Chapter 69: Quickly Transmigrate! Fate of the Ice Star (Twenty-One)
"Don't worry about so much for now, saving people is the most important thing!" Shu Yang made a prompt decision. Now is not the time to investigate the source of the sound. Rescuing Feng Ziang is the top priority.
The crowd did not dare to delay and sped up the speed of clearing the rubble. Finally, after some effort, Feng Ziang crawled out of the pile of rocks. Except for some damage to his clothes, he was not injured.
"Are you okay?" Shu Yang hurried forward to check on Feng Ziang's condition.
"I'm fine." Feng Ziang patted the dust off his body, looked up at the deep crack, and frowned, "That sound just now..."
"Let's not talk about it for now, let's get out of here!" Shu Yang's uneasy feeling became stronger and stronger. He had a hunch that the roar just now was definitely not a good sign.
However, before they could do anything, the creepy roar rang out again. This time, the sound was clearer and closer, as if it was right above their heads!
"Oh no! It seems to be coming towards us!" Researcher Ma exclaimed, with a slight tremor in his voice.
Shu Yang's face changed, and he immediately said: "Everyone, retreat immediately!"
Without hesitation, everyone turned around and ran out of the cave. However, the originally narrow passage was now mostly blocked by fallen rocks, and everyone could only climb through the rubble with difficulty, which greatly reduced their speed.
At this moment, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up in the depths of the cave. The eyes were huge, flashing with cold and cruel light, which made people shudder.
"Hurry up! It's coming!" Shu Yang's voice was filled with anxiety and fear.
However, it was too late...
With a roar that shook the earth, a huge creature rushed out from the depths of the cave. It was covered with thick scales, had a hideous face, opened its bloody mouth, and let out a deafening roar, like a demon crawling out of hell...
After a loud tremor that shook the earth, a huge creature rushed out from the depths of the cave. It was covered with thick blue-gray scales, and it glowed coldly in the dim light. Its face was ferocious, and it opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and let out a deafening roar, like a demon crawling out of hell.
"Get out of the way!" Feng Ziang pushed away Technician Zhou who was still standing there in a daze, but he almost fell down due to inertia. The monster seemed to have targeted Feng Ziang and swooped down at him. Feng Ziang barely dodged it, but his heart was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of his chest.
"Everyone, retreat!" Shu Yang pulled out the laser gun he carried with him and fired several shots at the monster, trying to stop its attack. However, the laser beam hit the monster's thick armor, only sparking a few sparks, and could not cause any substantial damage.
The monster was enraged and roared even more violently. It was huge in size but moved very agilely, rushing through the narrow passage, blocking everyone's way.
"I'll hold it back, you guys go quickly!" Feng Ziang acted decisively. He knew that in this situation, only by delaying time as much as possible could he buy a glimmer of hope for others.
"No, it's too dangerous!" Researcher Ma shouted anxiously.
"Listen to him, let's go!" Shu Yang grabbed Researcher Ma's hand, his eyes firm, "Trust him!"
Feng Ziang took a deep breath and rushed towards the monster. He used his agility to dodge in the gaps between the monster's attacks, attracting its attention. The monster was angered by Feng Ziang and gave up chasing others, instead concentrating its firepower on attacking him alone.
"This way!" Guide Wu was familiar with the terrain. He led everyone through the intricate passages, looking for a place to hide.
"There's a fork in the road ahead, let's go from there!" Officer Sun An shouted, pointing ahead.
Everyone tried their best to run towards the fork in the road. At this moment, the monster suddenly changed direction and swooped towards Shu Yang and others.
"Be careful!" Feng Ziang's eyes were bloodshot. He sprinted with all his strength and knocked Shu Yang to the ground, barely avoiding the monster's fatal blow.
"How are you?" Shu Yang asked anxiously, regardless of his shock.
"I'm fine..." Feng Ziang was about to get up, but his face suddenly changed, "Oh no, it..."
Before he could finish, the monster approached again, opening its bloody mouth and heading towards them...
A fishy smell hit them in the face, the monster's fangs were within reach, and the shadow of death loomed in Shu Yang and Feng Ziang's hearts.
At the critical moment, Guide Wu suddenly shouted: "Its eyes! Attack its eyes!"
It turns out that Guide Wu, who has been leading scientific expeditions on the icy planet for many years, is familiar with the habits of local creatures. He knows that vision is often a weakness of creatures living in dark caves.
Shu Yang and Feng Ziang looked at each other and immediately understood what he meant. Feng Ziang hugged Shu Yang and rolled to the side, barely avoiding the monster's bloody mouth. Shu Yang quickly stood up, raised the laser gun and aimed at the monster's eyes.
"Bang!"
A dazzling laser beam accurately hit the monster's left eye. The monster let out a deafening scream, swung its head wildly, and rushed forward in the narrow passage with its huge body.
"Now!" Director Wu shouted.
Without hesitation, everyone raised their weapons and aimed at the monster's eyes to attack. Laser beams, electromagnetic pulses, high-explosive grenades... Various attack methods were used in turn, interweaving into a dazzling light and shadow in the dark cave.
The monster's wailing became weaker and weaker, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Successful?" Researcher Ma covered his mouth in disbelief.
"It's not over yet!" the experienced officer Sun An reminded, "It may have companions!"
At this moment, there was a rustling sound coming from deep in the passage, as if something was approaching.
"Oh no, there are more!" Technician Zhou pointed forward with a pale face.
"Prepare for battle!" Shu Yang ordered decisively, and turned to look at Technician Zhou, "How is the equipment?"
"Part of the communication and lighting equipment has been repaired!" Technician Zhou said with a hint of excitement, "We can contact the base and ask for support!"
"Good job!" Shu Yang nodded approvingly, "Everyone, don't panic, stand back to back and cover each other!"
Everyone quickly formed a circle and looked into the depths of the passage with vigilance. Voices from the base came through the communicator, bringing them a glimmer of hope.
Suddenly, Officer Sun groaned, covered his arm and staggered back.
"Grandson, what's wrong with you?" Director Wu exclaimed.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine..." Officer Sun's face turned pale, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, "Hurry... get ready for battle..."
