Apocalypse Invasion: Survival on the Infinite Train
For any species, an increase in size brings a disproportionate increase in lethality.
Take cats and tigers, for example.
Their physical structures are fundamentally similar, as are their hunting styles and diets, yet tigers are apex predators while cats are kept as pets. The core reason for this is simply the cat's small size.
At a weight of only a few kilograms, even if their bite force, agility, and attack speed are excellent, their lethality is negligible when facing humans who are ten times their size.
What if we apply this change to the Geocentric Pterosaurs?
Everyone present felt a sense of despair the moment they saw that massive Geocentric Pterosaur in the sky.
It was the helplessness and frustration one feels when facing a colossal creature that cannot be resisted.
Ming Chu was equally shocked, but she immediately recalled the note she had received on the train. She decisively commanded, "They have keen hearing but likely poor eyesight. Everyone, stay silent and find cover nearby. Two people, stay behind to provide me with cover for 30 seconds!"
"Do as Ming Chu says!" Director Jin was equally decisive. As the highest-ranking person present, his orders were to be obeyed by everyone.
The two who stayed behind were the long-legged woman and a SWAT officer who stood nearly two meters tall.
Ming Chu asked concisely, "Do you have grenades? Give me a gun, too."
Once she had the gun and a few grenades tossed to her by others, Ming Chu grabbed them, fired with one hand, and began moving in the opposite direction of the crowd.
Only her position had gunfire, and the Geocentric Pterosaurs were indeed drawn to it; more than half of them flew toward her.
The long-legged woman and the tall SWAT officer understood Ming Chu's intent. Without hesitation, they ran in two other directions, firing their weapons to hit their targets while drawing the creatures away.
The smaller Pterosaurs were lured away, but the massive one heard the noise as well.
It, too, began to change direction.
