Chapter 67 Desert Survival Day 9 (10) Night Patrol Monsters...
Although the ranking list is settled every 10 days, the actual settlement time is in the early morning of the tenth day, which is a few hours later. The countdown on the ranking list is also reminding the survivors to speed up at every moment.
Yu Miaomiao's exploration progress has been stuck at 3% for a long time, especially after dark, her exploration has slowed down significantly.
Although there is moonlight here, holding an umbrella at night will block out a lot of light, making the already dark adventure site even more eerie.
I wonder if the explorers would illuminate themselves and be seen by the monsters if they used their own lighting equipment.
There is too little information about the expedition site on the forum, and there may not be much in the future. After all, it concerns everyone's own interests.
She remembered that Ziren seemed to be able to make waist lamps, so she thought she could make one and bring it in next time she came.
Her body was already very tired, but she didn't want to give up so quickly. Whether she wanted to maintain her ranking or get more supplies, she had to hold on a little longer.
The process of searching for treasure chests and eggs was monotonous. Except for the occasional little fox that flashed by, the surroundings were quiet. During the day, with the sunlight, she thought the environment here was very beautiful. But at night, this silent environment slowly made her feel an inexplicable fear in her heart.
She could clearly see the fox next to her cracking the eggs, but she couldn't hear any sound. She could clearly see it licking the eggs with its tongue, but there was no sound either. She was momentarily confused and wondered if there was something wrong with her hearing.
The longer she stayed, the stronger her sense of unease developed. She couldn't understand why she watched a silent horror movie before, but now she was just like the people in the movie, not daring to make any sound and gradually becoming afraid of hearing any sound.
Fortunately, her actions could make sounds on the surrounding objects. Even if she only dared to make a little sound, she felt a little comforted. Otherwise, if she stayed in such an environment for a long time, she would probably go crazy.
The further she walked, the more afraid she became of the night patrol monsters that had not yet appeared, and she had no idea when they would appear.
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
After walking for half an hour, Yu Miaomiao finally walked out of the lush bush road, but there were two black patrolling ants coming towards her.
What came into view was another three-way intersection, and two ant monsters were patrolling from one of them.
The ant monster has a height and body shape close to that of an adult.
The whole body of the ant is black, with red antennae on its head and a pair of pincers on the top. The muscles of its two forelimbs and standing legs are very developed, and each has claws like sharp blades.
The ant monster has an oval-shaped abdomen behind it, with two rows of barbed spines on both sides of the abdomen.
The moment they touched Yu Miaomiao, their two tentacles immediately bent towards her, and the two pincers began to clamp in the air, making a "crunching" sound.
After being quiet for so long, she finally heard a sound. She didn't know why, but she didn't feel more scared. Instead, she felt relieved. At least she wasn't really in a horror movie.
These two ant monsters also held a spear in their hands, but they did not use shields to protect their bodies.
But looking at their body structure, I don't think so.
The shell of the ant monster is very hard. Ordinary stone and wooden weapons cannot penetrate it. Even bullets may not be able to penetrate it in one shot, so their bodies themselves are shields.
The way to kill them is to chop off the red head, because there is a short piece of connecting tissue without a hard shell at the connection between their head and body.
Yu Miaomiao was still holding the umbrella in one hand, and the other hand was tightly grasping the stone axe. She squatted down and immediately changed into light wind shoes.
Her current stamina was 25 points, so she didn't save it and drank half a bottle of energy drink, quickly raising her stamina to 50 points.
Yu Miaomiao only had 11 bullets left, and she was not sure how many shots would be enough to kill them. She was ready to fight the two with a stone axe, and she would run away in time if she was injured.
The two ant monsters could obviously sense Yu Miaomiao, a human, but under the cover of the umbrella, they couldn't see where she was.
The man and two ants were getting closer and closer, and Yu Miaomiao's heart, which had just relaxed a little, became tense again.
As the two ant monsters walked towards them, they were obviously walking slower and slower, and seemed to be more hesitant.
Did the snake and insect repellent I applied to my body work?
Ants are also insects, so we should be afraid of them too.
The snake and insect repellent potion says that it can repel snakes and insects, provided you don't provoke them.
If you touch the treasure chest that the guardian monsters are guarding, it is considered as provoking them. What about the patrol monsters?
That would interfere with their patrol missions.
The ant monster, which was obviously destined to die, still walked towards her even though it showed obvious resistance in its actions.
When the distance was less than one meter, the ant monster that was closer to Yu Miaomiao began to tremble in its hands and legs. It subconsciously wanted to retreat and even tried to retract its hands.
At this moment, Yu Miaomiao, who had been paying attention to their movements, swung the axe at the same time and chopped directly at the connection between the two heads.
When the stone axe in her hand hit the ant, she felt a large amount of mucus spurting out from the connection, sticking to her axe. The inertia of swinging the axe was immediately blocked by the mucus, and it stopped. The whole axe was stuck in half, and the ant's head was broken in half and hung crookedly.
Ant monsters can be set as patrol monsters, and their movements are far beyond those of ordinary monsters. When they sensed danger, the spear in the ant monster's hand was raised halfway at an extremely fast speed, but stopped as the head broke.
Yu Miaomiao was caught off guard by the spear tip, which pierced a small bloody hole in her thigh. She didn't bother to take the axe and turned around and ran away without hesitation.
At the same moment, another ant monster had noticed the sound coming from the side and the abnormality of its companion, and began to turn its body quickly, raising its abdomen behind it, forming a horizontal sweeping attack, while continuously stabbing around with its gun.
From a distance, it looked like a spiky top, spinning non-stop, and there was no chance for her to get close.
The pop-up window of "Integrity is the basis" appeared in her field of vision again, which was really annoying. Yu Miaomiao clicked to reject it and prepared to chat with him privately later to prevent him from sending another application while she was fighting.
Yu Miaomiao stood at the exit of the path they had just walked, took out the gun from his backpack, and could only kill it with a shotgun.
But facing a spinning 'gyroscope' ant monster, and with an umbrella stuck around its neck and unable to aim the scope, can she hit it?
After hesitating for half a minute, she simply dropped her umbrella and got into position to shoot.
The ant monster, which was still spinning, immediately discovered Yu Miaomiao's position with the help of the moonlight. It walked towards her with a spear in hand, but its movements were a little slow and it still had a natural resistance to approaching her.
I want you to come over here!
Yu Miaomiao aimed at the lower part of his head and shot him.
"Bang."
The sound of gunfire rang out in the silent night.
The ant monster, which was shot in the head, was only slightly injured and did not affect its continued movement. If it were not for the disgusting smell coming from the human opposite, it would probably rush over angrily, but now it only dared to approach slowly.
"Bang."
Sure enough, the shotgun couldn't kill it with one shot. Yu Miaomiao shot it again, and the bullet scratched a huge hole in the lower left corner of its head, and drops of mucus were flowing down.
The ant monster is still approaching, and the tip of its spear is pointing directly at Yu Miaomiao's body. Should she run away?
She definitely didn't dare to expose her back. Should she leave the expedition? She still wanted to continue, and she hadn't tricked those two people in yet.
"Bang."
The third shot was fired again and finally hit the connection of its head. A hole could be seen in the middle of the soft tissue, but it did not stop yet. It just seemed that it had lost the strength to hold the gun. The spear just fell to the ground, and the gun body slipped out of the ant monster's hand and disappeared immediately.
Yu Miaomiao took out a construction hammer, gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and swung it hard at the crumbling ant head.
It must have been the help of the functional drink, as she swung the hammer with such force that she smashed its entire head off. The ant monster fell backwards to the ground due to the inertia.
The first ant monster that was killed turned into dust and disappeared. The ants in front of him were also slowly turning into ashes. At the same time, a small bag fell to the ground.
When Yu Miaomiao puts it into the backpack, it turns into two pieces of slime. There is a chance that something will drop when you kill the patrolling monster.
The wound on her leg was still bleeding, so she took out a bandage to bandage herself, while using her mind to find the post that Chengxinweiben had posted before.
The post was full of messages cursing him. How could he have the guts to rashly apply to enter someone else's adventure site? He must have a lot of powerful weapons in his hands.
Yu Miaomiao sent a private message.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Do you want to enter the adventure zone?"
"Integrity is the foundation: Yes, the exploration site I applied for is owned by you now. I've applied several times before, I don't know if you've seen it. I'm willing to provide exploration strategies, maps, and weapons as long as you're willing to let me in."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Do you remember that you lied to me before?"
When he saw his ID, he wondered how anyone could be so bold as to want to come in so openly.
The other party did not respond immediately. Yu Miaomiao treated the wound on his body and decided to move forward.
There will be several forks in the road after this. The forks here do not distinguish between main roads and branch roads, but only wrong turns and main roads.
If you go the wrong way, just come back. If you go the wrong way, there will be a fixed treasure chest on the way.
Time is running out, and it's late at night, so the information isn't very clear. She has to stop collecting data here for now. She has to speed up and increase the 3% to 4%.
Fortunately, each fork in the road was not long. She left marks along the way and recorded the information of the forks with lipstick. When she came across some special points, such as three cacti at a fork in the road, she would post it in the group chat.
Halfway through her journey, she received a reply that would return her money in good faith.
"Integrity is the foundation: I'm truly sorry. I did some bad things in the past just to survive, but it wasn't my intention. If I hadn't suddenly arrived in this cannibalistic apocalypse, I really wouldn't want to deceive anyone."
Seeing him say this, Yu Miaomiao smiled.
I guess this person has forgotten how to lie to her. He has lied to her so many times that he can only use this kind of unified rhetoric to deal with her.
"Meow Meow: So you think I was deceived by you and still let you in?"
After replying, Yu Miaomiao continued on her journey to catch up on her progress.
It was almost 8 o'clock, and she didn't know what the normal mode would be like after 12 o'clock. She didn't want to fall into a pile of monsters or some sandstorm as soon as she went back, so she had to go back to the cabin in advance to prepare.
After walking through five forks in the road, she finally saw the real oasis.
