Chapter 12 Dark Shadow in the Lake
Yang Li signaled everyone to rest here briefly, build a second temporary camp, and establish contact with the first temporary camp.
The water source is a target that needs to be surveyed, so the collection and testing work began soon.
"Wait until next time when we come again, let the engineers bring tree-cutting tools, and then build a road directly from our original camp to here."
Yang Li came out from the communicator at this time He said: "When the time comes, drive the off-road vehicle all the way here to save yourself the trouble of taking the No. 11 bus."
Everyone responded in agreement.
Chen Lin wore protective clothing and other equipment and walked in the forest for almost an hour. At this time, he was somewhat tired.
Even though you are wearing an exoskeleton, this thing can only reduce wear and tear, but it does not mean that you can't exert any strength.
At this time, he was sitting on a rock, trying to regain his strength as much as possible.
Chen Lin kept looking at the water not far away. The scenery of the sparkling lake was quite good. He noticed that there was a soldier not far away using a bottle to fill water, but the next second he saw this The soldier was dragged directly into the lake by something in the water at an extremely fast speed!
Wow!
The splashing sound is not loud, and it can even be said that it is insignificant to everyone wearing protective clothing.
The guy who collected lake water samples was alone, and his speed was so fast that others didn’t even notice!
Chen Lin immediately reported to the communicator, and Yang Li immediately stood up and ran towards the lake.
He indeed saw a huge shadow in the lake, and the camouflage protective clothing was looming in the water!
"Damn it!"
Yang Li immediately said angrily through the communicator: "What are so many people doing? Who asked him to go to the lake alone to collect lake water samples!?"
Several people in charge of such projects were a little speechless for a while. They were responsible for collecting different things. When the accident happened just now, they were all on the shore collecting vegetation next to the lake.
As Yang Li spoke, he quickly began to take off his protective clothing. Someone beside him did the same action with him. Another person took out a foldable hovercraft and used the inflatable device like crazy. Extended hull.
In just a few dozen seconds, Yang Li and two soldiers were already on the hovercraft, fully armed, and rushed towards the camouflage protective clothing that was being dragged farther and farther in the water!
The three people had all taken off their protective clothing and didn't even wear gas masks.
Chen Lin couldn't see clearly the scene on the water in the distance from where he was standing. The reflected light made him squint his eyes.
But soon he heard an exclamation coming from the communicator.
Soon everyone on the shore shouted and began to pull wildly on the ropes connected to the hovercraft in the distance.
The hovercraft was quickly pulled closer to the shore.
Only then did Chen Lin see clearly that there were four people on the hovercraft at this time.
Yang Li was soaked all over and dragged a soldier covered in blood directly to the shore. The other two men fired wildly at the water not far away.
As the sound of firearms sounded, Chen Lin quickly noticed something rolling under the water and attacking the hovercraft!
A huge black shadow suddenly appeared on the water, and the next second the black shadow rushed out of the water.
It was a huge python of incalculable size!
Everyone on the shore was shocked by the sudden appearance of the giant python. This thing was probably about the same size as the giant python in Python Disaster!
The giant python is gray-white all over, with huge tentacles on its head. From Chen Lin's point of view, it is at least nearly one meter in diameter!
The giant python suddenly jumped out of its upper body and wanted to directly attack Yang Li who was running ashore.
But a hissing sound of exhaust gas quickly came from the crowd on the shore.
Bazooka!
Immediately afterwards, Chen Lin saw a rocket launcher suddenly shoot into the giant python, instantly blasting through half of the giant python's body!
A soldier rushed down directly, first helping Yang Li and the two following soldiers directly to the shore, and then he pulled the trigger in his hand towards the giant python.
Fire dragon-like flames instantly spurted out from the muzzle of his gun! The giant python was burned by the flames, roaring and making strange screams that made the eardrums of everyone on the shore hurt.
But the sound only lasted for a few seconds and ended because the giant python couldn't withstand the thousands of degrees of heat from the flamethrower!
It tried to retreat into the lake, but it was too late. The flamethrower burned the upper body of the giant python in just an instant, and the continuous burning made it emit the aroma of barbecue.
Soldiers holding flamethrowers stepped forward to confirm that the fallen python was dead before turning around and going ashore.
At this time, the soldiers rescued by their captain had already taken off their protective clothing.
"Penetrating injury to the abdomen, a bit of blood loss, but fortunately it is not fatal."
The medical soldiers accompanying the team quickly checked the guy's wound, opened his eyelids and took a look At a glance, I noticed that the eyeballs had turned dark red.
"It seems he was poisoned... I tried to give him an injection of antidote!"
Yang Li was sitting aside panting at this time. He couldn't help the rescuers here, so he simply stood up and squeezed Out of the crowd.
Chen Lin noticed that Yang Li looked a little exhausted. Recalling the way this fierce man rushed to save people just now, he really admired him.
"This python is so big, how did you save it from the snake's mouth?"
Yang Li waved his hand, and then he felt a little frightened when he thought about it: "This bitch didn't People who use their own tentacles use their mouths.”
"I jumped down and cut off its tentacles with a knife. I dragged the person onto the boat with the help of two people on the boat."
"Fierce!"
Chen Lin moved towards Yang Li Thumbs up, Yang Li also smiled: "This is nothing."
He stood up, looked at the medical staff performing emergency rescue in the distance, and frowned slightly .
"What I'm worried about is that this guy won't make it."
"How could it be?"
"The creatures here are different from the things on earth. The toxin is in the snake's body. I don't know if the antidote we brought is effective."
< br>Yang Li said worriedly: "If he can't hold on, this guy may be the first soldier we sacrifice here."
Chen Lin can't help, listen. After reaching this point, I seemed a little helpless.
“Although I had been prepared for this before, after actually seeing it, I still had some...indescribable feelings.”
Yang Li came forward and patted Chen Lin on the shoulder.
"This is not your problem, don't have any psychological burden."
"This is a necessary step for humans to explore the new world, and anyone may encounter it."
"We are now in a brand new world. We are the first explorers of this world. Some possible sacrifices are normal."
"But although I am also very sad about this The guy was injured, but what I’m more angry about is that he didn’t strictly follow the guidelines in the manual to carry out the collection work.”
However, Yang Li's tone soon became much stern, "Everyone must undergo rigorous training. Everything in the new world is very likely to be full of dangers. If we don't realize this, what will happen next?" There will be more injuries and even sacrifices!”
“It seems that I need to compile a detailed report after I go back.”
