Chapter 383 Earth Vein Flower

The whistle blew, and shadows poured out like waves.

The spiders hibernating in the forest realized that it was time for them to start working.

Leaping from the forest into the naturally formed sea of ​​​​flowers, he let out a terrifying scream before attacking.

The special leyline plants that flourished like reeds trembled, as if a chaotic wind swept across the ground, shaking the twigs of the plants and the blooming flowers at the top.

Quite a few members of the Gnoll collection team let out strange screams of panic after seeing their leader, the Gnoll Captain, having his head inexplicably smashed by an invisible attack.

Some ran directly backwards. The lucky ones were able to escape into the dense forest enough to hide their figures under the aim of the precise shooters. The unlucky ones were just like their jackal captain...

When a 12.7mm full-power bullet hits the torso directly, the question is how long you can survive.

Armor is meaningless. Copper-core bullets that spin at high speed to stabilize themselves have armor-piercing capabilities that far exceed that of lead bullets... Whether the rough armor on them can withstand old-fashioned lead bullets is another matter.

Some crouched on the spot and hid their figures in the sea of ​​flowers, hoping to avoid the enemy's attack.

What greeted these guys were the scout hunting spiders and the forest spiders from the sky island world.

They carry a small amount of iron armor to protect important parts of the body, a thin, one-piece piece of iron fixed with string to the chitinous carapace they acquire after development.

The sea of ​​flowers fell down, shaking off a burst of light blue radiant pollen, which represented that a battle was taking place somewhere.

The sharp claws and fangs of the spiders can easily tear apart flesh and blood. The hunting spiders equipped with special claw knives are quite deadly in close combat...

The fangs tear through flesh, and the claws pierce through flesh.

The battle between the Huntsman and the panicked Gnoll and the Big Goblin was closer to a... massacre than a long-range shot.

A bloody massacre.

Swarm tactics, the more hunting spiders, the stronger the combat effectiveness.

Among the smaller scout hunting spiders are some forest spiders with thicker carapace, stronger strength, and the ability to attack.

The soldiers in the territory have regarded this thing as a subspecies of hunting spider. It eats the same food and sleeps in the same place... except that it is fatter and there is no other difference.

The battle ended quickly.

After the battle is over, it's time to clean up the battlefield.

Cleaning is quite a troublesome task. The soldiers drove the hunting spiders out of this field of magical plants that appeared due to the earth's veins... These little guys can take away half the life of a plant without paying attention.

The good news is that the hunting soldiers have all fed the hunting spiders before departure. The bad news is that the hunting spiders have a bad habit of chewing things.

The hunters cleaned the battlefield, lifted up some fallen plants, and restored the plants to their original appearance—these were the property of the territory.

It’s just that the territory hasn’t been developed to this point yet.

Then he collected the bodies as usual, cut down the wood, built a fire, and started burning.

Many hunters gathered around the fire to communicate. They threw the corpses and garbage, and the hunters called the captured cold weapons garbage, and threw them into the fire together.

No one was too close to the fire, and the smell of blood, flesh and grease was a bit too unpleasant.

"I have a question, can gnolls eat it?"

The precision shooter was cleaning the chamber of the new rifle he got, looking at the fire set up not far away... Fixed-load ammunition carrying cartridge cases no longer requires cleaning the residue after firing multiple times. It is enough to take one time a week to clean it. Enough, he was just used to cleaning the weapons in his hands after the battle.

"Why do you ask that? I'm not sure..."

The squad leader shrugged at him. After all, they were just soldiers, not biologists who focused on studying the ecological environment.

"But it's not like we don't have anything to eat, so why should we eat the meat of these jackals?"

The precision shooter didn't dare to say that he could smell the aroma of the barbecue even when he got close. Jackals are different from demi-humans...the only relationship between them and the word human is that jackals are bipedal creatures that walk upright.

His eyes were on the hunting spider. A forest spider was secretly pulling out a half-burnt thigh...part of the gnoll captain from the fire used to burn the corpse.

This unlucky guy took five full-power bullets in one minute, one to the head and four to the body, and he couldn't die any more.

The soldiers were worried that the thing was too big to be burned cleanly, so they took out the sharp side of the engineer shovel to change it into a state more suitable for returning to the earth.

Just slash hard at the weak points of the joints, and use the sharper side of the engineer shovel to slash, chop, and cut.

Several scout hunting spiders ran over with their legs to share this rare meal with their 'comrades'. They peeled off the skin that had been burnt to the point of being unusable, revealing the half-cooked flesh and blood inside.

The forest spider hissed twice and gave up part of it to the hunting spider that followed.

Tear, gnaw.

There was only one thick bone left, and these hunting spiders used their heads to push the thigh bone belonging to the Jackal Captain back into the fire.

The precision shooter shook his head, forget it, they can eat this stuff if they like.

Hunter spiders generally do not eat humanoid creatures because their owners do not like it.

Will be beaten.

After being beaten a few times, even the hunting spider knows that there are certain things not to be eaten randomly.

Huntsman spiders look unattractive.

However, they have high poison resistance and adaptability to harsh environments, which makes them particularly fond of rummaging for plant roots and various small animals to feed themselves.

The soldiers were not worried that the hunting spiders would eat until they died, but eating randomly was not good after all.

The precision shooter touched a piece of brown sugar and put it in his mouth, and asked the squad leader beside him if he wanted one, but the other shook his head.

The squad leader focused his attention on a very special plant next to him. Compared with the herbs beside him, it had a thicker rhizome, and a large number of rounded leaves with blue streamer patterns grew along the rhizome.

There were also several six-petal flowers hidden in the leaves.

The place where the flowers should have grown on the plant was leaking a light blue sticky juice, and the juice with blue light dripped on the leaves.

One less earth vein flower.

"Hmm..."

The company commander took off his military cap and sighed.

Instead of actively looking for it, it is better to wait for the wandering monsters to appear in the clearly visible weak ground veins and wait for them to work.

They can wait and station near the rare resource points generated in the weak ground veins, and there will always be enemies approaching.

Follow the traces left by the enemy, find their nest, and complete your work.

There seemed to be a little accident in his waiting action. A guy took away a ground vein flower. Although he didn't know the specific value of the ground vein flower...but the captain could clearly feel that the plant where the ground vein flower grows contains a lot of energy.

"Drive the airship over, let's go find it... find the guy who escaped, and clean up their camp by the way."

————

The jackal is running.

It has no special skills, but it is born to run very fast... very fast.

Faster than those spiders, faster than the people chasing it.

In its arms, it holds a blooming, six-petal flower that is completely soaked in blue light... stained with blood.
