Chapter 239: Rats Die for Food
The square-chinned hunter reacted very promptly. He pounced forward as soon as he sensed the danger, narrowly dodging the golden forefoot. attack.
But before he could get up after landing, his body sank down again, and then the surrounding sand began to fall, forming a pit, and at the bottom of the pit was a Huge mouthparts!
The square-jawed hunter's eyes were horrified. Just when he thought he was about to be bitten off by the mouthpart, a metal rope as thick as a finger wrapped around his ankle.
The owner of the rope pulled hard and pulled him out of the mouth at the critical moment.
The remaining hunters were not idle either. After regaining consciousness, all kinds of attacks were already falling into the sand pit, which lasted for half a minute.
The attack gradually stopped after half a minute, but the iron-eating scarab under the pit had disappeared.
"Where did it go?" Everyone looked at Ace again.
"Uh... give me some time."
Only 10 of the 14 jerboas released by Ace before came back, and the other 4 were unknown whether they were dead or captured. Scared away.
And the remaining jerboas are also on strike. Ace has given them three pieces of dried meat each, but they are still unwilling to go underground to look for that scary big bug.
Seeing more and more people looking this way, their eyes seemed to be asking him why he hadn't started yet, Ace couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
He cruelly took out all the dried meat on his body and said to the jumping mice, "I only have so much left. If you still think it's too little, let's break up in two. You guys can help me." I won’t keep you anymore if you don’t help me.”
I don’t know whether it was the jerky he added that impressed the jerboas, or whether it was the jerboas he said later that you don’t want to do it. Make those jumping mice feel threatened.
Anyway, they finally defeated their fear, started to move, and burrowed underground one after another.
Ace couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The next moment, his feet were suddenly empty, and one leg had sunk into the yellow sand.
Ace then saw two jerboas desperately trying to get out from under the sand, but they only emerged and disappeared again.
Having just witnessed what happened to the square-faced hunter, how could Ace not know what happened!
He quickly moved his legs, trying desperately to run up the pit, but the pit formed faster than he expected.
Fortunately, there were still many people waiting for him to find out the location of the iron-eating scarab. They had been paying attention to the movements here. The huntress who had rescued the hunter with a lower face before saw this and took action again. , manipulated her metal chain to come to Ace.
Wrapping one of Ace's arms, he planned to pull him out of the pit.
Just when Ace thought he was saved, two forelimbs stretched out from under the sandpit again and clamped one of his legs.
Ace couldn't help but let out a scream. The strength of the iron-eating scarab was astonishing, and this clamp forcefully broke his leg bones.
The huntress who controlled the metal chain on the other side exerted a little force, and Ace was pulled and screamed miserably.
She could only let go of the metal chain, but the metal chain did not retract after leaving Ace's arm, but instead wrapped around one of the iron-eating scarab's forelimbs.
Huntress wanted to use this method to stop the iron-eating scarab from stuffing Ace into its mouth. But she obviously underestimated the power of the big golden bug, and instead was staggered by the latter, and they rowed towards the sand pit together.
A male hunter with only nine fingers beside her also rushed forward at this time, and pulled the metal chain with her. At the same time, a set of sand armor condensed on the nine-fingered hunter's body. The weight of the sandy armor was astonishing, weighing a full two hundred kilograms. After the nine-fingered male hunter put on the armor, his feet sank into the sand, but he still couldn't stop the metal chain from being pulled into the pit.
Others also took action. Some released fireballs, which exploded on the head of the iron-eating scarab. Some condensed the sand near the bunker into spikes and stabbed the iron-eating scarab. Someone even summoned a tornado on the belly of the big golden bug...
However, these attacks on the iron-eating scarab were not painful or itchy, and they did not leave even a wound. .
Seemingly realizing that the humans above had nothing to do with it, the iron-eating scarab simply crawled out of the sand pit.
Its body is nearly nine meters long and is pale golden in color. It has a pair of front legs, a pair of middle legs and a pair of hind legs. Almost all parts are covered by carapace, making it impossible for enemies to find it. The place to start.
Seeing that none of his own attacks could break through the defense, despair began to spread among the hunters.
Such a terrifying opponent is simply not something they can defeat. Taking part in such an assessment may have been a mistake from the beginning. Some people are already thinking so.
But some people still did not give up resistance. The hunter in charge was named Dian Lu. After discovering that such a chaotic attack had no effect, Dian Lu immediately found the hunter who summoned the tornado.
Asking the latter to continue creating tornadoes around the iron-eating scarab, he also found eight hunters with excellent melee abilities, opened the equipment box provided by the Shuangyanghua Hunting Group, and took out the thermal cutting saw from it.
This is the only weapon that can damage the Iron-Eating Scarab.
At the same time, Dian Midori was still loudly encouraging others.
“This iron-eating scarab is less than ten meters long, and it is only pale golden. It has not yet completed its transformation into adulthood. As long as we cooperate properly, we still have a chance to defeat him. To say the least, even if we have to Before retreating, you must first rescue your companions.”
The hunters he selected are not newbies. They have been in other hunting groups before. They have rich combat experience and strong ability to withstand pressure. He still remained calm about the current situation.
Hearing this, they all nodded, "No problem, we will all obey the command."
After that, Nori Midori divided the 8 people into groups of two and divided them into 4 teams, and distributed 3 hot cutting saws to 3 of the teams. The remaining team remained mobile as a backup and moved closer to the iron-eating scarab.
The sand and dust kicked up by the tornado provided them with cover, allowing them to quickly approach the big bug, and then attacked it from three directions.
Two of the three teams just feigned attacks to attract the attention of the iron-eating scarab. The remaining team took the opportunity to jump on its back and used a thermal cutting saw to cut off the iron-eating scarab. Beetle's forelimbs.
At the last moment when Ace was about to be put into the mouth, they finally sawed through the thick carapace on the outside of the forelimbs and cut off its joints.
Ace's body fell from the air.
The prey that had been brought to the mouth just slipped away, making the iron-eating scarab extremely angry. It swung its other forelimb to stab the unconscious Ace on the ground.
But a metal chain appeared from nowhere and dragged the person away one step ahead.
