Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

Chapter 280: 247, Those who gather firewood for others should not be allowed to freeze to death in the wind and snow_2



Qian Rui must fire, or the yeti will most likely kill the truck driver inside.

For a Great Xia Soldier, watching a monster kill a civilian is a disgrace.

With a few "bang bangs," several fist-sized holes burst on the yeti's surface.

But this didn't inflict much damage to the yeti.

By relying on its instinctive talent, it began absorbing the surrounding snow, and the pits closed up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, the road had just been cleaned, so there wasn't much snow, thus the yeti's recovery speed was not fast.

At the same time.

The yeti noticed Qian Rui's presence.

Its body wriggled a few times, and unexpectedly extended a few legs, directly turning around and accelerating toward him.

Just now, this thing was just a snow lump, with no discernible shape.

Now, it can be recognized that the yeti seems to have taken the shape of a dog, with a running speed of at least ten meters per second.

Before the Superpower Era arrived, this was the speed of the world sprinting champion.

Qian Rui's pupils constricted, he couldn't help but burst out a curse: "Shit!"

In his mind, a series of thoughts flashed instantly.

"Run?

"Probably not! The snow dog's speed is too fast, I won't be able to escape for a few seconds before being caught up, ending up dead.

"Fight?

"First delay the snow dog's speed with bullets, then throw two grenades after it gets closer, perhaps I can incapacitate it!"

This is the only way to survive.

He very much understands the risk involved, if the grenade is thrown slightly off, it would be hard for him to survive.

But he also knows this is the duty of Great Xia soldiers.

Where there is danger, Great Xia soldiers must step up!

"Da! Da!"

Qian Rui, while retreating, kept shooting.

Although he faced a perilous situation of life and death, he became surprisingly calm, with only the charging yeti in his eyes.

With the snow dog's speed being so fast, accurately hitting it is very challenging.

But Qian Rui's marksmanship suddenly became incredibly accurate, hitting the monster with every shot.

Each time the gunfire echoed, the snow dog would shake slightly, a large chunk of snow would splash from its surface, and its speed would noticeably slow a bit.

Qian Rui tightly grasped the firearm, a smile appeared on his face: "It seems my marksmanship has broken through!"

A few seconds later.

The snow dog finally darted to a distance of more than ten meters.

Qian Rui cursed angrily, "Die already, you bastard," then swung his right hand to throw a high-explosive grenade out.

At that moment.

He instinctively realized: "It's over!"

Qian Rui immediately lunged to the ground, burying his head in the snow to avoid being hit by grenade fragments.

"Boom!"

Just a loud explosion was heard.

The grenade detonated.

Qian Rui felt his head swirling; he also sensed a shock wave rushing from above.

He immediately lifted his head to take a look, his lips instantly cracked a smile.

Where the yeti previously stood, no snow dog was visible anymore, just a pile of snow remained.

Done!

Qian Rui swiftly climbed up from the ground, ready to rescue the driver inside the overturned truck.

He took just two steps, when the corner of his eye spotted the snow pile wriggling.

The next moment.

He heard a light noise.

"Woo!"

Qian Rui only felt his shoulder hit heavily, his whole body flew back a meter, falling to the ground with his head raised.

At the same time, an unimaginable agony came from his shoulder.

"Ah!"

Qian Rui screamed miserably and passed out directly.

One of his arms flew off, leaving a large patch on the snow, instantly staining it brilliantly red.

Behind.

A few new recruits holding flamethrowers and shields watched, their eyes reddening.

"Squad leader!"

"Quick, save the squad leader!"

According to military training methods, using a fire extinguisher requires two people coordinating, one holding the flamethrower to spray fire, the other standing in front with the shield.

This is to block the snow projectiles spit out by the yeti.

The shields issued by the army are made of ultra-high strength steel, impervious to snow projectiles.

Great Xia's preparation for the Age of Calamity is far more thorough than outsiders speculate.

At this moment.

A robust new recruit shouted "Damn your mother," then threw aside the soldier holding the shield and charged with the flamethrower.

"Whoosh!"

The whistling sound of airflow arose.

A scorching flame spouted from the gun muzzle, sweeping forward like a fire dragon, spanning more than ten meters to crash into the wriggling snow pile.

A bizarre event occurred.

"Ow~"

A dog bark echoed from the snow pile.

But the dog bark quickly subsided.

Because the snow pile melted.

In the sky.

A Spirit Crow swooped by, capturing the sight on the ground entirely.

It witnessed the squad leader's bravery firsthand, regretting not arriving in time.

A minute passed.

Qian Rui groaned, awakening from unconsciousness.

He immediately saw a few soldiers surrounding with red eyes, an intern medical soldier just graduated was nervously bandaging him.

A new recruit whispered: "Squad leader, your arm..."

Said halfway, couldn't continue.

Qian Rui hissed painfully, speaking with indifferent tone: "I know the arm is gone, it's no big deal!"

He immediately asked: "Is the driver rescued?"

Another new recruit nodded continuously: "Already rescued, the driver only suffered a cut on the forehead, nothing serious."

Qian Rui breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good!"

Having saved the driver, he felt that the loss of his arm wasn't in vain, not regretting much.

This was meant to be the military merit badge of Great Xia Soldiers.

The previously "backtalking" new recruit whispered: "Squad leader, you're right, our work is truly meaningful."
