13. Fire Dragon
A patrol team came not far away, which is a rare three-person hound-free team. A beard is complaining: "Why can they go in to help? We have to circle here!"
A slightly shorter companion next to him echoed: "That's right! Every interesting thing always goes..."
"Okay, go back after this circle quickly, and we still have a chance to see it. If it takes too long, we can't see anything." It seems that the leader among the three people shouted in a low voice.
Old K quietly came behind them and had an idea in mind.
It's a little difficult for him to control the behavior of three people at a time, but two should be OK. For his plan, it is enough to control two people.
The leader of the three walked quickly for a while and suddenly found that no one was behind him. He stopped angry and turned his head to urge. He turned his face and saw that John, the bearded John, was using his particle gun to his head, and couldn't help but be furious: "Enough! Do you really want to go to the logistics department to sweep the toilet for a week?!"
John didn't speak, and Shersha, who was beside him, suddenly smiled and rushed to him and hugged him tightly. Then John's big hand came to cover his mouth. The cold light flashed, and the coolness passed by his neck. He suddenly saw his headless body fall softly to the ground. However, panic is only a momentary thing, and he will never feel anything again.
Two people who killed the captain of their team stood blankly with dull eyes. Old K got out of the shadow, took off the dead man's clothes and changed them for himself, and transferred the other party's weapons to his side, which made him feel much more at ease. Finally, he took out the ID card in his pocket and glanced at it to remember his new identity.
The two people on the side have moved again, bent down and lifted their captain's body and threw them into the shadow of the corner. Although Aban is still alerting the movement in the wall, the fresh corpse is obviously more attractive.
Not long after Old K took John and Shersha away, the body was gnawed away. The thick smell of blood scattered in the air seemed to stimulate the beasts in the wall. The dull roar became more and more endless, and the ground seemed to tremble.
Old K let John and Shersha walk ahead and lowered his brim to follow them. The patrols enter and exit through the small iron gate set in a fixed position, and the guard in the iron gate will naturally not be as strict as the main gate. Old K sneaked in safely and followed John and the others back to their dormitory cabin.
The room is a six-person room. Old K asked the two soldiers to go straight to bed and fall asleep. He searched the room again, and finally left with two flares of a turned over illuminator and walked deeper inside.
In the wall, the roar of the beast was clearer and deafening.
Although he kept telling himself that the most urgent thing now is to find Xiaoding, the roar really attracted Lao K's attention. He finally decided to figure out what it was first. Anyway, the direction of the sound was not much different from the direction he was going.
It's not difficult to find the source of the sound. Not long after walking forward, you can see the firelight reflecting the sky in the depths of darkness, and the roar is mixed with human voices. Obviously, many soldiers have just got up from ** and rushed there with enthusiasm. Their faces are excited and inexplicably: "Can I bet this time?"
Old K wondered if this was an arena-like facility? But in such a place, isn't it strange to start the arena in the middle of the night?
However, the speed was not affected at all. Soon he saw a large open space in front of him, and there was a ten-meter-high cage in the middle of the open space. The surrounding crowd kept a considerable distance from the cage, because the big guy locked in the cage looked very irritable. It nibbled and hit the cage that held it. The huge impact stirred up a large area of sand and dust on the field. Every time the breath spewed by its roar touched the air, it would ignite a large flame.
Lao K was a little surprised that these people hid a fire dragon in the base! This kind of animal is rare throughout Leas, and it is not easy to catch, but these crazy mink are still using it to organize competitive activities.
Someone in the open space commanded the order loudly: "Those who want to watch the battle, please enter the watching area as soon as possible. * You can do it at the management office or bet on the betting machine in the watching area."
Lao K ran along the crowd and was about to enter a facility similar to a small bunker. Suddenly, a beam of strong light hit him directly. He was stunned and subconsciously looked up, but saw Xiaoding waving to him with a smile on the air screen floating in mid-air:
"My partner, please work hard to defeat Al. "I and I," he turned sideways, revealing another identical face behind him, "will watch the whole situation in the command room and look forward to your triumph."
Old K's brain is a little hard to turn around, and he feels that he wants to curse. Xiaoding has considered the possibility of leaving himself and running away directly, but he actually sold himself, which he has never thought of. In Lao K's view, even if it is not right and has fought together, if there is no direct conflict of interest, if you can't be a brother, you won't become an enemy.
At present, the surroundings are very quiet, and almost no other sounds can be heard except for the big guy in the middle cage roaring. With a dozen headlights and such an obvious screen explanation, his impersonated identity was immediately discovered, but no one surrounded him. He couldn't help looking back and forth, day! It turns out that it's not that no one has arrested him, but that they don't need him at all.
I don't know when a very high transparent barrier stood behind him. He didn't give up and took out his gun and bombard it. Because it was not far away, the shock wave from the explosion even made him feel that people were shaking, but the smoke dissipated and the barrier was completely undamaged.
At the same time, the excited roar of the crowd broke out around. He turned around and looked. The cage in the central open space was slowly opening. The monster called Al shook, and his small yellow eyes fixed on Lao K.
Old K's heart was cold, and his whole body shuddered.
Perhaps until just now, he still subconsciously felt that Xiaoding was joking and was never willing to face the possibility that Xiaoding really betrayed him. But at present, he is not allowed to admit it. The monster in front of him has been face to face with only one rise and fall.
Old K quickly rolled over the monster's falling claws, and raised his hand with a shot, and his left hand pulled out the flare that was pinned to his waist, and another shot in the direction of the monster's eyes. Then regardless of the huge explosion sound suddenly behind him, he ran to the opposite side of the open space, and then turned around to carefully look at his opponent.
Lias's own gravity is relatively large. Decades later, an anti-gravity system will be built on the whole Lias to adjust the comfort of the human body. Decades ago, there was no such facility at all. The native animals of Leas are generally not large, but their muscles and bones are strong, and ordinary fighting techniques are difficult to hurt them.
Only fire dragons are absolutely common aliens on Leas. Their height ranges from 8 meters to 15 meters. They are huge and their skin is as hard as iron. Although it is called a fire dragon, it is actually different from a dragon in the traditional sense. In comparison, it may be more like an ostrich.
It's just that this ostrich is too ferocious. The neck is thin and long, with a head about one meter in diameter, and the mouth shell is hard and thick, with a curved hook on the tip of the mouth. The height of more than ten meters makes the length of the legs unusual, almost five or six meters in one step. The body is like a bat, with thin fluff and sharp claws at the front end of the bone wings. The skin of the whole body is uneven, which is naturally sharpened in the environment of Leas's perennial wind and sand.
The flare shot by Lao K before was regarded as an attack by this monster and wanted to swallow it directly. However, because its breath contains a large number of flammable components, it triggers an explosion at high temperature the moment it bites the shell.
It's just that this thing was too hard. Lao K looked at it and found that except for the ** trace of suspected blood stains on the mouth of the huge head, he could hardly see the impact of the huge explosion on it.
But he soon knew where the impact was. After being blown up, the thing finally went crazy, opened its wings, howled and came to peck old K. From its half of his mouth, Lao K saw a bloody tongue hanging down and smelling.
The area of the whole open space is only about 100 square meters, and the monster's bones and wings are now open. Old K only feels that it is all over the monster's attack range, and he can see either the thick bird's legs with sharp claws or the bone wings pounding on the ground, and it is a more terrible bird's beak.
He dodged and tried to drill into the attack blind spot under the monster's body. However, although the size of this thing is huge, it is very flexible, especially the slender neck, which gives it great convenience and can probe almost anywhere.
Although Lias's gravity is only not much larger than that of the earth, it will still cause super-strong loads on the human body under such conditions for a long time. In addition, the flames spewed by the poisonous gas spewed by the fire dragon from time to time can block Lao K's optimistic retreat at any time, so he has to face the pressure that needs to maintain mobility and change the direction. Force; gradually, dodge becomes more and more difficult.
He had not heard the shouts of the audience around him for a long time, and his ears were full of the roar of beasts and the sound of gas raised by the huge flame column. All the bullets just collected around him have been fired, and now Old K has changed back to his small photon gun.
It's just that so much ammunition is shot out, and it is concentrated in the left knee joint of the fire dragon, but the other party is still alive. The place where the concentrated attack is very unrestrained, which naturally greatly increases the pressure of old K.
At this time, all kinds of ideas in his mind were spinning rapidly, without Xiaoding mentioning something. He had to use Julius' memory to think and deal with the current problems by himself. At the same time, he had to pay attention to the scene beside him, and soon he would be completely sweating.
Fortunately, although the fire dragon's offensive is rapid, the overall speed is not very fast. And although it can cross the whole open field in almost two or three steps, it is actually not completely impossible to take it around in the open space.
According to Lao K's observation, this should be related to the fire dragon itself relying too much on the flexible long neck, which causes the huge body to lack sensitive exercise, and the response will naturally be slow. And the intelligence level of this monster may not be very high, at least, it can't be compared with his Aban at all.
Although running for a long time consumes a lot of physical strength, it is still the most economical way to fight for Lao K, who has finally mastered the rhythm of fire dragon attack. This can at least ensure that he will not be turned over by the other party before he figure out how to turn it over.
