Chapter 26: Antarctic Meteorites (4)
By the time they ran to that Xiaoice mountain, they were already exhausted and out of breath. Fusco finds a shallow pit at the foot of the iceberg and makes everyone jump into it, and then begins collecting nearby stones and ice with Brende, with Dossi left behind to take care of Vico and Lannie. Vico opened his backpack, pulled out a long rubber belt, and staggered to his feet to observe the Antarctic skua. Lannieu's wrist was already bandaged, and the pain was much less, seeing Vico's appearance, she hugged Dosie and stared nervously at the sky, "Vico, what should we do now?" Vico pondered, "We get together, and then we make slingshots out of rubber belts and hit them with stones." At this time, Brende and Fusco came to them with the stones and ice they had collected, and they made a simple barrier, and Brende also placed the non-powered ski in front of the barrier.
"Brende, Fosco, you hold on to the two ends of the rubber belt, stand apart, and I'll shoot the stones." Vico commanded. Brende and Fusco instantly understood, "Oh! I see! You're there, Vico! Brende picked up one end of the rubber belt and stood parallel to Fusco. It's a game they play a lot, but in the past they used snowball balls for snowball fights, but this time they used hard stones.
As the Antarctic skuas got closer, they could clearly hear the rapid and ferocious call. Dossie nervously hugged Lanni, who hugged her back, trying her best to comfort her. Dossey trembled with fear.
Skuas hovered over the iceberg, their dark eyes glinting fiercely. Suddenly, an Antarctic skua swooped down and grabbed fiercely in their direction. Lanny screamed and closed her eyes, and heard Vico shouting, "Release!" With a whoosh, a stone shot like an arrow at the Antarctic skua. The stone made a graceful arc through the air. It's a pity that the Antarctic skua saw the flying black stone, and hurriedly dodged, but it was still a little late, the stone hit the wings of the Antarctic skua, it let out a terrible wail, the wings trembled violently, dropped a few black feathers, and flew into the sky in embarrassment.
"Good!" Brende and Fusco cheered in unison, and they looked at Vico excitedly, their eyes shining with admiration. Vico smiled confidently, knowing that their makeshift weapons were working.
However, the Antarctic skuas behind were not content to be defeated, and they circled in the air, letting out bursts of angry screams. Vico clutched the rubber belt in his hand tightly, calmly observing their movements, preparing for the next attack of the Antarctic Skua Gull.
Vico stared at the Antarctic skua hovering in the air and whispered, "Fosco, Brand, are you ready?" The two men replied in unison, "Ready!" "Their voices are firm and powerful, full of confidence." Good! Wait until they fly low before fighting! I don't believe I can't hit them. Vico took a deep breath and clutched the rubber belt in his hand.
The Antarctic skua circled several times, and suddenly one in front and one in the back, swooping towards them in a column. "Vico, aim for them, hit!" Fusco shouted.
"Whoosh!" The stone shot out like an arrow again, hitting the first Antarctic skua with unmistakable accuracy, and it screamed, its wings hung limply, and it fell to the ice.
The others saw the same thing, flying left and right, who knew that they circled a few times, and then rushed over in unison. The stones were launched one by one, but the Antarctic skuas learned to be clever and deftly dodged.
"Brende, you will shoot instead, you have a lot of strength, shoot farther!" Vico said to Brende. Brende responded with a yes, and swapped places with Vicco. Brende yelled, pulled the rubber belt in his hand to the longest, and then jerked it go. The hard ice roared into the sky, and due to the reflection of the white ice, under the cover of the white ice cap, an Antarctic skua was in the middle, and the poor Antarctic skua let out a scream and stumbled to the ground.
At this moment, the Antarctic skua was completely defeated, and they flew away in panic and no longer dared to approach. But the Antarctic skuas love nothing more than to stalk, hiding in the distant sky and circling to watch them, and if they have the chance, they will attack again.
Lannieu looked at the downed Antarctic skua and was momentarily excited, "Brende, you are awesome!" Brende smiled and scratched his head, "Hey, it just so happened!" It just so happened! At this time, Vico said: "Although these skuas dare not attack now, this situation is still very dangerous, and we have to find a way to escape." Fosco looked at the trembling Dossie and said helplessly, "How can you escape!" As long as we get out, those guys will definitely chase after us again, and then it will be dangerous. ”
