Chapter Ninety-Five: Escape
The man-eater didn't expect it to happen so suddenly, and before he could sneak attack, his teammates were all dead.
"Roar~" The man-eating insect roared, and quickly retracted into the sand, he had already felt the strength of the other party.
"That's pretty much it. Gu Fan smiled and didn't care about the retreating man-eating insect anymore, because the smell of this thing after death was too bad.
Just after Gu Fan left a distance, the man-eating insect slowly poked its head out of the sand, squirmed to the side of the dead kind, and ate it heavily.
"You shouldn't let the last one go. Yue Lao said lightly, Gu Fan's softness was likely to bury hidden dangers for him.
"But that thing stinks. Gu Fan frowned and said, otherwise he would have burned it to death with a fire.
The pungent and disgusting smell could still be felt even if he was so far away now.
"Forbearance is over, and if you can solve it now, don't leave it behind. Yue Lao taught, this time it was a man-eating insect, so if there was something next time, Gu Fan would most likely die because of his softness.
"I see. Gu Fan nodded, what Yue Lao said did make sense.
"Well, it's good that you know. Yue Lao said with a smile, Gu Fan, this kid, is still very good at accepting it with an open mind.
In the afternoon, Gu Fan didn't encounter another man-eating insect, I don't know if it was due to good luck.
Soon, the sky was getting dark, and soon night was approaching.
"Teacher, what should I do?" Gu Fan asked in a deep voice, not knowing whether to continue walking forward or rest in place.
"Keep walking. After thinking for a while, Yue Lao said lightly, the temperature at night is lower, and Gu Fan is equivalent to a piece of fat on the side of his mouth.
That being the case, why not keep moving forward and save some time?
"Good. Gu Fan nodded and agreed, if he stayed here for one night, he wouldn't be able to rest well.
I have to say that the night in the desert is so cold that even a person like Gu Fan with his own Heavenly Fire Body can feel a trace of cold.
Gu Fan slowly increased the speed of the meridians to maintain his body temperature.
However, the road was relatively calm, except for the occasional call of one or two flying eagles in the air, there was no other sound.
"Teacher, you said that this man-eating insect won't sleep at night, right?" Gu Fan guessed with a smile, after all, although he was still a little far from the interior of the desert now, he was definitely not on the periphery.
It's strange that I haven't seen a single man-eating insect for so long.
"Possibly. Yue Lao said casually, after all, the essence of man-eating insects is still insects, and it is normal to have some special habits.
And the temperature in the desert is too low at night, maybe the man-eating insects prefer to hide under the sand to keep their body temperature warmer.
"In that case, let's speed it up. The corners of Gu Fan's mouth rose slightly, and the speed of his feet became faster and faster.
If we can continue at this speed, I am afraid that it will not take a few days to reach the deepest part of the desert.
"Stop dreaming. How could Yue Lao not know what Gu Fan was thinking, so he quickly interrupted.
"Hey, hey. Gu Fan smiled awkwardly, how could there have been no man-eating insects, it was already good to have such an opportunity now.
Gu Fan left one footprint after another on the sand, but they were soon filled in by the nearby sand.
But neither he nor Yue Lao noticed that a little farther behind him, a man-eating insect poked its head out of the sand from time to time, and then retracted.
However, Gu Fan didn't know this, he was very relieved that Elder Yue was here to help him probe the surrounding situation.
"There's still a year to go. Gu Fan sighed, he didn't know how long it would take him to enter the Gegu Desert this time.
"Just in time. Yue Lao said with a smile, he is not worried about this, a year is not long, but it is also said that it is not short, if Gu Fan makes good use of it, he will not have a problem at all if he hits the late stage or peak of the Martial King.
"The moon is so round today. Gu Fan glanced up, as if he saw the back of a young girl, but when he blinked and looked again, he disappeared again.
It seemed that he was hallucinating, Gu Fan shook his head vigorously, trying to make himself sober.
"Roar!" Just as Gu Fan was thinking, a huge man-eating insect came out of the sand, and its huge body hit Gu Fan's body.
"Damn!" Gu Fan didn't expect this man-eating insect to give him such a sudden come, and he couldn't help but curse secretly.
"How is that possible?" said Yue Lao in shock, he didn't find a trace of this man-eating insect.
No matter where the man-eating insect is in the sand, as long as it moves, it will cause the sand to bulge and dent, is it ......
"Boy, you're probably in the man-eating population now. Yue Lao said in a deep voice, if it was really what he thought, then this man-eating insect was waiting for the rabbit.
They had been waiting for Gu Fan himself to enter their attack range and then launch a fatal blow.
"Huh~Huh~" Gu Fan was shocked for more than ten meters before he stabilized his body and gasped violently.
Just now, I really jumped myself.
"This man-eating insect is only over five meters long, so I should be able to handle it. Gu Fan looked at the man-eating insect that attacked him and planned.
"It's more than two meters longer than the previous ones, and although it can't be killed in one hit, it shouldn't be difficult. Yue Lao analyzed.
"But the problem is, I seem to have one under your feet. ”
Hearing Yue Lao's words, Gu Fan retreated suddenly, and then a man-eating insect rushed out with a big mouth.
If it weren't for Gu Fan's timely dodge, he would have entered the stomach of the man-eating insect.
"Don't be stunned, run quickly!" Elder Yue shouted, he could feel more and more breath nearby, and it was obvious that the man-eating insects had woken up.
"Run, run, run!" Gu Fan didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly increased his speed to the extreme and ran forward.
Another man-eating insect burst out of the nearby sand, mucus dripping from its mouth onto the ground, leaving a scorched trail.
"Here we go again. Gu Fan frowned slightly, jumped and dodged.
At the same time, directly below him, a man-eating insect with a bloody mouth rushed straight out of the sand and bit Gu Fan in the air.
"Give me death!" Gu Fan didn't hesitate, and directly threw out a purple flame and hit the man-eating insect.
Bang!
The purple flame struck the man-eating insect on the head, causing it to lose its speed and crash to the sand.
"It's not bad. Yue Lao praised with a smile, looking at it now, Gu Fan's actual combat level is enough to deal with all kinds of emergencies.
"Now is not the time to talk about that. Gu Fan did not hesitate after landing on the ground, and continued to run forward.
The huge man-eating insects behind him were not frightened by the attack on their companions, but followed behind Gu Fan angrily.
Although they had no legs and feet, their speed was not satisfactory at all, and even with the advantage of sand, the distance between them and Gu Fan was getting smaller and smaller.
"Get out of here!" Gu Fan moved his meridians slightly, and his hands burned with purple flames at the same time.
Rumble!
Gu Fan turned his head abruptly and threw out the flames in his hand together, instantly leaving a flame barrier behind him.
"Now it's up to you how you chase!" Gu Fan said with a smile, but he forgot a fatal thing.
"Boy, man-eating insects burrow into the ground. Yue Lao reminded that although Gu Fan's hand looked beautiful, it really had no effect at all.
"Gan!" Gu Fan scolded angrily, how could he forget about this, his wall of fire was completely useless in front of the man-eating insects.
Sure enough, the wall of purple fire in front of the man-eating insect invariably burrowed into the ground, and after a few moments, it came out of the sand again.
As soon as he entered and exited, he crossed the wall of fire laid by Gu Fan and continued to pursue.
The huge body twisted from side to side, making it hard to imagine that such a legless thing could run so fast.
"When will this have to be shaken off?" Gu Fan glanced back at the man-eating insects behind him, although the flame barrier just now didn't stop them, but it didn't delay for a while.
Purple flames poured out of his body until his whole person was enveloped in flames, like a purple streamer.
Each step falls and lifts, leaving behind purple footprints that remain on the sand, burning continuously.
The man-eating insects also instinctively dodged when they saw these flames, which bought Gu Fan a lot of time, and the distance between the two sides became wider and wider.
"Roar!"
But this scene didn't last long, and several man-eating insects jumped up from the sand and pounced on Gu Fan.
They are also a little larger than the previous ones, the longest even approaching ten meters.
"It's really a disaster. Gu Fan flexibly dodged the attack of the man-eating insects.
The sheer size of these man-eating insects, while an advantage, is also a disadvantage.
After they have finished attacking once, if they want to attack again, they must first adjust their bodies.
"I think you kid can handle it pretty easily. Yue Lao quipped, so far, the man-eating insects have not caused a single substantial damage to Gu Fan.
Although it seems that Gu Fan is embarrassed to be hunted down now, being able to run is also part of his strength.
"Damn, don't be joking, hurry up and find a way. Gu Fan said loudly, now is not the time to joke.
Now I am indeed able to dodge with ease, and even have spare strength, but my physical strength will eventually be exhausted, and the man-eating insects don't know how many more.
"If only you killed them all. Yue Lao laughed and said, it's still fun to tease Gu Fan.
". "But Gu Fan is not in the mood now, the person being hunted down is himself and not you!
Then a few more flames were thrown, keeping the man-eating insects away from him a little farther away from him again.
"There must be a way. Yue Lao said slowly, he had found a best place to hide.
"Where!" Gu Fan asked urgently, the feeling of being chased by a group of man-eating insects was really uncomfortable.
"You keep running, and I feel like there's an oasis not far away. Yue Lao said mysteriously.
Gu Fan frowned, and looked not far ahead, although he didn't see the shadow of the oasis, but now, he could only pray that Yue Lao's feeling was not wrong.
