Chapter 329: Mangrove Escape
Hunters have become prey.
In a few tens of seconds, the xenohunter had cursed Masaru in his heart a few times.
However, no matter how many times he scolded, the most important thing was to escape from the hands of the enemy.
And all he could rely on was the spell-like abilities he had obtained through the xenomorphic potions of the aquatic species.
Running and climbing, the thighs of the xenomorph hunters burst out with great power.
His thighs and wide fins, which are stronger than those of other xenohunters, allow him to leap beyond those of other xenohunters.
With just one kick on the ground, the oily body wrapped in the water elemental jumped out of a distance of dozens of steps, and instantly overtook another hunter with a bow and crossbow.
"It's not a cramponon drake at all, it doesn't spit ice mist at all, and its claws don't have ice."
In the blink of an eye, the xenohunter had already made his judgment.
Masaru misjudged!
The xenohunter didn't know what the drake was riding, but he could tell that it didn't have the slightest feature on it that was suitable for swimming.
It's not an aquatic race, so even if you can swim, your swimming ability shouldn't be strong.
Judging by experience, the xenohunter immediately chose the most suitable way with the greatest hope of escape.
He didn't want to, and didn't dare to bet, who the dragonman would choose to let the drake cavalry chase.
The sparse mangroves rooted in the mud and water were within reach, and the webbed feet of the xenohunters once again exploded with their thighs, pressing tightly against the soft marsh mud covered with thin ice.
The wide webbed feet prevented him from falling into the dirt in the first place, and the water elemental that slammed down along the slippery scales of his legs as his vitality rolled, also gave him a stronger explosive power, pushing his body up in the soft swamp-
In the forward action of his body, he once again leaped a distance of dozens of paces, and pounced in the direction of the mangrove trees.
He chose the one that looked the widest and tallest.
The lush foliage obscures his body, and the wide trunk is a good springboard for him to jump quickly onto another tree.
His webbed feet landed on top of the tree as his body rubbed against the branches and leaves, and a few branches snapped and snapped.
Very good!
The xenohunter shouted in his heart, and the hope of a successful escape made him recede the horror of his team's fellow killers a lot.
But he didn't have any intention of staying, as his body sank, as an auxiliary webbed palm propped up on the tree, he pressed down hard, and the moment his body was raised, his thighs burst out with strong strength again.
Again, his body rubbed against the branches of the leaves and leaped into the air.
It was also at this moment that he casually looked down.
At this moment, from a bird's-eye perspective, he saw what was beneath the water's surface.
One after another, black shadows with huge bodies lurked underwater, lurking under the thin surface of ice.
In an instant, his heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, and his life force seemed to stop flowing.
The fear that had subsided resurfaced, and the idea of escaping after the fourth jump disappeared in an instant.
The moment his body passed through the branches and leaves again, he adjusted his direction slightly, picked another largest mangrove, exploded with strength, and bounced.
With the trajectory of the life force, the water element that surrounds the circulation of the body cleans up the debris that hangs on the surface of the body again, removing the leaves, branches and soil that stick to the surface of the body.
And then......
As his body fell, he suddenly saw a pair of eyes open on the thick body of the big tree that was half-submerged in the water.
The next moment, a huge mouth full of fangs opened openly.
"Nope!
! ”
In the air, the xenomorph hunter's desire to survive exploded, and he tried to deflect the direction in every possible way, but in the huge mouth, a gale broke out.
A whirlpool-like vortex of air constricts the xenohunter's body to the center and swallows it into its mouth at a faster rate.
At the moment when the giant mouth closed and a strong pain came from the body, the xenohunter seemed to see that the position of the monster's throat seemed to have spiral-like lines.
It's just that he never had a chance to confirm it anymore.
.......
The screams from the direction of the mangroves made the heart of another xenohunter rushing towards the mangroves shrink.
Without the slightest hesitation, he turned his way and weaved between the sparse mangroves along the edge of the swampy tidal flats, avoiding the dense mangroves.
His webbed feet are not wide, and his thighs are not unusually thick and unusually thick, making him not suitable for jumping.
However, the skin-like scales, which can be seen even when running on land, are close to the surface of the body, giving him a streamlined silhouette that looks quite beautiful.
However, at this time, he did not have the heart to disguise himself as a woman to deceive and deceive passing adventurers and merchants, all he wanted to do was to escape.
From his point of view, the thin surface of ice undoubtedly blocked his escape, forcing him to run for his life.
However, the xenohunter did not hear any footsteps chasing behind him, and the sound of the dragon beast's roar and roar came from far behind.
Such a situation can't help but make him happy.
And the most exciting thing for the xenohunter is that as he walks briskly, the swamp ice becomes thinner and more fragmented.
He had a chance to enter the water.
However, he didn't jump into it right away.
His eyes swept over the water, and the long toe on the outermost part of his webbed foot poked into the water from time to time.
The sensitive, soft-skinned scales that can sense the movement of the water element, and the movement of the water element, are all in the distance, in the direction of the previous swamp or deeper mangroves.
The things that lurked under the water gathered in the direction of the screaming sound that had come from before.
At this moment, he couldn't help but congratulate his decision, and secretly thanked his companion who died in the scream without knowing what had happened.
After making sure that there was no water elemental movement in the water nearby, he jumped forward, crossed a graceful curve, and threw himself into the water.
With their hands and legs together, their webbed feet and fins on their calves spreading, xenohunters swinging their bodies nimbly, swimming through the water at speeds several times faster than on land.
Underwater vision isn't great, but, with keen perception, xenohunters are able to accurately avoid the roots of any mangrove tree inserted into the dirt.
Swim to the sea and turn back to the south, and he will be able to escape!
Escaping death brings more pleasure than ever.
Underwater, the xenohunter's face even showed an irrepressible smile.
However, at this time, when he was about to bypass the dense and continuous tree roots, suddenly, a tree root that was almost exactly the same as the root of a mangrove tree suddenly moved.
A huge mouth full of sharp teeth bit at him as the roots cracked, and when he tried to dodge, the roots of the trees that fell to the surface of the water like ordinary roots, the slightly bulging nodules, burst open in an instant.
As the gale spurted upward, it pierced into the water like a sharp spear.
When the sharp pain from the abrasion hit his lower back, his body hit the xenomorph hunter at the root of the tree, and his dodge movement was also blocked.
At this moment, he clearly saw what kind of speech the attacking behemoth had.
