Chapter 940: The Terror Insect King (two chapters in one)
“Why are they rushing in that direction in such a hurry?”
The danger is temporarily lifted, and some color returns to Xiao Pingtian’s pale face. , and then looked at the brain-eating worms that were leaving quickly, full of confusion.
"Could it be that the Insect King you mentioned is about to be born there, and are they rushing over to protect the Insect King?" Lin Li said.
"It's...very possible." Xiao Pingtian's slightly relaxed expression suddenly became serious again after hearing what Lin Li said.
After all, although he had never witnessed the horror of the Insect King with his own eyes, the tragedy of his hometown was still vivid in his mind after so many years.
“Let’s go over and take a look?” Lin Li suggested as he looked at the brain-eating worms that were about to disappear.
“It’s too dangerous.” Xiao Pingtian shook his head, and then nodded again.
"What do you mean? Do you want to follow me and have a look?" Lin Li asked.
Xiao Pingtian said, "It's better to go over and have a look. The army outside the city probably doesn't know much about the situation here.
Although it is dangerous to follow him and take a look, if the situation of the Insect King can be known as soon as possible and then reported to the army outside, a lot of casualties can be reduced. "
Lin Li said with a smile, "You don't have to be so nervous. "
"Your mentality is quite relaxed. Aren't you afraid of death? "Xiao Pingtian asked.
This doubt in his heart has been going on for a while. From the time he came out with Lin Li to now, he has never noticed that Lin Li looked panicked along the way.
According to common sense, panic is a normal reaction when encountering such a dangerous thing. He has been very calm, but it seems a bit special.
Lin Li replied with a smile, "Everyone is afraid of death, but I have always cherished my life, so I am also afraid of death."
Xiao Pingtian was surprised by Lin Li's outspokenness, because it was the first time for him Hearing someone say so frankly that he is afraid of death.
However, during this period of contact, he did not feel any fear from Lin Li.
When those brain-eating insects with second-level strength approached just now, Xiao Pingtian was extremely frightened, but Lin Li acted very calmly.
Comparing the two, the different reactions can be said to be worlds apart.
"You said you were afraid of death, but I didn't feel that you had any fear at all." Xiao Pingtian is also a cheerful person, and he directly expresses his thoughts.
Lin Li was about to say something else when suddenly there was an explosion in the distance.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
After the earth-shaking big explosion suddenly appeared in the distance, it quickly spread to all directions. Creatures within several kilometers of the surrounding area could clearly hear this. There were explosions.
“What’s going on?”
Lin Li and Xiao Pingtian's attention was attracted by the sudden explosion in the distance. Soon, they knew why the explosion occurred.
…………
“Kill……!!!”
“Don’t let go of any brain-eating insects in this town!!!”
The cry of killing sounded after the explosion disappeared.
The army that got off the Yunding Flying Boat began to attack this lifeless town, entering the town through the breaches in the wall.
Heavily armed soldiers just entered the town and saw hundreds of brain-eating worms swarming towards them.
The cold-faced soldier was not afraid of the brain-eating insects and pulled the trigger of the crossbow in his hand.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The arrows shot out, instantly forming a large rain of arrows.
"Puff, puff, puff..."
A hundred brain-eating worms were instantly covered by the rain of arrows, and then fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.
"Roar..."
The brain-eating insect whose head was shot by an arrow fell to the ground, its body kept twisting, and a terrible roar came from its mouth.
Due to the destruction of vital parts, the brain-eating worm is forced to leave the host.
Bugs that were all white, only half the thickness of chopsticks, and more than one meter long emerged from the dead residents' noses.
“It’s so disgusting.”
When the cold-faced soldiers saw the brain-eating worm, they immediately felt nauseous, and some began to retching.
"Zi, Zhi, Zhi..."
Brain-eating insects are afraid of the sun and leave the bodies of dead residents. When exposed to the strong sunlight, their bodies begin to smoke.
"Roar..."
The shadow of death shrouded the brain-eating worm, and the cry it made was quite miserable.
Under the watchful eyes of all the soldiers, the brain-eating insect irradiated by the sun turned into a puddle of mud.
"Next, please be careful, don't act alone." The soldier captain reminded his subordinates.
"Yes." The soldiers responded in unison, then divided into small teams and began to search this lifeless town.
"There is another group of brain-eating worms here." A soldier passed by the alley and saw a group of brain-eating worms moving far away, and shouted quickly.
"Tap, step, step..." Rapid footsteps sounded in various places. Within half a minute, a group of brain-eating insects moving in the distance were surrounded by many soldiers.
This kind of ordinary brain-eating worm has almost no room to fight back against fully armed and well-trained soldiers.
So the ending can be imagined. After the bursts of miserable roars, there were many more brain-eating insect corpses on the ground that turned into a puddle of mud.
“This is too easy!”
"That's right! Didn't you say that brain-eating insects are difficult to deal with?"
After killing the brain-eating insects, two recruits felt that this mission was too easy.
On the way to this town to eliminate brain-eating bugs, their boss repeatedly warned them to be careful of brain-eating bugs because they are very scary and difficult to deal with.
But the reality is very different from what the boss said, which makes many recruits think that the boss is exaggerating.
Two figures stood on the rooftop in the distance, taking in a panoramic view of the fighting happening around them.
"Lord Commander, something is wrong!" said the burly man.
"Yes." Liu Yuancheng nodded, and he also noticed something was wrong.
Leading an army to eliminate brain-eating insects is not the first time he has done this.
In the past, it took a lot of effort to eliminate all the brain-eating insects, and the entire process was extremely difficult.
Now that they have invaded the lifeless town, the soldiers kill the brain-eating insects too easily. It can be said that there is no decent resistance. Anyone with experience can detect this anomaly.
"You watch here, I'll go inside and take a look." Liu Yuancheng explained.
"Yes." The burly man clasped his hands in his fists. Next, he will take over Liu Yuancheng's command of the soldiers to fight.
"Bang."
Liu Yuancheng stepped on the ground with both feet, and the tiles under his feet cracked. His body rose from the ground, stopped in mid-air, and then flew towards the depths of the town.
"I wonder if I can break through to the early stage of the third level like the commander in ten years." The burly man looked at Liu Yuancheng who flew away, with envy in his eyes.
"Roar..."
A loud roar appeared in the front left, followed by a burst of arrow-activated sounds.
The burly man quickly looked away at Liu Yuancheng, then jumped up and jumped to the roof of another house. He stayed to direct the battle. He had such an important responsibility and could not tolerate neglect.
…………
"The army outside the town is coming in, let's go!" Lin Li turned his head and looked to his side when he heard the shouts of killing coming from the distance.
Xiao Pingtian nodded, and then he quickly followed Lin Li who left first.
The two people kept jumping on the roof. After a while, they saw that there were no more houses in front of them.
The center of the town is a square with an area of approximately several thousand square meters.
At this time, Lin Li and Xiao Pingtian, standing on the roof, saw many brain-eating insects gathering in the center of the square.
The powerful brain-eating insects they had seen before, emitting second-order psychic energy fluctuations, were now surrounding a huge cocoon.
"There really is an insect king." Xiao Pingtian looked at the huge cocoon in the distance and suddenly lost his concentration, muttering involuntarily to himself.
"Huh?" Lin Li suddenly felt powerful spiritual energy fluctuations behind him. He turned around and took a look, then reached out and patted Xiao Pingtian on the shoulder.
"It's too conspicuous to stay here. Let's go down and find a place to hide."
Xiao Pingtian nodded, and then he followed Lin Li and jumped off the roof and entered a nearby building. house.
All the residents of the town were killed, so no one was seen in the house.
Lin Li came to the window and found that the angle was wrong and there was no way to see the situation in the square in the distance.
“Crack.”
The sound of something breaking was heard. Lin Li heard the sound and went over, and saw Xiao Pingtian chipping away at the wall with a dagger.
"That's a way." When Lin Li saw what Xiao Pingtian was doing, he naturally understood the other party's intention.
When he came to Xiao Pingtian, a hole the size of a fist had been cut in the wall.
Following the example, Xiao Pingtian waved the dagger in his hand and opened another hole of the same size in the wall.
Then, the two people used the holes in the wall to quietly observe the situation in the square in the distance.
"Huh..."
Suddenly a strong wind blew, and the plants around the square shook violently, and the leaves fell. Before they fell to the ground, they were blown up by the gust of wind. , floating irregularly in mid-air.
"The cocoon is broken, and the insect king is about to be born." Xiao Pingtian looked solemnly at the cocoon emitting psychic fluctuations in the square in the distance.
“I wonder what the Insect King looks like.” Lin Li said curiously.
The nervous Xiao Pingtian turned his head and glanced at Lin Li, and said, "You said you were afraid of death, but you are not afraid at all."
Lin Li said with a smile, " The army has already invaded the town. For the Insect King, we are not the ones that can pose a threat to it, so we are relatively safe."
After hearing these words, Xiao Pingtian thought for a moment. , it seemed that this was indeed the case, and then his nervousness was relieved.
"Roar..."
When the brain-eating insects in the square saw their cocoons broken, they immediately let out excited roars, seemingly cheering that their king was about to be born.
A white hand stretched out from the broken cocoon, and more than ten seconds later, another white hand stretched out from the broken cocoon.
The two hands began to use force to completely tear the cocoon apart.
A man with a height of 1.8 meters, fair skin and handsome appearance appeared in the eyes of Lin Li and Xiao Pingtian.
"This is the Insect King?!!!"
"Uh..."
Lin Li turned to look at Xiao Pingtian, "Why does the Insect King look like a human?"
>Xiao Pingtian was silent for a few seconds when he saw this situation, then shook his head.
“This is also the first time I have seen the Insect King. It looks like this, and I don’t know what’s going on.”
"Roar..."
The Insect King was born successfully, and the brain-eating insects in the square cheered.
“Quiet.” The human-looking insect king said, and the brain-eating insects in the square instantly closed their mouths.
"Damn, he can also speak human language." Lin Li had a shocked expression at this moment. This was the first time he had seen such a strange creature.
"No, it found us." Xiao Pingtian saw the human-looking insect king looking towards the room and looking into his eyes. He was so frightened that his face instantly turned pale.
"It discovered us all at once. How did it do that?" Lin Li raised his hand and touched his chin.
"What are you thinking about? Leave quickly." Xiao Pingtian shouted to Lin Li and wanted to drag him away from this dangerous place.
The Insect King exudes second-level peak spiritual energy fluctuations. This is a powerful beast that Xiao Pingtian has never encountered before.
Once the opponent takes action, Xiao Pingtian feels that with the strength of him and Lin Li, there is no way to withstand the opponent's attack.
If you don’t escape now, you won’t have a chance to escape later.
Lin Li raised his hand to block Xiao Pingtian's stretched out hand and said calmly.
"Let's not go out now."
Xiao Pingtian said anxiously, "We have been discovered by the insect king. If we don't leave, it will be too late..."
Lin Li reminded, "Didn't you notice that there is a powerful spiritual energy wave not far from us at the moment?"
Xiao Pingtian was stunned for half a second when he heard this, and then he calmed down a little. I launched a mental perception exploration and found that it was exactly what Lin Li said.
"So strong, this is...the spiritual energy wave at the beginning of the third stage?!!!"
Lin Li smiled, "This strong man should be the leader of the army."
Xiao Ping Tian said in surprise, "It's great. With the Lord Commander taking action, the insect king is dead."
Then, the two people came to the hole in the wall again and walked toward the square in the distance. Overlook.
“I didn’t expect that the Insect King would be born here.” A voice sounded in the air.
Facing a powerful enemy, the insect king in the square retracted his gaze from the house in the distance, raised his head and stared at the strong human standing in the sky, and spoke slowly.
“You guys reacted really fast.”
Liu Yuancheng’s eyes were cold. He looked at the newly born Insect King. Without saying anything, he raised his hand and clenched his fingers into a fist. Punch out of the air.
When the Insect King saw this, a sneer appeared on his face, and he also raised his hand and clenched his fingers into a fist.
“Boom.”
The two sides exchanged bombardments in the air, and the terrifying air waves collided and exploded immediately, affecting the brain-eating insects gathered in the square.
"Roar..."
The brain-eating worms that awakened into alien beasts were not seriously affected, but the ordinary brain-eating worms were in misery, and they were directly shocked and screamed again and again. .
"You don't have to guard me here anymore, go and kill those intruders." The Insect King gave the order.
The brain-eating insects gathered in the square immediately dispersed in all directions, rushing towards the location of the soldiers entering the town.
Liu Yuancheng did not take action to stop the brain-eating insects that were leaving quickly, because his first task now was to get rid of the most difficult insect king.
Pull out the accompanying knife hanging from your waist, mobilize the spiritual energy in your Dantian, and the sharp spiritual weapon sword instantly emits a light golden aura.
The powerful auras exuded by Liu Yuancheng and the Insect King collided with each other. The atmosphere at the scene became extremely solemn, and a battle was about to break out.
