Great Demon Leader: Start By Refining Flying Zombies

Chapter 60: Welcome to the Land of Annihilation

In the vast desert, the sky was as always filled with never-ending leaden clouds.

A small creature with four hooves, standing about fifteen zhang tall, had a sturdy body and rough skin like sandpaper. It was leisurely chewing in a twisted jungle.

However, it was soon startled by the distant thunderous footsteps, causing its melon-shaped ears to stand up.

After hesitating for a moment, the creature quickly lowered its body and wandered further away, avoiding potential fierce predators.

Not far from the twisted jungle.

A sand dune, protruding like a grave, was inconspicuous.

But at this moment, a sound of releasing pressure, "puchi puchi," came from inside.

A white column of air burst open the surface of the sand, revealing the true appearance of the "grave."

It turned out to be an extremely thick steel gate!

The outer surface of the gate was painted in a camouflage-friendly earthy yellow color, with only a dark gray gear mark in the center.

Accompanied by the sound of mechanical gears, the steel gate opened from the inside, its thickness even more astonishing than imagined.

It was over ten zhang thick, resembling a gigantic cork made of steel.

It couldn't be pushed open by human strength alone, no wonder it needed mechanical power.

This was a very concealed shelter, and judging from the thickness of the steel gate, it had some chance of withstanding a nuclear explosion.

Just as the gate was fully opened.

A wild-looking armored vehicle, like a raging bull, rushed out from inside, its large wheels kicking up three feet of sand!

The armored vehicle drove to the edge of the twisted jungle.

A head with a red Mohican hairstyle protruded from the side window of the armored vehicle, its eyes askew as it stared at the footprints left by the small creature on the ground, resembling bullet holes.

The distinct split hoof prints excitedly made him shout.

"Lei... Lei Lei... Captain Lei, this is a herbivorous behemoth, we found one!"

However, the head with the red Mohican hairstyle was quickly pulled into the vehicle, and a muscular black-skinned man quickly closed the side window, smashing the radiation-proof helmet onto the face of the Mohican, causing his nose to bleed profusely.

"Duo'er! I've... I've long been fed up with you! Today, I will definitely stick the barrel of my gun into your @# and then stab it out of your throat!"

The head with the red Mohican hairstyle wiped his painful nose with his hand and found blood, instantly becoming furious.

He picked up a large-caliber hunting rifle from behind the seat, clicked it to load, and was about to take action, but was stopped by a strong arm.

The one who stopped him was an old white man inside the carriage. Although he was old, his short white hair stood up like steel needles, and he had the gaze of a resolute tough guy.

In a hoarse voice, he scolded:

"Maifu! Duo'er is saving you!"

"Outside is all radiation. In less than three minutes, your innately atrophied brain will grow malignant tumors, compressing the already insufficient space inside your skull!"

"Do you want to die?"

The head with the red Mohican hairstyle seemed to have great respect for the old white man in front of him. His askew eyes blinked twice, and he lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, stuttering as he explained, "I forgot about the radiation... Lei... Captain Lei, the doctors in the shelter said that I... I probably won't live past twenty-five... so it doesn't matter..."

Captain Lei, the white man, paused in his tone, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, and his anger dissipated.

He hesitantly touched the head of the red-haired Mohican, then sat back in his original position, followed by a sigh with a heavy and desolate meaning.

The usually irritable Captain Red did not harshly reprimand himself, which made the red-haired Mohican feel uneasy. With a pair of not very intelligent eyes, he secretly observed the old man's expression.

"Captain Red, there is a herbivorous behemoth near the shelter. It is expected to have average aggressiveness and low threat level. It is preliminarily classified as a D-level beast suitable for hunting. Should we continue tracking it?"

A magnetic female voice broke the frozen atmosphere in the carriage, and even a few strong men in the back took the opportunity to whistle cheerfully towards the driver's seat.

The driver of the armored vehicle was a capable young woman. Perhaps due to years of erosion by sandstorms, her skin was rough and her hair was yellowish, but her black pupils were very bright, and she had a good figure.

She was a rare beauty in this desperate wasteland.

"Sasha, continue tracking. The supplies in the shelter are running low, and it may take months to encounter another D-level beast. We can't miss this opportunity!"

Captain Red calmed his emotions, picked up the weapon next to him and checked it, then ordered, "Except for Sasha, all combat personnel immediately check their equipment and put on full radiation suits!"

"Yes!"

Accompanied by a low roar from the armored vehicle, the huge tires rubbed against the ground violently as they chased after their prey.

Because this D-level beast appeared almost right next to the shelter, and the four-hoofed creature had just run a few kilometers before being attracted by food, it was wandering and eating at the same time.

Therefore, tracking the armored vehicle did not require much effort, saving a lot of time and avoiding the accidents that often occurred during long-distance hunts.

Soon, the four-hoofed creature, about fifteen feet tall, appeared on the horizon of the desert. Captain Red, wearing protective clothing, opened the skylight of the armored vehicle and skillfully set up a sniper rifle with an astonishing caliber.

Looking at the caliber, it was more appropriate to call it a cannon than a gun.

To resist the recoil, the contact parts between the firearm and the human body were equipped with special hydraulic structures to prevent the joke of shaking oneself to death after firing a shot.

"For the behemoth, we are like mice or ants and won't directly arouse its vigilance. So, this first shot is very important. It's best to hit the eye!"

"In this way, even if the behemoth launches an attack on us, we have a greater chance of dodging and waiting for it to weaken before counterattacking with heavy firepower!"

"Usually at this time, the behemoth will panic and flee, and we will pursue it all the way. After its blood runs dry, we can easily harvest a large amount of resources!"

"They are just huge in size and strong in vitality, but fundamentally they are still beasts, so don't be afraid!"

Captain Red squinted his eyes and aimed the scope at the huge creature in front of him, while explaining the strategy to the others in the carriage through the intercom.

He was undoubtedly an experienced hunter. Even on the bumpy armored vehicle, facing the towering behemoth like a city wall, his palms did not sweat at all. His breathing gradually calmed down as he waited for the moment when the crosshairs aligned.

Hoo!

Captain Red gently exhaled all the air from his lungs, and his rough fingers gradually touched the trigger.

The water barrel-sized eyes of the four-hoofed creature seemed to be right in front of the barrel.

It's now!

The old man suddenly pulled the trigger.

Bang!

A blue muzzle flash flashed by, and the specially designed armor-piercing bullet flew out of the barrel, crossing a distance of several hundred meters, about to hit the target.

However, the space slightly distorted, and a figure in a purple robe suddenly appeared, intercepting the trajectory!

"What?!"

Captain Red was shocked, almost unable to believe everything he saw through the scope. He even suspected that he was too old and had hallucinations!
