Sword and Magic and Taxi
Chapter 127 About the chain of eating and being eaten
When I came back to my senses, a long time had passed. Why didn't the alarm clock go off? Zhao Mai looked at his phone and burst into laughter. It turned out that the phone was still in Earth time and had not moved at all. It seems that the sand and heat have also affected my brain.
Time here almost stands still compared to the earth. Why is this? What kind of force creates this difference in time flow rate, and what kind of force keeps the car absolutely stable? How will your lifespan be affected? Is there a world where the flow of time is reversed? The questions in Zhao Mai's mind were like corn in a microwave, exploding into popcorn, but his current state was obviously not suitable for thinking.
The sun has kissed the horizon, reluctant to leave, still full of affection. The red sunshine has not weakened at all, and is still roaring with anger: Lower your head! Kneel down! Die!
Zhao Mai had no choice but to lower his head, kneel down to check Butcher's condition, and then was thankful that everyone survived for a day. He raised his middle finger to the sun, and even though his throat hurt terribly, he still yelled: Get out of here! When Butcher heard this voice, he slowly opened his eyes, then raised the corners of his mouth and smiled silently.
Do you still have the strength? Eat something. Zhao Mai took out a piece of raw meat, threw it to Butcher, and then tore off another piece for the food reserve. The puppy didn't have much appetite, but under Zhao Mai's stern eyes, he had to chew hard.
How long have I been unconscious? Butcher looked at the rope on his belt, which was still tightly tied.
I don't know either. As long as you are still alive, none of this matters. Zhao Mai checked the water bag and found that only the last half of the three water bags was left. This result is already good. Drink it until you have the last sip, and then you quickly recover your strength. We need to find food and water.
Continue to hunt spiders? Butcher clenched his fists, his strength was much less than usual, but he could barely still fight. He also knew in his heart that he could only survive by working hard, and there was no room for reservation.
I don't know what it will cause. Zhao Mai looked around and found that the temperature had begun to drop. If there are living things, then this is undoubtedly the time when they are hungriest and most want to eat.
He took out a piece of spider meat from his backpack and simply threw it in the shade, and the bait was ready. There is no way to dig traps on the flowing sand, let alone provide cover for Zhao Mai and others. Therefore, the battle here is only the most direct killing, the simplest test of speed and strength, fighting spirit and skills, and the simple and cruel laws of nature. The two men spread the canvas on the ground and sat on it to wait. Since most of the creatures here are hiding underground, they hope that the canvas can weaken the transmission of breath on the body and act as a cover.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of sand moving finally came again. Zhao Mai and Butcher licked their lips and tightened their weapons. After a while, a round beetle emerged from under the sand, about the size of a miniature car. Six hairy legs grow on the sides, with the ends of the four rear legs growing as wide as paddles, and the front pair of feet with spikes. A group of small pointed tentacles were constantly twisting and vibrating in front of the head, making rustling sounds and detecting the surrounding situation.
Solve the problem of survival first, and then consider communicating with local creatures. After all, filling the canteen is much more important than finding the mount. The round beetle followed the smell of spider meat, and when it emerged from the ground, it discovered that there were other creatures. So it decided to bite the spider's flesh, twist around quickly, and raise its spiked feet. It makes a buzzing sound in an attempt to frighten the enemies in front of it.
Fresh meat! Butcher knew that his physical condition could not sustain a protracted battle, so he burst out and jumped high towards the round beetle. He swung the sword in his hand - all the heavier weapons were still in the trunk of the car - and struck the beetle hard on the back. The smooth and hard carapace had taken off most of the force, but there was still a layer of spiderweb-like cracks spreading out.
The beetle knew it was not good, swallowed the spider meat in two or two bites, and immediately retreated. With a flick of its paddle-like feet, it can dig a passage in the sand, and it can return to safety underground in up to ten seconds. Zhao Mai would never give it these ten seconds. He rushed forward in one stride, knocked away the round beetle's front legs, put the Megalodon musket against its mouth, and then pulled the trigger.
After one shot, the round beetle was still struggling, raising its front paws to die with Zhao Mai. Reserve Liang dragged one of its legs hard and threw it to the ground. Butcher slid off the round beetle's back and accurately hit the joint of its leg with his long sword. Zhao Mai took advantage of the round beetle's body to tilt and pulled the trigger again.
The power of the musket combined with the hit in the unprotected mouth caused the round beetle to fall to the ground and die. Now was not the time to celebrate victory. God knew what such a big body and such a loud noise would cause. Zhao Mai quickly cast a spell and filled the kettle as quickly as possible. Butcher already had experience dismembering insects, and soon cut off a large piece of bright white fibrous flesh.
Hey, there is a pocket inside this insect, and the stuff inside looks like honey. Butcher leaned down, dug out the round beetle's abdomen, and pulled out a soft sac the size of a volleyball. I brought it to my nose and smelled it, and it did have a sweet smell.
Don't eat it. Who knows what it is? It might be some kind of poison used to trap other bugs. Zhao Mai stuffed the kettle into his backpack and quickly stopped Butcher. Come, come here, drink your fill and wash your face. We must leave here quickly.
You're right, it will become dangerous here soon. Several people distributed the last water squeezed from the insects, ignoring the large amount of available food left, and hurriedly evacuated from the battlefield. Sure enough, after a while, the body of the round beetle became very lively.
The huge centipede is as long as a train car, and its shiny black feet can easily break through the body of the round beetle, but it is still not the most powerful. A black and red venomous lizard shot venom from its eyes from a distance of more than ten meters and accurately sprayed it into the centipede's mouth. Only a moment later, the centipede rolled wildly on the sand, curling up into a ball and causing sand and rocks to fly around. The poisonous lizard watched quietly, knowing that the centipede was dead.
A scorpion lurked from behind the poisonous lizard, with only its long scorpion tail exposed in the sand. Looking from a distance, it looks like a moving coconut tree. But the coconut tree suddenly bent down and poked the lizard in the back. Regardless of whether there is poison or not, this blow is enough to penetrate the lizard's body and kill it.
Slowly climbing out of the sand dune, Scorpion looked around the killing field majestically. It has a strong carapace, vicious pincers, and a vicious tail hook. It can attack enemies from multiple angles on the ground and underground, and can be called a main battle tank in the desert. The scorpion walked along, killing a few more beetles trying to pick up the missing ones, and then gathered all the corpses together and began to enjoy the hodgepodge.
Before it was full, new enemies appeared again, and then new enemies again. Once the killing starts, it won't stop easily. Before one wave subsides, another wave comes again. The greedy sand sea is constantly asking for new tributes, sucking and devouring every drop of blood essence of living creatures. But no matter how many people died, as long as the sun appeared, and then half of the day passed, the sand would cover all traces. No one knows what happened here. They only know that in the sea of sand, there is no difference between this place and that place, both are filled with death.
Zhao Mai studied for a long time and confirmed that the capsule contained a kind of edible honey, which was rich in nutrients and a rare food. After he cast Purify Food, he gave a handful to everyone and carefully put away the rest.
God knows how long we have to go!
But as long as you still have breath, you have to keep going - as long as you still want to live, this is the only choice.
