The Boy with The Dragon Tattoo

Chapter 296: Gargoyle

Views:

On the purlins on the roof of the Changsheng Palace, there are a dozen gray stone statues squatting away, grimace and stern look below, seeming to be the evil force guarding the palace.

"I went, it turned out to be a bunch of statues! Scared me!"

Lao Wang patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. He touched the black sticky thing on his forehead, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, "Hey, it's stinking!"

"Maybe it's shit!" Zi Yang kindly reminded him.

Lao Wang stepped back in fright, with a "clang" sound, the dog-leg scimitar in his hand touched the edge of the bronze cauldron, making a crisp sound, which echoed continuously in the empty hall.

"Be careful! These things seem to be alive!" Su Rui shouted in a low voice.

Zi Yang and Lao Wang looked up in horror, and saw that a gargoyle on the roof seemed to sway.

"No? Can this thing be alive?" Old Wang slammed the bronze cauldron again with a scimitar.

"Clang~" The melodious voice echoed in the hall, the standing stone statue seemed to be "activated" by the sound of the bronze cauldron, the gray eyes rolled, and two huge wings were slowly opened, like Just like a flying dragon!

"Quack, quack," the stone statue made a short, harsh cry in its throat.

The three of them were horrified and quickly raised their guns to the air. The gargoyle didn't seem to regard the following people as a threat, so he shook his head and looked down at them condescendingly, seeming to appreciate a delicious meal.

Lao Wang looked up at the dense gray shadows. He had no idea for a while, and he stammered and asked, "What, what?"

As soon as the voice fell, the gargoyle spread its huge wings and swooped down quickly. Under the light of the light, you could clearly see the sharp fangs in its mouth.

"Bang, bang, bang" The guns in the hands of the three people rang at the same time. The gargoyle was shot seven or eight shots instantly. The blood spattered in the air spattered and spun and fell down. Beside everyone, a heavy bronze tripod was knocked over and over.

The three of them looked at the falling gargoyle in surprise, and saw that this guy was the size of a strong Chéng Rén. Several holes were pierced by bullets, and blood gurgled out. One wing broke, revealing the dense bones inside.

The seriously injured gargoyle struggled to stand up, crawling towards them with a sharp mouth "quack".

"Bang Bang" Lao Wang shot twice at the head of the gargoyle, and the gargoyle was splattered, and finally lay on the ground without moving.

"Be careful!" Su Rui exclaimed, rushing down a group of gargoyles from above. Everyone was shocked. At this time, let alone pistols, even one person and one machine gun could not stop the collective charge of these gargoyles.

Seeing that the three of them were about to be torn into pieces by the gargoyle's fangs and claws, Zi Yang subconsciously hugged Su Rui.

When it was said that it was too late, the old king yelled, grabbed the Overlord Newt's shield armour, which was aside, and put it on the heads of the three of them.

"Peng, Peng, Peng", the flying gargoyle hit the carapace with a series of muffled noises. The heavy impact smashed Lao Wang to the ground, and Su Rui and Zi Yang were also detained under the carapace. , The three stacked together, unable to move for a while. The gargoyle outside was still banging and falling from above.

Su Rui was pressed tightly under her body by Zi Yang, and their flashlights also rolled onto the ground outside.

Through the gap on the edge of the carapace, you can see the group of gargoyles walking slowly on the wooden board, the sharp claws clacking the wooden board.

The strange thing is that this group of gargoyles seems to have lost their target, turning a blind eye to the three people under the carapace around them, walking aimlessly outside, making "quacking" noises in their voices.

The sound from the gargoyle's throat was very harsh, as if it could penetrate the eardrums and vibrate the heartstrings. Everyone was so frightened that they lay under the carapace and didn't dare to move.

Although Lao Wang’s two legs are exposed, he is now ignoring his head. The gargoyle has passed through his legs several times, and his heart touches his throat. If it were not for the strong mentality, he would have long been Screamed out.

Although these gargoyles are fierce in appearance, they seem to have low IQs. They did not realize that the three of them were hiding under the huge carapace, standing in place and constantly walking in circles.

Su Rui suddenly realized: These gargoyles, like the overlord salamanders outside, survive for a long time in the dark, and their visual systems have degraded.

Overlord salamanders are cold-blooded animals, relying on thermal induction to find their prey.

Judging from the blood spurted by the gargoyle just now, these gargoyles are warm-blooded animals, and they rely on sound vibrations to locate objects.

The "quack" in their throats is not pure noise, but is used for echolocation.

The three of them were covered by the arc-shaped head bones of the king salamander, which invisibly blocked their breathing, so these gargoyles could not sense them.

Although they had escaped for a while, they couldn't keep lying on the ground without moving.

At this time, Zi Yang's face was pressed against Su Rui's neck, and Lao Wang's head was arched under Zi Yang's armpits. The three entangled together like Siamese babies, and it won't last long to maintain this position.

At this moment, Lao Wang couldn't help but sneezed again. Although Zi Yang covered his mouth in time, the gargoyles outside still sensed the sound. They walked anxiously around the carapace and bumped the surrounding bronze cauldrons. It got to jingle.

Several gargoyles touched the carapace bone and slammed the huge carapace to one side. The three people were exposed almost without cover.

"Quack quack"

The gargoyle echoed in the direction of the three.

"Puff~"

Lao Wang responded with a long muffled fart at the right time. The gargoyle group seems to be blown up...

At this very moment, a melodious whistle suddenly sounded outside, and the irritable group of gargoyles was taken aback, then spread their huge wings and hulled out from the gate of the palace. Only three people lying on the ground dumbfounded.

"What are you waiting for? Run quickly!" Old Wang jumped up and flew to the outside of the hall, escaping so thoroughly that he couldn't even take care of the life-saving carapace shield.

As soon as the three of them ran to the door, they suddenly felt a strong wind on their heads. They looked up and couldn't help being shocked. A huge gargoyle above was flying towards them with teeth and claws.

It turned out that there was a gargoyle who didn't know if it was full or not in the mood. When other companions were looking for prey, it had been squatting in the dark without moving! When Lao Wang and others left the wooden platform and ran to the open space, the gargoyle rushed down from the darkness extremely quickly.

At this moment, there is no shelter around them, there is no way to hide, no way to hide.

Speaking of late and fast, Su Rui raised a gun-shaped object in his hand and squeezed the trigger at the gargoyle.

With a sound of "ding", the three of them felt their ear drums shook. The gargoyle that flew over was more like a ghost, and stopped in the air abruptly. The powerful air pressure from the wings made people feel Suffocated breathing. Before everyone reacted, the gargoyle had turned around and flew away from a big hole in the roof. Several thick rafters were broken by it and fell to the ground.

"Fuck, what kind of high-tech is this?" Pharaoh looked at the sonar gun in Su Rui's hand and asked.

"These monsters use echolocation to sense objects, so their tympanic membrane is very sensitive, and the low-frequency pulses from the sonar gun are like bombs to it." Su Rui said. To be honest, she didn't expect this trick to work.

"Hurry up, there is no time to explain!" Zi Yang took Su Rui and ran out.

I don't know what the strange sound is coming from, or how long this "accident" can delay the gargoyles. They must find a hiding place before the group of gargoyles returns. Otherwise, their flesh and blood can't resist the siege of these monsters.

The three of them emerged from the door of the palace knocked by the king's salamander. They heard a "quack" in the darkness above their heads. They didn't need Su Rui to remind them that this was the group of gargoyles taking advantage of the echo. Locate and find prey.

The three of them looked around blankly. In this empty underground cave, it is really not easy to find a place to hide!

"There, there is a hole there!" Old Wang said, pointing to the distance.

The three men ran towards the cave with their legs pulled out. The gargoyle flying in the air also sensed the three prey, swooping down like a group of bombers. When the three were approaching, Su Rui turned around and pressed the sonar gun.

"Ding… "

The gargoyles that rushed down seemed to be hit by air bombs, and flew away in panic.

But this kind of handheld sonar gun has limited power after all. The "blasted" gargoyle hovered in the air for a few times, and then swooped down from several directions.

The sonar gun has only a certain distance and range of action. It is really hard to deal with this kind of all-round attack. After firing a few more times, the battery ran out.

Zi Yang and Lao Wang drew their pistols and fired indiscriminately into the air, covering Su Rui's trio while fighting and retreating, and finally came to the entrance of the cave.

"I'm out of bullets!" After Lao Wang's hit, both magazines were all shot.

Zi Yang fired two bursts into the air, and when he pulled the trigger again, he made an empty sound.

The gargoyles flying in the air seemed to sense that their bullets had run out, and a gargoyle accelerated and dived toward them-at this impact speed, Zi Yang and the others had no time to get into the hole.

At this moment, a huge object suddenly rushed out of the hole behind them, and the gargoyle that fell down was caught in his mouth!

Zi Yang and Lao Wang were unprepared for a while, they were knocked aside by the monster that rushed out and fell to the ground, looking at it with their heads held up in amazement-what a ghost, it turned out to be another Overlord Salamander!

The group of gargoyles in the air "heared" the voice of the Overlord Salamander, hula la all flew away, and seemed to be very afraid of this rough-skinned, thick-mouthed overlord on the ground.

With a grunt, the Overlord Salamander swallowed half of the gargoyle into its stomach. The remaining wing of the gargoyle was still hanging by its mouth, trembling slightly.

"The father of the monster you killed has come out. What can I do?" Old Wang stammered.

This Overlord Newt was bigger than the one that Zi Yang killed, and its front leg was almost as thick as Old Wang's waist.

The Overlord Newt swallowed twice and swallowed the whole gargoyle into his mouth, seemingly not too addicted, standing tall, "staring" at the old king.

"No? It's me again?!" Lao Wang cried out bitterly.

Overlord's newt took a step forward, and Pharaoh turned over with a loud cry, shook off his arms and sprinted at a speed of 100 meters and ran away. The Naha King Salamander swung his limbs to chase after him, and Zi Yang and Su Rui had to sprint behind them.

Pharaoh wanted to repeat his old tricks and continue to circle the boulder. Who knew that the king salamander was just blocking him and the boulder. Pharaoh would probably be swallowed by it before he abducted it.

Reluctantly, Pharaoh had no choice but to continue rushing forward, panicking and looking at the pool in front of him. Pharaoh suddenly had a plan: What if this monster doesn't know how to water

Suffocating his breath and rushing to the sandy slope where they just started to go ashore, Lao Wang flew high with a loud shout, and plunged into the mud with a graceful watering posture in the air-he calculated the wrong distance. There is still nearly 1 meter by the water.

Pharaoh stunned and pulled his head out of the sand, opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of mud and half a tooth. As soon as he turned his head, he saw the overlord newt rushing towards him with the momentum of Mount Tai.

"My life is over!" The old Wang raised his arms in vain to block him, and closed his eyes in despair.
