Maybe it had rained last night, maybe it was because we were closer to the swamp, and the mist that had gathered was drifting towards the cave.

There is a large smooth and vertical stone wall on the right side of the cave, which is connected to the soil slope on the left to make the entrance of the cave look like an arch.

The plain snakes are more sensitive to the humidity in the air, and they raised their heads one after another and stretched out their snake letters. For a while, a series of 'hissing' sounds came from the cave.

The water mist gradually disappeared after 30 meters into the cave. Jaya stood up and patted the dirt on his hands: "There are about 30 first-level plain snakes guarding the entrance 10 meters away, and there are about 20 second-level snakes and 15 first-level snakes at 25 meters. There are 9 nests of snake eggs at nearly 30 meters, with 6-8 snake eggs in each nest. The reason why the hole narrowed later is unknown, and no level 3 snake cubs have been detected so far.”

Yang Yuexin looked at Xu Wenzhi: "I will wrap you with the wood system to harvest. Yuli will collect the snake sloughs first, and we will finish the big pot quickly."

"Okay!" Xu Wenzhi nodded, took out the energy sword and opened it, the blue blade glowing coldly.

Zhao Yuli patted her chest and promised: "Leave it to me, I brought a 100 cubic space ring specially!"

In order to do the task, I watched horror movies and disaster movies for a week at night!

I haven’t had dinner for several days!

Yang Yuexin walked to five meters away from the cave entrance and squatted down, "Dragnet!"

The thin vines spread flexibly like snakes throughout the cave in search of living creatures, and once they encounter them, they will tangle and become entangled.

Xu Wenzhi and Jia Yao followed the vines with swords, picking out the snake heads first and cutting them off, while Zhao Yuli followed at the back to collect them.

The baby snakes, which were no more than 20 centimeters long, were scurrying around, and a few unlucky ones were stepped on from time to time.

Xu Wenzhi and a few others acted for the first time, but they cooperated well. In ten minutes, Zhao Yuli even collected the snake eggs.

The thin vines broke into piles, and the young snakes that had no time to escape got in to hide themselves.

Yang Yuexin looked at the dark cave within a cave, which was about three meters in diameter.

Xu Wenzhi surveyed and said: "It is a natural cave that no one has set foot in." There is a hint of water in the gentle slope, and there is a cold atmosphere.

The three of them looked at Yang Yuexin in unison.

Yang Yuexin watched as a ray of spiritual power emerged from the entrance of the cave, followed the gentle slope to a flat spot, and then the height became lower and lower, less than 2 meters, and continued to go deeper than 100 meters as the water flow continued.

After turning a corner and walking straight for a few minutes, the space suddenly became larger. There was a pool of sparkling but bottomless water, and the stars on the roof of the cave seemed to be in the universe.

Yang Yuexin tried to get closer, but suddenly felt palpitations. She retracted her mental strength and pulled Zhao Yulijiaya to remind them that Xu Wenzhi had realized that something was wrong and turned on the 3D thermal imaging of the glasses.

"Run! Don't use your mental power!"

Good guy, when will there be intermediate fireflies in the periphery?

However, it is a small bug that is 3 to 5 centimeters in size. It likes to eat mental energy and can easily crush C-grade metal with its mouthparts. Its tail is flashing with a charming fluorescent blue.

The insects that were taking a nap were awakened and flew towards the cave entrance in twos and threes.

The light and shadow dimmed, and several people were dodging left and right in the dark forest, with rustling sounds coming from behind.

Avoiding the sudden attacks of snakes, insects, rats, and ants, they broke wood and debris, and did not stop until they were near the swamp.

"Huhu~Xin, what happened to Xinxin?"

"That's it!" Xu Wenzhi took a deep breath and calmed his heartbeat before showing the picture, "Firefly, a level 5 alien beast. It is omnivorous but likes mental power. Its mouthparts can easily crush C-level metal. It is weak alone and likes to attack in groups. greedy."

Jia Ya sat on the ground and finally calmed down. When he heard this, he jumped up again and said, "Ah! What should I do?"

"The sky is getting dark, I'm afraid there will be heavy rain later." Jaya is sensitive to changes in water vapor, and the fog near the swamp is extremely quiet.

Xu Wenzhi's glasses can detect a radius of 500 meters, and there are less than 300 large and small red dots in the field of vision, half of which are at level one.

"Warning! There are high-risk animals under the swamp. Please evacuate as soon as possible if you are 800 meters away!"

"Warning! There are high-risk animals under the swamp. Please evacuate as soon as possible if you are 800 meters away!"

Xu Wenzhi saw the pop-up message in the upper right corner and immediately said: "There is a level 7 alien beast coming to us in the swamp!"

"What!"

"What!"

Zhao Yuli Jaya looked shocked.

Yang Yuexin was about to contact Chi Chunting and they to retreat, but she didn't expect Chi Chunting to call first.

"Tide of beasts! Run! Ah..."

"Ah Ting..."

Yang Yuexin only had time to hear Jia Yao's exclamation before the call was interrupted.

Xu Wenzhi heard this and was very worried about Zhu Ruilu and Meng Shaochen, "It's not a good time to stay here for a long time and leave quickly!"

"Woo~"

A low humming sound sounded.

The situation was urgent. Yang Yuexin recalled the map in her mind and found a route: "Go to Qingcheng Ring Road!"

The three of them followed Yang Yuexin and turned around and ran directly to the nearest entrance to the Qingcheng Ring Road. Once you enter the ring road, you may encounter pedestrians or patrols. Even worse, there are shared flying skateboards or public hover cars.

After just five minutes of rest, they started running again. Several people were so nervous that they didn't dare to use their mental power even though they had it.

As he ran, Jaya took out a small blue ball and held it in his hand: "Water, water..."

"Water... Somuhu..."

I tried several times but couldn't pronounce the complete spell.

The power crystallized in the water beast varies according to its strength. The one in Jaya's hand is a primary crystal stone.

Yang Yuexin took a few glances and couldn't help but fall two steps behind to pass the crystal stone.

boom! Wow!

The sound of the giant beast breaking through the water was mixed with the sound of the trees falling down.

"Woo~"

A wave of salty, wet and fishy-smelling air chased after them, and several people took the opportunity to rush out a few hundred meters by the wind.

Yang Yuexin was holding the crystal stone and was about to use Water Mist Surge, when dots of blue fluorescence appeared in front of her.

Fireflies!

Xu Wenzhi gritted his teeth and sped up: "Crash out before their main force comes!"

Xu Wenzhi took a look at the crystal energy in his glasses which was still half full, drew out his energy-gathering gun and fired three shots forward.

Bang bang bang!

In the blink of an eye, three energy balls exploded in a triangular shape, and the aftermath overlapped to form a vacuum circle.

Yang Yuexin held the crystal stone and took the opportunity to cast magic: "Water mist surges!"

Several balls of water mist formed into 1-meter-sized water balls and attached to the lower bodies of several people, reducing friction and gravity, and the speed immediately increased.

Seeing that there was still 1 kilometer away from the entrance of the ring road, a giant wolf fell from the sky and fell on the path that everyone must pass.

It is about 5 meters from the tip of the nose to the tail and three meters high, just enough to block the road.

Several people braked suddenly and almost hit him.

Taking a closer look, he saw a wound on his chest, but it was frozen to prevent bleeding. The hair was clean and it was obvious that he had been killed by a single blow.

Zhao Yuli had an idea and put the wolf directly into the space ring.

Yang Yuexin couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Great job!"

Bang bang bang! Xu Wenzhi turned around and fired three shots. After the explosion, a few rays of blue light seemed to be floating, but in fact they flew towards him very quickly like several people.

The small eyes were full of greed, and the mouthparts rubbed together and made a squeaking sound.
