Chapter 300: Legacy 14
After all, the width of the road is not infinite, not all white beetles can stick to the sphere steadily, when the huge white ball begins to roll, at the edge of the sphere, there will be many white beetles falling into the waterhole on the side every moment, but no matter how much it falls, the next moment there will be more white beetles to replenish it, making the white ball roll bigger and faster.
The first white beetles that fell into the water quickly surfaced with their bellies turned upside down, but as more and more beetles fell into the water, soon white beetles began to be able to move on the surface of the water relying on the corpses of their companions, and this white beetle became more and more, and began to slowly spread to the area where the dead voice crocodile was located.
After a while, a dead crocodile that stayed on the periphery couldn't bear it, and re-emerged from the water, twisted its body wildly, and pressed the white beetle that crawled on its body into the water, but then more white beetles crawled onto its body, dense, like a round and chubby giant silkworm cocoon, and constantly made disgusting biting sounds, which made people shudder. Then, one after another, the dead crocodiles jumped out of the water, but they were crushed by the countless white beetles, and the whole pool began to churn as if it had been boiled.
At this time, Gehr didn't have time to pay attention to what was happening to the dead sound crocodile, so he just ran forward, but as the ball of white beetles behind him continued to grow, the distance between the two sides was quickly shortened, and the shadow brought by the ball covered Gehr, and the hissing crawling sound seemed to echo in the back of his head, making him feel uncontrollable.
Fortunately, he set off early, and had already run out of the middle of the cave when the white beetle came up. Although the white beetle swarm was faster than him, it was not to the extent of crushing him. It's just a line faster than him, and the length of this cave is there. That wasn't enough distance for the white beetle to catch up with him before he entered the passage filled with devouring mist.
Soon, Gehr finally returned to the passage out of the cave. Plunged headlong into the unfathomable darkness ahead.
Whew!
With the sound of heavy breathing, Gehr did not relax because he entered this darkness, and continued to run forward with some heavy steps.
Just when he ran more than ten meters in the passage, the ground under his feet suddenly trembled violently, and even he was a little staggered.
Suddenly, Gell felt as if he had been hit by something on his back, and then an unbearable pain came over him, and he kept burrowing into the flesh, making him grunt. Directly stabbed the dagger backhand into his back, without any pause under his feet, and immediately ran again after restabilizing his body.
The tremor on the ground seemed to be an accident, and it didn't happen again until Gehr ran back to the teleportation hall.
Running from the darkness back to the light, Gehr's eyes narrowed.
After a while, after getting used to the light, Gell glanced vigilantly at the place, where the corpse of the dead crocodile was still lying quietly where he had been before leaving. There was no sign of movement other than the blood clotting.
This is an "early warning device" specially placed by Gehr, even if the most valuable part of this dead crocodile corpse has been taken by Gehr and Dilansina successively, the remaining bones, minced meat and the like still have a lot of value. As long as someone else comes in, they won't miss it.
Seeing that there was no sign of anyone else entering, Gehr breathed a sigh of relief. Quickly take off the equipment on your body one by one, in order to avoid touching the dagger stuck in your back. simply tore off the innermost apprentice's robe and threw it off, revealing the strong and elite naked body inside. Then he walked to the corner of the room. He took out the backpack he had hidden there, opened it, bent down and took out a tube full of blackish potions from it, and uncorked the bottle.
Straightening up, Gell reached behind him with his right hand and backhanded the dagger that was still stuck in his back.
Poof!
The dagger was in his hand, and a cross was drawn directly in the flesh, causing the blood under the skin to spurt out at once, and at this time, Gehr also pulled out the dagger and threw it forward, and a white beetle was suddenly thrown to the ground, making a snapping sound.
The white beetle landed on his back when the ground trembled, and it was supposed that the white ball was thrown in after hitting the mouth of the passage, and it happened that this one hit him. This white beetle is extremely vicious, as soon as it touches the skin and flesh, it will desperately drill into it, if it is not for Gehr's instant decision, it is not possible to be drilled into the internal organs by this white beetle at once, in that case, the problem is serious.
Although Gehr couldn't see the injuries behind him, he knew very well how ruthless he was, almost piercing the muscle layer and injuring the internal organs, plus the cutting flesh and white beetle in the back, it was even more injured, if anyone could see his back, he would only see a blur of flesh and blood.
Gehr hurriedly poured the black potion in his hand on the wound on his back.
Hiss~~
A burst of white gas evaporated from the place where the potion came into contact with flesh and blood.
Gehr's eyes narrowed slightly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
The potion was quickly poured, Gehr covered the wound with one hand, grabbed a bandage with the other, and after three minutes, Gell released the wound and quickly wrapped the bandage around the wound several times.
After taking care of the wound, Gehr moved a few times, and after making sure that it would not affect his movements too much, he put on his equipment again, and finally took out a new black cloak to cover the outside, so that others would not see his wounds.
At this time, Gehr had time to see what he had come out of his desperate efforts.
There are a total of six Lorraine crystals in the cloth bag, although due to the hurry, these Lorraine crystals were directly cut off from the stipe, giving up the most precious part of the roots, but even if the medicinal effect of the other parts is worse than the roots, the gap is very limited, and it is still worth it in exchange for a safe time.
Setting up the Lorraine Crystal, Gell looked at the book that had triggered the real defenses here.
Gehr pinched the book, the texture was very thin and soft, I don't know what kind of creature it was made of, and it was as light and silky as a stack of fine cloth in his hand, and there was almost no weight.
When I opened it, I saw that the content inside was exactly the same as the characters on the cover. Gehr found that he could not read at all, so he shoved the book into his arms. I'll find a way to translate when I get out.
At this moment, Gehr's gaze moved to the white beetle on the ground, although the abdomen had been cut through the front and back, but the arthropods were still scratching from time to time. After thinking about it, he took out a box, smashed the white beetle into it, and put the box in his backpack along with the cloth bag containing the Lorraine crystals.
Carrying his backpack, Gehr checked it, and after making sure that there was no omission, he looked at the passage behind him, although he had escaped the pursuit of the white beetle before, his heart was still heavy, and the sense of oppression that represented danger had never been reduced. And it is getting heavier and heavier, as if it had been a dark cloud that was only a sign of impending rain, but now it has become a horror before the arrival of a superstorm, giving Gehr the illusion that he is a dehydrated fish.
"Can't stay, it doesn't feel right. ”
Although it would have been a good choice to stop here and recuperate, Gehr chose to leave immediately, and he had always preferred to believe his instincts rather than what he didn't.
Like Dilansina, she opened the portal and slipped into it. When his vision returned to normal again, it was already the same altar room where Luke and Barnsley had opened the three portals.
Glancing around, Gell walked out along the passage from which he had come, and soon disappeared into the darkness of the passage.
......
About ten minutes after Gehr left through the portal. Suddenly, there was an unprecedented movement in the passage that would be dark and silent forever.
Knock! knock......
Like a drum, like a heartbeat amplified by a hundredfold, it sounded out of the passage one after another. Unexpectedly, he broke through the barrier of devouring mist.
Just as the sounds began to coalesce, the fog in the passage began to thin at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, there was less and less fog. Something could be seen moving in the darkness that was still struggling to maintain.
The devouring fog in the passage became less and less, and the light in the room could finally enter the passage. Finally, at the moment when the fog was all gone, a pile of beetles that was full, even piled up to the point of reaching the ceiling of the passage, appeared in the passage.
These beetles were different from the previous ones, their bodies were patched black, as if they had been dripped with ink, and these beetles were stiff and motionless, obviously losing their vitality.
Suddenly, the beetle corpse swelled a little, as if something wanted to protrude from it. As time passed, the protruding part grew larger and larger, and when it reached its extreme, the pile of beetle corpses collapsed from the middle part, and the white beetle torrent poured out like a flood into the teleportation room.
Layers of white beetles spread repeatedly in the room, and soon the room was filled and increased in height, until before the teleportation altar, a figure slowly rose from the beetle pile and stood on top of the beetle pile.
"He" was naked, as white as the beetles beneath him, including his hair. And "his" pupils and the rest of his body are the same color, and if it weren't for those two shallow frames, it would be almost impossible to tell that this is the eye.
"He" stretched out his hand, and the "skin" began to squirm, and countless white beetles descended from under "his" hand, revealing the pale tendons and muscles inside, and every minute was clearly visible, like a human anatomical model made of plaster.
Soon, countless white beetles crawled from "his" feet all the way down "his" body to "hands", filling in the missing parts like clay, and turning into intact skin again.
And "he" also had a tattered gray cloth robe in his hand, which was the same apprentice robe that Gehr had thrown down.
The figure seemed to be staring at the cloth robe for a long time, and it had been standing still for a long time, as if it had turned into a statue.
Finally, the figure moved again.
"He" opened his mouth violently, like a snake, to an angle that normal people could not reach, revealing the mouth with dense white beetles crawling inside, and then stuffed the cloth robe inside.
Click!
Cracks appeared in all the walls of the room, and they quickly multiplied, and soon spread to the part where the lighting crystal was.
There was a clattering cracking sound, countless crystal powders swayed out, and all the light sources in the room disappeared in an instant, completely plunging into darkness. (To be continued......)
