Chapter Ninety-Four: Man-Eating Insects
The sun in the sky is very large, and the sun shines directly on the sand without a trace of vegetation, like a big furnace, and even in the distance, you can clearly see the churning heat wave.
If someone who is a water attribute or a wood attribute comes over, he will be sunburned here if he is a little weak.
"It's hot. Gu Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself.
Now he's only just walked in a short distance, and he feels so hot that he really doesn't know what will happen if he goes deeper.
"It's too late to go back now. Yue Lao quipped, and now you can still see the place where you started, and you can return at any time.
"What a joke. Gu Fan didn't stop and continued to walk, but the slippery sand made the soles of his feet useless.
"Haha. Yue Lao laughed, he didn't really mean to let Gu Fan go back, but to provoke him, so that it would be easier to persevere.
However, Yue Lao's move can be regarded as a superfluous move, no matter how bad the environment is, Gu Fan will bite the bill and go to the deepest part.
Although the temperature is very high now, there is still good news, there is no wind, otherwise once the wind blows, the wind and sand in the sky are enough to make Gu Fan lose his way.
And the pillar of light in the distance is getting darker and darker, as if it will disappear in a few days.
Therefore, once the pillar of light really disappears, and you lose your way due to the wind and sand, I am afraid that the difficulty will increase several times.
"Damn!" Gu Fan scolded secretly, he had prepared everything, but he didn't prepare a good pair of shoes.
As long as he accidentally fell into the sand a little bit, the sand would get into his shoes, making him very uncomfortable.
Fire Armor!
A moment later, a pair of shoes made of flames appeared on Gu Fan's feet, although there was some fuss, but they could make themselves walk a little more comfortably.
"You kid. Seeing Gu Fan's approach, Yue Lao laughed, using such a strong defensive martial art as a shoe, it is estimated that Gu Fan is capable.
For half a day, everything went well, although the weather was hot, Gu Fan's walking speed was not much slower.
"Let's go around. Gu Fan looked at the sand dunes not far in front of him and muttered to himself.
In case you don't stand firm when you go up, it's especially easy to slide down and consume your physical strength in vain.
So far, it's been quite smooth, except for the sandy terrain that is not easy to walk, and I haven't encountered large man-eating insects.
Occasionally, a few of them come out of the sand, and at most they are only a few inches long, and they can be pinched to death at will.
However, just as Gu Fan was detouring, the pillar of light in the distance had turned into a phantom, and finally disappeared completely.
"It's good to note it down in advance. Gu Fan exhaled, he had long expected that the pillar of light would disappear, and he had already thought about the general location before he went around the sand dune.
"What is this?" Gu Fan saw a stone-like thing not far away, just in the direction he was about to go.
"Probably a beast's bone. "Yue Lao's eyesight is much better than Gu Fan's, and he has already seen the appearance of the bones.
After Gu Fan slowly approached, he looked at this basin-sized bone. Kicked it with his foot, but didn't kick it far.
This bone is still relatively heavy, indicating that it has not been completely weathered not long after death.
"There may be trouble. Yue Lao said heavily, this bone was obviously left by a giant eagle or other magical beast.
"It's hard. Gu Fan pinched his eyebrows, so that the demonic beasts flying in the air could be killed, then he would only be more dangerous on the ground.
And this bone is enough to show that there is a man-eating insect that is not weak nearby.
Gu Fan glanced around and didn't find anything unusual, but under the sand, there might be a man-eating insect watching him.
Unlike most monsters, man-eating insects have no eyes and rely entirely on heat and ground vibrations to pursue their prey, which also allows them to come and go in the desert with ease.
"Do you feel it?" said the old man in a low voice, as if he had found something.
"Don't scare me. Gu Fan looked around carefully, as if there was nothing special.
"If you feel it carefully, is there a little vibration. Yue Lao's words were not like a joke, but in an extremely serious tone.
"Not really. Gu Fan felt it seriously, and there was indeed a slight vibration in the sand, and he scolded angrily in his heart, he was really afraid of something.
"Run. Gu Fan found the right direction and was ready to flee at any time.
Although his attack is extremely powerful, he is a little weak in the face of a man-eating insect that doesn't know where.
And the fire armor can't be used easily, otherwise the man-eating insect can definitely lock Gu Fan's position as soon as possible, the fire armor is composed of flames, the temperature is extremely high, and the man-eating insect is also extremely sensitive to this.
"Stand still. Yue Lao shouted loudly, running away now was definitely not the right choice.
After all, Gu Fan himself was very slow to run in the desert, and he had to worry about the danger of his feet falling into the sand, and the desert was the home of man-eating insects.
If you want to catch up with Gu Fan, I'm afraid it's only a matter of moments, so it's best to be able to fool around now.
After the man-eating insects came out of the sand, Gu Fan didn't need to be afraid anymore, those man-eating insects that mercenaries could deal with, Gu Fan could naturally deal with them easily.
Feeling the vibration of the ground, Gu Fan simply removed the fire armor on his feet, and every small detail could become a breakthrough for the sneak attack of the man-eating insects.
Then bend down slightly and tie your pants and shoes firmly to avoid sand in your shoes for a while, which will affect your performance.
Now what Gu Fan has to do is to wait for the man-eating insects to come out on their own.
Rustling~
The nearby sand gradually heaved and then slowly descended with a loud sound.
The sand is like a river, flowing on its own without any propulsion.
Puff ~ Puff ~
At this time, Gu Fan could clearly hear his heartbeat, looking at the constantly flowing sand around him, he seemed to be in the center of a whirlpool, and he might be submerged at any time.
"Right down there you. Yue Lao reminded that Gu Fan's body had risen a little with the sand just now, but it had not fallen.
Gu Fan didn't notice this detail, but fortunately there was a reminder from the old man, otherwise he wouldn't know where to defend.
Looking down at the sand under his feet, Gu Fan swallowed his saliva, his two arms were in an offensive posture, and when a single man-eating insect came out, he would attack without hesitation.
The meridians in the body are constantly running fast, ready to use fire armor at any time.
"It's calmed down. Seeing that the sand was no longer flowing, Gu Fan muttered, wondering if it was the man-eating insect that gave up and left without discovering it.
"It's not that simple. Yue Lao said cautiously, there is a lack of food in the desert, so these man-eating insects will seize every opportunity to hunt for food.
Rumble!
At the moment when Yue Lao's words landed, three man-eating insects suddenly rose into the air from three different directions, opening their bloody mouths and biting Gu Fan.
I'm afraid of your sneak attack, but I'm not afraid of your frontal attack.
"Attack the right one!" Elder Moon shouted.
"Hmph. Gu Fan sneered, and the fire armor and the Shattered Sun Trap appeared on his body in the blink of an eye, and he jumped suddenly, and the flaming fist hit the body of a man-eating insect.
Flame Fist!
Because they didn't have eyes, the man-eating insects couldn't see Gu Fan's attack, and the temperature of the flames made them even more fascinated and violent.
Just as Gu Fan's feet were off the ground, the sand suddenly sank, and a huge mouth full of fangs poked out of the ground, but it was empty.
"It's dangerous. Gu Fan glanced at it with the rest of his eyes, if it was a little later, I was afraid that he would enter the stomach of the man-eating worm.
But Gu Fan's attack did not stop because of this, and the burning fist had already hit the body of a man-eating insect hard.
"Roar!" the beaten man-eating insect slammed into the sand, squirming its nearly three-meter-long body, and some brown viscous liquid coming out of its mouth.
The other two man-eating insects also pounced and looked at Gu Fan's side on the sand.
The screams of the man-eating insects that were hit by Gu Fan just now had already made them a little vigilant, and they didn't attack rashly again.
"These man-eaters don't have a good defense. Gu Fan said with a smile, and he couldn't do it if he was punched tightly.
"Your punch may not be easy to carry down with an ordinary martial artist's peak realm, let alone this man-eating insect. Yue Lao smiled faintly: "And it looks like it has just been peeled, and there is basically no defense." ”
At the moment when the man-eating insect appeared, Yue Lao could see that the skin of this man-eating insect was weaker than the other two.
A purple flame was thrown, and the injured man-eating insect that was beaten by Gu Fan burned violently, constantly making a "zizi" sound, and the huge body of the man-eating insect also kept rolling, trying to extinguish the flames on its body.
But how could it be so simple, after a few moments, its huge body was burned to the ground with only a few sticky liquids left with a pungent smell.
"It's disgusting. Gu Fan's brows furrowed, such a smell made him a little sick to his stomach.
"Don't burn the remaining two. Gu Fan said to himself, he didn't want to smell like this again.
The remaining two man-eating insects on the ground did not attack for a long time, but instead circled around Gu Fan.
"Be careful, don't forget that there's another one under the sand. Yue Lao reminded that this is the real hidden danger.
"Rest assured. The corners of Gu Fan's mouth rose slightly, since he was locked now, and these three man-eating insects didn't look very strong, let's go all out!
Flame Fist!
The fist burning with purple flames swung out again, striking at a man-eating insect.
Rumble!
Rumble!
One after another sounds sounded, Gu Fan's fist accurately hit the two man-eating insects, and the desert suddenly resounded with the screams of the man-eating insects.
Their defense couldn't stop Gu Fan's continuous attacks at all, and after a while, they lay on the ground and were dying, a puddle of viscous liquid flowed out of the bloody mouth before, and the pungent smell permeated again.
"Neither burning nor fighting. Gu Fan said in a deep voice, this smell, smell it once and disgust it once.
Just as Gu Fan moved his wrist, the man-eating insect that was hiding in the sand before slowly poked its head out in front of Gu Fan.
"You want to die too?"
