Chapter 31 Earthworm's Talent (1)
"Hefeng...forest?"
“Where is this place?”
Wang Xiaoyu stared at the human words on the map and shook his head and said, "There are too many places in "The Realm of Heaven", and he just didn't know this place."
"Human text, isn't this an elf forest? But there are obviously flower fairies and elf wizards here. Could it be that this map was lost after humans brought it to the elf forest?" Wang Xiaoyu thought while watching the map.
The location and information on the map are very detailed, the gathering place of the goblins, the location of the aromatherapy trees... are full of thorns marked out of untravelable locations, a winding stream, and a lake.
Then Wang Xiaoyu saw a noticeable red mark on the map - the blue-eyed butterfly.
"Is it a map lost by the person who wants to collect the wings of the blue-eyed butterfly..." Wang Xiaoyu said softly again, his insect body trembled slightly, but he calmed down immediately.
From the existence of the goblins and the blue-eyed butterfly marked on the map, Wang Xiaoyu has been able to basically determine that the location depicted by this map is the jungle where he is currently in.
It's just like a frog watching the sky in a well. Wang Xiaoyu's slow speed made him not climb much these days. In addition, his poor vision, so even with this map, Wang Xiaoyu doesn't know where he is now.
He only knew that besides unknown trees, unknown grass, or piles of fallen leaves around him...
...
"Hungry, hungry..."
While Wang Xiaoyu was thinking, the red-headed cricket beside him kept biting the map. I don’t know if it was because of the anger that was just stuck in his head or because it was really hungry. In short, the red-headed cricket kept biting the edge of the map and biting it.
"Don't make trouble!"
Wang Xiaoyu twisted the insect body and pushed it straight away, knocking away the cheerful red-headed cricket. The text blocked on the nearby map also appeared in Wang Xiaoyu's sight, but because the position of the text is on the outermost layer of the rolled-up map, it is already rotten and blurred.
"The Wizard's Country..." Wang Xiaoyu said in contemplation.
Only the first few words can be seen clearly. As for the specific place names behind, there is no trace of decay. Wang Xiaoyu only knows that the east side of this forest should be the Wizards Country in "The World of Heaven".
With these, Wang Xiaoyu can determine that the location where he is located is the location where the Wizard Kingdom and the Elf Forest is handed over. However, there are too many locations where the Wizard Kingdom and the Elf Forest are handed over. It is still impossible to confirm where he is on the edge of the Elf Forest.
After thinking for a while, Wang Xiaoyu continued to flip the pile of dead leaves, because it is very likely that there are other things in this pile of dead leaves, which can bring more clues to Wang Xiaoyu.
Unfortunately, Wang Xiaoyu turned around for nearly two hours and found nothing. Instead, the red-headed cricket who was imitating Wang Xiaoyu to flip the leaves and dig down a few meters away to dig out a piece of ceramic fragment.
"Is it still the elf wizard who drives the goblin?" This ceramic fragment still has magic patterns with elf text on it. It looks like a rotten map.
...
Shaking the insect head, Wang Xiaoyu no longer looked for other things that might be buried underground. Wang Xiaoyu memorized the information on the map again, then rolled up the map and buried it in the dead leaves again. Although this map was made of aquatic animal skins and was very edible to him, Wang Xiaoyu was not a genius who could never forget it, so he decided to keep this map with important content written on it.
"Let's go, the red-headed cricket." Wang Xiaoyu greeted the red-headed cricket and decided to continue hunting.
Wang Xiaoyu decided to practice silk thread for two more days, and wait for the slime to be born again, and then wait for his silk thread to move more skillfully, and he will travel eastward.
Since he already has a map, Wang Xiaoyu decided to confirm his position in the map. As long as he walks eastward, he will definitely encounter a stream or lake on the edge of Hefeng Forest. Then he can find the entrance of the stream to enter the lake along the direction of the water flow.
Not far west of the lake entrance is the place marked as the Wind Tree on the map.
Wang Xiaoyu had never heard of the name of a tree like the Wind Tree during his lifetime, but since this forest can be named after the Wind Tree, the Wind Tree must have its own uniqueness.
For Wang Xiaoyu, eating the leaves of the Wind Tree should be a good choice.
...
...
Although he is not skilled in using silk threads, Wang Xiaoyu also got rid of his slow movement at this time, so an insect that Wang Xiaoyu has always avoided and appears very frequently was included in Wang Xiaoyu's recipe. This insect is an ant army that is good at team combat.
Now that he has developed the way of moving silk threads, it is no longer possible for an ants to surround him and force him to a dead end. The threat to him has changed from extremely large to minimal. After all, ants generally cannot fly.
Again, along the memory location, Wang Xiaoyu walked towards the location where he first hunted the dead leaf mantis and the jungle scorpion. It should be not far from here. Wang Xiaoyu knew that there should be a big black ant hole nearby.

As he continued to move forward, Wang Xiaoyu gradually encountered sporadic large black ants. The upgraded [Sharp Claws] exerted its power. Wang Xiaoyu didn't even have to bite the weak parts of the ant joints specifically. The armor on the ants would be easily bitten by him and then eaten directly by him.
Wang Xiaoyu's follower, Red-Headed Cricket, also followed suit, jumping and fighting with the big black ants. However, after a single fight against three big black ants, two of them bit their thighs and almost became disabled, the Red-Headed Cricket's arrogant arrogance was extinguished, and he followed Wang Xiaoyu and became honest.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The noisy battle sound from the big black ants came from a distance. There should be more than a dozen big black ants fighting something. Wang Xiaoyu also changed the direction of his movement and decided to go to the battle position to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Soon, more than a dozen ants bit a red snake bug tightly and entered Wang Xiaoyu's field of vision. [Exploration Technique] was activated, and the information of the red bug also appeared in front of Wang Xiaoyu.

Wang Xiaoyu spit out the silk thread directly because both the big black ant and the earthworm were used as his food. More than a dozen big black ants struggling in the silk thread were quickly bitten by Wang Xiaoyu's claws. However, when Wang Xiaoyu used his claws to bite the earthworm off, something strange happened.
