0081 Shadow of Death

Qin Zhong prepared seven days' worth of food and a small amount of medicine, his current situation basically didn't need medicine, but out of habit, he still stuffed some commonly used medicines into his backpack, and the food was mostly some bagged food, chocolate, beef jerky, and a few packets of instant noodles, and even a small bottle of Lao Baigan and a pack of cigars.

He had never been a masochist, not to mention that his physical fitness was now almost completely immune to alcohol, nicotine and the like. His requirements for the quality of life are not low, and in the last days, food is also a kind of nostalgia, which makes him firmly believe that he is still living in human society and sticking to the glory of the past.

From the moment the people of the community were evacuated, the army had abandoned this place, which means that this was already an official no-man's land, he lived on the fifteenth floor, and for insurance, he destroyed all the stairs from the first to the tenth floor.

He went straight to the roof of the building and slid down the drain from the back of the building. The whole community was quiet and gray like a ghost town, as soon as his feet touched the ground, he unfolded his body, exerting the spiritual sense of his ears and eyes to the maximum, like a string arrow straight into the suburbs, gusts of wind swept by, he enjoyed this feeling of galloping before the battle.

Soon, he came to a small village called "Taoyuan Farm" 35 miles away from the city, which was once a famous local tourist spot by the mountains and rivers, and the small village full of peach trees and bamboo forests on both sides of the river.

Halfway up the mountain, a vertical half-open eye-shaped spatial passage was in sight, and teams of knife insects and ironwing insects were coming out of the passage in a steady stream, and occasionally some insects that could not be named came out.

At the beginning, the army also came to attack this passage, and once occupied here, with the defeat of the follow-up city war, after the comprehensive retreat, it was not possible to take care of here, at that time Qin Zhong was just Siyuan Xiaocheng who dared to come here to fish in troubled waters, and now to impact Liuyuan, the first choice is of course the assembly place of this Zerg.

After these days of fighting and observing, Qin Zhong knew that the most stable passage was one with full eyes, which could pass through the heavy classes of the Zerg, such as the Thunder Beast and the Hellfire Bird.

Half-open passages like this are relatively stable, and can pass through medium and light Zerg troops, but not large Zerg.

The most unstable ones are fragmentary, and they can only pass through the creatures of the worker insects, and even the knife insects can't get through.

The formation of the tunnel is not fixed, and sometimes it will close automatically, and will disappear after taking a certain amount of damage from the hit.

The division of heavy, light, and medium classes here is based on energy, such as the Hellfire Bird, which is smaller than the Iron Winged Worm, but the flames it spits out are more harmful than the flames of the Thunder Beast, which can be called nothing without burning, like this Zerg, it cannot enter and exit from small and medium-sized passages.

A large ant-burrow-like object in the village was taking shape, and from the finished part, it looked like a majestic mountain of flesh and blood, with a height of fifty meters and a diameter of more than three hundred meters.

The surface was covered with thigh-thick blue-black tendons and blood vessels, and various viscous liquids were secreted, making a gurgling sound, and the air was filled with a strange red smell.

The nodulous flesh wall grows upwards in waves, and through the gaps you can see the intricate pipes inside, the surface of which is covered with extremely thick purple-red 'colored' veins. This huge structure is called the Worm Hive.

Densely packed with a millstone-sized, purple-red 'colored' six-legged spider-like beetle that Qin Zhong called a worker insect was busy.

Around it, there are a large number of organic buildings that are purple-red, and the whole style can be said to be the exposed layer of flesh and blood that has been peeled off the skin.

These buildings and the hive are strangely and organically combined, but indescribably harmonious, these buildings can also be said to be the organs of this base camp, the lowest of which are as tall as two or three stories high, hideous, weird, and terrifying.

He gathered his breath and slowly approached the visual range to observe carefully, the insect nest has three entrances, the largest entrance in the middle is the place where the knife worm enters and exits, the top one is the place where the flying Zerg such as the ironwing worm enter and exit, and the smaller one on the left is the place where some rare and special Zerg enter and exit.

According to Qin Chong's estimates, such a hive could contain at least nearly 100,000 Zerg in order to reach a saturated state. And by analogy, the Zerg's buildings are all mobile, and if this hive also has the ability to move, it will be a disaster for humans.

The village is very tightly guarded, patrolling with five layers of knives and insects in the front and back of the periphery, there are iron-winged insects in the sky, and from time to time there are hellfire birds taking off and hovering around, like lords patrolling their territory. There is also an unknown moss-like and blister-like lichen growing 100 meters around the hive, which Qin Zhong estimates is also a mutated plant that has a deterrent effect.

The biggest threat to Qin Zhong here in the insect hive is the hellfire bird, don't look at its size, it is only about 100 catties, and its wings are only about 3 meters outstretched, but the sharpness of its attack is only seen at present.

It is called the Hellfire Bird because everyone who attacks it goes to hell.

Also because it has three rings of golden feathers on its neck, it can emit a golden aura attack when it attacks, and everything within the aura is within its burning range, and I don't know what the hell it is, a faint blue-white light flame, and even gives people a bit of a cold feeling. Qin Zhong believes that this is the flame in hell.

However, Qin Zhong saw with his own eyes a hellfire bird launch a halo attack, and the creatures with a diameter of fifteen meters in its aura, including knives and insects, humans, awakened ones, tanks, and plants, all the plant creatures turned into flying ashes within ten seconds, all the building stones turned into gravel, and all the metals turned into juice, nothing could be done, and none of the objects outside the aura were damaged. It can be described as a textbook model of precision strike.

However, the Hellfire Bird's aura attack is not launched casually, and under normal circumstances, only when the regular dinging claw does not work or a large-scale attack will the move be amplified and the aura will be opened.

He patiently observed for another three hours, and determined that there were a total of 5 hellfire birds in this nest, and this kind of bird should be the strongest unit that flew here from other nests to guard this place, and it was agile and agile, and the attack was sharp and very difficult.

Qin Chong thought to himself that he was not an opponent of this kind of aura flame, he would not be able to withstand it for twenty seconds at most, and if he could compete, he would have to wait at least until he had broken through the True Qi compression six times, and he would have to win the scroll eight times. However, it is still certain that it can get out of the aura of the Hellfire Bird within ten seconds, but this bird is too agile and fast, and he is not sure that he can escape the pursuit after it.

Qin Chong's goal today is just a knife insect, and he is not here to fight the hellfire bird, but after there is a worm nest, there will be no more zergs in the passage within a range of twenty miles, and the zerg will gather in the worm nest, no longer alone, and go out in groups in batches, if you can lead away the hellfire bird, things will be much easier.

He patiently observed for another three hours, but still found nothing, and had to retreat quietly. Found an abandoned house away from the nest and spent the night. At that time, there was no point in day or night, but the long-formed biological clock still reminded him to rest.

The next morning, he slipped to the vicinity of the nest to snoop, and after careful observation, he found two flaws that were not flaws, the Hellfire Birds were afraid of water, or rather, they hated water, and they patrolled within a radius of 2,000 meters centered on the hive, and they would turn back whenever they patrolled to the river, while the river was only about 1,000 meters away from the hive.

Moreover, the Hellfirebird has a strong sense of territory, and generally inspects the place of their own choice, and they will not easily patrol the territory of other Hellfirebird. Qin Zhong wanted to take advantage of these two points, and he was familiar with the terrain three times back and forth by the river, and he always wanted to test the ability of the Hell Firebird before making the next plan.

The vigilance of the Hellfire Bird is very high, as soon as Qin Zhong appeared in the peach forest, he was spotted by a Hellfire Bird hovering over a thousand meters, and then, like a full-powered ground fighter, it dived down in a straight line, and the speed was much faster than what was observed.

Qin Zhong retreated without hesitation, striving to lead it to the river first, then it could be attacked and defended, and sure enough, as soon as he retreated, the Hellfire Bird locked on his body.

The two sides narrowed in a minute, and in the last thirty meters of distance, the hellfire bird flapped its wings and accelerated with the help of force, and in an instant, a pair of black and shining iron claws with cold light were less than 50 cm away from Qin Chong's face door, Qin Chong poured the true yuan into the knife, the runes on the knife flowed like autumn water, and the knife was blocked with all his might, with a sound of "Zheng", sparks splashed, and the blade of the knife "buzzed" for a burst of tremors, and his hands were numb, and he almost couldn't hold the knife.

The Hellfire Bird's body paused slightly, and its curved beak was chiseled like a scythe of death, completely unaffected by its shape, extremely fast, if it was chiseled, at least it would be a bowl-sized scar, or maybe a cracked head.

Qin Chong couldn't react at all, but fortunately, he had thought about various response situations in advance, and at the last moment, his body instinct reacted faster than his head, and he reflexively rolled out like a windmill according to the routine, avoiding it dangerously.

The Hellfire Bird was so strong that it didn't care if it was fighting him on the ground, and it jumped vertically, with blade-sharp wings slashing horizontally at its chest and abdomen.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Qin Chong had no choice but to roll again on the ground again. By a fraction of a second, he dodged the Hellfire Bird's slash.

The blades as sharp as steel knives swept across the trees behind him, and all the trees within the range were neatly broken, and the sound of brushing was next to Qin Chong's ears, and he was wet with cold sweat.

Seeing that Qin Chong was still jumping up and down, the Hell Fire Bird couldn't help but be annoyed, and his wings were picked up from the bottom up, and a cold light went straight to Qin Chong's back, and when it was implemented, it would inevitably break into two halves.

In a hurry, Qin Chong's hands and feet moved three meters flat on the ground like a big spider, and miraculously dodged this killing blow.

Qin Zhong didn't wait to sit up, he lay on the ground and raised his knife to cut it, and sure enough, as soon as the knife was shot, it hit the sharp mouth hook that happened to be chiseled and pecked down. There was another "bang" sound, and the spark splashed twenty centimeters in front of me. The eyes of both sides are in a line.

The Hellfire Bird was obviously very angry at this ant-like thing that dared to look directly at him, and stepped forward, pecking it head-on again and again, and in just a few seconds, it pecked out three times in a row, and its sharp beak like a military thorn could not leave Qin's important harm.

It was impossible to avoid it all, Qin Chong, who was already in a desperate situation, instead had a heart of defeat and sadness, and desperately stabbed the hellfire bird in the eye, of course the hellfire bird would not fight with his life, and slightly slowed down the attack, Qin Chong took advantage of the situation to rush straight over, and took the opportunity of the hellfire bird to turn around and run towards the river.

Not daring to stop, he turned around and stepped on the zigzag wolf rush, desperately rushing in the direction of the river. I really only hate my father and mother for having two legs less.

A large area of air was surging behind him, and the Hellfire Bird had regained its shape, chasing after it, on this route deliberately chosen by Qin Chong, there were dense peach tree branches staggered and horizontal, these things were useless under the powerful impact of the Hellfire Bird, and the sound of the branches tearing densely into the ears, whistling.

It's already a high estimation of the Hellfire Bird, I can't imagine that I still underestimate this creature, it's really careless, I didn't expect the Hellfire Bird's conventional attack to be so sharp, and it deserves to be the top class of the Zerg at present.

Qin Chong was struggling to support it in milliseconds, the soreness of his hands had not fully recovered, Qin Chong did not dare to turn back to attack it, he just blindly ran away, and Xiaohe was gradually in sight.

Seeing that Qin Chong would be able to rush into the river in another fifteen or sixteen seconds, the three golden feathers on the Hellfire Bird's neck immediately stood up, and golden rune light appeared in his eyes, and a golden fire ring with a radius of 20 meters appeared at Qin Chong's feet without warning.

He just wanted to test the water, so why did he do this! The shadow of death hung over Qin Chong's body.
