Seeing this, Zhu Jue hurriedly got off his mount and came to the edge of the stone seam. He first pulled "Zorro" who was carrying the golden egg away, and then stuck his head out to take a look.
Immediately, he was also startled!
The rope bridge that was originally supposed to be disconnected brought the extra-large Destroyer that fell into the abyss of the stone crevice and was now firmly clinging to the cliff on the side of the stone crevice close to Zhu Jue and the others.
As for how it climbed up the stone wall, the wings that have not been fully retracted under the thick carapace can probably be explained!
In this world, beetles such as the bifurcated rhinoceros beetle and the stag beetle generally have no wings. Their carapace is one piece and has a structure similar to a turtle shell. Maybe it's because in this world where there are only insects, beetles can stay safe with their thick armor, so they don't need to fly. So when Zhu Jue first saw this extra-large destroyer that looked like a giant beetle, he had his mind set and never thought that it could fly.
Now it seems that the thick carapace of this Destroyer can be separated to the left and right, and a pair of transparent membrane wings are hidden underneath. The size of the wings is a bit disproportionate to the huge body, so it is estimated that the flying ability will not be too strong.
No wonder this extra-large destroyer didn't fly up directly in one go. It just controlled its body and landed on the cliff. It was retracting its wings at this time, obviously preparing to climb up with strong force.
Zhu Jue saw that this extra-large destroyer was about to climb up, so he couldn't let it up so easily. Otherwise, with the strength of the tired Fly Tiger Knight and the support team of worker ants with little combat effectiveness, it would be difficult to get rid of this extremely fast and powerful destroyer. Escape from the jaws of an oversized Destroyer with near-invincible defenses.
After receiving Zhu Jue's order, the fly tiger knights and worker ants hurriedly dismounted or gathered directly, using all the weapons they could find around them to smash down to prevent the extra large destroyer from climbing up.
Gravel, stones, and fire bombs all fell down one after another, but when they hit the dark head and shield-like back of the extra-large Destroyer, they only made a sound.
Only the fire bombs are slightly lethal, but the airflow in the stone crevices is strong and changeable. These fire bombs are swaying and inaccurate as they fall, making it difficult to hit such a large target. The Fly Tiger Knights didn't have many fire bombs left, and none of the last five they threw hit...
Zhu Jue also personally participated in the battle. For the first time in this period, he used the power of "gods from heaven" to pick up a stone the size of a purple-leaf plum fruit from the side. He lifted it like a giant god lifting a mountain. Throw it down.
Zhu Jue's aim was accurate, and the airflow had limited interference with the stone of this size. The nearly round boulder bounced from time to time on the cliff tilted at about 80 degrees, quickly approaching the extra large Destroyer. But just when Zhu Jue saw that the boulder was about to hit the Destroyer, the boulder was stopped by a raised cliff, quickly changed its trajectory, bounced over the head of the lucky Destroyer, and fell directly into the ground. In the dark mist!
Zhu Jue was speechless. He missed a single hit. He looked around and saw that there were no stones of suitable size nearby. There were only some small stones that could not harm the extra-large Destroyer...and the big stones were too far away to carry him. It's too late to stop the oversized Destroyer from climbing up!
Zhu Jue turned around and went back, holding the long wooden stick stained with the blood and residual flesh of other destroyers, and prepared to use the "power splitting Huashan" move on this extra-large destroyer the moment it showed up. This was his best move. The right time to take action! But Zhu Jue didn't know whether this wooden stick could break the head of the extra-large Destroyer, so he could only try his best!
Zhu Jue continued to stick out his head and stared at the body of the extra large destroyer, estimating the time it would take to climb up, and was ready to carry out a fatal blow at any time!
"18, 17, 16...9, 8..."
Zhu Jue held the long stick in his hand and was full of confidence. The tarsal feet of his pair of forelimbs had already firmly hooked the stick, and he was counting down the timing to take action based on the speed of the target!
Seeing that he had reached "8" everywhere, and the time to take action was about to come, Zhu Jue's eyes narrowed, and a sudden change occurred!
I saw at the bottom of the stone crevices and in the abyss of ten thousand feet, the originally calm darkness suddenly stirred, as if the mist was suddenly flowing, as if something was about to break through!
The extra-large Destroyer didn't notice the changes behind it at all, and it didn't care about some slight changes in the air flow. The air flow in this stone crevice was unpredictable and had no reference significance.
Only when Zhu Jue put his head forward and faced the darkness at the bottom of the stone crevice could he see clearly from the changes in light and shadow!
Just when he was puzzled, suddenly! A long black shadow broke through the black fog at the bottom of the stone crevice. In an instant, it reached a length of more than one meter, extending directly from the black fog layer to the location of the extra-large Destroyer!
Only then did the extra-large Destroyer's tentacles become noticeable. The Destroyer's climbing speed suddenly stopped, and its head, which was small compared to its body, turned slightly, as if to confirm the movement below.
But it was too late. It was picked up by the "black shadow". The six limbs of the strong and powerful extra-large destroyer that were firmly hooked on the rock wall were dragged up without any resistance and escaped from the cliff. The wall was quickly pulled towards the black mist at the bottom of the stone crevice!
And on the cliff, there are still three jointed limbs of the extra-large Destroyer hooked on the stone. The broken parts are dripping with blood. This Destroyer was unexpectedly pulled off three legs... The Extra-large Destroyer is indeed very strong. It's big, but even it can't stop the power of that shadow!
Within a split second, the figure of the extra-large Destroyer had disappeared, leaving only the violent and chaotic airflow and the swirling black mist flowing like water, proving that what Zhu Jue just saw was true!
Although the threat of the extra-large Destroyer has been lifted, some mysterious existence at the bottom of the stone crevice seems to have no intention of climbing out. But after Zhu Jue saw it, he became devastated.
"Zorro" saw something was wrong and pulled Zhu Jue back to his mount. Only then did Zhu Jue regain his composure, sucked another honeydew bead to calm himself, and then led the team that successfully rescued the golden eggs back to the starting lair!
This operation to rescue the golden eggs was a success without any danger. Only 17 fly-tiger knights were lost along the way, which was much better than the battle losses Zhu Jue had expected.
But Zhu Jue's mood at this time was far from happy, and he was more surprised than happy.
Not only because the Destroyer has evolved in ways that he didn't know before, such as a Destroyer that shoots threads, a Destroyer that sprays acid, and a Destroyer that's as invincible as a giant turtle! In the future, the coalition of civilized ants and the Angel King’s Army will have a much harder time winning the war against these destroyers!
Zhu Jue was in a trance at this time. The bigger reason was the long black shadow emerging from the depth of the stone crack he just saw!
This black shadow does not look like a snake or a centipede!
It looks more like...a...human arm...! ! ! ? ? ?
