Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 334 The Giant White Nest
The yellow-brown sand swayed into bursts of flying dust, which were also mixed with the fine scales and feces of insect wings, as well as those grim-looking mummies of bluefly and human flies.

Xu Er was so frightened that he turned around and ran, shouting as he ran, "Xiao... Hu... run!"

After all, Xiao Ran and Hu Bayi were closer to the periphery, and they moved relatively quickly. They turned their heads and retreated backwards, one step faster than Xu Er.

Driven by external forces, the mixed sand particles coming in like waves have no weaker impact than sea waves.Especially with corpses ranging from a few kilograms to tens of kilograms mixed in, if they were hit, they would at least break their bones.

Hu Bayi and Xiao Ran quickly retreated to a safe place, and Xu Er ran up to a pillar, and climbed four or five meters up the pillar like a monkey.A mummy was caught in the sand waves and hit the pillar at the foot, breaking in two in the middle.

The waxy hollow pillar also shook and vibrated slightly at this time, Xu Er cried out in fright, and hugged the pillar even more tightly, helplessly like a young macaque without a mother.

The worst thing was Fatty, he was the slowest in movement, and he also ran into the time when his physical strength was the weakest.He just turned around and ran a few steps, and then turned around to get the bag, when a mummified corpse of a grandma rushed towards his face.

He lowered his head to dodge the mummified corpse that might explode, and exhausted all his strength, so he had to hide behind the pillar next to him, allowing the sand wrapped in the mummified corpse to rush over from both sides, slowly burying it from his feet all the way up.Even so, he still held onto his backpack tightly.

Hu Bayi and Xiao Ran had retreated ten meters away, and the sand rushed all the way to their feet before finally stopping.At this time, the whole hall was full of dust, and the shiny scales flew in the sky, flying to the flame of the oil lamp from time to time, sparking a burst of sparks.

Hu Bayi and Xiao Ran quickly took out their masks and put them on, taking advantage of the fact that the dust on their side was not too serious.Looking up at the sand in front, I saw a tall unknown building looming in the sand, and mummified corpses standing in the sand, as if they were in some abandoned ancient battlefield.

Xu Er's scream and fat man's moan came from the dust, Xiao Ran and Hu Bayi hurriedly stepped on the loose sand, avoiding the flailing corpses, and rushed to the nearest Xu Er.

Walking closer, Xiao Ran saw Xu Er's situation clearly, jumped up and slapped him on the buttocks, shouting: "Stop making noise, come down by yourself, we don't have time to care about you!"

Xu Er wore goggles, but closed his eyes and yelled on the pillar, probably thinking that he was about to be buried alive.But until now, he was still five or six meters away from the sand under his feet.After being slapped by Li Ran, he screamed in surprise, looked down at his feet, and hurriedly climbed down.

A few people walked to the side of the fat man. The fat man's situation was much more dangerous. His chest was buried in sand, his face was swollen red and purple, and he could only let out a few helpless groans by taking the opportunity to breathe.

"You're desperate for money!"

While complaining, Hu Bayi didn't stop his hands, he quickly scraped the sand around the fat man with a shovel, Xiao Ran and Xu Er also rushed over to help, and waited until the fat man's stomach finally emerged from the sand, he began to gulp Panting heavily, his complexion improved a lot.

"There's not so much sand, how could it have buried half of it?" Xiao Ran asked doubtfully.

It wasn't until everyone got to the fat man's thigh that they saw the clue.At some point, the fat man pulled the backpack over and sat firmly on it, causing himself to be buried by sand and corpses.He was really afraid that the pieces of gold and jade in his backpack would be buried in the sand and could not be found.

They dragged the fat man up from the sand, Hu Bayi wanted to reprimand him a few words, but he held back, silently took out the water bottle and told him to rinse his mouth and nose.

At this time, the dust was slowly falling away, and they shook the dust that covered their bodies, and finally saw clearly the giant that rose from the ground.

It was an extra-large white insect nest, shining silvery white light under the light of the oil lamp.The four sides of the white insect nest have a frame made of stone bricks, and the insect nest is fixed in the center by a thick stick, like a huge handicraft.

The four people present were very familiar with the appearance of this white insect nest, and this was precisely the enlarged version of the large pearl-like insect nest model brought back by Xiao Ran.

The hearts of several people "thumped", especially Xiao Ran and Xu Er, they saw it with their own eyes at the Xia Niang Temple, that small white sphere awakened a large number of moths hidden in the insect nest.

At this time, the air in the hall heated by the lights has begun to convect with the surrounding cold air.The small holes in the wall also began to continuously breathe in and out of air, making a "woo-woo" sound, which echoed in the hall like a ghost crying.

Although the surrounding insect nests had become empty nests, the pressure on the hearts of several people increased sharply in the surrounding of those wailing ghosts surrounded by the staring and mouth-opening mummies.

They nervously illuminated the surrounding environment with their flashlights, repeatedly confirming that the mummies would not suddenly jump up again.But when Xiao Ran's eyes returned to the giant white ball in front of him, his heart shook violently.

The huge white ball, in the "woo woo" ghost cry, actually shook slightly a few times, and began to slowly rotate around the central metal rod as the axis.

Xiao Ran patted the other people, and everyone's eyes turned to the white ball in the middle. The speed of the white ball's rotation gradually accelerated, and gas flowed in and out of the hollow above, making a sharp whistling sound, and the sky was full of ghosts crying. The sound intertwined and resounded throughout the hall.

Several people covered their ears subconsciously, and the hollow pillars around them began to tremble slightly amidst the high-pitched sounds surrounding the hall.

They instinctively felt that something bad would happen if this continued, but they couldn't do anything about the huge white ball with a diameter of nearly ten meters.Xiao Ran looked at the Guanshan Knife in his hand, and subconsciously estimated how many knives would be needed to chop all the big white ball.

At this time, Hu Bayi suddenly rushed forward a few steps, took out the pistol in his waist, and fired several shots at the giant white nest.The fat man shouted from behind: "Old Hu, you can't shoot this thing enough, you have to bombard it..."

At this time, the large oil lamp bowl above the white ball suddenly shook a few times, and then the iron chain above it suddenly broke, and a large amount of dark brown shark oil turned into a stream of fire and splashed on the giant white nest.

Flowing fire continued to flow into the core along the hollow of the giant nest, and in an instant the waxy white giant nest was melted by a small amount.Only then did several people understand Hu Bayi's intentions, and not only applauded.

But the rotation of the giant nest didn't stop immediately, but still issued a slightly weakened sharp sound from the remaining part.At this moment, Xiao Ran heard a burst of impacts, buzzing sounds, and even a hazy roar from the four huge passageways around him, and they were constantly shaking at the same time.

And the buzzing sound of flapping wings also came from those pillars that towered above the sky.Xiao Ran looked up at the hexagonal holes above the pillars, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind that made him jump.

These pillars are also insect nests...
