Chapter 86: Night Sneak Attack
'Boom! '
In the night sky, the sound of shelling resounded.
Lin erected a Styx giant cannon on the edge of the rift valley of the Dinosaur Continent. In fact, this was built at the same time as the forts on the Fungi Island before the Plague War. The fort was used to defend the rift, but Lin later canceled this decision, so only one fort was built.
Because the width of the rift is exactly ten kilometers, it is now used to test how fast the bomb is. Now, Lin is using this rift to test the speed of the bomb, and then continue to improve the speed.
Goal: Cross the chasm in under a second.
'Boom! There was another roaring sound, a rapidly spinning bomb rushed out, and the thick fog above the rift swirled around it, and the armor-piercing bomb flew through the rift at a speed exceeding the speed of sound, and hit the cliff There was a roar.
The sound echoed in the canyon for a long time. Although this power is very powerful, it is still...too slow.
Now the speed of the explosive bomb is at most hundreds of meters per second, but it is simply impossible to reach ten kilometers...
What does the Arabian Nights mean? The word is so weird that it is difficult to explain every sound.
'boom! ’ Lin raised the cannon and fired a bomb at the stars in the sky.
Those light spots seem to be very close, but in fact they are far away... Lin called the place where she couldn't fly as the "obstacle layer", and the "obstacle layer" is actually not far from the ground, about ten kilometers away. But it is an insurmountable obstacle.
Don't know when it will be finished? What will appear after going to the stars? new creatures?
Anyway. It may take a long time to do it, maybe it would be better to explore this world first?
There are too many mysteries in this world. It's a pretty good feeling... how boring would it be if there was nothing to explore?
While Lin was working hard, on the other side of the distant jungle, Tucker was also overcoming an obstacle of his own - the war with other tribes.
Unlike the occasional roar of shelling on the Rift Valley, Tucker's side can be said to be the time when the night is still and the dragon is quiet...
Although Tucker angrily summoned the tribe to attack in the beginning, he calmed down quickly afterwards.
It deliberately waited until night... when the surroundings returned to darkness, it was ready to attack...
Tucker took all the tribes. It’s like going to a distant place to hunt, they will go out in groups, even bring their cubs, this is the characteristic of the skeletal dragon, the cubs will observe actual combat to learn, but usually they will not bring their cubs when hunting in a closer place .
Dozens of skeletal dragons quietly walked through the woods, following the scent in the jungle. Move toward the goal.
The forest at night echoed with the sound of rustling wind. The forest here is darker during the day, and there is no light at night. Tucker leads the team in front. It holds two stones and knocks from time to time. This is what Lin taught them. 'Echolocation'.
Confirm the position of surrounding objects by the sound reflected by knocking on stones. In fact, it doesn't need any sensitive senses, even the skeleton dragon can do it. Although it is impossible to display any detailed images, it can know the position of the surrounding obstacles.
This takes a long time to learn, in fact only Tucker can. The method of practice is also very simple, close your eyes. Perceive the world around you with sound...
Just like Tucker is doing now.
"Stop." Tucker suddenly made a voice, and his tribe immediately stopped.
"Tap." Tucker then knocked on the stone, and then closed his eyes to listen to the sound. Although it was surrounded by darkness, it felt the difference in the surrounding environment, and its sense of smell also smelled the smell of the White Skeleton Dragon from the air. .
For Tucker, the smell is indeed 'stinky'.
"It's here..." Tucker murmured, and it grabbed a small beetle from the skin pouch on its waist and threw it into the air.
The moment the little beetle was thrown out, the four membranous wings in the shell instantly unfolded, and at the same time, a faint green light lit up.
It was a small insect called fluorescent green, it was flying in the air, although the light emitted by the beetle was not very bright, but in this almost pure black environment, it was enough to illuminate the vision ahead for the skeleton dragons .
The eyes of the skeletal dragon also have some night vision capabilities. They can reflect light many times to increase their vision in the dark. What the beetles shed is like a piece of green light. In the green light, a group of shacks appeared in Tucker's in front of you.
Lin has an observing eye following them. Looking at Tucker's movements, Lin feels that it can already be regarded as a very powerful hunter.
"Hey..." Tucker made a low voice, restraining his desire to do it directly, and continued to observe the surrounding environment with the light of the beetle. The group of white skeletal dragons is located in a forest glade, and the white skeletal dragon is the same as the skeletal dragon. They are sleeping in the night, but they will have a 'sentry' awake at night, which walks back and forth among the sheds, watching for danger.
The sentry noticed the small beetle flying over. It tilted its head, looked at the beetle with interest, and stretched out its claws to poke it, but it did not perceive the danger.
Tucker watched the movement of the sentry and felt an emotion called 'satisfaction', and then he began to command his tribe.
"You, five groups, come on." Tucker's voice fell, and the surrounding members immediately climbed up the trees around the open space in groups of five, and each skeletal dragon held three spears.
This level of cooperation is mainly trained when they are hunting. Skeletal dragons are basically like this, using simple words to make quick commands.
Although they cooperate very well, Lin is still a little worried. They rarely hunt prey over a ton, and they rarely fight large carnivorous creatures. Can they fight the white skeleton dragon?
Tucker seems to understand this too, so he is very careful. Even though he is so angry with the white skeleton dragon that he will rush to kill them as soon as he sees them, he still commands very quietly...
The members climbed to a tree more than 20 meters high, and they grabbed the spear with one claw. A claw stretched into the skin bag at the waist.
"Woohoo." A small voice from a member of the tree told Tucker that they were ready.
Tucker took another look at the group of shacks. And the sentry who was playing with the beetle, and then said: "Let it go!"
Under Tucker's order, all the skeletal dragons released a glowing beetle from their skins, and a large number of light spots flew all over the sky, illuminating the glade.
The sentry looked at the splendor in surprise, and was very excited to see such a beautiful scene. It seems that the "aesthetics" of the white skeleton dragon is very close to that of the skeleton dragon.
Lin discovered that many species have an aesthetic sense. It's funny how sometimes one creature finds something ugly and another finds it beautiful.
After more than ten seconds, the sentry seemed to finally realize that there was something abnormal about these flying beetles, and it began to cry. The sound was not high, but it could spread throughout the open space. The white skeleton dragons who were sleeping in the shed began to wake up.
The Tucker group on the tree clenched their spears, and Tucker was waiting for this opportunity.
The heads of the white skeletal dragons protruded from the shed one after another, and they seemed to be a bit like sentry beetles flying around curiously. At this moment, Tucker suddenly yelled: "Shoot!"
'Whoosh! '
The sound of a large number of objects shuttling suddenly sounded in the forest, and the white skeleton dragons looked at the spear protruding from their chests in disbelief. They fell to the ground before they realized what was going on.
At this moment, six white skeleton dragons were pierced through the chest by the spear in an instant, and most of the others were behind the shed or missed. The white skeleton dragons had already reacted, their leader yelled, and all the white skeleton dragons gathered immediately stand up. They looked nervously at the surrounding woods, and the night vision ability of the white skeleton dragon was stronger than that of the skeleton dragon. But it is difficult for them to find the Tucker tribe hiding in the bushes.
Seeing the white skeleton dragons gathered together, Tucker's group immediately started the second round of shooting!
Dozens of spears flew out and pierced the chests of several Baikelongs again. The moment they fell to the ground, the leader of Baikelong finally saw the place where the spears shot out.
"Gah!" Bai Shoulong yelled at a tree, and all the members rushed to that tree immediately! At the same time, Tucker also made an offensive sound, and all the skeleton dragons rushed down from the tree, and they fought with the white skeleton dragon with the last spear that was not thrown.
The two sides were originally in equal numbers, but Baikulong lost 12 members during the attack just now, so the number fell into a weak position.
The skeletal dragons rushed down from the tree and stabbed the white skeletal dragon with their spears, and the white skeletal dragons used wooden sticks to meet them. The strength of the two sides was very close, but the weapons of the skeletal dragons were better, and soon several white skeletal dragons were pierced. , the leader immediately yelled when he saw this, and it rushed into the battlefield without taking anything.
A spear immediately pierced the leader, and the leader immediately grabbed the spear and pulled it over, while the other claw directly pierced the throat of the dragon holding the spear.
Sure enough, the leader was different. Several spears stabbed at the leader again, and he immediately jumped back to avoid it.
Although the leader is very strong, the White Skeleton Dragon's group was slowly pushed back, but they still had an advantage. The small glowing beetles around them slowly flew away. When the surroundings returned to the dark environment, Tucker's group would Can't see clearly.
"Gah!" The leader yelled, and let the remaining white skeleton dragons slowly gather while resisting the spears of the skeleton dragons. The leader seemed to be aware of this problem, so it seemed to be trying to delay time.
"Gah oh!" The leader yelled and commanded, while fighting with the spear he snatched, seeing that the surroundings were about to fall into darkness, they will win!
'Whoosh! '
Suddenly, a stone flew into the leader's wide-open mouth. The leader suddenly seemed to have his trachea stuck, and made a continuous coughing sound, and the spear in his hand fell to the ground.
"Death!" At this moment, among the skeletal dragon group, Tucker jumped out, holding a spear in his hand, and pierced the chest of the leader of the white skeletal dragon in an instant! (to be continued...)
