Chapter 166:
If it were a normal vehicle, it would probably be impossible to detect a creature following 500 meters behind in this weather.
But was Liang Yu’s RV a normal vehicle?
The answer was clearly no.
Liang Yu looked at the location of the Etch Insect swarm’s nest marked on the map, then glanced at the location of the creature following behind the RV.
He revealed a sunny smile once more.
If it likes to follow, then let it follow.
Anyway, he also wanted to know what kind of creature was behind him.
How would it compare to the Etch Insect swarm?
Now, Liang Yu had made up his mind to let them harm each other.
As for not being able to provoke their conflict?
Don’t joke, Liang Yu was just driving the RV near the Etch Insect swarm’s nest.
As long as the creature behind continued to follow at a distance, it would inevitably enter the Etch Insect swarm’s range.
Inside the RV, Liang Yu, of course, wouldn’t worry about being attacked by the Etch Insect swarm.
As for the creature behind him, that was another story.
The RV quickly arrived near the Zerg nest and stopped.
After stopping the RV, Liang Yu activated Sentry Mode and took out his handheld game console, playing by himself.
Lan Ling still needed time to think things through on her end.
Then there was the paid content for the evening; when Liang Yu thought of Lan Ling’s promise, his blood immediately surged.
After all, he was still a young man in his early twenties.
This kind of thing was actually very normal.
Not long after the RV stopped, the creature that had been following behind indeed began to lurk in the surroundings.
Liang Yu thought to himself that the Etch Insects would have a hard time once they returned to their nest.
During this waiting period, Liang Yu would occasionally check the other party’s location.
He was indeed a little worried that the other party might not be able to tolerate the current weather and would leave.
However, it seemed Liang Yu was overthinking it.
At this moment, the creature that had followed was still waiting at its original position.
It was just like an experienced old hunter.
This wait lasted for an entire day.
Liang Yu had not left the driver’s seat except to go to the restroom.
Lunch and dinner were both brought to him by Lan Ling.
This also led Yi Yi to feel that Liang Yu seemed to have quite a few opinions about her.
Originally, after finishing lunch, Yi Yi wanted to come to the driver’s seat to mend her relationship with Liang Yu.
However, her actions were stopped by Lan Ling.
And Mario was arranged to clean up the guest room Liang Yu had mentioned.
They were preparing to arrange for Yi Yi to stay in the guest room.
Not long after Liang Yu finished dinner, the familiar sound of buzzing wings came from outside the vehicle.
Upon hearing the sound, Liang Yu immediately turned off the lights in the driver’s cabin.
Then he immediately began to control the Fire Dragon King, which had been placed outside the RV in advance.
He immediately controlled this Fire Dragon King to fly towards the creature’s location.
As the sound of buzzing wings grew louder, it also meant the Etch Insect swarm was approaching.
Liang Yu didn’t hesitate, aiming at the creature’s lurking spot and unleashing a blast of fiery breath.
After the flames had only been spewing for less than three seconds, Liang Yu discovered movement beneath the snow.
The next moment, a massive snake head with a gaping maw appeared in front of the Fire Dragon King.
Fortunately, Liang Yu reacted quickly, raising his flight altitude to dodge the bite.
Then he clearly saw the opponent’s full appearance.
With the help of his glasses, he analyzed the creature’s species.
It was actually a young Titan Python.
It was nearly ten meters long, weighed around 600 kilograms, and its body was almost a meter thick.
The most crucial point was that the opponent was still a young python.
However, compared to the appearance of the young Titan Python, Liang Yu was more concerned about another matter.
Under the current temperature, don’t snakes usually hibernate?
Why could this Titan Python still come out to hunt?
As Liang Yu pondered, the bright light from the Fire Dragon King’s fiery breath and the Titan Python’s massive body had already attracted the Etch Insect swarm’s attention.
They were supposed to be returning to their nest, but after being attracted, they all turned their direction and flew towards the Titan Python.
The Titan Python did not show any fear towards the Fire Dragon King and the Etch Insect swarm.
It opened its gaping maw and fangs, issuing a warning to these enemies.
However, for the Etch Insect swarm, the Titan Python and the Fire Dragon King were the invaders.
They naturally could not let them go unchecked.
Liang Yu controlled the Fire Dragon King to fly to the side and watch the show.
As a result, one or two short-sighted Etch Insects came looking for trouble.
They immediately turned into roasted Etch Insects, but Liang Yu dared not compliment the taste, nor did he want to try it.
And the massive Titan Python was the primary target of the Etch Insect swarm.
Liang Yu also took the opportunity to observe through the Fire Dragon King if the Titan Python had anything special about it.
As long as he confirmed that the opponent was still a carbon-based lifeform, then it was within the range of the truth he held in his hand to eliminate it.
If this Titan Python was somewhat special, even unafraid of the truth in his hand.
Then Liang Yu was prepared to make a run for it.
On the front battlefield, as the Etch Insect swarm launched its first wave of probing attacks.
These attacking Etch Insects were struck down in groups of several by the opponent’s snake tail.
Under the powerful force of its tail, these Etch Insects were like tomatoes being slapped.
One slap, one burst of juice.
Not a single Etch Insect under the snake’s tail remained intact.
Some Etch Insects bypassed the snake’s tail and came to its body, but what awaited them was a single gulp.
The Titan Python did not dislike the Etch Insects; it swallowed any that came close.
It didn’t have to worry about them causing trouble inside its body.
Liang Yu, watching from the sidelines, even thought that those scattered Etch Insects that approached the snake’s body were intentionally let through by the opponent.
This first round of attacks quickly ended.
In Liang Yu’s opinion, it was clearly a complete victory for the Titan Python.
He was already starting to worry about what the Titan Python would do after dealing with the Etch Insect swarm.
The opponent had not yet attacked the RV; he estimated it was due to the RV’s large size and the sound of its engine.
Plus, that cannonball earlier today made the opponent temporarily apprehensive.
It would be hard to say after a long time.
Furthermore, there is only a thousand days to be a thief, but no thousand days to guard against a thief.
If he didn’t take out his heavy-duty synthetic brigade from his backpack.
Liang Yu estimated that with his current firepower, he wouldn’t be able to kill the opponent; instead, the Titan Python would escape.
For no other reason than its astonishing speed, unless there was high-density firepower coverage, it would be truly difficult to hit.
It was at this moment that the second round of engagement between the Etch Insect swarm and the Titan Python began.
The sharp-eyed Liang Yu noticed that the Etch Insects launching this attack were significantly darker in color than the previous ones.
They no longer launched suicidal charges.
Instead, they flapped their wings and flew high, maintaining an elevated position.
They began to spray a bluish-purple liquid at the Titan Python below.
The Titan Python below initially didn’t care about these sprayed liquids.
At first, it just used its tail to create strong winds and fan the liquid away.
However, as the Etch Insect swarm continuously sprayed liquid, the Titan Python’s body and tail inevitably got sticky.
