The woman speaking was half-squatting in the sand, wearing a desert camouflage jacket, with a tactical belt tightly around her waist, and a dagger and a modified pistol clipped to her waist.
Chapter 187 Mei
The woman had short, neat dark brown hair, a few faint scratches on her wheat-colored cheeks, and a pair of cold, sharp gray-blue eyes that were fixed on the eel-like creature swimming on the lake.
She is Mei, the leader of this squad.
Having found the perfect opportunity, May said to her partner Richter, "Richter, take two men with you to get the eggs."
The rest of you should stay outside and keep watch to prevent any unforeseen events.
"Yes!"
After giving instructions, the four men, armed with guns, stealthily approached while their teammates carefully reported their movements.
After the eel-like creature glided across the river, the two men quickly emerged from behind the rocks where they were hiding and raised their guns to stand guard.
May and Richter quickly lay down on the sand and started digging. Soon, four glowing monster eggs appeared in front of them.
Mei quickly and carefully picked it up and put it in her backpack.
Meanwhile, Taylor and his two companions were following the trail of the car team.
Watching the white-haired boy chase after the butterfly, Taylor called out helplessly, "Boy, don't go too far."
"He's just exploring~" Hailey was equally helpless in the face of her brother's constant nagging.
The little boy was rescued from a jar in the laboratory. He couldn't speak and had never been in contact with human society, so he was naturally full of curiosity about the outside world.
But seeing her older brother calling her "young man," she still had a lot of objections.
“Haley, I don’t want to call him George or Barnaby, or Chad—those names you’ve had for your little brother since you were four,” Taylor said, rolling her eyes.
"The young man suits him well."
海莉:(???)
With a muffled roar, the two quickly climbed the high slope and soon saw the caravan below them.
“Have you ever seen that kind of monster?” Hailey asked.
“No.” Taylor said decisively, “There’s no record of that guy in the academy either.”
“Haley, look, those people are carrying Pan-Thailand Alliance trucks and weapons.” Taylor was somewhat pleased, finally finding her organization.
"What are they digging for?" Hailey's attention was drawn to Mei and the others who were digging for eggs.
"Looks like a monster egg?"
"Well, it's a bit disgusting. I hope they didn't dig them up to eat."
“Perhaps we should follow them,” Taylor said cautiously.
He did not want their actions to be the behavior of the Pan-Pacific Alliance.
"We need to figure this out... Oh no!"
Before he could finish speaking, he was astonished to see the white-haired boy running downhill as fast as he had been.
Taylor didn't care about anything else at that moment and quickly got up to chase after him.
However, after the two had run a certain distance, the eel beast sensed that an intruder had entered its territory.
As the eel-like creature rose to the surface, Mei cursed under her breath, "Damn it! It smelled me!"
As she spoke, she raised the sniper rifle she was carrying and turned to aim at the area behind her.
No, no!
Don't shoot! I mean no harm!
"We're on the same side." Taylor held the boy in one arm and raised the other hand.
Mei looked at the two young men and ultimately did not fire her gun. At this moment, the eel beast that had been disturbed and climbed ashore could not afford to be distracted.
"Damn it!"
"shot!"
The dense hail of bullets hit the monster's thick scales like a tickle, causing no damage whatsoever.
With a single head-shaking bite, the opponent instantly tore the two soldiers in front of it to pieces, swallowing them whole.
The splattered blood splashed all over May and Richter's faces. The two were stunned for a moment, then quickly ran away.
Having dodged a monster's attack, Mei shouted, "Quick, get the rocket launcher!"
Taking advantage of the chaos, Richter stumbled back to the truck, quickly pulled out a specially made rocket launcher, knelt down on one knee, aimed at the eel beast's enormous head, and pulled the trigger.
"boom!!"
With a deafening roar, intense flames and billowing smoke instantly enveloped the monster's head, sending rubble and sand flying in all directions.
But once the smoke and dust had cleared up a bit, the eel beast was only jolted by the impact.
Its massive body swayed slightly, and it shook its head covered in bone spurs. Far from being injured, it was completely enraged.
It raised its head and let out a ferocious roar that shook the wilderness, then charged towards the group with all four legs pushing off the ground.
In an instant, his teammates who had been lying in ambush got up to provide cover, and gunfire erupted as they sprayed bullets wildly.
The bullets clattered against the eel's thick, dark brown scales, producing only sparks and failing to penetrate its defenses, serving no purpose whatsoever.
The eel beast continued to approach, its massive body ignoring the hail of bullets, its mouth snapping at May and Richter, who were trying to steal the eggs.
At this critical moment, May threw down her rifle, snatched the rocket launcher Richter had just loaded, slid to the side to steady herself, locked onto the eel beast's fully open maw, and decisively pulled the trigger, shooting straight into the eel beast's throat.
The next second, a violent explosion erupted inside the monster, and dazzling flames shot out from its mouth, nose, and the gaps in its scales.
Its massive body convulsed violently, its bony spine trembled, its enormous head slammed heavily to the ground, its limbs kicked weakly a few times, and then its massive body collapsed completely on the sandy shore in front of the lake, never to move again.
After the incident was over, the two survivors angrily turned to look at Taylor and his two companions who had run back to the hillside.
Richter pulled out his pistol, aimed at the three men, and continued to approach.
"Let's go!" Hailey clung tightly to the boy, knowing she had caused trouble and wanting to escape.
However, Taylor went back down the slope to explain, "You stay here."
"Listen to me, I'm sorry, I just..."
“You killed two of my brothers!” Richter shouted angrily, his face covered in blood.
"We didn't do it on purpose."
"We are just..."
"Stop making excuses for me!"
"Richard!"
"Don't interfere, May!" Richter was already blinded by rage.
"If you make a move, believe me, you will definitely not have a good outcome." Mei calmly stepped forward, but stared at him while uttering warning words.
In the end, Richter gritted his teeth, lowered his hand, and walked aside, leaving it to May to handle.
At the same time, he added, "They are your friends too!"
“I’m really sorry, we didn’t mean to bother you, but he…” Taylor pointed to the white-haired boy behind him, trying to explain.
"Tell me, where is your car?" Mei was too lazy to listen.
Two siblings, both under 20, with a child, should have been traveling with the convoy. It would be better for the adults to handle this kind of situation.
"Actually, we..." Taylor was considering whether or not to tell the truth.
Hailey walked over and interrupted, saying, "We walked here."
"What……"
"Really? From where?"
"Over there," Taylor pointed in a direction.
"I've been there."
"It is in the mountains, Meridien."
Mei looked at the three of them suspiciously, especially the white-haired boy who was only wearing underwear, which made her feel that the combination of the three was very strange.
Putting aside his behavior, couldn't you at least put a coat on him?
Chapter 188 Trading
Despite her many doubts, May ultimately chose to bring the three back to Camp Bogan.
Along the way, there was only desert dust in the vast expanse. 17-year-old Taylor and 14-year-old Hayley listened to the bits and pieces of information that May revealed in the back seat of the truck.
Now I finally understand why their Australian continent was abandoned and called a restricted area.
Based on the canyon formed by the two angles, rows of military vehicles and tents are scattered under the cover of camouflage netting.
Looking at his surroundings, Taylor asked doubtfully, "Can this military camouflage protect against monsters?"
“No…” Mei sighed and shook her head, “but it still has some use, and it’s not just for guarding against people.”
"Sometimes we also pack up and leave without notice."
As soon as the car stopped, the eldest brother, Shane, who was waiting there, asked his goddaughter, who had jumped out of the car, "Where's the monster egg?"
“We found two,” Mei said truthfully.
Where is the monster?
"Taken down."
Shane looked at the three young men in the truck. "Just because of them?"
"They did not do it intentionally, and they did not have any weapons on them, so they pose no threat."
Knowing her father's temper, Mei could only try her best to explain.
Seeing that Xie En did not show any expression, she said to the three people in the car, "Get out of the car, it's okay."
