994: Chapter 44 Picking Up a Bargain 994: Chapter 44 Picking Up a Bargain “Help…” The unlucky newbie hadn’t yet managed to squeak out the word ‘life’ when an Alien Bug’s sharp tail pierced through his skull from behind like an arrow, nailing him to the ground.
The other three newbies who successfully jumped through the car windows and saw this scene imdiately stopped in their tracks, unsure of what to do.
The Alien Bugs didn’t care about this and instantly began to pounce, while at the sa ti violently flinging their tails to hurl the corpse stuck on them outwards.
The newbies scattered like ants doused in hot water, but there would always be an unlucky guy; Alien Bugs excelled in running, so the newbies they targeted had only one path – death.
Another unfortunate soul was knocked down, struggled a couple of tis, and with a swipe of the Alien Bug’s claw, his brain was burst.
Qin Yan thrust her Tang Sword into the belly of an Alien Bug, and the splashing blood that got on her even corroded.
The other Conquerors didn’t have ti to protect the newbies and were attacking the bugs around them with all their might to ensure their own safety.
Two Alien Bugs lunged at Dantai, and the deputy group leader released a ntal Impact.
The insect’s body, hovering in mid-air, crashed straight down as if struck by a massive hamr, and before it could rise, he blasted it away with his gun.
“Their skin is so tough; we need support!” These creatures had a chitinous layer on their skin that was incredibly hard.
It took three Magnetic Storm Balls to break through the sa spot, and for Zeng Fanghai’s Thunderstorm rifle, it was even more difficult to penetrate, not to ntion Ordinary Firearms, which couldn’t get through their defenses at all.
“Form up, rely on the Humr, establish a defense.” Tong Ping began to command the squad, with no intention whatsoever to look out for the newbies.
“Brother Lin, Bai Guo, go and help the newbies.” As soon as Dantai, ard with Hellfire, finished speaking, he was already soaring to the top of the bus, killing those Alien Bugs, then eradicating the surrounding ones.
With the first wave of bugs buying ti, the rustling sound in the jungle grew louder as more Alien Bugs rushed in, joining the hunt.
“We should retreat; otherwise, we’ll be surrounded.” Zheng Xiaxia shouted, urging everyone to leave.
“Even Tang Zheng can make mistakes.
With so many bugs, why weren’t they detected?” Xu Nian finally found a handle to attack Tang Zheng.
“The radar couldn’t scan them at all.
How was he supposed to find them?
Besides, these bugs clearly gathered after Tang Zheng left; even if he had eyes in the back of his head, he couldn’t have seen them.” Lu Fan scolded Xu Nian, sensing that this guy was being unreasonable.
“It’s just bad luck to encounter such an ambush.
There’s nothing we can do.” Dantai also felt helpless.
The radar was ineffective against the bugs, and by the ti you could see them with the naked eye, they were already upon you.
Moreover, this was their ho turf.
It would be strange if a mixed squad wasn’t in disarray, though the Conquerors were basically safe, it was the casualties among the newbies that were too great.
It took three minutes to deal with all the Alien Bugs, leaving behind nine mutilated corpses, all newbies.
“Alright, stop looking.
Let’s go!” Dantai waved his hand, directing everyone to board a bus that Lu Fan had just brought out.
The newbies didn’t speak, silently heading to the bus, and the atmosphere was pushed to an extre level of oppression by the sll of blood in the air and the stench of the bug corpses.
“No, I won’t get on the bus, I don’t want to die.” When it was a certain female newbie’s turn, just as one of her feet stepped on, a look of terror crept over her face.
She refused to move, crouched there wailing and crying.
“Pull her up!” Xu Nian roared, but sadly no one heeded his command.
The newbies all stood to the side, silently protesting, blaming the Conquerors.
“Why don’t you help us more if you can?” Unable to bear the silence, a female newbie challenged Dantai before bursting into tears, infecting the other scared newbies, who also started sobbing.
“We don’t owe you anything, do we?” Zheng Xiaxia felt the newbies’ logic was flawed.
“Helping you is a moral duty, not helping is also not wrong.
What’s next?
Planning on crucifying us on the pillory of sha and interrogation?”
“If you don’t trust us, then leave.
It’s not like we’re stopping you?” Xu Nian had been annoyed by the newbies and couldn’t wait for them to scram.
“If Dantai and Bai Guo hadn’t intervened, you would all be dead by now.” Xu Biyun frowned, believing that the Conquerors had done more than enough; even the Instant Noodle Team wouldn’t bother caring about them.
The newbies also ca to grips with this realization, but they couldn’t accept the answer.
“Why do we have to go through this agony?
If we’re dead, we’re dead.
Do we have to be whipped as corpses too?” Long-haired Yu i cried, her body trembling nonstop, “What’s the point of this Trojan Horse Ga?”
“Sorry, we don’t know either.” Dantai also wanted to reach the Holy Land to understand what Trojan was all about.
“It’s so unfair.
This ga is pretty much a gamble of survival for newcors.” Square-faced Jian Fan sighed too, “It’s too difficult.”
“If you live to return, you can complain to the Silver Trojan.” Tong Ping felt powerless.
By this point, the chances of newbies’ survival depended entirely on the Conquerors.
They were like reserve mbers, who could only survive if they proved their value and gained recognition and assistance from the Conquerors; rely relying on oneself, unless one was an impossibly strong genius, wouldn’t make it to the end.
“Get on the bus.
What you need to do now isn’t to complain, but to learn how to better survive.
Brother Lin, could you please share so survival experience with them?” To soothe the newbies, Dantai had the Old Soldier step in.
