Wealth is moving!

Under the temptation of this large sum of money, the captain of the caravan couldn't help but lick his slightly dry lips, looked at a few henchmen who kept nodding at him, and then the captain of the guard replied: "Yes!" I'd like to have more time to prepare, though...... In addition to sending some of the people who don't want to take the risk back to the city, I'm going to have to recruit another group of men! In that case, it will be more secure......"

"Yes!"

The leader of the caravan said viciously, "As long as I can eradicate this stinging insect community, I don't care if I go bankrupt......"

As a result, the captain of the caravan's escort immediately sent out his men and went into separate actions.

As for Wei Zede, in order not to delay the trip, he waited patiently in the temporary camp.

During this time, Wei Zede flipped through the monster illustrated book provided by the halfling Walker, and carefully read the detailed information about the ground stinging insects, so as to make targeted preparations.

"The stinger has its origins in the brutal history of the Teflin Empire, Bar Tusser. The wizards of Tevelyn mixed mortal reptilian creatures with infernal bloodlines to create the Ground Stinger Worm to weaken enemies from within as infiltrators. ”

"By slowly digging through the earth and rocks to build their nests underground, they are drawn to places that already have open underground space and supernatural energy."

"Although the ground stingers can eat carrion, they still prefer living creatures, so the undead will not be preyed upon by the ground stingers......"

"It's quite possible that intelligent beings will find a way to control the ground stinger and use it as a living weapon. The most likely candidates to do this are the Teflin, the Devil, and evil creatures willing to make a deal with the Devil. ”

“…… The Stingworms take the smell of dead bodies of their own people as a warning, and they will avoid places where there are large numbers of Stingers dead. Therefore, as long as enough ground stinging insects are killed in one place, it is possible to expel them from the area......"

“……”

Nothing happened overnight.

Early the next morning, the captain of the Shangdu guard led a group of mercenaries back to the temporary camp. By this time, the caravan had been disbanded and had turned into a battle team that surrounded and suppressed the stinging insect colony.

"Adventurer, glad you were able to stay!"

When the captain of the guard saw Wei Zede, he nodded and said hello.

Wei Zede also bowed in return, and he replied lightly: "I just don't want to delay my trip!" ”

When everything was ready, the encirclement team formed a formation and outflanked the general direction of the stinger colony.

……

The continent of Walsted is so large that it is impossible for humans and other intelligent races to completely occupy every habitable place, which makes it impossible for humans and other intelligent races to occupy every habitable place, which makes it possible for many borderless lands to exist in the vast wilderness.

Under normal circumstances, it doesn't matter if these borderlands are taken over by a tribe or not! However, once these groups are close to the main transportation routes between the cities, they will inevitably suffer a bloody clean-up......

Therefore, there are generally no ethnic groups gathering near the roads between cities, because any ethnic groups that originally occupied suitable places to live near the roads have been completely cleaned up by intelligent races such as humans for generations!

It was in this bloody slaughter that the trade routes were opened with great difficulty, and most of the wild creatures generally remembered this lesson from the bloodline.

Now, there is a colony of ground stinging insects near the traffic artery where Weized is located, and for whatever reason, this is a challenge to humanity! If you ignore it, you will have to abandon this trade route and spend more energy to open up a new trade route.

And this situation is obviously impossible......

Therefore, when the leader of the caravan issued a reward for encircling and suppressing this stinging insect colony, the captain of the guard did not hesitate to agree. In addition to the monetary benefits, he will also receive more important honors after the swarm of stingers is exterminated!

As he made his way to the location of the stinger colony, Wei Zede glanced at the group of mercenaries, almost all of them were melee warriors, and there were very few ranged attackers. The previous caravan guards walked behind with bows and crossbows.

"Cannon fodder?"

Wei Zede pursed his lips, and he could see at a glance the trick of the caravan escort captain.

"Raise your shield!"

"Don't scatter! Raise all your shields! ”

The captain of the caravan guard commanded loudly: "The ground stinger will have some sound before it attacks!" ”

"If you don't want to die in vain, you'd better prick up your ears for me!"

As one order after another was issued, everyone in the encirclement and suppression team raised their vigilance.

"Tweet ......"

"Hiss ......"

A strange noise came from the ground, getting louder and louder!

With a "boom", a large hole collapsed in the ground, and a hideous beetle about three people tall and the size of a car rushed out.

"Poof!"

A dark green acid sprayed at the mercenaries holding shields.

"Be careful! This time, the king of the swarm of stingers! ”

"Hide!"

Weised, who was within range, made a sideways jump and tumble to narrowly avoid the dark green acid.

The other mercenaries were not so lucky, although they had the protection of the shield, but the effect on the pervasive acid was very poor!

Several mercenaries who blocked the strong acid spray head-on, and even though there were shields blocking many of them, many of the splattered strong acid still fell on them.

"Ahh

In the midst of the screams, the skin on many parts of the mercenaries' bodies was burned and rotted with strong acid.

This is the terrible impact of the strong acid of the king of the stinging insects, not only with the corrosive burning of strong acids, but also because the biological characteristics of the ground stinging insects are not inferior to toxicity.

"Kill it!"

With a wave of the caravan guard's sword, the caravan guards armed with bows and crossbows began to shoot.

However, the King of the Swarm of Ground Spikes is clad in a heavy, spiked carapace, and these ranged attacks are largely ineffective against it.

"Damn it!"

Just as Wei Zede was about to step forward to fight, his face suddenly changed.

I saw that in the deep hole formed by the collapse of the ground, the ground thorn insects with the same spiked carapace continued to pour out.

"Whoosh!"

The stinging insects shot out the spikes on their carapaces, enveloping the caravan guards who were shooting not far away.

This sudden situation distracted everyone present, and several caravan guards were shot in the face by these spikes.

"Don't get distracted!"

The captain of the caravan guard shouted loudly, "Kill this king of the swarm of stingers first!" Otherwise, none of us will be able to escape......"
