Chapter 96: The first time I went hunting alone in a secret realm (2)
She ran in the wilderness for a day. When it was almost evening, she was chasing a fat rabbit. She planned to kill it and find a place to camp.
The rabbit was unable to run after being chased by her and slowed down. Ye Nai raised his gun and shot, knocking him down with one shot.
Just as she ran forward to pick it up, she suddenly heard a gunshot and a bullet landed at her feet.
“Girl, that’s our rabbit, get away!”
Ye Nai stood up straight and looked back. There was a motorcycle, two men in leather clothes, and the one who shot was the person in the back seat.
When the two men saw Ye Nai's face clearly, they whistled twice.
“Yo, you’re still a young girl.”
“With such a big gun, will this girl know how to use a gun?”
“Would you like to try something better? Gun?”
"Haha... Ga..."
The laughter of the two men suddenly stopped as if their throats were suddenly strangled. They fell from the motorcycle to the ground in pain, opening their mouths wide, but they couldn't inhale. Air.
Ye Nai picked up her rabbit slowly.
Walk up to them again.
“Where are you from? What are you doing here?”
"Spare your life...spare your life..."
"Where are you from? What are you doing here?"
Ye Nai asked a second time.
The two men still tried hard to shout for mercy.
Ye Nai curled her lips impatiently, "Forget it, let's get on the road. Remember to be a polite person in the next life."
As soon as she finished speaking, the two people and their motorcycle disappeared on the spot and entered the space.
The two of them had a motorcycle and a long gun. Either there was a spacer among them who came out hunting with equipment, or there was a large team behind them that had just set up camp and came out to patrol. No matter what, the traces should be dealt with first.
The mycelium all over the ground guided Ye Nai to find a suitable campsite.
Just as she was lighting the camp lamp and packing up the tent, she heard the sound of cars and gunshots.
She quickly put the things into the space and hid them in the dead grass.
"Damn it, where did those two guys go?"
"The walkie-talkie keeps failing."
"Is something really wrong? Was it dragged away by a strange beast?"
>
"There are two of them, they have guns and cars. What kind of strange beast can knock them both down at once?"
"Living in groups?"
"Did you see traces of social animals?"
"It couldn't be that you ran away because you were afraid?"
"Never mind, you can't find it if you can't find it. Go back and say, Watch out for those laborers, don’t let them run away.”
“Let’s go, let’s go.” Forget it, if you don't earn this money, we can still get a little more."
"That's right, let's go." The sound of cars and voices gradually faded away, and Ye Nai walked out of the dead grass and released. A large number of supernatural spores caught up with the people in the car, leaving a hyphae signal, and then he chased them on a motorcycle.
Longing is the common name for porters in the secret realm. They earn money by selling their own strength. The price is one thousand a day. You need to collect the money first and then work. You are responsible for your life and death.
But when I heard that group of people talking just now, it seemed that the laborers they hired had other uses.
Of course Ye Nai wants to follow him and take a look.
After chasing for about a quarter of an hour, Ye Nai saw a brightly lit camp.
The camp was flat, and it looked like it was made with supernatural powers. All the dead grass that blocked the view had been cleared away, and Ye Nai hid far away so that no one could see it.
She observed with the telescope for a while and found that from the angle she could see, there were more than ten people patrolling back and forth.
“It looks like there is really a big move.”
Ye Nai muttered and released another wave of super-powerful spores, letting the newly grown mycelium surround the camp and search for What they want to hunt.
She wanted to see what good things she had discovered by being so prepared.
The growth and reproduction of mycelium takes time, so Ye Nai quietly retreated and came back tomorrow.
Before dawn, Ye Nai came back quietly. In one night, Mycelium completed the task and found the target that the people in this camp wanted to hunt.
Two kilometers away from the camp, there is a deep ditch that people can go down. In the ditch is a giant nest of fire ants.
Dao'e means that the ant's mouthparts look like a sickle. The compound knife means a double sickle. It is large and sharp and can easily cut off pieces of fresh meat. Whether animals or people encounter this ant, , they were all dismantled into clean skeletons in minutes, without even a trace of meat.
Such a ferocious ant also has economic value, because it is very big, with a body like a big flying cockroach in the south, so its pair of compound jaws and bright red hard shell are practical. .
When the hyphae reported that it was Fire Ant, Ye Nai felt that something was wrong. Those laborers were probably hired as bait.
Although there are many dangers in the secret realm, and everyone who enters is concerned about life and death, but deliberately using human lives as hunting bait, Ye Nai feels that it still exceeds the bottom line of human morality.
Although she has no bottom line and will kill people whenever she wants, she thinks she has one advantage, that is, she only attacks those who provoke her and never provokes others.
Ye Nai carefully bypassed the camp and headed straight for the deep ditch. Since she discovered it, it was hers.
The mycelium is already at work.
They invaded the giant ant nest, rushing in wave after wave like a tide. Any ant they encountered, regardless of size, was taken into the space for decomposition.
The ant nest extends in all directions, with more hyphae. When it encounters a fork in the road, it branches off, not missing any empty space, and goes straight to the queen's throne.
The white, tender and plump queen ant is no match for the mycelium. She dies immediately after entering the space, and mycelium grows densely on her body, like a fluffy ball.
Ye Nai, who was still on her way, suddenly paused. Mycelium took out a bright red heart core as big as a pomegranate seed from the queen ant's body. It was the largest heart core she had ever collected.
Ye Nai took out the heart core and held it in her hand for a moment. After feeling addicted to the eyes, she threw it back into the space without hesitation, allowing the mycelium to be digested and used to expand the volume of the space and eliminate the ants in the entire nest. Take away the whole brood and leave no one behind.
The core of the queen ant is indeed full of energy. In the past, the expansion of the space was silent. It is not that you can't find that it has expanded a little even if you measure it.
This time, Ye Nai clearly felt the space expanding.
Ye Nai took out the small box used to collect core cores in the space again, thought about it, and poured it into the space together to let all the mycelium be used up.
She collects this to satisfy her collecting habit, but she won't be stingy when it's time to use it.
Using it is for my own use, and I am not making it easier for others.
The larger the space, the more hyphae there are in the space, and the faster the prey is decomposed and digested. When Ye Nai finally ran to the deep ditch above the ant nest, the first batch of ants that came in only had valuable knives left. Jaw and bright red shell, as well as a small pile of formic acid glands.
This rapid speed made Ye Nai laugh out loud.
The ground is safe, and there are mycelium under the soil. Ye Nai sits here and takes out the food stored in the space to eat breakfast.
