Chapter 39: The Great God Takes You into the Centipede Cave
As soon as it was dawn the next day, they all got up. The unscrupulous inquisitor was the first to get up, packed up his things, Ye Zilan went to settle the account, and they rode on their horses and rushed towards the dungeon cave.
They walked northwest along the road, and when they reached a mountainous area, the cave was very close, and they tied their horses to the stone pillars below and drove straight into the cave.
To the northwest of Mengzhong, the highlands were formed by the erosion of water and soil to the south in the past, and people opened a road from here to the top.
And if you follow the road all the way to the top of the heights, you will see a deep cave inside the dark dungeon they mentioned.
Our three warriors tied their horses to the natural stone pillars next to the cave, even though He Ming was very worried about the safety of the horses, and the people who would come here would not actually touch them. Shabak's fame is still very intimidating.
After entering the cave, they already saw traces of battle. In the gloomy and dark cavern, the damp and slippery ground is littered with large, scary insect corpses:
There are hornet-like ones, worm-like ones, and centipedes, and the common denominator is that they are all big and scary, and they are completely the size that many bugs should have.
Ye Zilan took out the map and looked at it and said: "Follow the map and go north first, there is a relatively safe and spacious road with not many monsters, and if you go straight east and turn this way, the route is several times shorter, but the road is narrow and difficult to walk and very dangerous." ”
"It seems that the first person to come took that long road, and we can't go now, and since that terrifying force has appeared, it should be almost dangerous on either side." ”
Ye Zilan said: "I think the same way, the shortcut may be more difficult, let's take the shortcut and hurry up, I already have a very bad feeling." ”
He Ming didn't have as strong a sense of crisis as theirs, but when he saw that the expression of the guard in the cave had even become a little serious, he didn't say much and followed honestly.
At first they couldn't see anything, and the road was a normal cave, but the Inquisitor once again summoned the Divine Beast, which emitted a dazzling light all over its body, illuminating a large area, allowing them to see the road far away without using torches.
It's just that the more he goes, the more uneasy He Ming feels. After a little more walking, they finally began to move, and they heard all kinds of sounds like insects or bones rubbing, rustling, or creaking.
But the three of them were not frightened at all, and the divine beast still took the lead, and the three of them continued to move forward without hesitation. Until a few bugs bigger than a human suddenly came out of the darkness! Two jumping bees and a giant worm suddenly rushed out of the darkness that the divine beast had never illuminated, which still made He Minghan's hair stand on end!
But they were seasoned warriors, and they weren't affected by the horrible and disgusting creatures. He Ming greeted the jumping bee, while the Guardian and the Divine Beast each faced a giant worm.
Although the jumping bee does not seem to have strong intelligence, because of the natural advantages of insects, it is not only extremely agile, but also full of weapons, every arthrop is extremely sharp, and the huge jaws are as sharp as a knife! He Ming made a move and realized that he had to use all his strength to gain an advantage.
And in this kind of space in the narrow cave, He Ming's excellent capital body method cannot be fully exerted, and he can only dodge attacks in a small area. So he gave it all his attention, and finally began to use the Attack or Assassination Sword Qi to engage it with every move.
Luckily, although the hopping bee is huge and powerful to attack, it doesn't have a flexible brain, and can only pounce straight back.
The extremely agile He Ming easily avoided the direction of its attack, and then the sword qi could directly deal damage to it.
Finally, after avoiding a rash pounce by the jumping bee, He Ming stabbed off its head with a single assassination.
When he looked back, Ye Zilan didn't make a move at all, and the Judge and his Divine Beast had killed both of them.
"This is disgusting! I'm going to throw away this superb ghost robe! Seeing that he was splashed with worm mucus, the interrogator couldn't help but complain.
Ye Zilan said coldly: "This kind of enemy, your divine beast is enough to solve it, why do you bother to go up and do it." ”
The interrogator said, "Ah, why didn't I think of it? You're a genius! ”
Ye Zilan ignored him anymore and just continued to move forward. At this time, He Ming noticed that the jewel headdress on her head still emitted a faint purple light in the dark, and he couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart.
In the dark, a few hopping bees still occasionally come out, and giant worms come out, and the three people who have already dealt with them can be said to be able to solve them with little effort:
Now it's enough to just let the beasts get on. Bug attacks have no effect on the beasts, and the flames sprayed by the beasts have a miraculous effect on creatures in the darkness. He Ming couldn't help but wonder, would the attack of the divine beasts make the inquisition depleted?
But now the road under their feet is no longer so solid, but even more slippery. Some yin-loving insects like to live in this environment, and He Ming couldn't help but be more vigilant.
In the sound of tearing and pulling, several insects crawled out that made He Ming's hair stand on end: centipedes with barbs on each foot and black fat maggots nearly a meter tall and rolling rapidly!
These things are suppressed by the human senses no matter how powerful they are, and when He Ming gritted his teeth and prepared to fight to the death like an angry lion, Ye Zilan said, "You guys stand back." ”
The tone was calmer than any time He Ming had heard him speak, which made He Ming stunned, but the interrogator retreated to the back more obediently than the students who heard the teacher speak, making him feel that it should be right to do it.
Ye Zilan chanted a spell, and the magical energy in her body flowed back into her body, and her eyes also emitted blue light, and then several electric lights led into the black fat maggot.
The maggots stopped rolling in this direction, and after a pause, they rolled and slammed into the centipedes next to them with all their might!
While slamming and biting, although the centipede was poisonous, there was nothing to do about the black maggot, He Ming watched from the side, and it didn't take long for the centipedes that crawled over to be killed by these black maggots.
He Ming had learned this spell when he was in Ginkgo Village, it was called the Light of Temptation, which could control some weak monsters, but no one could really master it at that time, and now looking at the performance of this person in front of him, he really feels like he has seen God.
Ye Zilan had already stopped casting, and the black maggots rolled behind Ye Zilan with a grunt, following Ye Zilan like a long-trained pet, obediently.
He Ming and the judge were very careful to bypass the route of the baby maggot.
The interrogator said: "You don't have to be surprised when you encounter something more terrifying than this, this Grandma Ye Zilan is much more terrifying than these little monsters. ”
Ye Zilan still didn't pay attention to this guy, and said:
"These maggots lack normal thinking, they are commanded by some powerful will, and they can easily be controlled synchronously with electricity. It's much less attrition to let them fight than if we did it ourselves, I can control a total of five, and now there are three here, and if there are any more in the front, let me control five and you can do whatever you want. ”
It's easy to control them, and none of the many mages in Ginkgo Mountain Village have done it well! He Ming's head was about to explode.
The interrogator said: "There are such powerful insects, we can take care of the lighting, what else can we do!" The beast lights up and opens the way! ”
I don't know if the divine beast he summoned has spiritual intelligence, He Ming feels that if there is spiritual intelligence, this divine beast is either a joke like him or has been numb.
After a little more walking along the smooth but slippery road, more and more bugs began to come out and attack them.
After Ye Zilan finished controlling the five black maggots, with them taking the lead, the battle became much easier, and the maggots who were not afraid of poison or stinging crashed over, leaving those insects with nowhere to go.
And when the number of insects that attacked them began to increase, He Ming and Xian Gu could easily solve them under the cover of black maggots.
Of course, you have to be careful to avoid the maggot baby's line of action, these rampaging guys won't look at whether there is a judge and He Ming on the road.
And the divine beast is also unstoppable, in this dangerous environment, the battle has to go so smoothly, so that He Ming can't help but think of how terrible those Zuma monsters are.
I don't know how far I have walked in the dark, and according to the Guardian, he can judge the direction through the divine beast, and the direction can be followed by the map, and there will be no mistake.
As they stepped into the new terrain, no longer the slippery land, they began to relent.
Now the ground is neither the land of the entrance, nor as slippery as before, but as if treading on the hardest granite, which is as smooth as polished, but with a few marks on it as if it had been chiseled, and needless to say, the creatures here will be completely different from the ones before.
At this time, He Ming raised his vigilance again. But when you get to this kind of place, there are no other ideas, and you can't go back, so you can only go all the way to the dark.
Ye Zilan suddenly spoke: "Do you feel anything?" ”
The interrogator said, "How can it not be? Some kind of powerful energy has enveloped the entire space, and my mana has been suppressed. ”
He Ming tried to feel it, but he didn't feel anything abnormal, and he didn't feel a little depressed, but he didn't relax for a moment, and he was still on alert.
At this time, the sound of tearing and pulling in their ears gradually became smaller, and a kind of hard object rubbing like a click began to sound, and the three of them couldn't help but raise their vigilance.
The light began to run out of light, just like in the depths of the mine at that time, He Ming felt that the light emitted by the divine beast began to dim.
The gradually decreasing visibility made all three of them more vigilant, and finally the first enemies in the new environment began to attack!
Sensing several different bugs approaching, the black maggots took the brunt of the attack, and they rolled quickly into the attacking enemy.
He Ming and the others could clearly see that there were two or three hopping bees and worms in the front, and there was no threat at all under the bite of the black maggot.
Just as He Ming breathed a sigh of relief, a huge and strange insect rose into the air, attacked it with a bang, and cut a black maggot into two pieces at once!
