The most eye-catching part of the giant blood worm was its mouth.
This thing was composed of a ring of muscles. Its mouth was densely covered with curved and interlaced fangs that were more than 8 centimeters long. Its unique physiological structure allowed it to open its mouth to an astonishing extent.
Two extremely small eyeballs were deeply sunken under the skin. If it weren't for the thick gray translucent membrane outside, it would be difficult to notice them at a glance.
Not only were they huge in size and ferocious in appearance, but what was more terrifying was that the saliva secreted by the giant blood worm contained neurotoxins. Once the prey was sprayed by the saliva, the prey would be instantly paralyzed and lose the ability to resist.
The giant blood worm was a large worm creature. It had no spine and was good at digging underground. It relied on passing through the soil to find food.
They mostly fed on meat and were extremely large, almost several times larger than pythons. Even if a large yak was placed in front of them, the giant blood worm could kill it and swallow it.
When it was difficult to catch large prey, the giant blood worm would also go to the swamp to devour an insect called "Bordeaux worm".
This kind of insect looked like a tadpole. It was everywhere in the swamp. Its population was huge, and it was at the end of the food chain. You could understand it as the combination of the number of ants, the viability of cockroaches, and the size of the tadpole.
However, eating "Bordeaux worm" for a long time would also cause the giant blood worm to be malnourished and even have reproductive problems. So as long as there was prey, the giant blood worm would most likely rush to hunt!
At this time, Fang Linyan noticed that not only the convoy in front of him was attacked, but even the inside of the new Guardian Fortress was in chaos! Gunshots and screams came one after another.
Obviously, the giant blood worm that could shuttle in and out of the ground at will also drilled a hole to bypass the outer wall of the fortress and directly attacked the inside of the new Guardian Fortress!
Vulture said in a deep voice,
"Be careful, this should be the area of the Growth Hunter mission, so the difficulty is too high. I can't detect most of its specific information. I only know that they are elite creatures!"
Hank and the others could not help but gasp at the sudden attack. The monsters outside were hard enough to deal with. They did not expect that the invincible fortress would be penetrated by the enemy!
There was a saying that distant water couldn't quench a present thirst. They didn't have time to think so much at this time. They could only think about getting through the current difficulties first.
When the convoy was attacked, they only panicked for a moment. The soldiers who went out to carry out the mission were all elites. Then, they began to fight back.
The last six-wheeled "Bradley" APC also began to slowly retreat. The Gatling gun turret on top of the vehicle also turned its muzzle, locked onto a Giant Bloodworm, and began to madly fire.
Not only that, but the rest of the soldiers in exoskeleton armor also followed the combat drill and strictly followed the order of the tank to fire with all their might.
Unfortunately, the Giant Bloodworm's vitality was extremely tenacious. Under their counterattack, only one of them was killed.
The other Giant Bloodworms also spat out acid to attack the enemy. The acid was extremely lethal to both soldiers and armored vehicles.
There was also a heavily injured Giant Bloodworm that went berserk and wrapped itself around the APC that had fallen into the pit.
It gnawed and bit the APC with its huge mouth full of sharp teeth, constantly spitting acid. A large amount of white foam appeared on the metal surface of the APC, and it also emitted a creaking sound that made one's teeth ache. It was obviously only a matter of time before the APC was corroded and penetrated.
The six-wheeled "Bradley" APC was quickly destroyed by the concentrated acid attack of the monsters. The miserable screams of the soldiers could be heard on the battlefield one after another.
There was no doubt that the convoy was in a desperate situation!
But at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out. While in mid-air, he performed an extreme reverse dunk. The outline of his body was stretched to the extreme.
However, he wasn't holding a basketball in his hand, but a crimson spear!
The spear was still burning with raging flames.
The next second, the spear left his hand and shot out!!!
After the spear left his hand, it left a faint spiral trail in the air behind it, instantly piercing through the heavily injured Giant Bloodworm's head.
It could be seen that the wound of the Giant Bloodworm was burning with raging flames.
Although the Giant Bloodworm struggled frantically and a large amount of body fluid gushed out of its wound, the raging flames directly engulfed it and burned it to ashes.
Not only that, but the spear also directly pierced through the Giant Bloodworm.
Then, it drew a strange arc in the air and nailed a smaller Giant Bloodworm to the ground.
The Giant Bloodworm that was pierced in the back vomited a large amount of green foam from its mouth, then broke in two like an earthworm.
The second half of the Giant Bloodworm was still stuck in the ground by the spear, while the first half of the Giant Bloodworm let out a hoarse cry of pain. It drilled into the pit next to it and fled in panic.
The power of this spear was truly breathtaking just by looking at it from afar.
The Giant Bloodworm that had been killed was the largest, and it seemed to be the leader of the entire group. Its burning corpse looked very intimidating, and the other Giant Bloodworm that had fled had cut off its tail in order to survive. As a result, the attacks of the other Giant Bloodworms had been halted.
The people of the convoy seized this opportunity and began to evacuate quickly.
Goat, who witnessed the shocking spear, murmured,
"Is this the strength of a Growth Hunter? It's really terrifying! "
Vulture added,
"After that person launched the spear, he seemed to have lost his combat power. I saw it very clearly. He lost his center of gravity and balance and fell down. If someone didn't catch him, his head would have hit the ground."
Fang Linyan suddenly said,
"We should know the guy who caught him."
Vulture and Goat asked curiously,
"Who is it?"
Fang Linyan said,
"Do you remember the sharp-faced man who took the shuttle with us? Only the 4 of us didn't vomit in the entire cabin. "
Goat said,
"Oh, it turns out to be him. This guy must be under a lot of pressure following a Growth Hunter … Wait, is he also a Growth Hunter?"
"And there's another guy who didn't vomit on the shuttle. It's Miller from the Porcupine Squad."
Fang Linyan said,
"Miller is an aborigine, so he can't be counted … By the way, I saw one of the people who escaped just now look like Miller."
"If the 2 of them are together, then do you think it's possible that Miller is an important plot character, and these 2 guys are here to protect him?"
Vulture asked curiously,
"Where is Miller? I saw him, it's really him! "
The chaotic gunshots and hoarse howls were woven together, making people feel like they were in hell. At the same time, the chaotic sounds and bloody smell from here attracted a dozen more thorn beasts!
At this time, seeing that the allies were attacked again, and the giant blood worm seemed to be suppressed, Hank also decisively ordered his subordinates to fire to help.
This time, Hank was chosen to be an escort because his squad was made up of elites. There were a total of fifteen people, and all of them were wearing exoskeleton armor. In addition to being equipped with a modified K3 electromagnetic rifle, each of them could also fire two powerful stun grenades.
As soon as they took action, the pressure on the convoy was greatly reduced.
However, it was originally a night battle, and Hank's attack also attracted a giant blood worm, so the soldiers retreated while fighting. Soon, the squad's formation was disrupted, and Fang Linyan and the other 2 who were protected in the center were exposed.
Seeing a Spike Beast charging towards them, Vulture checked and found that most of the Spike Beasts were????. It should be because of the world's difficulty.
So the 3 of them looked at each other, and they already had a tacit understanding. They planned to see how strong this monster was in actual combat.
After all, this should be the main battlefield of the Growth Hunters, so the world's difficulty would definitely increase accordingly. This thorn beast should be the best target to practice.
Fang Linyan, who activated Athena's Blessing, naturally stood in front. Vulture had already shot out a flying knife directly, and Goat began to chant a fireball!
Because there were also Growth Hunters in the distance, they might pay attention to this, so the 3 of them were quite conservative.
Fang Linyan directly used Dragon Flash to slowly hack. The summoned Silmarillion and treant were indispensable in this kind of protracted battle.
Goat was slowly casting a fireball.
Vulture was naturally throwing a flying knife. If the flying knife he used was a normal attack, it would directly throw out a blade-shaped energy. Otherwise, just throwing a flying knife would make him bankrupt.
Soon, the Thorn Beast was killed on the spot. Unfortunately, it didn't drop anything. Vulture began to calculate.
"Its defense is about 10 points, and its health is not much, less than 1000 points."
Goat said curiously,
"Then it doesn't seem difficult to deal with it."
Fang Linyan shook his head and said,
"I deliberately exposed a flaw just now and let it block it. Guess how much damage it received."
Goat said,
"How much."
Fang Linyan said,
"You don't want to hear this number … 37 points."
Goat took a deep breath when he heard it! After Fang Linyan activated Athena's Blessing at this time, his personal defense could even reduce damage by more than 60%. In other words, the theoretical attack power of this ordinary thorn beast was even close to 90 points.
In other words, as long as Goat was surrounded by 2 thorn beasts, it was not much different from an ordinary person encountering a Siberian tiger on a narrow road. It could only cry silently.
The battle ended quickly. Naturally, Hank and the remaining soldiers of the convoy gathered together. At this time, both sides must form a team to keep each other warm.
At this time, a blond man walked over to the 3 of them with a smile on his face,
"Hi, 3 of you, I'm Merte. Thank you for your previous support."
