Chapter 84: I’ve Manipulated Bugs, Think I’m Afraid Of You?
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Heavier blows echoed in the air, the iron gate had begun to visibly reshape, revealing a trace of crack.
Seeing such a huge impact, Su Mo did not hesitate anymore.
He backhandedly took out the electric crossbow and aimed it at the iron door that had not been completely crashed open.
"What the hell is this? Such a strong force, plus it can create such great impact in a short time!"
Beside him, Oreo was already baring her teeth. But the enemy was in the dark, she did not dare to dash forward to find out the situation.
Moo!
A low moo vibrated in the air and the sound transmitted into Su Mo’s eardrum.
In the next second, one last impact had made the iron gate burst open, turning into small pieces of iron, scattering around like snowflakes.
Whoosh!
Without seeing what the hell was coming out of it, Su Mo pulled the trigger without a word.
Like a hummingbird, the explosive crossbow arrow that contained picric acid soared toward the swelling bulge.
Boom!
Hitting the unknown creature, there was a louder explosion than before, and dust from the ground was blown by the detonation wave, scattering and levitating around the room.
The dazzling fire instantly brightened the inside of the farming hut, and a shadowed figure rushed out from the fire.
It was targeting Su Mo who stood next to the soil wall!
At this moment, Su Mo finally saw the monster clearly with the help of light that ignited the room.
It was a creature that looked similar to a cattle from the earth. At the side of the weird creature’s ears, there were two broken horns.
Blood was splattering out from the horns, but that did not affect its lethality in the least.
Facing the monster that was aiming at him, Su Mo shot another arrow. At the same time, he turned his back and did a forward somersault to a distance.
The crossbow arrow made direct contact with the bizarre cattle. The impact created while somersaulting was so huge that Su Mo did not bother to care about the situation behind him.
The impact of the detonation was like a pair of invisible big hands that hurled him forward.
Falling to the ground, Su Mo immediately turned and looked around, and his scalp instantly felt numb.
This arrow might have fatally hit the head of the monster. Before this, the horns on the head were already broken. This time, half of its head had been blown out by the explosive crossbow.
Its brain pulp was like black magma, rolling and dripping along the half of its head that was blown away.
The four legs of the strange cattle were like pillars, its limbs were still embedded in the soil, motionless even with its skull blown out.
Looking at this gory scene, Su Mo was filled with nausea.
But this view of the bizarre cattle did not affect Su Mo’s speed at pulling the trigger.
Another explosive crossbow arrow was shot. This time, under the scope, the arrow got into the remaining half of the monster’s head.
Another explosion wave emerged, and Su Mo quickly averted his eyes. After the explosion, he looked back.
The explosion of the picric acid blew up the entire head of the peculiar creature, and it was evidently impossible for it to survive.
"What a ferocious thing. If I met this beast the last time, I’m afraid I wouldn’t return alive."
Startled, Su Mo had once again taken out three explosive crossbow arrows and stuffed them into the electric crossbow.
The fire caused by the explosion of picric acid was still viciously burning in the room.
Black smoke gushed out from the broken door and to the sky, looking like a smoke signal.
"We must search quickly, otherwise these houses will be burned down when the fire spreads!"
Standing up, Su Mo put the crossbow back into the storage space and walked quickly to the nearest room.
He took out the ax and smashed the seemingly "safe" wooden door a few times. Kicking the broken wooden door open, and the sight attracted Su Mo’s eyes.
"It’s… a TV again?"
Compared to the TV with a big butt in the shelter, this TV was higher-end.
At a glance, it was a new LCD TV.
Although the table near the window was not huge, there were obvious traces of items being moved or taken, and there
Compared to the previous house, the bedding of this one was better, and there was no trace of mold.
"Sure enough, the degree of risks and gains are proportional!"
Su Mo could not control the smile on his face, and began to collect the spoils.
He carefully removed the wall-mounted TV that was hanging on the wall by carefully unfastening the screws at the back. Su Mo unloaded it and put it on the table.
Su Mo collected the bedding from the bed and spread it out, then he gathered all the items on the table into the bedding.
Holding up the bedding in one hand and the TV in the other, Su Mo walked out the door boldly and put everything on the ground.
There were three more rooms, and the fire was getting fiercer.
There was no time to delay. Just as Su Mo axed the second wooden door open and was about to enter, Oreo’s anxious barks sounded.
Instinctively, Su Mo summoned the iron spear at once and held it in his hand. He looked in Oreo’s direction.
At a glance, Su Mo’s heart suddenly became cold…
A lion?
Or a Tibetan mastiff?
Fuzzy fur was like a wreath shrouding the neck of the creature. If it was not for its hideous and terrifying face, it would look like a blooming sunflower.
"Hey dude, if I said I just came to take… came to put out the fire, would you believe it?"
Without batting an eyelid, Su Mo stepped back twice and quietly approached the soil wall.
The large monster stood at the broken gap and looked at Su Mo quietly.
Unlike the monsters who have lost their intellect, this monster seemed to have retained a trace of sanity. It was tilting its head and scrutinizing Su Mo.
Oreo had jumped onto the wall cleverly, a little faster than Su Mo’s movements, and had been barking at the monster.
"You… are… human… are you… here… to bring me along with you?"
Su Mo, who was already standing under the dirt wall, suddenly heard the voice of the monster. It gave him goosebumps instantly.
The voice was as harsh as the sounds of metal scraping. Especially the stuttering at the beginning, it was like the ravings of a hungry hell ghost.
"Yes, I’m here to pick you up, let’s go together!"
Su Mo tried to respond, but at the same time, he did not relax his vigilance. He was ready to escape at any time.
Even if he was told that the monster had driven here today, Su Mo would not be surprised, let alone if it spoke.
Since entering this ruin, there had been a sense of strangeness everywhere.
Illogical attributes, a black dog that could fight back even with a broken spine, a strange cattle that did not perceive pain, and a Tibetan mastiff that looked like it was in the cosplay of a dark Simba.
After hearing Su Mo’s words, the Tibetan mastiff seemed to stop and went into thinking. It looked at Su Mo carefully, contemplating.
However…
In the next second, the intuitiveness in the Tibetan mastiff’s eyes gradually became lesser, and traces of violence seemed to gush out like water.
"All of you… abandoned… all should die!!!"
"Damn all of you!!!"
After it finished speaking, the Tibetan mastiff completely lost all rationale and charged inside along the gap, targeting Su Mo!
"Oreo, run! Retreat! Don’t turn back!"
The next moment, Su Mo immediately retracted the fine iron electric spear in his hand, jumped onto the earth wall, climbing up as he yelled.
With the aid of acceleration from the electric shoes, this wall was not a problem at all. Su Mo climbed up with two stomps.
He turned around and looked.
The LCD TV placed in the middle of the courtyard had been smashed by the Tibetan mastiff, and there were glass shards everywhere.
"Crap, my TV, damn you!"
No time to be distressed about it at that moment, Su Mo climbed down the wall and had no choice but to quickly dart inside.
"The distance between us must be pulled away, otherwise my arrows are useless at all, as to close combatting… who would have fought this thing before!"
Impulsively, Su Mo could not care what would happen next.
He stomped on another wall twice, then he landed on the wall of the next courtyard.
The Tibetan mastiff behind him was already catching up like an arrow from a bowstring. It was close. Before Su Mo even climbed up the wall, it slammed its head against the wall.
However, this seemingly fragile soil wall was not knocked down. Instead, the Tibetan mastiff was bounced back.
"Huh?"
"Woof?"
Mounted on the top of the wall, Su Mo watched in surprise as the Tibetan mastiff was bounced to the ground by the seemingly unsolid wall. It fell into a squat.
Without waiting for Su Mo to react, the Tibetan mastiff attacked once more, but it bounced away again.
This time Su Mo saw it.
An invisible layer of light covered the surface of the wall. When the Tibetan mastiff struck it, the light film quickly hardened and turned into an illuminated wall.
On the wall, there were two neat lines of words written on it:
"Zheng Xuefeng, take good care of your dog. My baby is still small, don’t scare him…"
"Okay, okay, I’ll leash it well next time!"
Every time the Tibetan mastiff hit the wall, the two neat and graceful lines of Chinese words would glow, blocking the creature out from the wall.
It seemed to know that there was nothing it could do about Su Mo, the Tibetan mastiff had stopped moving. Its eyes shone with savage fierceness, it crouched on the ground and stopped advancing!
"Well, you old thing, I’ve manipulated an upsurge of bugs, think I’m afraid of you?"
Seeing the Tibetan mastiff’s defeated look, Su Mo who was mounting on the wall roared with laughter. He pulled out the electric crossbow from the storage space.
Along the wall, Su Mo moved forward carefully, trying to get as far as possible from the Tibetan mastiff.
Regrettably, the beast was very clever as well. It kept a four-meter distance between Su Mo constantly.
When Su Mo moved, the Tibetan mastiff followed suit.
The scope to shoot the explosive crossbow was not achieved.
"All right all right, you think you’re probing a loophole with me?"
Su Mo ejected the five explosive crossbow arrows and replaced them with five ordinary arrows produced by the game panel. He then raised the crossbow and shot.
Whoosh!
An all-iron arrow was discharged!
