Chapter 435: Delicious Pig-headed Man

Soon, Qu Baoguo came to his own conclusion.

With the current firepower at his disposal, he could not inflict effective damage on the Pig-head man.

Seeing the Pig-head man running towards him, Qu Baoguo made a decision.

He ordered the rocket launcher crew to load the rockets; they would retreat while using artillery fire for cover.

Qu Baoguo frowned, his gaze fixed on the surging tide of Pig-head man charging towards them.

The Pig-head man looked ferocious, letting out roars, brandishing their crude yet murderous weapons, pressing closer step by step.

Qu Baoguo quickly glanced at the supply trailer, which had already entered the Mountain Cave; it was a crucial achievement of their battle and absolutely could not be lost.

“Quicken your pace!”

“We need to move fast too!”

He shouted loudly, his voice firm and powerful even amidst the gunfire.

Upon hearing this, the Survivors around him quickened their steps, rushing towards the Mountain Cave.

At the same time, their artillery fire continued to roar.

Shells accurately landed among the charging Pig-head man, instantly kicking up countless dust and debris.

Flames soared into the sky, illuminating the gloomy battlefield as if it were daytime.

The Pig-head man screamed in agony as they were blown up, and their formation briefly fell into disarray.

But soon, they reassembled under the crude shouts of their leader and continued their frantic charge.

Qu Baoguo knew that this covering artillery fire would not last long, and they had to retreat into the Mountain Cave as quickly as possible.

He urged his soldiers forward while he and his comrades continuously returned fire, their firearms spitting flames, accurately shooting at the Pig-head man.

Amidst the symphony of artillery fire and gunshots, the Survivors finally approached the Mountain Cave step by step.

However, the Pig-head man’s charge was faster, and they seemed to be catching up to Qu Baoguo and his group.

It was at this moment that bad news arrived.

They had run out of shells, and it would be difficult to effectively stop the Pig-head man’s advance with just their guns.

At this critical moment, that man stepped forward.

Inside the Mountain Cave, the team left to guard the base, led by Fifth Master, came outside. Just by chance, they saw the Pig-head man relentlessly pursuing Qu Baoguo and his group from behind.

Without any hesitation, Fifth Master decided not to conserve shells and immediately launched a fierce offensive against the Pig-head man behind Qu Baoguo and his group.

Powerful firepower, like a fierce torrent, instantly covered the group of Pig-head man.

Dense artillery fire, with the momentum to destroy everything, roared in, and continuous explosions shook the ground.

The Pig-head man, under the artillery attack, were like ants swept by a strong wind, all being overturned.

Their originally large and clumsy bodies now appeared incredibly fragile.

With each explosion, some Pig-head man were thrown high into the air and fell heavily; others were directly blown into pieces, with severed limbs flying everywhere.

The moment they were blown over, their tender bellies, originally hidden beneath their thick hides, were exposed.

These bellies, under the ravages of artillery fire, were instantly covered in blood and wounds.

Some were cut open by shrapnel, spilling out nauseating internal organs; others were scorched black by high temperatures, emitting a pungent odor.

Although the Pig-head man let out painful roars after suffering such heavy blows, the merciless artillery fire did not stop.

They struggled and rolled in the sea of fire, but were powerless to escape this catastrophic disaster.

Soon, many Pig-head man bodies lay scattered across the battlefield.

Qu Baoguo quickly passed by Fifth Master and his group, running inside.

Fifth Master and his group also prepared to retreat, but before retreating, they took out some grappling hook guns.

The targets of these grappling hook guns were the bodies of the dead Pig-head man.

After hooking the bodies of the Pig-head man, they quickly dragged them back. At the same time, Fifth Master also had someone bring over the bombs made by Lao Wei.

They quickly installed the bombs on the inevitable path, then, carrying several Pig-head man bodies, quickly retreated into the Mountain Cave with the help of the grappling hooks.

At this time, the remaining Pig-head man were still charging frantically forward, completely unaware of the impending danger.

With a series of loud bangs, the placed bombs exploded, and the powerful impact and flying shrapnel once again caused huge damage to the Pig-head man team.

The Pig-head man at the front were thrown by the blast wave, their bodies covered in wounds, howling in pain.

Taking advantage of the Pig-head man’s renewed confusion, Fifth Master and his group successfully retreated into the Mountain Cave.

Everyone quickly activated the mechanism, lowering the huge stone to block the entrance, leaving only some ventilation holes.

After everyone returned to the Doomsday Fortress, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, especially Qu Baoguo and his group, who had been hovering on the brink of death all day.

If they hadn’t received Fifth Master’s assistance later, they would have had to pay a heavy price to return.

Facing the returning heroes, Fifth Master arranged for them to rest, and at the same time, had the Survivors remaining at the base organize the brought-back supplies.

He himself went to the bodies of these Pig-head man.

Qu Baoguo, enduring his extreme fatigue, stumbled to keep up behind Fifth Master.

Fifth Master directed his subordinates, and it took several people a great deal of effort to slowly cut open the Pig-head man’s hide.

Looking at the Pig-head man’s body, Fifth Master’s expression was calm, as if the scene before him was nothing out of the ordinary.

Holding a sharp blade, he precisely cut a piece of meat from beneath the opened hide.

The meat was a strange red, and its texture seemed no different from pork.

Subsequently, Fifth Master carried this piece of meat towards a simple stove.

He placed the meat on the cutting board and skillfully processed it, slicing it into thin pieces.

Then he lit the fire, set up the griddle, and brushed a layer of oil on it.

Once the oil was hot, the meat slices went into the pan, instantly making a sizzling sound, accompanied by a rising plume of smoke.

Soon, the Maillard reaction between the meat slices and the griddle began. After Fifth Master simply brushed on some soy sauce, he picked up a piece and put it into his mouth.

Originally, he didn’t have much expectation, only wanting to confirm if the meat was edible. However, the Pig-head man’s meat turned out to be exceptionally delicious.

The surface of the Pig-head man’s meat formed an enticing crispy crust. A close sniff revealed a rich, overflowing meaty aroma that instantly stimulated the appetite.

When gently poked into the meat with chopsticks, one could feel its perfect tenderness, maintaining a certain elasticity without being tough.

Taking a bite, first came the crispy texture of the outer layer, a ‘crunch,’ followed by the tender, juicy meat inside. The fat burst in the mouth, and the rich meaty flavor instantly filled the entire oral cavity. The taste was rich and wonderful, making one unable to resist taking bite after bite, the taste buds immersed in this ultimate culinary pleasure, as if time itself stood still for this delicious mouthful.

After a few bites, Fifth Master asked Qu Baoguo to also try the taste of this meat.
