Chapter 185: Chapter 186: First Probe, Bullets Ineffective!

Lin Yue put on the gas mask but quickly took it off again.

He felt a bit too anxious, thinking about dealing with that giant creature made him genuinely uneasy.

After all, it’s the largest and most unstoppable enemy he’s encountered so far.

He took several deep breaths to ease his tense nerves.

Just now, the sudden physical abnormality almost drained most of his stamina.

I must admit, whether it’s a virus or something else, it’s extremely lethal to him.

Without stamina, his combat power is severely diminished; rushing out recklessly would be suicide.

He pulled out a few Lion-headed Bear steaks, handed Bai some, and kept one for himself, taking a big bite.

Despite the delicious taste of the meat, it felt unbearably greasy in his mouth.

Forcing himself to eat it, Lin Yue washed it down with a can of Baoliu tea to cut the greasiness.

He put the gas mask back on, grabbed a ladder, and climbed above the shelter to quickly reinstall the windows removed earlier onto the roof.

"Outside... I can’t see a thing." Lin Yue looked out from the window, finding nothing in this direction, not even a shadow of the giant creature.

Crawling through the window, Lin Yue stood on the roof of the new shelter for the first time, immediately steadying his balance and crouching down, taking out the sighting scope.

But he quickly put the sighting scope down.

There was no need for it; he could see clearly.

"It’s actually... this close?" Lin Yue swiftly noticed on the opposite side of the window, in the wasteland where several flowers seen yesterday had bloomed unexpectedly at some unknown time, a massive shadow.

The scale of the creature was far beyond anything on Earth—a height of tens of meters, plus a neck of over a dozen meters; its sheer size was enough to be shocking.

Moreover, its terrifying form of a bull’s head, snake-neck, and elephant body was enough to terrify.

Bai pushed open the stone door, flapping its wings and flying to his side, seemingly quite concerned for him.

Lin Yue patted Bai, signaling it not to be so tense.

Though he was indeed nervous; who could face such a colossal monster and not feel nervous?

At this moment, the giant creature was less than three to four hundred meters from the position of his shelter!

Lin Yue remembered when he first saw that monster and the closest he had gotten was about two to three kilometers away, but this time, the distance was too uncomfortably close.

Three to four hundred meters... and it hasn’t attacked this very obvious shelter? Is it because his shelter happens to be just outside the creature’s defensive perimeter?

Lin Yue found himself increasingly baffled by these giant creatures.

Does it only attack when someone enters its "territory"? Like a guard dog chained to its backyard?

He shook his head and continued to observe the monster.

He found that at this moment, the giant creature appeared to be asleep, lying prone on the wasteland soil.

Its massive form, seen at such close distance, was even more outrageous, making Lin Yue almost think it was a small mountain that appeared out of nowhere.

The neck, over ten meters long, was draped on the ground, while the bizarre bull’s head seemed like it was savoring some delicacy, trembling continuously. Meanwhile, the gigantic body sometimes slightly rose and fell, breathing slower than imagined. The whip-like tail kept swaying, its sharp bone spikes occasionally piercing the red soil and raising clouds of dust.

If he hadn’t personally witnessed this monster crazily sweep away and devour any approaching mutated creatures, Lin Yue might have believed this creature was, like the gigantic monsters with tentacles and six legs he saw in the Secret Realm, vegetarian and gentle.

Moreover, this giant creature is the main culprit that can cause a sudden high fever in almost no time.

Now, Lin Yue concluded this because all evidence so far pointed to this.

Whenever this thing approaches someplace, people there start sneezing and then get a high fever for half a day, completely losing combat capability.

However, Lin Yue also discovered that after taking antipyretics and wearing the gas mask, he seemed to have stopped sneezing.

Airborne transmission... a scent?

He didn’t want to take off the gas mask to test further, only able to speculate a bit.

He hadn’t smelled anything inside the house, and Bai...

Wait.

Lin Yue suddenly realized a point he hadn’t considered until now.

Looking at Bai beside him, he found it increasingly strange.

Why doesn’t Bai get a fever?

"Buzhi buzhi!" The Little Ice Lizards seemed to have woken up at this moment, chirping incessantly inside the shelter, seemingly aware of the nearby danger.

Lin Yue glanced back at them; these little fellows didn’t have the same reaction as he did.

Is this toxin-like scent only effective on humans?

The more Lin Yue observed, the more questions arose, and the mysteries deepened.

Facing what is arguably the most powerful mutated creature in the Otherworld he has encountered so far, he feels more excitement and thrill rather than fear and dread.

The reason lies in the weapon in his hand, which has become much more advanced than before.

While he can’t summon Ultraman or pilot Gundams, Lin Yue now has various ideas and strategies for battling the monster.

"Bai, take me to that direction!"

Attacking the creature risks counterattacks; if it notices this ambush from the rooftop, the shelter might not withstand the assault.

"Gawoo!" Bai was surprised; it hadn’t expected its master to really want to attack the giant creature, but since the master decided, it obeyed absolutely.

Leaping off the rooftop, Bai cradled Lin Yue, who had switched to a sniper rifle, in its arms, spread its wings, and in a short time soared into the sky!

"It doesn’t even bother to look over here?" Lin Yue directed Bai to the airspace above the shelter, then parallel to Acid Rain Lake.

Attack from here and see?

"Bai, maintain altitude!"

In the high altitude, Lin Yue felt the slightly stronger air flow different from the ground, pressing his eyes against the sighting scope.

The giant creature’s target was so large that he needn’t aim for any supposed vital point; this shot was to test its defenses!

With a sharp sound from the muzzle, a tiny burst of flame unexpectedly sprang from the giant creature!

"Gurulululu..."

A strange noise echoed from the direction of the giant creature, and he immediately saw that the monster lazily lifted its head a bit, glanced at them in the air like looking at a pesky bug, then lowered its head and continued eating whatever it was eating.

"What is it eating? And indeed, this creature’s defenses are exceedingly strong." Lin Yue suddenly recalled how the giant creature could walk normally in the flood of Acid Rain, utterly unafraid of its corrosive effects.

It’s difficult to deal with.

Lin Yue picked up the sighting scope, carefully observing its head.

"It’s eating... flowers?"
