2343 Fierce battle in the forest (1)
In a one-on-one battle, none of these enemies were Tang Zhen’s match.
The explosive increase in strength and speed caused Tang Zhen to become confident and not afraid of battle.
However, these enemies had guns in their hands, which made him very afraid. If it was not necessary, he would never take these killing weapons head-on, as it was equivalent to seeking death.
A body made of flesh and blood could not withstand steel. This mortal thought still affected Tang Zhen. However, he did not know that Tang Zhen had already reached a level that a mortal could not imagine.
Even the most terrifying nuclear weapon would not be able to cause him any harm, let alone ordinary metal bullets.
In a situation where he had sealed off his original memories, such thoughts were normal. Courage was important in battle, but it also required him to judge the situation.
If one wanted to be a reckless man on the battlefield, one had to have enough strength. Otherwise, one would only be worthy of being cannon fodder.
Just as Tang Zhen was silently thinking, the situation in the dense forest suddenly changed. A battle would begin at any moment.
In fact, there was no need for Tang Zhen to deliberately guide them. The long-haired monster and the pursuing enemies had already discovered each other.
A misunderstanding was formed. The long-haired monster thought that the humans had killed their companions, and the middle-aged cultivator’s side had the same thought.
It could be said that the battle had already begun when they discovered each other, unless one side took the initiative to retreat.
It was impossible for the middle-aged cultivator to retreat. It was not easy for him to get such a rare opportunity, so how could he miss it?
The appearance of the long-haired monster didn’t shock him too much. It should be known that wherever there was a treasure, there would be a ferocious beast guarding it.
The long-haired monster here could only mean that the treasure’s level was higher, far beyond his original expectations.
This made the middle-aged cultivator even more excited. At the same time, he secretly made up his mind to get it at all costs.
As for the long-haired monsters, they were the rulers of this primitive forest. They rarely appeared, and many treasure hunters did not even know of their existence.
Originally, they would have continued to hide. However, the treasure land that Tang Zhen had unintentionally conjured had successfully attracted these long-haired monsters and treated them as his own.
If one observed carefully, they would find that these long-haired monsters were located around the place where he had excavated the raw gemstone Mine.
The reason why the long-haired monster did this was because the land under its feet had been forcibly transformed into a paradise by Tang Zhen.
Because of the rich world Energy, as long as one was in it, whether it was human or animal, they would benefit endlessly.
As for the source of the world Energy, it was naturally the gemstones that had been conjured underground. It was also these things that had attracted the middle-aged cultivator.
“Kill him!”
The leader thought the long-haired monster was a human in disguise, so he gave the order to fight without hesitation when he saw it.
Gunshots rang out continuously, and bullets flew in all directions, following the tracks of the long-haired monsters.
The humans without guns quickly gathered and looked for a suitable shelter to prevent any more weapons like bamboo guns from shooting over.
The leader and the others still trembled in fear at the power of the bamboo spear. They knew that if they were hit by it, they would definitely die.
How could they know that Tang Zhen, who had launched this attack, was currently squatting on a tree and watching the battle?
Although these long-haired monsters were powerful, they couldn’t do this at all. They took the blame for him for nothing.
The long-haired monsters that were suddenly attacked were also extremely furious. They could smell the blood in the air and sense the death of their companions.
After being attacked, they immediately thought that the middle-aged cultivator and his group were the murderers of their companions.
Having lived in the primitive forest for many years, the long-haired monster was extremely familiar with the terrain here. During the battle, it used the plants and the terrain as cover, nimbly avoiding the bullets from the opposite side.
In a forest battle, the power of firearms and weapons would be greatly limited due to the field of vision and dense vegetation.
Moreover, the weapons carried by the leader and the others were basically semi-automatic pistols. Whether it was the lethality or the firepower sustainability, they were not very satisfactory.
This gave the long-haired monster an opportunity. Like a ghost, it quickly approached the middle-aged cultivator and his group.
Due to the dark sky, the vision of the middle-aged cultivator and his group was greatly limited. They could only use their flashlights and night vision devices to find traces of the long-haired monsters.
The long-haired monsters were different. They had the same instincts as wild beasts, and their night vision was far better than that of normal humans.
In the night environment of the primeval forest, they had a greater advantage. In the blink of an eye, they were already close to the middle-aged cultivator and the others.
In the face of these humans who had invaded the primeval forest and tried to snatch its treasured land, the long-haired monster only had one thought in its mind, and that was to kill them all.
Humans were no strangers to the long-haired monsters. They would occasionally encounter similar treasure hunters in the forest.
Sometimes, they would kill the treasure diggers and drag them back to their caves to dry as food.
Therefore, even if their companions were not killed, they would definitely attack. It was impossible for them to miss such a delicious group of food.
One of the middle-aged cultivator’s subordinates was using a night vision device to search for the long-haired monster. At the same time, he was constantly reporting his location to his companions.
Just as he reported the location, he suddenly heard a soft sound behind him and turned his head subconsciously.
On the screen of the night vision device, a huge figure appeared less than two meters away.
“Ah!”
ah! he cried out in shock and immediately recognized the long-haired monster. Just as he was about to report the location to his companion, he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing in his face.
A sharp pain came from his neck, and it became difficult to breathe. Hot blood soaked the clothes in front of his chest.
“Pa da!”
The night vision device fell to the ground and was crushed by the long-haired monster’s foot. Then, it stepped on the struggling human’s chest.
With the sound of a broken sternum, the man in charge of reporting the location had completely stopped breathing.
Seeing this, the leader beside him immediately raised his gun and fired. The long-haired monster seemed to have been shot, and it disappeared into the forest with a roar.
Although the humans ‘weapons were quite lethal, they were not enough to kill the long-haired monster immediately.
If it was a rifle-like weapon, even if the long-haired monster had tough skin, it would not be able to withstand the attack.
damn it, do you still have night vision? hurry up and report the location!
After losing the night vision goggles, he was as good as blind. The leader was so anxious that he roared loudly.
They were not real soldiers, and it was already very rare for them to carry a set of night vision goggles. How could they have extra stock?
The leader’s angry roar just now was just a fluke. In fact, he knew very well what the answer was.
From now on, their situation would become extremely passive, and the slightest carelessness could lead to their complete annihilation.
He had accidentally seen the process of the long-haired monster attacking his subordinates. He knew that the enemy was not human at all, but a group of humanoid monsters that he had never seen before.
While he was shocked, he immediately ordered his subordinates to gather around him to prevent the long-haired monsters from attacking him one by one.
Just as he was feeling anxious, he heard an angry roar from the side. Then, he saw a golden light flash.
The middle-aged cultivator in the team had taken out a strip-like item and was mumbling something.
The item in his hand began to glow and then, as if it had a life of its own, it jumped around in his hand.
As the leader looked on in shock, the glowing item jumped up from the middle-aged cultivator’s palm and shot towards a long-haired monster at lightning speed.
“Pfft!”
A soft sound was heard. The long-haired monster that had just torn a human into pieces trembled slightly and then fell to the ground.
