Chapter 38 Desert Fire Scorpion

The brilliance dissipated, and the scorching wind blew fine gravel into his face, covering Li Zheng's head and face.

"Bah, bah, bah!"

Caught off guard, Li Zheng took a mouthful of broken sand and spat again and again.

"嘤嘤!Tuituitui!"

Sakura was lying on the edge of her pocket, shouting and spitting out the sand in her mouth.

Li Zheng grabbed it out, put it in his chest, and comforted it: "You stay in the inner pocket first, and I will let you out in the next room."

"Hey."

Sakura slipped safely into the small lining pocket, not daring to move.

After placing Sakura, Li Zheng looked up at the room, holding the Desert Eagle he took out when he entered the door.

After two days of exploration, Li Zheng was no longer the former Amen under Wu, and he knew that weapons must be at hand at all times.

Even if it only takes a moment to take out items from the capsule residence.

"It's actually a non-metal house again. This is... a desert?"

The land was covered with golden sand, and the hot wind from unknown direction swept across, bringing up the dust all over the sky.

Looking up, through the gray dust, you can vaguely see the blue sky, with a scorching sun hanging high in the sky.

"Is this the real sky? Or is it simulated through some kind of technological means?" Li Zheng was surprised.

It's a pity that the gravity shoes are now useless, otherwise he could go up and find out.

The desert room is vast and vast. At first glance, except for the sand, it is still sand. There is not even a single cactus on earth that can survive in the desert.

Li Zheng clenched the sand eagle in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and looked around: "The Eye of Prells prompted that there is a bronze-level creature here, but there is no movement at all after coming in for so long. It should be hiding somewhere, waiting for help."

I'll give you a fatal blow, don't be careless."

The dust in the sky blocked his sight, and Li Zheng couldn't see very far, so he could only walk deep into the desert.

Li Zheng raised his ears and listened attentively. Li Zheng didn't dare to let go of even the slightest movement, and his eyes scanned the surroundings from time to time.

"The soles of my feet feel soft but firm, which means the sand in this room is very thick."

Looking at his feet, Li Zheng was wearing the same pair of casual shoes he had worn when entering the matrix. He dug his feet twice and found that no metal ground was exposed. "The bronze-level creature should be small in size and can crawl under the sand. There is a high probability that it will be able to crawl under the sand."

There will be a sneak attack on the way."

Li Zheng was thinking, and suddenly his heart moved.

"I wonder if the Eyes of Prells can see through the dangers under the sand?"

Just try and you will find out.

Li Zheng raised his head, resisting the discomfort of gravel flying into his eyes, and tried to look ahead.

Sure enough, the Eye of Prells displayed an information prompt:

[Go in this direction, and after fifteen minutes you will see the door to the next room.]

"There's a show!"

Li Zheng was overjoyed. Although there was no specific information about the next room, for him, at least he could move forward in this direction with confidence.

Look to the left:

[Go in this direction, and after eighteen minutes you will see the door to the next room.]

right:

[Congratulations, after choosing the wrong answer twice, you finally found the right path. Go in this direction, you will encounter an attack in five minutes.]

"???"

Li Zheng was fascinated. Ever since he detected the gold treasure chest, the Eye of Prells seemed to be broken. Sometimes the prompt information given would have a... tone like that of a shady netizen.

"Is it possible that a piece of technological equipment can produce consciousness?"

This idea flashed through Li Zheng's mind, and he immediately felt funny, "Isn't that a story setting in a science fiction movie? Will he be invaded by a virus in the future, transform into the ultimate villain, and compete with me for the heroine?"

Shaking his head, he shook this thought out of his mind.

I have watched too many Bollywood movies to think this way.

"Let's go over and see what kind of monster it is. I don't know how to take the initiative to attack, so I just stay at home and wait."

He lifted his feet and walked to the right. After a while, the Eye of Preles gave another prompt:

[There is a "lazy" creature hidden under the dirt bag ahead. You can choose to take a detour or shoot now. 】

"Bump?"

Li Zheng looked in the direction. At the end of his sight, he could barely see a bulge the size of a millstone on the gentle sand.

The bulge is not large, and Li Zheng might not have been able to notice it if it hadn't been for the prompt given by the Eye of Prells.

"The word lazy is in quotation marks?"

Li Zheng studied it carefully and felt that the so-called laziness was not laziness at all, but had another hidden meaning.

"The Eye of Prells gave prompt prompts. In this environment, the current distance is the limit of the effective range for me."

Raise the gun, aim, shoot!

The movement in one go caused a loud blast of gunfire.

It was just an ordinary shot. The energy bullet passed through the gray air and hit the bulge on the sand surface in the blink of an eye.

"hiss!!!"

This shot seemed to anger the creature. After a miserable hiss, the sand surface suddenly rose, and a creature as big as a millstone emerged from it.

"Picture book!"

Turn on the scan function and lock the target.

Di.

【Desert Fire Scorpion

Bronze

A creature covered in thick carapace, it lives alone and moves in desert terrain as if it were on flat ground.

When not hunting, it likes to hide in the sand.

Ability: Fusha, Poison

Weaknesses: mouthparts, weak ice]

Li Zheng glanced at the interface and took in all the information about the Desert Fire Scorpion. "No wonder the Eye of Prells reminds me that the threat level is low, and it is another weakness that I have to restrain."

"Hi~ka!"

The Desert Fire Scorpion had already discovered Li Zheng, raised its head and roared, swung its limbs, moved in a staggered manner, and sprinted on the sand, with a speed comparable to that of a battery car!

Under the gray-yellow carapace were exposed two insect eyes with a cold glint, locked firmly on Li Zheng who dared to provoke him.

In its eyes, with such a weak body without a carapace, as long as it is caught by itself and cut by the giant turtle, the opponent will be cut into two pieces.

Just like the prey that was eaten up not long ago.

"The speed is quite fast, but it's a pity that I met you..."

Li Zheng calmly looked at the Desert Fire Scorpion sprinting over, slowly switched the Desert Eagle to the special shooting mode, and said something silently in his heart.

"Ice and Fire Attached·Ice Element!"

Whoosh!

The Desert Eagle opened fire, and the snake grass needles were wrapped in ice-blue cold air. The temperature was extremely low, and turned into brilliant ice bullets, which shot into a line towards the Desert Fire Scorpion.

After switching to the special shooting mode, the recoil of the Desert Eagle was almost non-existent. Li Zheng was not worried that his continuous and rapid shooting would affect the shooting accuracy.

"Um?"

Li Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "This kind of shooting feel... I seem to be able to make it more accurate!"

The hand holding the gun is as steady as a rock, and he makes very subtle adjustments every time he fires the gun.

Shot after shot, snake-grass needle after snake-grass needle was fired.

Snapped!

An ice bullet was dodged by the Desert Fire Scorpion. The bullet originally aimed at the weak point of the mouthparts hit its carapace, and the ice needles shattered.

"Hiss~~!"

The Desert Fire Scorpion roared in pain, and then several rounds of ice bullets hit it. The intense pain was transmitted to the brain and received by the nerves.

Only then did it realize that after the seemingly fragile bullet shattered, it easily shattered its hard carapace into sieves.

A large amount of khaki mucus overflowed from the wound. Driven by instinct, the desert fire scorpion suddenly felt frightened and turned its limbs in an attempt to escape.

Its not-so-intelligent brain couldn't figure out how this seemingly weak creature could hurt itself.

Even if you don't escape quickly, the other party is fully capable of killing you!

escape!

Anyway, you have more than one territory, just run away!

The Desert Fire Scorpion turned around at a faster speed, desperate to escape.

Before it got within ten meters of Li Zheng, it was already frightened.

"Want to leave?"

Li Zheng sneered, turned the muzzle of his gun, aimed at the joints of the Desert Fire Scorpion, and continued shooting.

Boo hoo hoo.

Bang bang bang!

Even though the Desert Fire Scorpion has increased its speed, it still cannot avoid being hit by a gun and having its limbs broken.

"I didn't expect that after the neural response speed was improved, there would also be positive feedback on shooting."

Li Zheng looked at the Desert Fire Scorpion, which was struggling on the ground with all its limbs severed, and calmly filled the magazine with snake grass needles.

"Although the recoil of the Desert Eagle's special shooting mode is very small, there is still a subtle impact."

Li Zheng reset the magazine and did not get close. He directly raised the gun and fired. It was like hitting an immovable target at a shooting range and firing the gun.

"But since I drank the black iron grade gene potion just now, this kind of impact is not worth mentioning to me."

"This is the real thing, always hitting the target!"

Whoosh!

After another twenty shots of snake grass injections, the Desert Fire Scorpion finally stopped struggling. The sand around him was soaked in a large area of ​​earthy yellow mucus, exuding a fishy smell.

"Well, with two magazine compartments, I've almost mastered the current reaction speed."

Li Zheng nodded with satisfaction, and after confirming through the Eye of Prells that the Desert Fire Scorpion was completely dead, he approached.
