Breed watched the dogs swing wide and scour the country off to the right of him till they appeared as swift-skimming dots in the distance. Then one of them lined out with increased speed as he topped a ridge. One after another Breed saw them flash over the skyline and disappear. Shady's first impression after taking the wrong turn in the coulee was one of vast relief at having evaded the dogs.
He could see quick spurts of water jet up along the edge of the sand, and one of the creatures fell, but this was only a chance shot. At that distance, firing from a swift-skimming plane, he knew he could do no execution, and with a curse slid the pistol back again into its place. "Oh, for a dirigible and a few Pulverite bombs, same as we had in the tower!" he wished.
Only then did the muffled double boom of the explosion reach the ears of the spectators, presently to be followed by a whispering, swift-skimming wavelet that swept irresistibly across the bigger surges and lapped the ship's side, as for a message that the work was done.
