Chapter Nine Hundred and Fifty Seven Sudden Retreat
Except for Yunmeng, the other zombies were only level 6 or 5, and the abilities thrown out couldn't hold the giant underground gorilla at all.
And after the underground orangutan was thwarted again and again, it immediately became popular. The counterattack was also sharp.
When it fell to the ground and was blocked by the earth wall, it swung a paw and blasted it into slag. When it was entangled by wooden vines, it just struggled left and right, and it broke.
At this time, a figure sneaked around from outside the battle field, and followed in the direction of Xiao Licheng and Yunmeng.
Seeing that Xiao Licheng was temporarily out of danger, Wu Chengyue continued to pull Lin Qiao away from the spot. Both wanted to see how far the eyeless monster could chase them.
However, at this moment, the huge subterranean gorilla stopped suddenly. It swayed from side to side, then turned around in place, and then stood there quietly for a while. Then he suddenly turned around and walked back, this time he walked slowly, not as far as he just jumped tens of meters.
And as he walked, the pressure of its aura began to quickly subside. Soon it will no longer be felt.
"Huh?" Yunmeng also felt it, and she brought Xiao Licheng to stop on the roof of a building, looking in the direction of the underground gorilla.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her appearance, Xiao Licheng subconsciously asked curiously.
Yunmeng said: "Didn't you feel it? It didn't chase after it, and it even hid its breath. The movement also disappeared."
Hearing what she said, Xiao Licheng immediately noticed it. Indeed, he didn't feel the sense of oppression that made him breathless just now. The sound and vibration of the giant running quickly could not be heard.
At this time, No. 8 and Xia Ri were the first-class zombies closest to the giant orangutan. They all quietly watched the giant monster's breath disappear without a trace, and watched the other party bend down and walk back slowly.
The strange thing is that although it is large in size, it makes no sound when it moves around. Without a sound, he submerged his figure into the dark night, and disappeared through the night.
Ah Si landed next to Lao Liu, staring blankly at the direction in which the giant beast disappeared. Then he looked up at the sixth child in doubt.
Lao Liu looked down at him and shook his head. He said in a hoarse voice, "I don't understand."
He didn't understand what was going on, why did the big guy who was chasing fiercely just now stop chasing him suddenly?
However, they did not relax their vigilance, but continued to stare at the giant orangutan and began to sneak silently in the dark, but the direction was no longer chasing Xiao Licheng's direction.
Originally, Xiao Licheng's fresh breath was the target of his prey tonight, but voluntarily giving up his prey is not like the habit of this kind of predator.
Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue, who were about to leave, immediately stopped their preparations to leave and turned around.
"It stopped? The breath is also put away." Wu Chengyue's eyes flashed blankly, and he asked in some puzzlement: "Why?"
Lin Qiao squinted her eyes for a moment, then subconsciously shook her head to express that she didn't understand.
But he quickly realized that now Wu Chengyue couldn't see any good moves. Then he raised his hand and pressed it on the opponent's arm, and said: - I don't know.
After speaking, she let go of her hand again, and crossed her arms to speculate on the behavior of this subterranean gorilla.
This subterranean orangutan didn't even start the mad state, why did he stop chasing after halfway? Could it be some kind of trick? Or does it change the combat style? Are you ready for a sneak attack?
The other party restrained his breath, and Lin Qiao could only judge its movements by smelling Fang's scent.
At this moment, Yunmeng brought Xiao Licheng back to the side of the two, and also expressed some puzzlement about the giant monster's behavior.
"It went back and didn't chase after it. It wasn't planning to attack." Yunmeng said.
Lin Qiao looked at her and asked: ——Are you sure?
Yunmeng said: "The old six and the eighth are still watching over there, or we will know when they come back and report."
Ten minutes later, Ah Si came back. He stood in front of Lin Qiao, talking to her.
Tell Lin Qiao that the monster has indeed gone back, and now Lao Liu and the others are still staring at it.
Lin Qiao frowned, and said to himself in a puzzled way: ——Why did it give up? Couldn't it be too far from that cave?
Suddenly she asked Yunmeng: —Where did it go just now? How far is it from the original hole?
Yunmeng answered aloud, "It's about ten kilometers away."
Lin Qiao suddenly thought of a problem. When these things made a hole to look for food, they only went in one direction. But every time they can't go far, no matter how many prey they catch, they will retreat after a certain distance. Continue to change the direction next time, all the distances seem to be kept in the same situation.
It seems that they dare not go too far.
Then Lin Qiao thought of a possibility, and she said: - Do you think these things have no sense of direction? Afraid of getting lost, that's why you can't go far? Did he go back the way he came, just follow the breath he left behind?
Yunmeng froze for a moment, then said: "You said they would get lost? It seems...it is indeed possible."
If it is a person in a dark environment, it is quite easy to lose direction. And these underground creatures have always lived underground, and their eyes have degenerated and they can't see anything. Of course, there is no sense of direction in the dark, and you can only rely on the five senses to sense the breath of the prey or the breath left by yourself as a mark.
As soon as Yunmeng spoke, Xiao Licheng and Wu Chengyue immediately understood what she meant.
Wu Chengyue's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement, "It's possible that many underground animals don't have a sense of direction. That's why they don't dare to go too far on land. If the breath left behind disappears, maybe they will find There's no way home."
But this is just everyone's guess, and it is still uncertain. So everyone dare not take it lightly.
"If their eyes fail, they will be more sensitive to breath. I think this possibility is very high." Xiao Licheng, who was slightly frightened just now, has calmed down and agreed.
"Next time you can catch them alive and go back to study them." Yunmeng said with some enthusiasm.
Since these things will not run too far on the ground, the danger to the sentient beings base will be temporarily reduced by 10%.
Lin Qiao said: ——Let's go back first, I don't know what happened to the research results of the corpse that was sent back to the base.
As she spoke, she went downstairs and released several cars on the ground. Holding his belly, he got into the back seat of the first car.
Without even thinking about it, Wu Chengyue followed her into the first car. He is not worried about letting her stay too far away from him now, lest he will not be able to protect her in an emergency. This is the outside of the apocalypse, any danger will appear in the next second.
Xiao Licheng got into the driver's seat tacitly, and watched Yunmeng climb into the passenger seat before starting the car.
The other zombies crowded into the two cars behind.
