Cave Refuge-Chapter 293 - 282: Migration_4

Since the Thompson family of three had come over with the first convoy of vehicles, they were granted the privilege of choosing their residence first.

Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, unsurprisingly, chose to live in the same warehouse as the Taylor family and the Luo family.

The steel-structured warehouse was quite spacious; even with a dozen people from three families living there, there was still plenty of room left inside.

Moreover, the main door of the factory was large enough to allow vehicles to drive inside, parking the car within the factory space directly resolved the accommodation issue.

When Zachary, following the first group of specialized combat team members, had settled down here, it’s uncertain whether it was the sudden surge of human activity that attracted a Giant Scorpion; before they could tidy up the warehouse, the guard on watch blew the alarm whistle.

Zachary told his parents to hide in the Black Car and not come out, while he himself stepped outside the gift factory to see what the alarm whistle was about.

As Zachary moved to the perimeter of one side of the factory, following the commands of the lookout at a higher vantage point, he saw the source of danger.

It was the Giant Scorpions Madeline had mentioned, with five of them showing up at once; honestly, it was Zachary’s first time seeing such large bugs.

Since Madeline had already briefed them, the specialized combat team members didn’t rush to shoot, but instead took some thick steel rods they found somewhere and each held one, surrounding the Giant Scorpions.

Perhaps due to the difference in numbers, the encircled Giant Scorpions kept waving their pincers and raising their tails with sharp spikes, swinging them continuously towards the others as if to intimidate.

In the face of this attack, Zachary didn’t need to take action. To test the combat capability of these Giant Scorpions, Robinson William led the specialized combat team members to first lure them apart by distance.

Then Robinson William personally took action, approaching a target at high speed, and forcefully thrust the steel rod into the gap between the segments of the scorpion’s carapace.

When the Giant Scorpion felt the attack on its back, it did not die immediately but swung its tail with the Toxin-laden spike towards Robinson William.

Robinson William, as if he had been prepared, grabbed the Scorpion’s tail as it lashed out, wearing a puncture-resistant glove on his hand, so he wasn’t worried about whether there was Toxin on the surface of the Scorpion’s tail.

After grabbing the tail of the Giant Scorpion with one hand, Robinson William quickly pulled out a dagger strapped to his leg, thrusting it deeply into the joint of the carapace, and then proceeded to circle around the texture, severing the tail.

After the tail was cut off by Robinson William’s dagger, it immediately began to spray a green liquid. Since none of the people present had researched biology, they did not know whether the fluid being sprayed by the Giant Scorpion’s tail was its blood or Toxin.

Fortunately, since Robinson William had grabbed the tail of the Giant Scorpion, he could control the direction of the spraying liquid; it didn’t spray towards the factory nor accidentally hit him.

As the intensity of the spraying from the tail gradually decreased, the struggling strength of the Giant Scorpion also diminished. Finally, when the tail stopped spraying liquid, the Giant Scorpion continued struggling, but now it seemed somewhat feeble and powerless.

Realizing this, Robinson William shouted to the specialized combat team members who were watching, "Throw me a knife."

Upon hearing Robinson William’s call, one of the team members tossed a watermelon knife over.

Robinson William carelessly tossed away the dagger in his hand, easily catching the watermelon knife thrown at him with one hand. After getting the watermelon knife, he decisively chopped off the Giant Scorpion’s tail at its base.

Then he plunged the knife forcefully into a gap in the carapace on the back of the Giant Scorpion and yanked it hard, cutting the Giant Scorpion in two.
