As if by magic, the sounds of distant fighting began to fade. Several small insects lay on the mother's body and drilled their jaws deeply into it.
The canyon was filled with waves of fragrance, a sweet scent with a hint of drowsiness, like the crackle in the air before a storm.
"Although it feels a bit weird, I have to say that it was well done, so that our army can continue to advance smoothly." Nero patted Lin Yun on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Yeah, if you're not careful, one of us might end up dead." The corners of Hunyuan's mouth twitched slightly.
Because of confusion, besides doing nothing and hitting yourself, there is another possibility, which is to attack any creature around you, including teammates.
In fact, there is a saying. Once Lin Yun is confused, then he will do this.
When the time came, a sword struck Nero's body, and most of Nero's blood was probably gone.
And if it were anyone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be killed with one blow.
The damage caused by the super giant sword is no joke.
"Speaking of which, I was thinking about a question. If I remember correctly, bugs generally rely on pheromones to find targets. What do you think, if we throw the pheromones from this bug mother to the other side of Juanze City? ." Jingtian touched his chin and then said.
"This is indeed a good question. Even if these bugs are demons, they will devour them completely. It would be really good if we throw these bugs over and let them fight to death with those demons." Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he said .
"But... But in that case, the person carrying these liquids will be in danger. If he is not careful, that person may be swallowed up directly. This... this is too cruel." Xiao Jin flinched. Talking.
Just looking at her, she looked more hopeful that Lin Yun would change his mind.
"Yes, and in this case, accidental damage will be more troublesome. To be honest, compared to demons, I think these bugs are more troublesome. At least it is troublesome for ordinary soldiers to deal with them, because at least those demons, the soldiers are also experienced, but It's hard to tell about these bugs." Nero frowned.
"But if you don't care about these bugs, letting them fly around will also pose a huge threat to the creatures around here. If you are not careful, these bugs will become a permanent problem here. It is better to take advantage of this opportunity. Consume part of the number of bugs." Leon on the other side also said.
"Speaking of this, well, we really should bring Nie Niu here with us, but considering that some insects may be able to become new insect queens by devouring their mother's body, so just leave part of this thing behind. ." Lin Yun said with a slight frown.
"It seems that you, Commander, are ready to make good use of these bugs' offensive. Haha, what a magical plan. I like it." Dailan laughed and clapped, but she didn't know whether she was really happy or not.
"I can't say. Anyway, I'll let Alafashnai and Nie Niu study this issue first, and then we'll see if we can implement it." Lin Yun shook his head slightly and scratched his hair.
"Wait, Dante, something is wrong here?" At this moment, Jingtian suddenly said.
As always, after the battle, this guy devoted himself to searching for trophies, although he was actually not sure that these bugs had the idea of collecting trophies.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yun turned his head and looked over.
"When I was looking for trophies, I found this passage with obvious signs of crawling. It seems that the insect mother crawled out from here before it became what it is now. And the most important thing is that there is protein in it. Burnt, oh, I mean the breath of the abyss." Sedum pointed to a narrow-looking crack deep in the cave to the south.
Because this crack is probably very narrow, and it is covered by the surrounding secretions, it is impossible to see it clearly.
Obviously, before the insect mother evolved into what it is now, it was not that fat. After all, this crack could barely allow a medium-sized creature to enter.
"Speaking of which, Alafashnai once said that this is an abyssal bug. Is it possible that those bugs came here through this crack, and maybe there is an abyss behind that crack?" Lin Yun Weiwei He raised his eyebrows and said.
"It's possible, so it's not enough for us to just kill the mother bug and dispose of its body. According to the way bugs evolve, if there is a group of bugs on the opposite side, and then when that batch of bugs comes over, they will evolve. When the insect mother matures, this place will still become the territory of the insect." Sedum said seriously.
"Well, the troubles have increased again." Lin Yun sighed, and then used the Giant Transformation Wand to cancel the Giant Transformation spell on himself and Nero. "It looks like we need to hurry up. Maybe there is someone waiting for us on the other side."
Unexpectedly, with all the status at full strength, the insect mother might not be the last enemy, which made Lin Yun feel a little bit pained.
"I'll go in first." Saya, who had recovered from confusion for a long time, looked the same. As long as I didn't say anything, they wouldn't have discovered that I hadn't maintained my transformation just now. Hero points +8 are all Will saves. The embarrassment of failure.
She transformed into a mud monster again, and then got in along the crack.
Although it is a very large creature, the mud monster's amorphous body is really easy to use, and it slips into the cracks very smoothly.
Then he ran back quickly.
"There is a cave on the other side, but it looks a bit weird." Saya used the body of the mud monster to show these words.
"Are there no other creatures on the other side?" Lin Yun asked in surprise.
The reason why the plague bird was not allowed to enter was because if the opponent had a spell such as seeing through invisibility, the plague bird would be killed accidentally.
That would be a bit of a waste.
Demon pets are also living creatures and can be killed.
He thought there was a demon or something like that on the opposite side, but he didn't expect that there was something else going on.
"No." Saya shook the thing that might be his head slightly.
"By the way, I'll leave this insect mother's body to you." Lin Yun pointed to the insect mother's body on the ground.
After all, the insect mother has flame resistance. If it is burned with flames, some fish may slip through the net.
It's better to leave it to nature's scavengers and mud monsters.
As it happens, Saya doesn't seem to care about these rich proteins at all.
Saya nodded slightly, then moved over.
Before Saya came back, Lin Yun had already removed the insect mother's head, which should be enough for extracting pheromones or for research.
Wrap the head slightly and throw it directly into Sedum's space bag, which is convenient and simple.
"Then let's go in first." Lin Yun looked at the crack, then turned to look at the plague bird, "You can come too."
"Of course." cried the plague bird.
Just like that, Lin Yun and the others walked in through the crack.
Lin Yun just walked in and discovered another problem.
That is, "Do you feel that this crack... seems to have been repaired." Lin Yun frowned slightly and said.
"D20+10=26, Perception check successful."
Under the effect of dark vision, Lin Yun noticed that some corners of the crack seemed a little unnatural and had traces of being repaired.
Write a book
"Indeed, I am very familiar with this mark. It is the mark of the shovel." Bao'er squatted on the ground and touched the mark on it.
"It seems that there are still cultists ahead." Lin Yun frowned slightly.
"Yeah." Nero twisted his neck, "Just so I feel a little uncomfortable."
The length of the crack is about 6 meters. Although it is a bit long, it is okay.
Walking out of the crack, you can see that this place is completely a complete cave. There are no vents around, and the sunlight cannot shine through at all. It looks very dark.
"Mr. Dante, do you need me to light the ball of sunshine?" Xiao Jin looked at Lin Yun.
As an elf, Ember naturally has dark vision, but she is more concerned about other people who don't have dark vision.
"Light it up, but you, Leon, Sedum, and Bao'er will stay a little further back." Lin Yun said.
Because when light appears in the dark, normal creatures will immediately focus on the light, but ignore the existence in the dark. It's an old trick.
"Okay, no problem." Xiao Jin nodded, and then used her last third-level spell slot today to release the ball of sunshine.
Along the passage, Lin Yun and the others continued to move forward, and then a slight, but very familiar buzzing sound came.
No doubt a swarm of those bugs.
Sure enough, there are still some remnants here. If Lin Yun and the others are careless and leave here, they may be in more trouble soon.
However, when they turned a corner, Lin Yun and the others discovered that there was only a bunch of bugs, and they seemed to be surrounding one. . . . . The clothes were somewhat tattered and looked like they were more bandits than cultists.
"If there's only one ball, I'll do it." Lin Yun said directly.
"Silver Refining Wave." He started with a sword and swayed it. Sorry, the group-destroying button can really do whatever he wants.
"D20+8+9+2-3+5+1=40, heavy hit."
"D20+8+9+2-3+5+1=23, confirmed critical hit."
"6D6+6D6+12+2+13=72."
What's going on today?
It's a pity that swarm creatures cannot be hit hard, Can Nian.
As always, the sword light was swung over, and then spread out under the power of the swarm-killing button, like an insecticide, shooting all the bugs to the ground.
"Okay, let's go." Lin Yun stepped forward and looked at this person. Seeing that it was covered with mucus and minced meat, Lin Yun quickly shouted to Sedum behind him, "Professionals, come here check."
