Mosquito turned to look at Team Leader Chen and asked solemnly,""Team Leader Chen, could it be that this mission?”However, the words stopped abruptly.
I thought Mozzie knew the cause of the accident, but he didn't answer my question at all. "What the hell are you doing?"”
“help......”
A sudden foreign voice interrupted my question. Yang Liu was so scared that she hurriedly pulled out her gun and defended herself in the direction of the voice.
“help......”
His voice was very weak, mixed with a very painful tone. Fortunately, I could understand this word: Help!
"Team Leader Chen? What should we do?" I looked at the other three people. Team Leader Chen was half-squatting on the ground like us. He gestured to Mosquito and me to move left and right. He also asked Yang Liu to occupy a favorable position to support us from the back.
Mozzie and I carefully approached the direction of the sound. Along the way, we heard a few more " help ", which led us to the back of a huge machine.
Mozzie and I nodded at each other when we reached the front and back of the bed. Mozzie gently climbed onto the bed while I quietly circled around from the side.
" Don't, don't move." I leaned against the edge of the bed. I wanted to say a few words, but I really couldn't think of how to say " don't move." He could only suddenly jump out of his body, raise his spear with both hands, and roar straight ahead. When he saw the scene in front of him, he could not help but swallow his saliva.
He raised his head to look at Mozzie. He also revealed an incredulous expression. He slowly put down the gun in his hand and gestured to Team Leader Chen.
A few footsteps came from behind. I knew that Team Leader Chen and Yang Liu had rushed over, but I still maintained my initial movements until Yang Liu patted the back of my head to calm down.
"What are you doing, rat? "Oh my god!" Yang Liu cursed as she walked in front of me. Then, she cried out and took a few steps back. Her eyes were wide open without blinking.
Mosquito jumped down from the bed and slowly retreated to protect Yang Liu. I finally came back to my senses and turned to ask Team Leader Chen,""Team Leader Chen, this…this is a millipede, right? I've seen it in the past between man and nature. It's a prehistoric giant millipede."
The millipede in front of him was surprisingly large. Its entire body was dark red and shiny. It was oblate and more than one meter in diameter. It was crawling under another bed, revealing only a part of its body. For the time being, it was impossible to estimate its length.
It was gnawing on a foreigner with blonde hair and blue eyes. The foreigner's lower body was almost eaten up, and his intestines flowed all over the ground. When I first saw him, he was already dead.
I wasn't completely frightened by this millipede, but I had never seen such a miserable death. If it were me, I would definitely shoot myself without hesitation.
"It is indeed a giant millipede." Mozzie said," But it doesn't make sense. This place, this place is incredible."
I understood what the mosquito meant. The millipede was an arthropod with more legs than a centipede. It was a well-deserved millipede. They were generally between 10 to 30 centimeters long and were distributed worldwide. The largest millipede found so far was in Africa, which was 38 centimeters long.
As for the giant millipede, its body length could reach three meters. It was considered the largest terrestrial arthropod in the history of Earth.
However, they only lived in the charcoal period and had been extinct for hundreds of millions of years. Even if there were survivors, according to the growth habits of arthropods, the oxygen content in the air must have reached more than 35%.
Mozzie said that this place was inconceivable because theoretically, the giant millipede could not adapt to the environment here at all.
I took a deep breath and said," Mosquito, don't use your current common sense to explain prehistoric animals. Today's technology is advanced, but how can you deduce what the environment was like hundreds of millions of years ago? Even if some things can be inferred to be close to the mark, how many of the things we have encountered since entering Lop Nur have anything to do with common sense? So I think this big bug is similar to this damn place. It's simply an unreasonable existence. Since it doesn't make sense, then let's make it disappear.”
Yang Liu had already calmed down and retorted to me,"What do you mean by unreasonable? Since anything exists, there must be a reason for its existence. However, there are some things that we can't explain in a short time. That's why we need to decipher it. This is also the foundation of our existence.”
I said," You're right, you're right, but will this bug reason with you? Who knows if it has any relatives here? If we don't destroy it, who knows if it will bring us bad luck. Anyway, I feel very uneasy.”
"This…" Yang Liu's lips stuttered twice before she turned to Team Leader Chen and said,"Team Leader Chen, Haozi is right. I really feel that this millipede is very dangerous. I keep feeling that it will attack us at any time.”
Originally, I was just saying it casually, but when I heard Yang Liu, who had a very strong sixth sense, say this, I couldn't help but feel a chill down my spine. We've been standing here for a while, but this millipede is still eating so happily. It doesn't seem to be afraid at all.
But on second thought, what was there to be afraid of? If it was afraid, this foreigner wouldn't have suffered. I'm just afraid that it would want to taste the taste of Chinese food after it ate almost all the foreign fast food.
I took a step forward. Seeing that Team Leader Chen didn't stop me, I raised my hand and prepared to shoot. However, this bug was so huge that I was worried that a handgun wouldn't be able to kill it. I simply took out an M68 grenade from my waist. This was the standard American grenade that I had obtained from the army back in Stone Ball City.
"Step back, everyone, step back. I'll feed it an immortal pill.”
I dared to act cool. Yang Liu quickly called out to me and said,"Damn Rat, wait a minute. I almost forgot. Aren't you afraid of attracting the enemy?”
I was stunned for a moment, thinking,"Yeah."
Mosquito saw that I had turned around and was at a loss. She told me not to worry. The enemy had arrived here before us, so they must have known about the situation here. Even if they fired and threw grenades, they would think that they were dealing with these monsters.
I smiled knowingly and tested my hand. After they retreated to a safe area, I pulled out the ring and aimed at the millipede's mouth, throwing the grenade over. Then, I ran away.
boom
The grenade exploded in the mouth of the giant millipede. After the smoke dispersed, we quickly walked up. There was a strong smell around us, causing Yang Liu to cover her nose and scream in disgust.
This giant millipede was not completely dead yet. It kept rolling on the ground. I looked at its head and couldn't help but frown. The creature's shell was so hard that even though the grenade had blown up its mouth, only a few thumb-sized cracks were left on its skull. Gosh, the effective range of the M68 grenade was 15 meters. It was no wonder that such a well-equipped enemy could be captured by it.
I wasn't the only one who was shocked. The mosquito deliberately shot at its body, but the bullet only left a not-so-obvious mark on the shell.
I crawled to the ground and looked at the bottom of the bed. Then I got up and said,"Have you become a spirit? Wasn't it said that the prehistoric giant millipede could only grow to three meters long? I think this guy is at least ten meters tall.”
Yang Liu snorted and said,"Who was the one who said that we can't use common sense to explain everything that happened here?"”
I turned around and said,"It's me, it's me. What's wrong?" I…"
"Be careful!"
Before I could finish, Yang Liu pulled me fiercely and pulled the trigger several times with her other hand.
I quickly turned my head and saw an even larger millipede lying on the bed, looking down at us like a dragon.
