Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Insect King's Coercion
......Just when both of them thought that a qiē was a foregone conclusion, there was a sudden noise of trees breaking, and then a stream of flames struck, heading straight for Ma Le, who was moving at high speed.
Ma Le had no choice but to step on the trunk of the tree with both feet and fly out to dodge, while the towering tree was baptized by the flames and instantly turned into a thick torch.
"Tank monsters?" Ma Le grabbed another tree, looked up, and sure enough, he saw five or six huge beetles swaying towards him, destroying countless trees along the way with their hard bodies and scorching flames.
"Just a few? It's not that hard to deal with! Ma Le smiled confidently and glanced at the dirt pit on the ground, "Let's solve that little ghost first!" As he spoke, he kicked his legs, and with a click left two clear footprints on the trunk of the tree, which scurried in the direction of Creel like an arrow off the string.
But while he was still in the air, Ma Le suddenly felt a strong threat coming from the direction where the tank monster was, this threat was not an ordinary danger prediction, but more like some kind of coercion emitted by a powerful creature! Ma Le couldn't help but feel a thrill after feeling it, and suddenly turned around in mid-air, and the Jiuyang Divine Skill was running at full strength, stimulating the internal force of his body to strike a palm in the direction where the coercion came from. As the energy of the force system, the distance of the qi function is limited, and it is inevitably impossible to reach the tank monster in the distance, Ma Le's palm is not to resist the enemy, but intends to use the reaction force of the internal force to change direction in mid-air, and try to stay away from the powerful threat.
With the recoil of that palm, Ma Le spun around a few times in mid-air and landed on the ground, rolled up, facing the direction of the enemy, ready for battle.
However, the tank monsters changed their usual ferocious nature, and did not seem to be in a hurry to rush up, but stood in a row with those six thick legs, lined up as if someone was commanding. After standing in line, several tank monsters separated from the left and right sides, making way for a passage.
Ma Le's face was solemn, and the powerful coercion came from that passage. He has experienced several worlds, and he has encountered several powerful monsters in them, but none of them can give him such a great sense of tension as this time. It feels different from the ferocity of No. 21, different from the domineering of King Kong, different from the coldness of the terminator, and different from the majesty of the king of Himiko. In contrast, it feels more pure, more primitive, more real, as if a lamb faces a lion and a rat faces a poisonous snake, which is an instinctive fear of the upper reaches of the food chain!
However, unlike the others, Ma Le was a bloodthirsty lamb, a ferocious mouse, and although he was afraid of his coercive master, his aggressive instincts made him feel faintly excited. "Moving up the food chain? Lao Tzu still has the ability to absorb, who is at the top, I'm afraid it's not necessarily! ”
Soon, there was a heavy and thin sound of footsteps in the passage, and a huge black shadow gradually emerged, looking at the size, it was several times larger than an ordinary tank monster, and even bigger than King Kong! As the outline gradually became clearer, Ma Le finally saw that the black shadow turned out to be a strange monster with a human-like upper body and an insect-like lower body!
The giant insect monster was about thirteen meters tall, and its upper body resembled an adult human male, except that there were no human facial features on the skull, instead it was a hard-shelled cheek similar to a grasshopper, and there were two pairs of snow-white jaws underneath. Underneath the skull, a carapace-clad body resembles a human, but its arms are alienated and divided into three folds like a praying mantis, with a pair of sharp barbed scythes at the forefront.
Further down, the lower body of the insect monster was not connected to the humanoid body, but a worm body lying on the ground, which looked like a caterpillar, fat and large, and moved only by dozens of small and sharp feet born on both sides. However, this body does not look as soft as a caterpillar, and like the upper body, the lower body is also covered with a knotted carapace, which protects the soft tissues inside.
As soon as the huge monster appeared, an aura of fear spread through the jungle, but Ma Le remained indifferent. His brow furrowed, as if he was looking at the monster, but in reality, the gaze seemed to be penetrating, looking farther behind.
Yes, although this monster is huge and hideous, Ma Le did not feel the threat of Yan zhòng from it, and the coercion that made his heart palpitate should have been emitted by something else.
"The humans over there should be humans...... After all, I haven't seen it in a long time...... Sue me, what is this place? ”
Suddenly, a strange sound echoed in the space around him, which seemed to be some kind of language, Ma Le had never heard of it, but for some reason, he understood the meaning.
I didn't know the other party's intention, Ma Le didn't answer, just raised his fists across his chest, ready for battle.
"Can I understand the meaning of your action as hostile to me?" The strange voice sounded again, and at the same time, the huge monster suddenly became agitated, shaking its huge body and suddenly took a big step closer to Ma Le, and at the same time, the sickles of both arms struck each other, making a loud noise, full of threat.
Ma Le took two steps back vigilantly, and finally replied loudly: "I don't know where this is, and I don't know if you are...... What, I'm just here to fight the enemy. How about you continue to ask other people questions about you, I'll stay here and kill my enemies, and we won't interfere with each other? ”
"Enemies?" The voice sounded again: "Are you teasing me?" There is only one human here, and there is no other creature that can match you except my zerg, where is the enemy you are talking about? ”
Ma Le was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he thought of Creel's stealth ability, that guy's stealth ability is to completely integrate into the environment, although it will be detected by high-perception creatures, but the premise is that he is doing sports, which will have an impact on the environment. And now, this guy was beaten and couldn't move and lay at the bottom of the pit, if he entered the stealth state, wouldn't it be like a stone and grass, completely undetectable, and even this extremely powerful storage zài had been deceived?!
Ma Le didn't answer for a while, the huge monster became more and more irritable, and the voice in the air became more severe: "I hate lies the most, that is the dirtiest behavior of human beings, and all human beings who lie should be eliminated!" As soon as he finished speaking, the giant insect monster wriggled towards him wielding two huge scythes.
This sudden change made Ma Le a little speechless, what kind of fucking logic is this, just because he lied and was going to be killed? What's more, what Lao Tzu said is the fucking truth!
It's a pity that the insect won't listen to his explanation, and seeing the bone blade chopping down in front of him, Ma Le deftly jumped to the side, which can be avoided. With a click, the scythe slashed into the ground leaving a deep furrow, shocking.
The monster couldn't strike a blow, and brandished its twin knives and attacked it repeatedly, looking terrifying, but Ma Le, who was in it, coped with it without pressure. As I said before, the huge monster is of course extremely powerful, but relatively, the panel attribute may not be high, compared to Ma Le, the agility and body of this monster are much worse, plus the action radius is too large, the attack is easy to predict, so it is not a threat to Ma Le at all.
However, Ma Le in the dodge still played twelve points of caution, what he was really afraid of was not this monster, but the one hidden behind it, the storage zài who communicated with him.
Although the huge insect monster has a hard carapace and strong strength, it is a bug after all, and its IQ is 108,000 miles away from King Kong, and even with the Tyrannosaurus rex, its simple brain is not enough to budget too complex information, so the mode of attack is single, and it is not very good at using the environment to improvise, and it is all instinctive to act. In Ma Le's eyes, this product is much easier to deal with than King Kong, and he found the pattern in a few rounds.
Taking advantage of the gap between the monster's attacks, Ma Le saw the opportunity to "swish" at its exposed armpits, which were two marker guns. This is also the biggest limitation of arthropods, although most of the body is covered by the carapace, but in order to be able to move flexibly, there must be soft gaps between the carapaces, how sharp the marker gun is, stabbing the soft flesh in the gap, directly popping into the nobody.
Just imagine what it would be like to have two toothpicks inserted into your squeaky nest! The monster may not be as sensitive to pain as a human, but when attacked, its right arm instinctively clenched and twitched.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Le violently pressed the discharge button, and the two marking guns burst out with a powerful current at once, and the double power grid even passed through the flesh, and flickering electric sparks could be seen outside. And the monster's muscles contracted suddenly due to the stimulation of the strong electric current, clamping its arm tightly, and trembling all over.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ma Le rushed to the monster at the same time while loading, flashed the sharp thin legs that attacked, flew hard, leaped to the upper half of the monster's body, grabbed a gap in the carapace, swung it hard, and flew to the left arm that was not injured.
Seeing the enemy on his left arm, the big monster hurriedly swung his scythe and slashed at a giant tree on the left, trying to shake the little thing away. However, Ma Le jumped up the moment before the bone blade collided with the thick tree trunk, and with a bang, the bone blade was nailed deep into the thick tree trunk, and Ma Le also jumped on the troll's shoulder.
At this time, the monster's right arm was clamped by the electric stimulation, and its left hand was nailed into the trunk of the tree and could not be pulled out, and it was completely defenseless for a while, while Ma Le was already standing next to its head, raising the marker gun against the huge crystal compound eye.
At this moment, that terrifying coercion suddenly rose, and the intensity increased by several levels, and it was directed at Ma Le, making him feel an indescribable sense of danger.
Ma Le didn't think about it, pulled the trigger and jumped high, far away from the monster's body. However, he saw in mid-air that the marker gun was wrapped in a slender tentacle that protruded from a carapace in the monster's neck.
