Chapter 228 The Small One Comes, The Big One Comes
Li Xiao guessed correctly.
But at the same time, he also miscalculated.
The two seriously injured young griffons did not reappear the next day...
Because what appeared in the sky of the volcano crater this time were four adult griffons!
Early in the morning, Li Xiao and Zhou Qing were awakened by the gunfire from the automatic turrets. They rushed out of the house with their equipment and saw that the two automatic turrets placed on the top of the rock wall had been activated and were pouring ammunition into the sky.
The target of the automatic turret is to hover over the volcanic crater, trying to get close to the four griffons above the volcanic crater!
Looking closely at these four griffons, they are obviously much larger than the two immature griffons before. Their sharp beaks are shining and their feathers are thicker.
There is nothing childish about his face.
Obviously, these are several adult griffons!
They tried to get closer to the crater, but every time they approached the attack range of the automatic turret, they were forced back by the continuous firepower of the automatic turret.
At this moment, two of the griffins in the group already had bullet wounds on their bodies - before Li Xiao left the house, they had already tried to invade the volcano crater.
"This is a case of beating up a naughty child, and the parents are coming to visit?!"
Li Xiao looked worried——
These griffins came with bad intentions and were obviously here to find a place for the two young griffons yesterday.
This was something he never expected!
At this moment, four griffons were hovering at the edge of the automatic turret's attack range. Although they couldn't get closer for a while, these angry "parents" didn't seem to give up.
When Li Xiao appeared, these guys with excellent eyesight locked their eyes on him and roared with anger, and there was a sudden commotion among the group of griffins hovering in the air.
The furious look that wanted to tear him alive, eat his flesh and swallow his blood made Li Xiao feel frightened.
Fortunately, the bullets continuously sprayed by the automatic turret effectively curbed the opponent's irrational impulses.
As long as the griffins get even slightly closer, the muzzles of the two automatic turrets will be aimed at them, spitting out two continuous webs of fire. As long as the griffons dodge a little slower, there will be a few more bloody bullet holes on their bodies.
The wounds caused by rifle bullets are not considered fatal injuries to a large adult griffon, but the pain caused by the bullets penetrating deeply into the flesh is not something that can be ignored due to its size.
Moreover, with the rate of fire of the machine gun turrets, if these griffins dare to rush down with the crossfire of the two turrets, they will definitely turn into sieved corpses before they hit the ground!
With these two automatic turrets, the range of 100 meters above the volcanic crater has become an insurmountable forbidden area for these griffons!
The griffins did not give up. After testing out the turret's attack range, they hovered outside the turret's locked range, dodging bullets as much as possible, and then stared at the two men on the ground with pairs of sharp, angry eyes.
player.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiaoti felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, it's not a big problem. As long as the turret has enough bullets, these fierce griffin parents can only stare at them from a distance.
Wait, bullet!?
Li Xiao's gaze suddenly turned to the direction of the turret. Under his gaze, the turret high on the cliff top spit out another round of ammunition, and the fire at the muzzle suddenly disappeared.
As the rotating barrel slowly stopped, the overheated red barrel also cooled down little by little, gradually returning to its original metallic black color.
Out of bullets?!
When dealing with the two underage griffins yesterday, Li Xiao filled the ammunition boxes of the two turrets. The two turrets combined had thousands of rounds of ammunition!
Normally, this much ammunition would be enough for two turrets to be used for a while, but Li Xiao forgot that he was annoyed by two griffons yesterday, so he set the firing rate and range of the turrets to the fastest and furthest.
"High Firepower Mode".
They only saw the gryphon suppressed by the turret and dared not approach, but they ignored that behind this powerful firepower was the ammunition that was consumed like water.
"Isn't it?!" Li Xiao screamed strangely, rushed back to the house, stuffed the ammunition stored in the locker into the inventory, and then rushed out of the house without stopping, heading straight for the automatic turret high up.
When a turret ceased fire, the crossfire network defending the aerial griffons immediately collapsed. The remaining turret's meager firepower could no longer pose a threat to the griffons.
Several griffins also quickly discovered this. They looked at each other and stared at the two players again.
The hatred in those eyes was not only for the pain caused by the bleeding wounds, but also for their dying child...
A loud scream made Li Xiao, who was rushing to refill the automatic turret with ammunition, raise his head in shock.
Under his gaze, one of the four gryphons had plummeted towards the ground!
It shouldn't be called "falling", or it would be more appropriate to call it "pounce". This griffon is using its own gravity to forcefully break through the blockade of the automatic turret!
The price of such an impulse is tragic. Under the intelligent locking of the automatic turret, the falling speed cannot avoid all the bullets——
The muzzle of the automatic turret was aimed at its body in a few tenths of a second. Under the continuous firepower, bloody wounds bloomed as the gryphon fell!
The griffon can only curl up its wings as much as possible and use its "not critical" wings to protect its body.
After all, the turret failed to stop it.
The moment it hit the ground, the griffon suddenly flapped its blood-stained wings, and with flying blood drops, it fell headlong into the soft mud beside the lake.
After only three or two seconds of silence, the griffin, covered in a mixture of blood and mud, finally stood up!
It roared at Li Xiao, and its terrifying momentum drove away all the domesticated creatures around it!
Pushing the magazine filled with ammunition to the loading port of the automatic turret, the automatic turret that had stopped firing stood up again. The two turrets each spit out a shuttle of ammunition toward the sky, forcing the remaining three griffins in the sky back again.
Looking at the gryphon roaring at him, Li Xiao showed determination, took out his standard rifle, and jumped from the high platform where the turret was to the roof of his house.
Looking down at the gryphon confronting him in the yard, he understood that what was about to happen would be a real battle between the two "men".
Of course, he can't lose his momentum because of his momentum. He can't show weakness when the opponent yells at him.
So, he became angry and shouted in front of him with a strong voice——
"Alarm clock! This stupid thing fell to the ground! Peel it for me!"
…
Of course, Li Xiao would not engage in a fight himself. The gryphon's fighting ability was not at the same level as his. With its huge body of more than four meters tall, he would have to kneel down if he moved his fingers even slightly.
Count on the standard rifle in his hand?
Don't think about it, except for adding a few "inconsequential" wounds to the griffon, this gun is no different from a fire stick.
Of course, a battle between men is interesting only if they are evenly matched...
