Trickster Hunter

Chapter 145 Yamata no Orochi

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

A wave tens of meters high suddenly appeared on the calm sea surface without warning. It arrived at the shore in the blink of an eye, dragging more than a dozen hunters who were caught off guard directly into the sea. In an instant, the white foam was dyed. A touch of blood.

"Can these waves crush people to pieces?" Sun Hang's eyes twitched, "No, there is something hidden in the waves!"

"Monitoring the memetic response of strange objects!" The hunter carrying the device shouted, "Comparing with the database... Found it! I found the frequency that can match it! Yes... it's C20 Five Yamata no Orochi!”

There was a hint of vibrato in his tone, and Sun Hang could completely feel the undisguised fear.

"Isn't the activity area of ​​Yamata no Orochi in the Fuso Sea area? How could it appear here?" The fisherman asked blankly, "Didn't the observation post set up on the Tsushima Strait detect its movements?"

"There's no time to worry about that kind of thing now. Everyone retreat quickly! Don't fight it where there is water!" The hunter carrying the monitoring equipment ran quickly. "That guy has the ability to control water flow, and he can also Spread poison in the water and you will die if you touch it!”

Before he finished speaking, two spiral water columns shot out of the water, piercing the two hunters closest to the beach.

The seven or eight hunters standing next to these two people were contaminated by the splashing water droplets - they had no obvious reaction at first, and after a few seconds, they fell limply to the ground, their limbs crazy. Twitching, dark blood overflowed from the nose and ear canals.

"Run!" the fisherman shouted to Sun Hang. "Although the Yamata-no-Orochi can go on land, as long as it is out of the water, its danger will be greatly reduced!"

The remaining hunters all ran away from the beach, and the spiral water columns were like ballistae shot from the sea, naming the slow-running hunters one by one - except for a few with defensive weapons. Except for the hunter who had the ability to escape, all the other named hunters were "nailed" to death on the beach by water jets.

Finally, when the surviving hunters ran into the woods, the monster lurking under the sea finally stopped shooting water jets. In addition to the residual limbs and blood foam floating on the sea, and the corpses scattered on the beach, , everything returned to calm.

"Huh...huh...we...are we out of its range?" A hunter gasped.

"I don't know... Anyway... I survived anyway..." The hunter holding the monitoring equipment sat down on the ground - he seemed to be the kind of hunter who was more interested in academic research than combat. Although he was the first hunter of all to react and run toward the woods, he was one of the last to run into the woods.

He had a few brushes with death. The most recent one was when a rotating water column pierced a hunter less than three meters away from him. Fortunately, he threw out his cloak in time to block the splash of poisonous water. , otherwise he would have become one of those corpses on the beach.

Of course, his slow running speed probably has something to do with his unwillingness to let go of the heavy equipment in his hands in the face of death.

"That Yamata no Orochi, has it left?" Sun Hang stood behind a tree and looked at the sea in the distance.

"I don't know." The hunter carrying the monitoring equipment shook his head, "The distance is too far and is beyond the detection range of the equipment."

"Most of our supplies are scattered on the beach... Do you want to go back and get them?" asked the female hunter who was on the same landing craft as Sun Hang and the fisherman.

"Wait a minute, I don't want to go back now." Another hunter immediately shook his head like a rattle, "In my opinion, let's observe it for at least two days... Maybe, that guy is dormant on the sea surface now. Come on, wait for us to turn back."

"Can't you call in the destroyers and kill it with saturation fire?"

"If only one destroyer could kill the Yamata-no Orochi, this guy wouldn't be alive today." The fisherman sighed, "In the original operation to encircle and suppress the Yamata-no Orochi, the Federation dispatched a full fleet. , and successfully lured it to dry land. More than two hundred hunters participated in the operation, and there was continuous aerial fire suppression... But even so, this guy escaped in the end. "

"Yano, didn't you also participate in the operation to suppress it? Does it have any weaknesses?" Another hunter asked the hunter with the monitoring equipment.

"It is almost invincible in the water. It can use turbulent undercurrents to create a surrounding 'defensive field'. Any torpedo that enters this defensive field will be destroyed. Conventional weapons cannot cause effective damage at all." A hunter named "Yano" leaned the device that looked like a large suitcase against the trunk of the tree and took out the telescope from his backpack. "The Federation later tried Nuclear strikes have been tried, but a small-yield nuclear strike will not only fail to kill it, but will also cause it to mutate further, while a large-yield nuclear strike will seriously pollute the offshore waters, and even Jingu City and Chunming City will be affected. Later, the Yamata no Orochi had been quietly dormant in the depths of the Fuso Sea and had no intention of moving to the Xiazhou Federation, so the federal leaders shelved the subsequent crusade plan. "

"It's just polluting the seawater." Another hunter said, "If it were me, I would rather pollute the ocean than let such a monster live in the world... Besides, Yano, didn't your ancestors do this? The discharge of nuclear waste water into the ocean caused many deformed monsters to appear in coastal areas."

"You..." Yano's face suddenly turned red, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

He wanted to refute something, but the other party was telling the truth, which made him unable to find a point to refute.

"This at least shows that the top leaders of the Xiazhou Federation still have some conscience." The fisherman tried to smooth things over, "Unlike the group of idiots in Fuso back then, they were short-sighted, selfish and shameless... There were also many voices of opposition in Fuso at that time, but it's a pity that the top leaders simply didn't listen."

"But then again, now that the Yamata no Orochi has appeared here, this means that those shelved plans for the crusade have to be put on the agenda again, right? This place is so close to Chunming City, the top leaders of the Federation will not sit idly by and watch such a huge threat appear in the coastal area, right?"

"I have already sent the report of the discovery of the Yamata no Orochi back to the warship via a drone, and I guess Chunming City has received the news now." Yano sighed, "I just don't know if the trial will continue."
