Ha Chimu was standing with his back to Zhang Mu. After hearing Zhang Mu's voice, he reacted immediately.
Sure enough, in the next moment, a claw that was twice as large as the female rock dragon carp suddenly stretched out from Hachimu's right side and stabbed fiercely at his right rib.
If this claw hits the target, even Hachimu in his gigantic state will be in trouble.
Thanks to Zhang Mu's reminder, when Ha Chimu was about to completely chop the female rock dragon carp in half, he did not hesitate at all. He just split the giant claw that was blocking in front of him into two halves and then directly retracted the giant axe.
There was not enough time to retract the axe. Hachimu just had time to move the axe to the right side where the danger came from when the beast's claw attack had already hit him.
The male rock dragon carp moved extremely fast in the sand and dust, far faster than Zhang Mu who was running towards him.
The huge impact force directly knocked him back several steps. At this time, Zhang Mu had just arrived.
But after this attack, the huge beast claw immediately withdrew into the sand and dust.
At this time, the female rock dragon carp, dragging its claws that were broken into two pieces and only connected at the roots, took the opportunity to crawl quickly and dived into the spreading sand and dust.
The two men stood back to back, staring seriously at the dust that was gathering again. The energy that Hachimu had used to split the dust just now disappeared as he retracted his axe.
"Brother Zhang Mu, thank goodness you reminded me. What is this thing? Where are the others?"
Zhang Mu stared at the sandstorm that had become numb to him, and spoke slowly.
“Although its appearance has changed a lot, looking at the color and shape of its scales, it feels like a pangolin.”
"Pangolin? The degree of mutation is quite a bit. Brother Zhang Mu, you have a very good eye. I can't tell."
Although they didn't know whether the male rock dragon carp would attack again at that moment, there was no trace of tension on their faces.
After all, only two second-level mutant beasts have appeared so far, and one of them is very weak, almost at the peak of the first level.
"I didn't see or hear the others. Do you remember the position we chose to enter from? The distance between us was only three meters at most. At first I thought it was because the sand wall was too thick that I couldn't see you.
But the axe energy you just split was ten meters away from where I was, and I finally understood."
Zhang Mu pointed at the ground with his empty left sleeve and smiled faintly.
“Our position was separated by these beasts.
If it weren't for your attack, Brother Hachimu, I would have been ready to use my Blood Vine Lotus to force my way out."
Just as they were talking, suddenly a sharp roar of an animal was heard in the dust. This was the first time that Hachimu and his friends heard a roar of an animal that could drown out the dust, and they immediately looked around.
"It should be coming."
"Well, get ready."
Suddenly, the sandstorm began to gather rapidly, and the view at the location where Zhang Mu and Ha Chimu were gradually became clear.
I don’t know what the Rock Dragon Carp is planning. Now it has completely withdrawn the sandstorm that could cause them the greatest trouble.
When the sandstorm changed, the five people outside noticed something was wrong and became nervous again.
Seeing that Hachimu and others were exposed to his sight, Gesan put down his hand that was opening the lid of the wine jar.
Twelve minutes were up, and she was about to put down the green ivy and try to rescue them.
The sand and dust just now has gathered into a ball, with no gaps visible at all, and the density is extremely high.
Because Zhang Feng and Uncle Peng were fighting with their bare hands, they managed to catch a few rock dragon carps in the process. Together with Hachimu and the others, they walked back towards the direction of Gesan and the others.
Zhang Feng, who was holding a few rock dragon carp tails in one hand, had a bit of annoyance in his eyes. He threw the corpses on the ground and said.
"It was such a short distance, and I couldn't get out no matter how hard I tried. The dust couldn't stop me or blow me away. I just couldn't find a way out. I walked for ten minutes, and there was nothing but dust. I couldn't blast it away with fire. Wherever I blasted, the dust became thicker.
Although these little creatures are quite agile, I still managed to catch a few of them. Take a look."
The five people outside looked at the strange species on the ground that they had never seen before, and shook their heads at the same time, indicating that they had never seen this kind of mutant beast.
Uncle Peng, who was standing by, had a little bruise on his chest, his hair was messy, and he was covered in dust. He spat at the liquid that entered his mouth.
Sand said with a gloomy face.
“At first it was fine, the little things that attacked me couldn’t break my defense, but then a special one came and scratched my chest hard while I was on guard against the others.
If it weren't for the physical condition, the heart would have been taken out by it.
Then Chang Guang's water film was broken in a large area, and all the sand and dust poured in. The remaining water film protected the head, and the rest could not be protected at all, and it became what it is now."
.Looking at Uncle Peng shaking his shoes there, everyone suppressed their laughter and said nothing.
Yuanru was still the most attentive, she asked the four people who had returned in confusion.
"What about the other big brother?"
The smiles on everyone's faces froze in an instant, and they looked around, but apart from the largest area of dust that was still condensing, there was no sign of living people in the vast wilderness.
"Where's Liang Kuan?"
Hachimu's face looked very bad. He gasped and looked at the place covered with sand and dust.
Zhang Mu released his mental power and scanned the area. Suddenly, a metallic reaction came back.
He walked quickly towards that location, and there was a hint of silver faintly visible in the yellow sand, which he grabbed.
When Ha Chimu saw Zhang Mu's actions, his face suddenly turned completely dark.
"The gun is there, the man is there; the gun is gone, the man is gone."
Gesan said that he wanted to look for it in the yellow sand again, as he might be buried by it.
Zhang Mu walked back and handed the silver spear to Ha Chimu, shook his head and said.
"No need to look for it. I just used my mental power to scan the area and found no trace of a living person.
The only thing we haven’t checked is the dust created by those mutant beasts.”
But if it became like that, even if Liang Kuan was really inside, how could he possibly have a chance of survival?
Everyone's expressions were solemn. Their team had suffered casualties for the first time and had lost one tenth of their combat power. The loss was already severe.
At this moment, the dust that had been condensing finally stopped, attracting everyone's attention.
"First, let's get rid of this big guy in front of us. After that, if you can find Liang Kuan's body, take it back. If you can't find it, bury the silver spear.
Everyone, prepare to fight now!"
