Chapter 497: Chewing Demon Island (3)

After deciding that they could not take the aerial route, the five of them stepped into the dense forest next to the beach.

From the imagination to the front of the road, Uncle Waste Chai followed, and then the rear were Honghu, Feng Bujue and the young master of the traces. The group overcame thorns and thorns and walked slowly towards the center of the island.

The first step of the main quest is time-limited, which is a good thing. As you can deduce from this, the Temple of Faith isn't that far from where the players started, at least theoretically...... It can be reached in less than three hours.

"Is it possible...... That temple is close to the shoreline? In fact, we don't need to go deep into the island at all, just walk along the beach to find it. After walking for a while, the young master of the trace department had a whim and asked.

"Yes." Feng Bujue replied with a smile, "But...... If that is the case, a new question will arise...... "should we go left or right when we are on the beach?" ”

"Hmm......" Traces was a little confused by the question, and after hesitating for two seconds, he replied, "You're raising the bar, right?" ”

"It's not." Before Feng Bujue could answer, Honghu rushed to say, "The crazy brother is right, there is no difference between going left or right or entering the island. He paused when he said this, stretched out his hand and scratched his neck, "We don't have a map, we don't get any hints, and we're lucky to go wherever we go." ”

Brother Jue took over and said, "However, judging by experience and common sense, the probability of the temple on the island is higher than that on the seaside. He pointed to the whimsy ahead, "Brother Pony's first reaction was to enter the island, so ...... I'll ......" where his words came to an abrupt end.

In the next second, Feng Bujue's expression changed and he shouted; "Don't move!"

The others didn't know who he was talking to, and the four of them all stood up at once.

"Honghu, don't move." Feng Bujue answered in a firm, calm voice.

"What's wrong?" Honghu replied nervously, at this moment, he was like a sculpture, his body was almost completely still, only his mouth was spitting out words.

"There's something on the back of your neck." When Feng Bujue said this, he had already stepped forward and stood behind Honghu.

The other three knew that it had nothing to do with them, so they breathed a sigh of relief and turned their eyes over.

"Hmm...... It's strange......" Feng Bujue just wanted to stretch out his hand, but stopped again.

"What exactly?" Honghu still kept his composure, and by this time he had realized that there was a reason why his neck was itching.

"It should be a locust ......," Feng Bujue continued.

"Listen to your tone...... It's not your average locust. Honghu said.

"Yes." Feng Bujue said, "Because I can't see it......"

"What do you mean?" Honghu said again.

"I can see the wound on your neck squirming and oozing blood...... Feng Bujue replied, "but I can't see anything sucking your blood......" he leaned a little closer, "I'm just judging from the shape of the wound...... Guess it's a locust. ”

"Transparent locusts?" Uncle Waste Wood answered.

"No...... Surely it is not transparent...... Honghu himself denied, "if the locust is transparent, then when my blood enters its body, its outline will be revealed. ”

"And what is in front of us, blood is sucked in, but it is not visible." Feng Bujue continued Honghu's words, "Hmm...... Let's call it a ghost locust. ”

"Is it time for a name?" Honghu replied quickly.

Obviously, Honghu was already in a hurry. People are like this, there are some things, I don't have any special feelings when I don't know, but after I know it...... It is like a thorn in the back and a fishbone in the throat.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Feng Bujue said, he actually tilted his head again, and sniffed the back of Wen Honghu's neck with his nose, "Well, the smell is slightly fishy, it is indeed a locust." ”

"Hey...... What are you doing...... What is it like to prepare it as food? The trace department squinted at Brother Jue and said, to be honest, if Feng Bujue really ate the "ghost locust", the trace department would not be too surprised.

"Just double-checked." Brother Jue continued, "What if it's something else?" As he spoke, he took out the [Composite Anti-Gravity Catapult] from his bag," the leech said...... Forced peeling is not appropriate, and the mouthparts break under the skin, which may cause infection. ”

Buzz -

With the sound of the catapult activating, the wound on the back of Honghu's neck loosened, and blood ran down his skin, indicating that the leech had been stripped from its neck.

"With this gravitational device, there won't be a similar problem." Feng Bujue picked up the catapult and glanced at Honghu's wound again, "Hmm...... Judging by your wounds, this one is very large, curled up as a lump, and may be ten centimeters long when unfolded. ”

"Whew...... I was careless, too. Honghu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly covered the wound with his hand to stop the bleeding, "I only felt a little itchy, and I didn't pay attention to the survival value at all." He paused for two seconds, "It's okay...... The losses were not significant, with a total loss of only 7 ...... I just don't know how long this thing has been haunting me. ”

"The problem hasn't been solved yet." Feng Bujue said with a strange expression, "I thought about it again...... Since this locust can interact with us on a physical level, it doesn't seem accurate to call it a 'ghost'. ”

"Still struggling with the name?" "It doesn't matter at all. ”

"He's not obsessed with names." Honghu lifted his glasses and continued, "It's about the nature of this creature. He thought for a few seconds, and then said an idea, "Could it be...... Does it change the color of the body surface according to the surrounding environment? ”

"Chameleon?" After listening to it for a long time, he finally interjected a sentence.

"It's much more powerful than evasion (the scientific name for chameleon)." Feng Buyi continued, he raised his arm and aimed the catapult at a tree trunk next to him (the composite catapult can turn on the suction and lighting functions at the same time), "Look, there should be a grasshopper in front of my catapult now, but it is in the pillar of light, and its shadow is not reflected on the trunk." This illustrates...... It either distorts the light around us or directly interferes with our vision. ”

"It's not surprising." "The background of this script is obviously in the main universe of the game, which means ...... Magical setting. Therefore, it is normal for organisms to appear that cannot be explained by common sense. ”

"Hmm......" Feng Bujue pondered for another moment and asked, "Uncle Wastewood, can you see this locust?" ”

"I can't see it." Uncle Waste Chai replied immediately.

"I can't see it in the light, and I ......can't see it with sunglasses," Feng Bujue said, and then raised his eyes to look at Honghu, "The surface that adheres to it is not visible at thirty-seven degrees Celsius, and it is not visible at the room temperature of fifteen degrees...... "Do any of you have any devices or skills that can emit infrared rays?" ”

"You've got a lot going on." Although Honghu was complaining, his hand had already reached into his bag and began to dig out something, "You have to let this invisible thing come into shape?" Isn't it just a grasshopper, now that it's been taken down, you can just throw it aside, wasting time on such a trivial matter, maybe it will become a hidden danger in the near future. ”

After complaining, the props were also taken out. I saw Honghu hold up a goose egg-shaped metal object and press the switch, and the object immediately unfolded, blooming a curtain of light.

Suddenly, the surrounding qiē was shrouded in the infrared radiation range.

"it!" At this second, except for Brother Jue, everyone's scare value soared sharply.

Under the irradiation of infrared rays, the players finally saw the locust, and ...... I also saw thousands of its kind.

At this moment, the players are surrounded by a sea of invisible locusts...... The canopy of trees above their heads, the mud under their feet, the trunks of trees beside them, in the grass, on the rocks...... Almost everywhere was crawling with this creature, including the clothes of the five of them, and quite a few of them had been attached.

"Fortunately, our clothes are relatively tight, and there is not much exposed skin." Feng Bujue said calmly, "And the movement speed of these locusts is really slow, and it takes half a day to squirm a little distance." He looked at Honghu, "As for Brother Glasses, it seems that you are unlucky......" He raised the catapult in his hand and shook the sucked locust gently, "This one...... Eighty percent of them fall from a branch and happen to fall on the back of your neck. ”

"What are you talking about?" Looking at the things on his body, he was about to go crazy, and he didn't dare to shoot it with his hands, so he could only shout in panic, "What should I do now!" ”

"You don't have to do anything special...... Feng Bujue shook his hand casually, threw the locust out of the catapult, then looked around, and said, "Look at this density...... We don't have to rush to clean up the ones that have already stuck to our bodies, because we will get a lot of sticky after walking a few steps anyway. He shrugged, "Why don't you just keep going, wait until you get to a place where there are no grasshoppers, and then clean up." ”

"Hey...... What if that's the same in the woods ahead? What if all the woods on this island were filled with such creatures? Traces asked.

"Then you can think about it...... How can this invisible locust be made into emergency food? Feng Bujue tilted his head and thought.

"Anyway...... Let's hurry up. Tianxingkong's face also became ugly at this time, "I have a dense phobia...... "It seems that the hero is also afraid."

"Okay, move on." Feng Bujue's tone answered easily.

Honghu took a deep breath and shook his head: "Crazy brother, there is one thing I have to admire you...... You're mentally tough. ”

"Yes, can a normal person be so casual after knowing that the situation around them is like this......" Tracebe replied.

"Heh......" Feng Bujue smiled playfully, "If you are really so scared, why don't you sing a little song to distract yourself, come, sing with me......" He opened his mouth, "Little Brother Ma, with his legs facing west, leading Uncle Waste Firewood, and following the teasing." ”

"Hey! I scolded myself for the sake of rhyme! ”RS
