Chapter 177: The Battle of the Worms

A roar, the hurricane came from a distance, Feleg was anxious, and he howled again and again, and the hurricane came close in a blink of an eye, Maya was sharp and fast, and the short sword waved again and again, even the skin and flesh, and cut off six pieces of meat, the hurricane was unconscious, looked at Maya strangely, took a few steps back, Feleg hurriedly stepped forward to hug it, Maya took out the injury contract, and treated the hurricane, Feleg regretted calling it back.

Johnny picked up a piece of flesh with blood on it, and his face changed dramatically. Feleg was right, this thing actually corroded a hole in the flesh, and looking at the appearance of the war horse, it didn't hurt to rip off the flesh.

After calming down the hurricane and turning his head, Feleg's face changed again, and the black worm stepped on the fire, not caring about the high temperature of Feleg's fireball at all, even if it was directly hit, it was nothing to do, and continued to move forward, but it was the rough wood in the hands of the mercenary, and the effect was good.

But there are more and more insects, not to mention Feleg, even ordinary mercenaries, you can also see by the light of the fire, patches of insects, desperately crawling towards the camp, in some places, a thick layer has been laid.

Johnny also saw that something was wrong, these bugs were easy to kill, but there were too many of them, if it continued like this, the bugs were not killed, and people would have to get tired of playing first. The rough wood is not heavy, but it keeps smashing downward, and it won't be long before the arm will be sore and weak, and the swarm seems to have no end.

"Fetch the tools, dig a deep ditch" Johnny ran to the tent, and after a while, he took out a large bundle of tools, this time the Tempest Mercenary Regiment was to mine gold ore, so he brought a lot of tools.

The mercenaries took off their armor and picked up their tools, and the twenty strong men worked fast, this is a different battlefield, time is life.

Half an hour later, the people in front of him were already a little unstoppable, and Feleg took turns attacking all kinds of magic, but these black insects seemed to be exempt from the magic element, whether it was water, fire, ice, or even meteorite smashing, it didn't work.

"Hell, what's going on? Wood can kill them, but meteorites can't kill them?" Feleg felt powerless for the first time. In the past years, no matter how difficult it was, no matter how strong the enemy, the role of magic had not changed, but this time, everything was different.

Feleg had to pick up the rough wood and join the ranks of smashing insects, the overwhelming magic was ineffective, which was equally huge to the warriors of the Tempest Mercenary Regiment, everyone was sweating, some were tired, and some were in a hurry.

"Stand back, stand back......," Johnny shouted, and the crowd jumped over a trench half a meter wide and half a meter deep to retreat into the second line of defense, holding on to the logs. Fortunately, the area of the camp is not large, otherwise they would not be able to complete this work in such a short period of time.

"We don't have enough water. One of the mercenaries shouted that the trench was finished, but everyone had only drinking water bladders, and the little water in them could only wet the trench at best.

"No need for water. Maya said, looking for a weapon to hand in. Soon he took a fancy to a small tree, more than four meters tall and only two arms thick.

"Cut it down. "It was obviously not a good idea to cut down the tree with a sword, so the mercenaries took out their axes and cut off the small tree in two or three blows.

"Cut into three. Maya ordered again, and since her previous orders were correct, the mercenaries carried out her orders well, even if they didn't know why.

"Keep cutting down trees...... "Maya stopped at this point, everyone was already trapped in a small area in the camp, there was a tree more than ten meters away, but the tree was already covered with black insects, and it was impossible to get through, this was the only small tree in the camp.

"Bugs know how to water, and it's useless to irrigate them, and when the bugs fall into the ditch, hit them with stumps, don't use stones, that will only speed up the filling of the trench. Only then did everyone understand that in fact, this reason was very simple, but everyone was in a hurry just now, and even Feleg didn't understand Maya's intentions.

There were no more trees to be found in the camp, and the sword was of little use, and it was evident that the trench could not be guarded by three stumps.

The ditch half a meter deep is too shallow for people or other animals, but it is too deep and wide for insects, Feleg said in his heart: "Hold the trench, they will not be able to pass for a while, except for the person who took the stump, the others use their swords to sweep back the insects that climb up." ”

Since there was no better way, Johnny and the mercenaries chose to follow the orders of the magician, after all, the magician is a symbol of wisdom. Johnny also glanced back at Maya, the little girl was also very smart.

This trench is not deep, plays a good protective role, first a large number of black insects fell into the ditch, it is not easy to climb up, each section of the ditch guards a person, under the light of the torch, will kill every insect that dares to climb up, or sweep back into the ditch.

There are clever mercenaries, who use branches to make rudimentary broomsticks, which are more effective, and although they cannot kill insects, they can hold a large section of the ditch.

There are a lot of bugs, but it's impossible to fill the entire trench. And these insects seem to have wisdom, and after falling into a batch of insects in the ditch, the insects behind the face refuse to continue into the ditch

It is to wander on the other side of the ditch, trying to find a way to pass.

"I need to catch a bug and see what it is. Feleg breathed a sigh of relief, just now he was in a hurry, constantly waving the wood, his arms were sore, and the magician was still not as strong as the samurai in terms of physical strength.

Maya nodded, she was just as strange that the black worm was not afraid of magic. She grew up with Lu Lingfeng, and she can be said to be well-informed, and she has never heard of such a creature. Even demonic beasts are also afraid of magic, but they are like magicians, they have magic shields and can resist magical attacks.

The short sword was picked up in the ditch, and two black worms were picked up on the spine of the sword, and the black worms seemed to feel danger and lay motionless on the back of the sword.

The two watched by the light of the fire, and Johnny came over as well. The insects are all the same, except that these two seem to be stronger.

Suddenly, the worm fell off the spine of the sword and fell to the ground. Maya exclaimed, "Ah, what's going on. "Her sword is very stable, any martial saint can hold the sword flat to maintain stability, even if it is motionless for more than ten hours. And the bug didn't move, why did it fall?

"My sword. Maya exclaimed again, she was no ordinary girl, not only was she not afraid of bugs, but she was not scared by anything.

"Ah......h That's right, the bug didn't move, and Maya's flat sword didn't move, and the bug passed through the thick blade and fell to the ground, leaving two holes in the short sword.

"Impossible?" Feleg looked stupid, the sword in Maya's hand, but he refined it with his own hands, it was all composed of memory metal, not to mention insects, even if it was a sword made of iron mother, it was impossible to pierce a hole in the back of the sword.

Snatching the short sword in Maya's hand, through the hole in the back of the sword, you can clearly see the ground, Feleg brought the sword in front of his eyes, and smelled a strange sour smell, very strong.

"Corrosion, it's corrosion, this bug is very corrosive. Johnny cried out, the two of them three paces apart, and he could smell the sour smell too.

Mercenaries travel from south to north, and they have seen a lot of strange things. Johnny remembers that there was a plant that could emit such a sour smell that it could corrode a person or livestock into a pile of white bones.

"Corrosion, paralysis?" Feleg thought for a moment, but he was afraid that it was not only corrosion, but also that this black worm had the effect of paralyzing people, making people unconsciously corrode their wounds by it.

"I know how those people died. Maya said with a sigh.

"Oh?" Feleg has always wondered about this question, the wounds corroded by the worms on the human body are not very deep, it stands to reason that even if there are hundreds of such wounds on the body, they will not die, and the corroded wounds will hardly bleed, and it is impossible to die from excessive blood loss.

Maya nodded: "The paralysis you said reminded me that the muscles and blood vessels near the wound are paralyzed, just like your wound, there is no feeling around the wound. ”

But now Feleg is not concerned about how people die, but about this little thing, which can actually corrode memory metal, looking at the short sword in his hand, I don't know if it can slowly recover.

After taking a short piece of wood, Feleg carved a wooden bowl with his sword, and then picked two insects in, and the effect was the same, but in a moment, the wooden bowl was corroded into two holes, and the black worm died.

Ordinary iron, even worse, after dropping a helmet, Feleg can only give up temporarily, don't look at the insects are not big, but they are extremely difficult, and it is so difficult to catch two alive.

"Try this. Maya said, handing over a small porcelain vase, with a small mouth, a slightly larger belly, and a fragrance.

"This ...... Is it incense?" Feleg looked inside the bottle, it was empty, and it was supposed that Maya had emptied the contents. The time spent with Maya was not short, and Feleg had never seen her use such a thing.

"Well, it turned out to be filled with incense powder, but I never used it, my sister gave it to me, and I kept it in the ring. Maya smiled sweetly, after advancing to a martial saint, she rarely felt that she was still a girl, until she met Feleg, she did not change.

Feleg picked up the two black worms again, carefully put them into the bottle, after a while, the worms did not fall out again, looking in from the mouth of the bottle, the two bugs crawled in the bottle, it seems that the porcelain bottle can effectively prevent them from escaping, and can block their corrosiveness, this discovery is very useful.

"Whoever has porcelain, any kind of porcelain, bowls, bottles, etc. Feleg shouted loudly, Maya's vase was too small.

Johnny walked over, glanced at the worm in the bottle, already understood, and said with an embarrassed face: "I'm afraid that there is no porcelain, we are mercenaries, we use iron guys for dinner, porcelain is fragile, only nobles will use things that are expensive and not strong enough." ”
