I don’t mind raising this big flag.”
"Haha, savior hero? You are quite thick-skinned, can't you be more humble?"
"Humility? God, can you speak from the bottom of your heart? I am really taking a life-and-death risk. Sincerely, I sometimes feel that the reason why heroes and gallantry throughout the ages have performed commendable feats is precisely because of this simple incident."
The two of them were walking and chatting, and before they knew it, they had left the area of ​​the underground ruins and entered the newly discovered upper area.
The cave structure here is very different from the underground ruins area. Whether it is a tunnel or a cave, the inner walls are as pitted and porous as a coral reef, and they are all uniformly dark red.
As we all know, the main component of the skeleton of coral polyps is calcium carbonate, and coral reefs are formed by coral polyps over hundreds of thousands of years. The appearance of such a structure here easily reminds people of some kind of insect with similar characteristics.
Traveling to this area, the number of plant monsters has increased significantly, and every meter the team advances is accompanied by fierce battles.
What Miao Pu has to do is to rationally allocate combat power.
This job was originally not easy, but with the assistance of the weapon spirit, the actual operation is very simple. Issue an order to replace the injured or long-term [Wood Ghost] or Thorny Ball Monster, and then heal or help it recover.
, that's it. As for monitoring the battle situation, analyzing the enemy and ourselves, when to replace which monster, where to cure, or what proportion of recovery energy to use, etc., all are completed by the weapon spirit. In other words, the weapon spirit has a deep mind to guard the brain.
It's not called this name for nothing.
During this process, Miao Pu did not forget to be careful and learn. Not to mention that he had always been wary of the weapon spirit. Even if he had not, he would not rely too much on the weapon spirit. Relying on foreign objects was not the right path after all.
They advanced in a fight like a boat against the current. After arriving at a cave of several hundred square meters, their progress was blocked. A large number of powerful monsters appeared, resisting the attack of [Wooden Ghost], and the fight was inextricable.
When Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing saw this, they took action one after another to join the battle.
Miao Pu used bows and arrows for long-range support. Although Luo Zhiqing did not have long-range attack methods, her space movement skills combined with sharp swordsmanship posed no less threat to monsters than Miao Pu. She saw the opportunity correctly and killed one life with one sword.
Missed.
The battle lasted for more than half an hour, until the corpses of powerful monsters piled up into a hill in the cave, and the intensity of the battle gradually decreased. It was not that the monsters did not want to fight, but that the powerful monsters were basically slaughtered.
Miao Pu also suffered losses. Now there are only 2 [Wood Ghosts] left, and almost half of them have injuries on their bodies. Even more thorn ball monsters have died, with only a dozen or so left.
"Keep going and let's try not to give each other a chance to breathe."
On the road ahead, there are still many ordinary monsters. Looking around, the fire-like eyes are like the stars in the sky, which are countless. However, no matter how numerous they are, they can't stop Miao Pu and his party.
As he went deeper, the true appearance of the upper area gradually appeared before Miao Pu's eyes.
Different from the plant monster lairs in the outer ring of the ruins, here, there are no creatures that function like mother trees, but only strange plants that resemble egg-laying organs. These are obviously hatcheries with distinct levels based on the terrain. Then
The situation is like terraced fields with clear ridges and ridges, and there are special monsters responsible for carrying and caring for these eggs.
This type of working monster is a mixture of flesh and blood and plants. Miao Pu calls it a worker ant monster. The worker ant monsters do not participate in the battle at all. Even if the eggs in the hatchery are destroyed, they will only come forward to clean them up instead of destroying them.
Miao Pu even forced them into a blind corner, but these guys just wandered around and didn't know how to attack.
In the entire upper area, the most magical and research-worthy thing is this kind of worker ant monster. They are breeders, they are architects, and in terms of their skills and wisdom alone, they are definitely the best among all monsters.
In addition, there is another creature that attracted Miao Pu's attention. They are not plant monsters, but a kind of insect.
This kind of fat insect, which is about the size of two adult fingers, constantly swallows soil and energy, and constantly excretes a certain substance, and this substance is the material for building the nest, and then the worker ant monster uses it as material, in the huge dome
Build a new platform and hatchery. The process is like the growth of a plant. First, build the main body, then the branches, and then a leaf-like platform with the branches as the central axis. The platform will be the future hatchery.
With the help of Qi Ling, Miao Pu quickly completed the identification of the eggs in each hatchery, or more precisely, the wooden cocoons, and then launched an egg extermination operation.
This was a hard battle, because the attacks of monsters never stopped. Although they could not prevent Miao Pu from achieving his goal, they also had the effect of being killed by too many ants. They were constantly worn down and consumed. First, all the thorn ball monsters were wiped out.
, and then [Wooden Ghost] also began to reduce its staff due to constant consumption... In general, once the number of teams is reduced to a certain level, there will be no convenience of rest and recovery, a vicious cycle, and a huge price will naturally be paid, and this is
An accelerated process.
This kind of sacrifice is necessary. In fact, the two of them are more grateful now. Fortunately, they discovered the upper area in time, and immediately organized the combat force to kill here. Fortunately, they did not give up halfway, otherwise there is no need for more, there will be another 2 hours
, several batches of powerful monsters will be successfully hatched. At that time, even if they are willing to pay ten times or even a hundred times the current price, they may not be able to achieve their wishes. The monsters will enter a virtuous cycle, killing those in front and hatching behind, and they will not be able to afford it by then.
It was Miao Pu and the others.
Chapter completed!
