Chapter 20: The Black Mist of Insect Eaters

The walking beast Shangyuan Zhen closed his eyes and recuperated, mainly studying how to fuse the whirlwind knife with the strength of the Breaking Blade.

Martial arts in the world, different paths to the same end, ten thousand rivers, the sea in one vein.

The ancient saints of China had already broken the essence of martial arts.

This road to the Dry Bone Forest becomes more and more frightening. After passing through this snow-covered dense forest, he was actually in a swampy area, and when he walked into this area, Jiang Xue'er, as a teacher, was the first to feel unwell.

Even Wonjin frowned.

It was a chaotic situation of monster beasts struggling and roaring, and emotions filled the air.

Roaring, struggling, confusion, violence, mixed with a dark aura akin to the fear of death.

"Huh?"

Wang Yiwen's foot-walking beast stopped, the tall ichthyosaurus actually lowered its head at this time, and kept wailing, with the howl of the foot-walking beast, Yuanzhen and their mounts let out a strange roar, the voice was low, uneasy, fearful, angry and various emotions were intertwined.

"Be careful, everyone!"

"I felt a corrupt, cold aura swirling all around. ”

Jiang Heng was dressed in a strong suit, and the "Fire Snake Gun" in his hand exuded a scorching aura.

Yuan Zhen sensed the breath of the blood-pupil double-headed snake from that gun, and it seemed that the "Fire Snake Spear" that was invisibly swaying a fiery breath around him was made of snake bones.

However, in addition to the material of this heat source, the two-headed snake's body also has a material that infects venom, which is extremely corrosive, I wonder if they have made it into a weapon?

Jiang Heng's words did not fall, and a group of crows circled around the sky above the swamp.

The screams of wow wow in this swamp full of demon beast corpses seemed extremely weird.

"This swamp doesn't seem to be the same as the Dry Bone Forest recorded in our hunting camp. Zhou Long said with a solemn expression.

Yuan Zhen jumped down the foot beast, his leather boots stepped on the soft soil one by one obvious footprints, he grabbed a handful of soil, put it on his nose and sniffed lightly, and then said: "There is a smell of blood in the soil, look at the formation of this soil, there are still many dead remains turned out by the plow, I think this swamp looks like it has been turned over recently, and it doesn't seem like it has existed for a long time."

"Look!"

"What's that?"

Li Ziyang exclaimed: "This seems to be.... Huh, a herd of troopod corpses?"

Everyone followed his gaze, and the sewage of the swamp was soaked in the corpses of fish-shaped monsters and unknown beasts, most of the corpses still had their upper bodies suspended in the soil, but the lower bodies were infected in the swamp and washed into crystal white bones.

Half flesh, half bones.

It seems to feel the tragic death of the same kind, no wonder it makes Yuanzhen their walking beasts wail.

The group of crows swirling in the sky rushed towards the corpses of the demon beasts one by one, and due to the huge number of crows, they soon let the wreckage hanging on the shore sink little by little, and every time they sank, the flesh soaked in the swamp melted into white bones at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"It's... How so?"

Jiang Xue'er's cherry-like lips were full of surprise!

"It's not good to go!"

Yuan Zhen exclaimed, which attracted everyone's attention in a moment.

It turned out that within the range of his mental detection, he sensed an extremely large aura that was coming towards them.

Swift, furious, like a flood.

"It's a group of bone-washing demons!"

The picture that came from Li Ziyang's detector was like a flood of monster beasts, densely impacted.

"Six kilometers ..."

"Three kilometers ...

"A kilometer up...."

In just a dozen seconds, the violent feeling poured out, and along with the demons came a huge black curtain!

The cold darkness that shrouded the surroundings spread like mist.

"Oh my God!, what's behind the bone-washing demon group?"

Yuan Zhen was a spirit, suddenly climbed over to the back of the walking beast, picked up the reins and turned around and roared: "Hurry up, that's the black fog of the insect eater!"

Devouring the black flames emanating from the demon insects, a large black mist formed followed the group of bone-washing demons.

With a jingle of bells, the inscription pendant on Jiang Xue'er's body exuded a violent tremor, and with the vibration came a dazzling black light, Jiang Xue'er said coquettishly: "The insect-devouring black mist seems to be chasing the bone demon group, that! The bone demon is coming in our direction." ”

Everyone was cold, and immediately rode the fish dragon to turn around.

"Don't, don't look back, once we turn around and devour the demon worms, they will attack the hunting party behind us. ”

Yuan Zhen drank violently, causing everyone to be anxious on the spot.

Jiang Heng said in a hurried tone: "Ziyang, how much energy do we carry?"

Li Ziyang pondered for a moment and said, "It's not much, the heat source energy carried can barely support the defensive shield for about 10 minutes." ”

"Now the situation is very critical, we don't have many options?" Jiang Huan formulated several plans in a very short time.

"First, we turned around and returned to the hunting camp and used the power of the hunting camp to destroy the insect mist. ”

"The second is that we will lure the insect demons away and prevent them from attacking the hunting team. ”

Yuan Zhen's expression was solemn, and he said in a resolute tone: "We still have a third choice, that is, to face them head-on and destroy them!"

"Are you crazy?"

"What!"

Wang Yiwen, Zhou Long and others didn't understand, and even Jiang Huan was very stunned.

Only Jiang Xue'er said softly: "Senior Brother Yuanzhen is right!"

"If we turn around and go back, it will undoubtedly delay the trip, and once there is a large-scale battle, it will be like a torch lit in the dark, which will attract the attention of many demon beasts. ”

"Even if we lure away the black fog of insect eaters, judging from the current situation, we are not familiar with the entire dry bone forest and swamp area at all, instead of looking for directions in a panic, it is better to deploy defenses in advance."

Yuan Zhen turned his head to look at Jiang Xue'er, who had a smart look on his face, and a moving brilliance lurked under his clear eyes.

Jiang Xue'er quickly analyzed the current situation and their best choice, which made Yuan Zhen feel good in his heart.

The one who can instantly understand his inner thoughts is still Miss Jiang of this fortress family.

Jiang Xue'er met Wonzhen's gaze, and the sly expression on her face disappeared, replaced by the mischievous appearance of a hippie smile.

Jiang Heng stuck the "Fire Snake Spear" in his hand straight into the ground, and as a senior hunter with rich combat experience, he made a defense plan before he could catch his breath.

"We need to build a defensive solid one by one to release the energy shield. ”

"Li Ziyang, how many rounds can your ice quiver release?"

"Zhou Long, you and Wang Yiwen, assist Li Ziyang in arranging the energy cover. ”

"Xue'er, don't go to Yuanzhen's side, come to me. ”

"Yuan Zhen, you and I will go with you to block the advance of the insect-devouring black fog and reserve time for them to set up. ”

Jiang Xue'er stuck out her tongue and came to Jiang Huan's side very reluctantly, who rewarded her with a ruthless burst.

"Ouch, it hurts me, brother..."

"Hmph, the thing I hate the most is the person who has nothing to do to hook up with my sister. After speaking, his face was very unceremonious towards Yuan Zhen.

Yuan Zhen scratched his head inexplicably, a little helpless.

The short time passed quickly, and several people roughly formulated a response plan to gnaw at the demon insects, and the black mist began to spread.

Everywhere he passed, he either left traces of being burned or was gnawed by the swarms of insects, and puffs of black smoke stretched out behind the mess.

The bone-washing demon group was originally an amphibious demon beast, with the head of a piranha, covered with scale-like scales, the front half of the body resembles a fish, the second half of the body is like a snake, and the tail is dragged behind a tail full of barbs, don't look at the size of this demon beast, but the size of about half a meter, but it moves particularly quickly, generally speaking, it is a group action, and there are few examples of traveling alone.

Usually the area where the bone-washing monsters are infested is generally a swampy river area. It is rarely found in dense forests.

Especially the snow behind the jungle.

Getting closer and closer, the huge fleeing aura swept with all kinds of roars of demon beasts, which gradually became clear in Yuanzhen's spiritual sense.

What happened next shocked him.

The insect-devouring black mist continued to pass through the bone-washing demon group, and those creeping slow demon beasts were instantly shrouded in black mist, and all that was left behind behind a burst of flames was ashes, and there was not even the slightest residue of bones.

Yuan Zhen was shocked: "This is the power of the swarm?"

"One Kilometer"

"Five hundred meters..."

Yuan Zhen exclaimed, "Quickly open the energy shield." ”

With a buzz, Li Ziyang, Wang Yiwen, and Zhou Long stood in a triangular shape, and the instrument in their hands shot out three rays of light, and finally converged in the air and finally intertwined into a light blue defensive cover, covering the six people and the walking beast.

Energy shields are a precious defensive weapon that is usually expensive to build, and if you estimate it in federal currency, each energy shield can sell for a sky-high price.

The energy shields circulating on the market are all that can resist low-level demon beasts, except for the occasional high-grade defensive shield at the auction in Anyang Province, there is only the "barrier space" used by the hunters.

The rarity of the energy shield depends on the area covered, the level of the monster against it, and the duration.

As a high-level mechanical hunter, the energy shield carried by Li Ziyang belongs to a kind of high-level defense cover, which is only a little worse than the "barrier space" of the hunters, and it is just a little worse!

Yuan Zhen has long wanted to ask, are the fortress hunters like Li Ziyang who are adjacent to the burial ground of the "Mechanical Paradise" a mobile arsenal?

In the covered area of the Dry Bone Forest Jungle, where there were at least hundreds of large swamp deep pits as far as the eye could see, countless groups of bone-washing demons were gradually shrouded in black mist, and huge beasts were surging like a flood.

The sound of "clang" sounded, and it was when the demon beasts were escaping from the black mist, and the continuous impact on the light blue energy shield produced a violent sound.

The shaking feeling came, and the arms of Wang Yiwen, Zhou Long, and Li Ziyang trembled violently, and there was a tremor like an earthquake of at least seven or eight magnitudes on the ground.

"Hurry up and find a way, I won't be able to last long..."Li Ziyang gritted his teeth and motioned to the other two to arrange the instruments in their hands.

Immediately, he quickly took out a bunch of weapons and materials from the duffel bag on the back of the fish and dragon, and assembled them there.

"EV-2 Ice Quiver?" Wonjin was surprised to see that impressive and powerful weapon again.

Then the alarm sound from the triangular instrument made everyone turn pale.

Jiang Heng said in an anxious tone: "We must divert the demon beasts and reduce the force area of the energy shield, so that it can be supported." ”

Yuan Zhen turned his head to look at him, and said in a light tone, "I'll come!"

Immediately, he took off the battle blade forged by the demon beast bone smelting special alloy from his back, and this blade slowly came out of its sheath, and a strange and powerful aura began to show its edge.
