Chapter 43 - Chapter 43 Thrilling moments

At least three or four cavalrymen led small groups of Deinonychus along the ditch, and their conversations were heard clearly.

Everyone's nerves tensed up. These monsters weren't beasts, they were intelligent. They searched very carefully, following the traces all the way down. They carefully checked every section of the ditch.

The area where the terrorists were hiding was getting closer and closer. According to the meticulous search, it was impossible to hide. Everyone was already prepared to suddenly attack. Everyone had no bottom line in their hearts. These opponents were completely different from the ones they had encountered before. They were intelligent creatures!

If someone placed a wolf and a werewolf in front of them, and under the circumstances that their combat power was similar, they would choose one as their opponent. Most people would prefer the former. Although beasts were terrifying, they were still within the scope of cognition. Even if they were afraid, they could barely accept it. Werewolves are things outside the scope of cognition. People always have an innate fear of unknown things.

The logic was the same. They would rather deal with a Deinonychus than deal with a Dinosaur.

"Don't make a sound, don't breathe…"

Zhang Mu said in an inaudible voice.

Leng Yun hurriedly held her breath, but there was a rustling sound in her ears.

Strange?

What was that noise?

Just as Leng Yun had a question, she looked up and her beautiful eyes immediately widened. She saw something was opening up the soil covered with grass roots. A large amount of wet soil fell down, and two long black and white tentacles stretched out from it. They were at least ten centimeters long and were alternately red and white.

A ferocious head emerged from the soil. It was as red as blood. Its chewing mouthparts were chewing something non-stop. A pair of feet slowly emerged from the soil…a giant centipede!

It was a giant centipede as thick as three fingers. It had at least 200 pairs of legs, a blood-red head, long tentacles, and a dark red body.

Du Rongrong wanted to scream when she saw it.

Zhang Mu quickly covered her head with his left hand. Du Rongrong's eyes were wide open, and her face was almost green with fear. Even Fatty and Sun Bing's eyes were wide open, let alone him, and cold sweat broke out on their cheeks. Damn, is it really just a centipede?

Deinonychus 'footsteps were getting closer.

The centipede slowly crawled out of the soil above her head. Its two long tentacles swayed gently. It was located directly above Leng Yun. From Leng Yun's angle, the centipede's ferocious and disgusting mouth could be seen clearly. The fangs with poison glands were black and kept chewing back and forth. More than 200 pairs of feet crawled, constantly making rustling sounds.

Leng Yun was a bit obsessed with cleanliness. She hated insects and ants the most. Being in close contact with a huge centipede was almost enough to make her heart break! No words could describe Leng Yun's feelings. She wanted to escape but couldn't. She wanted to scream but didn't dare to. She could only shut her mouth tightly, her face full of fear, her watery eyes full of tears.

The centipede was crawling. Its long tentacles approached and finally touched Leng Yun's delicate jade-like cheeks. Leng Yun was so frightened that her whole body trembled. The centipede was obviously alarmed. It immediately stopped moving forward and retracted. Then, it suddenly opened its jaws and rushed forward, trying to pounce on Leng Yun's face and bite it.

Leng Yun wasn't a simple person. She could endure this kind of situation. She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes in despair.

However, the expected feeling did not arrive.

Leng Yun opened her eyes trembling. Suddenly, she realized that a hand had reached out from the side and blocked her face. The big centipede that had attacked Leng Yun bit on the back of that hand and injected a large amount of venom. The green color quickly spread throughout the entire hand.

The owner of this hand was Zhang Mu.

Leng Yun was stunned. Two lines of tears fell down like pearls.

Zhang Mu's forehead was covered in sweat, but he didn't seem to feel anything. He didn't even frown, as if the bite wasn't on his hand. He grabbed the centipede in his hand and pinched it hard. The centipede's head was broken, and his hand was filled with disgusting and sticky pus.

Leng Yun didn't say a word. Tears fell silently. She carefully raised her left hand. A faint white light emitted from her palm. She was slowly healing her wounds and cleaning up the toxins that had entered her body. Fortunately,[Healing Hand] was a DD-level skill. Its healing ability was very strong and it had the effect of removing toxins.

At this moment, a terrifying murmur sounded from above.

The Dreadmen rode on the Deinonychus and had already reached the top of the hiding place. One of the Dreadmen jumped to the other side of the ditch and raised his iron spear to stab down. The spear pierced through the grass and soil, and half of the sharp spear almost passed Zhang Mu's nose. Zhang Mu frowned slightly, but his expression did not change. Fatty was shocked.

Damn it!

He really couldn't hide anymore!

They could only fight!

Fatty had had enough. He revealed a fierce look and his eyes were filled with ferocity. He gripped his greatsword tightly and was about to rush out.

Zhang Mu grabbed his wrist and gave him a look to calm him down.

Fatty stayed obediently.

The terrorist pulled out his iron spear and muttered something. They seemed to have noticed something strange and were about to drill in to check it out. Suddenly, a sound came from not far away. Everyone was shocked. They immediately looked over and saw a pitch-black Deinonychus crawling out of the grass. Seeing this, it roared at it twice.

When the black Deinonychus saw the Dreadful Cavalry, it was stunned for a moment. Then, it let out a low roar and turned around to hide in the grass.

The Dreadman Cavalry didn't pay much attention to it. They thought it was just an ordinary wild Deinonychus. Deinonychus was nearby, which meant that the intruders had not passed through. Besides, some of those people were injured. If you walked through here, there should be blood on the ground. The Dreadful Cavalry cried out twice as he commanded his mount and led a group of Deinonychus to search other places.

The footsteps quickly left, and the terrifying person naturally didn't know that Black Claw was Zhang Mu's battle beast. As for the bloodstains along the way, Black Claw had already cleaned them up.

Chen Ling was so scared that her legs were trembling a little. Because she had been holding her breath for a long time, her cheeks had turned red. She still did not dare to vent her anger. Her voice trembled as she asked," Did... did they... leave?" In just a few minutes, she had been in danger several times. She was so scared that she almost peed her pants.

Zhang Mu made a hush gesture, and Black Claw came out from the grass. He peeked out and walked around the ditch. Then, he let out two cries.

"We can leave now. We need to leave immediately."

Fear people have extremely high intelligence. Although they leave this place temporarily, they may not have gone far. Perhaps they are just wandering nearby. The team had to evacuate the danger zone as soon as possible, otherwise, if they were caught, the consequences would be unimaginable. The others didn't understand how many terrifying people were in the station, but Zhang Mu knew very well. There didn't seem to be many of them chasing after them, but if they were to fight with them in a hot-headed manner, they would definitely end up being dismembered by knives.

Zhang Muya whispered,"Be careful. Don't make any noise." He pushed aside the weeds in front of him with both hands and crawled out of the ditch. He gently patted the mud on his body. He held the axe in his left hand and the sword in his right hand. He observed his surroundings vigilantly. The weeds nearby were growing vigorously, completely obscuring his vision. Deinonychus and Dinosaurs had better vision and hearing than humans, but their sense of smell was very ordinary. As long as they were not seen by them and did not make too much noise, they would not be found.

Leng Yun anxiously said,"Wood, your hand!"

"My hand is fine. The centipede is big but not too poisonous. After treatment, the poison is basically gone." Zhang Mu waved his hand, indicating for the others to come out." There's no time. Let's go!"

Everyone walked out of the ditch one after another.

Zhang Mu covered his right arm and said," There's some poison left in my right hand that hasn't been cleaned up yet. I'm already numb and can't exert any strength. Who will lead the way?"

The dog stood up and said,"Let me do it!"

He had seen everything that had happened just now. Zhang Mu was a man who would not change his expression when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. Bereavement dog early mixed underworld, special respect for such ruthless people.

Ten people were moving through the grass at high speed.

About five minutes walk.

The lost dog moved forward quickly, and the others followed closely behind. The ten-person team was in the grass like a fish swimming in the water. There was a small hole in front of him. Sanggou didn't think too much and walked over.

Zhang Mu's vision was blocked behind him. When he saw the empty space, Sanggou had already walked over. He immediately reminded him," Don't leave the empty space. Go around!"

Too late!

The dog stomped on the ground.

Something unexpected happened.

Boom!

There was a loud bang.

The soil on the ground was suddenly lifted, and a trap was activated, clamping down hard on the lost dog.

Mourning Dog spat out a mouthful of blood and growled," Damn it, this is…" He tried to pull the beast clamp with both hands. Even with the strength of a fighter, he could not pull it open. The Beast Trap was made from sharp bones and was extremely huge. It almost broke the waist of the Lost Dog, reducing its HP from 100% to less than 30%.

A series of sharp screams rang out from the surrounding grass, and seven or eight bone spears shot over at an astonishing speed. Lei Ming and Sun Bing used their shields to block a few bone spears. Some of the bone spears passed by the two of them. One of them hit Fatty, and the other was about to hit Scorpion, but it was dodged sideways and disappeared into the dense grass.

"This is a trap set by the terrorists!" Zhang Mu was shocked and quickly shouted,"Leave immediately!"

Everyone hurriedly prepared to evacuate.

Lost Dog was trapped in the animal trap and could not move at this moment.

Du Rongrong cried out,"Help Uncle Dog!"

The Deinonychus 'cry could be heard not far away. The grass kept turning, and something was approaching. The Dreadful Cavalry must have heard the sound and was rushing over.

Zhang Mu and Lei Ming rushed over to help the lost dog get rid of the animal clamp. The lost dog was seriously injured, and its internal organs were left out. Blood spilled all over the ground. Lin Caiyan used the Suture and Hemostasis techniques to control his injuries, while Leng Yun used the Healing Hand to help him recover.

The dog's ugly face twitched a little, and a hoarse voice came from the depths of his throat: "Thank you!"

"Stop talking, it's too late!" Zhang Mu felt that the voice was getting closer and closer. He carried the mourning dog and walked forward." Let's go first!"

He threw a scroll over, and the scroll emitted light. A Skeleton Captain was summoned. Following this summoning, the scroll spontaneously ignited and turned into ashes. Du Rongrong also summoned the Death Mantis. The two monsters stayed where they were while the others immediately retreated. Sun Bing led the way with his shield and scorpion, Zhang Mu walked behind with his injured dog, Leng Yun pulled Du Rongrong, Lin Caiyan, and Chen Ling in the middle, Lei Ming and Fatty were responsible for bringing up the rear.

Black Claw was sent to scout ahead so that he could be prepared in advance if he encountered danger.

"Oh!"

Out of the thicket sprang three horsemen, slender iron spears in their hands.

The Skeleton Captain charged forward and blocked one of them. He then used Tornado Slash to deal a significant amount of damage to the Dreadman Cavalry. The Death Mantis slashed out two air blades in succession, blocking the other two terrifying cavalrymen. At this moment, six or seven Deinonychus charged out from behind.

Too many. A Skeleton Captain and a Death Mantis were far from enough!

Everyone heard the sounds of fighting coming from behind and couldn't help but quicken their pace.

Captain Skeleton and Death Mantis couldn't drag on for long!
