Chapter 178: Attack
Deep in the dense forest, inside a wooden house.
A Mountain Man holding a broken arm ran to the wooden house in panic.
It let out meaningless roars from its mouth, pointing repeatedly at the dense forest behind it.
Thump... Thump.
Then the ground suddenly shook.
A huge shadow appeared from behind the wooden house.
Judging from its appearance, it also seemed to be a Mountain Man, but it was almost as tall as the tree canopy.
There were many pustules on its body, from which dark yellow gas spewed out from time to time, like breathing.
The broken-armed Mountain Man lay on the ground, its body trembling uncontrollably.
But in the next second, a thick tentacle inserted into its brain.
Accompanied by a gurgling sound, the body of the broken-armed Mountain Man quickly shriveled.
And the tall Mountain Man also learned the other party's memory.
"..."
It seemed extremely angry; the pustules on its body contracted and spewed constantly, making a sharp whistling sound.
Before long, movements appeared in the nearby dense forest, and a large number of Mountain Men appeared within.
"Ugh... Ah..."
At this time, a scream came from inside the wooden house.
The tall Mountain Man turned its head immediately, and the people beside it hurried in.
Inside the wooden house, a female Mountain Man lay on the dining table, her belly bulging high.
Not long after, she gave birth to a child.
The Mountain Man who came to check hurried out again and reported the news.
The tall Mountain Man nodded.
Then it waved its hand forward, and all the nearby Mountain Men walked towards the outskirts of the dense forest.
Jones and Elena had walked halfway when they discovered the figure of a Mountain Man in the forest.
With previous experience, the two quickly caught it.
But they were just ordinary people and couldn't communicate with it like the priest, plus they had to hurry.
Therefore, the two decided to kill this monster.
This was also mentioned by Mr. Priest: Remember to double tap!
A sharp dagger quickly pierced into the Mountain Man's joint.
Although it couldn't feel pain, witnessing itself being dismembered was indeed not a good thing.
The Mountain Man struggled hard but to no avail.
Just like that, black-red blood soaked Jones's collar.
"Hey, this guy actually has a Rolex; wonder which unlucky guy it was taken from." He picked up a watch excitedly.
But he found Elena opposite him frozen in place, with deep fear in her eyes.
"What happened?"
Jones turned his head curiously, but then his body trembled uncontrollably.
Many Mountain Men stood in the bushes; he counted dozens roughly.
And among them was an extremely tall figure.
Jones and Elena couldn't believe their eyes; this was simply a monster!
But what made the two even more desperate was.
Just now these Mountain Men witnessed the whole process of them dismembering their kind.
At this time, the eyes looking at the two were only fierce.
"Fa... Father, I was wrong!"
Jones's pant legs were wet in a large patch.
"Help me!" he shouted loudly.
Before long, two miserable screams echoed in the forest.
The program crew resting also heard the movement.
Dale immediately ordered everyone to be on guard, and only then discovered that two people were missing.
"Damn it, these two idiots!" He gritted his teeth.
In military operations, any rash private action is extremely stupid.
Because this is likely to expose one's whereabouts.
Sure enough, before Dale could contact William, vibrations suddenly came from the ground.
Immediately after, everyone present discovered a large number of Mountain Men figures.
And the tallest Mountain Man among them was holding a person tightly in its hand.
"Save me." Elena's tears ruined her makeup.
But no one present dared to move.
Facing that kind of monster, Dale almost lost the courage to resist.
In the next moment, under everyone's shocked gazes.
The tall Mountain Man bit Elena with its huge mouth.
With a squelch, only half of the hot beauty's body remained.
Nina covered her mouth in horror.
Although she didn't like this woman who used her body for benefits.
But seeing the other party die so miserably at this time gave Nina a feeling of sympathy for a fellow sufferer.
She didn't look for Jones's figure.
The two were in the same team, but now only Elena remained.
The latter's fate could be imagined.
"Don't panic! Gather together first!" Dale shouted.
Worthy of being a soldier who had participated in wars, he could react quickly even in this situation.
The squads hurriedly gathered in one place.
Michael's legs were shaking like a sieve, but he still aimed the camera at the tall Mountain Man.
"Oh! My God, such monsters really exist; this time I will definitely become famous in Hollywood!"
Dale gave several bottles of Holy Water to several people.
"This is the Holy Water given by the priest before leaving; it has a restraining effect on these monsters."
His tone was serious.
"I will fire a warning shot later. As long as we can hold on until the priest returns, we will be saved."
The reason why Dale took out the holy artifacts in advance was to stabilize everyone's emotions.
At this time, the most fearful thing was someone running away.
Once that happened, the team would collapse instantly.
Then everyone would become prey.
Only by sticking together and cooperating was there a glimmer of hope.
Everyone took it with heavy faces, then hid behind trees respectively.
According to the Safety Rules, when staying in a certain location, defensive measures must be arranged nearby.
Therefore, they had already set up some traps in the bushes.
Accompanied by a sharp whistle, the Mountain Men opposite began to move.
Roars resounded through the forest.
Jake held a long knife tightly with both hands, which was obtained from the previously captured Mountain Man.
Flying axes and arrows passed by from time to time.
He tried his best to calm his breathing, constantly estimating the distance between the Mountain Man and himself.
"Father William was right; these Mountain Men have low intelligence." He thought to himself.
Throwing weapons aimlessly like this was just a waste of effort.
And Jake had been waiting for an opportunity.
"When facing danger, observe carefully and put all your strength on the only opportunity."
He recalled the content of the manual.
Before long, a Mountain Man rushed close.
Immediately after, it slipped under its feet, and its body lost balance instantly.
This was a trap Jake had set up long ago.
"Haaa!"
He seized the opportunity immediately, and the long knife in his hand slashed across the Mountain Man's head.
Splurt.
A pillar of blood gushed out.
But Jake didn't stop; he immediately grabbed the corpse and blocked it in front of him.
Thwack... Thwack.
In the next moment, the headless Mountain Man's corpse was covered with arrows.
Jake retreated quickly, piled the corpse by the tree root as cover, and then looked for the next opportunity.
Such scenes also happened at several nearby trees.
For a time, the Mountain Men's offensive actually slowed down.
A trace of hope surged in everyone's heart.
At this moment, they truly understood the importance of the "Safety Rules."
Almost every point corresponded to a fatal crisis.
Precisely because of the prior warning in the "Manual," everyone present could repeatedly escape death.
This surprised them inwardly.
How many people lost their lives to compile those lessons in the "Manual"?
On the other side.
Seeing the prey daring to resist, the tall Mountain Man clenched its fist immediately.
Then the pustules on its body began to contract and expand violently.
A large amount of dark yellow gas spewed out and soon filled the dense forest.
For a time, the surrounding visibility dropped instantly.
Everyone in the program crew soon discovered this anomaly.
