The man who was bitten by the bug before spoke and pressed several times on his body with a strange expression.
Guji~
A disgusting and nauseating sound sounded on his body, and the skin he pressed with his hand quickly collapsed, and a large stream of yellow mucus was squeezed out from the small holes in his body.
"What...what is this!?"
The man's eyes widened, and he felt sick looking at the yellow mucus on his hands.
Han Ming was the closest to this person and quickly took a closer look. At this glance, his whole heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
It’s over!
Han Ming secretly screamed. The yellow mucus was densely packed with countless small white dots.
Insect eggs!??
"ah!!"
Before the man could react from his nausea, he suddenly screamed crazily, and his scream was a bit louder than before.
His body suddenly began to squirm strangely on its own, as if it had its own consciousness. Then, under the helpless gaze of everyone, his whole body suddenly exploded with a pop.
Countless densely packed insects rushed into the sky as his body exploded. There were so many of them that they were like raindrops, falling down from above the crowd.
"Defend! Defend quickly!!"
This time, before Chuck could speak, Han Ming was the first to shout and put two more layers of ice shields on his body.
Everyone else was still in shock and didn't react for a while.
"Damn it!" Chuck roared angrily. Seeing that those little bugs that were covering the sky were about to fall on everyone's heads, he hurriedly waved his hands and summoned a large number of wind elements, which condensed into a hurricane.
The little insect was blown far away in an instant and disappeared without a trace.
"What's going on? Aren't all the bugs on his body forced out of the body? Why do so many come out again!?"
Chuck's first reaction was to ask Han Ming. Han Ming was the person closest to the man and saw details that they had not discovered.
Han Ming's face was ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "It's insect eggs! Those insects laid countless eggs in his body. But the hatching speed of these eggs was really amazing. In such a short time, countless eggs hatched.
It seems that we are in big trouble this time. These bugs stick to the yellow sand and disappear without a trace. It is really difficult to prevent them. If you are not careful, the bugs will get into your body."
After hearing what Han Ming said, everyone fell silent.
At this time, apart from the five masters, there were only Han Ming and the great wood warrior who had previously participated in killing the sawtooth fish monster.
The current situation is not optimistic. These little bugs are hidden deep in the yellow sand under their feet. It is extremely difficult to find traces. And this is a wild desert, with nothing but sand. Doesn't this mean that they can't rest at all along the way?
You must always be on guard against these little bugs.
Han Ming felt extremely heavy. At this time, he would rather face the fourth level monster again than get entangled with these weird insects.
"It seems that in the next period of time, we must maintain a defensive posture at all times. The warriors will release their fighting spirit, and the magicians will set up their own shields."
"How is that possible? Don't say that the mental stress along the way will make you collapse. Even if the spirit can resist it, the body cannot bear the exhaustion."
"Then what do you think we should do?"
…
Everyone was silent. No one had ever encountered this situation before, and no one knew what to do.
Seeing that everyone was running out of ideas, Han Ming lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "I see that it doesn't have to be so troublesome. The man was wearing shoes before, and the insects broke through the shoes and entered the body. But when we stepped on the animal skin,
, those bugs no longer attack him. In my opinion, this bug will definitely not attack inanimate things. The animal skin is originally something from a living beast, and after it is peeled off, the bugs naturally think it is
A kind of dead beast. Since they want to lay eggs and reproduce in people’s bodies, they will naturally not attack dead things.”
Chuck nodded slightly when he heard this and continued following Han Ming's words: "In other words, as long as we wrap our bodies with animal skins, we will not be attacked by those bugs. It seems that those bugs are very intelligent.
Being humble, as long as you think it's not a living creature, you won't attack."
After hearing this, everyone also expressed their agreement.
At this time, it was already bright and the temperature had risen again. Everyone had no intention of resting. They didn't even eat breakfast and hurried on, hoping to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.
As soon as they saw the tragic scene of the previous man's death, everyone felt cold.
In the scorching sun, everyone's body was wrapped in a thick layer of animal skin, which was really not comfortable. Even if there were no more insect attacks, the heat alone was enough to kill someone from dehydration.
Everyone takes out a water bag from time to time and carefully fills a mouthful of boiling water. In this case, the water source is particularly important. The water source that people carry is limited, and every drop of water is reluctant to waste.
The hot water passes through the throat and enters the body, causing the person's body temperature to rise again, giving people the illusion that instead of quenching their thirst, the more they drink, the more they drink.
Han Ming was not afraid of this, he had brought enough water.
Place your palms in front of your forehead to make a shelter and look into the distance.
It is still an endless desert with no end in sight.
Everyone climbed over one sand dune after another, and this place was endless, as if there was no end.
Those bugs didn't appear again, but there was a bigger problem plaguing everyone.
They have been walking in this weird desert for more than ten days. Logically speaking, they can already see the next ring of wild ancient forest. However, what is displayed in everyone's field of vision is still the endless desert. And
More than half of the water sources brought by people have been used up.
People's hearts have begun to become restless.
Under this predicament, there was one person who cast a shadow on everyone's hearts.
"This is……"
The great wood-type warrior was walking when he suddenly felt something foreign under his feet. He bent down and dug out the thing, and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
"Animal skin! It's the animal skin used to kill the man before!"
Han Ming's heart suddenly seemed to be blocked by something, and he was so bitter that he could not speak. After walking for so long, he actually returned to the place where he was attacked by the bugs.
"How is that possible!? We have been heading west. Why are we going back again?"
The earth-type warrior who was following Chuck finally lost his mind and roared at everyone.
"Damn it! I want to go back! I don't want to stay in this damn place anymore."
Chuck said with a smile on his face: "Calm down!"
Zhan Kuang roared at Chuck: "How can you tell me to calm down! We have almost finished drinking the water, but we keep walking in circles. We will die of thirst before the monsters and sand pits appear!"
Snapped!
Chuck slapped the war madman and knocked him to the ground, shaking with anger. He pointed at the war madman and said: "When you came in, you had to have this kind of awareness. Now you want to leave? I don't see who wants to leave.
Let’s go! No one is allowed to leave!” Even Chuck, who had always been calm, lost his mind.
"Then what should we do! Tell me, what should we do? Damn it!" Zhan Kuang continued to roar.
At this time, the other four masters all turned their attention to Han Ming and the great warrior of the wood type.
Hum, have you finally decided on our water bags? Han Ming sneered in his heart.
"Boy, I'm sorry. You have seen the situation in front of me. I think there is no need for me to say more. Please hand over the remaining water."
Chuck took a step towards Han Ming and the great wood warrior, and forced them.
"Oh? Do you want to be tough?" Han Ming raised his eyebrows and sarcastically.
Ao~!
Just as both sides were about to launch a massive attack, a loud roar suddenly came from the horizon.
Several people looked over quickly.
I saw a black thing falling rapidly in the sky not far away. When it fell to the ground, it stirred up yellow sand all over the sky, and actually burrowed directly into the sand and disappeared.
"Everyone, be careful! That thing is coming towards us!"
Han Ming quickly warned.
I saw a bulge appearing in the sand in the distance, and it rushed towards a few people quickly.
"tornado!"
Chuck let out a low roar and flapped his hands in the air for more than ten times. A tornado more than two meters thick suddenly appeared and swept the yellow sand in the sky towards the bulge.
The swirling sand was swept up into the sky, and the thing finally revealed its true colors.
Looking from a distance, it turned out to be a huge bug with a diameter of four to five meters, and the appearance of this bug was exactly what the previous small bugs looked like after being magnified countless times.
However, what makes people despair is that countless roars are heard from the horizon.
When everyone looked up again, there were countless such huge bugs in the sky. They were so densely packed that they covered the sky. One by one, they all fell from the sky into the sand. After advancing for a certain distance in the sand, they jumped out again and started again.
Go under the sand.
"Yeah! It's over!"
At this time, even Han Ming was speechless. How could he resist? There seemed to be thousands of insects. Where did such a large group of ghosts come from?
"Run!"
This was everyone's first reaction.
Resistance? No kidding!
Everyone used their speed to the extreme, and no one cared about the water source at this time. What was more deadly than the water source in front of them were the big bugs.
The group of people leaned together and ran quickly in the other direction.
When Han Ming looked back, he stopped in confusion and said, "Huh? Those bugs didn't come after us. They didn't seem to be aiming at us."
After hearing this, everyone stopped and looked back, right? The insects had already passed the place where they were standing and ran in another direction.
"It seems...something is chasing them?"
Han Ming thought deeply.
Chuck was shocked when he heard this: "What!? Chasing? Isn't something that can scare away such a large group of giant insects even more perverted?"
Han Ming had a bad premonition in his heart. This premonition was very strong and was the worst he had ever felt.
