In the middle of the damp, muddy and densely vegetated tropical rainforest, a chase is taking place.

The Dragon Bard Mercenary Group had been in urgent pursuit for more than six minutes, and the distance between the two sides had been reduced to less than 100 meters.

The main reason is that there are two NPCs who have little combat effectiveness among them, and their speed is not fast at all, and they can't get rid of the chasing soldiers in the rear. Fortunately, they chose to return the way they came, at least they didn't need to expend as much effort to clear the way as they came.

And thanks to the D-class ammunition "smoke grenade" made by Fengluo himself, it played a great role along the way.

Every once in a while, the wind fell and threw one behind him, and the thick smoke that rose not only blocked the road, but also caused the people of the Dragon Yin Mercenary Group to delay a lot of time because they were afraid that someone would ambush behind the smoke.

They would have wanted to get around the smoke grenade directly, but that would have to re-open the road, which would not be much worse than waiting for the smoke to clear.

In fact, although there were twenty people chasing after the Dragon Bard mercenary group, in terms of their strength, it was not impossible for the two sides to win if they fought.

But the problem is that it will definitely take some time to deal with these people, and if they fight close to the military base, the other side delays for a while, and the people they support will be able to arrive quickly.

Therefore, Fengluo and they have been choosing to "escape" for the first time, and they are not ready to fight back for the time being, because at least they have to pull the opponent's people farther away from the base.

However, the plan still couldn't catch up with the change, because at this moment, the two NPC crew members who were in charge of reconnaissance suddenly stared at the scout instrument in their hands at the same time.

"There are plenty of signs of biological activity twenty meters ahead!"

Yes, two, and now there are two NPC crew members in the party.

Because the NPC crew member who was originally arranged to guard at the gate of the base, after discovering the people of the Dragon Bard Mercenary Group, immediately contacted the Red Queen through the communicator (NPCs also have communicators, and specific channels can communicate with players), but because of the signal blocking inside the base, he couldn't get in touch.

Then the NPC crew wisely chose to go behind the wall that borders the rainforest, and after seeing the wind fall and come out, they returned to the party.

"Monsters?"

Hearing the words of the two NPC crew members, everyone was stunned.

The Scout Instruments in Wars have different effects when used against players and monsters.

Generally speaking,As long as it is a monster with no obvious hiding ability,It can be detected by reconnaissance instruments within the reconnaissance range,And if you can scan it face-to-face,You can get monster information。

However, when facing the player and some humanoid NPCs, the effective distance of the reconnaissance will be relatively much smaller, and it can only detect signs of life, and cannot get the player's specific information.

In addition, scouts not only have reconnaissance capabilities, but also counter-reconnaissance capabilities.

With the jamming ability of the reconnaissance instrument, it can affect the display of the opponent's reconnaissance instrument within a certain range.

This is also the reason why most of the squads in "Chronicles" have Scouts.

Of course, this kind of shielding effect is not absolutely successful, but depends on the probability of success of the reconnaissance capabilities of both sides.

As for the level of reconnaissance ability, it is mainly affected by two aspects, one is the level of reconnaissance instruments, and the other is the proficiency of reconnaissance skills.

Among them, the reconnaissance instrument is the key, because compared with the reconnaissance technique, which can be used to be effective, the reconnaissance instrument can maintain the reconnaissance ability for a long time.

As a result, the price of a good Scout may even be more expensive than the Master's Energy Converter (Staff).

The two NPCs' scouts are undoubtedly mediocre, but the object they detect is not the player, but the monsters that gather together to exude a strong health response.

Judging from the situation displayed by the reconnaissance instrument, the number of monsters is at least hundreds, densely packed in an area in front of them.

Most of the monsters are not large, only about a foot, but there are a few of them, and the length reaches more than a meter.

It looks a bit like a snake on the outside, but its body is much wider than that of a snake, and it doesn't move to their side, so it doesn't seem to be very perceptive.

"That position, it seems like the place where we killed the python before!"

The Panther's professionally trained memory allows him to remember what was going on in that area from his surroundings.

"Detour!"

The Red Queen hesitated for a moment, then immediately made a decision!

In this case, they don't have time to entangle with the monster.

Although it was a detour, it was not possible to go too far after all, so everyone worked together more than ten meters away from the area where the monsters gathered, and quickly opened up a new road.

At the same time, the wind fell on the detour and threw a smoke bomb, so that even if the other party caught up, it was not easy to tell which way they were taking.

Then, just in case, Fengluo also specially turned on the "Rapid Sneaking" skill, carefully moved forward a few steps, and cut open the broad leaves that blocked the view to see what the monster in front of him was.

As a result, the scene that caught his eyes made his head feel a little numb for a while.

The mutant python that was more than ten meters long that they had originally killed had now turned into a withered snake body that had lost all its blood, and on the body of the snake and the ground where the blood flowed, a mollusk was densely wriggling.

Vampire locusts!

This is a very common insect in the rainforest, but it is very intimidating at this time.

The grasshopper, which was originally the size of a finger, grew to a shocking point after sucking the blood from the giant python's corpse.

The smallest of the locusts in front of me was about a foot long, and the largest was more than a meter long, and hundreds of them were densely packed together and intertwined with each other.

Moreover, the bodies of the grasshoppers, which were more than one meter long, actually grew brown patterns similar to those of giant pythons, and at the same time, among the hundreds of sharp teeth in the open round mouth, there was also a blue forked letter.

Wisely, Fengluo stepped back with light feet, catching up with the rest of the men who had already diverted.

"Old style? What a situation! ”

The big pineapple's face was a little curious, and he didn't forget to ask Fengluo when he was in a hurry.

"It's better not to say it, because you don't want to see that, and you're probably going to feel disgusting." Fengluo shook his head.

"Cut, brother hasn't seen any scenes, how can it be disgusting!" The big pineapple is unimpressed.

Soon, however, his face changed.

Because the newly opened passage is not far from the original road, and there happens to be a place in the middle where the vegetation is particularly low, so everyone enters through the gap between the grass and trees and sees the scene where the original python corpse is located.

"Phew!"

Several players gasped, obviously just a game, but this scene was undoubtedly disgusting and shocking.

Even the big pineapple, not to mention it, has a layer of goosebumps on its body.

"Viral infection! Those locusts were infected by the mutated evolution virus in the body of the python, and they possessed the genes of the python and developed the characteristics of the python. ”

Only Lynn's expression remained unchanged at all, and instead she lifted her black-rimmed glasses and came to a scientific conclusion.

"But it's too fast...... Isn't it six hours for a viral infection? ”

Fengluo remembers that when he was infected by the Evolution Virus, the system prompted that it would take six hours to complete the infection.

However, after seeing that these grasshoppers actually grew some python characteristics, he sincerely prayed in his heart, hoping that the unknown medicine that Lin had injected him before would really work, or that the system would not deliberately play with him.

"The species are different. The grasshopper, a low-level creature that completely sucks blood, sucks a large amount of python blood in its body, and it is easy to fuse and evolve the virus! ”

Lin was still very calm, and even raised her hand to press the device on her glasses to record the scene in front of her.

"Hurry up and get out, these locusts look disgusting!"

The white crescent moon is really as white as paper, and Fengluo believes that if she sees this situation in reality, she will definitely vomit with disgust.

In fact, Bing Liuli, another person with dense phobia, had already covered his mouth and turned his head to the side after seeing this situation, not daring to continue looking at it at all.

Even the red queen, who had always been cold, although her face was still collapsing at this time, the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously.

So as soon as the words of the white crescent moon came out, everyone decided to walk immediately, after all, there were pursuers behind them.

"Wait!"

Fengluo suddenly had a change of mind at this time.

"Maybe we can use the situation in this place to fight back!"
