Chapter 1499 - 1500: Berserk
In fact, even without Yang Fei's reminder, Mad Blade knew that this time they had encountered a tough opponent.
Mad Blade was a veteran of jungle warfare, extremely experienced in jungle combat.
No matter how cunning the enemy, he could always find traces of them, then pursue and perfectly snipe them.
But this time, Mad Blade's previous experience seemed suddenly useless.
When the enemy entered the jungle, they were like a drop of clear water blending into the vast ocean, leaving no trace.
In jungle warfare, this is the most fearsome situation.
Knowing there's a formidable enemy lying in ambush, but unable to find their traces.
Once the enemy launches a sudden attack, there's almost no chance to escape.
With no choice, Mad Blade had to take the risk of climbing to the treetop for a bird's-eye view, observing the complex surroundings.
The gang of ruffian Warrior Kings, led by Evil Dragon, were all guarding Mad Blade.
Though Mad Blade had a wide view from above, it was extremely dangerous. If targeted by the enemy sniper, a single shot could blow his head off.
Yang Fei's Snake Stupefaction was at its peak, sensing a looming crisis, while silently searching everything around.
In the midst of silence, after a brief pause, unknown insects resumed their chirping.
This sound was inaudible to ordinary people, but to Yang Fei, it was as loud and piercing as a phone ringtone.
Yet, the more it was like this, the more alarmed Yang Fei became.
The movements of insects and, in particular, the flight patterns of birds in the jungle are extremely important factors in determining enemy whereabouts.
However, after the initial disturbance, within a dozen seconds, the surrounding natural environment returned to normal.
Even the cold killing intent disappeared.
Such normality was the greatest abnormality.
This proved that the enemy's stealth technique had reached the highest Realm, perfectly blending with nature, achieving Unity of Heaven and Man.
Yang Fei understood that this was the terror of the Genetic Warriors.
The powerful genes within their bodies were originally from nature; when lurking in the jungle, they were naturally seamless.
The needle forest of Siberia was frigid, forming lots of Rime, shimmering beautifully.
Yet today, as the temperature warmed, these Rime showed a slight sign of melting, water droplets falling down.
Just then, Yang Fei suddenly noticed within five hundred meters of him, a Rime hanging on a branch was dripping water drop by drop.
The line of those falling droplets wasn't straight but slightly arced.
This phenomenon was quite common.
Water droplets are so light that even a slight air disturbance can alter their falling trajectory.
However, Yang Fei was fixated on that second droplet, gently falling, then the third droplet...
Yang Fei discovered a secret.
Every droplet formed a slight outward arc as it fell, then returned to a straight line, landing on the ground.
One droplet was normal, the second was a coincidence, but the third, fourth...
Every droplet was like this; it was more than just a coincidence.
"Someone!"
Yang Fei's lips tightened, eyes fixed on the back of that branch of Rime.
Behind that branch of Rime was a huge bush.
Beside the Rime was a thick winter melon tree, its leaves all shed, leaving bare black branches.
Logically, such a place couldn't hide anyone.
But Yang Fei knew very well that the airflow changing the raindrop's path came from a person's breath.
Otherwise, the droplets couldn't form regular arcs.
In other words, behind the Rime, a strong enemy was lurking.
And that person's breath created a slight airflow, altering the raindrop's trajectory.
Yang Fei stared at the trunk, but couldn't find the lurker. At this moment, Shen Feng approached from afar.
Yang Fei was suddenly shocked to see snow fall from the black trunk, revealing an eye.
"Watch out!"
Yang Fei was startled, and his rifle fired without hesitation.
In an instant, the seemingly black trunk moved.
A black tentacle, like a javelin, thrust straight at Shen Feng's throat.
This attack was so sudden that Shen Feng couldn't dodge.
In desperation, he quickly protected his throat with his hand and retreated backward.
Swoosh!
The black tentacle, with a sharp Bone Spur at the end, pierced through Shen Feng's palm and again went for his throat.
Shen Feng had no way to dodge, yelled, and desperately twisted his neck to avoid a fatal throat wound.
Hiss!
Shen Feng felt a sharp pain on the left side of his neck, and a chunk of flesh was torn away by the Gene Warrior's tentacle.
Although he dodged in time, preventing a pierced throat.
Shen Feng endured the pain, rolled on the ground, and evaded.
The tentacle swiftly followed his body, piercing down, penetrating his leg.
The bloody barbed Bone Spur tightly hooked onto his body.
Shen Feng grunted, pulled out a military knife with his other hand, and slashed at the Bone Spur with all his might.
Thunk!
With a dull sound, the Bone Spur tentacle was incredibly tough.
Shen Feng's full-force strike left only a blood mark on the tentacle and couldn't sever it.
The Bone Spur tentacle lifted Shen Feng's body into the air.
Shen Feng was shocked, grabbed a wooden stake with one hand to remain straight,
As an instant passed, Yang Fei's bullet hit, striking the trunk and causing a burst of blood.
A pained voice came from within the tree hole.
The thick black trunk shattered, and a creature rolled out from the tree hole.
Everyone was startled.
The creature tumbling out of the tree hole was already completely deformed, with eight Bone Spur tentacles flailing wildly like javelins.
Its head was human, but below was all tentacles, resembling a giant Octopus Monster.
Shen Feng felt his body being pulled by immense strength, his arm about to break, joints crackling.
This thing couldn't help but yell, "Help, damn, I won't let the Octopus Monster eat me alive."
Swish!
At this moment, a Sword came from the west, its light like snow, cutting through the Bone Spur tentacle.
A bloody half Bone Spur tentacle fell to the ground.
Three Swords!
Three Swords stood with his sword, when a bullet whistled from afar.
He rolled to the ground, dodging to the left.
But two consecutive bullets were already waiting in advance on the trajectory of Three Swords' movement.
"Watch out, there's a Sniper."
Yang Fei shouted, his rifle shooting a bullet, precisely deflecting one of the bullets.
But the other bullet still hit Three Swords' shoulder, sending him flying.
Mad Blade, hiding above, fired his Heavy Sniper, suppressing the enemy sniper from above.
But before his bullets ran out, the enemy fired two shots consecutively.
Mad Blade yelled as he fell from the treetop.
