Chapter 501: Anti-aircraft guns kill mosquitoes
According to what was marked on the map, there were a large number of wild animals on the hillside ahead, including sword frogs, giant mosquitoes, piranhas, rhinos, wild boars, and even the legendary Komodo dragon. There were also countless wild animals in the dense jungle.
"My gene medicine manufacturing machine can now extract recessive genes from ordinary animals. So, can I also capture these animals to make medicine? Even if I fail, I can provide Lilith with more experimental materials, which will facilitate her to conduct more in-depth research and eventually create qualified strengthening medicine."
Zhang Tuohai has always been obsessed with genetic enhancement drugs.
Although he followed Lilith's advice and did not use these things, it did not mean that he gave up.
Since the genetic enhancement potions produced in the game are unreliable, it should be okay to let Lilith research them herself, right?
He believed that with Lilith's talent, she would be able to develop a gene-enhancing drug without side effects.
"That's it, we'll just go through the jungle."
Zhang Tuohai decided on the direction of advance, and the infantry fighting vehicle turned around and rushed into the jungle.
This area is closer to the top of the mountain and is more humid and hot, and the jungle on the side of the road is more like a tropical rainforest.
There are tall trees everywhere that block the sunlight. The jungle is damp and hot, with vines and mosses everywhere, and dense mushrooms at the roots of the trees.
Zhang Tuohai originally wanted to pick some to try.
As a result, just as he was about to leave, Wangcai stopped him, hugged his thigh and said, "Boss, have you forgotten that last time you picked mushrooms in the secret realm, you picked a basket full of them, but there was not a single edible one?"
Hearing Wangcai's words, Zhang Tuohai's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
This is the dark history of his life, but Wangcai, a guy with no tact, still insists on bringing it up.
"Shut up! Don't say anything without my permission. Do you hear me?"
"Then promise me you won't go picking mushrooms." Wangcai held Zhang Tuohai's legs tightly and refused to let go.
"Okay, I get it. Is it okay if I don't go?"
Zhang Tuohai nodded helplessly in response.
Wangcai then let go of his legs, but still sat at the door to prevent Zhang Tuohai from sneaking out.
When Zhang Tuohai saw Wangcai's look, he snorted in annoyance, sat in the command chair, and looked at both sides of the road, looking for suitable animals.
However, there is no need to consider Zhang Tuohai, a spider.
Because of the problem with the Oaken statue, all spiders whose strength was lower than Oaken's ran away on their own initiative.
There are almost no traces of spiders within a kilometer around Zhang Tuohai.
The ground in the rainforest is very muddy, and there are even many puddles. Even an off-road vehicle like the Predator would have great difficulty moving in here. However, Zhang Tuohai has wide tracks and the car has been professionally waterproofed, so it can even move under or above the river. This water depth is nothing to him.
Therefore, apart from the vast number of trees slowing down Zhang Tuohai's travel speed, there was no additional impact.
The car was moving forward, when suddenly, Zhang Tuohai heard a series of loud buzzing sounds.
"What?"
Zhang Tuohai looked around for the source of the sound.
However, he searched for a long time but found no trace of the enemy.
On the contrary, the buzzing sound became louder and louder.
"Commander, in the sky."
Xiao Ai suddenly said.
Zhang Tuohai looked up into the sky and was immediately shocked.
At some point, a large group of mosquitoes gathered in the sky.
These mosquitoes were everywhere, like dark clouds, almost covering the entire sky.
At first glance, I'm almost having trypophobia.
It would be fine if it were just a large number, but the key is that these mosquitoes are extremely huge.
Each mosquito is at least the size of a basketball. The largest one in the center has a wingspan of up to one meter. Its huge mouthparts are as thick as a milk tea straw, and its body is covered with red and black stripes, making it look ferocious and terrifying.
After discovering Zhang Tuohai, a strange prey, the mosquitoes began to hover in the sky and flew down from time to time, trying to attack the infantry fighting vehicles.
Although these mosquitoes could not cause any harm to Zhang Tuohai, the dense swarms of them made him feel nauseous and uncomfortable.
At the same time , the huge buzzing sound caused Zhang Tuohai to have some auditory hallucinations and even lost his sense of balance.
"This mosquito is weird. The buzzing sound has the effect of a sonic attack." Zhang Tuohai frowned and made a judgment.
"Xiao Ai, use the flamethrower immediately and burn these annoying guys to death!"
Zhang Tuohai said sternly.
"clear."
Xiao Ai popped out 20 robotic arms, each holding a flamethrower.
Whoosh—whoosh—
The more than ten-meter-long fire dragon devoured the surroundings and swept back and forth towards the mosquitoes.
The outer flame temperature of the flamethrower reached thousands of degrees. The moisture of a mere mosquito was evaporated and burned into ashes before it could get close.
Soon, the mosquitoes near Zhang Tuohai were burned away, leaving a large space.
The fine ashes left by the mosquitoes fluttered down in the strong wind and soon formed a layer on the ground.
However, there were so many mosquitoes around. After burning one to death, two more came up, but there were still so many mosquitoes in the sky, as if they would never be all burned.
Moreover, after being burned once, the mosquitoes learned their lesson and immediately hid outside the attack range of the flamethrower and stayed there.
Zhang Tuohai wanted to get away from this group of mosquitoes.
However, it was as if these mosquitoes were targeting him. No matter where he went, they would follow him, and the buzzing sound would always echo in his ears.
It made Zhang Tuohai feel anxious and irritated.
[Kill the mosquito leader, and the mosquito swarm will naturally disperse. The mosquito leader's position is at the 12 o'clock direction, 65 degrees above, and 200 meters away.]
The prompt system popped up a prompt.
Zhang Tuohai raised his head and looked in the direction indicated by the prompt system. Sure enough, among the dense swarm of mosquitoes, there was a huge mosquito hovering in the air.
"Xiao Ai, rush over and kill it."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"Yes, sir."
Xiao Ai drove the infantry fighting vehicle and rushed towards the mosquito leader.
But the mosquito leader was very cunning. When he saw Zhang Tuohai approaching, he immediately retreated and never gave Zhang Tuohai a chance to get close.
When Zhang Tuohai changed direction, it flew back, always keeping a distance of more than 200 meters from Zhang Tuohai.
"You're playing hide-and-seek with me, right? Xiao Ai, shoot me with your machine gun."
Following Zhang Tuohai's order, twenty mechanical arms replaced the flamethrowers in their hands with quadruple 23mm machine guns.
Da da da.
A dense metal storm swept towards the mosquito leader.
