Chapter 31 The Swarm

"In the name of the Lord." The screaming sound was not far away. Xiuer saw nothing, and the healing magic was released directly on himself.

This is the safest choice. When the situation is unknown, the healer must first ensure his safety. Even if the injury is injured, he can be cured in time. Then he will consider helping his teammates. In order to treat his teammates, it is the most unwise choice, and it will only put the entire team in a desperate situation.

It was not until the magic technique took effect that Shuer could see the scene clearly, but he felt that he might as well not see clearly. Seeing these in front of him, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

There is also a blue sky above the head and a deep purple earth under the feet. However, if you look closely at the ground, you will find that the earth itself is not purple, but large areas of bacteria are densely grown on the ground, covering the ground completely, making the earth look purple.

Looking around, the place is an open plain. The plain is endless, with no trees around it, and there is no shelter. Only a few hundred meters behind me, there is a vague shadow that looks like an artificial building complex.

Looking around you, thankfully, there is more than Dak around you, and those who have disappeared before are also around you. Obviously, since they were brought closer to the projection of another world, they have never moved, and finally waited for the arrival of rescue. However, counting carefully, there are still about ten people, and these ten people are probably in danger.

Because the mutant spider mother is also there, the spider mother, who lacks two legs, is more than 30 meters away from the crowd, and more than 60 surviving spiders gather around it. With the size of the spider mother, she can touch the crowd with a little movement. It is easier to drag these ten people away.

However, the Spider Mother did not attack the crowd and could not find time to attack. It still had more important problems to deal with.

"God, what are these?" Saf's suppressed exclamation came from behind Shuer. Even though he saw tens of thousands of spiders gathered in the magic pool, the female swordsman was not as surprised as he is now. "Is this... the protozoa of another world?"

What scared Saff and Shure was indeed the protozoa of this world.

A group of dark brown creatures that are slightly larger than domestic dogs, walk and jump extremely nimble, and attack extremely agile.

Coincidentally, similar to mutant spider mothers, these are also arthropods.

They have a hard-looking exoskeleton, with a long spur extending from their heads, with sharp tops and sharp bottom edges, like spears and cutters. Their mouths are not like the mouthpieces of an arthropod at all, but protruding forward like a crocodile. There are a row of sharp teeth in the open mouths, and some of them are still stained with blood, red, green, and purple.

These arthropods, which can be seen from the appearance, have three pairs of scorpion-like stomach feet under their bodies. The stomach feet are like bone spurs on the head, and they are both sharp at the end and sharp inward edges. It is more of a terrible weapon than a leg. If you are not prepared, you will be pierced without preparation, even if you are a Pavatiga person's physical fitness, it may be very uncomfortable.

If you look at these bugs carefully, it seems like they were born for fighting. Every part of the appearance exists for killing. It is probably not an exaggeration to say that they are combat machines.

More importantly, the insects are not one, or even a group, but are all over the mountains and fields, like a tide. Only a layer of brown carpet can be seen on the purple ground. As for the number, even the idea of ​​estimation cannot appear...

When Shuer and the others entered, the bugs were attacking indiscriminately, whether it was a cave spider with similar species to their species or a human with completely different appearances, they were all covered in their killing range.

The little spiders not far away surrounded the spider mother in the middle and used their hard shells to resist the fierce attack of the insect swarm. On the side of the smart creatures, sixteen mercenaries formed a circle to protect ordinary craftsmen and scholars. Although they did not have shells to protect themselves, their energy-enhanced physiques were not easily broken through by insects in the local world. If they were bitten or stabbed, they would at most suffer a little bit of injuries, leaving a shallow wound.

However, although the injuries are shallow, if the number of insects is large, minor injuries will inevitably turn into serious injuries. In ten minutes, three mercenaries were screaming and dragged into the swarm of insects, turning into fragments in the sea of ​​insects. In addition, there are few people defending and many people needing protection, so it is difficult to be foolproof. As insects continue to rush in through the gap, the protected ordinary people are constantly reducing their staff.

Fortunately, the insects rushed over from the other side. They passed by the mutant spider mother first to reach the smart creatures. Most of the insects were restrained by the mutant spider mother. Only a very small part was surrounded by the crowd. Well, very few, only tens of thousands.

The number has long exceeded the scope that mercenaries can deal with, including internal scholars. Everyone has fallen into despair. Many people have given up their desire to survive. Seeing that the defense line may collapse at any time, reinforcements have arrived.

Dake appeared first. After a sudden appearance and almost killed a few similar people who were surrounded by ecstasy in ecstasy, he finally recovered from the trance of crossing the world barrier. However, after seeing the surrounding situation clearly, he did not rush up to join the battle, but guarded the passage tightly, and even his own people were not allowed to approach. Even if another bug rushed in and cut the belly of a craftsman before he died, he just stabbed the bug to death, but refused to move his feet.

"Praise the name of the dark moon, and wash away the tiredness of the body and mind of the world with the light outside the eyes. God loves the world, holy."

Recovered from the shock of seeing the insect tide for the first time, Shuer raised his hand and the healing magic shone on the heads of the defending mercenaries. The warriors in the battle felt a warm feeling on their bodies. The injuries caused by the insects, regardless of the severity, began to heal quickly, and their strength returned to their bodies. Although the number of people decreased by three, their combat power was stronger than at the beginning.

"Everyone is here." The high-level mercenaries appeared one by one. Until Moria came in at the end, Mia only looked sternly at the people who had been isolated by Dark and were not allowed to approach, especially the ordinary scholars inside, "Where is Fusen, he is the team leader, where is the people?"

The Fusen mentioned in Mia was of course one of her two assistants, and the old mage who decided to take this group of people to risk leaving the shelter. The scholars smiled bitterly and moved out of their sight. Only then did everyone realize that the old mage had several holes opened on its body. Although he was still alive, he was already dying and might die at any time.

Before Mia could say anything, Shur had thrown away a magical technique to treat minor injuries, stopping the blood that kept coming out of the wound. This level of wound can no longer be solved by using the magical technique of healing. Several wounds have already injured their internal organs. If they don’t take any treatment, they will let the wound heal without treatment. I’m afraid Fusen will not survive for three days. So Shur just temporarily saved his life. For treatment, it’s better to wait until he has the chance to talk about it.

"Mia, go and learn about the situation and report it later. Suffer, monitor the projection gate, tell me after confirming the closure." He looked at the endless tide of insects around him in a tangled manner. Shure sighed secretly, and said as if nothing had happened on the surface, "Dak joins the battle, remember not to be too arrogant. I don't want to attract the attention of the swarm from the mutant spiders. Friesen, don't run around, the ability of the swarm is unknown. If you fall into the sea of ​​insects, look at their attack level, you may not be able to come back alive. You are in the defense circle and cooperate with Dak to stabilize the front."

"Yulie, you can distribute the consumed materials we brought to these people and carry them themselves. Remember that it is excess materials, and don't distribute what we want to use."

"Okay, this job is simple." He said this, but Yuli knew in his heart that it was not simple at all.

These people definitely have no food and water, and the eight high-level mercenaries brought not much water, and it was only a day or two to so many people. It doesn’t take much time to leave here. It’s not easy to calm these people’s emotions so that they won’t fall into chaos.

I'm just an ordinary winged man. How do you know that I'm good at this kind of comfort and dispatch work?

"Militi, can you revive these bugs to fight like before?" Shul could not hear Yuli's thoughts, and he would pretend not to hear them.

"No, I tried it just now, and it's okay to recover, but after it woke up, I couldn't control it. Even if it turned into a zombie, it still relied entirely on instinct action. Its instinct... seems to attack everything different. But you know, I have spare bones..."

"Don't waste it, depending on the situation, this time Zhuying will be a protracted war. It's better to stay in a more important place. There is no need to do it now." Shaking his head and interrupting Militi's proposal. Finally, Shuer turned his eyes to the beautiful Lin Jing, "Moriya, you... don't do anything randomly, change back quickly."

Yes, without Shuer paying attention, Moria had once again transformed into a tree form. A sudden increase of an oak tree more than ten meters high on the open plain, which looked quite abrupt.

"Eh? Isn't it possible?" Moria returned to her deer shape in disappointment. "Is there any danger?"

"There is no tree around, not even normal plants, only these ghosts under your feet." After stepping on the purple fungus blanket, Shuer explained, "You become a tree form. On the one hand, if you are too tall, it will attract the attention of the insect tide. On the other hand, depending on the situation, they may even attack plants. If you deal with them like you do with burrow spiders, you may fall into their trap and be attacked by them in a intensive manner. So you can fight normally, support Dark and Friesen at a distance, and don't let your vines go out and run around."

"Okay OK, I get it."
