Chapter 123: Treasure Chest Monsters Will Appear in Any Possible Form

To be honest, the mutant crabs are not weak. It can even be said that they are the monsters with the strongest comprehensive values ​​among the ordinary templates that Cheng Tian and his friends have encountered in Metal Slug so far.

Not only does it have high strength and high HP, but its agility is also much higher than other ordinary units. Even its unit characteristic "Heavy Shell" can provide additional physical defense and firearm defense effects. Its HP quality is far greater than the numerical value shows.

If a group of teams encounters a number of mutant crabs of this size, the general team can only flee in panic. The only way to break the situation is to rely on the originally narrow terrain of the wormhole to limit the number of opponents and force them into a gang fight.

Otherwise, there must be one or two very good output-type spellcasters in the team who can use spells with high damage and can be used frequently, so that the mutant crab's health can be weakened more easily.

But Cheng Tian and the others are obviously not of this type. The only one who can be considered a spellcaster is Uncle Xue, and he is more focused on control than damage.

Therefore, the strategy for Peregrine 004 team to break the deadlock is also very simple, which is to use control and violent output.

Smart Head and Uncle Snow took turns controlling the situation, preventing the crabs from getting close easily, and then it was the turn of the Zombie Chariot to attack with all its strength.

Of course, others were not idle either. With Xiao P's temporary processing, the wormhole platform was expanded and gradually expanded to a spacious level enough to accommodate all of Cheng Tian's tanks. Before Cheng Tian had time to use rapid deployment to summon the Iron Bull tank, the Mammoth couldn't wait to drill out.

With the intuition of being a genetically modified and enhanced unit, the mammoth can sense the smell in the mutant crab that is similar to that of giant locusts and walking carnivorous plants. Therefore, the mutant crab with a ferocious appearance and shape like a heavy armored infantry among animals is directly on the must-eat list for the mammoth!
Again, for animals that don't have high intelligence, the standard for judging the degree of danger to the enemy and friend is generally based on body size. So when faced with the 2.7-meter-tall smart head that has returned to normal, several crabs that were previously seriously injured have already backed down.

Anyway, there are fungal mats and bugs all over the ground to eat, so there is no need to go against these humans.

However, when they saw the war mammoth with a pointed head and a height of nearly four meters, most of the crabs lost their fighting spirit. Even a few crabs that did not participate in the attack at the first time, perhaps because they were too soundly asleep or had eaten before, came out from the ground and began to run deeper into the cave.

However, just as he was tracking the crab in his field of vision, with the added vision of the moth helmet, Cheng Tian saw a human head suddenly pop out from under the chassis of the drill tank!

He looked at the potholes around him with a weak and fearful expression, and then his eyes found the direction where Cheng Tian and the others were.

Although there is a bit of distance, but this facial feature, this expression, and these tear marks, wow~ highlight the sense of pity.

I guess this must be one of the members of Sparrow 001 Team?

In response to this, Cheng Tian made the following response:

He raised his tracking missile launcher and began shooting at the woman and the drill tank without mercy. Cheng Tian even saw that when he pulled the trigger and the missile flew out of the muzzle, the woman's face visibly turned into shock and even a little anger.

There were several key points that Cheng Tian couldn't figure out, which made him decide to attack players in the same camp.

First, this woman was definitely tougher than she looked. Being able to coexist peacefully with the crabs in such a dangerous area meant she must have some special talents. Then, Curry Singh learned that they had recently lost a man during the wormhole assault, meaning they could still fight even with only one or two men left.

The final result is the epitome of Cheng Tian’s personal arbitrariness and prejudice.

He always felt that a tough guy who could survive for two days in such an environment should not show such an expression of deliberate weakness. This behavior, and the drill tank with its hatch open right there, had too much of the smell of an inducement trap. Cheng Tian felt that there was something wrong.

As I said, being in the same camp does not mean that the other party is your teammate. In a sense, you should even pay more attention to guarding against the so-called teammates in the same camp. Who knows if they will instantly judge the camp and attack you.

And there are actual cases. Isn't the female mummy a living example?
It's no wonder that the copy entry clearly states that the faction can be switched. This may be the faction feature of Metal Slug.

Cheng Tian's C-gun missiles were clearly aimed at the woman, but they all swayed and flew towards the top of the cave, which was also covered with luminous fungal carpet.

And with this explosion, an object actually emerged from the broken wall, fell down with some rock debris, and fell straight to the ground in a sitting position. Cheng Tian and the woman with a look of surprise and anger on her face couldn't help but focus their eyes on it.

It was a very simple-looking rag doll, with hair that looked like it was woven from straw, two buttons for eyes, and a mouth that was sewn up like a scarecrow. There wasn't much childishness in it, only a sense of fear like the uncanny valley effect.

This is clearly a hidden item that requires special means to trigger, and this type of item usually has special effects or high recycling value.

However, after seeing the appearance of the object clearly, Cheng Tian thought for a while and then raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Then he made a slightly clumsy gesture, but it was obvious that he was ready to jump off the platform to snatch the rag doll.

Seeing Cheng Tian actually making such a move, the woman who realized something also looked serious. All the shock and anger on her face disappeared. She jumped forward and smoothly got out of the chassis of the drill tank, then rushed towards the rag doll at a faster speed.

The opponent was obviously closer than Cheng Tian and approached faster, but when Xiao P and Uncle Xue wanted to use long-range attacks, they saw Cheng, who had jumped off the platform and stood with Congmingtou, made a "stop" gesture behind him.

At this time, Cheng Tian's status as captain and the execution ability of the members of Peregrine 004 team were fully demonstrated. They did not question Cheng Tian's behavior, but directly stopped using their skills.

So, the woman successfully got one step ahead of Cheng Tian and grabbed the simple rag doll in her hand. She even shook it at Cheng Tian with a smug expression.

But at this moment, the rag doll in the woman's hand suddenly made a sound that was obviously not what a rag doll should make, as if some mechanism had been activated.

By the time the woman realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

The simple rag doll was already emitting a scorching and dazzling light——

boom!
