Chapter 14: The Hunt for the Giant Elephant 2

As soon as the sun came out the next day, everyone was already moving together, and everyone was full of energy and walked to the place where the giant elephant and the crocodile fought yesterday. Upon going to that place, it was discovered that the crocodile's carcass was surrounded by a bunch of wild dogs and vultures, and it seemed that it would not be long before the crocodile would be completely turned into a pile of bones. When the team members saw this situation, they couldn't approach the crocodile carcass, so they had to think hard about the direction in which the giant elephant left yesterday and look for it in the direction where the giant elephant left.

After a while, under the leadership of the regimental commander, he finally found the route for the giant elephant to leave, leaving traces of blood on the ground and on the grass, which were not completely dry and slippery to the touch. The entire team picked up speed and quickly followed the path the elephant had left. After several hours of hard work, I finally heard the wailing of the giant elephant, and the loud roar from time to time. The head of the regiment motioned for everyone to slow down and approach slowly, so as not to disturb the giant elephant, so everyone slowed down and approached slowly.

Finally saw the giant elephant, the blood on the trunk of the giant elephant has not completely dried, because of the smell of blood, the giant elephant's nose is surrounded by a lot of flies and other insects, the giant elephant is impatient, with its fan-like ears desperately fanned, but there is not much effect, the fly has not been fanned. There were several lions wandering around the giant elephant not far away, and the smell of giant elephant blood attracted these hungry lions, who were still watching and did not come forward to test the giant elephant.

The giant elephant squatted under a large tree, seemingly planning not to leave, the giant elephant will not leave this place until its trunk is completely healed, because there is no way to eat, more movement means more consumption, and only wait for the nose to heal before eating. The head of the regiment is estimating how long it will take for the elephant's trunk to get better, according to past experience, the resilience of the animals in this grassland is relatively good, and the elephant's trunk will be better in about 34 days.

After thinking for a while, the head of the regiment said: "We only have two or three days to hunt this giant elephant, because this giant elephant is injured, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow it will be weaker, so today is not the best time to do it, today is watching this giant elephant from a distance, and there are lions around, which shows that the lion also has thoughts about the giant elephant." It is estimated that the lions are also around, don't disturb the lions, if you do, you will have to face a lot of lions, I can't guarantee that under the attack of the lions, we can get out of the way. ”

Everyone listened to the head of the group and watched the situation of the giant elephant, and the lion finally couldn't hold it anymore and began to walk in the direction of the giant elephant. The giant elephant that was originally squatting under the tree found the lion and stood up with difficulty, and the lion did not dare to attack the giant elephant rashly, and several lions circled around the giant elephant. The giant elephant also kept making a low sound, and from time to time trampled towards the lion, but the lion was more flexible and was not touched by the giant elephant, but the giant elephant was caught by the lion several times because of its inflexibility, leaving only a few blood marks, and there was no fatal injury.

The lion and the giant elephant have been entangled for more than half an hour, and the members of the adventure team are watching from a short distance, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. Finally the lions got tired and couldn't fight with the giant elephants, and the lions slowly retreated and left. When the giant elephant could not see the lion, he immediately crouched down, panting for breath, as if he had exhausted all his strength. When the team saw this, they were eager to kill the giant elephant. But the regimental commander said: "Don't be impulsive, hundred-legged worm, die without stiffness, not to mention such a big elephant, even now, it is not something we can provoke." I'm not sure if the Elephant Lion will go back and call for more Lions, but in any case, I'd better wait until tomorrow to act. ”

Some people looked at this situation, it was a super good opportunity, and they didn't give up, and persuaded the head of the regiment to hunt the giant elephant today, but the head of the group still refused without hesitation. The giant elephant squatted under the big tree, panting all the time, and the regiment commander signaled the team members to retreat, and whispered: "Let's stay away from the giant elephant first, depending on the situation, the giant elephant will not run anymore, we need to discuss how to act tomorrow, follow me." Then the group walked away, and a few of them looked back at the giant elephant from time to time, looking very reluctant.

After half an hour, the captain finally stopped and said, "Let's rest in this place today and discuss tomorrow's plan of action." The team stopped, set up their tents, and started cooking food. When everything was done, the regiment commander and his team gathered around the fire and began to discuss plans for tomorrow.

The team members were still talking, talking nonsense, and they couldn't hear anything valuable, so the head of the regiment made a gesture and motioned for everyone to be quiet, and waited until everyone was quiet. The regimental commander began to speak: "You have also seen, the giant elephant is very weak now, there is no need for the previous plan, there is no need to set up a giant crossbow, we can shoot the giant elephant with a bow and arrow at a close distance, the arrow is coated with poison, as long as the wound or eye of the giant elephant is shot, we can quietly wait for the giant elephant to die, and then we will go to retrieve the ivory, and the task will be completed." ”

When the regiment commander finished speaking, everyone had nothing to say, and there was no better way than what the regiment commander said. Everyone dispersed one after another, and began to rest, looking forward to tomorrow. There were some clouds floating in the sky, blocking the starlight, and the night of the prairie looked gray, as if to indicate that there would be a bloody fight tomorrow.

Time passed quickly, it was already noon the next day, and the entire team was already in place, and came to the position where the giant elephant was resting and recuperating. As everyone thought, the giant elephant was still under the big tree, did not leave, the wound on the trunk of the giant elephant was no longer bleeding, it began to scar, the head of the regiment looked at the situation of the giant elephant and said: "I must act today, its wound is healing too quickly, the plan is like this, I will find a position where I can shoot the giant elephant, there is only one chance of an arrow, so I will shoot the arrow, you will interfere with the giant elephant, divert the attention of the giant elephant, create an opportunity for me, and ensure that one arrow can be shot." ”

The group members did not object, so they asked the head of the group where they should interfere with the giant elephant, the group leader carefully looked at the environment around the giant elephant, and said: "You are divided into two groups, respectively to the east and north of the giant elephant to interfere, I ambush in the northeast direction of the elephant, see the right time to shoot arrows, remember to pay attention to your own safety when interfering with the giant elephant, you can't get too close to the giant elephant, just interfere from afar." After the head of the regiment finished speaking, he pointed out a few positions for the team members to see, and the team members silently wrote them down.

Finally, the most exciting moment came, everyone was in position, and the regiment commander made a gesture at this time, signaling everyone to act. The two groups of people began to disturb the giant elephant, and the people on both sides threw something at the giant elephant from time to time at a distance of more than ten meters, such as stones, dead wood, or something. At first, the giant elephant did not react, but as the two squads threw more things, and from time to time they would hit the giant elephant's wounds, and the giant elephant began to stand up and let out a roar, and the people on both sides stepped back. Taking advantage of the fact that the team members were interfering with the giant elephant, the regiment commander had quietly come to the grass less than ten meters away from the giant elephant and ambushed him.

Without the interference of the two teams, the giant elephant began to squat down again. After the team members saw the regiment commander standing in his position, they waited for the regiment commander to send a signal to see how to act next. The head of the regiment made a gesture to continue to interfere, and the two teams began to slowly approach the giant elephant again, throwing various things on the giant elephant's body, although the giant elephant did not suffer any substantial damage, but so many things were thrown on the giant elephant's body, the giant elephant began to get angry, stood up and yelled loudly in the direction of the team member who threw the thing, and after the giant elephant roared, the team members retreated a little back.

In this way, the back and forth interference for half an hour, the team started throwing a lot of things, but as time went by, there was no big thing to throw, small stones and branches hit the body of the giant elephant, there was no effect at all, and now the giant elephant has subconsciously thought that the thrown thing does not hurt much, and the giant elephant will ignore it. The head of the regiment looked at the reaction of the giant elephant and knew that the time was ripe, and gestured to signal that everyone did not need to interfere anymore.

At this time, the regimental commander took out an arrow made of very sharp stainless steel, and the arrow was coated with highly poisonous poison, and then took out the bow, put the steel arrow on the bow, pulled out the amplitude of a full moon, and with a bang, the steel arrow flew out. The steel arrow spun in the air at high speed. All of the team held their breath as if time had stopped for a moment, and then the steel arrow was fired at the giant elephant. The giant elephant made an earth-shattering sound, and stood up quickly, and the team members saw that the steel arrow did not hit the eyes of the giant elephant, just a little distance, less than 5 centimeters, and directly pierced the ears of the giant elephant.

The giant elephant was super angry at this time, and he didn't know which line of defense the arrow was flying from, only that people from two directions were attacking him just now. One of Galen's team saw the angry giant elephant and was nervous for a moment, so he accidentally slipped and fell directly into the grass, and the grass shook. The elephant's eyes were so sharp, and when he saw the movement, he rushed towards Galen's team. When Galen saw the elephant galloping towards him, he yelled that it was not good, and then told everyone to scatter and flee.

The giant elephant roared angrily as he chased after the people of Galen's team, and Galen ran quickly and quickly shook off the giant elephant because he had experienced the trial of escape in the super fortress. The giant elephant was still chasing the team, and one of the team members at the back was in too much of a hurry and tripped over the weeds. The giant elephant chased directly after him, and was about to reach the front of the man, who immediately made a decision and rolled to the side, and the big foot of the giant elephant just stepped on the place where the person had fallen.

Galen saw that the last man was being overtaken, and after thinking about it, he stopped and went back to help the man, although Galen didn't know the man. Galen rushed back, took out the storm sword behind his back, and rushed towards the giant elephant, and the giant elephant trampled on the man for a while, the person was also more agile and was not stepped on, but his body was turned over in the grass and his body was cut a lot, and he was scarred, and he soon couldn't hold on.

Galen quickly came to the giant elephant's side, deftly avoided the corner where the giant elephant could see, approached the giant elephant in the dead end of the giant elephant's perspective, and raised the storm sword to slash at the giant elephant's hind legs. As soon as the sword went down, the elephant's leg was cut out of a hole twenty or thirty centimeters long and more than ten centimeters deep, and the giant elephant felt the severe pain, and directly shook its nose and hit the person who was chased by the giant elephant, and the person flew out directly. Galen couldn't care about that person so much, so the giant elephant quickly turned his head and saw Galen, Galen didn't like to fight, and quickly left the attack range of the giant elephant.

Galen kept changing positions as he ran, and from time to time he ran towards a place where there were trees, and the giant elephant kept chasing, hitting a lot of trees along the way. Fifteen minutes later, the giant elephant began to shake due to the onset of toxicity, and slowly sat down, and Galen breathed a sigh of relief.
