Wang Qi and Li Xiang took action again.
When we set off from Building 2 and arrived at the hunting ground, we hadn't seen any reptiles yet, but we unexpectedly encountered a mummy monster first!
This was the second time he saw the mummy monster at night. He had seen traces of the mummy monster several times in previous searches, but he had missed them all.
When they met, the mummy monster was at the end of the alley, and Wang Qi was in the middle of the alley.
Both sides stood still and observed each other from a distance.
The bone blade on the elbow of the mummy monster's left arm is missing a section. It seems to be the same one from last time. Wang Qi is not sure because the broken part seemed to be larger when he saw it last time. Can this thing grow back?
And all four praying mantises can run away. Isn’t it too powerful? I hope it’s another one.
The mummy monster at the end of the alley thought it was edible after weighing it, and was about to take action when he saw the little man opposite making a move.
Wang Qi nodded himself and pointed behind him with his thumb, meaning "I'm going this way."
The mummy monster was stunned for a moment, then decided to eat it and moved forward.
Wang Qi frowned, turned around and gestured to Li Xiang.
Li Xiang got into the entrance of the building next to him and responded with a crossbow.
Because of her height, she couldn't carry the crossbow on her back while moving in the snow, so she had to carry it the whole way. She only gradually adapted to it after adding more points in the past few days.
Wang Qi held the fire ax with both hands, lowered his center of gravity and waited for the mummy monster to come over.
There was no problem with the judgment of the mummy monster's intelligence. Seeing this battle, the mummy monster took a few steps forward and did not start running. Instead, it stopped, stared for a while, and turned away without knowing what to think.
Its behavior troubled Wang Qi.
This thing is more than two meters tall and nearly four meters long from head to tail. Even if a human holds an axe, it shouldn't be a particularly big threat in its eyes. The reason for running away is either "this little meat is not worth the risk of injury", or "since it is a nocturnal ghost, let it go".
Mummy monsters have the intelligence to "select the fighting environment", so it should be easy to understand that "human beings cannot go out at night without lighting a torch". To distinguish between nocturnal ghosts requires other abilities such as smell and recognition of human faces.
I always feel that "the night ghost and the mummy monster jointly cause a catastrophe" is a little more realistic.
He also turned around and saw Li Xiang's little face. He patted her arm and whispered, "Don't be so nervous. We are very capable."
After the interlude, the man and the mummy monster moved in opposite directions, and no sound of the mantis monster flying was heard in the distance.
The two walked through the explored part and barely managed to find a reptile before calling it a day.
Didn't do anything, just recorded the location and came back in the evening.
This time, their target was the Mantis monster. Even if the attributes seemed to be high enough, they had to ensure that they could start the fight in the best condition. It had been ten hours since they left Building 2, and the flexibility of their legs had been somewhat reduced due to the snow. It's better to endure it for one round.
As the day passed and night came again, new traces of human activities were discovered on the road.
The reason for discovering the situation was that the other party had tried to track Wang Qi and Li Xiang, but they probably retreated because they were too far away. As you follow it, you see more tracks until you see the sleigh.
Li wanted to use the sled for fortification and was on guard with a crossbow. Wang Qi came closer to check.
The camping point and Wang Qi's movement route are separated by an alleyway of more than 100 meters. The edge of the hunting ground 300 meters around the gymnasium is less than 300 meters away. The location is quite dangerous.
There were three sleighs downstairs, and the tracks were very messy. The number of people was estimated to be six to ten. Wang Qi heard someone snoring downstairs. It was the human survivors who did not run away.
Since they are humans, it is easier to understand that they live so close to the reptile nest, because the daylight hours are too short and there is no extra time for them to waste on the road. They must camp as close as possible to squeeze out two or three hours. Used for searching and hunting.
But there will be anomalies in the southwest in two days. Will two days be enough to go back?
Without disturbing their sleep, they confirmed the situation and continued southbound with Li Xiang.
Arriving at the spot where the crawler was found yesterday, it had moved a little but was still in the same house.
Let Li Xiang keep an eye on him while Wang Qi went to the surrounding area to find a suitable fighting point.
There are several requirements.
The main entrance is big enough for the mantis monster to enter easily. If not, look for a window with big enough windows.
The other requirement is more stringent, the space is large enough, and it must be complex enough, but not too big.
You need a circular movement line that is large enough for the mantis monster to pass... The possibility is not high, because the circular movement line often has to pass through a room with two doors. For example, the last stairwell had two sides behind the stairs. People can pass through the open utility room, but the mantis monster cannot.
The next best thing is that the area where the mantis breaks out is large enough. If it is too spacious, it will be dangerous if a second mantis that may be present breaks in at the same time.
After searching around, he was not satisfied, so he signaled to Li Xiang: Take action and kill.
Li Xiang looked slightly surprised, placed the crossbow against the wall, and carried the steel bar to deal with the insects.
The reptile that survived for one more day still did not escape the fate of being turned into food, and was killed by Li Xiang's vicious hands.
I kept looking, and with good luck, I found one in the alley next door, and its location was very suitable for a battle location.
This is a private kindergarten. There is a small slide in the small yard. It is a three-story building that barely occupies an area of 150 square meters. Because the larger space is used by children, a little cleaning can create a suitable environment of.
He gestured to Li Xiang to find his fighting position, and he went up to find excitement and actively asked the reptile to sound the alarm.
Li Xiang's main task is to observe and find a narrow space that the mantis monster cannot pass through.
The abdomen of the mantis monster has a certain degree of flexibility. Wang Qi believes that it can actually fit itself into an ordinary entrance door (width 70 to 80 centimeters), so the hiding place needs to be narrower. For example, the width of the doors of bathrooms and utility rooms is often smaller.
However, after analyzing the specific situation, if a space has two doors leading to the corridor to form a circular movement line, there is no need to hide in a small space to measure whether the mantis's sickle is long enough. Similar movement lines are more common in office and public buildings. Many, such as kindergarten.
Wang Qi gave Li Xiang a small lesson on these safety rules at the base, so he should be able to remember them.
At the scene, Wang Qi held a steel bar with one hand to poke the reptile. When it rushed forward, he pushed it back and gave way when it took off. Anyway, the reptile with almost zero athletic ability posed no threat to him.
Seeing that the reptile never used its tail whistle, Wang Qi put a little heavy hand and pierced a hole in its abdomen from the side, which was not deep.
After pricking, get out of the way to prevent the reptile from running out of brain circuits.
This trick worked, and soon a "dah-dah" sound like electrical noise came from the tail whistle.
When the sound was finished playing, Wang Qi was not polite at all. He lifted up the steel bar and knocked his head off. He doesn't know the difference between playing the sound completely and not playing it completely. He should try it first and change it if it's not right.
Enter the classroom and seize the time to set up the battlefield.
All the small shelves of tables, chairs, benches were kicked into the middle of the classroom, and mattresses and tattered quilts were taken from the small beds in the adjacent rooms to add weight and cushioning to the debris pile. Even if the mantis monster attacks the debris pile, it will not cause the small stools to fly around. Affects movement.
Two small mattresses had just been brought in and laid out, and Li Xiang also helped to get one, when a praying mantis appeared outside the window.
The time after the disaster was long enough and there were reptile activities. The classroom windows were already missing two pieces. The mantis monster could rush in directly, but consistent with Wang Qi's observation, it did not like to enter the room on its own initiative.
Signal to Li Xiang: Pay attention to avoid, you can attack.
Then he resorted to the old trick and copied out medium-caliber steel bars used to make javelins to give the mantis monster a little stimulation.
Except for hitting the eyes like before, the javelin on the front can hardly hurt the mantis monster, it will only make it angry.
Although its combat power is at the same level as the mummy monster, it just can't do it if it's not smart enough. With a javelin thrown over it, it rushed straight into the classroom.
Then died.
There was no surprise at all, he was killed based on his strength.
