RUST [RUST]-587

Mwaaa …

Mooooooooooooooo!!!

The wolves were taken aback by the charge of the buffalo herd.

‘Are these guys crazy?’

Why are you suddenly going crazy after running away for thousands of kilometers?

That thought lasted only a moment, and the wolves had no choice but to admit that there was no way to stop that devastating charge.

Even before the mutation, they hunted old buffalo that had strayed from the herd or small, weak buffalo.

Buffaloes were not easy prey to catch.

In recent times, as the size of the herd has increased, it has become possible to hunt healthy buffalo, but the difference in mass resulting from the size cannot be completely ignored.

Krrrrrr (These guys are crazy for believing in their size.)

Krug? (What would you like to do?)

It would have been foolish to block that mad charge head-on.

Krrrrung (spread out and aim for the side)

Krr-

Krr-

Those guys only know how to go straight. If you dodge to the side and dig your claws into their soft lower abdomen, they’ll spill their intestines.

Krrrrrr- (Wait until I get close to the limit-)

The wolf leader thought as he pulled her in right in front and then dodged to the side, but his body suddenly froze.

?

I rolled my eyes and looked around.

The eyes of the subordinate wolves were visible.

All the subordinates were frozen. Fear and death were reflected in their dilated pupils.

Krrrr?

every-?

A feeling of suffocation.

A body that suddenly froze for no reason.

It only lasted a second, but that second was a matter of life and death.

Boom! Crunch!

Ppegeodeok-

Knock knock knock!

The wolves swept into the buffalo herd as if they had been swept away by an avalanche, breaking, snapping, and exploding.

Mwaaa …

Mooooooooooo!!!

Buffaloes begin to trample on the fallen wolf.

After turning the wolf into minced meat, the buffalo calms its breathing and expresses with its whole body the words, “I am good,” with its eyes as if nothing had happened.

The space above the blood-curdling wolves rippled and Maru’s figure was revealed. Using the stealth of the Ripper suit, he went near the wolf pack and unleashed his killing intent.

The soldiers resisting in the bunker were able to easily deal with the wolf because they had paralyzed its sense of smell.

Maru looked back at the buffalo, who was expressing ‘good, good’ with his whole body, and then went to the dug up bunker.

The faces of the soldiers were visible through the barricades that had been blocking the road. The faces that had been filled with fear and horror changed into ones of excitement and joy at the sight of Maru.

“You’ve all held up well. Now it’s time for us to hunt.”

At Maru’s declaration, soldiers rushed out of the bunker and shouted.

“Ohhhhhhhhhh!!!”

“HOLLY!!!”

“HOLLY!!!”

“Long live the Holy Kingdom!!!”

“Long live His Majesty Vladimir!!!”

Kim Yang and Major Roy Stern followed the buffalo as it moved stealthily to avoid the madness of the humans.

[You understand what I’m saying? If you want to run away, go away whenever you want. We’re already short on sirloin. Hurry up.]

Conspiracy—

Moooooooum—

[If I look a little strong, how about that can over there? You caught them all last time, right? You’re going to crush that thing and run away? To find freedom. Yeah?]

Major Roy Stern’s cavalry patrolling on the other side trembled like border collies, but the buffaloes did not fall for Kim Yang’s provocation.

[Tsk-]

I won’t talk about the sirloin steak.

======

The moose were pleased with the growing strength of the human forces as they went south. The bears, though struggling, seemed strong enough to hold back the wolves.

Whoosh whoosh (Stupid cows made the road and it’s like this.)

Purrrrr (I think it’s come down enough).

Hurrrrrr (After a short break, let’s get back on the road.)

There were many reasons for using man-made roads, but one of them was that they left behind a faint trace of movement.

If it snowed or rained while they were traveling on the road, even the predators’ keen sense of smell could not track them.

Even the stupid calves seemed to notice and use the road, but the amount of grass they had to eat to sustain their heavy bodies was enormous.

Although they were of the same size, they were able to reduce their tracks by eating leaves, fruit, and tree bark, at least enough to confuse the size of the group.

In contrast, buffaloes mainly ate grass. The desolate grassland continued as the buffalo herd moved.

Their habit of digging out snow and chewing on dried grass was bound to leave behind a large-scale trail. Bears and wolves could not possibly miss it.

Purururururur (It seems like the humans are really poisoned.)

Huruk huruk huruk (There are strange weapons mixed in. It’s dangerous to keep getting attacked by them. Several people have already been seriously injured.)

The wounds from the special bullets for monsters did not heal quickly. Deep wounds did not heal, but rather continued to drain stamina.

Hururururur (The lower you go, the more solid the human house becomes. It would be a good idea to turn east now.)

The moose, who were able to distinguish between special bullets for monsters and regular armor-piercing bullets, decided to stop heading south and turn east, but it was too late.

Doo doo doo doo-

Knock knock knock knock-

Hurr? (Buffalo?)

Pururur (The army running with their tails pulled out)

Prrrrrrrr? (Those kids aren’t slowing down, are they?)

Buffalo with red eyes pounced on a herd of resting moose.

Kwajik-

Quaddukduk-

Although they were similar in size, the buffalo was heavier, and the added acceleration created a shock that even the largest moose could not withstand.

The horns snapped and the huge body shook, but unlike the wolf, the buffalo’s charge stopped.

P-p-p-e-r-r-r-e-r! (What the heck is this!)

Mwaaa …

The wounded moose and the desperate buffalo clashed with all their might. Kim Yang’s eyes sparkled as he watched the battle between the two groups of monsters from afar.

[How about some moose steak today?]

I heard it was really delicious, but this is my first time trying it.

‘A deer that’s well-raised is delicious, but those are wild moose.’ Maru, who was about to say something, decided to keep Kim Yang’s expectations in check.

[Spread landmines to prevent them from escaping.]

The encirclement of the royal forces surrounding the moose herd slowly closed in.

======

======

The nightmare began for the moose herd when they ran into some crazy buffaloes. Yes, it was just a horrible nightmare.

A male moose that was wrestling with a buffalo suddenly collapsed. Just collapsed without any warning signs.

That was the beginning.

As the male moose began to fall one by one, the females, sensing danger, tried to run away with their immature calves, but the human flame had already taken root there.

Boom!

A loud bang followed as the moose struggled with its legs broken. Its struggle triggered a mine, and a bang followed.

You shouldn’t go here.

There’s something in the ground.

But the nose that could tell the difference was already saturated with gunpowder smoke and the smell of burning napalm.

The mad cows heard the loud noise and started to rampage more violently as if it was a signal.

Purrrrr! Hurrrr-(The bears and wolves are coming. If this continues, we’ll all die!)

MOOOOOOOOOO!!! (You are already dead!!!)

The chief moose was momentarily stunned by the buffalo’s shout.

Whoosh! (It’s stuck with a human!)

Conspiracy! (I’m alive. I will live. I will survive!)

Dirty bastards.

Sticking with humans.

I was furious, but the situation was hopeless. Humans who had hidden explosive weapons in the ground after surrounding me, crazy cows who were tangled up in me so I couldn’t escape. And I don’t know what it was, but there was something dangerous here.

It used to be that the leader was the one who was strong. As people grew bigger and stronger, it was natural that the wise male would become the leader.

In nature, wisdom was connected with the senses. A keen sense was the same as a sensitive wisdom.

So the leader could sense that something very dangerous was here.

Kujik-

As expected of the leader, the moose was the biggest and pressed down on the head of the buffalo that was clinging to him tenaciously. It was an exquisite press that took advantage of the height difference.

Uduk-

A moose leader, with his thick neck pressed down by a buffalo, kicks the buffalo’s eyes with his forelegs as it lowers its head.

The moose leader, who had been knocking the buffalo’s head with his front legs after being hit in the soft eye socket and losing strength, suddenly kicked his hindquarters into the air.

The strong wind pressure blew away the fallen leaves and snowflakes on the ground, and blurred figures appeared in the air.

Whoosh! (There you are!)

A moose, not a deer, but a wild horse, raised its horns into the air, having pinned down the buffalo.

Light weight felt on the horn.

Although it was not visible, it was possible to tell that a human had landed on the horn.

As he roughly shook his head, the light sensation on his horns disappeared. ‘Where are you?’ The head moose glared, and drops of blood spurted into his eyes.

Purururururuk! (Ahh. Eyes. My eyes!)

Maru, who had the knife stuck in his eyeball, shook his head in the direction the blade went.

!!!

Unable to bear the excruciating pain, the eldest moose stopped shaking his head and trembled. As the moose’s eyeball was almost completely gouged out, Maru pulled out Eclipse and planted a napalm grenade in its place.

Phew!

My bulging eyeball burst open and a jet of napalm flame engulfed my eye socket.

!!!

Slug- A black line followed at the same time as the body, unable to bear the pain, collapsed forward. Along that line of death, the red flesh began to split open.

The flesh flowed out in clumps, as if taking off a coat. Starting with the eyeballs, the jaw was cut off, and the neck muscles and carotid artery were separated.

Maru, with red blood splattering and his cover gone, ran on the back of the leader moose.

Dadadak-

Following the solid line that follows the footsteps, the right spine and ribs began to separate.

Boooooook—

The leader moose, who had lost all strength in his body, lay down on his side as if asking for a favor. Maru did not hesitate to show such consideration and ran towards his side again.

The flesh attached to the ribs falls off along the long solid line, and the intestines and heart are visible between the ribs like raw fish.

The moose leader’s futile trembling gradually ceased as his pitiful pumping heart gradually stopped.

In the one remaining eye of the chief moose, there was a sight of rising flames, desperate struggles of buffalo, and the sight of a herd being hunted.

‘Was that so?’

Was that what the buffaloes did to survive?

Surrender.

Surrender like a buffalo. Surrender and survive.

Without a chance to shout one last time to the dying crowd.

A black line was drawn along the back of the neck.

Krrrrrr–

The head of the chief moose was cut off along with the foam.

======

======

The situation changed smoothly.

Some of the moose and buffalo herds in other areas began to use their heads, but it was no use, for the moment Maru appeared, they were transformed into a mass pack of meat.

To the monsters, Maru was literally a living death and an unavoidable natural disaster.

“How’s the new formation?”

“It’s very effective.”

Unlike the first operation where they planned to create a long front line and cut through it with a sickle, the Holy Kingdom forces changed their formation to a battalion-level, dense formation.

This was because it was difficult to respond to bears and wolves that could pop out at any time if the wires were made of thin wires.

Since the herbivorous monsters were aiming for a conflict between humans and carnivorous monsters, it was more effective to take advantage of that.

When the herbivorous monsters try to break through the fortress, the battalion in charge of the defense slowly retreats, and the battalions on both sides begin to lay mines and begin to surround it.

As the minefield was finished, the retreating battalion began to counterattack using special bullets. The monsters, struggling against the power of the special bullets, fell into the minefield while trying to retreat or make a flanking attack.

After that, if you concentrate your firepower using armored exosuits and armored soldiers, use airships to bomb them, and mix in tear gas and white phosphorus grenades, it will take some time, but you can easily take them down without Maru.

“Don’t let your guard down and go in after making sure your sense of smell is completely numbed.”

“Everyone, keep that in mind.”

“What about Nana?”

“Moose, talking to the buffalo.”

What kind of story is this that will make you freeze to death…

It was either follow the plan or die immediately.

After several days, the large beast was finally caught by a crow’s reconnaissance.

[A bear has entered the area B. There is a mother bear and two little bears.]

[There are also bears in Area C. One towards Forts 11 and 12, and one between Forts 18 and 19.]

Maru shook his head after watching the reconnaissance footage.

“Tell them to just plant mines and retreat immediately.”

There was a reason why the moose and buffalo that had mutated into monsters ran away.
