Chapter 35: Obstructions are Everywhere

"Be careful - don't let me save you again." Cao Nian said to Zhang Yang while jumping in the air. Although his tone seemed a little cold, he had no intention of blame.

After all, Zhang Yang's positioning is biased towards bulky warriors rather than agile assassins. You cannot ask him to resist and beating, and also be flexible and agile. This is really too harsh. What's more, Zhang Yang is not as powerful as Cao Nian's mental power. When facing danger, his reaction speed cannot be compared with Cao Nian.

However, this does not mean that Zhang Yang is not strong.

On the contrary, if placed on the battlefield, with Zhang Yang's ability, he would definitely be the kind of general who rode a horse and charged into battle. However, now he has no mount under his crotch, and he can only walk in the desert with his legs, and he will inevitably be subject to the siege of the enemy.

Fortunately - Xu Nuo and Fatty are both sharpshooters with perfect bullets.

Every time Cao Nian and Zhang Yang were in danger, the two people who were covering from a distance were able to help them in time.

Xu Nuo's figure is smart and his marksmanship is elegant. Her psychological quality is amazing. Even if she is approached by a scorpion, she is not panicked at all. She never even said a word or asked anyone for help. This extraordinary calmness made Cao Nian feel a little more curious about her life experience that she has never wanted to mention.

The fat man's marksmanship is almost as steady as his tonnage.

Barrett had a huge recoil, but he was lying at the top of the dune, without trembling at all. Every time he pulled the trigger, the fat man could end the life of a monster.

At first, the scorpions were attracted by Zhang Yang and Cao Nian, and they all raised their pincers to face each other. A large group of scorpions made the yellow sand roll.

Cao Nian and Zhang Yang were in a mess, as if they were trapped in the mud, and they did not dare to use their full strength at all, so they could only dodge. This made the two quite helpless, because except for the beginning, they had some gains, they were busy running around later, and occasionally making moves to protect themselves. The best defense is offense, which is not applicable at all times, especially when there is no protagonist's halo.

However, as time went by, the scorpions gradually discovered that their companions were falling down one after another. Only then did they realize that the real enemy was not the two lively humans in front of them, but a guy hiding in the dark - yes, the fat man on the dune.

Unfortunately, their wisdom is limited, and when they find something is not good, they are already in desperate situations.

Looking at the few giant scorpions around me.

Zhang Yang and Cao Nian looked at each other tacitly and smiled at each other.

Now, it's finally time for them to fight back.

Accompanied by a loud shout and a roar that was not like a human could make, the two people who had been fleeing suddenly turned around and rushed towards the group of scorpions.

Looking at the suddenly crazy "prey", the scorpions' black compound eyes were full of fear. They were all panicked and quickly retreated, forcing more than ten meters by Cao Nian and Zhang Yang.

In the end, the continuous gunfire brought the end to the battle.

Cao Nian and Zhang Yang stopped with lingering fear, and only after confirming that there were no remaining enemies around him, they dared to take a breath.

Looking at the large black scorpion of scorpions around them and the large and small bullet holes on their bodies, the power of thermal weapons was fully revealed in this battle. As the veterans said, technological weapons occupied a very important position for a long time in the early stage. Sniper rifles, submachine guns, and even more powerful laser weapons, electromagnetic cannons, and plasma cannons are much more useful than weapons such as swords when dealing with many monsters. Some squads were even equipped with thermal weapons, one person and one heavy machine gun, and when they encountered monsters, they opened fire. In just a few minutes of shooting, a team could pour out tens of thousands of bullets, and ordinary enemies were almost instantly killed into scum.

However, most of these teams cannot last long. Because their attack methods are too single, they will have a way out once they encounter monsters that can ignore bullets.

Therefore, in order to make the team's reasonable configuration, Cao Nian did not choose to use thermal weapons like Fatty and Xu Nuo. Relying on his ability to awaken and the courage of no one else, Cao Nian resolutely chose a path that was much more dangerous than the former. Of course, Zhang Yang was the same.

However, at this period, his and Zhang Yang's abilities are still growing. If he wants to make a name for himself, it will take time and accumulating a lot of reward points.

When Cao Nian thought of this, he couldn't help but feel that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.

Sure enough, the captain and other things were not easy to behave. He inserted the Tang sword in his hand back into the sheath and murmured to himself.

After cleaning the battlefield, Zhang Yang said proudly: "Brother Cao, our current combat power is the peak of the ninth-level team! We solved so many monsters in less than ten minutes - I have to say that Fat Brother's gun is really powerful. Look at these wounds, it's shocking!"

Ordinary novice teams may not have the combat power of theirs after two or three trials. After all, not all squads have such luxurious configurations as theirs - an awakened man, a warrior with orc blood, and two gun masters. In terms of overall strength, they are indeed the best among the ninth-level teams now. However, their experience and number of people seem to be a little insufficient.

As the captain, Cao Nian has a slightly different perspective from Zhang Yang, or is not as optimistic as Zhang Yang: "Maybe - it would be great if we could have one or two more reliable people in our team. Four people, this team is really a little small."

Zhang Yang said: "That's true. After all, when you brush the dungeons in the game, there were more than a dozen or twenty people carrying weapons together. It would be a bit difficult for the four of us to do something big."

No. 21 had already loaded his weapons and walked down from the dunes: "The source should be replenishing newbies to our team in the near future."

Xu Nuo said: "Do you think there is such a possibility - we will be added to other teams?"

When Zhang Yang heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied: "Being recruited by another team? I don't do such a thing! I feel aggrieved no matter how I think about it!"

Cao Nianze said: "This is very likely. After all, our number is too small. Do you still remember Li Xiao and Zhang Chuyi? They were replenished in other teams just because all their teammates were gone. Now we still have four people. If one or two are missing, I'm afraid-"

Speaking of this, Cao Nian suddenly felt a little stupid, why did he become so pessimistic?

The fat man said: "It's useless to say these things now. If anyone really dies, he will only be considered unlucky."

Zhang Yang said angrily: "I know you can't spit out ivory in your mouth, Fatty - but if you lose it, I will be sad."

The fat man snorted without comment.

Zhang Yang said: "If Fat Brother, you suddenly disappear - I can take over your position, hehe, sniper, you can collect people from one kilometer away. This day is much better than when I go in and out of the monster pile."

The fat man said, "If you can use a sniper rifle, I don't mind you taking over my position."

Zhang Yang said: "What's the difficulty? Isn't it just aiming and then shooting?"

After hearing this, Xu Nuo and No. 21 showed a smile that an old man only had when he saw a newbie.

Cao Nian said: "If it is really that simple - the so-called snipers on the earth should be covered and returned home. You kid, just a layman, don't talk."

Zhang Yang said, "Brother Cao, aren't you also a layman?"

Cao Nian was speechless.

Xu Nuo smiled and said, "Since the scorpion has been solved, should we set off too - wait, don't you think - the ground is shaking?"

A look of horror appeared on Xu Nuo's fair face. She subconsciously made a gesture of silence at Zhang Yang, and then her body stiffened and did not move at all, maintaining a high degree of vigilance against external changes in this way.

Flash?!

After hearing Xu Nuo's words, Cao Nian and others suddenly noticed something strange.

Sure enough, the yellow sand on the ground was trembling. When they looked down, they realized that the yellow sand was trembling, just like the balls on the lathe.

This is an unusual vibration.

Although the yellow sand is soft and flowing all the time, even if a gust of wind blows away, it can sweep away a dune. However, the vibration like the one in front of you is still unprecedented, just like a pot of thick soup is bubbled, and white viscous substances are spinning on the surface and then spreading.

The yellow sand underground suddenly began to surge upwards wildly.

It seemed like a gulp of spring water was about to spew out from the ground, but unfortunately it was a gulp of spring full of sand.

"Damn it, there's a big guy below-"

Cao Nian instantly realized the seriousness of the matter, grabbed Xu Nuo beside him and started running away.

The fat man and Zhang Yang also rolled and crawled, and quickly dispersed.

Less than half a minute after the four of them left where they were standing, the trachoma on the ground suddenly exploded. A huge creature broke through the sand, and its dark and huge figure flew into the air, like a whale shark jumping from the sea.

Its huge body covering the sky and the sun casts a shadow from above, and this terrifying body made Zhang Yang scream directly.

My God - so big!

This guy is indeed very big! Especially at such a close distance, looking up from below. This monster is simply a meteorite that has been smashed from the sky! Its pair of pliers is no different from the sword of Damocles, and it may take the lives of a tiny human being at any time!

This is a scorpion with a length of more than eight meters and is twice as big as the monster just now. If it is expected, it should be the king of the scorpion group. After all, in the community of wild beasts and monsters, the larger the body, the stronger the strength and the higher the status. This is also vividly reflected in human society, but for humans, the so-called "strength" refers not only to brute force. Money, status, power and various connections. Humans are too complex, so the word "strength" refers to very vague.

This thing, which was as dark as a meteorite outside the sky, rushed towards Zhang Yang and Fatty. This momentum was like a heavy truck crushing them with all its might, and it was unstoppable. Neither Zhang Yang nor Fatty could compete with it. After all, no matter whether it was five times or six times that of ordinary people, in front of the truck, it was a mantis arm that was a car.

Unless——Zhang Yang thought in his heart, unless I can become the green-skinned monster with infinite power, Hulk.

The fat man reacted very quickly and jumped up directly, pulling Zhang Yang, who was slightly stunned, rolling down the hillside.

The two of them curled up, like two tires, one big and one small, rolling from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain, with sand and dust rolling. After eating unknown amounts of sand, they reached the bottom of the dune and stopped.

Halfway through the mountain, a huge monster was waving its huge pliers with great might and roaring to the sky. Its scream was very strange, like a bullfrog sang in a silence. However, the sound was unpleasant, but it could make people unable to help but cover their ears.

Zhang Yang stood up, looked at the giant, and cursed angrily: "Damn, why are you so unlucky? If you beat the young, you will be old! If you bully us, don't have any helpers, right?"

The fat man ignored his words and ran away. Because the giant scorpion on the mountainside actually locked the two of them like a tracking missile, and let Cao Nianhao promise not to care, he instead rushed to them who were farther away.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang didn't care about cursing, so he quickly followed the fat man: "Are we targeted? Damn it, it must be Fat man that you just killed its descendants and were only thinking about it. I have to follow you to suffer."

The fat man panted while running, "Can you hold it back for a while?"

Zhang Yang simply said: "No."

The fat man was stunned and then cursed: "Are you still a man? You said you can't before you tried it?"

Zhang Yang said aggrievedly: "Does this still need to be tried? I don't dare to take risks with my life!"

The fat man's face looked very ugly.

What Zhang Yang said is indeed reasonable. Fighting against such a giant beast without the strength and physical fitness of Wen Guangtou would be like seeking death. If Zhang Yang could be more agile, he would be able to deal with this monster for a while, but he was Zhang Yang, not Cao Nian or Xu Nuan.

Damn it—

The fat man complained.

His weapons are still in a box, and now they have to be taken out and assembled, which is not an easy task.

Although the giant scorpion is huge, its speed is not slow. Eight black claws like steel spears are moving alternately on the ground, causing it to rush around like a crazy cow.

The fat man knew the situation was critical, so he could only say: "Escape separately!"

Zhang Yang responded, and immediately ran to the other side.

The fat man now had only one luxury in his heart, that is, the scorpion headed towards Zhang Yang.

It’s not that he is afraid of death and wants to sacrifice Zhang Yang to protect himself, but now that he is obviously the only one who can defeat this monster is Barrett in his hands and the Tang sword in Cao Nian’s hands.

If this giant scorpion chases Zhang Yang, then the fat man will have enough time to take out his weapons.

And something unexpected happened, and the giant scorpion seemed to have thought of going with the fat man.

It watched the two people in front of it scattered and fled, without pausing at all, and chased the fat man directly.

Feel the murderous aura behind you and the vibration of the hills.

The fat man finally panicked.

If this is caught up, it will be doomed.

Is he too unlucky, or is it that the Scorpion King has noticed himself - after all, he is the guy with the largest number of offspring to kill it. If it is the former reason, it can only be said that he has this disaster in his destiny, but if it is the latter, it means that the wisdom of the Scorpion cannot be underestimated.
