Chapter 193: The Centipede King
By the time everyone was drying their clothes, it was getting dark, and it was no longer possible to look for soul fragments, so they would spend the night under the stone wall. The www.biquge.info day of the pen "Fun" Pavilion soon darkened, and the wind under the canyon was extremely strong, and the cold wind was biting, and people couldn't stand it. Dante fetches a pile of wet firewood and places it around the campfire, so that he doesn't have to look for firewood when the night comes.
Everyone was tired for a day, and they gathered around the campfire without saying a word, and they were too sleepy to lean on the stone wall and fell asleep. The genius was hazy and everyone got up early in the morning, all of them were awakened by the cold, and by this time the bonfire had burned out, and everyone sorted out their things, and hurried on the road to find the soul fragments.
The fog in the morning was so great that it was impossible to see anything two feet away, and soon everyone's clothes were wet again, and it was bitterly cold.
"What a damn place, the fog is unbearable!" "Nanaya shivered, and his face was full of moisture.
The others did not speak, but walked silently, enduring the cold. The five of them walked under the canyon for about a few hours, it was tired and cold, the fog had cleared, and they could see the scenery not far away, when the surrounding bushes fell one after another, scratches everywhere on the ground, and a strong fishy smell came to the nostrils, which could not help but make everyone vigilant.
Dante vigilantly took out two daggers and squeezed them in his hands: "Be careful, everyone, something is wrong here!"
Seven Nights raised his eyes and couldn't help but wonder what was it that made these bushes like this, could it be the Centipede King, and if so, then things would be bad.
"We'll have to take a detour!" said Lena nervously.
Before Rena's words could fall, Dante suddenly lost his voice and shouted, "Be careful, it's behind you!"
Everyone couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and when they looked back, they found that a behemoth appeared in everyone's sight, an ugly face, slender tentacles wriggling around, and huge fangs showed sharpness.
"Centipede Kingโ" Qi Sixian cried out in a lost voice, "Run!"
Before Qi Sixian's words fell, the centipede king had already pounced on her, and Qi Sixian ran away. The centipede king came very fast, and immediately pounced in front of him, biting Qi Sixian, and tearing the clothes around her violently, Qi Sixian almost fell to the ground.
Seeing Qi Sixian falling behind the team, Qiye couldn't help but feel anxious for a while, but he was helpless. After running dozens of feet away, Qi Sixian's feet slipped, and the whole person lost his balance and fell to the ground heavily.
Sixian-Lena was surprised, only to see the centipede king mercilessly pounce on Qi Sixian, open his huge mouth and bite Qi Sixian who fell to the ground, Qi Sixian was frightened for a while, closed his eyes and didn't dare to think about what happened next. Just when the centipede king bit Qi Sixian's stall, Dante jumped high, his body fell on the centipede king's back a few flips, pinched the two daggers in his hand and stabbed at the centipede king's body, only to hear a local sound, the dagger was like a stab on a hard rock, the two daggers bounced up violently, lost from Dante's hand, Dante suddenly felt bad, so hard shell!
The Centipede King noticed movement on his back, and suddenly turned his head to look at Dante, who was at this stall, and Qiye flew up violently and pulled Qi Sixian up, which allowed her to escape.
Finding someone standing on his back, the centipede king was furious, and threw Dante out with a sharp flick of his body, and Dante staggered and flew towards a bush two feet away. Dante rolled several times before stopping, and as soon as he looked up, a huge mouth of the centipede king was already rushing towards him, and a fishy smell made Dante vomit in disgust.
Dante jerked up from the ground and dodged the centipede king's blow, and when Dante stood still, his first thought was to flee into the distance, but he noticed a sharp pain in his right foot, and when he looked intently, he found that the flesh of his calf was torn open, and there was a trickle of blood.
Before Dante could take care of his wounds, the Centipede King roared at him, forcing Dante to grit his teeth and run quickly in the direction the others had fled. Dante's right leg ached with every step he took, and the blood almost soaked the shoe on his right foot.
Glancing back at Dante, Lena couldn't help but feel worried, his expression a little painful, but she couldn't help in this situation.
The Centipede King crawled so fast that the place he passed was razed to the ground, and the fishy smell of his exhalation hit Dante's back, but Dante was unusually calm in this situation, and he kept running around the tall and dense bushes to slow down the Centipede King's pursuit. The ground was extremely slippery, and with another leg injury, Dante couldn't run easily, and he could fall to the ground at any moment, and if he did, it would be completely over!
"Hurry up and find a way, if you run like this again, sooner or later you will become its belly!" Lena palpitated.
"There's no better way than to escape, unless there's a turnaround!" Maya said in a panic.
The centipede king chased after Dante, Dante was so tired that he couldn't breathe, if he didn't want to find a way to come, he couldn't support it, he looked into the distance, and found that there was a huge cave not far away, dozens of zhang wide and high, the entrance of the cave grew tall trees, and vines were crawling everywhere, which was gloomy.
Dante had no better choice: "Run to the cave, there may be our way out!"
When the others heard Dante say this, there was no other way but to take one step at a time, and they all ran towards the cave. Seeing Dante running towards the cave, the Centipede King became even more angry, and chased after Dante with a roar, and almost bit Dante several times.
Approaching the entrance of the cave, Dante jumped for a while, climbed up the cave, and when the five people entered the cave, they were surprised to find that the centipede king stopped in front of the cave with great interest, staring at everyone with extremely unwilling eyes, and looked at it for a long time before gradually receding, and suddenly everyone was puzzled, whether there should be any secrets in this cave, or what is more ferocious than the centipede king.
The five of them finally stopped to catch their breath, found some dry firewood, lit a bonfire to keep warm, and simply ate some dry food. Dante simply sprinkled pain-relieving medicine on his injured leg and it didn't matter. The cave was extremely dry, and it was warm for a while, which made everyone feel at ease and avoid the possibility of cold.
"I'm so tired enough, finding the seven soul shards is harder than we thought!" Lena sighed, the warm campfire made her feel a lot more at ease.
"Yes, I don't know how much suffering we have to endure is the end, today alone is enough for us, and I don't know if the centipede king is guarding us outside the cave!"
"Do your best! This kind of life is very hard, and ordinary people can't stand it. Dante said lightly, a wave of worry written on his face.
"If you have chosen, there is no other way to go. Maya said as she folded her hands around her chest, her gaze fixed on the jumping flames, as if thoughtful.
Qi Sixian was silent, frowning, she didn't know if her decision was correct, and whether it was worth it to suffer with Qiye.
Sitting around the campfire, everyone looked at each other without saying a word, and it was soon getting dark, and there was a dead silence in the cave, and Dante hurried around to find some dry wood. Shortly after dark, Dante, who had only been lying down for a short time, suddenly smelled a fishy smell, which was extremely solemn, and he could be sure that it was the smell of centipedes, and it should be the centipede king who came to the door.
Dantin's sense of discomfort quickly woke up the others.
"It's so strong, it's disgusting!" Lena woke up and couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach, "Shouldn't the Centipede King sneak attack us at night!"
"It stinks!" Maya covered her nose and was almost out of breath.
"I seem to hear something squirming!" Qiye said and picked up a burning firewood and shone it into the distance, I don't know it, I was startled, the surrounding stones were densely crawled with centipedes, and the centipedes were moving towards everyone, Qiye's first feeling was that it was bad, and everyone was not sleeping well, it seemed that they couldn't sleep peacefully tonight!
