Chapter 240 The Power of Money
Maluru had rolled up his sleeves and was ready to attack, but he stopped when he saw the two men pulling Ace out of the dust.
On the other hand, the successful rescue of his companions also boosted the morale of the hunters who participated in the assessment.
In particular, after discovering that Ace's vital signs were relatively stable and only his leg bones were broken, the fear of the iron-eating scarab in the hearts of others was also reduced a lot.
Dianlu was also very excited at this time. He seemed to have seen the hope of taking down the iron-eating scarab, and was about to make further efforts to saw off the other front leg.
However, at this moment, something strange happened!
A pair of narrow wings suddenly spread out on the back of the golden big insect. As it flapped its wings, it immediately blew the nearby hunters all over the place.
Dianlu saw the sandstorm coming and subconsciously closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he saw the iron-eating scarab flying past him.
Dianlu didn't have time to give the order to disperse and avoid, and was swept by a hind leg.
He felt like he was hit head-on by a sand motorcycle. Several of his ribs were broken on the spot. He flew up and fell more than ten steps away. He lay on the ground and could not get up again.
The iron-eating scarab, which turned on the flight mode, officially began its hunting.
Its speed was more than twice faster than when it was on the ground. The three pairs of legs could be turned into weapons. It didn't even need weapons. It was enough to just rush forward.
The fate of all hunters who were hit was similar to that of Dian Lu. Moreover, because it stayed in the air all the time, the heavy hot cutting saw was useless.
Wherever the iron-eating scarab passed, people and horses fell to the ground, and the hunters who participated in the assessment were in mourning.
Only some wind-type telekinetic ability users were still making the last resistance. They tried to use their abilities to attack the pair of hind wings of the iron-eating scarab.
Compared with the outside of its shell, it was obviously much thinner. However, even if the wind blade slashed on it, it would only make a sound of metal clashing.
The name of the iron-eating scarab beetle is not for nothing. Although this golden insect will also prey on other beasts and humans, its favorite food is iron ore. They eat iron ore just like eating melon seeds.
Most of the iron elements absorbed are also used to strengthen themselves, making their various parts extremely hard. They are one of the most defensive beasts in this desert.
Now not only the hunters who participated in the assessment, but also the hunters who came with the Shuangyanghua Hunting Group felt the pressure.
The speed of casualties has far exceeded control. The assessment is obviously unable to continue. It is necessary to intervene immediately, otherwise it will not be long before there will be casualties.
Pochi has taken out the Wings of Fury, which is a new version that Collet has modified and strengthened. It is lighter and easier to control than the original version.
However, Malu shook his head at Pochi, "It's okay, leave it to me."
After that, he moved his wrists and ankles and walked towards the iron-eating scarab beetle.
At this time, the hunters who came to participate in the assessment were basically no longer able to stand.
Dian Lu used all his strength, but he could only barely prop up half of his body, and looked up at the figure in the distance.
Malu didn't walk fast, just like taking a walk in the park.
He took off his goggles while walking and threw them into the sand.
Thanks to a wave of blessing blind boxes before leaving the city, Malu's current strength, speed, endurance, and reaction speed have increased by 214%, 194%, 159%, and 177% respectively.
Far surpassing other hunters present.
However, the enhancement of these attributes alone is not enough to deal with the iron-eating scarab in front of him.
So Malu has other killers this time.
——【Power of Money: Team members carry electric cards in battle, and the corresponding damage is increased according to the balance in the card. Each kilowatt-hour of electricity will increase the carrier's damage by 0.1%. 】
This golden blessing was obtained by Malu by constantly killing high-star ingredients on the day of the decisive battle. It is a very powerful blessing in itself.
But at that time, Malu had already chosen the blood-sucking flow as the mainstream to build, and the most important thing was that he didn't have a single kWh of electricity on him. Even though he later joined up with Pochi and others, no hunter would carry a huge amount of money when performing a mission that was almost certain to end in death.
So this golden blessing basically didn't play a role in that battle.
But Malu still stuck it back through the sticky net· modified, and it has been kept until now.
Now it can finally come in handy.
After so many hunts, Malu has a deposit of about 3 million kWh of electricity on his card, plus the 1 million bonus promised by the city council, which was finally fulfilled as the city was recaptured.
So Malu now has about 4 million kWh of electricity on his electricity card.
Even if a kWh of electricity only provides 0.1% damage increase, his current damage increase has reached a terrifying 4,000 times.
And that's not all, he has a chef's knife on him, which can provide another 50% damage increase, and it is an independent multiplication area.
This means that Malu can now deal 6,000 times the damage with one strike!
In comparison, the highest limit of King-fist is only a hundred times, so Akira Toriyama is still conservative.
As Malu and the iron-eating scarab beetle got closer and closer, everyone in the Shuangyang Flower Hunting Group couldn't help but open their eyes wide.
Especially those who joined later, they have always been very curious about Malu, the mysterious deputy leader, and his even more mysterious pigeon ability.
Seeing that the millipede was about to approach the iron-eating scarab, some people couldn't help but show worry on their faces.
In any case, it was too bizarre for a person to fight a beast in the Death Zone alone.
Even the most legendary hunter Li in the giant screen couldn't do such a thing.
Human power has its limits after all.
This is why hunters join hunting groups and guilds, and the millipede didn't carry any weapons or equipment that could be used to deal with the iron-eating scarab's hard shell.
He just went up with his bare hands, and looked like a courier delivering food to the opposite side.
The iron-eating scarab obviously thought so too. It was ready to land and eat, and seeing that the millipede dared to approach, it immediately flew towards him again.
Intended to add another dish for itself.
The distance between the two was quickly shortened.
The iron-eating scarab swung a front leg, trying to kick the millipede away like it dealt with those hunters who came to participate in the assessment.
The millipede was still not in a hurry when seeing this, but just stopped where he was, then clenched his right fist and put it at his waist.
The man and the insect attacked almost at the same time!
And their fists and feet collided in the air without any fancy moves!
The world seemed to stop for a moment! ! !
Then the iron-eating scarab began to explode from the place where it touched the millipede.
First the front legs, then its antennae, head, pronotum, all the way to the elytra, and the hind wings all turned into a pool of blood mist.
In the end, only one hind leg was spared, falling alone from the sky.
