The moment Lin Yiran stepped off the mecha, she saw the giant sand worm turn around and rush towards her.
She simply jumped to the other side to prevent it from attacking her military academy students. Sure enough, with Lin Yiran as its target, it didn't even glance at the other students and chased after Lin Yiran the whole time. It even ignored Jin Shuo when he ran up to it and provoked it.
Lin continued to spin and leap through the desert, dodging the giant sand worm's attacks.
When she arrived at a sandy grassland, she witnessed firsthand the power of the giant sandworm's venom.
The moment the giant sandworm sprays its venom, it lands on the tumbleweed below. Any tumbleweed that comes into contact with the venom, even just a tiny bit, will begin to rot from the roots.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of tumbleweeds died.
Lin Yiran then realized how terrifying this giant sand worm was.
This venom is so potent that it could instantly turn anyone who gets it into a pile of flesh and blood.
If only we could collect them, but it's a pity we don't know what metal could withstand the sandworm's venom. For now, let's kill this big guy first. Looking up at the sky, the teachers haven't arrived yet. Sen Qi'an is shouting from below, saying the teachers will be there in about five minutes.
She could hold out for five minutes, but...?
She suddenly wanted to give it a try.
Let's see if I can kill this big guy!
So she took out all the dozen or so knives she had been given, hovered them around herself, and then stood still.
She waited for the sandworm to come and devour it, at which point she could manipulate the knife handle to enter its belly and disrupt its internal organs.
This method might actually work, Sen Qi'an thought, and grabbed Jin Shuo who was about to step forward.
"Let's wait and see. I think her method is feasible. Let's not go and join in the fun, or we'll just cause him more trouble later."
Jin Shuo: …………“Am I causing her trouble?”
Sen Qi'an looked at him with a "What else?" look.
Jin Shuo was speechless. Then Sen Qi'an explained, "We didn't think of that before. Since she can manipulate metal, she should be able to manipulate it through the sandworm's belly, right? As long as we can mess up the sandworm's internal organs, it will feel pain and we can take the opportunity to kill it! Let's let her try."
Jin Shuo: "That sandworm's belly is full of venom. That thing is so corrosive that it can melt a knife into nothingness. What did she use to stir it? Her hands?"
Sen Qi'an clicked his tongue.
"It's terrible to be uncultured." This was clearly a sarcastic remark, which infuriated Jin Shuo. He turned around and was about to fight Sen Qi'an. Although he was his commander, now that commander was just as useless as him, only able to watch Lin Yiran fight alone, he felt no remorse.
Everyone is equal.
"Since we're all equal, what gives you the right to criticize me?" Jin Shuo's temper flared.
Sen Qi'an: "Read more books, child? Octopuses store their ink in their ink sacs, and human gastric juices are stored in their stomachs. Such powerful corrosive and digestive fluids usually have an organ to restrain them and protect other organs. Otherwise, such a powerful thing would eventually corrode the sandworm's internal organs, and how could it survive?"
Jin Shuo: "You mean that sandworms also have an organ in their bodies that stores venom?"
Sen Qi'an: "That's right. If Lin Yiran can manipulate those knives to avoid the venom and enter the sand worm's body, then things will be much easier. We'll wait for the right moment, and when Lin Yiran makes her move, the two of us will go up and crush the sand worm's core!"
Jin Shuo nodded.
Next, it was Lin Yiran's turn. She stood still, waiting for the giant sand worm to open its mouth, and then, the instant it opened its mouth, she inserted the knife into its body.
Unfortunately, this thing starts spitting venom as soon as it opens its mouth. I don't know how it can produce so much venom; it just can't seem to stop spraying.
Lin Yiran was worried about her knife, so she dodged for a moment when the venom was sprayed out, then jumped to the side to continue looking for an opportunity.
After several rounds of probing, Lin Yiran finally managed to slip the knife into the giant sand worm's body, sliding it down its throat. Although the worm spat out venom at this moment, fortunately, Lin Yiran's positioning was clever, and she only lost a knife.
Five more knives ended up inside the sandworm's body.
Through the thick barrier of the sandworms, Lin Yiran began to carefully sense her metal blade. Sen Qi'an and Jin Shuo were also on high alert, waiting for the next burst of power. The people around them watched this scene in shock, both expectant and afraid.
Finally, with a flick of Lin Yiran's wrist, the sand worm, which had been standing upright, suddenly began to writhe on the ground as if it had gone mad, its body snaking like an earthworm.
And because of its enormous size, when it rolled on the sand, the people present felt as if an earthquake had struck, and the entire sand trembled so violently that they could hardly stand.
Not to mention the sandstorms they stirred up, which certainly made things difficult for them.
Sen Qi'an's first order was for all military academy students to immediately retreat and run backward, making sure to get as far away from the crazed sandworm as possible.
They immediately drove their mechs up to help Lin Yiran.
Lin Yiran continued to manipulate the throwing knives, stirring them inside the sandworm's belly, turning its internal organs into a bloody mess. The internal organs are the most vulnerable parts; regardless of whether the worm has mutated or not, what lies hidden inside is always the most delicate. So, very quickly, under Lin Yiran's ruthless hands, those internal organs turned into a pool of bloody, mangled mud.
However, she herself wasn't doing much better.
The sonic attack emitted by the sandworm's roar caused blood to flow from her ears again, and she could faintly taste a metallic sweetness in her throat.
She was holding on with all her might. If interstellar medicine hadn't been so good, Lin Yiran felt that she would have definitely run away by now, risking her life.
But this is interstellar space, after all. Medical technology is advanced; if your eardrum ruptures, you can just repair it.
So what are you still afraid of?
Just one word: Let's do it!
Although she couldn't tell which way to go, Lin Yiran still changed her position every few seconds to avoid being targeted by the sand worm. But then, for some reason, she suddenly felt that the sand worm in front of her stopped moving.
And it was completely silent?
Lin Yiran cautiously shifted her position and continued peering into the swirling sandstorm. Unfortunately, she couldn't make out anything.
But what happens next?
A hollow black hole suddenly emerged from the swirling sand and dust, heading straight for Lin Yiran's location!
