Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

She immediately stood up, walked quickly to the edge of the pothole-ridden mud ground, and waved to Hu Ba who was still on guard not far away.

When Hu Ba came over, he pointed at the mark on the ground and said:

"It looks like footprints,"

Then, thinking of the characteristics of chestnuts, he asked tentatively:

"Could it be a mutant squirrel?"

Hu Ba carefully identified the footprints in the mud. Although the prints were of varying depths and disorganized, making it difficult to determine the specific outlines, the mission details clearly stated that the difficulty level of the mission was "dangerous", which meant that there must be some strange beasts active in the vicinity. They had been busy for a whole morning and had not seen a single strange beast.

Therefore, there is no need to make too much judgment about this footprint, it must be from a strange beast living in this mutated chestnut forest.

The marks were not big, about the size of an adult's palm, which meant that the monster was most likely not as tall as a normal human. Moreover, there were a large number of marks, which showed that it was obviously a social animal.

It is most likely a mutant wood mouse that likes to live in the woods and often eats fruits.

"Mutated wood rat?"

Xu Sansan had never heard of the wood rat species, but... it was the end of the world anyway, and she had seen all kinds of strange beasts, so having more wood rats didn't matter, so she asked again:

"Do mutant wood rats like to hoard food? If they have this habit, then in their nests... will they..."

Hu Ba's eyes lit up, and he shook his octagonal beard under his nostrils:

"Whether or not we will hoard food, we can follow these footprints first and see if we can gain anything!"

Having said that, he immediately called for Yu Ge and Dashuai to gather together. The three of them picked up their machetes again and cleared a path in front. They followed the direction of the footprints and moved deeper into the mutant chestnut forest.

After running quickly for about 20 minutes, I suddenly heard a rustling sound among the branches above my head, and then countless brown-gray figures shuttled quickly among the dark green leaves.

Hu Ba immediately raised his hand, signaling everyone to be on guard.

The six people quickly dispersed and stood in a hexagon.

The cart on Xu Sansan's left arm had expanded to 1 meter in length, and the conical snake scales between the five fingers of his right hand were ready to go.

Qin Ergou tightly grasped the plunger in his hand, unable to suppress the excitement that kept surging in his chest. Lights and shadows immediately flashed in his brain, and he quickly rehearsed thousands of times, the hundred kinds of fancy ways he would use the plunger to attack the mutant wood mouse.

The little stutterer winked at everyone and quickly threw the micro-explosive bomb in his hand into the air.

With a loud bang, a micro-explosive bomb exploded among the treetops of the mutant chestnut tree in front, causing sparks to fly and white smoke to billow.

What followed was a burst of noisy "squeaking" sounds. The mutant wood mice hiding in the treetops of the mutant chestnut tree probably did not expect that this group of two-legged beasts in the mud would actually take the initiative to attack, causing quite a commotion for a while.

However, this unexpected commotion only lasted for 2 seconds at most, and soon, Xu Sansan felt countless gray shadows attacking his head.

She immediately raised the cart with her left arm to block, and at the same time with her right hand, she shot out four conical snake scales coated with snake venom into the air.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Two mutant wood rats that were flying towards her, claws wide open, were hit directly by the conical snake scales in mid-air.

With two "pa" sounds, they rolled to the ground quickly. However, the mutant wood mice were not killed directly. Their long furry tails were like a thick shock-absorbing blanket, which immediately protected their bodies when they landed. At the same time, the bones on their backs curled into rings, and as soon as they touched the ground, they rolled sideways and easily resolved the acceleration of falling from a high place.

Xu Sansan frowned slightly. It was indeed difficult to deal with, but...

In a flash, the two mutant wood mice with conical snake scales on their bodies, although they escaped the impact when they landed with the inherent advantage of their tails, were now dizzy and slow to react due to the snake venom that swept through their bodies.

Xu Sansan raised her left arm and quickly stopped the other mutant wood rats that were still attacking her. She took a big step forward with her left leg and moved to the side of the two mutant wood rats that were poisoned by snake venom.

She bent her left knee slightly, exerting force to keep it in place, straightened her right leg, touched the ground with her toes, and leaned forward slightly. She raised the cart shield on her left arm high up and swung it from right to left to block the attacks of other mutant wood rats. At the same time, she opened the high-energy knife in her right hand to the maximum and lowered it to knee height. The muscles in her arm tensed instantly, and she swept rapidly from the right rear to the left front.

With a "swish" sound, the two mutant wood mice that were still curled up on the ground and a little dazed were directly swept by Xu Sansan's blade, and a big bloody wound was immediately left on their heads.

Without stopping, Xu Sansan bent her wrist, put away the knife, and used the inertia of her right hand's sweep to quickly retract her right leg with her left leg as the center of the circle, taking a big step forward. She seized the opportunity and twisted her body 180 degrees.

The moment he looked behind him, he suddenly removed the cart shield on his left arm, opened the door wide and faced the enemy head-on!

The next second, a huge mutant wood rat, with its hard claws wide open, rushed towards her at a high speed.

It's now!

Xu Sansan clenched the high-energy knife in his right hand, and with a "whoosh", it swept from behind!

"Pfft!"

The two sharp claws of the mutant wood rat were cut off in mid-air!

Suddenly blood splattered everywhere!

"squeak!"

The mutant wood mouse that had lost its claws screamed in pain and fell to the ground. Xu Sansan simply retracted his legs and squatted down. The high-energy knife pierced straight into its brain the moment it landed on the ground, thus cutting off its screams.

At the same time, Hu Ba, Yu Ge and Dashuai formed a triangle, surrounding Xu Sansan and Xiao Jieba in the middle. Their machetes danced in the air, and they chopped at the mutant wood rats that leaped down from all directions.

Huh?

Where is Qin Ergou?

Xu Sansan waved his hand and shot conical snake scales into the air, while quickly scanning the battlefield with his peripheral vision.

At this time, on the trunk of a particularly tall mutant chestnut tree not far from the battlefield, a clump of thatch grass grew strangely about 5 meters from the ground.

I saw this ball of grass, sometimes stretching out into a patch of grass, sometimes curling up into a pile of grass, and it was twisting upwards along the trunk of the mutant chestnut tree at an extremely slow speed...

The mutant wood mice running around kept shuttling back and forth on the big tree, but as if they were selectively blind, they did not suspect the abrupt thatched grass pile.

Xu Sansan's eyes widened:

Is this okay? !

Seeing that Qin Ergou was in a relatively safe condition, he didn't pay too much attention to him and continued to slash at the attacks coming from all directions.

Time passed minute by minute, and the members of the four-party team kept killing the mutant wood rats in the air. The corpses on the ground piled higher and higher, but the endless attacks still swept towards them in wave after wave.

Oh shit!

Why isn't it over yet?!

Hu Ba felt that if they continued to fight like this, everyone would be exhausted sooner or later, so he shouted:

"Marshal Yuge, retract immediately!"

The three-person triangle standing position was instantly shortened from 10 meters between each person to 5 meters between each person.

Then Hu Ba's command continued:

"Little Stutter, Xiao Xu, immediately conduct tests in the protective circle, Yu Ge, Marshal, hold the defense line!"

"Yes!"

Everyone answered in unison!

Xu Sansan swung his left arm violently and slapped away a mutant wood mouse beside him. After watching it being split in half by Yu Ge's machete in an instant, he immediately squatted down, holding a shield in one hand to protect his head, and holding a light brain in the other hand, he began to test the mutant chestnut at his feet.

"Ding! Moderate pollution, can be used!"

day!

Sure enough, the Bora can only be driven in a dangerous place!

Xu Sansan quickly pulled out her high-energy knife and cut the mutant chestnut shell in half, directly cutting out two large brown bowls. Then, she took advantage of the situation and swept the mutant chestnut flesh inside habitually:

"Ding! Slightly contaminated, edible!"

What!

Her original intention was actually just to think that since the mutant chestnut shell could not be directly broken by a dagger, it meant that it was hard enough. She planned to cut a piece and have Qin Ergou wear it. After all, his frog skin soft armor was still lacking a hood.

Then I thought again, since it's already broken, it wouldn't hurt to test it again.

The result was unexpected, but the shell was moderately contaminated, while the flesh was slightly contaminated!

The sudden "mild pollution" sounded particularly pleasant amid the noisy sounds of chopping and felling in the mutant chestnut forest.

Hu Ba and his men were immediately excited:

It seems that today's mission is interesting!

Xu Sansan picked up the mutant chestnut shell "helmet" he had just cut and threw it towards the thatched pile that was already 2-3 meters high.

With a "pop", the "helmet" fell accurately into the thatch pile.

"Wear it carefully!"

As soon as Xu Sansan finished speaking, he saw the "helmet" sinking into the thatch pile little by little. After a few seconds, it completely disappeared.

At the same time, a silver-white aircraft landed with a "bang" in the other direction of the mutant chestnut forest.

Ten seconds later, Xipi and the Demon Wolf Squad quickly got off the aircraft.

Each of them held a curved bow in his hand and a metal bucket full of arrows on his back.

The sharp metal arrowhead emitted a cold light under the bright sun at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and there were dots of water stains in the cold light - that was the strong poison that Xipi had specially tempered it with.
