Jiang Ling and the three of them walked on the Worm Island with few clues, which can be described as walking on thin ice, and they were worried, and now a full twenty minutes have passed, and they have only traveled a distance of about a kilometer.

It wasn't until Song Wei found a footprint stained with the blood of insects that the three of them roughly determined the direction and continued to chase after them. Then I heard a thud, like something had exploded.

"Let's go, go over and have a look." Jiang Ling greeted him after hearing the sound.

Xi Jiu reminded: "It's decided so rashly, won't it be dangerous?" ”

"It's definitely risky, but we don't have a better choice." Jiang Ling replied.

Song Wei also said: "At present, we have only speculated and even guessed some information from the battlefield preview and a Qi family waist card, and we have no understanding of the plot of this battlefield, and there is no substantial progress. In such a situation, if you suddenly encounter such a sound, you must go and take a look. ”

"The reasons for this noise are nothing more than four situations." Jiang Ling continued to walk in the front, cautiously approaching that side, and said at the same time: "First, the Qi family elder has already fought with the pursuers. Second, the elders of the Qi family are fighting insects. Thirdly, the Divine Court or pursuers from other places are fighting insects. Fourth, it is a fight between two bugs, or a bug doing something special, for example, the bug has a special ability to cause an explosion, is digging for rocks or something, or it may just be some natural phenomenon, such as the sound of a hot spring erupting under the island, in short, it has nothing to do with the main character. ”

"At the moment, we don't have the main quest to remember, maybe we don't have enough clues to collect, or maybe it will only be triggered when we get close to the characters. Either of the first three will most likely trigger our main quest so that we don't continue to run around like headless flies. ”

After listening to Jiang Ling's words, Xi Jiu naturally understood the meaning, if you want to advance the development of the plot, you must trigger some flags, even if you take some risks. After all, this worm island is not a place to stay for a long time, and completing the main quest as soon as possible is the key.

Song Wei asked at this time: "If the main line is triggered after contacting the plot characters, do you think there is a possibility that which plot character we contact first will decide who we are helping this time?" ”

Jiang Ling nodded and said, "There is a possibility." ”

Of course, in his heart, Jiang Ling still hopes that this mission is to help the elders of the Qi family, after all, he is fighting side by side with the Qi Meiren in the City of Chaos, and he also has the Qi family's guest order, which is relatively easier to gain the trust of the other party, and can also enhance the relationship between Jiang Ling and the Qi family. It's just that the specific main quest this time depends on the arrangement of the system.

In a short time, the three of them had already approached the place where the sound had been made before, and there were more than a dozen stout and tall trees scattered here, and the leaves of this tree were also very large, not the same as the gray-white trees they had seen before. As we approached, we could hear the sound of intermittent explosions.

Jiang Ling walked cautiously in front, saw a figure, and reminded, "Someone is here." ”

About twenty meters ahead, there was a man dressed in gray, I saw the flames burning in his hands, and he shook his hand to shoot a fireball the size of a football, which flew out quickly and smashed into a butterfly.

It is a huge butterfly the size of an eagle, dark gray throughout, with a pair of fist-sized compound eyes on either side of its forehead, and a pair of antennae rising into the sky, like two antennas.

There were seven of them, and you could see that there were already seven or eight charred butterfly carcasses on the ground.

Although the fireball arithmetic

It is the most basic fire-type spell, even a mage who is proficient in other systems can cast it, but Jiang Ling did not underestimate this person's strength at all, because it was obvious that the fireball shot by this person was extraordinary.

The fireball was pure in mana, burning with bright orange flames, like a small sun, and the fireball quickly swept through the air, and the air appeared in a distorted trajectory. Then the fireball smashed on a butterfly, and a large area of charred black suddenly appeared on the butterfly's body, but to Jiang Ling's surprise, the butterfly did not die immediately, but also flashed its wings and trembled two tentacles, wanting to get close to the man.

Jiang Ling saw the man, and the man also found Jiang Ling and the three, he fought and retreated, and turned his head to glance at the three of them, his eyes were a little suspicious and vigilant.

Before Jiang Ling could think about it, the voice of the long-awaited system prompt came in the next moment.

With the main quest issued, Jiang Ling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, he was also surprised that this main quest gave a special hint unprecedentedly, and the information revealed was also very crucial.

I think the crisis level of Worm Island has seriously exceeded the level, so the system has given some help. And so far, most of the tasks Jiang Ling has received are ordinary and difficult, and the tasks of the difficulty level are extremely rare.

After listening to the main quest, Song Wei said eagerly: "Go and save people." ”

"Okay." Xi Jiu also responded: "It's a good time to gain the trust of the characters in the plot." ”

Jiang Ling was still wondering if there was any other information hidden in the main quest, but when he saw that Song Wei and Xi Jiu had already rushed over, he followed suit. After all, seeing the man being besieged by butterflies, although it seemed that there was no fear for his life, there was no reason for them to sit idly by.

"Rock Grip!" After Song Wei approached ten steps, he shouted, and the sand and soil on the ground in front of him condensed, turned into a rock in an instant, and formed a huge palm, which rose up and directly held a butterfly.

Xi Jiu also released his mana, and the volley condensed a two-meter-long ice sword, which was pale blue and crystal clear, swirling with cold mist, and slashed towards another butterfly.

The giant hand of the grinding disc held a butterfly tightly, and normally, even a buffalo would not take long to break its bones in the face of this move, but the butterfly struggled desperately, and the scales and rock debris on its wings kept falling. A moment later, the butterfly let out a cry that seemed to come out of nowhere, and the rock's palm trembled violently, and the stone chips flew everywhere.

And the ice sword over there swung down suddenly, and the butterfly couldn't dodge and was struck in its wings, but this sword, which had the power of breaking gold and gravel, failed to cut off its wings, but it also made a dent, and the frost on the sword attached to its wings, causing its flight to be seriously affected. The next moment, the big sword slashed again, and the butterfly was also a pair of tentacles trembling slightly, making the same sound, causing the big sword to stagnate in mid-air, and even a trace of crack appeared on the sword body.

"What's going on!?" Xi Jiu was taken aback.

Song Wei

also with a solemn face, he said in surprise: "This butterfly can use telekinesis? ”

"What?" Jiang Ling was also taken aback, although Song Wei and Xi Jiu were not in the standings, they were both good players in the Heavenly Change Realm, and when the two of them shot with all their might, they couldn't kill a butterfly, and Jiang Ling did feel the fluctuation of telekinesis from those two butterflies.

"The old lady doesn't believe it!" Xi Jiu burst out, the mana urged again, and the ice sword slashed down again, this sword directly cut a hole in the butterfly's wings, and the butterfly's body naturally fell from mid-air.

Song Wei also clenched his fist suddenly, and as he moved, the giant rock hand also increased its strength, clenching it tightly until the butterfly stopped moving.

Seeing that its kind was being attacked, a butterfly immediately turned its head and sent out a wave of sound towards Song Wei. Jiang Ling condensed the Nian Qi barrier and blocked Song Wei's body, and as the sound wave hit the Nian Qi barrier, the air in that place suddenly distorted.

Jiang Ling's pupils also shrank, and he said in disbelief: "It's about the level of telekinesis in the Heavenly Change Realm, this butterfly is so powerful?" ”

The gray-clothed man was vigilantly following the three of them with his peripheral vision, but when he saw the three of them helping, the man attacked the rest of the butterflies with fireballs and said, "Be careful, these butterflies have a strong mental qi attack, and the scales on their bodies can resist mana damage and attack their abdomen." ”

"Damn, this butterfly can be used as a Zhenshan Divine Beast in a third-rate sect." Xi Jiu muttered, and then the cold ice sword fell, stabbing into the belly of the butterfly that fell to the ground, and at the same time, half of the butterfly's body was covered with a layer of frost.

Song Wei once again commanded the giant hand to grab another butterfly, but the butterfly immediately flapped its wings and rose half a meter high, avoiding the capture of the palm, but in the palm of the rock palm, a vine as thick as an arm rose in vain, like a poisonous snake predatoring, lightning popped out, wrapped around the butterfly, pulled it down alive, and then was grasped by the rock palm.

As the three butterflies were killed, two more turned around and attacked Jiang Ling and the others, and the pressure on the gray-clothed man over there was greatly reduced, he did not dodge, but stood firm and raised his left hand. I saw him raise his index finger and middle finger together, and the flame burned on his finger, and the bright yellow flame faded in color and turned into a pale cyan in an instant. As he moved a little forward, the cyan flames turned into a straight line, piercing the belly of a butterfly like a sharp arrow.

Then he repeated his old trick and sent another line of fire, killing the other butterfly quickly.

On this side, Xi Jiu controlled the Ice Sword to turn around and slash at the other two butterflies, one of the butterflies frantically flapped its wings and shook the tentacles on its head, and its mental power exploded, causing the Ice Sword to stagnate in mid-air, and the rock giant hand in the ground was also shattered by three fingers.

The other butterfly suddenly turned around and was about to fly away.

Seeing this, the gray-clothed man's pupils shrank, and he raised his hand to shoot a more rapid and pure cyan flame arrow, which landed on the butterfly's back, but the butterfly endured the blow and quickly flew away.

The man in gray snorted, "You can't let it go." ”

Jiang Ling immediately condensed his mental power and turned into an invisible sword, and also flew towards the butterfly, but he still couldn't leave it behind.

"Once it goes back and awakens the Butterfly Emperor, we'll be in danger." The man in gray couldn't help but sigh in annoyance when he saw that the butterfly had flapped its wings and flew away.

"And there's something even better!?" Xi Jiu was shocked when he heard this.

"Sure enough, don't mess with butterflies." Jiang Ling looked at the corpse of the butterfly on the ground, and saw that a black and white Tai Chi pattern was faintly visible behind this butterfly, and a sense of crisis appeared in his heart.

Ordinary butterflies already have the strength of the heavenly realm, so what kind of realm should the butterfly emperor be?
