Chapter 227 The Matrix
Chapter 227: The mother body
"Okay, let's leave more energy to think about how to deal with the mother sandworm."
At the moment when the two of them were rising in momentum, Yang Fan suddenly walked to the middle of them, intending to persuade them to stop.
Looking at Yang Fan, who was in the aura of the two of them, who looked nothing wrong, the Thunder Emperor was really surprised. Although they had not fought each other yet, just because of the other party's slight attitude, they were one of his strong enemies.
If Yang Fan could hear the voice of the Thunder Emperor, who had always regarded him as an idol in his dream, he would probably feel a sense of pride in his heart.
Through this short moment of fighting experience, we have roughly got to know each other. With the arrogant personality of the Thunder Emperor, we can't help but admit the other's strength.
"Let me introduce it first, Yang Fan, this is Mu Bai, Fenghuang, Xiaoyun, Luo Cheng, and you haven't asked your grand name for Gao yet?"
When asked the last question, Yang Fan couldn't help but prick up his ears. He was really curious about the other party's real name.
In the dream, the Thunder Emperor is not only a title, but also a symbol. As for the Thunder Emperor's real name, it disappears into the long river of history.
"Thunder." The Thunder Emperor still had a cold face and said with a pity for words.
After getting this answer, Yang Fan was really speechless. Looking at the unchanging face of Chen, he couldn't tell whether the other party was telling the truth or was simply perfunctory.
"Okay, Lei, you came here the earliest, let's talk about some of the situations you know first."
Several people walked to a higher terrain and looked far away, and even saw a few half-white and half-yellow bugs wandering there.
"There are a lot of bugs here, so I'm here." Lei Emperor said in a faint tone.
Yang Fan has discovered that talking to the other party is actually quite tiring. The other party's words are so concise that they still need to guess the meaning of the words.
From the words of the Thunder Emperor, Yang Fan could hear several meanings. First, the other party did not know the terrain and the distribution of insects here. Second, if they had not appeared, the Thunder Emperor might have spent a while here, and continued to advance into the mountains alone, and eventually killed the mother of the sandworm.
In a trance, Yang Fan felt a sense of fateful arrangement in his heart, and the doubts hidden in his heart seemed to have found an answer. Perhaps the water shortage crisis in Lei Gong Village was resolved by Lei Emperor's inadvertent measures.
"Okay, let's just go in." Thinking of what Lei Emperor could do alone, there was no reason that their team could not be completed, Yang Fan couldn't help but say enthusiastically.
No one has any objection to this proposal, after all, for demon hunters, they like to solve problems directly.
"Be careful, this place is already within the territory of the sandworm."
Although sandworms are not bloody and do not feed on flesh and blood, they still have a strong sense of territory. Any creature entering their territory will be attacked mercilessly by them.
It is precisely for this reason that Yang Fan once again reminds everyone carefully after coming down the mountain.
Coincidentally, shortly after Yang Fan's words landed, a group of sandworms with a population of about fifty appeared in front of them.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Lei's brows trembled. According to his previous fighting style alone, he could fight if he could beat him. If he couldn't beat him, he would find an opportunity to separate the other party and then find an opportunity to annihilate him.
Previously, when he encountered a swarm of insects above double digits, he would not choose to fight to the death, but would fight and run while fighting. He would bite him back when he found an opportunity and slowly grind the swarm to death.
But now he formed a temporary team with others. Before Lei Emperor could adapt to this new identity, he simply shut up and saw what the other people said.
"On average, each person has less than ten sandworms. Not many, so just go straight on." Mu Bai said carelessly, but from his ability to accurately tell the specific number of these insects, it can be seen that he has not thought about it.
"Hey, okay, the extra few heads will depend on who will move faster." Luo Cheng was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, so he also came forward to make fun of it.
Phoenix and the little loli also nodded heavily. Judging from their expressions and movements, there were 1,000,000 willing.
"Since everyone agrees with this plan, I have nothing to say. I just don't know what you mean by Brother Lei?" Yang Fan actually agreed to this plan in his heart, and he would greet the other party specifically out of etiquette and respect.
The thunder Emperor had initially realized the madness of this group of people. Faced with a group of insects with a number of more than half a hundred and all composed of second-level maturity, it was as easy as drinking cold water among these people. It could be said that it was crazy to be so naive. Although the thunder Emperor was bold and walked alone in a world full of insects, it was all based on his actions that he had the ability to protect himself.
The corners of Lei Emperor's cold mouth moved slightly and nodded. This was the first expression change that Yang Fan and others made since they saw him.
Although his actions were a little crazy, the Thunder Emperor said in his heart that he liked it.
"Then what are you waiting for? Go." After seeing the Thunder Emperor nodding, Mu Bai said impatiently, and took the lead in running towards the sandworm that was rushing towards him.
Then Phoenix, Little Loli, and Luo Cheng went up to him without being outdone. In an instant, only Yang Fan and the evil man from Thunder Emperor were left behind.
"Look at it, who can kill more and who can kill faster?" Yang Fan felt extremely complicated when he said this. Who is the other party? He is among the top ten strong men in the world and is ranked very high. Regardless of winning or losing, just referring to this experience, it is probably something that Yang Fan could not expect in his dream.
Faced with Yang Fan's slightly provocative words, the Lei Emperor knew that the other party had a scent of aggression, but he still couldn't help but feel warlike in his heart. He did not reply, but expressed his wish with practical actions.
The Thunder Emperor suddenly accelerated, surpassing Mu Bai and others who were taking the lead, and directly stuffed a football-sized electric ball into the mouth of a sand worm, then left it behind and ignored it. He also took a look at another sand worm not far away and rushed over quickly.
Mu Bai and others seemed to be very excited about the act of Lei Emperor robbing business. They screamed strangely, and they looked serious on their faces. They each chose a sand worm and rushed over like a competing force.
Facing the crowd who were aroused by fighting spirit, although Yang Fan did not show an uneasy expression on his face, his hands and feet were accelerated a little. As he moved forward, he had already condensed a black iron spear, which was enough to show how much he attached to verbal competitions.
The sandworm body is 1.5 meters long and 60 cm tall. It has a slender body, thin sides and thick in the middle. Its shell is beige. It has an oval head and two long tentacles on it. Eight short legs are strong and powerful. It moves fast and stable. The shell is not thick, but it is composed of small pieces and small pieces. It is distributed very uniformly and reasonably, and can spit acid liquid on the mouth. It has a strong comprehensive ability.
Although this type of all-round bug has no outstanding abilities in all parties, it does not have obvious weaknesses. If you want to solve it quickly, there is basically no way to take advantage of it.
Like the Thunder Emperor's incident of stuffing the lightning ball into his mouth, there was only one incident. After seeing the companion who was constantly rolling on the ground and wailing, the remaining sandworms also learned all the essence. They no longer rushed over with their big mouths, but instead raised their forelimbs and cut them to the human waist.
"Hey--"
Yang Fan held the black iron spear in both hands and swept forward, swept away the two forelimbs of the sandworm, and then slashed downwards. The long spear tip drew a long scar on the sandworm's body, and some light green liquid flowed out from the wound.
For the sandworm, these are just skin trauma, and there is no other effect except to make it more angry.
After jumping back and avoiding the attack swept horizontally, Yang Fan had already seen the characteristics of some sandworms in this simple attack and defense, and was thinking quickly about the best and fastest killing route in his mind.
The Thunder Emperor on the other side has killed two sandworms, which is the strength of the Thunder Emperor. Ordinary electric demon hunters can only attack from outside the insect's body and cause damage to the insect from the outside. However, the Thunder Emperor can directly penetrate a small part of the electricity into the insect's body. When it accumulates to a certain extent, it is the time for the insect to die.
This also caused many insects killed by the Thunder Emperor to have no scars on the outside, but the inside of the body has become charred. After all, compared with the body surface shell, the inside is much more fragile.
"Die." After mastering the movement rhythm of the sandworm, Yang Fan immediately found the right opportunity and gave the scarred sandworm in front of him a fatal blow.
Of course, spears can only be used to stab to exert their maximum power.
With the blow of five points of psychic energy infused, the black iron spear seemed to penetrate layers of paper armor, and finally touched a piece of softness.
After the sandworm swung his body twice, he immediately paused suddenly and there was no movement.
The Thunder Emperor's victory over there has been added to three heads. Although Yang Fan once admired this person, it does not mean that he hopes to admit defeat in this competition.
While pulling out the spear, Yang Fan encountered a little trouble, and the sandworms with fierce eyes rushing towards him.
Yang Fan then turned to hold the spear with one hand, but the other hand was holding it in the air, spreading his five fingers, just in front of the two sandworms.
A square metal wall appeared in front of his palm in an instant. Without the collision of the two sandworms, Yang Fan did not move at all, but his other hand held the spear tightly and pulled it up slowly but at a constant speed.
With the black iron spear in hand, Yang Fan's speed of killing sandworms was not slower than that of the Thunder Emperor, and his psychic energy consumption was much less.
Under the crazy slaughter of the two of them at any cost, the group of more than fifty sandworms quickly died.
In this battle, Mu Bai and the other four could basically be regarded as a foil. The number of sand insects killed was not as many as any of Yang Lei. Although there were four people who did not do their best, Yang Fan and Lei Emperor's terrifying output ability could not be erased.
There were 52 sandworms in total, and Mu Bai and the other four had dealt with a total of 16, while Yang Fan and Lei Emperor did kill eighteen.
Judging from the numbers, the two of them tied, but judging from the advantage of Lei Emperor taking the lead, the result should be that Lei Emperor lost.
The component of luck also plays a very important part of this, because the number of sandworms is limited after all, and later, the two spent more time finding targets than killing insects.
Therefore, neither Yang Fan nor Lei Emperor thought that this result could explain anything.
"Hehe, don't be busy with your work anymore. These sandworms have no nuclei in their bodies."
Seeing the few people touching the corpses all over the ground, Yang Fan said with some amusement and helplessness.
These sandworms are split from the mother body. If there is a chance of nuclei in each sandworm body, the whole world will not be crazy. Controlling a sandworm mother body is like guarding an old hen who can lay golden eggs, and you can obtain countless second-level insect nuclei. How could such a good thing happen in this world?
Only the mother sandworm has an insect nucleus, and it is a third-level top-grade insect nucleus. This insect nucleus alone is enough to make countless people crazy.
As time goes by, more and more people have advanced to the three-star demon hunter, but more people are still stuck at the level of the two-star high-level demon hunter. The third-level insect core is the most valuable thing now.
"Damn, young master, why didn't you say it earlier?" Mu Bai had already touched more than ten corpses in succession and was wondering whether his character was really bad to this extent, when Mu Bai heard Yang Fan's words, he immediately became irritated.
"Missage, mistake, I forgot about this matter for a moment." Yang Fan said without any sincerity.
Looking at the other people's faces, he looked at them with laughter and crying expressions. Although the Lei Emperor was still watching all this coldly, there was no slight fluctuation in his expression, but a sound sounded in his heart. Perhaps it was quite interesting to follow these people.
Then everyone did not rest. Instead, as I said just now, they did not dodge or dodge all the way, and rushed in in a straight line.
The battle was almost dark, and there were not a thousand or eight or nine hundred insects on the hands of Yang Fan and others. Finally, they arrived at the edge of the pool.
"Last time, I seemed to see the huge sand worm here." At some point, Dalang followed along the road that Yang Fan and others swept. Although he did not exert much force, because he did not retreat at the last time, Fenghuang generously expressed his forgiveness for the other party's rudeness to her last time.
Looking at the bare area around, Yang Fan couldn't help but frown, but they were depressed when they were run away by the sand worm.
Not to mention that the task of saving one party cannot be completed, Yang Fan is still thinking about the crystal in his body.
"Is it because he was so high-profile that he scared the sandworms away?" Yang Fan even wondered if they had cleared the sandworm bodies in the surrounding area. Otherwise, why did they stand in each other's nest for a long time without a sandworm appearing?
Unlike other egg-generated insects, the individuals that can split are extremely limited. Moreover, every time the mother splits, the mother needs to rest for a few hours before the next split. It can be said that even if the sandworm escapes this time, it may not be able to recover its vitality within a few months.
"Let's see, there are big footprints here." Phoenix shouted at a footprint that was thicker than her waist.
Yang Fan and his friends ran over quickly when they heard the sound and walked slowly forward along the footprints.
The last footprint was two meters away from the edge of the pool, and there were traces left by objects dragging by the ground.
The conclusion is obvious that the mother sandworms have entered the water, and it is possible that they are watching them under the water.
The diameter of this pool is more than ten meters long, enough to accommodate the huge body of the mother.
The question that troubles Yang Fan and others now is whether they should go into the water to find the mother of the sandworm?
Among Yang Fan's group, there are no one who is particularly proficient in water warfare. If they enter the pool, breathing in a short period of time is not a problem, but their strength will decline significantly. For example, Phoenix, after entering the water, her strength cannot even be exerted by three points.
Yang Fan and Lei Emperor were a little stronger, but they could only exert five or six points. With such strength, the risk factor was not ordinary high when dealing with the mother sandworm in unknown waters.
Before making a decision, Yang Fan kept thinking about another question in his mind. This sandworm is so smart that he found that he could not hide after he waited for someone to come.
"Be careful, retreat."
The answer did not make Yang Fan wait for too long. On the calm Tan's face, some small bubbles first appeared, but then the bubbles became bigger and bigger, and a white shadow appeared under the water pool.
Yang Fan even saw a pair of big water-blue eyes staring at their group.
"Boom."
The mother body of the sandworm suddenly drilled out of the water and rolled up a large number of water splashes, which forced Yang Fan and others to take more than ten steps to have the time to look at the giant creature in front of them.
Chapter completed!
