The sound of the spear Li Shuo used immediately drowned out the centipede's hiss, and everyone felt the shock of thunder exploding in their ears.
During the brief period of deafness, the bullet spun and plunged completely into the white mist, followed by a tremendous explosion!
Flames erupted from the white mist, and a thick centipede leg suddenly flew out of the mist, heading straight for Ding Taishun and the others. They were still crouching on the ground, covering their ears, stunned by the sound of the first bullet being fired. They did not realize the sudden danger as the centipede leg approached.
Wang Lan turned and bent his knees, about to jump over to save everyone, but then he saw Nan Chen actually take the first step. With a light tap of his foot, his slender figure instantly turned into a blur, his speed was simply unbelievable.
The next moment, he appeared in front of Ding Taishun and the others, two daggers already in his hands, and began slashing and hacking at the flying centipede legs.
In the blink of an eye, the centipede's leg was torn to pieces and scattered on the ground.
"So strong!"
This is Wang Lan's evaluation of Nan Chen.
They can react quickly and arrive in time, while also resolving crises swiftly and efficiently, completing the entire process in one go.
Nan Chen can truly be called a master.
The group was still in shock, unaware of what had happened after the series of loud bangs. When they looked up, they saw Nan Chen's cold gaze looking down at them.
Sasa shouted, "Sand centipedes never act alone! Retreat! Avoid direct confrontation!"
As he spoke, Li Shuo pulled the trigger of his rifle and fired another shot!
The hissing sound suddenly amplified in the white mist, becoming chaotic and jarring.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
Wang Lan called out to the villagers of Hope Village, because it was easy to tell from the sound that the two consecutive shells had thoroughly enraged the centipede swarm, and they would soon arrive.
"Zhang Jian, clear the way!"
Sha Si shouted to the group, "Nan Chen and I will cover your retreat! Li Shuo, provide covering fire and suppressive fire!"
"clear!"
The other three answered in unison.
They are truly well-trained.
Zhang Jian lightly touched the ground with his foot, leaped into the air, and rushed to the front of the group, shouting for everyone to follow. At the same time, he gripped the box on his back tightly with both hands.
Two black rectangular metal strips were torn off the box, held in hand, and then transformed into two multi-barreled machine guns.
"Follow Zhang Jian!"
At the envoy's command, the white-armored soldiers immediately turned around and surrounded the envoy, following Zhang Jian.
"Pooh!"
Wang Lan spat, disgusted by the Holy Envoy's self-centered behavior, and then said to the group from Hope Village, "Don't fall behind, let's retreat!"
"The centipedes are here!"
Nan Chen then spoke loudly.
In the white mist ahead, a giant centipede, far larger than the one Wang Lan had seen in the safe zone, charged forward, baring its fangs and claws.
And behind this leading centipede, countless others followed closely behind.
"Fuck you!!!"
Li Shuo pulled the trigger again, and a shell flew from the muzzle. He turned around and called to the others, "We can't win, retreat quickly!"
The next moment, the ground beneath his feet suddenly began to tremble violently.
The sudden turn of events caused Li Shuo to lose his footing, and he stumbled, almost falling to the ground, but Wang Lan appeared beside him and caught him.
Li Shuo looked up and was moved to tears: "Good brother, let's go outside and burn some paper money to become sworn brothers!"
"If you don't leave, I'll go to your grave and burn newspapers for you!"
As Wang Lan spoke, she lifted Li Shuo up in one swift motion.
The special task force members were stunned by this scene. Li Shuo, who weighed nearly 400 pounds, was treated as if he were nothing in Wang Lan's hands. After lifting Li Shuo, Wang Lan pushed off with his feet and quickly left the spot.
The moment they left, the ground suddenly cracked open, and a huge shadow burst out of the earth, instantly polluting the white mist with the dust that filled the ground.
Amidst the smoke and dust, the enormous shadow revealed its true form.
It was a gigantic millipede!
The millipede was nearly three meters long, with densely packed thin legs distributed on both sides of its body. Its thick and long torso twisted and swayed, covered with black and brown stripes, and it made a strange "hissing" sound.
Upon seeing the millipede's true form, the group was immediately horrified, goosebumps rising all over their bodies and then falling to the ground in a flurry.
At this moment, the millipede straightened its body, its long, thin legs on both sides wriggling incessantly, the tentacles on its head swaying with its thousand legs, and the dark brown markings on its body seemed to be changing in layers. Then, on the top of its head, the skin suddenly rippled like water, followed by a "gurgle" sound!
A blood-red eye squeezed out from between the dark brown stripes!
"hiss!!!"
The task force members gasped in shock.
"Awooooo—"
The millipede roared!
The eyes, hidden among the dark brown markings, rolled and looked at Nan Chen, who was closest to it.
The millipede's tentacles immediately began to tremble violently, then it straightened its body and charged towards Nan Chen.
Despite being seasoned veterans, the fear and danger emanating from these multi-legged insects, rooted deep within their hearts and carried by millipedes throughout history, remained an inescapable shadow when facing them.
This caused even a strong member of the task force like Nan Chen to feel extremely uncomfortable for a moment, and he only came to his senses when Ma Lu rushed over.
