Chapter 122: Liquid Bomb
Boom!
Wei Huo was checking the Tech Tree of the traveling caravan when a loud explosion ca from the southeast.
He was a little surprised. “Are they self-exploding sheep? Have they beco so powerful after a few hundred years?”
Wei Huo had the others guard the camp while he rushed in that direction. Soon, he slled a burnt scent. He walked closer and saw that the woods ahead were already burning. Sounds of firewood burning could be heard everywhere.
After passing through the fire curtain, Wei Huo saw charred corpses all over the ground. An ordinary product display platform was surrounded by a few people. Fortunately, the display platform was not damaged, as it was protected by these people.
The players were not afraid of death, but it would be a pity if the product display was destroyed. That was why they had risked their lives to protect it. As long as they were revived, they could co and pick it up again.
Wei Huo walked over and took the display platform away. Upon closer inspection, the items inside it were stones and branches.
The players were very smart. Although these items could be found everywhere and were thus not valuable, they could be used as goods during quests.
Wei Huo poured out the ssy contents and put the display platform into the inventory. At that mont, a self-exploding sheep walked over from the side. One side of its body was still on fire.
Wei Huo looked at it. A mont later, the self-exploding sheep rushed toward Wei Huo and aid its horns at him.
Wei Huo glanced at it. The mont the self-exploding sheep rushed over, he grabbed its horns with one hand and kicked the self-exploding sheep’s leg with the other. He grabbed the fur on its back and put it on his shoulder.
The self-exploding sheep was confused.
It kept kicking in all directions, but Wei Huo grabbed the back of its spine along with its lower half. It could not even roll over. It could only kick wildly.
Wei Huo extinguished the fire on one side of the sheep. He then carried the fat self-exploding sheep through the fire and returned to the camp.
Xiao Bin and the others were curious when they saw Wei Huo carrying a sheep. However, Wei Huo shouted, “Disperse! I want to dissect this guy.”
If a self-exploding sheep died, it would self-destruct. If they ca over to watch out of curiosity, they would explode along with it.
Xiao Bin and the others scattered, only daring to observe from afar.
Wei Huo threw the self-exploding sheep to the ground. The sheep got up and used its horns to hit Wei Huo. However, Wei Huo slapped it on the head and it fainted.
While looking at the unconscious self-exploding sheep, Wei Huo took out his hunting knife and squatted down. He carefully cut open the fur on the back of the self-exploding sheep and avoided its cervical spine. He then cut open its spine and saw a long black tube on its back.
Blood kept flowing out, and the Health nu of the self-exploding sheep showed that it was bleeding.
Wei Huo observed the tube. It was about 50 centiters long, and its diater was similar to a normal paper cup’s. It was also very hard.
Wei Huo was confused. “Did this thing evolve in just a few hundred years? That was just an ordinary TNT explosive. What is this?”
Wei Huo was curious about this thing. He had dissected self-exploding sheep many tis in the past. He had always found TNT explosives in them, but things were different this ti.
Wei Huo wanted to take the tube out. However, he never dared be careless when he did this, let alone this ti. This was mainly because he did not know what the tube was. Based on the sounds of explosion, it should be stronger than TNT.
Wei Huo used his hunting knife to cut open the muscles over the tube. Blood had already dyed the ground red. The self-exploding sheep did not have much life left. It had to be dissected as soon as possible.
Wei Huo’s hands were quick and accurate. Soon, a few pieces of useless muscles had been cut off by Wei Huo. He then saw a ball of flesh that was connected to the black tube. One part of this ball was connected to the spine, while the other was connected to the heart.
The self-exploding sheep’s heartbeat began to weaken. If the heartbeat of the self-exploding sheep stopped, the tube would self-destruct. If the ball of flesh was severed from the spine, the tube would self-destruct as well.
Although the self-exploding device could be triggered easily, Wei Huo had a solution.
“A few hundred years have passed, but the triggering device still hasn’t changed.” Wei Huo took out another bronze knife as he spoke. He then took a deep breath and used his hunting knife to cut the connection point between the self-exploding pipe and the ball of flesh.
The hunting knife was sharp. With just a soft touch, the exposed sheep’s muscles were cut open. However, at that mont, Wei Huo’s other hand grabbed the bronze knife and cut.
The knife cut the blood vessel that connected the ball of flesh and the heart.
Click! When the knife landed, a faint sound of collision ca from the ball. A mont later, a ‘return’ needle shot out of the ball. The needle hit the front end of the black tube at an extrely fast speed. At that mont, Wei Huo attacked as well.
He only turned the hunting knife’s blade 90 degrees diagonally before the needle hit the knife’s blade.
Crack! The sound of bones breaking could be heard. It turned out that the ‘return’ needle was a small bone hidden in a ball of flesh. The bone was aid at the front of the black light. If the collision was successful, it would trigger an explosion.
The two halves of the bone needle were split into two. The two halves then pierced the walls of flesh at an extrely fast speed. Since the needle was blocked, the self-exploding device in the sheep’s body could not be detonated.
Wei Huo took out the black tube after he was done. He shook it and realized that it actually contained liquid.
Was it a liquid bomb?
Wei Huo was not sure what it was, nor could he believe a sheep had been born into a creature’s body. However, creatures could work miracles sotis.
Wei Huo arrived above a small waterfall with the black self-exploding pipe. He planned to test the power of the self-exploding pipe again. He already knew how to use it. He just needed to ram the front end of the self-exploding pipe.
“Don’t co over. I’ll conduct an experint!” Wei Huo told the others. He picked up the self-exploding device and aid it at a stone under the waterfall.
The self-exploding tube was smashed into the waterfall and hit the stone. Then, Wei Huo heard a faint ding!
A mont later, an extrely terrifying explosion took place in the self-exploding tube. A ray of fire soared into the sky, and a terrifying shockwave shattered the surrounding stones. Hot air waves attacked one after another, and the small pond under the waterfall instantly vaporized due to the high temperature. Steam gradually rose, and the air emitted a pungent sll.
The terrifying explosion startled everyone. They had not expected the self-exploding tube in Wei Huo’s hand to be so powerful. The sleeping Tree-Man was awakened as well. He slowly opened his eyes and asked, “What happened? Was there an attack?”
The Tree-Man seed very calm. His long history made him unafraid of any challenges.
Wei Huo said, “It’s alright. I just conducted an experint.”
The Tree-Man said, “It’s okay if you conducted an experint. If you are attacked, please wake up. I...”
Wei Huo said, “I built a traveling caravan. We’re about to leave. Are you planning to join us? If you do, you might have to follow my orders.”
The Tree-Man thought for a long ti and said, “It’s about ti. You’re older than and stronger than . Plus, you saved my life. I should listen to your arrangents.”
Wei Huo was speechless. He was not as old as the Tree-Man, but since the Tree-Man had said so, he would not explain.
Other than Wei Huo, who had the translation system, no one else could understand what the Tree-Man was talking about. Sotis, the Tree-n talked as though they were roaring, with loud and terrifying sounds. However, other tis, their words were like leaves blown by the wind. They were light and pleasant to the ear.
That was probably what the sounds produced by the Tree-Man’s unique voice were like.
