Chapter 1221: A creature that emits silver light
"And!"
Fang Yang turned back decisively, but he didn't find anything, everything was normal as far as the eye could see.
"That's not right!"
Fang Yang obviously sensed the existence of other creatures in the nearby space, which must have been hidden.
Taking advantage of the fact that the creature had not gone far, Fang Yang poured spiritual power into his eyes, and then suddenly opened his eyes, and sure enough, he found a group of moth-like creatures in the marginal boundary between darkness and light.
This moth is very strange, the side near the light is silvery-white, and the side near the dark is inky black, because the wings are as thin as cicada wings, and the vibration frequency is extremely fast, so it is difficult to find in the dark.
Fang Yang pretended not to see anything, and the aura on his body was not abnormal, and he did not alarm the moth.
In fact, he was texting Zhao Chuan and them while observing the moth.
Unlike the twisted dryads devouring the light, this moth seems to be more dependent, always chasing the place where there is light, but not daring to go beyond it, always wandering in it, every time it flappes its wings it will make a different sound, and a group of such moths gather together, forming such a strange sigh.
"Whew~...... I see. ”
Fang Yang finally understood what was going on, it turned out to be the voice made by this creature.
Not to mention anything else, if he hadn't opened the moon pupil and didn't know that such a creature existed in the dark, Leng Buding might have been frightened when he heard this strange sound around him.
Fang Yang pretended to turn around, these creatures followed unhurriedly, he suddenly turned around and gently pinched his index finger and thumb into the air, directly catching a moth.
"Hum~"
The moths were not aggressive, and after a sudden attack, they scattered and fled, disappearing in the darkness in an instant.
Fang Yang put the captured moth into a crystal bottle and returned to the camp to gather with his teammates.
"Captain, what did you catch?"
Tang Yu was most curious and couldn't help asking.
Fang Yang handed him the crystal bottle and explained, "Don't get killed, we may know more about Frost Spirit Valley from this creature." ”
"Fang Yang, do we still use lighting? I'm worried that there will be creatures in the valley attacking. ”
Zhao Chuan looked at the dark environment around him at this time, and always felt that there were unknown creatures watching them.
Fang Yang's face was moved, and he thought for a while and said: "If you don't ignite the darkness around the camp, there will be more dangers, so let's do it not be long before dawn, let's stand outside in groups of two." ”
"Okay. ”
Zhao Chuan felt that there was only one way at the moment.
This twisted dryad creature might not be as threatening as a fleshball plant that came out of the rock wall, and Fang Yang and the others were perfectly capable of dealing with it in pairs.
During this time, they dealt with four or five more treant creatures, and even more often, two or three appeared together, all to devour the energy in the light.
It was almost early in the morning when the dark clouds covering the Frost Spirit Valley receded, and a rare moonlight appeared.
The moonlight was bleak and eerie, and for a moment, the entire Frost Spirit Valley fell silent.
The cold howling wind in the valley, the inexplicable whimpering sound from time to time, and the sound of moths flapping their wings in the darkness all came to an abrupt end.
Fang Yang felt a sense of palpitation for no reason at this moment.
However, this palpitation did not last long, only a dozen seconds, and then the whole valley began to clear and the first rays of sunlight appeared.
Not long after, everyone walked out of the camp, looked at the foggy valley, and couldn't help but sigh: "We survived all night?"
Zhao Chuan's face was solemn, and he pointed to the ground not far from the camp and said, "Look. ”
Everyone looked over and saw a circle of black charred ash scattered on both sides of the camp tent, and there was a vague smell wafting from it, and even among the rock walls of the valley against which they were leaning, there was a large patch of shocking black ash.
Porcelain Nian stepped forward, put on charged gloves, picked up a handful of charred ash on the ground, took a closer look, and said, "This is the remains of some kind of creature." ”
Tang Yu couldn't help but be surprised: "Are they using us as a garbage dump?
"No, they wanted to attack us, but because the light is so lethal to them, they didn't get close to us before they became a pile of wreckage. ”
Fang Yang analyzed, "Now I finally understand that the energy detector has been showing frequent fluctuations around me, but I haven't found anything, it turns out that these creatures have died in the process of approaching. ”
"So, it was the lit lighting pile that saved our lives?"
Zhao Chuan corrected and said: "If we didn't hold up last night, it would have hurt us." ”
"Anyway, it's lucky, everyone is okay. ”
Fang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, the Frost Spirit Valley during the day was obviously not as murderous as it was in the dark.
"Take a break, then keep walking back, if the terrain doesn't change much, we won't be out soon. ”
The crowd began to pack their belongings, dismantling the tents and energy devices.
At this time, Tang Yu ran over and shouted, "Captain, look here, look here!"
What he was holding in his hand was a transparent crystal bottle, the one Fang Yang used to hold the moths.
But at this time, the moth in the crystal bottle was long gone, and it was replaced by a silver light that fluttered like a flying flotsam.
"This?"
Fang Yang was surprised, "Why is this so similar to the silver-white fungus recorded in the log?"
Tang Yu was stunned, "I just wanted to say." ”
Porcelain Nian and they also gathered around, watching this scene curiously.
"Could this be a creature that grows out of the fungus?"
As he spoke, everyone turned their eyes to Porcelain Nian, waiting for her affirmation.
"It's possible, after all, the creature in front of you is a little different from what is recorded in the log. ”
Porcelain Nian thought seriously for a while and nodded.
"So, we're almost in the middle of that place on the log?"
Speaking of this, Tang Yu's eyes lit up with hope again.
"Don't be too happy, we haven't found the snow yet. ”
Zhao Chuan poured a basin of cold water on everyone.
Fang Yang touched his chin and pouted, "Anyway, it's a rare discovery, keeping this creature, maybe it can help us find a place where the fungus grows when the time comes." ”
Tang Yu carefully put away the crystal bottle and raised it alive.
Fang Yang and his party began to grope their footprints and walk back, and along the way, they saw many corpses that had not had time to run out and were attacked by creatures in the darkness of Frost Spirit Valley.
Each one was shriveled and withered, his face was pale and stiff, his eyes still carried the fear of dying, and what was even more terrifying was that the body was covered with blood holes, and the black blood oozing from it had coagulated.
The faces of the people were moved, and they couldn't bear to look at it any longer, these people were all pierced through their bodies by the dark tree spirit creatures, and then they were sucked dry of their body functions and died.
Even Fang Yang and them need the cooperation of two people to join forces to be able to subdue a tree spirit, not to mention these martial artists with average strength and bounty hunters who are not equipped in place, if they don't have time to go out, they can only be hunted.
Finally, when it was close to noon, Fang Yang and the others saw the familiar valley crack, and a small city loomed behind it.
