Steel steam and flame

Chapter 946: The Name of the Lone Wolf (3) Chapter 946

The distance was only a few hundred meters, and within ten seconds, four people had already approached from all directions. There were three men and one woman, white smoke rising from their bodies as the sweat evaporated. Everyone hid behind the ice in panic, and quickly took out their firecrackers and shot at the large area of ​​snow in front of them.

"Left! Left!" An anxious voice roared out immediately, and the muzzle of the gun immediately turned around. However, compared to the speed of this snake, no matter how fast and powerful the bullet was, if it could not be caught, it would just be No matter the consumption. Moreover, the sound of gunshots became a hypnotic drug for death, accelerating the mental tension of the four people. In the panic, some people tried to use others as bait and escaped on their own.

I just don’t know whether the snake did it on purpose or sensed something subtle. It stopped a hundred meters away from the ice. Through the ice not covered by snow, Cassia saw a head less than a quarter of the size of an adult's fist popping out of the snow. The sight was blurred through the ice, but the square-shaped head was still clearly depicted in Cassia's eyes.

The head is extremely sharp, like a precisely processed metal block, with a cutting edge like a sharp edge. The body, which is less than two meters long, also looks like it is made of building blocks. Except for the head that poked out of the snow, the reflected sound waves told Cassia that the snake's body hidden in the snow was twisted almost like a crankshaft, like a thick spring. Perhaps the ultimate speed is due to this twisted body, coupled with alienation. Produced by extremely tough bones. The force is compressed into the muscles and bones in advance, and released instantly when needed. The explosive power it brings is amazing, and it also has strong directional operation ability.

The muzzle of the gun locked onto it instantly, and the panicked shots only increased his own nervousness, but posed no threat to the snake at all.

The snake began to swim around. The snake was very careful, always keeping what it thought was a safe distance, and observing the packed ice. It has no eyesight and relies on the temperature sensing organs enhanced by evolution to locate prey. However, as a creature, it is far less intelligent than humans, but it has a simpler sensing system, which allows it to detect if there is anything in the ice. If there is no danger.

The steel-cased bomb opened up the thick snow. Among the four, the woman was using her temperature sensing ability to guide the other three to attack the target as accurately as possible. There was a lot of movement, and the vibrations continued to impact Cassia in the ice. Some of the scattered shrapnel hit the ice that covered him. They were all enhanced bombs. The ice cracked in the next breath or two, and then shattered with a bang.

The power of the explosion could not pose a threat to the snake. From the sound, Cassia saw that a lot of shrapnel had indeed enveloped it. But not a single piece can penetrate it. The size was originally much smaller, but the hardness of the snake scales allowed it to withstand all these attacks. The main means of attack is to rely on extremely strong explosive power and a sharp head to penetrate the enemy. The improvement in its own defense has received more care from this snake.

No longer hiding in the ice, Cassia released all his perceptions, and the regular low sounds also increased in volume. He knew that the snake probably felt his presence. When the desire to attack failed to overwhelm his little reason, Cassia hoped that he could let it take the initiative to avoid it.

"We must leave here as soon as possible. If there is too much movement, other examiners and second-type creatures around will rush over in a short time." What is really worrying is this. Once they gather together, it will become difficult to escape. trouble. Especially the second type of creatures, their sensitive sense of smell makes them more threatening than the surgeons now.

Ignoring the astonished eyes of the four people, Cassia jumped onto the slightly raised ice and looked at the large patches of snow shrouded in gunpowder smoke. The sound will change from deep to sharp, even harsh. This is something Cassia learned not long ago. Increasing the volume and improving the timbre can allow him to more clearly capture the movements of everything around him.

The snake lurking around finally couldn't bear its desire to attack at this time. One of the reasons was due to fear and fear. This subconsciously makes it think that it needs and must do something, just like the final struggle of a herbivore in the mouth of a carnivore.

The moving body finally stopped at this moment, and the snake coiled up its body in an instant, shaped like a strong spring that grew from small to large, but the curved shape was not round, but close to a hexagonal shape. The scales all over the body suddenly opened at this time. When it was completely coiled into a ball and the snake's head was in the middle, all the power stored in every part of its body was released.

"Boom!" A straight black shadow suddenly appeared from under the snow, like a falling meteor hitting Cassia. Only then did the large piece of snow boil and explode in all directions. At this moment, the snake's elongated body turned into a sharp sword that was ejected, approaching Cassia's head.

"Be careful!" The woman's voice just came out, and there was already a loud noise in front of her. As if there was a direct collision between steel, Cassia's head tilted back slightly, the ice under his feet immediately shattered, and his body sank into the snow.

The air that was still for a few seconds was broken by the sound of "squeaking" snow. A man was dripping in the snow and fled quickly towards the other side. Then another person followed closely and ran towards the other side. Only two people were left in the same place. At this time, they suppressed their long-term panic and came to Cassia's side.

"Are you...are you okay?" The girl who didn't sound nice brought Cassia back from her dizziness.

Originally thinking that he would target his heart, Cassia later remembered that he had forgotten to add another influencing factor - he had no obvious body temperature. The snake could only rely on its almost no vision and enhanced perception to choose the best target. Kill your own attack position.

Compared to the ejection speed, Cassia was much slower, and the tactical knife did not block the attack. But I wanted to compare, and in the end it was Cassia who blocked it. The snake hit itself to death. The forehead bone is a very hard part, and the structure of the head can also bear considerable impact force. Coupled with the hardness of Cassia's own bones, it is something that even pneumatic weapons cannot cut off in a short time. Only a layer of skin on the forehead was broken, but the snake's square head was shattered on Cassia's forehead and squeezed into a ball.

The lifeless body quickly turned into ice strips. Cassia grabbed the snake's body and twisted it before pulling out the snake that had solidified and frozen on her body. Not a drop of blood was left. The influence of the induction field and cold promoted Cassia's self-healing mechanism. When he turned his head to look at the two people beside him, a light brown film appeared on the wound on his forehead, covering the wound.

"It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy." Looking at the snake in her hand, Cassia said that she was somewhat impressed by it. This species was originally a species that lived in swampy areas. Its predecessor should be a non-venomous snake. Its hunting method relies on the strong entanglement ability of its body.

Falling into silence for a while, Cassia threw the snake's body into the snow and looked at the blurry front. The light continued to increase, and the field of vision reached more than two hundred meters. A scream came from behind. The three of them looked over, but couldn't see anything. Probably the person who ran away just now encountered something bad.

The woman remembered something at this time and immediately said: "I am a fan of Na'e. The other creatures around me must have been attracted by the movement just now. I want to leave here right away." The remaining person nodded, but Cassia had already walked out for more than ten years. meters away.

"Hey, I think we should cooperate now." The screams aroused a roar from near and far, and from time to time there were also gunshots. Na'emi wanted to walk in another direction, but when she saw Cassia who was completely ignoring her, she followed up with another man almost at the same time.

"My name is Lucius. Thank you not long ago." Lucius said. "Without your temperature sensing ability, all ten people might have died on the road, including myself."

Na'e shook her head, her voice a little distorted through the mask: "They are all second-stage surgeries. Before we find our own family team, joining forces will greatly improve the survival rate." The last words were louder. , Cassia knew that this was meant to be told to herself.

There was no response. At this time, the speed was increased. Daytime was the best time to go. There were roars of second-type creatures behind and in front of them. Soon this place would become their gathering place.

For the first half hour, I could keep up with Cassia's speed, but then there was an obvious distance between the three of them. Na'e Mi and Lucius were chased by the snake for more than half an hour. Most of the reason they survived was because the death of others provided buffer time. Most of his physical strength and energy were consumed, and it was completely impossible to keep up with Cassia.

Finally the two stopped and stood in a patch of undulating snow to catch their breath. Seeing Cassia getting further and further away from them, they wanted to keep up, but their feet and bodies did not obey the orders of their brains. There is still a little strength left, but it is physical energy that will not be forcibly consumed until life is threatened.

The two knew they needed some time to rest. They could only watch the silent man gradually disappear from the field of vision. When the distance reached a certain level, under the natural mimicry, they could no longer distinguish Cassia's figure except by relying on the walking traces in the snow.

Na'e's fan tried to use temperature sensing to lock Cassia again, but still found nothing.

"How about it?"

"It can't be captured. This man doesn't even emit any heat from his body. I don't know if it is a kind of surgical development. Even if it is thought that he has developed the ability to control body temperature, as long as he does not concentrate on hiding it, he will produce something that can be captured when he moves. of heat. Weird.”

"Perhaps," Lucius looked forward, and the traces on the snow were also hidden in the gray light, "for him, traveling at this level is not even a basic warm-up." The two of them revealed their faces at the same time. wry smile.

A few minutes later, two figures followed the traces left behind.

When there was a slight sound of gunfire from ahead, it was already noon. Since Lucius and Na'emi lost Cassia's shadow, all they could see was the white snow and the black clouds that began to roll in the sky. From time to time, they would also look at the blurry black shadow of the mountain peaks to determine their direction and position while stopping and resting.

The sound of gunfire accelerated the two men's journey. Although it only lasted half a day, they still noticed something different from before. Following the traces left by the silent man, the surroundings were very quiet. This place is also far away from the nearest mountain peak, but it is not a remote place within the assessment scope. In the end, the two agreed to blame Cassia.

Ten minutes later, dozens of corpses covered with hoarfrost appeared in the field of vision, including all second-class creatures and humans. There were traces of fierce fighting in the snow, and large areas of snow were swept away, revealing the ice below and dark golden bullet casings everywhere.

The two looked at the corpses, but the bullet holes in the dead people made them think a lot. This does not seem to be a simple battle between examiners and second-category creatures. Finally, they walked up to Cassia, who was eating second-type creatures that were frozen into ice cubes. Without asking any questions, only humans could use firearms.

With the sound of "哐哐哐,,,,,", Lucius and Na'emi listened to this chewing sound, and the appetite that had finally aroused was once again dispelled. Cassia finished one piece, then cut off another piece with difficulty with a tactical knife, and swallowed it one bite at a time. Only the coldness of the entrance, the smell of blood has been sealed by the cold, let alone the taste, it can only be called filling the stomach.

"There are not many toxic substances, you can eat a little." After finally hearing the man speak, Na'emi and Lucius quickly said their names, and Cassia replied "Tusos".

"You'd better not follow me, it will only be more dangerous." Cassia saw that the two of them wanted to seek protection from him. But he had no intention of bringing two burdens with him. They were not Ye Jielin.

"Thank you very much Mr. Tussos. If I hadn't met you today, I don't think I would have been able to escape death. I will leave tomorrow. Depending on your route, Mr. Tussos, you will probably change direction tomorrow. From there Let's pass by the edge of a mountain peak." As she said that, Na'e Mi pointed to a shadow, "My family members just agreed to meet around that place. If possible, I hope Mr. Tuso will let us follow you to the foot of the mountain peak tomorrow. We will definitely stop halfway. We won’t cause any trouble, we’re just following behind. If that doesn’t work, it’s okay if we don’t appear in your sight, as long as you allow it.”

Cassia didn't speak. The route did have to go through there, whether it was to meet Ye Jielin or to find the iron box she had hidden. Na'emi saw that they could discuss it, so she spoke quickly, eager and sincere at the same time: "I can provide some high-energy food! There are supply boxes buried by my family there. And after the assessment is over, I will go back to the empire. If there is a chance, Mr. Tussos When you come to Toronase, you can come to me to solve some trivial matters."

"Me too, I hope to follow you to the foot of the mountain. Although I cannot provide food, like Miss Na'emi, I will go back to the Empire and Rossat City. As long as you are in need, Mr. Tussos, I will try my best to help. "Lucius immediately followed Na'emi's words.

At night, Cassia buried herself directly in the snow everywhere to rest. The two people who had been following him had followed the traces not long ago, and they were lying not far away.
