"Oh, it's so annoying!" Rico reached out and slapped her arm.
Instantly, a large pool of blood spread on her palm.
When Rico opened her palm, a mosquito larger than her palm suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.
"Damn it! Why is this mosquito always staring at me and biting me!" Li Ke looked at the seven or eight red and swollen bumps on her arms, with a look of displeasure on her little face.
Reg is a robot, but his body is covered with a layer of skin, which makes him look somewhat similar to humans.
As for Lin Yi, in the eyes of these abyssal animals, he is simply the biggest boss among big bosses.
Abyssal creatures have their own set of identification methods, the simplest of which is to identify the content of the power of the abyss in the opponent's body.
The more powerful the abyssal creature is, the higher the quantity and quality of the abyssal power it can contain within its body.
Lin Yi walking in the Abyss Abyss was not as relaxed and comfortable as returning to his own back garden, but it was not much different from patrolling his own territory.
So among the three people, mosquitoes couldn't bite two of them, so the mosquitoes had no choice but to bite poor Li Ke.
"As expected of the Abyss Abyss, I didn't expect the gap between the first and second floors to be so big."
Reg said, picking up a caterpillar about the size of his arm from the ground.
In this forest of desire, all the insects and animals are ridiculously big.
No wonder people say that after reaching the second level of the abyss, even the exploration team will become a member of the search and rescue team.
It is really difficult for ordinary people to break through such a terrifying forest if they don't have some strength.
"Li Ke, where is the anthelmintic medicine in your backpack?" Lin Yi reminded him.
"Yeah, I almost forgot about this." After being reminded by Lin Yi, Li Ke remembered that she still had anthelmintics as if she had just woken up from a dream.
There is no way, there is almost no big difference between Rico going down to the cave on weekdays and going down to the cave empty-handed.
She had never used such a precious thing as deworming medicine, which led her to forget that she even had such a treasure.
After Rico lit the repellent mixed with special plants, an extremely unpleasant odor instantly spread around Rico.
The smell was so strong that even Lin Yi and Reg couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses immediately.
"It stinks!" Reg pinched his nose and involuntarily moved farther away from Rico.
This thing is indeed a bit too smelly, so much so that Reg doesn't want to get close to Rico.
"No way, this repellent contains the root system of Rafflesia flower and the shell of the five-layer Casio Seven-tailed Giant Scorpion, the overlord of the abyss, so the smell after burning is so weird. But these two smells are extremely powerful for abyss creatures. threat."
Before Li Ke finished speaking, Lin Yi and Reg noticed a large number of poisonous insects densely appearing on the trees and land beside them.
The ground in front of Lin Yi seemed to be tightly woven with all kinds of colorful but terrifying poisonous insects.
Some of them are squirming and some are crawling, creating a heart-stopping picture.
Colorful spiders are scattered among them, quietly waiting for their next unfortunate prey.
Even more frightening are the longer, brightly colored poisonous insects, which either have sharp mouthparts or have fearsome pincer-like forelimbs, slowly swimming on the ground.
Occasionally, one or two centipedes or scorpions quickly cross this "insect sea", leaving behind a heart-stopping trail.
The air was filled with a smell that was a mixture of dampness, corruption and unknown venom, making people frown.
Rico and Reg also became cautious about breathing, for fear that if they took a big mouthful, they would inhale those terrible poisonous insects.
If a person with poor psychological quality sees this scene, he will definitely suffer from trypophobia.
"We...are there so many poisonous insects near us?" Seeing this shocking scene, Li Ke couldn't help but hide behind Lin Yi, with a look of horror on her face.
Leger on the side did the same thing. Only by Lin Yi's side could the two of them find a sense of security.
Calculated according to their mental age, both of them are almost twelve or thirteen years old. When encountering this situation, they will naturally look for Lin Yi for shelter.
"Do you regret it? If you regret it, you can go up earlier. Otherwise, the load will increase the further you go up, and one day you will not be able to return."
"I don't."
Rico shook her head, she was scared, but if you want her to leave the Abyss Abyss, Rico said it was absolutely impossible.
The three of them were not in a hurry to leave. After all, there were all kinds of poisonous insects in front of them. They were so densely packed that it was impossible for anyone to stay.
After waiting for about three minutes, the number of poisonous insects on the ground finally decreased a lot.
Lin Yi carefully observed the surrounding situation, and after confirming that it was safe, he took Li Ke and Reg and moved forward.
This herbal medicine is really effective. Not to mention insects, the three of them didn't even encounter a few large abyssal creatures along the way. It can only be said that this medicine is indeed worth the price.
"ah!"
Just as the three of them were moving forward, a deep pit suddenly appeared under Rico's feet, and she fell into it instantly.
"Riko!"
After seeing this scene, Reg shot out his arm instantly, and successfully caught Rico at the critical moment when Rico was about to fall to the bottom of the pit.
Rico's body swayed in the air, like a leaf swaying in the strong wind.
With the help of Reg's arm, Rico was finally caught when she was about to fall to the bottom.
At the bottom of the valley, Rico saw three huge black venomous snakes waiting for their prey to take the bait.
Near them are all the skeletons of abyssal creatures, piled up like mountains, exuding the smell of decay and death.
If Reg's reaction was slower, Rico would be one of the skeletons.
After Reg confirmed that Rico was okay, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
When Reg pulled Rico up, Reg could feel that Rico seemed to have vomited something and it was stuck on his arm.
"Oops, the rising load appears."
After Reg felt Rico's condition, he was stunned. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should continue to pull Rico up.
"Don't worry, pull slowly and don't be anxious. Pulling too fast can easily cause the rising load to explode too seriously."
Lin Yi walked up to Reg and patted Reg on the shoulder.
After hearing Lin Yi's voice, Reg's anxious heart finally relaxed.
When Reg pulled Rico out of the pothole, Rico had fallen into a coma.
There was still a trace of blood and vomit at the corner of her mouth, and Reg's robotic arm was also covered in this filth.
Rico's limbs had begun to swell, and the situation was very bad.
Mainly because Rico's current physical fitness is too weak. The weaker the body invaded by the power of the abyss, the more severe the symptoms will be.
Generally speaking, the ascending load on the second floor of the deep boundary will cause symptoms such as severe nausea, headache, and paralysis of the limbs.
But because Rico was too weak, her limbs began to swell.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yi hurriedly stepped forward and untied Li Ke's clothes, and then placed Li Ke's head down so that she could spit out the filth in her mouth.
If Rico was placed flat like this, it would be easy for the filth to block Rico's throat, causing her to suffocate to death.
After Li Ke spit out the filth, Lin Yi rinsed Li Ke's mouth carefully with water.
Lin Yi then applied a purification technique to Li Ke, and then applied a healing technique to Li Ke.
Reg didn't know exactly what Lin Yi had done. He only saw that with the sudden flash of two rays of light, Li Ke's breath suddenly stabilized.
[Successfully cured Rico, the talent "Redeemer's activation" permanently increases health by 30 points, power of the abyss by 14 points, soul strength by 1, current health points are 11592 points, power of the abyss is 10665 points, and soul strength is 61 points. 】
"Rege, Brother Lin." Li Ke called weakly.
"Li Ke! Are you okay?" When Reg saw Li Ke regaining consciousness, he immediately rushed forward and grabbed Li Ke's arm tightly. The scene just now almost scared Reg to death.
"I'm fine, eh? Why do I feel okay now?" Rico stood up from the ground unsteadily.
She was surprised to find that the rising load on the second level of the abyss was not reflected in her body.
"It seems that Brother Lin did something, and the swelling in your arms and calves subsided immediately."
Reg told Li Ke what happened just now, and Li Ke didn't know how Lin Yi did this.
Li Ke knew a lot about relics that could circumvent the abyss force field, but she had never heard of medical relics that could cure the side effects of the abyss force field.
"Okay, next you must be careful where you step. This forest has existed for four thousand years, and special bubbles may have appeared under the ground. Take these two branches with you and explore the path. It will be easier." Lin Yi said as he used a dagger to cut two relatively straight branches and threw them to Li Ke and Reg.
After the two people passed the thrilling scene just now, they obediently took the branches and began to explore the path. Only after confirming that there were no problems ahead did they dare to move forward.
It has to be said that the trees in the Forest of Desire are very strange. The trees here are not like a normal forest. The crown of the trees here is a huge leaf, which looks like a lotus leaf.
Rico took out the map and began to mentally calculate the distance traveled by the three of them, thinking about how far away the surveillance base was.
Just when Rico took out her notebook and checked the location of the two of them against the map, Reg's ears moved as if he heard something.
"There's someone over there asking for help."
Before Lin Yi could say anything, Reg hurriedly ran towards the direction of the cry for help with his backpack on his back.
"This guy is too reckless."
Lin Yi slapped his forehead helplessly and motioned for Li Ke to come over first.
It is difficult to cry out for help after encountering an attack in the abyss. Once in danger, you will often fall into despair in an instant.
Therefore, this cry for help is mostly simulated by abyssal creatures, and its purpose is to attract prey.
For example, the corpse-weeping bird makes a sound very much like a cave digger's cry for help.
This creature is extremely cunning. It uses this sound to lure well-intentioned cave diggers who are eager to save people into approaching, and then takes the opportunity to launch an attack.
There are also tongue lice, this kind of monster is even more terrifying.
It can invade the brain of a corpse, thereby activating part of the brain's function.
Even if the body is dead, the corpse can still make a cry for help in its mouth, making it difficult for people to prevent it.
"Don't worry about it later, just let Reg suffer the loss once and you will know." After hearing Lin Yi's words, Li Ke nodded.
After the last pit incident, Rico has now put away her previous somewhat arrogant attitude.
However, Reg has not changed yet. It is time for Reg to learn some lessons and let him understand that the dangers of the abyss are everywhere and he must not take it lightly.
The two of them followed a narrow path and soon arrived at the edge of the forest.
Going out from here is a vast flat land.
Through the light projected by the abyss force field, Lin Yi noticed a two-meter-tall bird eating a human on the ground.
This human being was wearing a hat so he couldn't see his exact appearance, but judging from the flute around his neck, he was actually a moon flute cave explorer.
It can only be said that anything can happen in the abyss. Although the Moon Flute corresponds to the third and fourth levels of the abyss, this does not mean that the second and first levels of the abyss are not dangerous to these cave diggers.
It can be seen from here that as long as you relax your vigilance even a little bit, even the Yue Flute Cave Explorer may die in the Forest of Desire on the second floor of the abyss.
"Damn, this guy's still alive."
After seeing the two people coming, Reg put his backpack on the spot, then rushed out with his helmet on.
Hearing a strange noise coming from the forest behind him, the corpse-weeping bird stopped eating and slowly turned its head to look at Reg who rushed out of the forest.
Only then did Reg notice that the corpse under the Corpse Weeping Bird was already dead, and all the internal organs of the man had been eaten clean by the Corpse Weeping Bird.
At this time, the corpse-weeping bird still had an intestine in its mouth, and it looked very terrifying and frightening.
As for the cry for help, the corpse-weeping bird swallowed the intestines in its mouth, and while swallowing, it made the sound that Reg just heard.
Only then did Reg realize that he had fallen into a trap.
Lin Yi held Li Ke down and said there was no need to worry. With Reg's ability, these second-floor corpse-weeping birds couldn't trap him.
It just happened to teach Reg a small lesson, so that he wouldn't rush into a group of monsters so recklessly in the future.
After seeing Reg, the corpseweeper suddenly let out a piercing scream.
The next second, a dozen corpse-weeping birds flew down from the air and blocked Legg's retreat.
Seeing this scene, Reg couldn't help but put on a defensive posture.
The corpse-weeping bird is different from normal creatures in that it has two eyes. These two eyes are not distributed on both sides of the head like normal creatures.
There is an eye directly above its forehead, and another eye on the side of its head, which also allows the corpseweeping bird to see part of the scene behind it.
Reg quickly looked around, and after taking a look, he found a stone pillar in the distance.
Reg prepared to go to that place by stretching his arms to escape from the encirclement of the corpse-weeping birds.
But the next second, two corpse-weeping birds directly blocked Reg's arms with their bodies. Reg's arms were blocked and had to be retracted.
These corpse-weeping birds seemed not to feel the threat from Reg, so they gradually approached Reg.
Seeing these man-eating monsters getting closer and closer to him, a voice suddenly appeared in Reg's mind, and that voice told him why these low-level creatures dared to approach him.
The next second, Reg raised his arm and pointed it at the group of corpse-weeping birds in front of him.
Reg's arm is different from a normal mechanical arm. Its structure is very unique. There is a very small hole in the center of the arm. Due to amnesia, Reg himself does not know what the purpose of this hole is.
But now, Reg felt like he understood how to use this thing.
His body recalled the usage of [Cardinal Light].
Immediately, an extremely violent energy fluctuation suddenly began to gather in Legg's palm.
Lin Yi noticed that the energy fluctuations in Leige's palm were so huge that the power of the abyss in the surrounding air was dispersed by the impact of this powerful energy.
It can be said that Reg directly created a small safe area with his own powerful power.
In this safe area, there is no abyss force field at all for a short period of time.
People inside can run and jump as they please without being affected by the rising load at all.
But after this period is over, people must return to their original position.
This is because the burst of rising load is calculated based on the deepest distance each person has reached.
For example, if you were within a range of 1,000 meters, as long as the cumulative ascent exceeds ten meters, the ascent load will explode immediately. This does not mean that you can forcefully avoid the ascent load by stopping and going.
Otherwise, the information on the sixth level of the abyss [the city of no return] has been passed on long ago, how could it still be an unknown area until now.
As the energy gathered, the temperature in the center of Legg's palm soared. At this time, the group of corpse-weeping birds seemed to notice something was wrong, and the prey in front of them suddenly seemed to be very dangerous.
At this time, the Weeping Corpse Birds wanted to run away, but it was too late.
The next second, a huge beam of light penetrated directly through the several corpse-weeping birds in front of Lege. This beam of light did not stop there, but continued to rush forward.
Immediately afterwards, due to the energy dissipation near the light pillar, an extremely high temperature was generated. The high temperature directly burned the nearby corpse-weeping birds into balls of ashes.
In the eyes of Lin Yi and Li Ke, a huge beam of light passed through the layers of clouds and shot straight towards the first layer of the Abyss Abyss.
Li Ke and Lin Yi walked out of the forest and came to the area attacked by Reg [Cardinal Light].
A huge circular hole appeared in front of them, leading all the way to the upper level.
The places that were rubbed by Reg's [Cardinal's Light] all showed a state similar to magma, and fiery red liquid kept dripping slowly from the places where Reg had attacked. When these liquids After falling to the ground, it will make a sizzling sound. (End of chapter)
