Chapter VII Deployment

It was a giant centipede five feet long, purple-red in color, with a jet-black head and white feet, at least a thousand legs, each with venomous glands. Although there have always been a lot of cockroaches, rats, centipedes and the like in Camp Dawn, there is definitely no such big thing, and it can be classified as a monster.

The giant centipede came out of nowhere, crawling and walking on the wall, with several thumb-thick tentacles sticking out from behind...... Two, three, half-hidden outside the house, there is a constant sound of popping, centipedes one by one through the crack in the door, the picture of centipedes rampant, is really hideous and scary.

Zhang Mu didn't expect that he would be so unlucky, first encountered a monster attack in the square, and now he is at home Yujian these reptiles. Centipedes don't like things that glow and heat, and one of them looks up and shoots venom, and the bedroom light bulb is directly shattered, and the whole thing is plunged into darkness.

Zhang Mu had already drawn his sword, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was to move the box out first. There is a lot of food and production resources stored in it, and if it is destroyed by monsters, it will be a big deal.

"Tsk!"

Probably the sound of drawing the sword startled the centipede, or after the light bulb was shattered, Zhang Mu became the highest heating element in the room. The centipede froze, then arched itself and made an attacking stance. Several poisonous arrows shot out, Zhang Mu quickly avoided it, the venom corroded most of the table, the venom volatilized quickly, and the purple-red poisonous mist filled half of the bedroom in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Mu inevitably inhaled a mouthful of poisonous mist, only to feel that the inhalation was like a flame, his lungs were burned to a sharp pain, his eyes were like being poured into chili pepper water, the pain was unbearable, he couldn't open his eyes, and there was faint blood flowing out, and if he continued like this, he would definitely be blind.

Zhang Mu first slashed out a sword qi to cut off the centipede, and the green thick liquid splashed on the wall, and the walls were corroded into a small pit, and more poisonous mist volatilized. Zhang Mu rushed to the side of the bed, opened a dark layer, struggled to pick up the heavy box, fought with all his strength, and fell out of the window.

The number of centipedes in the house has increased a lot, and a few of them have come to Zhang Mu's feet, the poisonous fog is getting thicker and thicker, Zhang Mu's situation is not good, and he immediately seals his hands - "Soul Spell Seal!" "The centipedes were disturbed by the spell and became crazy, gnawing and fighting each other, killing each other, and becoming a mess.

Zhang Mu took the opportunity to break out of the window, took out a bottle of antidote and drank it, checked his body, and reduced his life by about 65 points, and the poisoning situation was better than he imagined.

There was an exclamation from the girls' dormitory, only to hear Du Rongrong screaming: "Ahhhh ”

More than ten women rushed out from inside, Leng Yun, Lin Caiyan, and Du Rongrong were among them, these people looked very embarrassed, and the others were also alarmed, centipedes were found in many rooms, and everyone ran out and came to the courtyard.

Lei Ming walked out fully armed: "What's going on?" ”

Du Rongrong's hair was scattered, and one of her shoes fell off, patting her small chest, frightened: "There are a few big centipedes that come into the room, and they will vomit poison, but fortunately I ran fast." ”

"Quick, go to a few people and remind the nearby residents not to be injured by the poisonous centipede." Zhang Mu saw that the three rooms in the courtyard were more or less filled with poisonous mist, and he knew that there must be a lot of centipedes, "Is there anyone else in this house?" ”

Lin Caiyan looked left and right before replying, "No, everyone ran out as soon as they heard the movement." ”

Black Claw, who had been napping in the yard, suddenly roared violently, pounced, bared his teeth and roared at the house a few times.

"Be careful, the reptiles are getting better."

The room of the house was suddenly pushed open by something, and then I saw three or five giant centipedes almost four feet long, slowly burrowing out of the room, some shuttling through the walls, some climbing up the roof, and a few left the house and came towards a few people.

"Tsk!"

The centipede spotted the creature and let out a strange cry, and the venom spewed out, although it didn't hit anyone, but the poisonous mist quickly volatilized.

"Beware, don't inhale the poisonous mist!" Everyone hurriedly retreated, only to see more and more centipedes coming out, and there were twenty or thirty of them alone. They walk up and down the house, and when they crawl with thousands of feet, they make a snapping sound, which makes people feel hairy to hear.

Du Rongrong summoned the death mantis, "Disgusting worm, dare to get into the old lady's room, if you don't kill all of you, I won't be surnamed Du!" ”

The Death Mantis flew out with its arms outstretched, slashing out four or five slashes in a row. The centipede is very agile, knows how to bounce and dodge, only hits 2, and before it has time to continue attacking, it is splashed on its body by the venom of the poisonous centipede. As soon as it was touched by the venom, the green body turned black and even rotted, and under the attack of twenty or thirty centipedes at the same time, the death mantis immediately lost its blood.

Du Rongrong hurriedly used counter-summoning to send the Death Mantis back, and was about to summon the Mushroom King.

"It's just a level 15 black iron elite, removing venom is a bit tricky, and it's not powerful, if you use the mushroom king, the surrounding houses will be destroyed!"

"If you don't kill them quickly, the centipedes will spread!"

Some centipedes have spread out in all directions.

"Leave it to me!"

Zhang Mu shot out a spiritual spell and landed in the group of centipedes with the largest number of them. The centipedes were stunned, then fell to the ground, and all fell into a deep sleep. They are very weak compared to Zhang Mu, and they are easy to hypnotize.

The cold light of the flying sword swept away, and the two centipedes were cut off, and a large amount of dark green liquid flowed full of drops, and the centipedes were attacked, and the hypnosis was lifted, but they could not move. Zhang Mu aimed at the centipede that was not dead, and one by one powerful bullets pierced the centipede's head.

Probably feeling that the same kind was slaughtered by humans, and the centipede, which was not hypnotized, fell into a rage.

These hideous and ugly centipedes gathered from other places and slaughtered everyone at an unimaginable speed. The centipede's eyes are blood-red, and its eyes are full of violence, and although its attack is monotonous, it is very difficult to deal with.

However, centipedes are difficult to deal with, but they are too vulnerable, and their HP and defense are extremely low. In this kind of open place, the effect of poisonous fog is greatly weakened, and the joint attack of everyone, especially the magic attack, they are not enough to justify. In the end, it only took ten minutes for these centipedes that broke into the house to be wiped out.

"Found the source!"

In a corner of the yard, the earth was turned over, and there were three or five cracks in the ground, from which the centipede should have been drilled. Zhang Mu blocked the cracks in the ground and asked Huangquan No. 1 to find and wait here, and then summoned all the mercenaries to leave the residence.

The darkness before dawn.

No one could sleep that night.

Zhang Mu led the crowd through a silent and deserted street, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

Four or five giant rats were startled by the crowd and jumped up and down the eaves, and in the darkness they saw only a pair of blood-red eyes. Yang Yi pulled his bow and shot one, and the other giant rats immediately scattered, and no one knew where to flee to even have a chance to attack.

Someone stepped on something and couldn't help but gasp, it was an arm that had been bitten off. Judging from the fracture, it was probably broken by the giant rat, and most of the meat was eaten, leaving only a little skin and flesh attached to the bones.

"It's not a way to go on like this, people are getting more and more panicked, and the monster tide hasn't officially broken out, and morale has fallen to the bottom." Zhang Mu turned back to Lei Ming and said, "Old Hei, gather all the mercenaries and assemble in the central square!" ”

"Yes!"

Lei Ming posted on the union forum, then took out a white horn and began to shout to the whole camp: "Attention of the major mercenary groups, due to the frequent incidents of monsters hurting people, they need to discuss countermeasures." Please gather at the central plaza! Repeat one side, the central plaza gather! ”

Zhang Mu and the Huangquan mercenaries came to the central square, and other mercenary groups came one after another, and within 1 hour, the square was full of people, and the major mercenary groups were basically all there. Including the Dragon Soul Mercenaries, Triumph Mercenaries and several other mercenary teams that have some festivals with Huangquan, after all, Zhang Mu is the president, and his call must be obeyed.

According to statistics, a total of 47 people were killed by monsters at night, which is better than most people imagined, probably the reason for people's high vigilance, but the number of seriously injured or disabled people is not a few, and they are currently in emergency treatment.

"From yesterday afternoon to today, there have been frequent incidents of monsters hurting people in the camp, which is a harbinger of the coming monster tide. In the next two days, monsters will invade the camp more and more frequently, and if we don't take corresponding countermeasures and precautions, we will have more and more casualties. ”

"So, what is President Zhang's arrangement?"

Huang Tian was also troubled by this, the Dragon Soul mercenaries lost three lives, and another seven or eight people were seriously injured, and now everyone in the mercenary group is in danger, even if they stay at home, they dare not relax their vigilance, and their spirits are highly nervous, for fear of being attacked by monsters.

Zhang Mu said: "As far as I know, the monsters that evade the eyes and ears of the gatekeepers and sneak into the camp are mainly the following. The first is a monster that burrows into the ground, the second is a spider and gecko that is good at climbing, and the third is a bat and ghost monster that is good at flying and stealth. It's not enough for the cyborgs to defend it, we also have to participate in the guard. ”

Huang Jianye nodded slowly: "If all the mercenaries are allowed to participate in the vigil, the safety factor will naturally be greatly improved." ”

"We need a lot of torches, and as long as the camp is lit all night, monsters will be hard to hide." Zhang Mu instructed everyone to prepare torches, and then continued: "In addition, all the mercenaries, divided into four squads, will be stationed near the camp wall, square, and various streets and alleys throughout the day, so that the entire camp is under our surveillance. In this way, even if a monster appears, we can be alert in time, judge the monster's movement, and facilitate hunting. ”

The streets, alleys, walls, rooftops, under the trees, in the squares, everywhere, were full of mercenary warriors armed with torches. Shifts are changed every few hours, so that the mercenaries can rest with peace of mind.

"We have to see things as they are, and we can't put too much energy into the little things in front of us. The root cause of all this is the scourge of the monster tide, and the current experience is only some harassment and warm-up. Before the monster tide comes, you must save enough energy and strength. ”

The monster tide may be the worst disaster to the Dawning Camp, and when life and death are at stake, the various mercenary groups have to put aside their grievances and work together to get through the difficulties.
