Chapter Twenty-Six: The Wrath of the Bugs
Moonlight roses bloom at night and can only be picked at night.
And the night is the world of evil beasts.
William didn't agree to pick the moonlight rose, he was stunned when he first found out, he originally had a premonition that it was a mistake to let Tang Qi and the others choose a task, but he didn't expect to take on a task that seemed impossible to him.
Tang Qi didn't flinch in his dictionary, he was not reckless, but he dared to fight, and although he was a little impulsive about the Moonlight Rose mission, he was also eager to try.
Fuyana lay on the stone platform, holding a charcoal pen and drawing a map on the paper, on which the danger zone was carefully drawn, and a winding path led to the depths of the gravel plain, blowing away the soot, "This is the best route, don't wander around...... Are you sure you want to go alone?"
"Hmm. ”
Tang Qi put on his equipment, glanced at the map twice, and stuffed it into his arms.
"Actually, I'd better go with you. Fuyana hesitated for a moment and said, Tang Qi touched her head, it was more convenient to go alone.
Flipping open the tent door and sneaking out of it, Donkey climbed down the rock and disappeared from sight as Fuyana and William watched. At this time, I went on the road, and when I arrived at my destination, it was almost night, so I could rush back as soon as possible.
"He'll be fine. William worried.
"No, it won't. ”
Fuyana pursed her lips, her pretty face could not hide her sadness, that road should be very safe, but in the wild at night, who knows what will happen......
......
As dusk approached, it was already a little dark, and there were bursts of beast roars from the empty plains, which was terrifying.
After Tang Qi left William and Fuyana's sight, he did not rush to go, but leaned on a boulder and looked into the distance, and soon, a black dot appeared in the distance, rushing over, like an elf on the plain, extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Tang Qi.
It's the Winter Wolf.
The huge wolf head threw itself into Tang Qi's arms, not at all as fierce as the winter wolf, Tang Qi smiled and rubbed its wolf hair, the winter wolf was the one he relied on when he dared to walk through the plains at night, the winter wolf who had taken the ice lizard flower was a hegemon on the edge of the gravel plain.
Ever since he decided to pick the Moonlight Rose, he had sent the Winter Wolf here.
"I was in a hurry last time, so I didn't name you, so I'll call you Xiaodong in the future. Tang Qi laughed.
The Winter Wolf could not be exposed yet, which is why he rejected the suggestion of Fuyana's companions. The winter wolf leaned down slightly, Tang Qi turned over and sat up, there was no need for extra movements, and under the communication of taming the beast skills, the winter wolf ran.
Xiao Dong is bigger than other winter wolves, and his running speed is also faster, and the scenery on both sides is rapidly retreating, so fast that it is blurred, however, at such a speed Tang Qi did not feel cold, he lay on the winter wolf, the thick wolf hair wrapped him, the posture was a little indecent, but it was indeed warm.
Tang Qi went out in the afternoon, and waited for the winter wolf to wait until it was close to dusk, although he walked a little late, he rode the winter wolf very quickly, and finally arrived at the destination in advance.
This road is actually not peaceful, the route chosen by Fuyana does not involve the territory of the evil beast, but it is inevitable to encounter the evil beast that feeds, the evil beast and the human have always been mortal enemies, even if they ride the winter wolf, those evil beasts that originally encountered the winter wolf and had to go around dare to show their fangs at it.
However, courage does not bring strength, and in the end, they either flee in embarrassment or die in the wolf's mouth, but unfortunately because there is still a long way to go, the smell of blood from the corpse will bring trouble, and the winter wolf can only be abandoned after a full meal.
The destination was easy to find, according to Fuyana, a canyon, and the only canyon on the gravel plains, not like a natural formation, but like it had been split by a sword.
The winter wolf stepped on the edge of the canyon, and Tang Qi sat upright on the wolf's body.
The crescent moon hangs high, the white wolf, the handsome young man, like a frozen oil painting, but no one appreciates this scene, looking at the bottom of the canyon, Tang Qi felt trembling all over his body and trembling slightly, half excited, half frightened.
Although I had heard Fuyana say it for a long time, it was the scavenger that guarded the Moonlight Rose, an evil beast at the bottom of the food chain, like a worm with six legs, weaker than the firetail rat. However, the scavenging insects in the canyon in front of me were densely packed, almost crawling to the bottom of the valley, like a carpet.
How could there be so many scavenging insects, Tang Qi thought for a while, and suddenly it suddenly dawned on the migration of the scavenging insects' natural enemies, the crusty wild boar, giving the scavenging insects space to reproduce, and only then did this scene of scavenging insects crawling all over the mountains appeared.
After Tang Qi turned on his farsightedness, he soon saw a silver-white rose swaying in the wind on a rock at the bottom of the canyon, bathed in the moonlight, and the scavengers did not dare to get too close to it, and the scavengers were not interested in the moonlight roses, so they planted in the scavengers' nests to play a protective role.
But there are too many scavenging insects, Tang Qi smiled bitterly, unless the source palace is strong, don't want to rush in to pick, no wonder it is worth 100 points, even if ordinary people break through the obstacles to find here, a group of scavenging insects are like a mountain in front.
"I hope she's reliable. ”
Tang Qi asked the winter wolf to wait in place, untied the torch and lit it, and suddenly black smoke rose from it, mixed with an unpleasant smell.
Confirming the torch, Tang Qi took a deep breath and slid down the rock wall into the canyon, where a surprising scene appeared, and the tide of scavenging insects retreated into a clearing. The black smoke of the Red Devil Tree, soaked in the blood of the Iron Fist Orangutan and ignited, is the most disgusting thing for scavengers.
Tang Qi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk forward, waving a torch beside him and holding a dagger in his other hand.
At a distance of just 100 meters, Tang Qi broke out in a cold sweat, the Red Devil Tree burned fast, and the Moonlight Rose was close at hand. Tang Qi quickened his pace slightly, and the black smoke of the torches waved, and the scavenger retreated from a larger clearing.
The rustle of the insects was terrifying, and Donkey flipped over the rock, took out the wooden box in his pocket, and used a dagger to put the Moonlight Rose into the wooden box along with the rock underneath. When the lid was closed, the surrounding light dimmed for a moment, and then the rustling sound increased, and the scavenging insects became more active in the dark.
Tang Qi's scalp was numb, and he waved his torch to rush back, and just halfway through, a roar suddenly sounded in the canyon, and in an instant, the rustling sound disappeared......
Tang Qi was slightly stunned, his face suddenly turned white, and his feet suddenly burst out, like an arrow off the string.
And just as he raised his foot, there was a roar on the far rock wall on the left, and a scavenging insect with a diameter of 3 meters smashed through the rock wall. With its roar, the scavengers rioted, the black smoke completely lost its effect, and the scavengers spread like a fluctuating carpet.
It turns out that even if he has experienced the firetail rat tide, Tang Qi has a sense of suffocation, but his thinking is surprisingly calm.
At this time, less than 50 meters away from the canyon rock wall, Tang Qi pulled out a scorching totem from his back, and with a wave of his arm, the totem shot out and inserted into the ground 10 meters away in front of him, and then the blazing fire lit up, and a flame flew in the direction of Tang Qi, and finally landed on the ground and the flames splashed everywhere, igniting a piece of scavenging insects.
The firelight dissipated, and the ground was scorched.
Tang Qi stepped on the clearing, jumped forward, and when it fell again, the scorching totem lit up again, and the flames cleared a foothold.
