C159 Black Under Lamp?
After the wind died down, … four sounds.
The four large military backpacks landed on the ground. The few of them were stunned, but the inertia from their bodies and the space Giant Beast behind them were urging them to run as if their lives depended on it.
Because of the sudden loss of several tens or even hundreds of kilograms of weight, everyone's speed had increased by an unprecedented amount.
They were not much faster than the Starry Sky Beast but they could at least maintain a safe distance.
Liao Xiaoduo was the strongest, and he grasped the distance well.
While escaping, he helped the teammates who were lagging behind to disperse the Giant Beast s that were chasing them.
Liao Xiaoduo had the katana in his hand, but it had never been put to good use.
Niu Dao was a short blade. Humans had a long distance with beasts, Liao Xiaoduo could not fight, and he could not wield his sword to its full potential, so it was a bit cumbersome.
"Pa ~ ~ ~"
Liao Xiaoduo kept the knife in his pocket, and kept the throwing knife in his hand. As he retreated, he harassed the hungry and ferocious Starry Sky Beast.
The transport plane and the metal ore were not far away from each other, so before the Starry Sky Beast could close the distance between them and the rest, the group of four arrived at the transport plane's location.
There were some dirty footprints on the transport plane, and there were also some scars on the flank. It looked like it didn't hurt the foundation, but it showed one thing: this group of Starry Sky Beast should have discovered them as soon as they came down from the clouds.
In order to destroy the transport plane, it was also a little troublesome. In order to not arouse suspicion from the humans, he had set up an ambush at the metal mine.
The four of them hurriedly entered the transport plane, started it, and called Liao Xiaoduo.
However, Liao Xiaoduo had to spend a second or two due to the interruption and the time it took for the four of them to get on the plane.
In an instant, the distance between the Giant Beast and the human closed, leaving only the distance of one arm.
Of course, this arm was the Giant Beast's meter long arm.
The first Giant Beast had already closed in.
The huge palm of the monster that could split open a mountain was about to land on Liao Xiaoduo's body, turning him into a pool of blood.
Liao Xiaoduo immediately used his Star Force and flew into the sky. He actually jumped onto the Giant Beast's hand and jumped into the flying transport plane.
"Roar, roar, roar ~ ~ ~"
The Giant Beast roared angrily, its face looking even more ferocious, a dozen Giant Beast leapt up to the third floor, ready to grab the transport plane and tear it to shreds.
However, the transport plane was controlled by the Intelligence Brain. If he had known earlier, he would have calculated all the routes the Giant Beast would take to soar into the sky.
In the end, it actually managed to obtain a sliver of life for the humans from the crazy jumping of a dozen Giant Beast and the enormous palm of heaven.
The transport plane took advantage of the advanced anti-gravitational force and immediately rose into the air.
Amidst a sea of useless roars, he disappeared into the clouds.
Then Liao Xiaoduo turned off all the sound emitting devices and let the plane use the incomplete anti-gravitational system to float in the clouds.
This action puzzled everyone.
Xiao Xiao asked doubtfully, "Little Duo, are we not going back?"
"The mission hasn't been completed, so why should we go back?"
"We can look for someone else!"
"Haven't you heard a word? Under the lights. This group of Starry Sky Beast was planning to ambush us here, but now that we have discovered them, do you think they will continue to ambush us humans here? "
Liao Xiaoduo's words made Xiang Yuqin recall the wolf pack hunting scene she had seen before.
Once the hunting failed, the wolves would replan.
The higher ranked humans had also failed in their first attempt. There was a high chance that they would not attempt another experiment there.
Xiang Yuqin agreed with Liao Xiaoduo's view and said: "Hmm, that makes sense. If these Starry Sky Beast fail in their plan, they will definitely not hunt in the same place again."
"Besides, we have this airship that flies in and out as we please. What's there to be afraid of?" Everyone had seen the quality of the transport plane.
When the few of them went to mine the ore, the transport plane was unharmed even after being tortured by the Giant Beast for a while.
"Maybe that group of Starry Sky Beast never planned to destroy the transport plane?"
"Or perhaps they have another conspiracy?"
"Xiao-jie, do you think these bugs are as smart as humans after hearing so much about the evolution of the Mars Starry Sky Beast?"
"Gao Yang, tell me, is this Starry Sky Beast really that capable?"
"This …"
Tu Gaoyang frowned and thought for a long time. Finally, he said: "Won't we know if we go and take a look?"
His tone sounded like he was asking for advice, completely unlike how Tu Gaoyang usually did when faced with Liao Xiaoduo's questions.
Above the clouds, there was a heated discussion. Below the clouds, it was bustling with noise and excitement.
Amongst the dozen Starry Sky Beast, two of them were leaning against the metal ore that Liao Xiaoduo and the others had scattered. They let out faint sounds as if they were thinking about something, and the other two were patrolling around, looking like small soldiers.
If someone was here, although they wouldn't be able to understand what this group of animals was doing, they could clearly see that the metal ore not only had traces of being cut by a laser, but also had uneven holes that had been broken by brute force.
The two Giant Beast shook their heads, and after a period of silence, one of them let out a roar, provoking the little soldier over. Then, under the two leader Giant Beast s' orders, the two Giant Beast s left in groups of twos and threes.
A moment later, above the clouds, the crowd agreed with Liao Xiaoduo's words and decided to wait until the right time to mine it.
Half a day later, the transport plane carefully released the surveillance drone. The footage taken by the drone was instantly transmitted to the plane.
Seeing it clearly, a team of more than a dozen Starry Sky Beast was evacuating from the place, the two or three Giant Beast's behind looked back at the ambush place, and still left resentfully.
Sure enough, Liao Xiaoduo's guess was right.
The transport plane stopped at the same spot as before. It was still silent, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.
The few of them took their bags again and sneaked to the place where they had dropped the ores.
Since it was dropped halfway, it was not too far away.
The few of them did not spend much effort before finding that place again.
Even though they were both in a desolate and blood-red land, a few shining ordinary daggers were stabbed into the ground, causing them to appear rather dazzling.
However, there were only a few throwing knives. Liao Xiaoduo kept them one by one and put them back in his pocket.
He searched for the ore but still could not find it.
"Strange, could it be that someone took the ore away first?"
Tu Gaoyang, Xiao Xiao, Xiang Yuqin, and Liao Xiaoduo all had the same thought.
However, Yuh Zuo suddenly said something surprising: "There is also another possibility!"
Other than man-made, who else would take the ore away? Animals didn't have smelting techniques, so taking the ore away would be useless as well.
"It's the Starry Sky Beast that took the ore away!"
"What a big brain. Tell me, how did these insects that can dominate Mars with just their tyrannical bodies manage to smelt these ores?" Tu Gaoyang laughed.
"There's no need for them to use these stones. All they need to do is catch us!"
