Chapter 561: Mutant Bugs
"Ma Ti, why are you sick too?" The leader of the guards, who heard the coughing sound, looked back at the leader of the investigation team and said, "Or is there something wrong with you?" ”
"As mercenaries, we shouldn't drink other people's wine." Ma Ti said.
"You're really sick, is your employer someone else?" The leader of the guard frowned, he looked at the forty members of the investigation team and said, "Don't worry, you don't contribute to the musket team, so don't worry, you don't have your share." ”
"You!" Ma Ti's face changed when he heard this, he wanted to argue, but seeing that the brothers around him didn't seem to support him, he quickly stopped the dispute, he lowered his head and turned to the side, and found that many people were dissatisfied with him.
"As a mercenary, you have to familiarize yourself with the mercenary manual." Ma Ti muttered.
"The manual still says how to become the king of mercenaries, have you become it?" Mike, the leader of the guards, snorted coldly, then looked at the large investigation team behind him, "Do you want a drink?" ”
"Of course! Captain, are we okay with a drink? A group of improvised scattered people showed respect and symbolically asked the head of the group.
"We're just a temporary group, if anyone wants to drink, let's go." Seeing this, the head of the regiment did not want to offend people.
A group of mercenaries ran forward with cheers, and of course there were many self-disciplined mercenaries who did not pass, including Beric and Burrilang.
"I thought you two were going to go over for a drink." Tusese looked at the two brothers in some surprise.
"Even if it's the food of your comrades, don't eat it if you don't see it cooked with your own eyes." Hearing this, Polyk shook his head slightly, "I've been a mercenary for a few years, and I've seen a lot of things. ”
Hearing this, he nodded, silently took out his beef jerky and beer and drank it, while admiring the mercenaries who drank and had fun like an outing, Beric and Burrilang beside him saw that the food was very fragrant, they all stared at his hands, and their throats couldn't help but swallow.
"You didn't see my cooking, don't eat it." He poured himself a sip of wine and said.
"Our relationship is different from theirs, you are like my own brother in my heart." Hearing this, Beric couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed the beef jerky and sent it to his mouth, and the pent-up appetite of those days in the fog finally exploded.
After resting for a long time, the merchants were able to walk normally, they returned to the car, the guards also set off, and the others naturally followed.
"It doesn't feel like there's a problem, we seem to be missing out on the special." Berik, who was on his horse, said to Berlilang.
"Maybe it wasn't at the time, maybe it wasn't there, but you have to be careful in everything, brother, you taught me." Bethleon said like a saint.
"Well, I didn't really think about it." Hearing this, Beric touched his stomach, and the two of them ate most of the jerky, and it was the time when they had no desire and no desire.
Thirty miles to the east, the party soon saw some free settlements, and they entered the countryside of Mokoling.
On the way, on more than one occasion they met the madmen who were sitting at the intersection of the village and muttering to themselves, but the caravan in front did not stop, and the people of the investigation team did not go down to ask questions, but when they reached Mokoburg, the commander of the regiment, who had been watching the scenery, spoke.
"Something is wrong, there are too many crazy people here." The regimental commander said as he looked at the aggressive and non-aggressive.
"And you don't find out, they still eat bugs." The mercenary next to the regiment commander waved his hand away the desert pest that hit his face, and pointed to a group of crazy people who were sitting in a circle to catch insects and eat them.
"Could it be that the bug is poisonous?" He asked aloud.
"The magicians of the imperial capital have studied catching insects, and like the insects of previous disasters, they are not poisonous." The regimental commander still had a good eye on this mercenary who solved the problem of the musket team, and he patiently replied, "If it's a mutant, it's bad." ”
Berik, who was listening to them on the side, moved his ears, and saw a flying insect buzzing towards him, and then snapped and slapped the insect to death, then looked at the palm and frowned, "I seem to have seen a mutant bug." ”
"Huh?" When a group of people heard this, they hurriedly leaned over to him, and saw that it was a bug that was very similar to a desert pest, the only difference was that its teeth were colorful red.
"What a weird bug, what kind of species is this?" The head of the regiment picked up the insect and put it in front of his eyes to check it, then raised his head and shouted, "Captain Mati, come and take a look!"
Ma Ti, who was marching in front, turned his head with a stunned face when he heard this, and everyone could only run over when they saw this, and when they saw his appearance, the regiment commander frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Nothing, just a sense of uneasiness, and I'm wondering why." Ma Ti shook his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"You've been a mercenary for a long time, see if you can recognize what it is?" The regimental commander asked, carrying the worm.
"I don't know, it's supposed to be a variant of bugs, after all, with such a large base of pests, it's normal for one or two of these things to appear." Ma Ti said and raised his wrist, "I just got bitten by this bug, and I have taken an antidote, but looking at the appearance of the wound, maybe he is not poisonous." ”
"Oh, is it? I thought we had made a new discovery. The regimental commander wrapped the bugs and said, then looked in a certain direction and raised his eyebrows, "But it's too far-fetched for you to say that there are one or two bugs." ”
When they heard this, they looked in the direction he had looked, and they saw a swarm of insects with red teeth flying towards this direction like wasps.
"Oh! Damn it! Alert! That bug bites!"
The regimental commander shouted loudly, then put on his veil, and the other mercenaries also put on their headscarves when they heard this, and then lit torches or directly put insect repellent smoke.
"Buzz~"
"Whew~"
The swarm attacked, but it wasn't enough to swallow the whole team, and the attack of the bugs was quickly broken down by the neighing of the horses and the wielding of torches, but one thing was noticed, and that was that the redfangs were more resistant to poison than the greenfangs.
"Has anyone been hurt? The injured take the antidote, and if there is no antidote, squeeze the wound and spit. The regimental commander extinguished the torch and opened the scarf and shouted, but no one in the team responded, only a small beep.
"Shouting so heroically, I thought I would send an antidote."
"Big brother, temporary group, who will really care about you."
"It's okay, a bug bite can't kill a person, and it's not a poisonous snake."
"Eh, did you notice that the group in front of you weren't attacked?"
"Is there one? Actually, the bugs didn't hit me just now. ”
"You're in luck."
The regimental commander listened to the voices around him and did not speak again, but frowned and looked at the caravan in front of him, and poured two drops of wine on the struggling bug in his hand with a beer, but the bug was still alive.
"Isn't it enough for you to finish your wine?" Beric saw the movement and hurriedly stopped it, "Are you bathing it?" ”
"I thought that those who were troubled could be relieved by wine." Hearing this, he blew the fire and lit up the worm, "But it doesn't seem to be." ”
