“Prepare yourselves, that’s our target for this mission,” Chen Dalong said in a lowered voice, his tone somewhat excited.
Because the Mutated Gazelle was much larger than the Mutated Spider, it was expected to yield more military exploits based on size alone.
Moreover, besides the Second Order Gazelle, the remaining four First Order Gazelles were also quite substantial in size. Although not quite a ton, they were each certainly over a thousand pounds.
However, in contrast to Chen Dalong’s excitement, the expressions on the faces of the rest of the team were much more cautious.
“Boss, is it too dangerous to take on this thing? If it runs faster than the Mutated Wild Boar, and if it charges into our formation…” Li Huosheng didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.
Even ordinary gazelles are fast runners, let alone Mutated Gazelles; if one were to charge with that size, it would likely be fatal upon impact.
Everyone present could conceive of this, whether they had experienced the attacks of Mutated Wild Boars or Mutated Buffalos; an involuntary sense of dread surfaced on their faces.
Chen Dalong didn’t answer directly but analyzed, “It took me about 100 bullets to kill the Mutated Wild Boar, and only a third of those were armor-piercing.”
“Considering the size of this Mutated Gazelle, its defensive power obviously isn’t as strong. I reckon about 50 armor-piercing bullets should be enough to take it down.”
“So, let’s all take out some armor-piercing bullets and hand them to Liu Wenhua and Xie Guanzhong. We’ll have them use exclusively armor-piercing bullets for shooting, and with our coordinated firepower, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”
As he spoke, his gaze inevitably drifted to Liu Wenhua and Xie Guanzhong, the two snipers.
After exchanging glances, Liu Wenhua said, “We’ve never seen its running speed, so we can’t guarantee success.”
“But if its speed doesn’t exceed twice that of the Mutated Spider, we are more than 70 percent sure we can take it down.”
“Okay, in that case, let’s move out!” Chen Dalong declared instantly.
The rest of the team quickly prepared, each finding their own shooting position.
Chen Dalong joined Liu Wenhua and Xie Guanzhong.
Seeing them meticulously adjust their firearms, understanding their nervousness, he couldn’t help but pat them on the shoulders.
“Relax, don’t put too much pressure on yourselves. If anything goes wrong, I’m still here. You probably have some guesses about my identity,” Chen Dalong reassured them, then lifted a large machete and moved to the forefront of the group.
At that moment, there was an aura about him, as if one man were guarding a pass against ten thousand enemies.
Watching his increasingly towering figure, everyone’s confidence surged and their anxiety eased.
But if someone could see Chen Dalong’s face up close, they would notice that it too was tinged with nervousness.
“Lord Parrot, is this really going to be okay?” Chen Dalong asked in a hushed tone.
“Don’t worry; I won’t let anything happen to you. You need to show your strength now; otherwise, how will you be able to pursue them convincingly later?” The composed voice of the Mutated Parrot sounded.
Chen Dalong stopped overthinking it, took a deep breath, and slowly raised one hand.
Upon seeing this gesture, everyone aimed their guns.
Whoosh!
The next instant, his arm dropped.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
An intense barrage of gunfire suddenly erupted in the woods.
The unexpected ambush took the five Mutated Gazelles by complete surprise, and all of them were hit.
The four First Order Gazelles fell into a pool of blood after the first volley of gunfire, each having been struck by four or five bullets. Even if they weren’t dead, they had lost all mobility.
But the Second Order Gazelle was different. It was targeted by at least half of the people, but after a round of shooting, it was hit only three times.
In fact, the moment everyone fired, it seemed to have sensed the danger and moved rapidly.

The mutated antelope, although massive in size, moved at a speed that was simply astounding, at least four or five times faster than the previously encountered mutated spider.
It was like a sports car at full throttle. Just after a sidestep, it locked onto Chen Dalong and the others, charging straight at them.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The gunfire continued, but the Second Order antelope was too fast, and it didn’t move in a straight line. Instead, it kept changing direction, causing the bullets of most people to miss.
Even though the bullet holes on its body were increasing, the distance between them was only about thirty to forty meters.
Under these circumstances, it was simply impossible to take it down before it broke through their ranks.
Chen Dalong’s forehead was covered in sweat, his hand holding the blade was also trembling unconsciously.
It was at this moment that Chen Dalong suddenly felt a chilling sensation make his hair stand on end.
A terrifying presence emerged.
But this aura was not emanating from the mutated antelope — it was coming from behind him.
The moment this presence rose, the mutated antelope, as if encountering the most terrifying thing, stopped its frenzied charge instantly, whirled around, and fled desperately.
“Quick! Chase after it,” Chen Dalong had no time to relax before he heard the urging voice of the mutated parrot.
Without the time to think, he took off at top speed, holding the knife in one hand and the gun in the other, and disappeared from everyone’s sight in the blink of an eye.
Behind the group, a giant king cobra over 50 meters in length was slowly making its retreat, leaving dead silence in its wake.
On the other side, after a panicked dash for over two hundred meters, the mutated antelope passed by a bush, from which a gigantic mutated buffalo suddenly burst out.
Caught off guard, it was knocked into the air and flew over a dozen meters.
The antelope rolled over, got up, and fled in the other direction, but this delay allowed Chen Dalong to pull away from the others.
Once Ye Feng, who had possessed the mutated parrot, was sure he wouldn’t be discovered, he swooped down toward Chen Dalong.
At the same time he said, “Throw the knife over!”
Seeing Lord Parrot, Chen Dalong didn’t hesitate and threw the knife over, but after the mutated parrot caught the big knife, it threw it toward the bushes on the other side.
Before the big knife hit the ground, a large yellow blur leaped out from the bushes, catching the handle of the knife in its mouth.
Before Chen Dalong could clearly see what it was, the figure turned into a bolt of yellow lightning, vanishing from his sight in a flash.
Chen Dalong paused slightly, but he didn’t hesitate and chased after it.
When he had rushed another two hundred or so meters, he witnessed a sight that shocked him.
A big yellow dog was holding a large knife in its mouth, running around the mutated antelope at a terrifying speed. Each time it got close to the antelope, the big knife left a long gash on its body.
By the time Chen Dalong arrived, the mutated antelope was already covered in knife wounds.
At that moment, the big yellow dog seemed to glance at Chen Dalong. Its figure flashed again, leaping past the front of the mutated antelope.
As it did so, the big knife in its mouth slashed across the antelope’s throat.
Thud!
The mutated antelope finally could not hold on any longer and fell to the ground, dead.

The next chapter may have to wait until tonight.
I haven’t saved any drafts, so when it gets busy, it’s like this, sigh~
