"It's not quicksand, it's more like there's something moving under the sand," Sun Tiantian murmured to herself, silently tightening her grip on Lu Sheng's hand.
Everyone immediately sensed danger.
Beneath the yellow sand, there are still hidden creatures!
Wu Hainan quickly realized the commotion behind him. He uttered a curse and stepped on the gas, speeding toward the entrance to the safe zone.
But the shifting sand dunes seemed intent on blocking him, suddenly accelerating as they approached the rear of the vehicle.
Just as Wu Hainan was driving his car only a dozen meters away from the safe zone, the sand dunes suddenly disappeared completely, and then rolled over the car from below.
A piercing buzzing sound came from the sandstorm, and a huge, multi-headed sand worm darted out of the sand pile.
"Holy crap... what kind of bug is this...?"
Everyone stared in astonishment at the monster writhing in the yellow sand.
The insect is about three meters long, covered with a smooth and hard shell, and its body is about the thickness of an adult man.
There were three large, wobbly heads, each with a bald head and only a huge, blood-red mouth.
Wu Hainan's car was overturned and the door was twisted and deformed on the spot.
The people inside the car tried desperately to push open the car door, but the deformed door was stuck tightly, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't open it.
The giant sandworm made a rustling sound and opened its blood-red mouth to bite the car.
Just as its three large mouths were about to bite the car door, three cylindrical icicles suddenly appeared in its mouth, forcefully prying open the sandworm's mouth.
The sandworm, its feeding rhythm interrupted, immediately shook its body angrily, spitting out the icicles in its mouth.
In that brief moment, Lu Sheng flicked his finger, and three air bullets were accurately fired at the sand worm's gaping maw.
Pfft!
The sound of the shell being pierced rang out instantly.
The gas cannon blasted through the sandworm's mouth, revealing three sticky, blurry holes.
The sandworms let out piercing screams, and pink flesh and golden blood scattered from the air onto the sand, leaving scorching pits in the ground.
"Get the person out." Lu Sheng gestured to Su Zheng with his eyes.
Su Zheng and the others rushed over to help. The sandworm, which was not stiff but still dead, swayed its body and used its last bit of strength to smash into the car.
At the critical moment, Lu Sheng directly detonated the sandworm's body with an air bomb.
With a huge explosion, the insect flesh rained down on the ground like fireworks.
"Sister Lu is still the best..." Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't help but applaud Lu Sheng.
Just as Su Zheng and the others were helping to pry open the car door and pull Wu Hainan and the others out, the people who had been watching the commotion from afar at the edge of the safe zone suddenly rushed forward in a swarm.
Ma Dongmei nervously raised her gun on the spot, only to find that this group of people were not there to cause trouble. Instead, they were all bent over, frantically picking up scattered insect meat on the sand.
"Thieves from the US, from the M country, from the Russian bear country, they're all here." Zhao Mujia surveyed the scrambling crowd from afar.
"How do you know my nationality?" Han Rui asked curiously.
Zhao Mujia chuckled, "The one with the round face and triangular eyes is definitely from South Korea, the shirtless drunkard is most likely from Russia, and the rest are obviously American white people."
"But... those bugs look so disgusting..." Tong Ziqi, who was on duty, almost vomited.
That's insect meat; she'd rather starve to death than eat it!
Zhang Xiaojuan clicked her tongue twice, "Miss, you're just someone who went straight to a chemical plant after graduating from school and never had to worry about food or drink."
"Let alone insect meat, I'll eat anything when I'm starving."
"Insect meat is at least high in protein, much better than what they eat—tree bark and grass roots. Do you think everyone can eat chicken, duck, beef, and pork like we do?"
The sandworms originally looked quite large, but after they were blown apart, bits of flesh scattered all over the ground.
But even so much meat couldn't withstand a group of people scrambling for it.
Several groups clashed while fighting over a piece of insect meat, and the fight escalated into a brawl.
Lu Sheng and the others didn't bother with it. After rescuing Wu Hainan and the others, they turned around and went back to the city.
During this time, a handsome young man in Wu Hainan's team kept looking around as if searching for something. Finally, Zhang Xiaojuan couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking for? Let me help you find it?"
The young man hesitated for a long time before finally blushing and asking in a low voice, "Where's Shi Nian? I haven't seen her."
"Who are you? You just arrived and you're already eyeing our Nianbao." Zhang Xiaojuan immediately transformed into a wary father, scrutinizing him.
“I am Pan Zhi! We met before at the Zhou Shan refugee camp!”
