Chapter 1136: Chapter 591: Such a Waste! These Cannibals_3

"That’s all we need to guide Elijah Hastings later," Sean Knight said.

After completing all this, Sean Knight turned around and climbed up, then called out to Elijah Hastings in a low voice:

"Elijah, come down quick, there’s a way out here!"

Elijah Hastings was tensely sensing the noise outside; hearing Sean Knight’s shout, he too was overjoyed and immediately grabbed his backpack and ran down.

"Boss, these ants are pretty fierce, now they’ve almost covered half of the area with the medicine powder. I reckon in another half an hour, they’ll almost be able to climb up to the stone chamber up there," he said.

"No worries, we are getting out from below," Sean Knight led Elijah Hastings to the lower stone chamber and then entered the last stone door.

"The air feels so comfortable in here... Huh?" Elijah Hastings, with his keen senses, immediately noticed the difference.

"Yes, I felt the same when I opened the stone chamber door," Sean Knight replied.

Sean Knight gently removed the rock he had pried open and said:

"Look, outside..."

Elijah Hastings took a close look and indeed, he saw the outside.

Then he exclaimed in surprise:

"Boss, the scent has attracted the ants!"

"We can’t worry about that now!" Sean Knight took out a small package of medicine powder and scattered it, then quickly pried at the rocks, "Hurry, we’re racing against the ants for time!"

When the third rock was pried off, ants started crawling down from above, but because of the medicine powder, they didn’t dare come close and just waved their antennae incessantly on the rocks above.

"Almost there..." Sean Knight felt like he was racing against the Grim Reaper for time, and Elijah Hastings was also putting in his utmost effort!

Finally, before the nearby ants had gathered, they managed to dig out a half-meter-tall hole. Sean Knight crawled out first, then pulled Elijah Hastings out as well!

"Run!" The two men smacked the ants that had climbed onto them as they dashed into the jungle!

Several cannibal tribe warriors quickly intercepted them, but Sean Knight had long discarded the shovel, switching to a pistol and started shooting at those few people "bang bang bang" while on the move!

The accuracy was touching, but the momentum was enough to scare those cannibal warriors into running away!

"These ants are insane!" Only after running into the dense forest and hiding behind some shrubbery did the two men stop, Elijah Hastings swatting himself and pulling off an ant that was biting his flesh, crushing it harshly.

There were already several bloody spots on his body!

At this point, Sean Knight could no longer care about propriety. Scanning with Sky Eye, he found a dozen more ants on Elijah Hastings’ body and backpack!

"We are safe at last!" Sean Knight took a deep breath.

"Now’s the time for the hunt!" Elijah Hastings had been holding back for a long time and had been bitten by the ants; he needed to vent, no matter what.

"Boss, watch the package for me, I’m going to take a look around," Elijah Hastings put down his backpack and then filled his pistol with bullets, "I’ll be back soon!"

Knowing that if Elijah Hastings didn’t let off steam, he might get sick from the frustration, Sean Knight waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, but be careful."

Now that he himself was out of danger, he’d let Elijah Hastings disrupt those cannibal tribes.

Elijah Hastings left the shrubbery but did not immediately burst out and start killing.

He first surveyed the terrain, found his direction, then headed towards where the cannibal tribe had first taken cover.

Sure enough, after five or six minutes, he heard voices from the opposition.

There were three indigenous people talking, and the voice of one speaking was very angry, probably because their plan had failed, and he was scolding the other two warriors.

The two warriors occasionally made excuses, but Elijah Hastings couldn’t understand them.

Elijah Hastings had a keen sense, and he noticed that there were a lot of animals nearby; several monkeys crouched on the trees near the three men, and there was also a jaguar close by.

Elijah Hastings immediately guessed that among these three people, there was someone who could control animals!

He raised his pistol and took careful aim.

A distance of a little over thirty meters was not too difficult for Elijah Hastings to make a kill shot.

But he wanted more!

After some thought, Elijah Hastings put away his gun and took out a hand grenade from his backpack, pulled the pin, and threw it forcefully towards them!

The three indigenous people did not notice the hand grenade, but the monkeys in the trees did and suddenly screamed!

As Elijah Hastings threw the hand grenade, he had already lifted his gun again!

"Pop pop pop!"

When the bullets were fired, Elijah Hastings knew he had hit his mark!

This kind of shooting feeling couldn’t be developed by someone practicing in a shooting club!

After firing a few shots, Elijah Hastings immediately changed locations, diving into another patch of shrubbery and continued shooting towards them.

As he dove, the hand grenade had exploded. To his surprise, the grenade exploded in a monkey’s hand— one curious monkey, not learning from the previous monkey that had grabbed a grenade, seemed to show off its skills by catching the grenade mid-air after leaping in the trees.

And then it blew up.

The grenade exploded mid-air, and although it didn’t hurt the three indigenous people, it startled them, which was followed by Elijah Hastings’ shooting that turned one of them into a corpse!

The other two reacted quickly, immediately taking cover behind trees with bows and arrows ready to fire back, but Elijah Hastings ran to another angle and took another one down!

While Elijah Hastings was on a killing spree, Sean Knight was not idle.

At the sound of gunfire, the indigenous people scattered around immediately rushed towards the source of the noise!

Sean Knight, lying in wait, took down two easily!

If he weren’t concerned about revealing his position, Sean Knight could have taken down several more!

However, after this group passed, Sean Knight started shooting at those fleeing.

These guys were too dangerous, not a single one could be let go!

Just as Sean Knight finished shooting and was about to reload, he suddenly felt a strong sense of danger and dived into the shrubbery!

Then, he felt a gust of wind flash by his previous position!
