Chapter 201 Luckily, he was knocked unconscious.
Then you see rocks crashing down heavily onto the pangolin's massive body, followed by a bloodcurdling scream—it's been hit!
Zuo Shan had never actually witnessed the true abilities of a power-type superhuman. She was just trying her luck, hoping to use Song Bo's power to move this boulder.
After all, with their thin arms and legs, even if they worked together, they might not be able to move this boulder that weighed at least a ton.
However, Song Bo is a strength-based character. While his fists might not be able to kill the pangolin, as long as he can move the boulder and knows in advance that it will roll down, he should be able to dodge the boulder's attack, given his skills as a mercenary.
Since pangolins are too big and the attack was sudden, they would inevitably be unable to dodge the rocks, so at the very least, they would be crushed half to death, right?
This risky move is indeed too risky, but we can't just do nothing and hide here to wait for death.
The pangolin was indeed not dead. Continuous roars came from under the rocks. Song Bo said nervously, "It's not dead. It will soon be able to crawl out a passage and leave. This thing holds a grudge. We have to find a way to kill it, otherwise it will keep chasing us."
Zuo Shan hurriedly called on everyone to cut down nearby plants, pile them around the rocks, and have Pan Duole light them with his supernatural fire before stuffing them into the gaps.
The roars grew weaker and weaker, indicating that the pangolin had been knocked unconscious by the thick smoke. Zuo Shan had Song Bo pull the metal chain and move the rocks aside, where they found the pangolin, its flesh mangled and motionless.
The rocks came suddenly, and the creature didn't have time to curl into a ball. Although its flat scales were quite defensive, they couldn't withstand the weight of the large rock, which weighed over a ton, as it crashed down with the added speed of its tumbling descent.
So many of its scales were broken off and embedded in its flesh. The harder the scales were, the more they pierced the flesh, so badly that it was too badly injured to even have the strength to burrow underground and escape.
Song Bo forcefully flipped it over, exposing its relatively soft belly, and then used a large cleaver to make a deep cut, directly disemboweling it.
The pangolin was awakened by the pain, let out a low growl, and instinctively tried to curl up into a ball.
Before it could curl up, Zuo Shan quickly finished it off with a sharp dagger, piercing its heart.
It finally stopped struggling and died.
"Miss Zuo, no, from now on you are my great-aunt! If it weren't for you today, I probably would have lost my life here!" Song Bo, having survived the ordeal, sat on the ground panting.
"There must have been quite a few deaths over there, right?" Zuo Shan asked with a grave expression.
"That's right, it's all our fault for being incompetent and unable to protect everyone!" Song Bo lowered his head, his face full of shame.
"It was an accident, not your fault," Zuo Shan comforted him.
With so many people going to encircle and suppress them, and these pangolins even managing to burrow out from underground, how can these two strength-type characters possibly deal with this terrifying beast?
Just then, Song Bo's wristwatch rang. He quickly answered it, and Kang Zhenghao's roar came through: "Damn it, we just wiped out a dozen or so, and we were just about to catch our breath when we saw your message. How's it going on your end?"
"Vice Commander, please bring people over to save us! At least three pangolins have crawled out here, and many of the mercenaries' families didn't escape, sob sob sob!" Song Bo finally found his pillar of support and couldn't help but cry.
"What?! Three? You're still breathing, thank goodness! Find a safe place to hide and wait for us!" Kang Zhenghao said decisively.
"Yes, sir!" Song Bo perked up immediately upon receiving the order.
“Miss Zuo, where do you plan to hide? I’ll go with you!” Song Bo said.
"We'll go wherever we can avoid pangolins," Zuo Shan said.
"To tell you the truth, pangolins are very versatile. Besides having a keen sense of smell, they can burrow into mountains, climb trees, and are excellent swimmers. There's nowhere they can't go," Song Bo said with difficulty.
If there were any place where he could escape its pursuit, he wouldn't have been chased to the point of near death.
“Alright, since it has a keen sense of smell, it must be using that to track people’s scent. So let’s find a plant with a strong scent to mask our own scent. That should be relatively safer,” Zuo Shan said.
“Hmm, that’s a good method! Two years ago, when our mercenary group was patrolling Collection Point 99, I found a patch of mutated mint. I even marked it at the time, and it seems to be around here.” Song Bo said, opening his wristwatch and finding the marked location.
Fortunately, that place wasn't too far from where they were now, only about a kilometer away.
So Zuo Shan and the others followed him and ran towards that place.
This is a large patch of mutated mint; you can smell its pungent, cool aroma from dozens of meters away.
Zuo Shan was overjoyed to smell this odor. Even with her ordinary human sense of smell, it was pungent. Pangolins, with their extremely sensitive sense of smell, would definitely not be able to withstand the stimulation of this odor. In this way, they were temporarily safe.
