Chapter 343: Chapter 36: Armed Tyrannosaurus and Reduction in Numbers
A group of twenty Dragonbone Aboriginals came into view, causing everyone to become alarmed. Dragon Riders? They seemed very formidable.
These were not like the blackened corpses in the mall which were unidentifiable, but were powerful warriors with bows and rifles, their bodies robust. They discovered David and his party a little later, but they quickly tightened the reins and charged forth.
"Captain, what should we do?" Chris wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, her lips trembling with anxiety.
Robert did not waste a second. The moment he saw the Aboriginals, he immediately scampered atop the roof of a public bus, took out his Gauss sniper rifle and began to keep tabs on them through the infrared sight.
With a crack of gunfire, one of the Aboriginals head burst apart the moment it was marked by the T-shaped crosshair of Robert’s scope. The newbies didn’t even see the bullet coming. In an instant, one unlucky Aboriginal’s head was blasted into a mess, and his skull flew into the sky.
Crack, another gunshot rang. The newbies saw the upper body of a second unfortunate soul go flying, with only his legs remaining on the horse back. This sight immediately put them at ease.
"They are just Native Aboriginals. Even if they are riding dragons they are still Aboriginals. Our guns here aren’t just props," said David confidently. He didn’t believe that cold weapons could defeat firearms, so he didn’t even bother to find cover. He lifted his M4A1 and began to shower the cavalry with bullets.
"Give me a flintlock and I can also deal with them." Danny immediately lay down on the ground, set up his MG3 and began spewing a flame of bullets.
The newbies were already prepared to cheer, but these Aboriginals did not flee with their heads in their hands like the Native Aboriginals. Besides the three that were killed by the Gauss sniper rifle, the rest actually tried to dodge the bullets with their excellent riding skills and the results were surprisingly effective.
David’s face turned extremely unpleasant. An entire clip of thirty bullets, but he only managed to kill a single Aboriginal. Annoyed, he changed his clip and resumed firing. Danny also only had two kills, and this was only due to the suppressing fire of his bullet storm.
However, the newbies did not notice this predicament. They just saw the dead Aboriginals and raised their guns, prepared to indulge in a killing spree and wipe them all out.
The Aboriginals began to counterattack, starting with a javelin attack. Just as one Aboriginal straightened up with a javelin in hand, Robert blew his upper body to pieces. However, all the surviving Aboriginals threw their javelins.
"Dodge!" Seeing the fast speed and trajectory of the flying javelins, David instantly sensed danger, immediately diving behind a nearby car. Danny, forsaking all pretense, started to roll aside, without even time to get up.
One’s reaction speed and positioning at this moment decided their fate. The outer-team members, although they tripped and fell, successfully dodged. Rebecca, a waitress standing in the middle looked around and tried to find some cover. This little delay caused a javelin to pierce her chest, nailing her to the ground.
"Help me!" The hip-hop youth, who was also in the middle, tried to dodge but was a step too slow. His leg was hit and he fell to the ground. Before he could get up, another javelin shot through his lower abdomen.
A groan turned into a sharp scream, echoing through the street.
"Were they attacked?" Lu Fan, who was trailing behind, asked upon hearing the commotion. "They must have encountered the Aboriginals. What should we do?"
Looking at the red dot that represented the teleportation gate on the map, Tang Zheng said, "Let’s go around from another street. They should be able to find energy chargers on the corpses. We’ll take advantage of the situation when the time comes. Let’s hurry."
Because the Aboriginals were occupied with throwing javelins, they had no way to dodge the bullets, so Robert seized this opportunity to fire five shots. Along with David and Danny’s shooting, all the Aboriginals were killed. The closest one was still more than twenty meters away.
Looking at the sparsely scattered mutilated corpses on the street, the expressions of the newbies were a bit unsightly. Especially as the hip-hop youth, who was not yet dead but convulsing, foam coming out of his mouth, and reaching for help, which put even more unease in their hearts.
"Damn, where did these things come from? They are pretty fast." David frowned, "Also, their physical conditioning is quite good. I even saw one of them dodge bullets by twisting his upper body."
"Go search the bodies. Maybe we can use their mounts. Hurry up, let’s do this quickly and leave this place." Robert jumped off the bus and kicked Stevenson, who was still sitting on the ground resting.
While David and his team were searching the bodies, Tang Zheng and his team entered a building close to the teleportation gate.
"Where are we running to?" Julia, who was panting, said she couldn’t go on.
"From now on, keep quiet." Tang Zheng grabbed Demi, formed a mental image of their spatial position and recalled the direction of the teleportation gate, "This way."
Bang, Tang Zheng kicks open the door to a room on the second floor and goes in. He made a gesture for them to squat down while he quietly moved towards the window, only revealing his eyes to observe. Meanwhile, he continued to hold Demi, his hand over her mouth. Thankfully, the little Lolita was sensible and did not dare to cry out.
The teleportation gate was in a small alley, only slightly more than three meters away from the window where Tang Zheng was. At this moment, anyone who looked up would be able to see him.
David and his group were nearby, preparing to launch the chargers. Ten seconds later, the reminder to destroy a transfer platform sounded through everyone’s electronic sticks.
Lu Fan gave a thumbs-up, Julia and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, they had caught up, they were just one short.
David had also found several dragon taming flutes, gathering the raptors. With these mounts, their speed increased a lot. Leonard originally wanted to follow behind, but seeing others with mounts, he was sure to be left behind, so he couldn’t help but run out himself.
Tang Zheng didn’t know what price Leonard had paid for people to accept him, but this guy was really unlucky. He had just joined the team less than half an hour ago, and now he had run into a big dinosaur.
A tyrannosaurus with a body length of twelve meters, covered in skin as hard as steel, was wandering around their shining path. As soon as it saw them, it loudly roared and charged at them. Its huge weight was like a heavy tank running at full throttle.
Danny’s MG3 fired immediately, but the bullets only caused a few sparks on the tyrannosaurus’ skin before they were ricocheted off, and they didn’t even hurt a hair, let alone the Thunderstorm rifle, but they just scraped off a palm-sized piece of skin, not even showing the flesh inside.
David’s group scattered like flies, some of the newbies even wanted to run back without thinking.
Robert didn’t want to fight hard, but when he first used his electronic stick to sweep the surface of the dinosaur, he was stunned.
"Armed Tyrannosaurus, which had strayed into an ancient ruin and was transformed by radiation. It has excellent defense power, can shoot a fireball, and will drop a golden horn after death."
"Stay calm, we must kill him." After seeing the introduction, David shouted at the top of his lungs. However, the newbies wouldn’t listen. Especially when they saw Robert firing a shot, bullets could only create a splash of blood on the skin. They started to desperately smack the buttocks of the raptors, urging them to run faster.
The armed tyrannosaurus was enraged, it suddenly roared towards the sky, and orange-red flames gathered around its large, sharp teeth. With its roar, dozens of scorching fireballs the size of basketballs shot out like meteors, shooting at the bugs fleeing in front.
The women screamed in fear. Rolin, who was not very skilled at riding, was at the very back. Now when she saw more than a dozen fireballs flying over her body with trails of fire, she was even more scared. She was about to speed up when she lost her balance and fell off the saddle. Fortunately, her right foot was hooked in the stirrup, otherwise she would have been definitely thrown off.
Today was undoubtedly Rolin’s lucky day. As the stirrup is high above the ground, she was hanging upside down on the side of the raptor. Otherwise, if she had been dragged on the ground at high speed, she would have definitely died. But even so, she screamed constantly because her head was only two or three feet high from the ground. The speed felt at this position will be faster. Especially during bumps, the ground suddenly went up and down, and the feeling that her head seemed to hit it at any time was too scary.
Rolin’s raptor, now out of control, ran even more crazy. It didn’t care about her on the side, and instantly passed several other raptors. But Rolin’s luck was used up. She hit her head on a taxi and passed out. Blood flowed from her forehead, sprinkled all over the ground.
The hip-hop girl wasn’t so lucky. The raptor under her changed direction too quickly to avoid a fireball, sprained its leg, and fell to the ground. Before she could even get up, the armed tyrannosaurus had arrived, and with its mouth wide open, bit the both of them.
The screams from the hip-hop girl quickly came to an abrupt halt. With the tyrannosaur closing its mouth, she was bitten in two, and the organs in her abdomen spilled out onto the ground. But the raptor beneath her was even worse off. It was stepped on the stomach by the tyrannosaurus, flattened like a popped balloon, and crushed into a puddle of mud.
"Go into the building." Hearing the commotion ahead, Tang Zheng, who was four hundred meters behind, took out his telescope and took a look then immediately signaled everyone to hide in the nearby building.
They had only twenty seconds. They had a narrow escape from the fastest of Miranda’s group. She was good at horse riding, thus her riding skills were the best among them.
Hiding at the window of the second floor, Tang Zheng looked at those who were fleeing in panic, his face was calm. Jenny and others also saw the armed tyrannosaurus and were so scared that they almost wet their pants. At this moment, they were very grateful that they were with Tang Zheng. Otherwise, their figures would also be among those who fled in a hurry.
"Three of them have died." Lu Fan scoffed, "The newbies broke the formation of the Conquerors. If they hadn’t run away, it wouldn’t have been this bad, after all, they have seed abilities to back them up."
"Rebecca is also dead." The death of her colleague made Kailin grief-stricken and worried about the future.
"As long as we’re alive, that’s all that matters." Jenny cursed and didn’t ask Tang Zheng to rescue others. She wasn’t that stupid.
"Aren’t we following up to collect intelligence?" Lu Fan didn’t care too much about it and asked, "What about the spoils of war?"
"Let’s wait, we’ll talk when the second one comes out." Tang Zheng leaned against the wall, "Jenny, you’re in charge of surveillance." (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for this novel on qidian.com. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
