"Everything is normal. There are no attacks. Over." The scouting team sent by the Mayflower Formation started filming and collecting information. Their leader, Amu, who was also known as' Bull's Eye ', was reporting the situation of Death Canyon to Eric Jr. through the walkie-talkie.
Reporter Adam did not dare to film too much of the official team. He stayed far away from them, so as not to delay their work.
The two exploration teams that had been hired with money were very cooperative.
They saw that there was no danger.
Each of them had put on a variety of cool poses for the cameramen to take pictures.
The place where the helicopter landed was a platform that the Mayflower Formation had made with concrete. Due to the harassment of all kinds of insects, it had taken a lot of effort to build it. When they finished laying the platform, the hard ground was not welcomed by the insects. Except for a few stray insects who would come up to take a look out of curiosity, under normal circumstances, the intelligent underground creatures would bypass this platform.
Amu asked his men to move the ammunition boxes from the helicopter and pile them on the edge of the bunker.
"Hurry up. If you don't want to be eaten by the tide of insects before the helicopter arrives, you have to be more prepared. No one can save you here except for the gun in your hand! "Amu shouted as he took the lead.
"What about us?" Adam was in a hurry to film more material. Just watching the soldiers move things would not attract the audience's attention. There had to be something more exciting!
"We can go first. Don't worry, we guarantee that we will be absolutely safe! It's morning now. The cold-blooded animals haven't gotten enough heat yet. They still need to stay in the sun for a long time before they can move. In other words, many of the insects have not woken up yet! The dangerous flying lizards, winged snakes, and crocodile frogs don't move around here. Haha, except for those long-legged spiders that crawl everywhere, we won't encounter any particularly dangerous underground creatures in this area! Although we've entered Death Canyon, we're still on the surface. As long as we don't enter the core area of Death Canyon, we'll be able to maintain enough combat power to wipe out all the bugs that we encounter and complete today's mission! "Evans, the leader of the Spiky Expedition Team, introduced to the camera as he led the way.
"What an easy journey!" Reporter Adam held the microphone and smiled at the camera. "Maybe I shouldn't have brought this little dagger!"
"Hah, you can use it to pick the teeth of the worms!" Sancho, the captain of the other party, laughed at this.
"That's not a bad idea!" Adam shrugged.
On the cliff of the Canyon of Death.
About five kilometers.
A long line of people slowly left the platform.
Evans said that it was absolutely safe, but he was still cautious. His teammates were also careful.
In a place like Death Canyon, all the careless and arrogant fellows would receive free education. After they finished their studies, the graduation ceremony would be their funeral.
"Look, there's a long-legged spider over there!" Adam's eyes were sharp, and he immediately discovered an interesting target.
"Ignore it!" Evans quickly stopped him.
"What?" Adam was stunned.
"Don't provoke monsters like the Long-legged Spiders. These damned bastards, if you kill one, a group of them will come after you. They are social underground creatures. Thousands or even tens of thousands of Long-legged Spiders are under the management of a huge spider queen. If the spider queen finds out that one of her children is missing, she will be angry and take revenge on her enemies. Buddy, believe me, never come face to face with an angry spider queen. Only a few people who have seen it can survive. Never test yourself to see if you have that kind of luck! For a creature as huge as the spider queen, unless we can hit it with a rocket launcher, we won't be able to cause much damage. Alright, let's think of a way to bypass this little spider. I dare say that this little spider must have gotten lost while looking for breakfast. Hopefully, it hasn't discovered us! Luckily, it left. It doesn't seem interested in us. This isn't the spider queen's scout, it's really a lost little spider! "Evans looked relaxed, but his finger never left the trigger of his gun.
"I mean if, if we use a flamethrower and burn it to a crisp, the spider queen won't notice, right?" Adam still wanted to let the audience see the roasted worm. If there was no highlight during the entire exploration, the audience would most likely yawn and change the channel.
"Don't be silly! We don't know what method they use, but there is a certain connection between the spider queen and the little spiders. If the distance is far enough, beyond its maximum range of activity, the spider queen may not come for revenge, but if it's within range, it will be a bad start. We don't want to provoke a terrible spider queen when we've just started. It's as big as a fortress, and our flamethrowers must be saved for the critical moment! Adam, please be patient, we've just started! "Sancho hastily warned Adam not to cause trouble with the Long-legged Spiders, as that was a way of courting death.
"All right!" Adam had to be led by these two leaders, so he had no choice but to continue the boring journey.
They walked for three kilometers.
On the way, they encountered many insects.
Some of them were very timid, and as soon as they saw people approaching, they would scurry away.
Others were not afraid of strangers, and immediately opened their pincers or raised their tails, squeaking to warn the human party not to come near them.
Adam saw a fat insect with its tail raised high, looking very comical, and became curious, "Evans, can you tell me, is this extremely daring insect very powerful?"
"You mean the fat-tailed white insect? Oh no, it's not powerful at all! Even if you lay on the ground and let it gnaw at you, it won't be able to bite you! This insect doesn't eat meat, it's a vegetarian, and its favorite food is rotten wood. Apart from that, it also has a preference for ores, and if it doesn't have ores, it can also eat a pile of mud. It has a good appetite, and it's not picky at all! "Evans explained while shaking his head.
"It doesn't seem to have sharp teeth in its mouth?" Adam went closer and carefully observed it, and found that the insect was only bluffing.
"Why would a mud-eating mouth have teeth?" A member of the exploration party laughed.
"What a pity!" Adam suddenly pulled out a small dagger from his waist, "I thought it would be useful …"
As he said this, he cruelly stabbed the fat white insect's head with the dagger, picked it up, and put it in front of the camera so that the audience could see his first trophy.
The insect struggled with all its might, twisting its fleshy body left and right.
But its struggle was doomed to be futile.
Adam used the dagger to pick up the insect, and held the microphone in one hand, "I don't know if Mr. Wood is reading my follow-up report! If he is, I really want to ask Mr. Wood, if this insect is called the fat-tailed white insect, is it? If it evolves, evolves to become ten times stronger than before, then what will happen to me? Will I let it bite off my hand in one bite? Mr. Wood said that the hostile behavior of humans will speed up their evolution. I wonder how much my attack will speed up this insect's evolution? Dear fat insect, if you can evolve, then please hurry up, because I'm going to kill you soon. If you don't hurry up and evolve, then Mr. Wood might be very troubled! "
The fat-tailed white insect let out a squeak, but Adam threw it to the ground with a smile on his face.
There was a loud smack.
The punctured head splashed out a lot of milky white fluid.
It didn't die, and it struggled to dig the ground with its front claws, as if trying to escape.
"That won't do, my dear little fat worm. Never dig in front of the enemy, and never expose your butt in front of the enemy. This is one of the survival skills. I won't tell it to normal people, but in order to help you evolve, I've decided to teach it to you." Adam stabbed the fat worm's tail with his dagger.
There was a hole in the tail of the insect, and a lot of black fluid and soil leaked out.
Adam smelled a very unpleasant smell, and he frowned, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't stab a fat-tailed white insect, especially its fat tail, because that will give you a stinky reward! Damn it, this smell is too strong, I almost vomited! "
Sancho patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go, there will be more little insects!"
Adam stepped on the fat-tailed white insect fiercely, "Fine!"
Fluid splattered everywhere.
When he thought it was all over, the fat-tailed white insect moved again.
The Fat-tailed White Worm that had been trampled all over by Adam's foot moved again. This time, it did not dig, but instead struggled to crawl, trying to get away from Adam. There were two big holes in its body, and the fluid inside burst out and splashed all over the ground. But it didn't die, and could even crawl.
"What a surprise, is this the evolution that Mr. Wood talked about? Well, to hell with this evolution! "Adam chased after it, and stamped on it with his feet.
He completely stepped on the fat-tailed white insect.
He found a stone.
He swung it.
He hit it repeatedly.
Only when his arms were sore, did he make the last hit, and ruthlessly chiseled the stone into the insect's body.
Adam stood up, and scornfully spat on the ground, "Cute little insect, please think about the huge gap between you and human beings before you evolve. This is not something that can be eliminated by your so-called evolution. Of course, if you can really evolve a little bit of brain, you might kill yourself out of despair! Before I set off, many people warned me not to provoke you little insects. But what I want to say is, you lowly insects should never provoke us, the powerful humans, or you will die a horrible death! "
"What a wonderful declaration of humanity!" Evans laughed. He had taken the money, so he naturally wouldn't stop this kind of show that was specially designed to increase the audience's ratings.
"Well said, Adam, are you going to lead us back to the Garden of Eden?" Sancho was also clapping his hands.
"Come over here," Amu said, and the soldiers followed him.
"What's your order, sir?" Adam eagerly walked over. He thought his heroic actions had won the approval of Captain Amu.
"Listen to me, if you make any more reckless moves and give me more trouble, I'll make you stay here and let you have a good night with those insects!" Amu grabbed Adam by the collar and lifted him up. The cameraman saw that the situation wasn't good, so he quickly shifted the camera. Evans and Sancho were stunned for a moment, but they quickly reacted and put on the cool poses that they had designed for the camera, so that the camera wouldn't take any pictures of them. Five meters away, Amu put Adam down, but he still stared at him with bull-like eyes, "I'm only going to say this once. Do you understand me, idiot?"
"Yes, sir!" Adam was very helpless. Fortunately, he didn't take the pictures, or his image would be ruined.
"…" Amu stared at him again, then turned around and left.
To be honest.
If it weren't for the fear of alerting the insects, he would have shot him in the head.
Killing an insect in the Valley of Death was definitely not a good idea! Even if this insect was not in a group, its splashing fluids and the smell of its corpse after it died were also a good signal source, constantly attracting nearby predators.
No matter what kind of predator it was, it would bring death.
