Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1416 Kill
Bullets whizzed towards the poisonous insects like raindrops.

One of the poisonous insects seemed to sense the danger and tried to avoid the bullet attack by using a flexible flight trajectory.

It quickly rushed left and right in the air, sometimes circling upwards and sometimes swooping down. Its agile posture made it much more difficult for the mercenaries to shoot it.

However, this poisonous insect still underestimated the strength of the mercenaries.

A mercenary stared closely at the flight path of the poisonous insect, his eyes focused and calm, his finger firmly on the trigger.

At the moment when the poisonous insect paused briefly, he decisively fired again.

The bullet hit the poisonous insect's head accurately, and the poisonous insect let out a shrill scream, the sound seemed to be able to penetrate a person's soul.

Immediately afterwards, its body lost balance and fell straight down from the sky like a kite with a broken string, hitting the ground heavily, raising a cloud of dust.

When the other two poisonous insects saw their companion being shot down, they suddenly became even crazier.

Their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty red light, and the frequency of their wings vibrating increased a lot, making a sharper and more piercing buzzing sound.

They rushed towards the mercenaries angrily, with a momentum that seemed to tear the mercenaries into pieces.

However, the mercenaries under Koko's command are not pushovers either.

They had already experienced countless life and death tests, and faced with these crazy poisonous insects, they were not at all panicked.

In the initial confrontation, although they were caught off guard by the sudden and crazy attacks of the poisonous insects, they quickly adapted to the most powerful rhythm and speed of the hell poisonous insects.

They began to adjust their tactics and cooperate with each other to form a tight defensive circle.

A mercenary was responsible for attracting the attention of the poisonous insects. He deliberately revealed some flaws to lure the poisonous insects to pounce on him.

When the poisonous insect approached, he quickly dodged to the side and avoided its attack.

At the same time, another mercenary seized the opportunity and launched an attack from the side.

The weapon in his hand fired a series of bullets, accurately hitting the poisonous insect's body.

The poisonous insect roared in pain, but it did not retreat. Instead, it fought back even more frantically.

Finally, with the close cooperation and unremitting efforts of the mercenaries, the other two poisonous insects were successfully killed.

Their huge bodies fell heavily to the ground, splashing up clouds of dust.

The mercenaries breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the corpses of the poisonous insects on the ground, but they knew that the battle was not yet over.

Several other mercenaries quickly rushed forward and took out small "fire extinguishers" from their backpacks.

These "fire extinguishers" are special equipment they prepare specifically for such situations.

They skillfully opened the valve of the "fire extinguisher" and sprayed it at the most ferocious corpse of the hellish poisonous insect.

Only the sound of "puff puff puff" was heard continuously, and white smoke gushed out of the "fire extinguisher", quickly covering the body of the poisonous insect.

These white smokes are not ordinary smokes, they have special functions.

On the one hand, they can effectively curb the spread of the venom of hellworms.

The venom of the hellworm is extremely dangerous. Once it spreads, it can easily kill hundreds of people nearby. This white smoke is like an invisible barrier, firmly sealing the venom around the body of the venomworm, preventing the venom from spreading further, thus protecting the surrounding environment and the safety of people.

On the other hand, these white smoke also have the effect of cooling and preserving food.

Since the death of the hellworms, their value has been counting down.

These poisonous insects contain effective ingredients that can produce demonic power serum, but these ingredients are very unstable and can easily become ineffective due to the influence of the external environment.

If it lasts more than 12 hours, these poisonous insects will be completely worthless because it is no longer possible to extract the effective ingredients to make the magic power serum.

The cooling effect of the white smoke can slow down the decay of the poisonous insect corpses, helping to preserve them and buying valuable time for subsequent research and utilization.

“Is this a supernatural creature?”

Koko boldly stepped forward to check after her men had dealt with the matter.

She was wearing a neat combat uniform, and her eyes revealed curiosity and excitement.

She has always been interested in supernatural creatures, and she was very excited to be able to see them with her own eyes and participate in the battle.

According to the division between America and the island nations, these poisonous insects from hell are just very weak monsters.

Although they look scary and have a certain degree of aggressiveness, they have a fatal weakness - they are afraid of bullets and fire.

When faced with humanity's advanced thermal weapons, their seemingly hard shells are vulnerable to the impact of bullets, and raging flames can turn them into ashes in an instant.

Compared with those powerful monsters that can ignore bullets and artillery fire, rampaging on the battlefield and wreaking havoc, the hell poisonous insects are simply not worth mentioning.

Therefore, in order to better manage and deal with these supernatural creatures, America and the island countries defined and classified them.

The lowest level is defined as "beast level".

Supernatural creatures of this level are roughly as dangerous as common ferocious wild beasts such as bears, wolves, tigers, and leopards.

Although they possess certain supernatural abilities, overall, the threat they pose to human society is relatively limited. These creatures often mutate under certain circumstances, gaining sizes, strength, and speeds that surpass those of ordinary beasts.

For example, in some forests that are irradiated by mysterious energy, wild boar mutants as big as hills may appear.

Their fangs are extremely sharp and can easily pierce tree trunks; their skin is rough and hard, and ordinary swords and knives can only leave a shallow mark when cutting it.

However, humans can easily subdue them by using suitable firearms, such as large-caliber rifles or machine guns, and shooting from a certain distance.

Although these "beast-level" creatures may bring some troubles to humans, as long as humans take preventive measures, they will not have much impact on social stability.

The next level above the "Beast Class" is the "Gun Class".

Supernatural creatures of this level are as dangerous as guns and cannons. They have a certain degree of bulletproof ability, and light firepower weapons often have difficulty in exerting effective killing power in front of them.

These creatures usually have harder shells or special defensive capabilities. These defense mechanisms may be the result of their own evolution or may be enhanced by some mysterious power.

When humans fight against "gun-level" creatures, they often need to use heavy weapons such as heavy machine guns and rocket launchers to effectively strike them.
