Chapter 507: Tactical Choice
Ye Lan's eyes flickered.
A large number of signals suspected of this creature have not appeared yet, and they may not even have discovered them. This is good news.
If you think along this line, the best way is to ignore it and pass through here at the fastest speed. Ye Lan is at least 50% sure that this creature will not be alarmed.
But...
What if the situation is the other 50% possibility?
This thing is not a question of whether it can be defeated or not, but the impact is too great and the noise is too loud. If a large area of 'psychic cockroaches' launch an attack, it is impossible not to hide.
But once you hide...
Ye Lan's eyes swept across the magma on all sides under his feet.
That will be unavoidable, life-threatening!
These things must be found, their nests must be found!
But... where else can they be?
This place is already so empty, if you don't see them, where else can they exist?
Ye Lan raised his head suddenly.
About three meters above his head, there are normal rock layers. This scene is actually extremely simple.
Magma, rock layers, stone platform
Ye Lan stared at the rock formation above his head.
If you see through this essence, then everything is actually very simple.
The stone platform under your feet can't hide this thing, it's too big, it's bigger than the stone platform itself.
Magma is also impossible, because this kind of creature will be burned to death by magma.
Then even if it can't be seen, no matter how impossible it is, it may only exist in one place.
That is the rock formation above your head!
But... there's really nothing!
Ye Lan's flashlight shined directly, and he looked at the texture of the rock formation carefully.
The color and soil are exactly the same, there is no place where it can appear.
He squatted down and found the remains of the "cockroach" that was cut off by a sword. He also resisted the nausea and grabbed it through the gloves to take a look.
Looking at this shell as hard as rock, Ye Lan's expression did change slightly.
It is exactly the same color as the rock formation.
If it doesn't open its eyes...
Eyes...
Eyes?
Ye Lan raised his head again, and it was still a deep and heavy rock formation, exactly the same as what he had seen before.
However, when he looked at it again with a guess, the scene was different again.
"Ye Lan... You don't think..."
Bai Taotao's voice was a little frightened.
"Yes." Ye Lan confirmed the guess that frightened her, and said her judgment of the situation just now:
"So now we have two choices."
"First, take advantage of the moment to build a defense line, prepare, and then take the initiative to wake them up and destroy them."
"Second, bet that they are still sleeping and have not discovered us, and leave as quickly as possible."
Ye Lan's two plans made everyone silent.
Logically speaking, it sounds stupid to take the initiative to wake them up, and it is the best strategy to go quietly. The terrain here is really not suitable for fighting.
But the problem is the same. This place is really not suitable for fighting. If you are not prepared and are suddenly attacked halfway, it is simply...
"This is tantamount to handing your life to the enemy."
Ye Lan's eyes flickered and made a decision.
"Set up defenses on the stone platform under my feet."
"Yes!"
What is needed at this time is a person who can take responsibility and dare to make decisions, and only Ye Lan meets such standards.
The team jumped to the stone platform where Ye Lan was and began to prepare for defense on the spot.
Swish!
A bunch of portable shelters that were initially only small iron plates were taken out, and then with the sound of swish, they continued to stretch, and finally expanded into a thin layer of portable shelters that looked extremely solid.
The shelters covered a circle in all directions, and everyone had props that could withstand attacks.
All in the shelters, the four people faced four directions, and set up some traps at the level of supernatural objects, and finally looked at Ye Lan at the same time.
The preparations have been completed, and the rest is...
Fight!
Ye Lan pulled out the small chaos bell, raised his head, raised the handgun, and aimed at his head.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and the bullet sunk into the rock layer.
Just like hitting the ground, the bullet embedded slightly, stirring up a cloud of dust. At such a moment, hundreds of large black spots suddenly appeared on the rock layer above the head!
The black spots themselves were not abrupt, and even so, they were not strange, just like normal rock layers. It was only under the existing speculation that Ye Lan understood what this thing was.
This is, eyes.
The countless eyes of the giant, psychic cockroach!
"Fire!"
Ye Lan snorted lightly, and the firepower of the whole team roared and covered the top of the head.
Boom boom boom!
In an instant, the team showed their magical powers.
Bai Taotao grabbed the automatic rifle, relying on the various amplifications and accuracy of the gene enhancer, and vented fierce firepower at possible weaknesses.
Xia Manman's hand cannon was constantly overloaded, but because of severe restrictions, it could not cover her entire body, which seemed a bit strange. She kept bombarding upwards, and the fog blue coins were swaying like rain.
Boom boom boom boom!
Su Xiaguang showed the highlight of the whole scene. Large-scale fireballs kept bombarding the top of the head, and rocks fell down for a while.
Swish!
In a fierce round of bombardment, at least ten psychic cockroaches with strange power were blasted to the ground. But compared with their own number, this still seemed to be just a drop in the ocean.
Buzz!
As the wings flapped, the ‘rock layers’ kept ‘falling off’. In the blink of an eye, countless giant cockroaches swooped down.
Swish!
Ye Lan jumped up and drew out the Absolute Spirit Sword in mid-air. A large-scale slash almost produced a cold light.
The sword light flashed, and it directly cut the four cockroaches in half.
This weapon was indeed very useful. After the moment of contact, it directly broke through the opponent's psychic defense and successfully killed them.
Rustle!
The ears were full of the unpleasant noise caused by the creature falling into the magma, and several people were sweating for a while.
This was obviously just the beginning. More and more psychic cockroaches awakened, and then rushed towards them from all directions.
However, everyone had already had a rhythm, and they still seemed to be at ease when facing each other.
In this process, Ye Lan could not help but recall the past when he faced the mutant giant rat.
Except that the mutant creatures they fought this time were too disgusting, everything else was very similar.
The difference was that this time there was an elite team that had been brought out; the difference was that even though they had been fighting for so long and were so severely weakened, they were still quite capable.
It would probably take only a little more time to solve these things.
Boom!
At this moment, an unexpected change suddenly occurred.
A honeycomb-shaped, round boulder with a length and width of nearly ten meters suddenly loosened in the hard rock formation above his head, and it smashed straight into the stone platform.
The stone platform was only about two or three meters long and wide, which was simply... unavoidable!
"Fire coverage!"
Ye Lan shouted, and the firepower of the entire team was vented crazily towards the top of his head.
Countless explosions hit the falling boulder, and the boulder disintegrated in the air, but it did not turn into a large piece of dust, but split into hundreds of psychic cockroaches!
At the center of the group of cockroaches was a giant cockroach that had never been seen before, with a body length close to incomparable.
Boom!
The piercing noise was hidden in the countless Zhang Langzhongs rushing towards them, and the ground under their feet suddenly trembled and bumped.
Xia Manman and Su Xiaguang almost fell into the magma in an instant. Ye Lan couldn't help but be slightly startled and hurriedly pulled them back.
"This is..."
Before there was any new speculation, the psychic cockroaches rushed down like crazy at several times the speed before.
Dozens of cockroaches crowded in the air and collided with each other repeatedly, and even the few outside were directly hit into the magma, without stopping the attack for even a moment.
Boom!
The team attacked desperately, trying to block this wave outside the defense zone, but in the sudden tremor, they fell to pieces again.
Ye Lan stabilized his standing posture and completed a large-scale chopping again, his eyes flashing wildly.
This is definitely not a problem of the team, but...
Ye Lan lowered his head.
The stone platform on the magma suddenly moved!
Boom!
The fall of several members of the team brought about an inevitable firepower omission, and finally cockroaches began to rush down.
Even though Ye Lan successfully cut it in half at the last moment, its hard shell still hit the stone platform heavily.
The space for standing was limited, and with the more violent shaking of the stone platform, the formation was inevitably in chaos, and the loopholes in the defense line became more and more.
There have been many fatal threats in a row and they have been saved. If the situation does not improve...
Bang! !
This is a heavy sniper sound mixed with a thunderous sound among countless messy sounds.
But this gunshot did not come from Bai Taotao, the only one in the team who was using a gun.
Puff.
There was a sound of a bullet passing through the flesh, and Ye Lan's eyes slightly raised.
There was a bullet hole in his body.
