Chapter 50: The Butterfly Catcher (I)

When the sky was slightly bright, Wang Xiaoyu and the red-headed cricket successfully reached the unknown stream again, because Wang Xiaoyu and the red-headed cricket had already walked on this road once, so Wang Xiaoyu knew where to find good prey in the next trip.

After slaughtering a nest of ants to replenish the silk thread and physical strength, Wang Xiaoyu and the red-headed cricket continued to rush upward, Wang Xiaoyu knew that after a short half a day's journey ahead, he would be able to reach a good upgrade location, a dense forest full of vines, and there were thousands of prey that Wang Xiaoyu could easily hunt now - long-eared bats.

Monster: Long-eared Bat (Mole Ant)

Grades: 11-13

Combat effectiveness: negligible

This long-eared bat can provide Wang Xiaoyu with considerable experience, and more than most scorpions and centipedes, Wang Xiaoyu only caught one in a hurry and ate it, and then Wang Xiaoyu did not delay too much because he had to hurry to the Tree of the Wind.

This kind of bat prey gathered together is very suitable for Wang Xiaoyu, unlike ants and wasps, although these long-eared bats also have a large number, but usually after a long-eared bat is attacked, they will not unite together to besiege the powerful enemy, but after their own companions are attacked, they will directly scatter and flee, so Wang Xiaoyu will not be in any danger of catching this kind of bat.

Not only that, but Wang Xiaoyu's predation on this long-eared bat also has an important advantage, that is, to make up for his worst problem so far - his compound eyes have poor eyesight at a slightly distance, and Wang Xiaoyu's eyesight is now increasingly unable to keep up with the growth of his own insect body.

And the long-eared bat that Wang Xiaoyu wants to hunt has a unique ability to perceive the surrounding similar to [Ultrasonic Positioning], as long as this skill is obtained through [Multiple Evolution], Wang Xiaoyu's shortcomings can be made up for a lot.

In that dense forest where vines crawled to form a green cave, there were countless long-eared bats, enough for him to hunt until he could [multi-evolve] skills.

And hunting bats can also provide him with considerable experience to increase his level, although Wang Xiaoyu has a lot of skills at this time, but after being promoted to level 3, he still has some expectations for extracting skills again.

……

After a few hours of hurrying, Wang Xiaoyu successfully came to the vine forest he found last time, and told the red-headed crickets to stay honest, Wang Xiaoyu chose to hunt alone, after all, the red-headed crickets are too small, although the bats are generally hanging upside down to rest during the day, but it is difficult to ensure that the red-headed crickets will not fall into any danger.

[Camouflage Camouflage] activated!

The color of Wang Xiaoyu's body changed like a dead leaf on the ground, and in less than a breath, it turned into a green closer to the vines here, and soon Wang Xiaoyu slowly climbed up the vines here.

【Infrared Sensing】Activated!

Because bats have body temperature, Wang Xiaoyu has an advantage in using infrared vision to observe bats hanging in the distance than the blurred vision of his compound eyes.

Wang Xiaoyu climbed very slowly, trying not to make a sound, and the sleeping bats were not woken up by him......

Burst! Burst!

When Wang Xiaoyu climbed to the right range, he made a sudden move, and two silver silk threads directly stuck the two bats, the two bats let out a huge scream, and the other bats also woke up and flew away, and the two bats could not open their wings because of the silk thread binding and finally fell to the ground.

Bang!

Wang Xiaoyu twisted the body of the worm and launched the [Frost Shield] to jump from the air, and then patched up the silk threads of the two bats that were constantly struggling.

It didn't take long to see that the two bats had been entangled and couldn't move, and the red-headed cricket also came to help Wang Xiaoyu bite it, but obviously it couldn't do any harm to the bats......

Wang Xiaoyu looked at the brave appearance of the red-headed cricket, and recalled the words of the argument between the red-headed cricket and the revenant Yedans, since Wang Xiaoyu killed the bird, the red-headed cricket was no longer timid when it encountered the monster in the future, although it would sometimes retreat and run away, but it did not become trembling again, even when it was swallowed into the chameleon's body.

Now that I think about it, after Wang Xiaoyu tied the red-headed cricket to the mantis sickle and killed the bird, the red-headed cricket has actually changed.

Wang Xiaoyu's chelica shook slightly, and the two bats were quickly bitten off their necks by his chelicera, and as Wang Xiaoyu killed the two bats, the red-headed crickets who also participated in the battle on the side grew again, reaching a size of nearly 6 centimeters, which should have been upgraded again.

When Wang Xiaoyu used [Exploration Technique] to check the information of the red-headed cricket again, the information of the red-headed cricket appeared with a special title - looking up at the sky.

……

The red-headed cricket shook the tentacles on its head, then looked at the corpses of the two bats with an excited face, and urged Wang Xiaoyu: "Big brother, hurry, let's eat!" ”

Wang Xiaoyu didn't seem to hear it, he was still thinking about the new title of red-headed cricket, the title of red-headed cricket is obviously very special and should have special significance.

"Redhead, do you like the sky very much?" Wang Xiaoyu suddenly asked the red-headed cricket.

The red-headed cricket tilted its head to look at Wang Xiaoyu with some doubts, but quickly replied: "Well, I like it, the sky!" ”

"Why?"

"Because I can't fly high, I want to, fly high in the air, feel, the world, it's big, big, big......" The red-headed cricket said to Wang Xiaoyu, and then opened his first pair of feet towards Wang Xiaoyu, and then opened bigger and bigger......

Wang Xiaoyu heard the words of the red-headed cricket and fell into deep thought, and he discovered that in addition to being super lucky, there is another quality that makes the red-headed cricket super lucky, just like Columbus in reality when he goes to explore the New World.

The red-headed cricket is different from Wang Xiaoyu, who has been reborn and has insight, the world in its eyes should be small, but this red-headed cricket is different, he knows and wants to take the initiative to explore and feel the wider world outside.

Wang Xiaoyu knew that this should be the reason why the red-headed cricket won the title and looked up to the sky, but the specific effect of this title is still unknown.

……

……

Shaking his head, Wang Xiaoyu quickly continued to eat with the red-headed cricket......

Wang Xiaoyu was constantly hunting bats all day, and from the afternoon to the evening, Wang Xiaoyu caught seven or eight long-eared bats, but although they were all eaten in his stomach, Wang Xiaoyu still did not evolve to obtain skills, but his experience bar continued to rise and was close to level 3, and he could immediately draw skills again.

However, just as Wang Xiaoyu was about to take advantage of the approaching sunset to hunt two more bats, his [Infrared Perception] suddenly saw two creatures with abnormal heat in the distance passing through the opposite bank of the downstream of the stream, and then walked in his direction.

"Mr. James, how far do you have to go?"

"Learn to be patient, Tom, you can't be a good mage if you can't hold your breath like this."

"But ......"

"Tom, you're using [Meditation] while walking now."

"Oh."

Wang Xiaoyu quickly hid in the dead leaves, and as the two blurred figures in his compound eyes became clear, the conversation from the two people entered Wang Xiaoyu's mind, and it was the [human language] that he could understand.

NPC: James (Warriors)

Race: Human

Class: Level 23 Elemental Mage

Combat effectiveness: 31

NPC: Tom (mortal)

Race: Human

Class: Level 11 Trainee Mage

Combat effectiveness: 6

After using the [Exploration Technique], the information of the two characters appeared in Wang Xiaoyu's mind, and then the two humans continued to walk towards the stream, Wang Xiaoyu did not have any thoughts about the two humans, and soon the figures of the two humans disappeared from Wang Xiaoyu's sight, and the thermal sight in the [Infrared Perception] also disappeared soon after.
