Chapter 817: Wood Elemental Plane (3)

At the same time, the flying insects in the sky were burned to death by poisonous mist and flames, and fell like raindrops, or rather, hailstones.

Some of them fell near us.

Of course, most of the flying insects were still wandering outside the ring of fire, but a small number found us down and chased after us.

The swarm that chased after me also had a scale of twenty or thirty thousand.

"I should have asked Camif to prepare some pesticides." I say.

"Our plan is aimed at the ancient elves, who would have thought that the first level would be a bug?" Leo said, "Think of a way again!" ”

Ricardo looked at the bugs chasing after him and said, "Hide for a while and try concealment." ”

I said, "Yes, it's all up to you." ”

Ricardo unleashed his concealment, and his figure blurred, like an assassin and thief, leaving only a vague shadow.

Then, we left unhurriedly.

"Buzz ......"

When the swarm of flying insects arrived at the place where we were just now, they first flew around for a while, and then, under the leadership of the low-level Demonic Beast Flying Insects, they chased after us.

"Exposed......," Leo said, "insects don't rely on vision in the first place, even if these are gigantic insects with large eyes, smell and hearing, and infrared perception are also very strong, you see, the knowledge that these books have, you also need to verify it in practice, right?" ”

Ricardo appeared and said: "There is not enough material, so we can only use energy." ”

As he spoke, he changed his axe and hammer into a rage, sent out a few fireballs, and directly used the axe and hammer as a magic staff.

The flying insects are in a dense formation, or there is no formation at all, and a random fireball can kill and burn a dozen of them, but compared to the scale of tens of thousands, this killing efficiency is still too low.

Then, Ricardo unleashed area skills such as Whirlwind and Lightning Chain, which slightly increased the damage range, and could kill hundreds of birds with a random shot.

Still, the swarm was too large to ignore the attack and approach us.

"Squeak!" "Buzz!" "Bang Bang!"

The overwhelming swarm, making a numbing and sour teeth, surrounded the Ricardian cannon attack without fear of death.

I put up a protective cover, and Ricardo, seeing this, also retreated to my side little by little, and then laid out a wall of fire.

Flying insects rushed and crashed into the side of the wall of fire, and they were burned to death and burned, but they also quickly used this residual way to exhaust the energy of the wall of fire, and at the same time, some of them went around to the side.

Ricardo had no choice but to prop up a bowl-shaped shield and simply put his weapon away and concentrate on energizing the shield.

The flying insects buried the shield very quickly.

Charred insect corpses filled the surface of the shield, and soon burned to ashes, making room for more flying insects to pounce and fill the gap, and then die.

Looking at the remnants of the insect swarm, who seem to care about personal life and death, I feel a little uncomfortable.

"This is the strategy of the swarm," Leo said, "at the cost of the complete sacrifice of the individual, to achieve the goal of the whole group, as long as the core of the group can be reproduced, and no matter how many ordinary individuals are sacrificed." ”

In fact, these books are available, not to mention Leo, and even Camfer's research has mentioned them.

I said, "You don't have to remind me, remind Ricardo." ”

Leo said to Ricardo: "Again, think more about the resources you have at hand, how to use them rationally to make the most of them, and don't blindly use brute force and waste energy." ”

Ricardo continued to output to the shield, and after hearing this, he seemed to have some new ideas.

At this time, the offensive of the swarm outside also suddenly stopped.

Then, the swarm dispersed, and more than a dozen low-level demonic beast-level flying insects surrounded them.

Then, their tails began to spew out the same acidic slime as before.

"Snort!"

The acid fell on the shield and was immediately vaporized, causing puffs of black smoke, but at the same time, the shield became a little weaker.

Ricardo increased his energy output to replenish the shield that was about to burst, but at the same time, the first monsters were brewing a second wave of acid spitting.

Ricardo took out a hand, released a few flame arrows, and killed three low-level demonic beasts, barely alleviating the crisis, but the other low-level demonic beasts that were not attacked continued to spit acid.

Ricardo continued to fire flaming arrows, but unexpectedly, a small group of ordinary flying insects were separated from the swarm and blocked the flaming arrows.

Again, this tactic of not being afraid of sacrifice.

These insects don't take individual life seriously at all.

In fact, as long as their nests are still there, there are as many ordinary flying insects as there are.

There are two kinds of evolution of living things, one is to strengthen oneself and occupy an absolute advantage in the competition for survival, and in this regard, the big beasts are like this. The other is to increase the number of individuals and gain an advantage in numbers, as is the case with many insects, the most representative of which are ants and bees.

Intelligent beings, on the other hand, have chosen a path in between, strengthening the individual as well as the racial group, thus achieving a balance between the two.

Among them, the strategy of humans is to make up for the lack of individual strength with numbers, while the elves overemphasize the strength of individuals, and with the combination of tree people and demon pets, as well as natural magical talents, they are in the lead in terms of average individual strength, but the number is not dominant.

And the orcs chose balance.

However, to be precise, orcs are passive choices, or no choice at all, after all, some weak races have a much higher fertility rate than humans, but their strength is far inferior, and strong races are simply unable to produce more people.

In short, the situation of the orcs is somewhat difficult.

Having said that, the current crisis is still unresolved.

Ricardo had no choice but to increase the power of his attack and throw a powerful lightning ball.

This time, the effect was very good, and the three low-level demonic beasts were killed by lightning along with the flying insects in front of them.

However, the remaining low-level Warcraft level did not stop attacking, and the protective shield was finally corroded by the acid to make a gap.

"Squeak!"

A few death-defying bugs got in.

Ricardo is another flaming arrow, and he is scrambling to fill the gap.

At this time, more flying insect support also flew down from the burned dead leaves.

I looked up and saw the dead leaves that had been burned to the ground, like a meteorite falling from the sky, falling towards us!

"Hey," Leo said, "missed this step!" ”

I shouted, "Ricardo, get out of here!" ”

Ricardo then noticed the remains of Fang's dead leaves.

We removed the protective shield, leaving only one layer on our body, and rushed into the swarm of insects, running in the direction of the petiole.

The dense swarm of insects almost blocked our view, but it couldn't stop our fierce charge at all, let alone slow us down the slightest bit, and we knocked them out of the way.

The Tyrannosaurus rex spit out a large group of people impatiently, directly burning thousands of flying insects in front of it to ashes.

The front suddenly brightened up and was unimpeded.

To be honest, giving the Tyrannosaurus Rex enough energy to burn hundreds of thousands of flying insects couldn't be simpler.

I suddenly felt that it was necessary to test Ricardo in this way.

But thinking of Leo's resolute attitude, I didn't say much.

Leo himself sighed: "It's still a Tyrannosaurus rex that is easy to save trouble." ”

I said, "Is it really interesting that you're still tossing Ricardo like that?" ”

Sure enough, he retorted: "Exercise his thinking, this is a rare opportunity, there is an ancient Chinese saying that the poor raise a son and a rich daughter, that is, boys must learn from some hardships, hone more, and grow up to have the responsibility of a man, girls should be loved from an early age, and only when they grow up can they know how to take care of themselves, and don't wronged themselves." ”

"That sounds reasonable," I said, "so you think Ricardo's is a son?" ”

"Isn't the point here?" Leo said, "However, Ricardo is originally a male name, and I also want him to inherit my will and ambitions, of course it has to be a man, and when it comes to daughters, alas, I also want to raise one, but unfortunately, there are no conditions for ...... for the time being."

As we spoke, we had run to the petiole.

"Boom ......"

Curled into a clump, almost burned wreckage, all that remained were charred veins and unextinguished red charcoal-like mesophyll, which shook the leaves we were.

Of course, if it is a normal size, I don't really care about the vibration caused by a burnt leaf falling into another leaf, but at such a size, the vibration of the leaf surface is also quite terrifying, looking at the cliff below, it is even more creepy, and the heartbeat is intensified.

Even if I know such a height, with my strength, I don't have to be afraid of falling to death, but I can't help but be terrified.

The dead leaves slowly extinguished, and the poisonous mist diffused in the air killed another batch of flying insects, but it also burned out quickly, and the remaining insect swarm was probably less than 50,000, but it was still a little difficult for Ricardo to deal with.

However, Leo still insisted on testing Ricardo, and also asked the Tyrannosaurus Rex not to shoot.

After all, Ricardo was not an ordinary child, and he was not stumped by such a request, but he couldn't do it according to Leo's "efficient and labor-saving" requirements, so he directly picked up his weapon and rushed into the swarm.

Before rushing out, he opened a close-fitting water shield, the purpose of which was supposed to prevent the acid of the low-level monster flying insects, and then, adding a much looser layer of wind shield, just like the "stormy" Saiyan in the Earth cartoon, carrying an axe and hammer to rage, and launched a charge.

If I was like a Kodomon rushing into a flock of sheep when I broke through the human front in the Iron Wall, then Ricardo is like an anteater rushing into a collapsed anthill.

Actually, it was a massacre.

It is equivalent to a high-level demonic beast rushing into the group of ordinary beasts led by low-level demonic beasts.
