Chapter 273 - Tactical Improvement
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
For a moment, the Bombardier Beetle howled under everyone’s attack. When Chu Ze heard the Bombardier Beetle’s cry, he was stunned for a moment because he never knew it was able to make a sound. Creatures became very strange after their evolution.
After a while, the Bombardier Beetle seemed to be unable to take it anymore, and its stomach started to bulge.
The group of rookies laughed when they saw this. They thought that they had mastered the attack method to defeat the Bombardier Beetle.
“Everyone, be careful! This Bombardier Beetle is probably going to fart again. Everyone, stay away from its butt!”
However, they did not see the Bombardier Beetle fart. Instead, they saw the Bombardier Beetle become even bigger.
Chu Ze, who was far away, laughed when he saw this scene.
“I’ll let you guys suffer a little. It’s your fault for not checking the information.”
Chu Ying was stunned for a moment and said, “Why would they suffer? Isn’t the Bombardier Beetle only use farts to attack?”
Chu Ze shook his head and said, “Yes, it only has one skill, but after the Bombardier Beetle evolved, it can release venom other than from its butt. Just wait and see.”
Then, Chu Ying saw the Bombardier Beetle seemed to be about to explode.
The rookies who saw this scene also continued to retreat. The rookie who was originally on the back of the Bombardier Beetle also flew into the distance because the Bombardier Beetle really looked like it was about to explode. If it really exploded, he might just die together with the Bombardier Beetle.
Chu Ze brought the few of them further away. Chu Ying felt that it was a little strange.
“There’s no need to be so nervous. The Bombardier Beetle’s attack shouldn’t be able to reach us.”
Chu Ze shook his head. “It’s better to be careful. We can’t take the risk.”
Then, Chu Ying saw the Bombardier Beetle begin to attack.
The Bombardier Beetle raised one of its front legs and aimed at the rookies in front of it. The next moment, a puff of smoke shot out from its leg.
From afar, it looked like it was holding a high-pressure water gun in its hand.
The huge pressure directly sprayed the smoke into the crowd. Moreover, the Bombardier Beetle still chased after the rookies with its big belly.
Not only did the rookies have to endure the stench, but they also had to bear the burns caused by the high-temperature liquid.
Fortunately, the high-temperature liquid would quickly vaporize when it came into contact with the air. The amount of liquid that fell on the rookies was not much.
Chu Ze originally wanted these newbies to kill the Bombardier Beetle without any injuries, but now it seemed that they couldn’t be unharmed.
This was mainly because some people wanted to conserve their strength and they didn’t put in any effort during the previous wave of attacks.
Otherwise, the previous wave of attacks could have directly taken care of the Bombardier Beetle.
As Chu Ying saw the smoke shot out from its leg, she cried out in surprise, “Ahhh, I really want to raise such an evolutionary creature. In the future, whoever dares to provoke me, I’ll let it fart and kill people.”
Chu Ze was speechless. “Then I’ll just give you Rhubarb. Whoever provokes you, you just let Rhubarb beat them with its tail.”
Chu Ying shook her head. “I don’t want Rhubarb. Rhubarb is just a flatterer. I don’t like a dog that waves its tail at anyone.”
“Are you looking down on dogs? You have to know that a flatterer could provide many things in the end. They bring benefits as well.”
Chu Ying still shook her head. “I don’t care. I just don’t like those dogs.”
Li Manman said worriedly, “Are you guys really not worried about these rookies? If this continues, these rookies will really get hurt and might delay our mission.”
“Don’t worry. The skill of this Bombardier Beetle can’t last for long. In a while, this Bombardier Beetle will be at the mercy of others.”
“But according to the information, there has never been such a high-level Bombardier Beetle. Maybe this Bombardier Beetle has some special skill.”
Chu Ying looked at the Bombardier Beetle’s shrinking belly and said, “Don’t worry. The Bombardier Beetle’s belly is going to be empty. It’s almost time to counterattack.”
The rookies had also noticed the situation. They were now ready to counterattack.
If this had happened before, they would have run away. But now that they knew Chu Ze’s attitude, they did not dare to act like they were going to run away.
They knew that Chu Ze would not care about them. If they dared to run away, they might really be punished by military law.
This time all the rookies were ready to attack the Bombardier Beetle.
They were only waiting for the Bombardier Beetle’s energy to be used up.
However, the Bombardier Beetle was not easy to deal with. Even if the energy was used up, the Bombardier Beetle was still very fast.
Chu Ze smiled and said to Chu Ying, “If these people are not careful, the Bombardier Beetle will run away. At that time, I will have a reason to chase them back.”
Chu Ying pouted and said, “You are just finding an excuse. You simply don’t want to bring them along. Don’t underestimate these people. I think the Bombardier Beetle will not be able to run away.”
The reason Chu Ying dared to say that was she saw some people running to the back of the Bombardier Beetle.
At this time, they were no longer afraid of its back. There was a high probability that the Bombardier Beetle would not be able to fart anymore.
The people who ran to the back were there to stop the Bombardier Beetle from escaping.
During the battle just now, some people had gone to review the information and learned about the Bombardier Beetle’s combat habits.
That was why these people went to the back to block the Bombardier Beetle’s escaping path. Moreover, they had successfully replicated Chu Ze’s previous tactics.
Creating a quagmire was a tactic that was very useful to terrestrial creatures.
It could restrict the movements of terrestrial creatures.
Moreover, they had improved this tactic. When the rookies created the quagmire, they did not affect the surface of the land at all, and they did not have any problems standing on it.
Only the gigantic evolutionary creature would crush the surface layer when it stepped on the surface of the quagmire.
Chu Ze smacked his lips and said, “These people’s tactics are pretty good. I can see that these people have a lot of potentials.”
After hearing Chu Ze’s words, Chu Ying laughed and said, “This tactic was originally developed from your tactic. Moreover, it wasn’t improved by the rookies. Many people improved it after researching it and then taught it to these rookies.”
“You haven’t stayed in the academy before. There’s a group of people there who specialize in researching tactics. They saw the quagmire tactic you used before was very useful, and then someone started researching it.”
Chu Ze smiled and said, “This is very normal. Who asked me to come up with such a good tactic?”
Chu Ying looked at Chu Ze with disdain and didn’t say anything else.
Then, they saw that the Bombardier Beetle was ready to run away after its energy was used up.
Just as the Bombardier Beetle turned around, it saw a few people with bad intentions.
These people attacked the Bombardier Beetle’s face.. The Bombardier Beetle roared in anger after being hit by this attack and wanted to chase after those people.
