Chapter 990 Courting Death
When the monster crawled out of the cave, everyone was terrified by its appearance.
The monster's head resembled some sort of insect, not only sporting two sharp, pointed horns but also a row of
razor-sharp teeth.
What was even more devastating was that this monster's body was covered in a thick layer of armor.
The reason the mercenaries couldn't inflict any damage on the monster was because of its armor.
“Run! Retreat!”
Faced with such a monster, Joachim finally gave up his own plans.
He now realized that the mercenaries he brought were simply not up to par.
However, it was all too late.
As all the mercenaries were boarding the vehicle, ready to drive off, the creature seemed to sense something.

Suddenly, the ground ahead began to stir.
The surface of the earth seemed to have turned into a liquid, its undulating movement appearing very peculiar.
Driving on this constantly fluctuating terrain, the jeep simply couldn't reach its full speed.
“No can do, Captain. We simply can't get through.”
The driver, Barney, looked at the road ahead with a face full of tension.
Just a moment ago, when he stepped on the accelerator, he could even feel the sensation of the tires wildly
skidding due to insufficient grip.
Joachim gritted his teeth and said to Barry, “If you don't want to die, then charge forward!”
Hearing Joachim say that, Barney knew he was out of options.
He floored the accelerator just as the road ahead smoothed out considerably.
The jeep was like a wild horse that had broken its reins, bolting at top speed.
Joachim and his group were lucky, but others weren't so fortunate.
Two jeeps nearby were also flooring the gas pedal, trying to break out just like Joachim and his team.
Who would have expected that just as they were charging forward, the ground would swell upwards?
This charge was equivalent to running into a wall.
Although the jeep wasn't severely damaged, it was impossible to get it started again in a short amount of time.
Before the mercenaries in the two vehicles could react, a scythe-like forearm, over seven meters long, descended
from the sky, killing all the mercenaries in the vehicles instantly.
Just like that, the monster used its sharp forearms to impale those people one by one like skewers, then tossed
them into its mouth.
“D*mn it. This monster actually wants to eat people!”
Joachim, who had already dashed out, looked back only to find that aside from their car, no one else had managed
to break free.

including one named Donald.
Joachim simply couldn't swallow his anger. He ripped open a piece of canvas in the car, pulled out a shoulder-
mounted bazooka from a wooden box, and hoisted it onto his shoulder.
He aimed the bazooka at the monster that was devouring humans.
Pulling the trigger, a rocket was launched, trailing a beautiful plume of smoke, and it hit the monster straight in the
mouth.
The moment the rocket exploded in the air, it was like a beautiful bouquet of fireworks, causing the monster to let
out a painful howl.
Seeing that the rocket was actually effective against the monster, Joachim suddenly felt emboldened.
“Quick, bring out all the rockets. I'm going to blow this b*stard to bits today!”
The others quickly took the remaining three rocket launchers from the vehicle and hoisted them onto their
shoulders.
Yet, in Donald's view, all of this was simply courting death.
Originally, that monster hadn't noticed us, but now you've gone and drawn its anger toward us.
