom, Squeak doesn't regret it at all, knowing full well that it won't be able to survive the treacherous underground labyrinth, so it prefers to honestly choose to sign a contract and become an assistant to the adventurer.
But at this moment, seeing Lu Li's ill-intentioned eyes, it suddenly had a feeling of horror, as if it saw a poisonous snake passing by the nest when it was a child, and its whole body trembled involuntarily.
"Squeak Squeak Squeak!!"
Out of trust in its sixth sense, it shook its little head vigorously, desperately trying to refuse this extremely dangerous task.
However, Lu Li naturally couldn't allow the little guy to escape, and chuckled and reassured: "Don't worry, you have a magic carapace, so you are not so easily injured, and it is impossible to die." And the task is simple, see this oval thing? I'll throw them into the worm's stomach one by one in a moment, you just need to open the magic carapace, rush in and pull off the iron ring on top. How's that, easy, right?"
Squeak stared at the high-explosive grenade, which was larger than herself, with a frightened look, and then turned her head to look at the massive size of the giant worm, and her eyes rolled and fainted.
It had seen grenades explode, and it had seen the acid spewing out of worms, and it seemed that if it had gotten into the monster's belly, it would never have come out alive.
Lu Li obviously didn't expect the gerbil beast's courage to be so small, and before he could finish the task, he completely fainted.
In desperation, he had to boil the kettle and pour some water.
Feeling the coolness of the water running across his face, Squeak instantly woke up with a clever wit, and let out a piercing scream as he struggled hard.
"Squeak squeak!!"
"Alright, alright, calm down! You haven't started your mission yet. Listen to me, as long as you can complete this quest, I will take you to a place where there is plenty of food and no danger to live, and I promise to provide you with a few eggs of the Desert King every once in a while. Think about it, what a good deal you can make if you take a little risk in exchange for a happy life in the future. Seeing that it was useless to appease, Lu Li immediately replaced it with a lure.
"Squeak?"
As soon as it heard the words such as that the food was plentiful and there was no danger, the gerbil beast immediately straightened up, its two large black eyes flickering, as if to ask, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
Lu Li smiled and pointed to the adventurer's badge on his chest: "I swear in the name of the goddess of deception and strategy, Ista, what I just said is the truth. ā
Squeak is undoubtedly tempted, compared to the harsh climate, poor food, and dangerous vast sand sea, a place with plenty of food and no danger is simply a dream paradise.
After struggling for a few seconds, it quickly nodded, indicating that it agreed to take the question.
Seeing this, Lu Li smiled and approved: "Very good, believe me, you definitely made a right choice." Remember, before pulling off the metal ring, be sure to pay attention to the distance, starting with the tail, on average, one every six times I am so long to detonate, after pulling the metal ring must run fast, you only have three seconds to escape the explosion range. ā
"Squeak!"
Although her whole body trembled with fear, Squeak nodded her little head to show that she understood.
"Great! So let's act now!" Lu Li patted the little guy on the back encouragingly, opened the backpack full of ammunition, and took out ten high-explosive grenades from it in one go.
Since he had no magic powers, he had to use this dangerous internal blast to destroy the heart of the giant worm that was hiding somewhere.
"Woohoo, come here, lure that stupid big guy over!" After taking out the grenade, Lu Li immediately shouted loudly.
Xiu Xiu, who was already exhausted, received the order, and without saying a word, quickly retreated, and ran quickly in the direction where his master was.
The worm, which had no ability to think, didn't realize that it was a death trap at all, opened its mouth and chased after it, and when it entered the fifty-meter range, Lu Li immediately raised one of them and threw it out.
Squeak clung to the grenade at this moment, slashed a graceful parabola across the sky, and slammed down the huge intestines of the golden worm.
Without any time to hesitate, it instantly activated its magic carapace, dragged the grenade and ran towards the deepest part.
About six or seven seconds later, the body of the worm's tail part suddenly made a loud noise, and the whole body swelled up, showing an unhealthy dark red, and you don't need to ask to know that it must be a massive internal hemorrhage.
Seeing that the plan had begun to work, Lu Li waved his fist excitedly and said to himself: "Perfect!
Next came the second, third, fourth, fifth......
As one explosion after another sounded in the giant worm's body, the muscles on its body contracted more and more slowly, and finally it completely became a snail-like speed, and several times it tried to escape by getting into the sand, but was forced back by the bullets of the M500 revolver.
When the last grenade detonated on its head, it convulsed and finally swallowed its last breath, dark red plasma slowly flowing down its fanged mouthparts.
Squeak also escaped from the explosion range safely, squatting on the sand with palpitations, looking at the behemoth that died at his own hands...... (To be continued.) )
