Chapter 6: The Battle in the Rain
"The host's growth value is 12 points, and there are 88 points left before the advancement. Please keep up the good work. The system prompted calmly.
Lin Ye rested on the carapace of the ancient cockroach with his round belly, and in the fight with the ancient cockroach, he also tried out how lethal his flame feather cloak was. If the enemy has a heavy carapace, then his black flames will have little effect and will only weaken the carapace's defenses, and if the enemy does not have a carapace, the flames will be able to burn it to ashes.
Since you have become a bird, you have to live well the way of birds!
There are a lot of these ancient cockroaches, and although their physique is about the same as Lin Ye's, they are not Lin Ye's opponents with the flame feather cloak. Lin Ye wiped his mouth, jumping as he walked, keeping his eyes on the ground. The gloomy and damp place where fallen leaves were piled up, embedded in the cracks of the stones on the ground, as long as it was a place where ancient cockroaches might have appeared, Lin Ye searched carefully, and it didn't take a long time to search a hundred meters square.
A black tentacle shook in the mud, Lin Ye saw it at a glance, do you still want to hide in the ground? Get out of here! He rushed up with an arrow step and picked up the tentacle, and then lifted it violently. A large centipede with pure black tentacles and a red body was dragged out by Lin Ye. The centipede body is half a meter long, with more than a hundred legs, densely arranged together, with hideous black tentacles. Deadly green venom drips from its sharp jaws, expecting to plunge into the body of some daredevil.
The centipede hadn't reacted yet, and Lin Ye, who was the first to react, ran away!
In the blink of an eye, Lin Ye ran away, and the centipede was in place with a wooden pestle, and then the tentacles moved, and continued to dive into the mud to ambush him. The centipede hadn't noticed Lin Ye yet, and as a result, Lin Ye caught it off guard.
Lin Ye hid behind the dead wood, his breathing became short, and he almost lost his life because of this recklessness. It seems that the future is more cautious. A giant earthworm arches out of the ground, a purple ring bulging out of the front half of the earthworm's skin, as if preparing to lay eggs. Lin Ye unceremoniously pecked at the earthworm, but unfortunately he couldn't take the initiative to use the flame feather coat, otherwise he would be able to use the fire to make a delicious cooked meal.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye's willingness to advance was even greater.
He pulled through the dirt and pulled out several more earthworms, but he didn't have the appetite to eat them anymore.
The earthworm did not bring Lin Ye an increase in growth value, Lin Ye was already very full, and now he couldn't walk. He staggered through the path opened by the diplodocus and walked all the way back. The paws fell to the ground, and the smoke became heavy. As soon as Lin Ye raised his head, his face changed, and he immediately ran wildly.
The reason these earthworms came out of the ground was because it was going to rain!
Dark clouds piled up in the sky at some point, so heavy that they seemed to fall. Yellow lightning loomed in the dark clouds, flickering back and forth. With a thunderclap, a downpour of rain fell.
The bean-sized raindrops hit the fat maple leaves, and the splashes were still like bullets fired from machine guns, hitting Lin Ye's body with a faint pain.
In less than a moment, Lin Ye's fluff was wet and sticking to his body, looking like a chicken in soup.
"Didi, the Flame Feather Cloak is invalid, please upgrade your skill to D level, and the Flame Feather Cloak will be immune to the negative effects caused by liquids such as heavy rain. The system reminded at the right time.
Lin Ye was so overwhelmed by the heavy rain that he couldn't lift his head, and he moved quickly while taking shelter from the rain under the thick trees. Unlike the cautious advance before, Lin Ye, who was familiar with the terrain, went back dozens of times faster, and after just five minutes, he was back on the beach of Blood Moon Lake.
The [long-tongued sandworms] that were originally hiding behind rocks and buried in the sand disappeared without a trace.
These [long-tongued sandworms] are probably looking for a place to shelter from the rain like Lin Ye. Lin Ye's heart buzzed, shouldn't he run to his house. He had a heart, preferring to be drenched in the heavy rain for a while, and decided to go around a small circle along the door of his house, stretching the distance to observe carefully.
Under careful observation, Lin Ye found that there was no trace of sandworms passing through the entrance of the cave, but a pair of black tentacles poked out of the hole, shaking slightly, unlike centipedes, the tentacles were short and thick. Even though the torrential rain was pouring down, Lin Ye could see that it was an ancient cockroach.
An ancient cockroach actually occupied his home! Lin Ye was overjoyed, he couldn't find it just now, but now he took the initiative to send it to the door!
He approached the door as fast as he could, then repeated his old trick, jumped up and kicked the ancient cockroach away, kicking it away and tumbling with it into the depths of the cavern.
Under normal circumstances, the Ancient Cockroach was not Lin Ye's opponent, but the excited Lin Ye forgot one thing, that is, his Flame Feather Cloak was currently in a state of ineffectiveness.
He scuffled with the ancient cockroach, Lin Ye struck the ancient cockroach's head like a woodpecker, and the ancient cockroach also pounced on Lin Ye's body, biting Lin Ye's slender bird leg in one bite. The sharp pain made Lin Ye scream and make Lin Ye wake up.
Damn, my feather cloak of flame is ineffective!Lin Ye reacted as he used his short wings to block the cockroach's attack. But the cockroach seemed to know that Lin Ye wanted to escape, and the sturdy carapace blocked the hole to prevent Lin Ye from passing. Its mouthparts flowed with greedy saliva, and it seemed that it was going to use Lin Ye as food.
This immediately aroused Lin Ye's bloodiness, could a prey still turn the sky upside down!
He screamed, then spread his wings and rushed towards the ancient cockroach.
In a cave less than two meters long and less than two decimeters wide, a chick and a cockroach engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat. The ancient cockroach didn't seem to have any intention of letting out of the cave, and it blocked Lin Ye in the depths of the cave without retreating.
The fight lasted for ten minutes, and Lin Ye's fluff was covered with dust in the fierce fight. But because of this, the moisture on the fluff is wiped dry, and the long-lost system voice reappears:
"Didi! The Flame Feather Cloak has been back in effect. ”
Lin Ye was covered in bruises at the moment, his legs were bitten by cockroaches, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't exert his strength, and his wings were also drooping and out of strength. The body of the ancient cockroach was also full of cracks and holes pecked by Lin Ye, the most serious of which was the back of its head, and the pale green liquid flowed out along the carapace crack at the back of the head, which could be pierced with just a few more strokes. It's a pity that Lin Ye's strength is too small to kill the ancient cockroach with one blow.
When the voice of the system reached Lin Ye's mind, the ancient cockroach was pressing Lin Ye under him and biting Lin Ye's neck. At this moment, Lin Ye's black fluff surged towards the body of the ancient cockroach as if it had been ignited. And Lin Ye also took this opportunity to be unwilling to be pecked weakly. The ancient cockroach screamed in pain, and the black flames burrowed into its body along the cracks in the carapace, and under the attack of the flame feather coat on both sides, the ancient cockroach finally stopped moving, and its body was scorched, and there was no sound.
After killing this uninvited guest in the house, Lin Ye didn't even have the strength to enjoy the spoils of war, whether it was before or now, he had never experienced such a high-intensity continuous battle. There were several times when Lin Ye even thought that his life was in danger. At the critical moment, it was the Flame Feather Cloak that saved his life.
"The Flame Feather Cloak is Phoenix's most basic talent skill, and it is also the precursor skill of many derivative skills. Without the Flame Feather Cloak, the host's combat power will plummet by a notch. The growth system reminded "warmly" and "timely".
"Yes, your reminder is timely, and I have already tasted the bitter fruit. Lin Ye said angrily. He kind of realized the malice of the system.
The torrential rain poured down, and the surface of the Blood Moon Lake rose three meters high, almost reaching Lin Ye's house. Even though the rain was falling, the surface of the lake was still very calm, except for the ripples of the raindrops on the lake, the tentacles with blood-red compound eyes seemed to have disappeared, and never appeared.
No growth value is provided. Lin Ye moved to the edge of the ancient cockroach and pecked it, and after finding that he didn't get the hint of growth value, he suddenly felt bored.
Unlike the ancient cockroaches that preceded it, this dead prey did not provide Lin Ye with growth points.
Sure enough, the growth value is not so easy to earn.
Seeing that the lake had flooded the entrance of the cave, the water surface had flooded to Lin Ye's feet. Lin Ye finally understood the reason why the [Long-tongued Sandworm] did not occupy this cave to hide from the rain. He shook his messy feathers, straightened out his blood-stained fluff, and thought to himself that it was time to move.
