my avatar drama

Chapter 177 Traveler
When the slug Wanyi climbed back to the wall, Moss was no longer visible by the lake in the distance.

He jumped directly into the acid lake.

The burning sensation stimulated by the acid did not appear.

As a matter of course, the cockroach who had gained Urn's power was no longer afraid of these acids. He swam boldly in the acids, wrapped his small body in a cloak and swam like a slug.

At last he left the lake of Unn and entered the jungle on the shore.

……

"Is this related to your praying mantis family?" Wan Yi said, looking at the corpse of a bug with multiple eyes nailed to a totem stone pillar in front of him.

They went deeper and deeper in the fungal wasteland, and encountered several waves of attacks from mushrooms. They were getting tired of eating roasted mushrooms, and their avatars said they didn't want to eat them. Fortunately, there was Mr. Mask, a big eater.

Most traces of primitive civilization in the Fungal Wastes come from these mushrooms.

They left many totems here.

However, the totem pole in front of me is different from the previous one, and its style is quite different. It is obviously not left by the mushroom tribe. As for the corpse on it, it is naturally not that of a praying mantis. It looks a bit like a spider.

"This totem! That's right, it is indeed the trace of my relatives!" Kurom was a little excited when he heard this and rubbed his sickle.

The avatar of Wan Yi next to him was growing mushrooms at this time, and he was tinkering with a kind of spore bomb in his hand.

It absorbed the fragments of the mushroom and completed the qualitative change. After the qualitative change was started, there was not much change, but many green and cute mushrooms grew on the body, especially the one in the center of the head.Among them, it specifically absorbs a special fungal organism in large quantities.

This fungal creature spits out explosive spores that are extremely unstable and pack a lot of power, giving them a little trouble along the way.

This fungal creature will silently mark the target with spores within a certain range, and then the bomb released will track the moving non-fungal creature target.

This avatar feels great. After the qualitative change, I am doing research. After focusing, I am not very interested in other things.

The Mr. Mask on top of Wan Yi's head next to him poked his head to grab a mushroom from him from time to time, but he ignored it.

At this time, there are more and more totem poles and "bound" bug corpses in front of them.

It seems that the legendary mantis family is not far away.

Using the totem pole as a guide, they have a direction. Along the way, they can see the remains of many not weak creatures. They are all hung up high and nailed in conspicuous places as if to show their glory and strength, so that all passing by can be seen by everyone.

And soon, a tall figure appeared in front of him.

The blue body, blade-like arms, and white neck and head are exactly the same as Kurom, but it is obvious that this is a fully mature mantis.

Coulom was one size smaller in front of it.

"I finally saw your kind."

"Ah."

Wan Yi glanced at it, thinking why it suddenly became silent.

There may be many of them, but Wan Yi didn't bother to think about it, so as usual, Wan Yi rubbed his little hands and walked up: "Hello, hello, I am the cockroach loved by everyone in the world."

The praying mantis warrior quickly turned around and stepped back to distance himself, looking at Wan Yi warily.

"Intruders, destroy!"

The big eyes on Wan Yi's helmet were half-opened: "You Hallownests don't have anything other than territorial awareness? What the hell is the ecology of Hallownest!"

Before he finished speaking, the ferocious blade slashed.

Wan Yi retreated and dodged: "Is this the only way to grow up? It doesn't feel like you are better than Kurom."

Coulom quickly waved his hand: "Don't! Stop hitting!"

It stood in front of the praying mantis warrior and said, "I am..."

"Leave the country and rebel! Die!"

As a result, after saying another sentence on the opposite side, he was even more merciless towards Coulom.

Coulom had to show his two knives to fight against him, but he fell into a disadvantage within a few rounds.

Wan Yi frowned: "Ah? I just praised you!"

"but I……"

boom!
Because Wan Yi's words were distracted for a moment, Kurom was directly broken from the defensive posture, and the praying mantis warrior kicked Kurom down with a kick, and the blade went straight to its neck.

Wan Yi suddenly swiped back, and the spore bomb in the hands of the cockroach fungus was taken away at once.

Then Wan Yi threw it towards the Mantis Warrior.

The praying mantis warrior stopped his charge, saw it was a spore bomb out of the corner of his eye, and retreated quickly.

boom!
After the spore bomb detonated, it made a dull explosion sound, and at the same time spread a large number of red spores. The mantis warrior was obviously no stranger to this situation, and waved his blade to disperse the smoke.

Then turned sharply, and the blade collided with a bone nail.

Ding!
After a crisp sound, Mantis Warrior's body stiffened for a moment, and Wan Yi's soul-eating wand switched to dagger mode, directly threw himself on Mantis Warrior's shoulder, and circled behind him.

The mantis warrior tried to struggle, but the dagger pierced directly into its neck, announcing the end of it.

Boom!
The body of the mantis fell down, and Wan Yi turned to look at Kurom who had climbed up after landing: "Kulom, Kurom, Kurom... What are you doing?"

He got the soul of this praying mantis, which was pure white.

It was not infected, but it was still aggressive, far higher than Moss.

The avatar looked at the empty hands, very speechless, took out another spore bomb from the mushroom on his body and rubbed it on his hands.

And Coulom was a little dazed: "I just want to go home? Why did I become a traitor?"

The fungal clone said casually: "The mantis family has a great sense of honor and is quite conceited. No matter what the reason is, it's normal not to be accepted as a mantis who escaped from the group."

Looking along the way, even though I didn't really see the mantis family, the totem poles lined up and the corpses framed around them have already explained a lot.

The most unacceptable thing for a race that is so fierce, full of martial virtues, and arrogant is to be deviant.

"Haven't you thought about it before?" Wan Yi said to Colum.

Coulom sat down discouraged: "There is... but there has always been a fluke."

Wan Yi and his clone looked at each other, and the clone lowered its head and continued rubbing the spores.

"Are you still going?"

Callum was silent.

"Then I'm leaving." Wan Yi and the avatar didn't continue to care about it, and continued to penetrate into the territory of the mantis clan together.

Colum suddenly didn't understand: "Didn't you come here to accompany me?"

"I just came to Hallownest when I lost my way. My main purpose is to experience the customs and insects of Hallownest. What can I do if I don't continue to look ahead." Wan Yi said without turning his head.

Kurom was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he still chose to follow Wan Yi.

Wan also didn't care.

A clear small lake appeared in front of him, not the kind of acidic lake water, Wan Yi asked his avatar to test the water, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it.

A village can be vaguely seen on the other side of the lake, surrounded by totems, and the corpses of huge bugs and beasts are neatly bound.

"Oh? It's another group of rare travelers. I'm glad to see you in this quiet place." A voice suddenly sounded from the side.

They turned their heads and saw an insect not much taller than Wan Yi approaching, but Wan Yi felt that the reason why the other party was taller than him was because its limbs were slender and slender.

There is a pair of slender bone nails pinned to its waist, which are somewhat worn, but their sharpness remains undiminished.

It's just that the temperament of this bug itself is quite gentle, not like a warrior, but more like a scholar, a traveler.

It tightened some hoods slightly, and glanced over the two Wan Yi and Kurom.

"Hello, hello, I'm a cockroach that everyone loves!" Wan Yi immediately rubbed his hands to say hello.

The bug in front of him said, "You little man, is cockroach your name? My name is Quiro, an explorer who has a longing for Hallownest."

"Ah, cockroaches are my race, my name is Wan Yi."

It is difficult to describe in words how touched Wan Yi is at this time.

How many times, how many times!
No matter how many times he introduced himself in this world, he didn't appreciate it at all. He still firmly believed that this world of bugs would not have any prejudice against cockroaches!Until today, except for the idiot Collom, finally someone answered his words!

"My name is Colum." Colum said politely.

"This is my avatar, you can call him Wan Yi, or ignore him." Wan Yi patted the elastic mushroom on his avatar's head and introduced.

The avatar also nodded and said, "It's best to ignore me."

Kui Ruo smiled and said, "What an interesting traveler, with a completely different style from the silent little man before."

"We're going to Mantis Village, will Kui Ruo come with us too?" Wan Yi asked.

"No, I have already seen it from there. I don't have the habit of staying in one place for a long time. If you are going to challenge the aggressive praying mantises, unfortunately I can only bless you." Kui Ruo Said.

But it paused, and then turned to say: "But as long as we are still in Hallownest, we will always meet again. Traveling is such a wonderful thing."

"It's really free and easy." Wan Yi said.

"It's just running around out of curiosity." Quiruo looked at Kurom again: "Such a polite mantis is really rare. In Mantis Village, even young mantises are fighting to prove their strength to the group."

Colum lowered his head slightly, hesitant to speak.

"You should be an adult, but your wings have not completely degenerated. Although you still have some ability to fly, the half-open and half-closed state has affected your down-to-earth fighting. You may find a way to get rid of this state."

Coulom was a little surprised: "I've been in this state for a long time. I always thought that all praying mantises were like this."

Wan Yi glanced at Kurom, then at Qui Ruo.

This worm seems to know a lot, and there is wisdom hidden in his eyes.

Sure enough, the breath of a scholar is stronger than that of a soldier.

"You really are a stray praying mantis." Kui Ruo said in a confident tone, "It may be related to your state of mind. As an outlier praying mantis, you have to think far more than your fellow mantises."

Kui Ruo's gentle tone reminded Wan Yi of Liang Rendao.

Gently ask the other party's questions and give the other party just the right guidance.

A mentor-like temperament.
