Chapter 490: A Flower

In Leon's vision, he saw something huge in the dimly lit depths of the rotting fireflies. At first glance, it looked like a pillar with strange patterns, and it looked like a python with eyes all over its body, and the knight looked closely for a few seconds before realizing its true identity, which was several giant centipedes that were entwined and coiled together. These monsters were as wide as Leon's waist and as thin as his arm. The centipede's body is covered in a chitin shell, each of which has two bright yellow spots like eyes, which when they wriggle and produce a visual effect that makes it difficult to discern their true length.

"It sucks. Krus whispered as he saw this, his hands hanging down, the tips of his sword and dagger slowly protruding from his palms.

Raven's brows converged, he didn't feel the scent of magic in this room, which caused the sorcerer to fail to spot the hidden danger in the first place. At the same time, he also understands that these strange creatures that were domesticated and nurtured by Kuyla may not be controlled by magic themselves, and although their growth process has been affected by humans, they are now more like natural creatures that have grown up in extreme environments. Dealing with them in the same way you used against wizard pets may not be effective.

Like the gray robe, Kiri also showed a look of disgust, she also failed to detect the existence of the giant centipede, but this was not the reason for the witch's frown. She just didn't like these giant insects, which kept her hairs on end. Webworms don't have such problems, and the mercenary has been with the Otlanta spiders since birth, and she is already familiar with the numbness of both the spiders themselves and the other insects that inevitably come into contact with them when raising them. Of course, as the only member of the team who doesn't yet possess dark vision, Networm has to see these monsters before she can play to her strengths.

The stimulation was two-way, whether it was sound or ground shaking or the heat emitted by living organisms, the arrival of the team clearly alarmed the entangled multi-legged creatures. They wagged their heads or tails with long tentacles, and the yellow spots on their bodies looked like bands of light circulating as they crawled rapidly. One, two... At least seven heads poked out, and the nearest Blood Lion could clearly see the centipede's wide barbed claws and dripping broken flesh.

"Looks like we're interrupting them for dinner. The Demon Spawn whispered, silently walking over to Leon's side, if he was to deal with such a large number of enemies at the same time, the knight would need someone to help him protect his back. The Blood Lion noticed that the magic pattern on Krus's body did not light up with the iconic red light this time, and even the weapon in his hand lost its scorching temperature, and with it, the killer's footsteps were unusually light, and the excitement of cruelty could not be heard in his voice.

"Count them out of luck. The chief knight put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and now was not the time to draw it. Unlike Krus's ability to draw a sword from the palm of his hand, the sound of the blade rubbing against the scabbard could further irritate these monsters, which was not what Leon wanted.

It's a pity that the Blood Lion's idea was not conveyed to everyone in time. "Wait!" Bakham didn't have the patience of his knights, and the young elf fell into fear at the sight of the centipedes, and the first action he reacted to was to draw his knife in his hand! The touch of the leather hand and the weight of the knife gave him a sense of security and made him realize what a mistake he had made.

The centipedes that spread out quickly along the walls, from top to bottom, left and right, were like flowers of death in bloom! The yellow spots on the carapace formed the core and stamens of the flower, and the slender feet of the millipedes crawled to form the vicious barbs on the edges of the petals. This flower bloomed so brilliantly that it covered half of the entire warehouse space in an instant! The two warriors standing at the forefront did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly put on a battle posture. Now that he had alarmed the other party, Leon had to smile bitterly and pull out his one-handed sword, and was determined to let Buckham make up for the lesson on patience, if they could all get out alive.

"Hiss!" "Drink!" The largest centipede fell from the roof and launched a tentative attack from above. It was doomed to fail, because part of the killer's attention had always been on it. The long sword, which had no temperature, accompanied by a light drink, met the sharp teeth of the millipede above his head from right to left, making a crisp crashing sound. The shock from the weapon nearly made the Demon Descendant let go, he didn't expect the monster's carapace to be so hard. But obviously, the giant centipede is not having a good time, even without the blessing of high temperature, the power of the demon who knows how to control qi with one hand is enough to match the full force of ordinary people's hands. The proof was that the huge head was smashed to the side by the long sword, although it was only for a short moment, but it was enough to alert the monster.

"Be careful, these things are hard. Krus swung his sword and quickly leaned close to Leon's side, not giving the other party a chance to continue attacking him. At the same time, as the only person on his side who has had a head-on collision with the other party, the Demon Descendant rarely opened his mouth to remind his companions.

The knight nodded. At this time, a smaller centipede attacked from the wall on the left, and he stepped forward with his left foot, leaving an arc with the long sword in his hand, and then slashed at the top of the millipede's head! But the power of the weapon and the short-lived sound made the Blood Lion's heart sink, and he quickly rolled on the ground with his left hand, avoiding the two deadly claws. But the centipede's attack wasn't over yet, and due to the direction of the roll, Leon was right between the millipede's raised body and the wall it was clinging to, and those short spear-like arthropods with the weight of a monster slammed down on Leon!

At this time, it was too late to resist with the sword body, and the knight commander decisively held the sword body of the one-handed sword with his left hand after knowing that there was no way to avoid it, and grabbed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and used the counterweight at the bottom of the sword handle to hit the centipede's body like a hammer!

The Blood Lion, who had retrieved a life, took two steps back, and only then did he determine that the encounter was not his own victory, and three scratches pierced his shoulder armor, leaving three wounds on the knight's shoulder. One of them was particularly severe, the barbs on the centipede's arthropod turned some muscles out of the skin, and the piercing pain made Leon wonder if he could still hold on to his weapon.

"Ahh It was Bakham's voice, and the knight hurriedly looked over, only to see a centipede the thickness of an arm snaking up the elf's short knife, and several sections of its body had already crawled onto the knight's right arm!

Damn, it's too late. Experience told Leon that with the distance between the two, he couldn't get to Buckham's side quickly, and the corner of his eye also made him see that Callus was entanglement with the big centipede from before, and he didn't have time to come back to help. At this moment, a somewhat unexpected person rushed to the elf's side, cursing the crow.

The wizard held his staff upside down in both hands and stabbed the millipede on Bakham's arm like a spear with the bottom of the staff. The moment the staff made contact with the centipede carapace, a violent red light emanated from the eye of the six-winged crow at the top of the staff, and after a high-pitched scream, the centipede quickly left the elf and retreated into the darkness with a blackened carapace on top of its head.

"Don't rush too far ahead, boy. The sorcerer, whose eyes flashed with a magical light, said coldly to Bakm, who was slumped on the ground.
