Laser locators are densely distributed everywhere ahead, and there's no way forward!

What should we do?

Sun Cheng furrowed his brow and stood still. His gaze lingered for a while on the flickering red dots in the muddy ground ahead before he turned to Safeguard and asked, "Is there any way to deactivate them?"

"After the laser locators are activated, they can be shut down through the control system or destroyed by external force..."

"Destroyed by external force?"

He hesitated for a moment, then searched nearby for a while before finally finding a rock. He took several steps back, only feeling somewhat safe, and picked up the rock, squinting as he aimed it at one of the laser locators and threw it.

"Crack!"

Although the distance wasn't great, the rock hit one of the laser locators fairly accurately.

However, what puzzled him was that the laser locator on the ground showed no response, as if it hadn't been triggered or damaged at all.

Perhaps even Safeguard couldn't bear it anymore and spoke up, saying, "Master, the locators are triggered only by organisms with thermal energy reactions, not by throwing rocks..."

"Thermal energy reactions..."

This made him frown. Did he have to go hunt a dinosaur and use it to trigger these locators?

Feeling helpless and frustrated by the deadlock, Sun Cheng had no choice but to ask, "Are there any other paths we can take to bypass these locators and reach the spaceship?"

"No, the hunters have positioned locators in all directions around the spaceship..."

This was a predicament!

After pondering for a while, a sudden thought crossed his mind. He reached for a hand grenade from his waist and picked it up, then asked, "If I use a hand grenade, can it destroy these locators?"

"It's possible!"

Safeguard's response was very straightforward. "When the hand grenade explodes, it generates a significant amount of heat. Even if it doesn't destroy them directly, it can trigger all the locators within its range. However, the straight-line distance from here to the location where we discovered the Tyrannosaurus Rex and the ghost won't exceed one kilometer. Once the hand grenade explodes, there may be unforeseen consequences!"

What were these unforeseen consequences?

Most likely, the explosion would attract both the ghost and the Tyrannosaurus Rex!

Sun Cheng hesitated for a moment, but he felt that the risk was worth taking.

He had already come this far, and with the ghost's spaceship within reach, there was absolutely no reason to give up!

At that moment, Sun Cheng immediately made a decision in his heart. He asked Safeguard to mark the positions of the locators ahead. After calculating for a while, he gritted his teeth, took a few steps back, and pulled the pin of the grenade. Then, he quickly ran a few steps backward and fell face-first into the muddy ground.

"Boom!"

Soon, there was a loud explosion behind him. The flying shrapnel shattered the bark of the surrounding trees, and the splattered muddy sludge even landed on his head.

"Did it work?"

After the brief ringing in his ears subsided, Sun Cheng shook his dazed head and couldn't help but ask Safeguard aloud.

The sound of flapping wings flew away in the distance and quickly returned. Then, Safeguard's cold electronic voice rang out, "Master, three of them were successfully destroyed. The remaining six have also been triggered. There are no more locators in the outer perimeter."

Safeguard, like Vengeance, had retreated to a safe distance before the explosion, so they weren't harmed.

Upon hearing this, Sun Cheng couldn't help but feel relieved.

He raised his flashlight and looked ahead. He saw that the exploded grenade had left a deep hole in the ground. The area was filled with smoke. As he approached and examined it carefully, he confirmed that he could no longer see the red dots of the locators.

Just as he was feeling excited, a sudden roar of a giant beast came from the distant mountains and forests. It was deep, powerful, and filled with anger. It was undoubtedly the same roar of the tyrannosaurus he had heard through the trees not long ago.

Sun Cheng's heart sank, and he immediately wiped the joy off his face.

He quickly got up from the ground. Since Safeguard had confirmed the area was safe, he didn't bother to wipe off the mud on his body. He ran directly forward.

In the distant mountains and forests, the anxious screams of birds and the sound of toppling trees could be heard from time to time, which only further pushed Sun Cheng to quicken his pace.

However, after running only about thirty or forty meters, Safeguard, flying ahead, once again stopped and called out to him, "Master, stop. There are locators at the 11 o'clock, 1 o'clock, and 3 o'clock directions, within a range of three to five meters. Please destroy them."

Based on his previous experience, Sun Cheng decisively took out another grenade, pulled the pin, threw it, and then stepped back to take cover.

The explosion once again destroyed the locators set by the ghost, intensifying the anger of the tyrannosaurus rex in the woods. The sound grew closer to Sun Cheng.

Sun Cheng didn't dare to linger. As soon as Safeguard confirmed his safety, he immediately rushed forward. This time, he ran another forty meters before Safeguard stopped him once again. "At 10 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock, 4 o'clock, and 6 o'clock ahead, there are locators within a range of two to four meters. Please destroy them."

Sun Cheng took out a grenade and held it in his hand, his face turning grim. "Safeguard, how many more locators are there ahead?"

Although the United States is a country that allows the trade of military weapons, hand grenades are clearly not available in regular weapon stores.

There are only a few grenades in the security room on the island, most likely obtained through private channels. When leaving the research center, Sun Cheng only took four for convenience.

"This is the last location in this direction. The hunter's spaceship is currently just over ten meters ahead of the owner at approximately 11 o'clock!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Cheng couldn't help but become excited and quickly looked in that direction. However, to his surprise, there was only an empty space, and there was no spaceship to be found!

Just as he was puzzled, another furious roar came from behind. He quickly turned around, although he didn't see anything, he knew from the sound that the Tyrannosaurus rex was getting closer.

At that moment, he didn't have time to ask Safeguard again. Sun Cheng quickly raised the grenade, pulled the pin, and threw it forward.

"Boom..."

The loud explosion served as a clear beacon.

"Roar..."

Along with the explosion, there was a terrifying beast roar and the sound of trees breaking. Although Sun Cheng didn't dare to move too far away this time, the searing heat from the explosion made him feel as if he were being roasted.

However, he couldn't afford to wait any longer, considering the approaching roar of the beast. He quickly got up from the ground, wiping the mud off his face. To his surprise, when he looked up, he saw a massive and terrifying monster charging towards him from over a hundred meters away.

The consecutive explosions, along with the working flashlight in Sun Cheng's hand, were the best indicators!

"Oh no..."

His face immediately sank, and in an instant, he felt cold sweat drenching his body.

In the afternoon, all the information about the Tyrannosaurus rex that Dr. Grant had mentioned came to his mind.

"... The Tyrannosaurus rex is an extremely ferocious and cunning predator. They possess a strong sense of territory, are crafty, treacherous, and easily angered... The Tyrannosaurus rex has a maximum bite force of approximately 183,000 to 235,000 newtons, which is a force capable of easily tearing apart an infantry fighting vehicle... Its muscles are highly developed, especially in its hind legs and tail. If it were to step on a car with its hind legs, it could easily flatten it, and its tail can whip prey weighing two or three tons... Slow speed is perhaps the only weakness of the Tyrannosaurus rex. Of course, I mean that it is not as fast as our cars. However, based on the data, the Tyrannosaurus rex can reach speeds of thirty to forty kilometers per hour. This means that if humans coexisted with it in the same era, the only thing we could do when encountering a Tyrannosaurus rex would be to pray that it is satiated..."

In his mind, a multitude of thoughts flashed in an instant. Sun Cheng felt that death was closer to him than ever before, and even his thoughts seemed to be frozen.

"Master, it has been confirmed that there is no locator ahead..."

Fortunately, the cold electronic voice, like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, instantly snapped him out of his daze.

After regaining his composure, Sun Cheng quickly struggled to get up from the ground, no longer daring to turn his head and look at the terrifying giant beast that had already charged to a distance of several dozen meters away from him. He exerted all his strength and headed towards the spaceship.
