Chapter 22: A group of vampire long-tailed weasels
The anesthesia needle was inserted into the pink butt of the short-eared Link hedgehog!
Suddenly attacked, the short-eared Link hedgehog instinctively curled up into a ball, and the thorns on its back stood upright, glowing with a metallic cold light in the sun.
However, it failed to find the sneak attacker in the first place, so it did not shoot those deadly thorns, and even with such a slight hesitation, the anesthetic began to take effect.
Its tense body gradually relaxed, and it took two steps to trot unsteadily on its short legs. Then, as if it was drunk, it fell to the ground, whistling loudly. Fell asleep.
Pochi waited for a while to make sure that the short-eared Link hedgehog was completely unconscious, then stepped forward to pick it up, tied it up and threw it into the bag.
Ma Lu’s kitchen knife is already ready to move. The lowest two-star ingredients can contribute blue quality blessings, and maybe even a purple grand prize.
However, there is a 40% price difference between the short-eared Link hedgehog when it is alive and dead. Pochi definitely hopes to take it back alive as much as possible.
Since you have formed a team, of course you must also consider the attitude of your teammates, and since the things are on the motorcycle anyway, it is not too late to hit the target when needed.
After that, Boqi also caught two horn-bellied black speed snakes, but unfortunately he started a little late, and the nest of jumping mice had already entered their stomachs.
However, the two horn-bellied black speed snakes did not leave in a hurry after their meal. They just lay lazily in the rat's nest, which saved Pochi a lot of effort.
After hunting the prey in this area, the two of them got on their motorcycles and continued heading deep into the desert.
Ma Lu has confirmed from Boqi that his return this time is very close to the location he left last time.
Boqi also said that the farther away from the giant screen, the more frequent prey activities, and the greater the chance of rare prey appearing.
The scanning results of the bracelet also confirm this.
If they hadn't accidentally encountered a group of two-headed jackals during the last hunt, both of them could only have caught some 1-star ingredients, but this time they encountered 2-star ingredients as soon as they came.
And this was no accident. 40 minutes later, the two met another group of vampire long-tailed weasels.
They are eating the carcass of an animal under the sand dunes. The animal looks a bit like a camel from another dimension, but it is much larger, close to an adult Asian elephant, and has sharp tusks. tooth.
“Three-humped wolf camel.”
Poch put down the telescope, “In terms of strength, it is still above that group of vampire long-tailed weasels. It should have been there before meeting those group of vampire long-tailed weasels. He died, and those guys took advantage of him.”
Seeing Boqi's eyes flashing, Ma Lu raised his eyebrows, "What, do you have any ideas?"
"Well. The meat of the three-humped wolf camel is very valuable, but it looks like it has started to rot, so I can't take it, but There is also a group of vampire long-tailed weasels, and those things are also very popular in restaurants."
"But... there are probably too many of them."
Ma Lu didn't count them carefully. Just taking a quick glance, I felt that there were at least forty or fifty vampire long-tailed weasels.
They were like leeches, firmly attached to the dead three-humped wolf camel, and they would twist their bodies once or twice from time to time.
If he saw so many vampire long-tailed weasels on a normal day, Pochi would definitely turn around and run away, hiding as far away as he could.
Especially the experience after joining the Harpers made him doubt whether he could become a hunter.
It wasn’t until he was in a desperate situation six days ago that fighting against the jackals allowed him to regain his long-lost confidence.
The most important thing is that Malu's weird telepathy ability called Meat Pigeon has greatly increased his strength, so Boqi's courage has also increased. "It's definitely not possible to attack head-on, but you can find a way to lure some over. Long-tailed weasels are particularly sensitive to blood, especially the smell of blood, and their strength, endurance, speed and intelligence are not as good as those of two-headed jackals. As long as you are careful not to be surrounded It's relatively easy to deal with.
"In addition, I will keep the motorcycle running. If the situation really goes wrong, we can evacuate immediately."
Seeing that Boqi had already considered all the situations, Ma Lu had no objection.
After that, Boqi also set up several traps, then picked up a horn-bellied black speed snake, cautiously approached the group of vampire long-tailed weasels, and stopped about seventy steps away from them.
Using a knife, he chopped off the head of the horn-bellied black speed snake, and then turned it back.
As Pochi retreated, he was still paying attention to the movement on the other side, when he saw dozens of vampire long-tailed weasels suddenly raising their heads together, their small blood-red eyes looking around.
He immediately blocked the horn-belly black speed snake's wound with his hands, and at the same time quickened his pace, changing from a sprint to a trot.
As the smell of blood in the air faded again, some vampire long-tailed weasels stopped being restless and continued to lie on the three-humped wolf camel to feast, but there were also seven vampire long-tailed weasels that felt the excitement of fresh blood. The summons broke away from the group and sniffed all the way this way.
Boqi waited for them to get closer and then opened the wound a little bit, so the vampire long-tailed weasels suddenly became excited and sped up.
Boqi put away the horn-bellied black speed snake, held the mechanical spear instead, and squatted behind a small sand dune. When the vampire long-tailed weasels approached, the spear in his hand suddenly thrust out.
It hit the vampire long-tailed weasel at the front, and its strengthened power was terrifying. The spear continued unabated and pierced the abdomen of another vampire long-tailed weasel!
Boqi directly took away two prey with his spear, but instead of feeling scared, the remaining vampire long-tailed weasels became excited.
The blood of companions is also blood, and it also has a fatal attraction for them. One vampire long-tailed weasel even took the initiative to pounce on the mechanical spear in Boqi's hand, trying to suck blood, but ended up hanging himself on it. above.
The other four vampire long-tailed weasels were not so stupid. They rushed towards Pochi, but two of them touched the bear trap buried in the sand before they could reach Pochi. With a loud sound, he was tightly clamped by the serrated steel collar, unable to move.
The remaining two Pochis are very easy to deal with. They step on the neck of one with their boots. When the other one pounces, he reaches out his hand and strangles the prey at lightning speed. Throat, throw it hard to the ground!
The vampire long-tailed weasel was hit hard by this blow, and before it could get up, it was stabbed to death by Pochi with a mechanical spear.
Malu was not idle either. He picked up the dead vampire long-tailed weasels as quickly as possible, threw them into the collection bag, and then got on the motorcycle with Boqi, before the other vampire long-tailed weasels were killed. He left here before the smell of blood attracted him.
And when the vampire long-tailed weasels lost their target, calmed down, and returned to the corpse of the three-humped wolf camel to eat, the two of them sneaked back.
Boqi repeated his old trick, using fresh blood to lure a small number of vampire weasels to leave the group... He repeated this several times, and soon killed less than twenty of the group of vampire weasels.
And unlike previous hunts, Bochi did not feel much tired after several battles. Instead, he felt that he was getting braver with each battle.
This is not an illusion. His strength, speed, endurance and reflexes have indeed been improved to varying degrees during the battle.
This kind of telepathy ability that can continuously become stronger by sacrificing opponents was something Boqi had never heard of before.
Is this... the power of meat pigeons?
Faced with the last vampire long-tailed weasels, Pochi stopped running away and simply rushed into the group of weasels, with his mechanical spears flying like the scythe of death.
A rain of blood floated in the sky. Faced with this rare beauty, the vampire long-tailed weasels had no intention of admiring it. It didn't take long for them to lie down on the ground.
Boqi held the mechanical spear, but he still had some unfinished thoughts. He turned to look at the initiator of all this. Malu was just standing there, but seemed to be busier than him, poking at the air. Click.
