237 Australia (1/2)
Australia was also called a continental country. The continent of Australia occupied a continent that was the driest and not-so-fertile land. The continent of Australia was a continent with a flat topography. There was indeed a dividing mountain range in the state, but it couldn't really be called a mountain range, as the height of the ”mountains” was no more than 1,600 meters above the sea level. To be more accurate, the ”mountains” were hills.
The central area of this continent was filled with deserts. Named deserts of Australia cover 1,371,000 square kilometers or 18% of Australia's mainland. However, approximately 35% of the Australian continent received extremely little rain that those areas were effectively deserts. The deserts in Australia were primarily distributed throughout the western plateau and interior lowlands of the country.
1,500 kilometers south of the City of Darwin was one of the ten deserts of the Australian continent. This desert was called the Tanami Desert. It had a rocky terrain with small hills. The Tanami Desert was the northern territory's final frontier and had not been fully explored until the 20th century. The name Tanami meant ”to never die”. This referred to certain rock holes in the desert which were said to never run dry.
After the apocalypse came, the Australian wilderness became a major hotbed for mutated animals. In a certain area of these deserts, a cloud of dust was forming at a fast speed. A group of mutated beasts could be seen running very rapidly in a group.
[Mutated Dingo]
[Level 45 mutated beast]
[Tier 2 medium-level]
The dingo was an Australian wild dog, but numerous scientists were still unsure about whether this animal should be categorized as a dog or a wolf. However, it was clear that these mutated dingos, each of which was the size of a tiger, were very dangerous animals.
This medium-level Tier 2 beast could not be fought alone by an ordinary Earth Realm fighter. Moreover, these dingos were accustomed to hunting in groups. An ordinary Earth Realm fighter wouldn't be able to win a 1-on-1 against one of these mutated dingos, much less against a coordinated group of them.
At this moment, there were at least a dozen mutated beasts here chasing a fast-moving vehicle.
”Auntie, hurry up, go faster! Press the pedal as hard as you can! They're catching up to us!”
”What!! This son of a b*tch, just who are you calling Auntie!” shouted a beautiful blonde woman. She was the one who was driving that vehicle.
”Haha, this is the Auntie's own fault! Who is it that didn't allow us to drive!”
”Huh! Especially you two, there is absolutely no way I'll let you drive.”
”Step on that gas! They're getting closer!”
Far ahead, another similar vehicle could be seen unmoving the middle of the desert.
A voice was heard from the other side of the radio in the vehicle, ”Team A, come in.”
The blonde woman immediately grabbed the radio and shouted at the person on the other side of the radio, ”Theo!! we see you!”
”Yeah, I can clearly see the cloud of dust you're making from here... we're ready!”
”All right then, let's get this party started!”
The blonde woman tuned in to the radio and a
loud rock music began playing.
”Now that's more like it, Auntie! This is much more exciting!”
”Stop calling me that! Call me Sister Cindy or Pretty Sister!”
”Got it, Pretty Auntie!!”
”!!” This little—
Even though they were being chased by a group of high-level mutated beasts, it could be seen that these three in the vehicle were not afraid at all. In the other vehicle, which was about a kilometer ahead, three other people could be seen seemingly waiting.
”How is it?” a young man with wounds all over his body exclaimed in question.
”Well, you know exactly what they're like… Why is it so hard for them to be serious for once!” exclaimed Theo in slight annoyance, scratching his head.
”Well, at least they're fine,” the man with wounds all over his body then looked at the young woman who was in the vehicle. ”You can get yourself ready now, Dinda.”
”All right, on it.”
The young woman wearing a hijab walked out of the vehicle, got on, and stood on the vehicle holding a bow and an arrow.
Dinda set her eyes deep towards the approaching puff of dust. The hot sun did not seem to obstruct her focus at all. This woman was a former Olympic archery athlete. She swiftly took an arrow and then drew the bow.
[Longbow - Tier 2]
[Weighs 12 kilograms]
[Increases strength]
As they drew closer and closer, from behind the puff of dust, dozens of mutated beasts that were approaching at a very fast speed were finally almost fully visible.
500 meters away! An arrow was released.
SPLAT!! The arrow pierced the head of one of those mutated monsters and that monster immediately died.
400 meters away!
SPLAT!!
Another arrow immediately pierced the second mutated beast. The animal did not even have time to escape and immediately fell.
300 meters away! Splatt!!
200 meters away! Splatt!!
This time, at a distance of 100 meters, Dinda immediately took three arrows and drew the three arrows at once in one pull.
[Arrow Arts - Advanced - Multi shot]
SPLATTT!!!
This time, three arrows pierced three wild mutated dingos at once, causing them to fall and roll to their death.
The rest of the mutated dingos that were attacking them noticed that the attacks came from a different vehicle in a different direction. Because of that, they changed the direction of their attack towards that vehicle altogether.
In less than 3 seconds, the six mutated dingos instantly pounced on Dinda. Even so, there were no signs of panic on her face at all. The man with wounds all over his body got out of the vehicle with two short machetes in his hands. Standing straight in front of the beasts that were charging at him, this man was not afraid in the slightest.
He immediately uttered three words:
[Gust of Wind]
Suddenly, a strong wind charged at six mutated beasts, forcing them to stop their steps. They still constantly struggled to keep attacking, however...
