Chapter 989 Hyena King, Another Underground Passage!
The scattered shrapnel was like the whisper of death, flying close to the ground under the impact of the explosion.
The surface area of each piece may be only a few square centimeters, but under the acceleration of the explosion, the lethality is no less than that of a bullet.
The poor looters had just fallen to the ground, and now they jumped up from the ground as if they had bullets under their buttocks.
Screams and howls came one after another, and the rude and unbridled curses and gunshots made this quiet neighborhood lively in an instant.
"No, someone ambushed us!"
"It must be the damned mole old men, the cancer of the city, they have captured so many of our brothers, and now they are not willing to let us go!"
"Kill them, fight them!"
"Where are the people, where are the people?"
"They are lying on the ground, be careful of the ground, they are hiding in the fog!"
"Catch them, I will smash their heads with a hammer and feed all the stinking brains to the radiation beasts!"
There are a total of 23 predators on the ground.
Two were taken away by the male gun brother in the first wave, and then four were killed on the spot by the grenade thrown over.
At this time, when they heard that the enemy was hiding in the thick fog and lying on the ground.
Immediately, more than half of the remaining 17 people thought of retreating.
But unfortunately, as a predator approaching the manhole cover just took a step, a sharp arrow flashed from the shadow again.
Huh.
The dazzling blood splashed in the air, bringing a touch of miserable blood flowers.
Under this environmental advantage, the advantage of cold weapons was fully utilized by the three-person team, like a venomous snake lurking and preparing to attack at any time.
"Disperse, disperse!"
"Evacuate first, leave this place first!"
A man who seemed to be the captain of the predator team shouted, and the crowd that had just gathered some fighting spirit suddenly dispersed.
In fact, it was not that he did not want to resist.
But now not only did he not know the position of the opponent, but he did not even know how many people the opponent had.
Continuing to waste time with the opponent would only drag the team into a greater disadvantage.
"The radiation beast is coming."
"Quick battle and quick decision!"
In the chaos, the excited shout of Lao Dao, the coward, rang out.
If it was quiet before, the predators could barely rely on this sound to locate.
However, after the chaos, the crowd fled in all directions, and they could not care about where the enemy was.
Under this fear that is difficult to describe in words.
In the shadows, the wolf crossbow in the hands of the male gun brother kept firing, accurately hitting the predators who were fleeing madly one by one.
At first, some people tried to resist, picking up their guns and shooting at the ground.
But unfortunately, the poor predators could not even see the enemy, so these resistances were destined to be futile.
Before the first wave of radiation beasts arrived, the male gun brother calmly half-crouched and fired the last crossbow arrow.
Huh
The poisonous arrow covered with paralytic liquid accurately hit the calf of the predator captain, and instantly made the other party fall straight to the ground.
"Drag him away and leave this place first."
The dreamer and the old Taoist stepped forward and quickly took out a section of hemp rope from their backpacks and tied the captain's hands and feet.
Then, the two of them skillfully carried it on their shoulders and hurriedly followed the male gun brother to disappear in the fog.
Less than thirty seconds passed.
In the shadow of the fog, the figures of radiation beasts began to appear.
Compared with the mutant hyenas encountered in Sumo near the northern suburbs.
The hyenas in this radiation beast holy land in the southern suburbs are more manic and much larger in size, even the smallest ones are like calves.
Whether it is the 60-centimeter-long fangs, the metallic claws under the soles of the feet, or the nearly one-meter-long tail with barbs.
Normal humans encounter such a monster that "serves" the whole body for attack, without large-caliber firepower weapons, there is absolutely no chance of winning.
Jumping to the center of the grenade explosion, the mutant hyena sniffed the smell of gunpowder in the air that could evoke bad memories, and hissed in a creepy way.
They walked back and forth on the ground, as if trying to find the location of the guy who just released the grenade.
But unfortunately, the complex smell of the predator running back and forth has dispersed most of the tracks.
Until a hyena king with a body size comparable to that of a baby elephant slowly walked out of the shadow fog, the other hyenas were unable to find the location of the survivors.
"Woo!"
Completely different from ordinary mutant hyenas, the evolution of the hyena king is even more frightening.
If you look closely at its seemingly dry hair, you can actually see layers of fine lines interwoven together, like ancient chain mail that completely covers the fragility inside.
The tail, which is more than two meters long, swings back and forth in the air, and a light tap on the ground will create an obvious dent.
At the same time, its claws are even sharper, and every step will leave obvious claw holes on the ground.
Combined with its fangs that are almost one meter long, if it were placed in the era of cold weapons, this monster could stand firmly at the top of the food chain!
Slowly walking to the place where the grenade exploded, a trace of human fear flashed in the eyes of the hyena king.
The hyena tribe respects strength.
In the "long" nine years of dog life, it has been the well-deserved "long-lived dog" among the mutant hyenas in the entire southern suburbs.
Relying on the "resume" of dodging dozens or hundreds of hunting by wanderers in the past years, defeating countless young hyenas who attempted to challenge his status, and repeatedly leading the hyena tribe to win territory.
In the complex sphere of influence of the radiation leader in the southern suburbs, every hyena here respects it very much.
But with the erosion of time.
More than a year ago, when it wanted to easily take down the provocative young hyena as before.
The hyena king began to discover in horror.
Its claws were no longer so sharp, with broken gaps and blunt edges.
Its body was no longer strong, and the muscles that drooped and lost control of its abdomen looked like the beer bellies of those humans in the shelter.
Even more, it found that its appetite began to shrink, and it could no longer eat as much food as when it was young, and its digestive ability was greatly weakened.
In the world of radiation beasts, the strong prey on the weak.
Facing those newborn and strong young hyenas, even if the hyena king's brain might be only the size of a baby's fist, there were not too many complicated emotions.
But without these advantages, it still began to feel fear day after day, day after day.
More than a month ago, when the humans in the western suburbs started a war again, a young and strong hyena migrated with his tribe to avoid the disaster.
For the first time, the Hyena King wanted to escape.
It was afraid that the other party would sneak up on it on a rainy night, bite off its fragile throat like it did when it was young, and suck the foul-smelling but extremely pleasant blood that gushed out from inside.
It was afraid that those ordinary hyenas who were willing to surrender would find that the old hyena king had grown old, and turn to become the tribe of that old hyena and deal with itself in turn.
In the past years, it has been the king for too long and has long forgotten how to bow and scrape.
At the same time, in order to compete for territory, it has also offended many nearby radioactive beasts.
Once these damn guys find that the ordinary hyenas have betrayed, they will never miss this opportunity for revenge.
Under various complex considerations.
With the continuous tactical nuclear explosions yesterday, the hyena king could no longer bear the fear in his heart and fled with his tail between his legs.
Before leaving, it saw the mocking eyes of the young hyena king and the complacency of becoming the leader.
Strangely, after discovering that the other party did not come up to kill him, it was actually a little fortunate, without a trace of anger.
Escaped from this area and came to the edge of the southern suburbs.
After hiding in a narrow building ruins, the hyena king thought that he would slowly grow old in the wilderness for the rest of his life and eventually die in an inconspicuous corner.
But reality played a big joke on it.
It was just one night, just a pain that made him faint.
Wait until he woke up again the next day.
Everything has changed!
In the reflection of the accumulated water in the city, it stared blankly at its completely unfamiliar body, and there was an unprecedented sense of clarity in its chaotic mind.
In the past, when it faced those inedible foods, it just knew that the thing would make it very uncomfortable.
But now, it suddenly knew that it would get sick if it ate that thing.
Sick?
When this term popped up in his mind, the Hyena King shook his head in confusion and looked around.
What made it extremely satisfied was the radiation beasts that emerged from the shadows, and their eyes once again showed fear.
Just like when it was young and had just sat firmly on the throne of the Hyena King, those young male hyenas looked at it.
"I have become stronger! I want revenge!"
"I want to be the king of this city again, and I want to kill all the damn humans!"
A trace of inexplicable thoughts began to linger in the Hyena King's mind.
It went back along the way it escaped in a daze and stood in front of the young Hyena King again.
Over the night, the opponent's body size also changed significantly, at least twice as large.
But compared with its body that was at least five times larger.
It only used less than 20% of its strength, until the familiar bloody taste rushed out of its mouth and began to surge.
The Hyena King came back to his senses in a daze.
Once again, it became the well-deserved "Hyena King" of the entire hyena tribe.
But compared with the past, this time it was much easier, just like a dream!
"Woo woo woo"
A smell rushed into the nose, the Hyena King raised his head, and his eyes swept into the distance.
If the old Taoist was still here at this time, he would definitely be horrified to find that the Hyena King had located the direction where the three people had just escaped so quickly.
But strangely, the Hyena King did not chase immediately.
It glanced at the corpses left on the ground around it, shook its tail with satisfaction, and issued a low command.
What a joke to deal with humans with weapons?
Their terrifying weapons are not like the threatless claws and teeth of the radiation beast, which can't even break the defense.
There is still the residual power left by yesterday's explosion in his mind, and the Hyena King knows what he should do now.
Find more food and wait until the pain comes again.
Only more fierce.
Only by becoming stronger can it become the top predator in this city!
Before that, it should avoid fighting as much as possible and lead the tribe to become stronger.
"Woo!"
"Woo!"
Hearing the leader's order, the hyenas who were still on guard immediately gave up their vigilance and began to rush to the corpse on the ground to enjoy it.
The area around the manhole cover suddenly became a paradise for hyenas!
"Damn, this Sunny Harbor City is really not a place for people to stay now, it's too dangerous!"
After escaping one kilometer, he heard the obvious barking behind him.
The old Taoist wiped the blood off his face with a curse and punched the wound of the plunderer captain.
Hiss!
Even though he was still paralyzed, he could clearly feel the person on his shoulder shaking and throbbing with pain.
"It's okay, those radioactive beasts, they can't wait for us there all the time."
"Besides, as long as we can ask for a safe way to the underground, we can avoid most of the dangers."
Took a deep breath, the dream hunter sketched the nearby terrain on paper while looking for a hiding place.
Soon, a half-collapsed two-story hut appeared in sight.
"Go there!"
The top of the hut had completely collapsed, with a gap on the front and side.
This distribution just meets the current needs, there are places to defend and places to retreat.
Of course, it is just right for interrogation.
After clearing some debris that blocked the way, the two threw the hard predator inside first, and then walked in with a bent waist.
The male gun brother carefully wiped out the traces left nearby, and then followed into the interior.
"It's already four o'clock in the afternoon, and we don't have much time left."
"Before seven o'clock, we must find the entrance to the bottom."
With the fog covering, the poor sunlight is not enough to illuminate anything, but at least you can see clearly ten meters around.
But if it's night, without a light, it's really pitch dark!
After simply treating the arrow wound on the leg of the predator captain, the dream hunter took out a small bottle from his back.
The small bottle contains a blue viscous liquid, and there is a small label on the bottle.
'Awakening liquid'
A kind of juice squeezed out of a small grass can relieve the effects of paralysis sap.
Open the bottle mouth and feed the predator a few drops.
After about a few minutes, the stiff body began to soften, and the trembling lips began to return to normal.
But
"It hurts so much!"
When Rosas regained consciousness, he almost fainted from the pain.
These three damn wanderers, don't they know that although the awakening fluid can remove the paralysis effect, it will also amplify the pain effect?
However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment.
Because the next second after he spoke, the male gun brother took out a knife from somewhere.
The dazzling cold light burst from the tip of the knife and gently pressed against his throat.
"Say, wandering in the jungle, safe, how, go!"
The weird and rigid pre-war accent, the intermittent spelling of nouns, and the calm expression of the male gun brother.
If it were usual, Rosas might have made a few sarcastic remarks.
But now, he had an intuition.
If the next question is not answered well, the knife in the other party's hand will definitely stab down instantly!
"I know a way to get to the Wandering Jungle."
"It starts from our base, it only takes half an hour to get there!"
