However, perhaps because they had experienced the previous poisonous snake disaster together, this time the two parties did not choose to take action at the first opportunity.
"Yuan Qinghua, you can't defeat your elder brother." Yuan Jie took the lead and shouted loudly: "We are just the first team sent by the young master. There are more people outside waiting for you after you come out of the poisonous swamp.
Just give up and surrender to yourself."
The confident smile on Yuan Qinghua's face did not diminish. He took the golden branches and leaves in his hands and said with a smile: "The thing is in my hand, and I can only open the secret in the end. You want to snatch it from me? You don't have the ability yet.
.”
The two sides fell into silence again, because as soon as they finished speaking, the obsidian swarm over there began to commotion. More and more obsidian insects crawled out from the center of the rotten tree trunk, and the dense insect bodies covered the original overgrown tree.
The green moss tree trunks are directly dyed into a pitch black ink color.
Buzz——
It seemed that the voices from both sides had alarmed the obsidian insects. An unknown number of obsidian swarms rose into the sky and soon connected into a patch in the sky. The dense insect bodies formed a dark cloud in front of them. Looking at it, they might spread out.
Several kilometers.
It is simply impossible to get around it!
At the moment when the obsidian miasma formed, everyone was filled with souls, and even breathing slowed down involuntarily.
Yuan Hecheng boldly continued to approach Yuan Jie. Under the pressure of the obsidian miasma, firing a gun was seeking death. However, Yuan Jie immediately pointed the muzzle of his rifle at Yuan Hecheng and signaled him not to move. The heavy warning in his eyes was filled with the hope of death.
smell.
Yuan Qinghua patted Yuan Hecheng on the shoulder and told him not to push too hard.
The two sides fell into a strange silence.
The obsidian miasma flew around for a while after it was formed. It seemed that no other abnormalities were found, so they dispersed and returned to their nests, leaving only a few sentinel obsidian bugs to continue patrolling the surroundings.
Yuan Qinghua raised the walkie-talkie in his hand, and when Yuan Jie's face was tuned to a public channel, Yuan Jie also tuned his own walkie-talkie to the same channel, and was the first to ask: "Do you have to go through this deadwood forest to get the secret?"
"What do you say, or I will come over?" Yuan Qinghua held up the golden branches and leaves in his hand: "You have also seen it. If you want to get the secret, you have to get through this difficulty first. I have golden branches and leaves in my hands. I read it right.
If so, the two men under your command should be equipped with flamethrowers, so both parties can cooperate completely."
"You want us to help you clear the way? Hey, why are you thinking so beautifully?"
"If it weren't for my people having problems in the poisonous miasma, I wouldn't have to cooperate with you at all. Just one sentence, do it or not?!"
Yuan Jie's eyes flickered, and he was obviously a little moved. He must pass through this dead wood forest at some time, but the mark is also in Yuan Qinghua's hand. Unless he can snatch it away, there are two masters, Qin Yu and Yuan Hecheng, who are here.
There's no way to shoot near the Obsidian, so it's very detrimental to one's own side.
It's better to go there first and try other things later. Yuan Qinghua probably wouldn't dare to do anything wrong anyway, otherwise everyone would die here if one person shoots.
After thinking again and again, Yuan Jie replied: "I agree to form an alliance, but if I find out that you, Yuan Qinghua, are up to something, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Don't worry, I won't make fun of my own life."
The two sides reached an agreement. Yuan Qinghua and his men slowly walked to Yuan Jie's team. Both sides glared angrily and said nothing. Qin Yu and Yuan Hecheng separated Yuan Qinghua and Yuan Jie, but they had no intention of taking advantage of the situation.
"Let's go, use the flamethrower to clear the way."
"You don't need to say it." The two teams merged and walked forward slowly. The fact that obsidian insects can build a nest here means that there is basically solid soil below, so both sides don't have to worry about their feet.
The team's approach made the obsidian swarm immediately smell the fresh delicacy. This time, countless obsidians flew out from the tree trunks like a blowout, and soon gathered into a dense dark cloud in the sky.
"Number 13, Number 29!"
"clear!"
No. 13 and No. 29 were ready. While the miasma was rushing towards them, they had already pulled the trigger of the flamethrower. The blazing fire and high-pressure hot oil instantly turned the surrounding area into a turbulent sea.
Sea of ​​fire.
Several nearby tree trunks were instantly ignited into torches, and countless obsidian insects that were climbing outwards were immediately burned and exploded. There were creaking and cracking sounds everywhere, and the obsidian insects were burned by the flames.
The insects ignited into pieces, getting out of hand.
The team advanced slowly. No. 13 and No. 19 missed any tree trunks that had been hollowed out by insects, and set them all on fire. At the same time, Yuan Qinghua asked his shadow guards to pour an extremely flammable fuel on every tree.
He lowered it and ignited it, which was obviously something he had prepared before.
Although the obsidian miasma is fierce, the obsidian itself is extremely flammable, so it is extremely afraid of fire. It allows the team to move forward without any danger, and occasionally some fish that slip through the net will be quickly killed.
…………
With the Qingling Pill, traveling has become much easier than before. Su Fei and the three of them can almost walk on flat ground. Unless they encounter a pool of unknown depth, they can jump over it by just using Qinggong.
"Brother Su Fei, we are so fast now!" Hu Mang spread his legs and ran wildly on the ground. His huge tiger claws no longer had to worry about being stuck in the mud and unable to be pulled out. Although his body was still dirty with mud and water,
But Hu Mang didn't care after transforming into tiger form.
After swallowing the Light Spirit Pill, Xie Yufei's weight dropped sharply from her early 100s to less than 50 kilograms. After Hu Mang invited her, she sat directly on Hu Mang's back. Xie Yufei raised her right hand above her eyebrows and raised her eyes: "Husband, we are
We should soon catch up with the two groups in front of us now."
"Well, it's almost time."
Following the instructions of the compass, Su Fei headed north. On the way, he also began to encounter scattered corpses and equipment scattered in the muddy water. Each corpse was eaten until only a skeleton was left. Not only the shadow guards, but also those belonging to Yuan Jie
The bodies of his men.
Judging from the scratches left on the body armor and bulletproof helmet, Su Fei guessed that they had encountered a black-spotted water snake.
"Be careful around you, those black-spotted water snakes may not have gone far yet."
"Hey, my husband taught me how to keep an eye on the changes around me."
Along the way, the three of them did not encounter any danger. However, when passing through a quagmire, a swamp anaconda suddenly jumped out of it, which shocked Hu Mang, but was easily eliminated by the three of them.
The fog in front gradually dissipated. Xie Yufei's eyes moved slightly and she raised her hand to point forward: "Husband, look, is there a fire ahead?"
Su Fei and Hu Mang both raised their heads and looked forward, and sure enough they saw yellow fire faintly emerging from behind the fog not far ahead, and as the breeze blew from the front, it also brought waves of heat.
However, when the three of them saw the scorched forest of rotten trees in front of them, a chill ran down their spines.
It's like the obsidian nest I saw before, but there is a whole large area here. There is a charred passage in the middle of the woods. All the insect nests along the way were set alight, and the tree is still burning.
This road was densely covered with a thick layer of obsidian carcasses. They were all burned to death by the high temperature of the flames. The bodies of the insects were rolled into a ball and only a black ball remained.
Yuan Qinghua and the others passed by, but they burned the obsidian nest but did not completely kill the obsidian insects. The obsidian swarm that had lost its nest was hovering above the remains of its own nest, while the well-preserved insects around it
Swarms of obsidian worms also flew out of the nest, forming a large miasma of obsidian worms in the sky of this rotten forest.
This is equivalent to poking a hornet's nest but not cleaning out the wasps, causing the road to be completely blocked.
Xie Yufei tugged on Su Fei's clothes: "Honey, can we... still go there..."
"It's difficult..." Su Fei smiled bitterly. He opened his clairvoyant eyes and looked around, but all he could see was a forest of dead wood. There was no other way to go. I'm afraid he had to force his way into the core.
.
But according to what the jade slip says, it is basically impossible. Unless you reach the Kaiyuan realm, it is impossible to resist the attack of the obsidian miasma with the body-protecting energy alone. Even Su Fei does not dare to go up and try, because once these obsidian insects are alerted,
It's very possible that he will never come out again.
"What should I do..." Hu Mang had no choice. She scratched the ground with her forefoot, obviously impatient.
Ding--
A crisp sound of glass passed by the ears of the three of them. Before Hu Mang could react, he heard Xie Yufei suddenly shout: "Ah! It ran out!"
Su Fei realized something instantly and immediately reached for his waist, only to find a broken glass bottle.
The Obsidian Insect King in the glass bottle unexpectedly recovered its strength at some point, smashed the sealed glass bottle and rushed out. The three of them saw a black light flashing in front of their eyes, and the Obsidian Insect King flapped its wings.
He flew towards the obsidian forest over there without any hesitation.
"Isn't it trying to call its own kind over?" Hu Mang was so frightened that he stepped back on both sides. Hu Mang whipped Su Fei's leg with his tail and said hurriedly: "Brother Su Fei, let's run away! The bugs are coming.
!”
Xie Yufei also pulled Su Fei up by herself, but Su Fei stood still and didn't move. He just said lightly: "I don't think it is calling for its companions. Take a closer look."
This obsidian king was obviously very purposeful, flying straight into the corpses of the burned obsidians, and its two front claws spread the thick obsidian corpses to both sides like digging a tunnel.
He quickly got into the obsidian corpse mountain, grabbed something with the big jaws of his mouth, and dragged that thing outside with all his strength.
This is the body of a burned-to-death Obsidian King.
After the body was dragged out, the Obsidian King immediately pounced on it and began to feast on it, humming and munching with great joy.
"It turns out that he went back to look for the corpse of the Insect King to eat. This little guy can't tell but he's actually quite smart." Su Fei chuckled.
To be continued...
