Wren had seen a living scarab beetle for the first time.

Their appearance is similar to that of the "scarab" of the previous life, but they are magnified countless times, even the smallest scarab beetle is more than a meter long, has six legs on its abdomen, and the legs are long and hard, and the front pair is extremely thick, like a pair of sharp claws, which are used to dig through sand or shred enemies.

The carapace of the scarab beetle is like a golden cast, shining golden in the sun, very dazzling.

Their abdomen is also covered in a hard cuticle, which is very strong at a glance and difficult for ordinary transcendents to penetrate.

Hundreds of scarab beetles lurk beneath the desert, and if someone breaks into the ruins and falls into a swarm, with their hideous mouthparts and strength, they will be torn to shreds in the blink of an eye.

The sun crystal has a huge attraction to the scarabs, all the scarabs pounce on the crystal, densely packed together, you scramble, and even bite each other, not even noticing the enemies not far away. But they were too crowded and about the same size, and they couldn't find a mid-level scarab.

Dejiko had some difficulty, with his strength he could easily destroy all the scarabs, but he was unwilling to do so.

They all have the power of the Light, and the Sunwalkers don't want to kill them.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Wren flashing to his side, thinking that Wren was going to make a move, so he hurriedly said, "Lord Lord, don't kill them all." ”

"No, it won't. ”

Wren shook his head, he didn't do this kind of killing chickens and eggs.

Most of the scarabs are beginner-level, only a small number of middle-level, if they are all killed, where will they find the scarab demon soul above the middle level in the future?

Dejiko reassured and thought about what to do.

The two middle-level scarab demon souls that they hunted before were actually met by accident, and they broke away from the group of scarabs and killed them easily. With so many scarabs in front of them, with their terrifying biting power, even legendary transcendents who fall into the swarm must be gnawed clean.

He won't die, but once he does, he will inevitably be injured by mistake.

Soon, a sturdy high-level scarab beetle grabbed the Sun Crystal, repelled the opponent around him, and waved his forelimbs to burrow into the sand.

"Don't let it run!"

Dejiko shouted, the Sun Crystal is also one of Attas's precious specialties, it is not easy to find, it must be used to activate the teleportation array, and there is not much left in his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, a thick lightning bolt erupted beside him.

Crackle!

In the not very loud thunder, the thick arc spanned a distance of nearly two hundred meters, accurately hitting the scarab beetle, producing a paralyzing effect, the sun crystal in its mouth fell, and the insect swarm began a new round of scramble, completely ignoring the enemies in the distance.

Dejiko breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Wren had not forgotten not to make too much noise so as not to attract sandworms.

"Lord Lord......"

"It's okay, just leave it to me. Wren nodded slightly.

The Soul Eye had already been scanned, locking on the mid-tier scarabs in the swarm, and there were three in total. In addition, there are two high-level scarabs, which are stronger and have more elements, but the Spear Wing Knight can't be fused, and there is no point in killing them.

He visually measured the distance, opened the interface of his phone, and looked at the element icon of "Electric Claw Technique".

The electric claw technique of the five rings can catch targets about 100 meters away at most, but they can't reach the insect swarm, and getting closer will alarm them and attract siege.

"There is just enough power to improve the ring. ”

Wren threw his soul power into the electric claw technique, and the progress bar under the icon was quickly pushed, consuming more than thirty grids of power, and the progress bar was filled in a few seconds, and the spell was raised to six rings.

Then, he reached out for the swarm.

A giant claw made of lightning flew out in an instant, extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it fell into the swarm and grabbed a scarab beetle that didn't look much different, paralyzing it and dragging it back.

When the scarab beetle flew upside down, Dejiko had already made out the difference.

It was slightly larger than the other scarabs, and it was a little darker in color, it was a mid-level scarab, but the difference was not obvious, and it was unknown how Wren found it among the hundreds of swarms, and it was amazing to grab it and pull it back with precision.

In mid-air, a barrier of holy light appeared outside the scarab's carapace, and its six legs were fangs and claws, trying to break free.

However, the Six Rings spell was not so easy to break free, and the paralyzing effect also prevented it from exerting its full power.

In an instant.

The scarab beetle landed in front of the two of them, and Dejiko took off his one-handed hammer and smashed it with one hammer.

Bang!

The power of a legendary high-level Sunwalker is by no means something that a mid-level scarab can resist. Even if Dejiko didn't use all his strength, the one-handed hammer comparable to a two-handed hammer still easily smashed through the Holy Light Barrier and the hard carapace, and his body was flattened and deformed, and he died in an instant.

Wren took out a soul stone and pasted it on the corpse.

The soul stone turned golden, and there was a beetle-like demon soul inside.

"The first. ”

Wren put away the soul stone, did not stop, raised his hand and flew out with another electric claw technique, and caught the second scarab beetle, which was also mid-level.

Dejiko slashes and kills with a hammer again, and Wren ingests the demon's soul.

The two cooperated tacitly, and in one go, they harvested the demon souls of three middle-level scarabs in less than half a minute. The fourth electric claw technique flew out, and it was not the scarab beetle that was caught, but the sun crystal. The swarm of insects that had lost their crystals spun around like flies without a head, then scattered and re-burrowed into the sand.

Wren catches the Sun Crystal and gives it to Dejiko.

"Is there only three?" the minotaur asked.

"Well, no. Wren nodded, "Your Excellency, you can search the other scarab nests in the ruins. ”

Dejiko was a little stunned, not understanding how Wren knew the number of mid-rank scarabs, but seeing that he was so sure, he didn't question it and began to continue searching around the ruins.

A few minutes later, he found another scarab beetle's nest.

The two of them repeated the same trick, using the sun crystal as a bait to attract the swarm out, diverting their attention, and then from a safe distance, one was responsible for grabbing the target, and the other was responsible for killing the demon soul, which was relaxed and happy.

The Ultramarines and Sunwalkers watched from afar, and there was no chance to make a move.

In just over half an hour, Wren and Dejiko had searched the ruins and obtained the demon souls of nine mid-level scarabs.

"Go to the next ruin. Wren said with satisfaction.

The team started again.

Dejiko rode on the Kodo Beast and said in a low voice, "Lord Lord, in my experience, not every ruin has so many scarab beetles, some ruins don't even have one, but are occupied by other monsters. ”

Wren understood what he meant, "So we might have to go to more ruins?"

"Yes. Dejiko replied, "The ruins I know of are about twenty, and it may take more than half of them to gather the fifty demon souls needed by the lord, and you have to take a long detour......

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry. Wren didn't wait for him to finish before saying it didn't matter.

Dejiko thought to himself, "But I'm in a hurry," and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Wren read his mind and pretended not to know. Reslin is still making a teleportation array, this time it is different from before, it is a dimensional teleportation array, which is more complicated and time-consuming, it will take at least half a month to complete, and he will have to delay the time a little longer.

Three days later.

The group walked in the desert, and the four hooves of the Kodomon stepped on the yellow sand, making a dull sound.

On the horizon, the sun, which never sets, emits heat and roasts the bullheads to dry their mouths. After staying in the desert for several days in a row, even after resting a few times, their stamina and physical strength were extremely good, but their bodies were inevitably tired, and their spirits seemed a little sluggish.

Wren built a pergola with his hands and looked out at the sand dunes in front of him, where the ruins of the Kingdom of God loomed in the desert miles away.

This is the fifth ruin found.

The three ruins found in the past few days, as Dejiko said, did not harvest as expected, and there are currently only twenty-three demon souls of mid-level scarab beetles in total.

But beyond the Demon Soul, he has other gains.

On their way to find the ruins, the party was attacked three times, first by desert trolls and two later by mantismen. Especially yesterday, a tribe of mantis people not far away poured out of the nest, more than 300 mantis people, like huge insects whose body size is magnified many times, wielding blade-like forelimbs, surging from all directions like a tide.

However, the Ultramarines give them devastating blows with blasters.

The exploding bomb exploded after penetrating the bodies of several mantis people, and the enemies fell in pieces, and none of the mantis people could rush to within 100 meters, including the legendary mantis leader, who was also shot in the head.

The battle lasted only three minutes before it ended.

The Mantis fled in a hurry, leaving countless stumps in the desert, and in the end none of them escaped.

After confirming that the gods that the mantis people believed in were not powerful and could not descend from the plane, Wren immediately and unceremoniously devoured their souls, causing the soul power pool to skyrocket to one-third!

He looked at the number 348 displayed in the soul power pool, so much power, it can improve many elements.

"Keep it for now, save more soul power and go back and distribute it. ”

Moments later, the ruins arrived.

The Ultramarines and Sunwalkers consciously stopped in the distance, and Wren and Dejiko jumped off the Kodomon and walked closer to the ruins.

Dejiko walked around the perimeter of the ruins in a small half circle, a look of surprise on his face.

"What's wrong?" Wren asked.

"The power of the holy light in this ruin fluctuates extremely strongly, much stronger than the previous ones, the scarab must have a lot of mathematics, please look there, lordship, please look ......there," Dejiko pointed to three or four places in the ruins, "There are so many pores, it means that there is a scarab beetle's nest underneath, and they are all about to be connected." ”

"That's a time-saver. Wren said happily.

Dejiko was also very pleased, took out the sun crystal and injected the power of holy light, and said, "Let's start." With that, he threw the crystal far away and dropped it on a piece of sand.

With the crystal as the center, the yellow sand within a radius of 100 meters boiled, and countless scarabs burrowed out of the ground.

Wren was familiar with the scene.

But he soon sensed that something was wrong, and not far from the crystal, the desert churned for a few seconds, and then suddenly collapsed. The area of the collapse was very large, as if a hole appeared out of thin air underneath, and then countless yellow sand was lifted up and flew into the sky.

In the yellow sand, a huge body crawled out.

"Such a big scarab!"

Dejiko's pupils shrank, and he screamed.

This is indeed a scarab, but its body is dozens of times larger than other scarabs, its round body is covered by a gold-like carapace, more than ten meters from head to tail, and a pair of forelimbs alone is more than four meters long, like two huge sharp blades.

The Eye of the Soul reveals that this is a legendary scarab!

There are more than 20 elements in its soul, more than half of which are holy light spells and abilities, "strength" reaches level ten, and there are also level five "hard carapace", level eight "tenacity", super element "child of light", etc., which belong to the top strength in the first level of legends.

The Legendary Scarab scarab swooped down on the glowing Sun Crystal with a nimble speed that didn't match its sheer size.

The other scarabs avoided it, not daring to compete with it.

Wren and Dejiko were still hesitating to do anything when the Sun Crystal was bitten into their mouths, clattered and chewed into pieces, and swallowed into their stomachs.

Then, it turned to look at the two of them, a sharp hiss.

"It can find us. ”

Before Dejiko's words fell, he saw the legendary scarab beetle open its hard shell on its back, stretch out a pair of translucent pale gold elytra, vibrate at a high speed at a frequency that was inaudible to the naked eye, and flew straight towards him.

At the same time, the sand of the entire ruins was churning.

Countless scarab beetles burrowed out of the sand, and they seemed to be able to understand the sound waves emitted by the legendary scarab beetles, accurately spotting the enemies outside the ruins, and they all flapped their wings and flew up, converging into a terrifying insect cloud in the sky, overwhelming the sky.

The sound of buzzing wings mixed with the bite of mouthparts is creepy.

"it!"

Wren blurted out a foul word, and subconsciously wanted to open any door to avoid its front for the time being, but when he saw the team not far away, he suddenly changed his mind.

The Ultramarines and Minotaurs are ready for battle and have no fear, but the Kodo Beasts under their seats can't escape the devouring of the swarm, and I'm afraid that it won't be a few minutes before only the skeleton remains. Without the Kodo Beasts and the food and water they carried, their group could not support much, so they had to leave Atas early.

"Chief, we're keeping the swarm at bay. ”

"Don't come over to the others, immediately back off, the Ultramarines pull away and shoot. Wren quickly gave the order and shouted loudly.

Dejiko also reacted.

He raised his large square shield and hammer, roared angrily, blessed himself with a layer of holy light, and stomped on the sand with both hooves, his tall body bowed, and the horns charged towards the legendary scarab.

The Minotaur charged extremely fast, but Wren was faster than him.

His mind flew, inspiring a bloody rage that made his body swell twice, and at the same time, a war hammer was held in his hand, and with a snap, it turned into golden lightning, and landed on the top of the legendary sandworm's head in the blink of an eye, raising the war hammer high, and slamming it down!

Bang!

A thunderbolt exploded on a sunny day, and the war hammer was like a bamboo, like a bubble bursting, smashing through the barrier of holy light of the legendary scarab, its steel-like shell was also like paper paste, it was smashed through the dent by a hammer, and the brain collapsed in an instant, and the huge body fell headlong and fell into the sand.

Countless lightning bolts erupted from the warhammer, sweeping across the space within a hundred meters, leaving no dead ends, and all scarabs hit by lightning instantly turned to ashes, emptying a large area of the sky.

On the ground, Dejiko charged and crashed into the corpse of the legendary scarab, looked up, and was stunned.
