Chapter 245: Meat-eating cockroaches
On the night of December 1st, a hidden sewer entrance.
At this time, the whole city of Helsin was quiet, and only a few areas were fighting, which seemed to be "full of people".
Now the town hall has issued an order for a curfew. The reason for this is the recent unrest in law and order, and the curfew has been imposed to prevent threats to people's lives and property.
But in reality, it was Bishop Wesley of the Bacon church who came up with the idea.
War is about to start with the followers of the six-fingered evil god Grassalon. Although the battlefield is in that mysterious half-plane, in order to prevent cultists from taking the opportunity to make trouble in the city, or some young people take advantage of the fire to rob. So there was a curfew and people tried to hide in their homes.
At this time, the Galaxy Rocket Team was already fully assembled.
The old brother is wearing a full set of armor at this time, and the axe is polished! Luna, on the other hand, was dressed in leather armor, with two swords at her waist, a longbow in her hand, and her platinum hair tied in a ponytail behind her head.
The little bun face firefly was holding her hand on the side, her mouth was still moving, and she didn't know what she was eating. Like a goofy hamster.
Charlotte wears a full suit of leather armor including leggings and elbow pads, flanked by a calm and demure Artoria and Alice, who is looking around and unable to calm down. Behind him are the silent and statue-like governor, and the idle Timo-kun.
However, Fei Luo on the side was very low. He stood silently, his face full of sadness and exhaustion, his eyes bloodshot.
His teacher died......
At the most critical moment of the advanced ceremony, the members of the Bloody Hand Gang suddenly appeared and plundered on a large scale. And his most trusted apprentice gave him a fatal blow behind him.
Fei Luo received the news yesterday and hurried back, and the alchemy workshop at this time had been beaten to tatters. There were many apprentices and small workers who were injured. His teacher lay in a pool of blood, his eyes wide with a shock and anger that he could not believe until he died.
And the senior brother of Fei Luo is no longer in sight.
No one knows, why did the Bloody Hand Gang come to plot against an old mage at such a time when they were all enemies?
However, Fei Luo found that all the cash and valuable materials in the alchemy workshop had disappeared, and most of the teacher's collection had been looted.
This was not an impromptu move, it was a deliberate robbery and murder!
Fei Luo has a lot of affection for his teacher, although the old mage is a very typical, indifferent mage character. But the grace of saving lives and getting along for so many years can also be called deep feelings.
The old mage even regarded Fei Luo as his heir.
Although Fei Luo's senior brother is more liked by the old mage in dealing with people, as a mage, the first criterion for selecting disciples is talent. Fei Luo's talent is obviously stronger than his senior brother's.
Fei Luo thought that this might be the reason why the senior brother betrayed the teacher and even killed him. Because he found that his expectations for years were about to be disappointed. But what kind of role does the Bloody Hand Gang play in this?
"Are you all ready?" Charlotte's question interrupted Fat Luo's musings.
Either way, Andy (Fat Luo's brother) needs to pay for his betrayal. But now, a more tricky problem needs to be solved.
Charlotte saw that everyone was fine, so she waved and set off.
The first to enter the sewers were Teemo and the Brambles Vine. They will be tasked with pathfinding. The routes in the sewers are complex, especially the old Helsing sewers on the second level and the natural caves on the third level. It's now a playground for many dangerous creatures.
If you are caught off guard in the narrow underground by a sneak attack, it is undoubtedly very dangerous. So Timo's task is important.
He was followed by Big Brother and the Governor, followed by Charlotte, Fatty, Luna, Firefly, and Alice. The clay stone demon is in the center, and behind it are two fishmen and a slow little soft.
Because the sewer space is limited, both Broken Corner and Hum Haha are left in the system space. Call them again if necessary.
The sewers were dark and damp, and with the limited number of torches in hand, they could only illuminate a small area. In the dark corners that cannot be seen clearly, from time to time there are big rats that are not afraid of people crawling lazily past.
Fat Luo pointed to a big mouse that stood upright on its hind legs and stood up to look at his group, and said, "This is not an ordinary mouse, this is a moonshine mouse." This is a low-level Warcraft. They are usually indistinguishable from rats, but during the full moon, their intelligence becomes very high. Some books claim that the strongest rat king, on a full moon night, can be compared to a child of eight or nine years old......"
The group followed the guidance of Bishop Wesley's modified lantern and quickly passed through the first sewer, found an entrance, and entered the second sewer.
This lantern has been blessed by Bishop Wesley's divine arts, and is currently a Golden Excellence-level equipment. But its function is only to guide the way, and it is temporary. It only lasts less than five hours.
Following the lantern's guidance, Charlotte and the others continued to go deeper into the second sewer. Here, you can start to see the ruins of buildings that have sunk into the ground. The terrain here is particularly complex, with staggered roads and difficult to navigate, and dead ends and loops can occur at every turn.
Suddenly, Charlotte seemed to hear something! He looked at Luna and saw that she was listening, too. At this time, everyone saw that Charlotte had stopped, and they all stopped.
Teemo suddenly ran back and whispered, "Sir, something is approaching!" That's a lot! ”
Red dots are also starting to appear on Charlotte's minimap! Dense little red dots!
Soon, there was a rustling sound in the sewers, like someone was stirring the sand!
When Charlotte saw something approaching, she immediately felt her scalp tingle. He shouted, "Hold the grass!" It's cockroaches! Lots of cockroaches! ”
Cockroaches the size of a fist crawled over from the walls and the ground!
"Carnivorous cockroaches, insects/magical mutant creatures, unemployed.
Notes: Under the interference of some kind of magic potion, the tenacious cockroach has mutated. And now they prefer to eat meat! ”
These big cockroaches are very ugly, swinging their tentacles and six long legs with spikes, and their hideous mouthparts are constantly wriggling, which is very terrifying!
If you magnify the creature tenfold, the insect is definitely the scariest! Now Charlotte thinks that cockroaches are probably the scariest among insects!
"This is a carnivorous cockroach! In the sewers, it is also the existence of a hegemon! "Fei Luo is still very familiar with the city where he has lived for 20 years.
In Helsin, there are countless rumors about sewers. Among them, there are several versions of the story of the carnivorous cockroach.
At this time, you can see the importance of spellcasting in a team! Fei Luo took out something and threw it in his mouth. Because of the darkness, Charlotte didn't see clearly.
Fei Luo chewed twice, and then stuck out his tongue and gasped a few times. And then the slightest haha is endless!
Seeing thousands of cockroaches crawling closer and closer, it was dark and swarthy! Charlotte's scalp is about to explode!
"Can you do it? No, I'm going to call Artoria to do it! ”
"Hiss~Immediately~hiss~Ha......" Fei Luo put his hand to his mouth and formed a trumpet.
"Huh~~~" A large stream of flames was spewed out, the bright golden flame, the temperature was extremely high, just casually burned over, and the cockroaches were burned one after another! Even those who are far away have their tentacles burned!
Faced with an irresistible fire, the cockroaches immediately panicked! Retreating frantically, one by one quickly moving six long legs, running like a desperate race. That's a real deal! Others ripped off their little wings and were about to fly away. But the transparent thin wings can't withstand the heat of the scorching. They fell to the ground and were burned to death!
Fei Luo shook his head slowly, and the flames kept flashing across the walls and ground. In just a few seconds, the cockroaches fled and disappeared.
In fact, except for a few who ran fast, they got into the cracks in the wall and escaped. Most of the rest were burned to death.
The flames erupted from Fei Luo, and the temperature was so high that Xia Luo and the others had to retreat a little farther. Because the roasted face hurts!
"I say......" Charlotte asked, "is this really magic of yours?" How does it feel different? ”
Charlotte didn't feel the magic around Fei Luo, so it felt strange.
"Hehe, this is really not magic in the ordinary sense. It's my own supernatural ability. It should be the ability in the bloodline. Thanks to you! As he spoke, Fei Luo handed Xia Luo something that Fei Luo chewed just now.
It's actually chili!
"This very spicy plant you discovered, I found that it can stimulate my flame bloodline. Right now, my abilities are not stable, and I need to eat chili peppers to motivate me. Speaking of which, this stuff is really spicy! Hiss~"
The group continued on their way, and on the way Fatty told Charlotte about the legend of the carnivorous cockroach.
The most widely circulated and accepted theory now is that these big cockroaches were originally just normal cockroaches. But because there were many mages in old Helsin, there were a lot of magical wastes poured into the sewers every day, and finally the tenacious cockroaches made a magnificent turn - they mutated!
Then there began to be a lot of horror stories about the workers who cleaned the sewers, gnawed to the bones......
Luckily, most of these large cockroaches are found in the second sewer, and no one will come here to die. In fact, the big cockroaches usually eat all kinds of sewer creatures such as rats and small lizards.
At this time, the Helsin sewers have formed a strange ecosystem......
