Chapter 602: The Queen's Power Slash

Seeing that the mysterious monster, suspected to be the king of the golden beetle group, was eating the corpse of its own kind, Gordon quietly made two gestures.

——Keep quiet and retreat.

Everyone retreated quietly, not daring to make a sound, for fear of attracting the attention of the terrifying monster again. Even the usually noisy Liefeng kept his mouth shut.

However, the mysterious monster obviously did not intend to let them go so easily.

A stream of golden silk spurted out from the glands of its abdominal segments, and was precisely wrapped around the metal beams scattered on the side.

With the hook of the legs, the metal beams that weighed at least tens of tons and were much longer than its entire body flew up and fell behind the hunters, blocking their way.

And it was too lazy to even raise its head to look at the hunters, still burying its head, slowly eating the corpse of the golden beetle.

Finally, I know where the high-strength silk collected before came from, Gordon thought to himself.

Faced with the mysterious monster's obstruction, the hunters did not get angry and continued to try to retreat.

But they were blocked by the golden beetles again.

These beetles seemed to be in a state of confusion and their movements seemed a little stiff. This sleepwalking state suddenly reminded Gordon of the beetle controlled by the heavy beetle.

Examples of females enslaving and eating males are not uncommon in the insect world.

Could it be that the mysterious monster was female and these golden beetles were male?

The mysterious monster ate very quickly. During the moment when the golden beetles blocked the hunters, the corpse had been chewed and swallowed by it.

The emerald green blood covered its chest and abdomen, but it did not look dirty. Instead, it seemed to add new colors to its gorgeous body dominated by golden brown.

"Chi--"

With another burst of hissing, a gas containing a strange fragrance spread out.

Those ferocious but confused golden beetles suddenly woke up. They seemed to be quite afraid of the mysterious monster. They ran away without looking back and disappeared in the dark cave corridor in a blink of an eye.

Gordon and his friends didn't know why the mysterious monster wanted to drive away these "slaves" at first.

Until it swung the steel beam like a meteor hammer.

"Boom boom boom!"

The whistling sound of the steel beam weighing dozens of tons flying in the air made people's scalps numb. If hit by this thing, even if it was just a touch, it would definitely end up with broken bones.

"Anxier!" Gordon ducked and rolled, dodging the sweeping swing of the steel beam, and turned back to roar.

The battle was obviously unavoidable.

Anxier ran forward two steps, quickly deployed the heavy crossbow, and fired rapidly to contain it.

The electric shock bomb hit the mysterious monster, and the arc flashed. The mysterious monster shook his body unhappily and took two steps back, looking very uncomfortable.

Even the movement of waving the steel beam to attack slowed down.

Gordon's eyes lit up.

The attack worked!

This at least proved that the opponent was not a monster like the old mountain dragon, whose skin was so thick that even cannons could not blow it up.

Although it was also extremely dangerous, if he gave it a try, there might be a chance!

He began to run and circumvent, approaching the monster from the side without interfering with Ansir's shooting range.

Thanks to the "help" of the golden beetle before, Gordon, who had accumulated courage, had a condensed look in his eyes.

The courage state was activated!

He ran faster and rushed to the side of the mysterious monster, took a big step to stabilize his body, and drew his sword to charge.

Ansir, who had just emptied a magazine, took a break from his attack, and Gordon also completed the preparations for the high-speed charge slash.

The epitaph sword swung down.

There was no reason for this sword to miss, but the development of things once again exceeded the hunters' expectations.

Under Gordon's stunned gaze, a steel barrier several meters square suddenly blocked his sword and the mysterious monster.

It seemed to be part of a steel gate, which was badly damaged, with layers of brown-red rust, but it was still thick and strong enough.

It was stuck by the mysterious monster with silk, and then pulled out from the ground with its legs, standing up like a huge shield to block the attack.

"Clang!" The metal clanged and sparks flew.

The heavy and sharp tombstone sword cut a deep mark on the iron gate, but the mysterious monster was unscathed.

This guy knows how to use tools and weapons!

Gordon felt his scalp tingling.

Wisdom is the most critical advantage of humans. If monsters can make up for this gap, how can humans fight monsters that are bigger and stronger than themselves?

But we can't stop now.

Gordon gritted his teeth and picked up the sword again.

"Meow!"

"Woof!"

Pork chop, wielding the cat sword, rode the gale and rushed over.

The mysterious monster waved its slender and sharp sickle limbs and chopped at them.

Zhuchop, who had judged the attack intention of the mysterious monster in advance, pulled Liefeng's ear, and the latter understood and jumped to the side, narrowly avoiding the slash.

Just as the mysterious monster was about to slash and chase, the roar of the crossbow from Anshil's side sounded again, temporarily distracting the former's attention.

"Hiss!"

The monster roared angrily, its legs danced, the silk filaments pulled, and the iron gate formed a barrier in front of it, blocking most of Anshil's shooting angles.

Gordon took the opportunity to chop down the big sword, but was blocked by the sickle limbs swung horizontally by the mysterious monster and lifted up.

This monster seemed to be very good at multitasking, and it did not seem to be in a hurry to deal with attacks from three directions at the same time.

But the two upper hunters were also not vegetarians.

Gordon, who was forced to leave, quickly stabilized his body, slid forward and took a big step, while entering a strong charging posture.

Strong charging and slashing!

Ansel, who was squatting and shooting from a distance, also fine-tuned the direction of the crossbow muzzle. The barrier formed by the iron gate blocked the shooting angle of 80% of the front part of the monster.

But isn't there still 20% left?

"Let's attack from the back, meow!"

The jumping Liefeng easily interfered with Ansel's shooting, and Pig Chop decided to continue to make a detour.

"Roar woof!"

Under the command of the external brain, Liefeng burst out at high speed again, and in a blink of an eye, it circled to the side and rear of the mysterious monster.

Next, there was no need for Pig Chop to remind him again. It opened its huge mouth loaded with steel teeth and bit it regardless.

Pig Chop also jumped up from behind Liefeng, and the red and black fighting spirit filled his whole body.

Ghost transformation!

Pig Chop jumped onto the tail section of the mysterious monster and showed his steel claws, scratching wildly.

Feeling the mysterious monster attacking from behind and preventing him from moving, he flicked his tail section and threw the pork chop out directly.

Ansel immediately accelerated the shooting rhythm and provided firepower cover, while Gordon took the opportunity to slide forward again and stick to the monster's chest.

The strong charging slash was ready, and he roared and swung the greatsword in his hand.

This time, the mysterious monster was busy getting rid of the entanglement of the pork chop and did not have time to swing his claws to block and counterattack, and the tombstone greatsword successfully slashed the side of its chest section.

A crack was broken in the golden brown carapace, and fluorescent green blood flowed out.

The previous feeling was right, the body defense of this monster was not strong!

The only pity was that the inscription on the tombstone greatsword had no reaction, which meant that the monster in front of him had nothing to do with creatures like "dragons".

The dragon attribute energy was not triggered at all.

"Jiya——!"

The mysterious monster whose torso was attacked let out a sharp hiss.

It swung its sickle limbs horizontally, forcing Gordon who was close to it to retreat, and then pulled its legs to drag the huge steel beam over and lifted it behind it.

Gordon's pupils shrank suddenly.

Is this a charged slash? !
