Volume 19 Chapter 216 Specimen Collection
"Is there anyone leveling up in this kind of place?"
Looking at the light that kept flashing in front of me, I walked over there with my demon pets in confusion. However, for safety, I still ordered them to slow down.
As we keep getting closer, the explosions have become clearer and clearer. Now it is not just the explosions, but occasionally you can hear a rustling sound that seems to be the sound of two grinding wheels rubbing against each other. In addition to this strange metal sound, the sound is mixed with the sound of weapons colliding and the shouts of several people, which sounds like several people fighting.
After turning over a dense bushes ahead, I immediately saw the battlefield.
There is a small open space in front, but it is not formed naturally. Looking at the broken branches and leaves underground and the various nearby plants, it is obvious that this open space was just opened up, and it seems that it was not intentionally opened up.
There are two forces fighting in the open space. If those bugs can be considered as one force, there are five people on one side of the human side and three corpses, which means that three of them have died. Among the five people who are still fighting, there are two warriors, a mage, an assassin and a guy who can't figure out what profession. The reason why I can't figure out the profession is mainly because he is wearing a magic robe, but he is holding a bow and shooting arrows everywhere. To be honest, I have seen many archers wearing warrior armor, but this is the first time I have seen archers wearing mage robes. You know, even the magic archers are not wearing mage robes, and it is indeed a bit strange that this guy actually wears a robe. In addition to the five people who are still fighting, there are one knight, a mage and a relatively normal archer lying on the ground.
The enemy of these five people is fighting them with a group of bugs. This is a bug that is bigger than a golden retriever. The whole shape is similar to a locust, but the whole body is covered with red and black marks. What is more scary is that the mouthparts of these guys all have pliers. Fortunately, there is a significant difference between these bugs that look like locusts, that is, their hind limbs are normal arthropods, rather than the super thick hind legs of locusts. Because this hind legs are not as thick as locust legs, this kind of bug does not have the same rushing power as locusts. Moreover, their wings are also useless and cannot fly at all. They can only rely on flapping their wings to increase the assault speed instantly.
Although they can't jump up or fly, this terrifying big bug still caused great trouble to these people. First, the huge mouthparts of these guys are amazing, but the main reason is that their number is so scary. Just by looking at it, you can easily find a thick layer of insect corpses on the ground, and the nearby trees are still full of these bugs on the ground, with so many that they can't count them.
"Do we want to help?" Ling suddenly ran out of the training space and appeared beside me and asked.
I thought about it and said, "Forget it. I'm not an acquaintance anyway."
After hearing my words, Ling suddenly laughed in a prank and said, "But what should I do? There are requirements for catching twenty-two such bugs in the mission."
My face was not blushing, and my heart was not beating, and I took Yongheng out and said, "Didn't you say it earlier?"
"Wait a minute." He grabbed me who was about to rush out, and Ling reminded: "The mission said that there were two male insects in the 20th place and two insect queens."
"Male insect? Queen of insects? How do you divide this thing into male and female?"
"What you see is all males. The social structure of this kind of insect is similar to that of bees. Ninety-nine percent of the population are females, but only a few of them can develop completely into insects, and the others are military insects that do not have the ability to reproduce. As for the male insects, they are bodyguards behind the insects, and they will only be dispatched when the insects are attacked or enemies that need to be attacked and are more difficult to deal with."
"You mean the male and the rear worm are both very large?"
"That's right. The male insect is about ten times the size of the female insect, and the rear of the insect is slightly smaller than that of the male insect, but it has a very large genital sac, so it looks larger than the male insect and should be easy to recognize."
After listening to Ling's introduction, I nodded directly and said, "I understand. I will leave it to me later. I hope there are two queens in this insect group."
"Don't worry about this. According to the introduction on the scroll, if you accidentally kill one or two of them, it will be enough for us to complete the task."
"Then there is no problem. Everyone rush with me!" As I said that, I turned Yongheng directly into two swords, grabbing them one by one, and rushed out directly.
The two sides of the warring parties found that the individual suddenly rushed out of the side and the reactions were different. The players were stunned, but the bugs did not react. The daze was a manifestation of the wisdom of advanced creatures, and the low-level bugs were stunned. However, in this state, the obvious low intelligence point was more advantageous. At least those players were fussed because of a sudden stop, while the bugs took a big advantage. However, their good luck ended here.
After rushing out from the corner, I directly crashed into the swarm of insects, and my left and right hands started working at the same time, slashing horizontally and vertically. All the insects I touched were instantly lit into a purple-black torch, and then screamed and gathered into a ball in the flames and eventually became a pile of black and gray. The Eternal Sword is not only sharp, but the Hell Blade Flame attached to it also has a strong corrosion and burning effect. It may not be very powerful against high-level creatures, but it is really like chopping melons and vegetables when dealing with these low-level insects.
The five people there were a little nervous when they saw it suddenly running out, afraid that I would be here to make trouble, but I didn't expect that I rushed into the pile of insects, and then I saw the nearby insects being cut and ignited in pieces.
I was killing here, and suddenly another black shadow fell from the sky and hit the pile of insects. The king waved horizontally with the long sword of the black hellfire that was also burning in his hand. A large number of insects were ignited in an instant, and even the insects that were too close were taken together, and they were all burned to black ashes.
After the king joined, a lightning flashed, and a golden ball of light suddenly appeared in the swarm after a lightning bolt. After the insects reacted, the insects near the ball suddenly turned over, and then their legs and feet were cramped and trembled violently. Finally, the blue smoke with a pungent smell came out and completely stopped moving. Before the insects died, the thunder turned into a lightning bolt and disappeared in place. Then, the next place where he appeared, a large number of insects were immediately turned over by lightning.
In fact, compared to us, the real one is Iphrit. I have said that it is best to deal with insects and flames. As soon as Iphrit appears, he immediately turned his hands into flamethrowers. Flames several meters long sprayed everywhere in the dense forest. All the insects that were stained squeaked and were burned into pieces of black charcoal.
After I took the two swords and cut over a bunch of insects in the swarm, I suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind me, and I quickly turned around and drove the two swords. With a sound, a sickle-shaped foot was directly stuck in the gap formed by the crossing of the eternal two swords. As my wrist moved, the knife foot was cut off with a crack.
Scream... With a strange scream, the bug with broken legs immediately stabbed another jump leg. I hurriedly retreated, then swung my hands and a sword light out. The giant insect in front, which was much bigger than the other insects, was instantly divided into two. After the corpse fell to the ground, it still died. It took me a long time to jump there before I stopped completely.
"Damn, why did such a big one appear?"
"This is the male insect." Ling's voice reminded him during the spiritual contact.
"Male insect? Oh no, this one has been sliced and cannot be used! Damn it, it was all these little insects that were wasted a male insect. While the male insects have not appeared together yet, Xiaofeng hurried out to help me clear the field!"
A space door suddenly appeared above my head. Xiaofeng drilled out directly from it, then pressed his hands down, and shouted: "Everyone stand firm, I'm going to use my ultimate move. The earth fire spreads around." With a bang, a ring-shaped flame spreads to the surroundings with Xiaofeng and me as the center. The insects I encountered along the way were burned into empty shells almost instantly. Then, after the flame ring passed, the black shell began to collapse and collapse into a pile of black powder. Of course, the insects were burned away and the surrounding plants did not run away. Although the humid environment of the Valley of Insects seriously limited the power of flame magic,
That is mainly because it reduces the damage range, and the power in the center of the skill has not dropped much. Under normal circumstances, even if Xiao Feng's move is not fully launched, it is definitely no problem to burn all the things that can be burned within a radius of 500 meters to ashes. Now in this humid tropical rainforest environment, the flame ring burns less than 500 meters, and it is still no big problem to burn all the things that have within a radius of 200 meters. Of course, those players were automatically ignored by Xiao Feng as their own target. This move of Earth Fire Rain is not a spell that does not distinguish between us and others. You can actively set attack targets and targets that need to be ignored.
The people over there were very happy to see us killing insects, thinking they were saved. Who knew that Xiaofeng suddenly threw a large-scale flame magic on the ground, and when the terrifying fire wall was pressing towards him, the people thought they were dead. Of course, although they thought they were dead, they could still let them protect their faces with their hands. However, after waiting for a long time, except for feeling a wave of heat passing by, the few people did not get a warning for death. After opening their eyes in confusion, they found that the flames had actually bypassed them, and the flood-like insects around had all turned into black charcoal that was still rippling with Mars, and the trees and so on were burning. Even the fog that had not dissipated was cleared out by the flames into a large blank area.
"So strong!" After seeing the results around him, the mage among the few people couldn't help but sigh. Among the people present, he was the one who played magic, so he knew best how powerful the magic flame was. He could burn all such a large area in an instant, and the opponent's skills were at least level A or above. Anyway, he felt that the A-level skills in the system magic academy were not as powerful as this move.
The few people who survived the disaster were about to come over to say hello to us, but we suddenly turned collectively and rushed towards the direction where the group of insects came.
I didn't say hello to these people because I wanted to be handsome, but because I saw a large group of male insects outside the area where the flames burned. Through the gap between these male insects, I even vaguely saw several insects with big tails behind them.
"Haha, Xiaofeng, your distance control is too accurate. Come over quickly and be careful not to kill me, I want to live!"
The bugs basically have no intelligence at all. Of course, some advanced demon insects can evolve intelligence, but these are obviously not. Seeing us rushing over, the bugs did not escape, but took the initiative to greet them.
After Xiaofeng put out her skills, she immediately returned to the training space. Anyway, her skills are not suitable for surviving, so she can't help even if she is outside. However, Xiaofeng can't help, and there are a few people in the training space that can help.
"Cipoise, sickle, tank, red thorn, frost and snow, come out to help."
With the emergence of frost and snow, the hot air around it that had been burned suddenly cooled down. Then, with a light wave forward as the frost and snow seemed to dance, the nearby ground was instantly covered by a layer of white frost, and the mist that had gradually recovered in the air disappeared completely due to the extreme freezing.
Although the most feared thing about insects is fire, it is not the environment they like. Although the ultra-low temperature environment does not freeze these demon insects to death, it is still okay to slow down their speed by half a beat. If you pay attention, you will find that some insects can actually survive in winter, but their reaction ability will become very slow. For example, in the relatively warm Jiangnan region, you can also see flies and certain flying insects in winter, but at this time they will become extremely dull and can be easily caught with your hands. Although the demon insects are a branch of the demon beast, to put it bluntly, they are still bugs. The low temperature will not cause these enhanced bugs to die directly, but it is definitely no problem to slow them down.
Looking at the bugs that were significantly slower, my other magic pets immediately moved. The thunder, who were originally outside, were responsible for killing the little bugs that had not been burned, to clear the passage for us. Even the Rose Vine and the Trail Blazers emerged from the ground from time to time to help kill some bugs.
The people I just summoned are members of the complex bug capture. Among them, the sickle is the most important one, because his spider silk is the best binding tool. It would be a pity to not let the sickle help you catch live bugs. Chili is an auxiliary staff, and her mind power can assist in controlling bugs and reducing the difficulty of grabbing and remediation. As for tanks and red thorns, they are mainly responsible for catching bugs. These two are insect monsters themselves, and the most important thing is that they are large enough and have strong defenses. Even if the bugs resist, they will basically not be able to hurt them.
After the air conditioning was dispersed, frost and snow immediately added control of the insects. Her method of help was relatively simple, which was to use frozen rays to freeze the legs and wings of the insects. Unlike those females that were not fully developed, although males did not have the thighs like locusts that could help jump, these guys had two more things than females. First, their wings were not arranged, but could really fly. Second, the forelimbs of males were not as short as females, and they could only assist in eating. Their forelimbs were huge like two sickles. Although they were not like the mantis's knife feet and had serrated feet, these guys' forelimbs were sharp as awls. Because of these two special configurations, the most popular way of attack was to use their wings to assist in acceleration and suddenly rushed to the enemy and poked the enemy with their sharp forelimbs.
However, their skills are destined to be useless today. The charging male insects were halfway through the flight and were frozen by the frozen rays. The remaining part was affected by the pepper's mind power and fell down one after another. Although they were not injured, they staggered the attack time.
The only small wave of male insects finally rushed near us and first hit the tank's body. When they excitedly poked their sharp sword feet at the tank's body, what came was not the puff sound of the sword feet piercing through the enemy, but a metal collision sound. The tank's defense must be caught blindly even if the dragon touched it, let alone a few small insects. Their sword feet pierced ordinary things, but when they hit the tank, it was basically equivalent to trying to use wheat straw to penetrate the bulletproof glass.
After trying hard for a long time, the male insects began to plan to change positions and try, but the tanks would not let them try slowly there. He directly knocked the bugs on the hammer on his forelimbs that were only small to him. Although he had paid attention to controlling his strength, the bugs were immediately smashed into the ground. However, the shells of these guys were still quite solid. Except for one unlucky guy who happened to have a stone underneath that was hammered into a cake, the other bugs were just knocked out.
Seeing that the sickle succeeded, he immediately ran over and pulled out the insects one by one and tied them with silk thread like rice dumplings, leaving only the breathing holes in their abdomen for them to breathe. There were no gaps in other places.
Seeing that the tank and sickle were cooperating, the Red Thorn would not bother the sickle to help tie the bugs. He directly clamped the male insects in front of him one by one with his two big pliers, and then gently stabbed the tail needle, and the insect Lima became quiet. As a Gu insect, the tail needle of the Red Thorn can adjust the type of toxin. Now he is using pure anesthesia needles, and the effect is quite good. As for the counterattack of other insects... Although the Red Thorn is not as high as a tank, he is placing a size there. With such a large size, the carapace is naturally super thick. Just because these male insects of no more than four hundred levels want to hurt him unless a miracle comes.
Just during this short while the group of people on the opposite side were in a daze, we had already finished cooking all the male insects. As a result, because everyone started separately, there was no counting the number. When we remembered, the sickle had tied up more than 40 silk cocoons.
"Damn. Enough is enough, don't catch it. There are only twenty male insects, kill all the rest. Hurry up and rush forward, there are still two insects behind!"
Hearing my words, the demon pets immediately knocked the excess male insects to death and followed me all the way toward the rear of the insects, leaving only five rescued people in a daze. These people have not yet fully figured out what happened.
