Chapter 299: Giant Bones
Obviously, the storm tower at the entrance to the dungeon was not used to prevent the occurrence of severe weather, but on the contrary, it further contributed to the formation of the storm, causing layers of sandstorms around the entrance......
"No matter, just ask General Bai when I go back......"
After a moment's pause, 659 decisively gave up the idea of contemplating further.
He is not an idler, and there are more important things for him to accomplish at the moment.
Although the incident of the Storm Tower made him feel a little confused, it was not a matter that needed to be solved urgently, so it was no problem to put it aside for a while.
Walking out of the dusty storm circle, 659's vision instantly widened, and due to the absence of dark clouds, the light of the red moon sprinkled on the earth again, although the visibility was still not very high, but at least there was no need to turn on the infrared imaging mode in the monocle.
The rugged coastline is located on the left side of 659, and on the right side is an endless stretch of flat land, with occasional abrupt reefs mixed in, but not a trace of vegetation or animals.
Scanning the open environment around him, 659 suddenly understood the role of the storm tower.
Geographically, the entrance to the dungeon was supposed to be a shallow sea, with a natural barrier formed by the sea water to block the outside world from prying into the entrance.
But now that the sea has dried up for unknown reasons, the undefended entrance to the dungeon has been exposed, and it is easy to spot it in this uncovered situation.
The Terrans are already weak, and if the hostile forces discover the entrance to the dungeon, the fate of the inhabitants of the city can be imagined.
The dust kicked up by the Reverse Storm Tower is the last barrier to ensure the safety of the dungeon.
Although it is not clear what the situation is during the day, in the dark, combined with the sand and dust in the sky, can prevent the hostile forces from discovering the existence of the entrance to a certain extent.
"I don't know if this is the idea of the Frog clan or the masterpiece of the white general, but it seems that it is indeed a good protection measure at present."
After figuring out the problem in his heart, 659 sped up the speed of his journey by a few points, although the thermal insulation effect of the Daredevil's protective suit was great, but due to the problem of energy supply, 659 could only stay for two hundred hours in this cold night.
What will happen next is unknown, so if you can save a little time now, it will definitely be a good thing for Zhang Heng-659.
"Follow the coastline all the way east until you see ......"
After marching for nearly half an hour, 659 was thinking about the words that General Bai had given him, and suddenly he caught a glimpse of something different.
The red moonlight and the heavy twilight are like a wedding veil, silently shrouded in the earth.
A huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of it, like a naturally formed mountain rock, but from a distance, it seemed that there was something more in it that the mountain rock did not have.
659, who kept moving forward, looked up, and the words that were halfway through his mouth came to an abrupt end.
Less leaning, only then did a word come from inside the mask.
"Giant Skeleton ......"
The ground mixed with sand and gravel creaked beneath his feet, and 659 took three steps and two steps, trotting towards the huge black shadow in front of him.
As the distance continued to close, the curtain of night gradually opened before his eyes, and under the light of the red moon, a huge skeleton appeared on the sand.
The bones were piled up on the ground, the highest position was about six meters above the ground, and the body was covered with floating earth and gravel, as if it had been dragged by something, and under the weight of the body, the already soft ground was ploughed into ravines.
The flesh and blood on it had long since disappeared, leaving only the pale and withered skeleton and the strangely shaped carapace, like
It is a dilapidated building, telling the story of the past with those broken walls.
"This is what the white general said about the landmark, the giant skeleton."
Slowly approaching the skeleton, 659 called up the camera function on the monocle, recording and analyzing the skeleton in front of him.
"Biological remains have been detected, and the database is being compared......
The pale green stream of data swept through the lens pool, reflecting in the deep eyes of 659.
"Suitable organisms have been searched and relevant data are being presented"
Two seconds later, the monocle equivalent of a battlefield assistant gave the results of the search.
[Creature Serial Number: 666]
"Biocodename: Dragon-shaped Mantis Shrimp"
"Description: The shrimp predator variant, which is essentially a pure virional organism, a carnivorous arthropod, mobile and slow, with a mature dragon-shaped mantis shrimp capable of reaching eight meters in length, and its main means of attack is smashing."
"Warning: The mature dragon-shaped mantis shrimp is often found in shallow waters, preferring to approach its prey slowly and hammer it with a chelica hook on its chest."
"Note: Male dragon-shaped mantis shrimp in the mature stage tend to spontaneously form groups after mating, with the number of colonies ranging from 10 to 100 individuals."
"After forming a specific group, these male dragon-shaped mantis shrimp will start hammering each other and devouring each other until there is only one left in the group, and the remaining dragon-shaped mantis shrimp will quickly metamorphose into a royal branch."
"The size of the king shrimp that has completed the metamorphosis will further increase, and according to the records, the longest king shrimp can reach 30 meters in length."
"The Point Guard Is Here"
After reading the feedback on the lenses, 659 gasped.
According to his records, even the dragon-shaped mantis shrimp in the royal branch is at most thirty meters long.
At present, the length of this skeleton, roughly estimated, is nearly fifty meters.
"Such a terrifying creature has become a dry bone ......"
Standing in front of the skeleton, 659 sighed faintly.
Gamma creatures are usually solitary creatures with territorial awareness, they are large and have various characteristics, and as long as they do not become their prey or avoid their territory, they will not be attacked.
The dragon-shaped mantis shrimp with biological serial number 666 is a mutated creature that has been assigned to the gamma class, but their ferocious characteristics do not quite match the characteristics of the gamma class.
It may also be because of the characteristics of group fighting, which has prompted the large number of royal branches in this mutated creature.
After all, a powerful existence can only be born in a never-ending struggle, which has been a law since ancient times, and it is also the only iron rule for the operation of the universe.
However, even if it is a dragon-shaped mantis shrimp that has become a branch of the king, with a body length of more than 50 meters, and does not stand at the top, it will inevitably become a dry bone.
Sighing and sighing, 659 made sure that there was no threat around him, and then he bypassed the bones in front of him and began to walk towards the shore.
Before setting out, Bai Donggu had said that the appearance of the giant skeleton marked that he had officially stepped into the eastern hunting area, and its periphery was filled with a large number of strange beasts, although dangerous, it was also an excellent place for hunters to obtain resources.
As long as you are not too lucky, you can always get a lot of prey on the periphery by pulling a few familiar hunter companions.
However, the adoptive father of the little girl Zhang Jiayi, Zhang Ning, was injured and no one was willing to team up with him, causing him to enter the hunting area alone.
In fact, it's normal to think about it, after all, in the process of hunting, no one can predict what kind of powerful prey will appear in the next second, the destruction of the end times makes the survivors more cold-blooded, everyone is pinning their heads to the waistband to live, and who wants their companions
Is it a burden with a wound?
Only a fledgling first-order ability would reluctantly agree to go with Zhang Ning if he hoped that the other party's injury would not be serious.
"Listening to General Bai's description, Zhang Ning once mentioned to him in his spare time the position where he often hunts......
The pace of progress slowed down, and the content of the conversation was played on 659's monocle in time.
In the picture, it is still the bright N-B area master control center, the simple solid wood round table is full of dishes, and the foreign wines of different colors are randomly stacked, which is incompatible with the current desolation.
Bai Donggu, who had just laid out the map, propped himself up on the table with one hand, motioning for 659 to come closer and watch.
"I'll tell you about the ...... on this map first."
It seems that because of the use of his abilities, the white general looks a little tired.
"First of all, as a second-order flesh enhancement system ability, without the help of the brain domain enhancement system, it should be impossible for Zhang Ning to enter the middle level of the eastern hunting area, and the periphery is his best hunting range."
The white-gloved left hand dotted on the map and drew a small circle.
"Before the end of the world, this area consisted of several villages and towns, stretching from northwest to southeast, covering an area of about 600 hectares, which translates to almost six square kilometers."
"After the outbreak of the end times, the densely populated city gradually became the territory of zombies because of the occupation of general-level zombies;"
"And the inaccessible wild is the world of alien beasts, and after a long period of development, it has become the territory of alien beasts;"
"Our human race is weak, and we can only survive in the gap between the territory of the undead and the alien beast race, and this eastern hunting area is one of the few places that the undead and the alien beast race are not very willing to occupy."
"The specific reason is not clear, it is estimated that there are no resources to meet them internally, so they are too lazy to compete, and it is precisely because of this, the eastern hunting area is full of a large number of low-intelligence zombies and strange beasts, which can be regarded as a wild land."
Hearing this, 659's question came from the video.
"Since this place is a wild land, why don't the Terrans simply occupy this area, although the infrastructure that can be provided in the villages and towns is not as good as that in the cities, it is better than living like a rat living underneath like now."
Hearing 659's question, Bai Donggu waved his hand, and a trace of bitterness appeared on his face.
"659 Do you know, although this area is considered wild, but there are a large number of undead and alien beasts entrenched around it, and it is good that the human race does not come out, if it is settled in it with great fanfare, it will definitely be besieged by the surrounding alien races, and the only remaining sparks will be ruthlessly trampled out.
"I see, that's really not ...... to occupy"
659 nodded, acknowledging the twists and turns, and the video moved back to the map.
"The dungeon's hunters frequented these three places, the Bee Harbor, the Snake's Lair, and the Blood Cave."
The index finger tapped three times on the map, and Bai Donggu looked up at the Elder in front of him.
"These three places were rich villages and towns before the end of the world, but after the end of the world, they were occupied by all kinds of strange beasts, and in order to facilitate the division, they were renamed again."
"Among them, the bee harbor, as the name suggests, is naturally an area occupied by bees, among which there are mainly five types of mutated bees of the order Pintail, which is the most dangerous hunting area."
"The blood cave was originally a reservoir built by the mountain, in which mutant leeches were overflowing, and then it was used as a breeding nest by blood-sucking mosquitoes, although the environment is harsh, but fortunately, the creatures in it are not very aggressive and relatively safe."
"Judging from Zhang Ning's previous hunting, the hunting area he often goes to should be located in the middle of these two plots - the snake's nest ......"
