In fact, this approach is even simpler.

As Lin Yue pondered, he quickly maneuvered the vehicle closer to the giant creature.

With less than two hundred meters left, Lin Yue abruptly halted the vehicle!

"Xiao Meng, prepare for battle!"

He swiftly climbed onto the roof and set up the sniper rifle!

Swish!

A gunshot echoed like thunder. In an instant, a bullet shot out, and the Lizardman leading the giant creature was hit in the thigh and fell to the ground!

Lin Yue quickly pulled the trigger, and before the other Lizardmen could react, another dozen bullets flew out, and all the remaining Lizardmen fell to the ground!

Killing them is not feasible for now; if the loot boxes burst open directly, they might get picked up by Lizardmen suddenly emerging from underground, causing a great loss.

The wails of the Lizardmen were audible to Lin Yue, but before they could cry for long, they were trampled by the heavy giant legs, turning into a pulp under the giant creature’s feet!

"Okay, next..."

However, at that moment, strange noises suddenly emerged from the ground nearby, and almost simultaneously, large holes appeared around the truck!

"Xiao Meng, send out the Little Ice Lizards now!"

"Roar!"

"Squeak squeak!" The Little Ice Lizards transformed into streaks of white light and split into several groups, charging into the holes where Lizardmen heads had emerged!

Screams soon echoed from inside the holes.

But more ground holes appeared at a distance!

Lin Yue also noticed that the giant creature seemed to be attracted by something and was heading straight in his direction.

Ha, it’s coming directly at me?

Quite bold!

"Xiao Meng, get ready to fight. I’ll first make this thing blind!" Lin Yue glanced at the increasing number of Lizardman ambushers.

He quickly fired a bullet!

Through the sighting scope, the creature’s six coal-black eyes embedded at the front edge of its head revealed, with the top-left one instantly blasted by the bullet!

And before it could react to the pain, Lin Yue’s bullets had penetrated four more eyes consecutively!

"Screech!"

The cry of the giant creature was extremely unpleasant, but Lin Yue paid no attention to it, firing his bullet again!

This time, the giant creature swung its head in pain, causing the bullet to miss its remaining eye and hit its upper eyelid instead!

"Tsk, one eye will do, Xiao Meng!"

Lin Yue shouted, and Xiao Meng, who had been on the vehicle, rushed to the front.

Countless Lizardmen emerged from various holes all around, even though there were three hundred Little Ice Lizards, it was impossible to handle all the enemies appearing from the pits.

Xiao Meng remained focused, knowing well that these Lizardmen could not harm the Little Ice Lizards; its job was to obliterate the Lizardmen gradually closing in.

Xiao Meng suddenly roared as it charged forward, tearing apart and crushing each Lizardman blocking Lin Yue’s path!

Thanks to its efforts, a path soaked in Lizardmen blood was quickly opened!

Lin Yue returned to the driver’s seat and restarted the heavy truck.

There was still some distance to the giant creature; aside from the sniper rifle, other weapons couldn’t reach the creature which was three to four hundred meters away, so he needed to get closer.

The roar of the truck startled the Lizardmen nearby, and Lin Yue quickly accelerated, crashing through the path Xiao Meng had cleared!

Lizardmen unable to dodge in time were flung away by the truck’s impact, while others became crushed under the wheels...

However, Lin Yue hadn’t driven a hundred meters before realizing he could no longer advance.

Too many Lizardmen were gathered ahead!

Within just a few dozen meters, Lizardmen surged like a tide from underground, swarming wildly toward the truck!

Moreover, there were the most Lizardmen in the front direction!

Even the Lizardmen on the sides gathered at the front, seemingly trying to block him from attacking the giant creature!

Xiao Meng fought furiously, yet couldn’t wipe out all of them,

As expected.

The Lizardmen had committed a substantial force and responded quite quickly.

Their numbers were not just ten thousand.

It might be tens of thousands!

So many Lizardmen collectively charging this way suggests their moves are following my analysis.

They are not disorganized, nor without strategy. Now, it’s clear there’s a force driving them.

Lin Yue noticed that upon seeing him, Lizardmen rushed over rapidly without concerning themselves with Xiao Meng and Little Ice Lizards.

Moreover, it seemed they didn’t intend to kill him but charged bare-handed.

This fact made him believe his thoughts weren’t misplaced.

Lizardmen want him alive!

Their goal is the system that guarantees loot boxes!

"Retreat? I will never retreat! Besides, these rotten tomatoes and stinky eggs think they can catch me?" Lin Yue jumped off the truck and immediately stored it in the Storage Space.

He could reverse the truck and return to the shelter, but that wouldn’t change anything.

The giant creature would still charge towards the shelter, and these Lizardmen would do likewise.

So instead...

Turn adversity into opportunity!

Then he took out the Backpack Flame Sprayer and immediately strapped it onto himself!

"The ground is unreachable, then advance through the air! Xiao Meng, retreat to the shelter! Now!"

"Gau!" Xiao Meng had been chasing and fighting the Lizardmen, now he responded upon hearing Lin Yue’s shout nearby.

Lin Yue took a deep breath.

The enemy’s target was him; Xiao Meng and the others better return to the shelter!

Last night, he had tried flying for about an hour wearing the Light-Dissolving Nightwear Set.

While Bai and the others were resting, intending to rest himself, he went outside to satisfy his curiosity, took it out, and filled it with fuel.

Then, nearly an hour of exploration and familiarization ensued.

In the air, it didn’t feel too comfortable, especially having to control forward, backward, left, right, and monitor altitude, honestly making him dizzy for a while.

Yet, within an hour, thanks to his strong learning and comprehension abilities, he grasped plenty, though not fully proficient, he could fly freely in the air according to his will.

At this moment, Lin Yue pressed the hand switch, quickly feeling a series of vibrations on his back!

Soon, wearing windproof goggles, he soared, reaching a height of nearly thirty meters!

Some Lizardmen reacted, raising bows to shoot Lin Yue down.

But Lin Yue accelerated like an arrow leaving the bowstring, shooting out from the spot!

Lin Yue also rushed towards the giant creature at top speed, and landed again on the side within a hundred meters, standing firmly on the ground.

The Backpack Flame Sprayer proved quite powerful!

He glanced back; the nearest Lizardmen were over six to seven hundred meters away!

The distance was enough, and there was ample time!

He turned to face the giant creature once more.

The giant creature was actually not terrifying.

Besides being somewhat large in size, it posed little threat.

To defeat it, one simply needed to find a way to burn it!

On the ground, Lin Yue quickly deployed ten crossbow carriages, placing explosive bolts on them!

These explosive bolts, packed with explosives, not only caused massive explosions but also shot steel balls on the blast, inflicting damage within a range!

What if all ten crossbow carriages fired ten explosive bolts at once, targeting the seemingly weak defense at the giant creature’s side flank?

Lin Yue glanced at the giant creature, still frantically twisting its head in pain from the damage to its eyes.

He aimed at it, then stomped the triggers of all ten crossbow carriages with his foot!

Thoom!!

One after another, explosive bolts tore through the air like meteors, charging directly towards the giant creature!
