Chapter 38: Desert Fire Scorpion

The brilliance dissipated, and the scorching wind rushed towards the face with the fine gravel, covering Li Zheng's head and face.

"Bah hooah!"

Unprepared, Li Zheng ate a mouthful of broken sand and spat.

"Hey! Tuituitui!"

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

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

"Huh."

Sakura slipped into the small lined pocket, honestly not daring to move.

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

After two days of exploration, Li Zheng is no longer Wu Xia Amon, and he knows that weapons must be in hand at all times.

Even if it is only a momentary time to take out the items from the capsule residence.

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

There was golden sand everywhere, and the hot wind from nowhere swept through it, bringing up the sand and dust in the sky.

Looking up, through the gray dust, you can vaguely see the blue sky, and a scorching sun hangs high.

"Is this the real sky? Or was it simulated by some kind of technology?" Li Zheng was surprised.

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

The desert room is vast and wide. At first glance, the sand is removed, but 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, squinted his eyes, and glanced around: "The Eye of Preles indicates 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 the I'm a fatal blow, can't be careless."

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

With his ears pricked up, he listened intently. Li Zheng didn't even dare to let go of the slightest movement, and glanced around from time to time.

"It feels soft and firm under the feet, which means that the sand in this room is very thick."

Staring at his feet, Li Zheng was wearing the pair of casual shoes he had entered the matrix, and he used his feet to plan twice, but no metal ground was exposed, "That bronze-level creature should be small and able to drill under the sand, with a high probability. There will be sneak attacks on the way.”

Li Zheng pondered, and suddenly his heart moved.

"I wonder if the Eye of Preles can see through the danger in the sand?"

Try it, and then you'll know.

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

Sure enough, the Eye of Preles displayed a message:

[Go in this direction, fifteen minutes later, you will see the door to the next room. 】

"There is a play!"

Li Zheng was overjoyed, although he didn't give any specific information about the next room, but for him, at least in this direction, he can move forward with confidence.

Looking to the left:

[Go in this direction, you will see the door to the next room in 18 minutes. 】

Right:

[Congratulations, after choosing the wrong answer twice, you finally found the right path. Go in this direction and you'll be attacked in five minutes. 】

"???"

Li Zheng was fascinated. Since he detected the golden treasure chest, the Eye of Prells seemed to be broken. Sometimes the prompt information given would have a tone of... sand sculpture netizens.

"A piece of technological equipment, is it possible that it can still generate consciousness?"

This thought flashed through Li Zheng's mind, and he immediately felt amused, "Isn't that the setting of the story in a science fiction movie? Will it be invaded by a virus in the future, become the ultimate villain, and **** the heroine from me?"

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

I really have watched a lot of Bollywood movies, so I have this idea.

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

Lifting his foot and walking to the right, after a while, the Eye of Prellus gave another hint:

[There is a "lazy" creature hidden under the earthbag in front of you, you can choose to take a detour, or shoot now. 】

"A dirt bag?"

Li Zheng looked in the direction, and at the end of his line of sight, he could barely see a bulge in the area of ​​a grinding disc on the gentle sand.

The bulge is not large. If it wasn't for the warning from the Eye of Prells, Li Zheng might not have found it.

"Lazy with quotation marks?"

Li Zheng tasted it carefully and felt that the so-called laziness was not laziness at all, but something else.

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

Raise the gun, aim, shoot!

The coherent action brought about the sound of gunshots.

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

"Hey!!"

This shot seemed to anger the creature. After a tragic hiss, the sand surface suddenly rose, and a creature the size of a grinding disc emerged from it.

"Picture book!"

The scan function is turned on to lock the target.

beep.

[Desert Fire Scorpion

Bronze

A creature with a thick carapace covering its entire body, with a solitary habit, and walking on the ground when it moves in the desert terrain.

When not hunting, they like to hide in the sand.

Abilities: Fusha, Poison

Weaknesses: Mouthparts, weak ice]

Li Zheng glanced at the interface and saw all the information about the Desert Fire Scorpion in his heart. "No wonder the Eye of Preles reminds me that the threat level is low, and it is another weakness that I restrained."

"Hi~ka!"

The Desert Fire Scorpion had already spotted Li Zheng, raised his head and roared, swinging his limbs, marching in a staggered manner, and sprinting over the sand, the speed was comparable to a battery car!

Under the gray-yellow carapace, there were two worm eyes that flickered with a cold luster, and they locked onto Li Zheng who dared to provoke him.

In its eyes, such a weak body is not covered by carapace, as long as it is caught by itself and the giant claw is cut, the other party will become two pieces.

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

"The speed is quite fast, but it's a pity to meet me..."

Li Zheng calmly watched the Desert Fire Scorpion sprinting over, and slowly switched the Desert Eagle to the special shooting mode, meditating in his heart.

"Ice and Fire Attachment, Ice Element!"

Shhhhhh!

The desert eagle opened fire, and the snake grass needles were wrapped in icy blue air and the temperature was extremely low.

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

"Um?"

Li Zheng raised his brows slightly, "This kind of shooting feel... I seem to be able to do it more accurately!"

The hand holding the gun is rock solid, making very subtle adjustments every time the shot is fired.

One shot after another, the snake grass needles were fired one by one.

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 shattered the ice with needles.

"Hey~~!"

The desert fire scorpion roared in pain, followed by several ice bullets hitting it, and the intense pain sensation was transmitted to the brain and received by the nerves.

It was only then that it discovered that after the seemingly fragile bullet shattered, it easily smashed its hard carapace into a sieve.

A large amount of khaki-yellow mucus overflowed from the wound, and the desert fire scorpion, driven by its instincts, was instantly terrified, its arthropods turned and changed directions, and UU Kanshu actually wanted to escape.

Its brain that is not smart enough can't figure out how this seemingly weak creature can hurt itself.

Even, if you don't run away quickly, the opponent is completely capable of killing you!

Run away!

Anyway, there is more than one place in one's own territory, just run away!

Desperate for everything, the Desert Fire Scorpion turned a corner at a faster speed, trying to escape.

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

"Want to go?"

Li Zheng sneered, turned his gun, aimed at the joint of the desert fire scorpion, and continued to shoot.

Shhhhhh.

Clap clap clap!

Even if the desert fire scorpion has speeded up, it still can't escape the fate of being hit by a gun and a broken limb.

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

Li Zheng watched the desert fire scorpion with all its limbs broken and struggling to the ground, calmly filled the magazine with snake grass needles.

"Although the recoil of the Desert Eagle's special shooting mode is small, there are still subtle effects."

Li Zheng resets the magazine without getting close, and directly lifts the gun to shoot, just like hitting an immovable shooting target at the shooting range and firing a gun.

"But since I drank the black iron-level gene potion just now, this effect is not worth mentioning to me."

"This is the real thing, a hundred hits!"

Shhhhhh!

After another 20 rounds of snake grass needles, the desert fire scorpion finally stopped struggling.

"Well, with the two magazines, I have almost mastered the current reaction speed."

Li Zheng nodded in satisfaction, and confirmed that the desert fire scorpion was completely dead through the Eye of Preles, and he approached.
