There is no way I can let Fatty block the gun for me. It was entirely because of me that he fell into this incident. Although his curiosity and greed were at work, if it hadn't been for the shadow cast by my last trip to Lop Nur, he would never have done it. Trapped in. In fact, given my character, let alone Fatty, even if Jack was in the current Fatty situation, I would not hesitate to let him go first. Without a choice, I would not choose to escape first. Fatty It’s a headache to be stubborn, and he couldn’t convince me, so we were in a stalemate. They ran side by side, but angrily ignored each other. A bit like two angry children. Jack and Tang Yumo were very effective in blocking Heimanluo. During the stalemate between me and Fatty, Heimanluo actually did not catch up. This gave Fatty and I a rare moment of peace. I carry more weight than Fatty, so the advantage of endurance is not very prominent. When I feel more and more tired and unable to do my best, the two Flashlight in front of me gradually move away from me. sight. When the two Flashlight disappeared from sight, I glanced at Fatty and said, "I don't think any of us can catch up with those two people. Maybe we are destined to be two brothers with the same destiny." " Your mandarin duck is in front, you are showing the wrong affection." Fatty is still complaining about my stubbornness, and his tone is very bad. "I know I don't have that much interest in Tang Family Girl. Don't always judge a gentleman by his own opinions. And you haven't seen Tang Family Girl's attitude. I can run faster than a rabbit, so you treat me like me." Am I that mean to put my hot face on someone else’s cold butt?” “I’m not a Tang Family Girl, you know.” Fatty gave me a discreet smile. "Your sister. You are still talking nonsense to me at this juncture. No wonder American Guy doesn't deal with you, and I would have fallen out with you if no one else had done it. You don't deserve to be licked." See Fatty again Tease me about this. I refuted him politely. Maybe this is the last time we quarrel. "If you can beat me, I won't talk nonsense. I don't care about others. Really, I'm a little bit unwilling to not have a fight with American Guy, but it's a pity that I don't have a chance. He's so cheap." "Then you chase him, maybe If you can catch up, don't die with regrets." "It's probably the biggest regret to leave you alone. As brothers, we have this life, but there is no next life." "I regret it? Ask casually. "fart."
Bang.
Of course, it wasn't the sound of flatulence. The noise came from far behind us, but it was loud. If it were a fart, it could only belong to a gigantic Humanoid Monster.
I turned back nervously and said, "It's catching up. It must have shaken off the fire."
In truth, I saw nothing. We had moved far away from the Fire Sea. There was no light behind us, just darkness. I was merely judging based on the sound coming from behind. Besides the Heimanluo, I couldn't think of anything else that could make such a commotion.
Fatty listened carefully for a moment. "Its footsteps are still quite far away. That noise earlier couldn't have been it actually farting, right?"
"Come on, can we be serious? Is it planning to kill us with a fart?"
Fatty chuckled at my words. "To prevent it from using such a crude tactic, let's give it two Grenades when it catches up and blow its rear end wide open. If this thing has transformed into a human shape, do you think it would evolve human organs and a digestive system?"
I thought for a moment. "The last time I came down here, I saw a huge pile of dung somewhere. Now that I think about it, it was probably left by this creature. It has to eat, which means it must excrete; there's no need for its internal system to change just because of its transformation. If its internal system changed to resemble that of a human due to transformation, that wouldn't be evolution for it; it'd be degeneration. Its current state is better suited for this environment."
"Fighting this thing is really frustrating; it has no weaknesses and can't be killed. You take the first shot in the next wave of attacks. Try to injure it as much as possible, at least make it stop moving. I'll see if I can find its weak spot. I refuse to believe this thing can't be killed."
"Don't even start. You want to exhaust my ammunition and drive me away, right? If we're leaving, we leave together; if we're staying, we stay together. Stop overthinking and focus on how to deal with Heimanluo."
Fatty smiled awkwardly. "I just don't want to hand things over to American Guy and Tang Family Girl so easily. The thought of us fighting hard for two strangers makes me uneasy."
"Then think about Xiao Ting. If Tang Yumo can't escape, then Xiao Ting and the others won't be able to return to the Ground either. Plus, I believe Jack will help Xiao Ting look for Xiao Guolin; at least he'll make an effort in that regard."
"Then it's still benefiting American Guy."
I...
I couldn't quite understand Fatty's way of thinking at that moment.
"So, how far along are you with Xiao Ting?"
Fatty chuckled again. "Alright, I'm fighting for Xiao Ting, not just serving American Guy."
Fatty turned back and glanced behind us. "It's really coming now."
I knew something was chasing us; the enormous footsteps made it impossible to pretend I didn't hear them. Moreover, with each step, the Ground trembled rhythmically beneath us; those footsteps sounded like drumsticks striking a drumhead—each step sent shivers through me as if I were standing on that very drumhead itself.
As I ran, I pulled my backpack to my chest, stuffing the One-Eyed Beast Flashlight into my mouth while rummaging through the bag for a Grenade and a White Phosphorus Incendiary Grenade. When I turned back, I noticed Fatty had stopped, his finger resting on the pull ring of the White Phosphorus Incendiary Grenade, looking up towards the rear. I stood still in surprise and walked over to him.
Fatty also had the One-Eyed Beast Flashlight clenched between his teeth. In the glow of our flashlights, a massive Humanoid Monster was rapidly approaching us.
When I finally got a clear look at the creature, Fatty and I exchanged a glance and smiled.
Initially, when we were ambushing the Humanoid Monster, Fatty and I had run quickly, relying on our ears to know that Jack and Tang Yumo were engaging the transformed Heimanluo Humanoid Monster. We hadn’t really seen it up close until now, and only then did we realize that Jack and Tang Yumo had indeed done their best, leaving a deep impression on this thing.
The Humanoid Monster's body was still enormous, but it was riddled with wounds.
The most shocking sight was its head, which was so high that we had to look up at it. A Grenade or several had blown off most of its upper head. One eye and a large portion of its nose were missing, with shrapnel embedded in the wound. The head, lacking a top, was emitting smoke. It seemed there were unburned White Phosphorus Residue inside, possibly even remnants from a White Phosphorus Incendiary Grenade that had been thrown in.
Its remaining eye stared at us blankly and without pain, as if it felt no awareness of its severe injuries. However, I didn’t believe that; despite its large strides and quick pace, its steps were unsteady and its body wobbled.
