Chapter 107: Dragon's Eye Tick
Our condensed attack landed on those insects, dense insect corpses mixed with a little dirt and rocks flying all over the sky, and after our attack, the movement speed of those insects slowly slowed down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info stays where it is, doesn't expand outward.
I watched as a dying little red worm landed in front of me, almost a centimeter in diameter, and the pattern on its back was like an eye, quietly watching me.
It's weird, what kind of bug is this? I slowly lifted the Dragonfall Knife in my hand and stabbed through its body, black and red blood flowing out of its body, infecting the ground with the same red.
After I had just killed this bug, the small red bugs that had been scattered all over the place by us before actually slowly crawled up again, except for the bugs we had just killed directly, and the rest of the bugs that vibrated because of the aftermath of the attack gathered into the swarm again.
"What kind of bugs are these, their vitality is so strong" Our attacks are not toy guns that children play with, what is the situation with these bugs.
If that's the case, if those bugs are not afraid to charge at us, except for me, there is also a soul seeker who is also in the middle of the foundation building, and the rest of us will be wiped out here.
I'm starting to regret not letting the others retreat, because the bugs are really starting to move closer to us, just as I thought.
Before I could say the word retreat, our men began to attack themselves.
Pits appeared under our attack, and along with them were patches of insect corpses.
Fortunately, there was a lot of black blood in the bodies of those insects, and after we broke their bodies, that blood infected the land, otherwise, we would be surrounded by dust, and our situation would be much more dangerous.
However, we are not in a very optimistic situation now, because these bugs seem to be killing more and more, and if you accidentally let these bugs fall on your body, they will become dry corpses in minutes. Because I saw a little bird pass over us, and just as a bug flew into the air because of the recoiling force of the attack wave, it fell on the belly of the little bird. In less than five seconds, the little bird instantly turned into a corpse.
And the most unexpected thing for us was that after the bird fell to the ground, its body actually swelled, as if something wanted to rush out.
Two minutes later, two small red bugs actually broke through the bird's body and joined the army of bugs and crawled towards us.
"Woo~" A melodious sound of the flute came from behind us.
You don't have to think about it to know that our rescue has finally arrived.
After hearing the sound of the flute, the insects really stopped moving, and stood still in place.
"Quick Exit"
Eh, we still thought that we could do a big job, but I didn't expect Yang Tian to come to such a sentence, no matter what mood he is in, what he said is right, let's withdraw it first, and then think about it in the long run.
We have been retreating a distance of 200 meters, and at such a distance, we can attack and retreat.
I looked at our reinforcements, one two, two one, no matter how you count it, it's two, are you TM kidding me. What can such a few people do. Yes, the real person of Harmonic came with me, but, alas~ I kind of know, you are just teaseing me.
Forget it, it's like this now, I'm looking for someone, and getting angry with them won't change anything, it's better to call someone to actually come now.
At the same time as I called someone, the real person also told me the origin of this bug.
It turns out that this insect is called the longan beetle tick, which is a parasite that feeds on blood and the vitality of living beings. It is rumored that this insect was originally a very common grass tick (parasitic on animals and feeding on the blood of the host), but it once parasitized on the body of a dragon, and evolved after sucking the dragon's blood, giving birth to a dragon's eye pattern on its back, and possessing the dragon's defense, so it is called a dragon's eye tick.
There is also a saying that this longan beetle tick is actually a kind of Gu worm, because its body is beyond the size of ordinary ticks, and the patterns on its back, so it is called longan beetle tick.
The only weakness is the single attack method and slow action, but such weakness is not so important in such a large group.
So now we have to face the problem of solving such a group of ticks that have no vulnerability, and then find out who is behind them.
However, both are difficult to implement. Especially to investigate and deal with the masterminds behind the scenes, if you say that it is very simple to solve these insects in front of you, I will call everyone in the base, I don't believe that they can't be solved, it really can't be done, so I will ask Tan Lao and them to come out of the mountain.
The only thing that gives me a headache is that the person hiding behind the scenes, if he is not caught, such a thing will not happen only this once.
Half an hour later, under the delay of the real people, we finally waited for the arrival of reinforcements, and all of us, concentrated our firepower, finally solved these longan ticks.
"Strange, what about their owners," said Harmonic Man, after watching the last longan beetle tick being dealt with, he suddenly said.
"What master," I asked, looking at him, puzzled.
"With such a huge swarm of longan beetle ticks, it is impossible for no one to raise them, because this kind of insect has been extinct in the Qing Dynasty, unless someone refines them, and I have been on guard against their owners suddenly attacking, if these insects are commanded by someone behind, our battle will not be so simple.
It must have taken a lot of effort and time to cultivate such a large swarm, but until now, their owners have not appeared, so I think it is strange."
"You say that, I seem to have noticed it," I looked around, and I was now in the very center of the village, and the dragon-eyed messenger who had reported to me seemed to be a traitor.
When I returned to the base, I pulled up the file of the dragon eyer, and then discussed it with the real people, and found nothing wrong. But after that, I never saw him again, and he just disappeared, with him gone. The hand behind the scenes that controls all this is becoming more and more mysterious, and there is no clue at all.
The events that followed left me no time to think about it, so I could only keep it in my heart and try my best to deal with this sudden change.
