Chapter 41: Glowing Corpse Crystal Path
Malacca is known as a godly shooter in the army, he can hit the target with his eyes closed after taking a glance at its direction, has reached the level of having a gun in his heart, just like football players shooting goals based on feeling, excluding national football.
One shot and it will naturally hit its mark.
Bullets whizzed through the fluorescent strange corpse, roaring and falling somewhere unknown.
Malacca would have been stronger if he hadn't fired his gun, and when the giant white beetles fell asleep, he could have sneaked past them. But this shot not only killed a giant white beetle but also enraged them. The glowing corpse was seen to be under the control of the insects, slowly turning around and taking a step forward.
"My god, what's going on!" Liu Yi exclaimed, holding the "Qu Chu Cao Bian" in his hand, being extremely cautious!
Lu Zonghan said on the side: "I'm afraid these insects are not afraid of this!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the glowing corpse began to slowly walk towards them
。
"Damn it, it's evolved!" Ma Liu Jia shouted as he fired all the bullets in his rifle, but that fluorescent zombie didn't even pause, slowly walking down the corridor with a flashing glow. The distance of over 100 meters was also a challenge for this fluorescent zombie, and strangely, Ma Liu Jia's gunfire did not scare away the mutated sacred beetles on its body.
Everyone looked at each other, and the idea of escaping arose in their hearts. At this time, Lu Zonghan suddenly took out a dark red bullet the size of a goose egg from his pocket, without saying a word, and threw it directly at the fluorescent strange corpse sixty meters away from them.
"Run!" Lu Zonghan shouted loudly and turned around to run first.
Everyone who heard this turned around quickly, and with a loud bang, the fluorescent strange corpse behind them seemed to burst open.
"What is that thing!" Liu Yi asked.
Lu Zonghan panted: "It should be the ancient 'hand grenade'. When it hits an obstacle with a certain amount of force, it will explode. We found a bunch in that cave when we entered the sacrificial site. Now we're almost out of them. Luckily we had them, or who knows if we could have even made it into the sacrificial site alive?"
The crowd turned another corner and hid behind the stone wall, peeking out to observe the situation in the tunnel. They saw that those fist-sized white sacred beetles had been ignited by the explosion, with the majority of them burning like flames, making strange "hissing" sounds as they flew around in mid-air, creating an eerie atmosphere.
The scarab beetles scattered and opened, the corpse was also blown to pieces, bone fragments splashed everywhere on the wall of the cave, a skull bounced back and forth on the stone wall, and actually rolled in front of Liu Yi and others.
Liu Yi guessed: "It should be the remains of poachers who died here before us, and that sacred beetle took it as a place to rest!"
He guessed it right, and that's exactly what happened.
These fist-sized sacred beetles are mutants, they like to eat human flesh, and not only that, but also swallow people without spitting out bones. Previously, a group of poachers led by foreign witches encountered the sacred beetles here and had a battle, many members of the poaching team died, but they also killed most of the mutant sacred beetles. Now what Liu Yi and others see are the remaining ones after the war, thanks to the poachers who opened the way in front, otherwise, relying on Liu Yi and a few people alone, it's estimated that passing through this passage guarded by the mutated white sacred beetles is a bit suspenseful.
"Gurgle... gong, pitter-patter..."
Liu Yi kicked the skull of the dead man in front of him flying with one foot and walked out holding a black obsidian sword.
The tunnel where these sacred beetles are is the only way forward. At such a moment, someone must stand up.
Liu Yi was still confident about dealing with the remaining ten or eight mutated sacred beetles. Those mutated sacred beetles were frantically searching for a target in the tunnel, and when they saw Liu Yi coming out, they thought they had found an outlet for their frustration. Suddenly, they flew towards Liu Yi, chirping "zhi, zhi".
Their antennae waved wildly in the air, their two front paws were shaped like "teeth", very frightening, especially the two small pincers composed of "saw teeth" on top, looked just like crab claws, and they danced and chattered towards Liu Yi's face.
Bang, bang, bang......
Liu Yi's bodyguard, Malacca, fired first and several sacred beetles were hit by bullets...
Rifle bullets hit them in the head, sending them flying backward, followed by a "thud" sound, presumably pinned to the stone wall at the end of the corridor.
。
The already scarce sacred beetles were killed by a burst of gunfire from Malacca, leaving only a few.
The remaining few sacred beetles had already flown in front of Liu Yi, but seeing that he didn't dodge or evade, he wielded the black obsidian sword in his hand and made a series of slashing and chopping motions. In an instant, two sacred beetles were torn open in mid-air, their white bodies bursting with deep purple blood that splattered onto the wall and floor, taking on a dark reddish hue as it dripped down the walls, emitting a foul stench akin to that of rotting insects, truly unbearable!
"Grandma's, it won't kill you from eating, but it'll make you sick to death!" Ma Liujiu shouted, waving his right hand in front of his nose.
In the midst of his complaints, the crowd walked forward in silence, knowing that this so-called Five Elements Training Ground was even more dangerous than the underground dark river and Death Valley of Coco Village.
Liu Yi carefully walked in front with a knife, while Lu Zonghan closely followed behind him, and Ma Liya trailed at the very back.
After walking for a few steps, Liu Yi suddenly found that at the end of the corridor, there was a faint light flickering and flashing, and he immediately stopped in his tracks, whispering: "Do you think this faint light is emitted by that strange insect?"
Professor Zhou Tao looked at the flickering light and felt that it was probably the moonlight refracted through the flowing river, saying: "It's definitely not!"
"What could it be?" Liu Yi muttered to himself, his curiosity piqued, and he quickened his pace, walking two more steps before turning right at the end of the corridor. After making a sharp turn to the right, the source of the faint light revealed its mysterious veil.
Right in front of them, about a hundred meters away, a glowing pipeline like a circular water pipe was flashing with seven-colored light. The light had been refracted and extended to their vicinity, but it was getting weaker and weaker, so they only saw a faint light.
Professor Zhou Tao looked at the passageway on both sides, under the moonlight, as if the lake water was trembling up and down, and exclaimed: "We've entered the bottom of the lake to reach Lake Heart Island!"
Malacca exclaimed: "This light is too similar to the color emitted by the crystal sheep's head, could it be made of pure crystal?"
He shouted this time, and everyone was shocked, walking quickly forward, until they reached the edge of the passageway, where they stopped in their tracks.
Liu Yi looked down and saw that the glowing passageway merged with the lake water as one, if not for the reflection of the moonlight, which allowed everyone to distinguish it as a road, they would have thought they had seen another "water surrounds the path but does not enter" scenic wonder.
They could see clearly that there were fish swimming around, which was not a big deal, but those fish were actually the old fish they had seen in the underground dark river of Kekou Village.
Malacca pointed at the old fish and said, "Wow, those fish from the underground dark river, aren't they the ancient villagers of Koko Village who were brought here to be raised in the underground dark river?"
Kerouac stood by silently, lost in thought.
Liu Yi led the way, walking into the glowing passageway. His eyes sparkled with excitement as he reached out to touch the passageway, feeling an icy coolness that was reminiscent of touching a crystal orb. Perhaps, this passageway was naturally formed from crystal.
。
As soon as they entered the crystal channel, they surprisingly couldn't feel the existence of light, it was like being in a mountain and not knowing the mountain.
The underwater creatures were instantly attracted to them, and an old fish curiously swam over, separated by the crystal channel, opening its big mouth to bite Liu Yi's palm, but after biting a few times and drinking a few mouthfuls of water, it found that it was making useless efforts, and then bared its teeth at Liu Yi and sulkily swam away.
They seem to be walking on water as if they had cast a spell of avoidance.
Suddenly they found that on the crystal channel wall, countless white sacred beetles the size of fists appeared.
Lu Zonghan let out a cry of surprise, pulled out the "old hand grenade" he had used before, and was about to throw it when Liu Yi, with sharp eyes, snatched it away, saying: "It's fake, an illusion, just a shadow!"
Everyone looked carefully, but saw that the white mutant sacred beetle, although numerous, was flying in the air with its teeth and claws, but there was no such "hiss" sound as before, just like the feeling of appearing on a silent movie screen.
"Look, it's those poachers!" Malacca shouted, pointing at the crystal passageway wall.
The members of the poaching team looked at each other in shock and horror...
As they appeared, Liu Yi and his little friends were stunned on the spot.
They stood in the corridor with their mouths agape, watching the scene of poachers and sacred beetles fighting as if it were a silent movie, all of them shocked.
Countless scarab beetles covered the ground, attacking the poaching team.
Only the black-robed sorceress was seen, holding a half-moon black knife and reciting incantations to cast an unnamed spell. Afterwards, a cloud of black fog rose around her, while those poachers fled towards the end of the crystal passage.
Those variant sacred beetles, once they flew into the dark fog, first stopped glowing on their bodies, then turned from white to black, and finally transformed into a puddle of black water that fell down. Due to the large number of sacred beetles, although the wizard was able to block most of them, there were still a few that passed through the dark fog and chased after the poachers. The black-robed wizard picked up the variant sacred beetles around him, his eyes emitting a cold glow, and pulled out a person hiding in the darkness - it was Kork Wood, who had been brutally battered and covered in bloodstains. He then turned and walked towards the end of the crystal passageway...
Then the entire image disappeared...
"Ah, Dad!" Korksi saw this and rushed forward, but ended up empty-handed. He tripped and fell to the ground, hitting his head on the crystal wall and getting a big bump. Unbeknownst to him whether it was due to pain or thinking of his father, he actually shed tears.
Liu Yi helped him up and silently patted his shoulder.
Sometimes silence is more powerful than sound.
After watching the silent film, everyone was puzzled as to why such a scene appeared, and they turned to ask Professor Zhou Tao: "Why did this strange phenomenon appear?"
