"Bloodthirsty Worm!" Apu, who was in charge of the lookout ahead, ran back and warned Sal.

Behind him, a black insect tide appeared.

It is the sound of the surging insects.

It spread little by little in his direction, and although the speed was not fast, the scene of the black insect tide rushing in was still numb to the scalp.

The Bloodthirsty Worm is a forest killer that feeds on flesh and blood.

If you don't have a wound or a smell of blood, you can step on them and you'll be fine.

But once they smell blood, they will mobilize their tribe to rush to the bloody land, devouring blood and flesh wherever they go, gnawing their prey clean and leaving only a skeleton.

Ronald and Vasa heard Apu's warning, and subconsciously turned their heads sharply and looked at Sal behind them, wanting to get his advice.

After receiving Apu's warning, Sal did not see panic on his face, only nodded, and reassured them with his eyes.

"We can't go." Sal's face was calm, and his amber eyes looked around at the situation and said to them.

Usually, when the hunting team in the tribe encounters a bloodthirsty insect insect, they will try not to hurt themselves and avoid it as much as possible.

It's not impossible to run at the moment, the bloodthirsty insects are very slow, and they definitely can't catch up with them.

But just as Lian Yue left, Sal led a few people to move the corpses of the deer from the battlefield just now.

He also spread a thick layer of broad leaves on the ground, and then put an arm-thick layer of dead branches on top of it, and put the carcasses of the eighteen silverhorned deer together, covered them with thick leaves, and sprinkled the last remaining pieces of stinky grass on them to cover up the smell.

Now, if they go right away and don't face the bloodthirsty insects, they will inevitably lose most of their prey, which is not what Sal wants to see.

Although it is not known whether the insect tide was attracted by the bloody qi of the deer herd, it is certain that according to the current trend of the insect tide, the place where they are currently must be the place where the insect tide must pass.

A bloodthirsty insect is usually the size of a thumb, and they have a hard carapace and sharp mouthparts.

Although the speed is not fast, once they are contaminated with the skin, out of aggressive instinct, once the bite is broken, other insects will swarm up, and the question of whether they can leave a whole corpse is a matter of consideration.

"Use fire, they won't dare to come close." Apu rushed back, looked at the three of them, and said.

"We have to find a way to lure them away, the smell of blood here is too strong, and the stinky grass can't be hidden." Vasa agreed with him and continued to suggest.

"Yes." Sal has no opinion.

"There's a small one there, we can throw it out and make bait." Ronald pointed to the carcass of a half-large silverhorn deer on top, and then to the direction of the insect tide.

Thrall looked into the distance again, and the insect tide was already visible to the naked eye, and it was about to come.

"Alright, Apu, you can throw this fawn over there." Sal commanded the Apu, and then pointed to Ronald and Vasa, and said, "Go and get some branches, you two, and these prey must be saved." ”

Thrall's team has always worked well together, and they all understand each other's intentions without saying anything.

At that moment, the four of them were busy.

Vasa and Ronald were quick enough to clear the dead branches and hay from the nearby trees, pile them together, and enclose the prey in the center.

Thrall transformed into a beast again, his huge body prostrate on the ground, his four paws on the ground, and quickly swept the grass within a five-meter radius of the silverhorn deer's corpse.

Then he began to dig a pit downward, which was not deep, only ten centimeters, revealing the moist soil underneath.

Apu's task was much more difficult, he had to resist the fawn and go to the side, leaving the fawn's bloody breath along the way, and trying to avoid the insect tide getting close to Thrall.

At the same time, keep yourself safe.

Ready together, the Sal men lit the fire around their prey and hid themselves in a nearby tree.

At this time, the insect tide is getting closer and closer.

Patches of black bugs came like a tidal wave, one bug close to the other, and even some jumped up and trampled on the other bugs.

Apu dragged the fawn, cutting more wounds into its flesh, the smell of blood intertwined with the rich smell of the air.

The insects smelled the thick smell of blood, jumped more excitedly, and made a clattering sound.

Apu didn't start very fast, and even shook it in front of the insect tide before turning a corner and going to the side.

The leading bug went straight for Apu.

Apu was very measured enough to fall behind them so that they wouldn't catch up with him so easily.

A gust of wind swept in front of Sal, carrying all sorts of smells in the air.

Da Da

"Sal!" Vasa on the trunk of a nearby tree let out a frightened look on his face.

Sal's face couldn't help but show a hint of anxiety, he didn't expect that this insect tide was much larger than he had seen before.

The insect infestation is the size of three tribal squares.

The bugs in front followed Apu away, and the bugs in the back chased the bugs in front while colliding.

Because of the bend, more and more bugs poured out, piling up more and more around the corner, and getting closer and closer to the place where the battle had just taken place.

Where the battle had just begun, there were still traces of blood on the ground and fine pieces of flesh that had been torn apart.

Despite the cover of stinky grass, it does not have much effect on the bloodthirsty insects, but is more attractive.

The insects that fell behind could not sense the bloody smell of the bait, but were attracted by the bloody atmosphere of the battlefield.

Some of the bugs were first dizzy and crowded, and after catching the rich smell, they rushed towards this side even more desperately, leaving their large army behind.

"This..."Thrall didn't understand, shouldn't the swarm all go in one direction? Why is it still divided into two groups here?

In the stunned eyes of the three of them, the swarm of insects that fell behind seemed to have received a signal, and they all rushed towards this side, as if they were not ready to take care of the large army.

The blood that had not been drunk by the orcs just now was all soaked into the soil and merged with the soil, and now it was all surrounded by bloodthirsty insects, digging and devouring.

They frantically rushed towards those traces of flesh and blood, crowded and trampled on each other, making people's scalps tingle when they saw it.

There were a lot of bugs, and a trace of flesh and bloody soil was not enough for them to digest, and more bugs were crowded and jumping behind, thirsting for flesh and blood.

When the insects left the battlefield just now, the blades of grass, bark and trunks were all gnawed fiercely, and even some of the ground was gnawed into potholes, and the grass and trees on it were gone, as if someone had just loosened the soil here.

They sniffed the smell of blood in the air and instinctively headed for each other's prey.

Inside was a ring of fire, blazing.

Outside, there was a tide of insects, densely wrapping this ring of fire.

They were jumping around in place, but they didn't dare to get closer.

But the smell of blood in the air attracted them instinctively, like moths to a fire, and swarms of insects jumped into the flames.

Sal stopped Ronald, who was about to jump impulsively, and motioned for him to take another look at the situation and not act rashly.

These insects, as if they want to cross this sea of fire, to touch the temptation of instinct.

Swarms of bloodthirsty insects jumped into the fire.

Before he could overcome the obstacles, he was consumed by the relentless flames.

The corpse of the insect did not have time to burn completely, only emitting a pungent scorching smell, and behind it, the swarm of insects rushed straight up.

The fire, however, slowly became smaller in such a leap again and again.

Thrall knew that if they didn't think about it, the swarm would be able to build a path across the circle of fire with the corpses piled up, and then there would be no prey left for them.

"You can't let the fire go out, or there's nothing."

The three of them looked at each other and agreed with the idea that they couldn't wait any longer, they must not let the fire go out, otherwise there would be nothing.

Instead, make the fire burn stronger, burn them to death or burn them so that they dare not come closer.

The agile bodies of the three swayed from tree trunk to tree, searching for nearby branches to use.
