Chapter 219: The Adventurer Who Broke Into the Underground (I)
Swamp Demons have the word swamp in their name, but their appearance is far from that of a slime-covered dark green swamp monster, and they are just a type of demon that likes to live in swampy terrain.
Similar to most demons, swamp demons have wings behind them, and they have claws as sharp as most demons, as they inevitably get a layer of slime on their bodies due to their long lives in poisonous swamps, and they also have a long-range attack method that spews powerful corrosive slime.
Usually lurking in swamps or other viscous liquids, they will suddenly erupt in the swamp when they encounter an attackable target, catching their opponents off guard.
……
After recalling the information of the swamp demon in his mind again, Wang Xiaoyu began to transmit the insect swarm that had been waiting for a long time in the [Mind Network], and once again passed the plan of this battle to the insect swarm.
In fact, Wang Xiaoyu didn't need to be so solemn at all, because he had been scouting those hundreds of swamp demons for a long time, and the most powerful of these swamp demons was only at the mortal level, and now Wang Xiaoyu was confident that he would single-handedly kill seven in and seven out of the swamp demons.
However, this hunt for the swamp demon is not without difficulty, the crypt occupied by the swamp demon is full of sticky acidic mire, and if ordinary insects rush into it to launch an attack, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties because of this corrosive mire, which is not worth it.
Another thing to be aware of is to prevent these demons from escaping, although the siege of the previous Crypt Demon Invasion was simply and thoroughly, it was inevitable that several Crypt Demons would escape as a result.
Wang Xiaoyu has also been guarding against the news that other demon groups on the ground have been here, and they will invade again. Now, these days have passed, and there is still no movement. Wang Xiaoyu also concluded that the few escaped crypt demons did not spread the news here.
Touched the alloy spear behind him, the last time was lucky. But this time it may not be so lucky, so Wang Xiaoyu's decision is to surround and kill all the swamp demons here, not let one go, and completely prevent the demons from spreading the secret of the swarm here.
……
……
The area where the swamp demon is located is located in the underground of an unknown swamp in the west of the Zephyr Forest, and Wang Xiaoyu just broke through the level lock to level up in that swamp, and it was there that Redhead Ryder discovered a dungeon labyrinth.
At that time, he did not know the name of the labyrinth, because he did not understand the elven script on the stone tablet of the labyrinth, and now that he recalled the shape of the previous words, he could already know the name of the labyrinth - Challenge the Darkness. He also earned the title of 'Dark Explorer' for passing through that labyrinth.
There seems to be a natural crypt beneath the swamp, and the swamp demons must have dug a gap into it, causing the corrosive mire to pour into it, so the swamp demons live there.
Compared to most demons, the swamp demon is a rational demon, although there is no demon with absolute power to rule, but in the more than ten days that he scouted, these swamp demons rarely fight, and even if there is a fight, they will not fight to the death.
Otherwise, without his intervention, these cave demons, which only have a few hundred of them, will naturally die out due to cannibalism.
But the rationality of the swamp demon is only relative. They just don't kill each other, compared to humans and elves, the personalities of these low-level demons are still irritable and impulsive, and Wang Xiaoyu used this characteristic of the demons to encircle and suppress the swamp demons this time.
Lure these demons out of the swamp demons. Then break through the dry underground passages one by one, and finally clear the remaining demons that remain in the mire.
Low-level demons aren't stupid, but they know there's a trap ahead. They also have a hard time suppressing the attack, and it's still Redhead Ryder who is in charge of the bait and taunt mission. As a bait for a long time, Ryder is also familiar with this.
……
……
Look at the scale of the hourglass on the stone table. Wang Xiaoyu knew that it was noon, and this was the sleepiest time of the day for the swamp demon.
Although there is no sunlight underground, it is very suitable for the activities of swamp demons who hate sunlight, but they also take proper breaks throughout the day.
The swamp demon who has just fallen asleep will definitely be provoked when he is woken up, and it is the easiest to fall into the trap he set, and because they can't rest, they will be a little tired and their strength will decrease, so Wang Xiaoyu chose this time to start acting......
However, just as Wang Xiaoyu decided to notify the insect swarm to take action through Lusha's [Mind Network] on the side, a red glow flashed across his alloy helmet.
"Xiao Yin, your stealth ability is getting stronger and stronger...... Wang Xiaoyu smiled and made a sound into the air on the side, and a silver butterfly half a meter in size appeared in midair.
In order to help Xiao Yin practice his stealth ability, Wang Xiaoyu and Xiao Yin made a game of stealth to approach him. Xiao Yin didn't know that Wang Xiaoyu was actually cheating, he could indeed find some clues through the vibration of the air, but it was not obvious that Wang Xiaoyu really knew that Xiao Yin was coming to the kind of blood connection that the "Butterfly Emperor" brought him.
"Emperor, no, there are intruders." Xiao Yin's voice came out.
"Oh? Has another demon come to the ground? You didn't make a move, so the demon who came this time should be very strong. The expression on Wang Xiaoyu's face became serious when he heard this, so his plans for the swamp demon might have to be put on hold for a day......
Hearing Wang Xiaoyu's words, Xiao Yin immediately shook his head and corrected: "Emperor, this time it is not a demon, but a human or an elf, or a dwarf, I don't know what they are." ”
Just like humans look at ordinary reptiles, ordinary humans simply cannot distinguish whether a reptile will grow up to be a moth or a butterfly.
The same is true for bugs, all humanoids look the same, even some of the demons without wings, and the main thing that bugs distinguish between these intruders and whether they are demons is based on their breath.
If you encounter humanoid creatures other than demons, you have to report to him, if the other party has no intention of attacking, don't take the initiative to attack, this is Wang Xiaoyu's instructions to the insect swarm, Xiao Yin quickly explained the general information of those humanoid creatures to Wang Xiaoyu......
……
"Are you saying that these humans are following that passage towards the swamp demons?" Wang Xiaoyu looked at Xiao Yin, and when he saw Xiao Yin nodding, he continued to Lusha, the queen of butterflies on the side: "Lusha, activate the enhanced version of [Mind Network], I want to check the specific information of those human beings in person. ”
Sharing the vision with the insects, Wang Xiaoyu quickly discovered the uninvited guests who entered the underground through the perspective of hundreds of insects in the underground passage, a total of seven people.
An elf, four humans, a lionman, and a hilldwarf to be exact, all dressed in different class attire, look tired and hurried, but walk with unusual caution and cooperation.
It seems that these people should have come here by mistake to avoid the demons on the ground, perhaps using spells similar to [random teleportation], and looking at the nameplates on the chests of these people, Wang Xiaoyu also confirmed the identities of these people.
"Adventurer." Wang Xiaoyu said softly, and then withdrew from Lusha's [Mind Network], according to the color of the adventurer nameplates on these people, he knew that this was a team of adventurers who were half mortal and half elite.
"Emperor, do you want to remind them?" Queen Butterfly Lusha knew that Wang Xiaoyu had a special emotion for human beings, so she made a voice to Wang Xiaoyu at this time.
Wang Xiaoyu's expression under the alloy helmet changed a few times, and after being silent for a long time, he said in a deep voice to Lusha and Xiao Yin, the queen of the butterfly: "No need, just continue to monitor them." (To be continued.) )
