2345 Sea of poisonous bugs (1)
The middle-aged cultivator and the leader heaved a sigh of relief. Some of their subordinates looked as if they had just survived a disaster.
Because he was leaning against a tree, he didn’t have to worry about his back being attacked. He only needed to be careful of his surroundings.
In addition, they had to be careful of their heads. Who knew if these long-haired monsters could climb trees and attack from above?
Beams of flashlights shone in all directions, looking for traces of the long-haired monsters. Some people raised their handguns and crossbows, ready to attack at any time.
Although the vegetation in the valley was dense, there were fortunately not many trees around the big tree they were standing on.
Due to the wide field of vision, the long-haired monster did not have any cover, so it did not dare to approach.
everyone, keep your spirits up. As long as we can hold on until dawn, we’ll have a chance to get out of this predicament!
The leader’s voice sounded. His tone was very heavy. Clearly, he also knew that things were not that simple.
At this time, the members of the team were all injured, and their faces were filled with shock. They were clearly frightened by the fierce long-haired monster.
Before entering the forest, they probably never thought that there would actually be such a large number of casualties!
Looking at the corpses in the forest and the long-haired monsters that appeared from time to time, everyone felt fear and a trace of despair.
The most fatal point was that they still didn’t know the background of the enemy.
Was it a mountain elf or a wild monster controlled by a human? why was it so fierce and terrifying?
Although they were safe for the time being, the crisis had not been resolved yet. Before the mission ended, how many more people would lose their lives?
everyone, stay calm. As long as we defend our faction, those monsters won’t be able to get their way!
The leader said again. At this critical moment, he had to play a role of stabilizing the hearts of the people and ensure that the team would not collapse from fear.
As for the middle-aged cultivator, he was still half-dead and was sitting on the ground to recuperate.
The rune daggers were seriously injured by Tang Zhen. He needed a long time to recover. His current state was equivalent to recovering from a serious illness. Even walking was very difficult.
It was for this reason that the middle-aged cultivator hated Tang Zhen to death and wished he could eat his flesh raw.
Unfortunately, other than gnashing his teeth, he was unable to do anything else. In fact, he was even secretly worried that Tang Zhen would attack again.
Previously, Tang Zhen’s attack had been blocked by the magic tool, allowing the middle-aged cultivator to escape from death. However, if Tang Zhen were to launch another attack, he would not be able to resist at all.
After all, he only had one defensive magical equipment on him, and it was unable to automatically defend against a fatal attack.
Tang Zhen was completely unaware that the middle-aged cultivator was both hateful and afraid of him. He was afraid that Tang Zhen would launch a sneak attack from a hidden place like he had done earlier.
Therefore, even when he was healing, he would hide at the back of the crowd. This way, if he was ambushed, he would have a human shield around him to block.
The ferocious long-haired monsters also became obedient. They had also been injured in the previous battle, and some of them had even been shot.
When they realized that the middle-aged cultivator and the others had huddled together and it was harder to get close to them, the long-haired monsters stopped attacking.
They hid in the forest, coldly watching these intruders, waiting for another chance to attack.
The originally noisy forest suddenly fell into a strange state of silence. There was almost no movement.
However, the aura that made people feel despair did not dissipate. Instead, it filled the entire forest.
Tang Zhen squatted on a large tree nearby and quietly watched the two groups of enemies confronting each other. He did not have any intention of making a move for the time being.
In a situation where the enemy was fully focused on defending the surroundings, it was very likely that he would expose his position once he attacked.
Therefore, it was better to wait slowly and make a move at the right time, or simply not make a move.
Tang Zhen did not know exactly how strong he was. He had never experienced such a battle before. Although he was not afraid, he would not easily provoke an attack.
If possible, he hoped that the two sides would fight to the death, and then he would clean up the mess. Wouldn’t that be better?
The clone floated in mid-air, quietly watching the battle in the forest, as if it was watching a group of bugs biting each other.
He did not have the slightest interest in a battle of this level. If Tang Zhen was not involved, he would not even bother to take a look.
As for helping Tang Zhen out of the situation, there was even less of a need for him to do so. This was because it was impossible for these enemies to harm him.
In fact, even Tang Zhen himself did not realize that ever since that night in the alley, his body had not suffered the slightest injury.
His body, which seemed no different from an ordinary person’s, had already reached a level where he was almost immortal. Even if he stood there and allowed the enemy to attack him, nothing would happen to him.
Of course, Tang Zhen himself did not know about this, and his clone would not deliberately remind him. Everything would just go with the flow.
Just as the three sides fell into a state of silence, a rustling sound suddenly came from the silent forest.
The sound was like a hard bamboo leaf sliding across grass. It was made from countless sources of sound gathered together. Otherwise, the sound wouldn’t be so loud.
“What’s going on?”
Hearing such an abnormal sound, everyone was slightly shocked and looked in the direction of the sound.
The night was dark and deep, and it was impossible to see what was happening, but he could clearly feel that something was moving quickly in the forest.
“Quick, give me the flashlight!”
The leader who was hiding under the tree said in a low voice. He took a strong flashlight from his companion and shone it in the direction of the sound.
The scene that appeared in the light immediately gave everyone a big fright.
He saw countless insects gathered together, moving quickly on the ground in the forest, reflecting colorful glows under the light.
It was like a Black Sea that was constantly moving. The ground that was covered with weeds was completely covered as the swarm moved forward.
After the grass fell to the ground, it withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was obvious that the body fluids of these poisonous insects were highly corrosive.
The corpses in the forest were covered, and it didn’t take long for them to be gnawed into rags.
Spider, Scorpion, centipede
All kinds of insects gathered together, but they didn’t kill each other. Instead, they rushed straight to the center of the valley.
Among these poisonous insects, there were many huge insects with bright colors, as if they were the Kings of the insects.
After feeling the strong light, the poisonous insects immediately let out a buzzing sound as if they were stimulated.
Some of the poisonous insects were attracted by the light and began to slowly turn around, crawling toward the middle-aged cultivator and the others.
turn off the flashlight! If you continue like this, you’ll kill everyone!
The middle-aged cultivator shouted in a low voice. The moment he saw the poisonous insects, he immediately realized the hidden danger and quickly turned off the flashlight.
These multicolored giant poisonous insects were no less than those meticulously refined Gu Kings. If one was bitten by them, not even a God could save them.
After hearing the middle-aged cultivator’s words, the leader quickly turned off the flashlight, but he was secretly worried that the poisonous insects would really crawl over.
They could block the long-haired monsters with their weapons, but they had no way to defend themselves against the poisonous insects.
In the end, they would end up like those corpses, gnawed until only bones were left.
