Chapter 223 Artificial Fortifications

The giant mutated spider mother weighing tens of thousands of kilograms ignored the tiny bugs around her and allowed the bugs to try to climb onto her body, only to be captured by the small spiders lurking on her body.

Only this time, the little spiders did not kill the bugs and throw them aside as before. This time they did not even kill the bugs directly. Instead, they injected digestive juice into the bugs and quickly spit them out from the abdomen. Silk threads are used to make spider sacs from the insects and fixed on the back of the spider mother.

Not long after, there were hundreds of spider sacs that were more than half a meter high behind the spider mother. The struggling and squirming spider sacs were crowded together, like a honeycomb, so dense that it made people feel sick.

"Boom", the mutated spider mother, who had thousands of kilograms of weight on her back, seemed to be unaware of it. She shook her body to shake off the excess insects, and began to move towards the opposite direction to the direction of the insect tide. It seemed that even These powerful mutated spiders also know that the insect tide is difficult to deal with and are unwilling to directly conflict with the insect tide.

But think about it, although the bugs can't break through the shell of the spider, the physical strength of the mutant spider is limited after all. If the bugs are really endless, then sooner or later the spiders will run out of physical strength and be slaughtered by others. I'm afraid the mutant spider will It is because the mother has recognized this that she will lead the children to start a strategic shift.

"It's now." Shuer raised his voice and ordered loudly, "Everyone bring their belongings and prepare to move positions."

Obviously, the sudden movement of the mutant spider mother attracted the attention of most of the bugs. People with good eyesight can even notice that some of the bugs that were originally waiting to besiege the intelligent creature's position turned around and chased after the mutant spider mother. , there is obviously a lot of space around the human side.

This is the opportunity he has been waiting for. Shuuer has already calculated that the mutated spider mother will move sooner or later, so he always insists on staying in place no matter the cost. If he moves around without waiting for the spider mother to move first, it is very likely to irritate the bugs like now. , then the relationship between humans and spiders will probably be reversed. Humans will become the main targets of bugs, while the spiders can leave leisurely.

"They are all bugs, where are they going?" someone in the crowd shouted loudly.

"Did you see the man-made building behind you? Didn't you see it? You must have seen the vague shadow. It is a man-made building and has not been demolished by insects yet. There must be a reason. Let's go there. "Xuer said with a straight face, "Those who have no fighting ability, listen up, everyone gather together, those who are running around, give up, those who are left behind, give up, and those who cause trouble to the team, give up."

"If you want to leave this world alive, throw away your thoughts and turn yourself into a machine that can only follow the team. If you can't do it, hehe, I wish you good luck. In addition, you should carry digging tools with you. Well, take them out. If there are bugs rushing towards you, don't be stunned. At least resist and drive them away. You all came from Parvatija, and your physical fitness is no worse than these bugs. You don't even resist. If you just stand there and let the bugs drag you away, then I can only pray for you."

"Ordinary mercenaries, thirteen? Well, okay, thirteen of you will be the vanguard and rush towards the artificial building in an arc formation. The insect tide in the retreat direction is not thick. With your strength, you can definitely rush out. Remember , No matter what happens, never stop. You can go slower, but you must always keep moving. If someone falls behind, let him die. If you stop by yourself, then die yourself."

"Dak, Saff, and Friesen, the three of you break up the rear. Dak and Saff fight head-on. Friesen is responsible for cleaning up those who slipped through the net and ran in. Militty, keep your spirits up. Don't look at me. I I know you can fight without summoning skeletons, but this is an order. Mia, the same goes for you, just follow the team and watch, and you two can take your time."

"Moria, please stop jumping. I know you are a deer. You don't have to remind me all the time. Can't you shoot acorns out of your hair? I didn't ask you to shoot me. Please be quiet. The acorns will be released for a while. The number is limited? Then use arrows or something like that. Anyway, you are responsible for assisting these mercenaries in their advance. Don’t put them under too much pressure and don’t let them die. They are still useful.”

"Yuli, remember one thing, you are absolutely not allowed to fly into the sky. Although there is only one kind of bug now, but with their awareness of only fighting, I don't think they can survive normally in this world. Militty, from your perspective From a professional perspective, is it possible for this organism to survive as a separate population?”

"Impossible." Militty denied it without thinking. "They have no ability to survive at all. Take bee colonies as an example. These bugs are just soldiers. Without the cooperation of other types of bees, they will soon become extinct."

"That's right, this is just a group of combat weapons." Shuer continued to order, "It's impossible to tell whether there are flying combat creatures in the insect swarm. In theory, there should be, and it's also impossible to tell whether that type of creature is included. I don’t want to provoke the flying insects because of your flying, and I don’t want you to face thousands of flying insects alone in the sky, do you?”

nonsense.Of course Yuri shook his head vigorously, who would want to encounter such a thing.

"Then don't fly, just walk on two legs. You help Dak and the others cut off the back together. Don't use any eye-catching magic. Wind magic without sound and light effects is best, followed by ice, fire, thunder, etc." It will never be used, no problem." Yuri flapped his wings and made a reassuring gesture.

"Everyone remembers their mission. If anyone makes a mistake, he or she will die, or everyone will die together. No doubt about it, very good. How many people can survive depends on whether they can reach the destination smoothly. Now, Set off immediately."

With an order, the long-prepared team began to take action.

The mutant spider mother is not fast, but she is huge. She can cover a distance of more than ten meters in one step. In just a moment, she has advanced several hundred meters and is getting smaller and smaller in her field of vision.

Not only did it leave on its own, but it also very considerately led away the main force of the insect tide. Most of the insects were chasing behind it, even the newly arrived insect swarms from a distance were no exception. They mainly went after the mutated spider mother. Well, not even one percent of them rushed toward humans.

At this time, there are only a few thousand bugs surrounding humans. Of course, this number is quite large, but compared to the tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of bugs in the ocean before, a few thousand is really not worth it. After all, at least it can no longer stop humans from surviving.

Although the thirteen ordinary mercenaries were exhausted and panting, seeing the sharp reduction of the insect swarm under Shuer's control, the mercenaries undoubtedly saw hope of survival, which allowed them to squeeze out their potential again with their will. Regardless of his exhausted body, Huhu was able to wield the sword again.

As for the ordinary workers, of course they were very scared, but they were Parvatiga people after all.Dangerous wilderness, bloodthirsty monsters, three mysterious and strange natural killers, and a changeable and harsh environment are all threatening the lives of the Parvatiga people. Anyone who dares to leave the protection of the city and enter the wilderness for money The Parvatiga people are highly resistant to death and fear. Even if they are trembling with fear from the scale of the insect tide, they will not dare to move. Even the most timid people will not dare to move. Able to carry his luggage and follow closely behind the mercenaries, trying to place his body within the arc-shaped defense circle formed by the mercenaries.

The sudden movement of dozens of humans really caught the insect swarm off guard. Before they could react, large swathes of their kind fell down.Stepping on the green plasma of the bugs, the humans fought their way through the chaotic swarm of bugs, leaving behind only mountains of bug corpses and their broken arms.

However, these insects were fighting by instinct. They were confused for only a few seconds before regaining their fighting power. They let out shrill screams like tearing silk, chased after the team, and tried to devour the team from behind.

It's a pity that their opponents have changed. They are no longer ordinary mercenaries of the bronze level, but real strong men. They are gold-level combat professions in the world of Parvatiga who are only one step away from the legendary level at the pinnacle of life. Or, there is no comparison at all in terms of combat effectiveness between the two.

The attack restrictions were lifted. The only requirement was not to create eye-catching sound and light effects. There was an open space around him. Dak, who was riding the Nightmare Beast, could finally fully display his power. The Nightmare Beast slowly Running in small steps, he swung the bloody spear as much as he wanted. Every time he swung it, a half-moon-shaped fighting spirit blade would be drawn on the tip of the spear. The fighting spirit blade was indestructible, harvesting the lives of insects in large swaths.

As for Saff, bugs rarely see her. Her speed is too fast. As long as the steps don't stop, bugs' vision cannot capture her influence, and they can only be cut into pieces by the invisible sword in a helpless way. Two halves.

One opened and closed, and the other flew across the field as fast as lightning. With these two people behind, the swarms of insects could only keep chasing behind the team. Even if they tried their best, they could not get even half a step closer to the team. Not to mention attacking ordinary people who are being protected. In this way, Friesen becomes the easiest one, and can only hide in the shadows and do nothing.

The bugs were also trying to outflank the team from both sides, using their speed to get to the front of the team and block the team's progress. However, with the ordinary mercenaries in front, the bugs that surrounded them little by little were not enough to put pressure on them. Before they could encircle them, they were all killed by the mercenaries. Even if the encirclement was successful, after a hail of arrows, the encirclement would be in disarray and would be ineffective.

"Try harder." Xiuer cast a spell while moving and restored a small amount of physical strength to several workers carrying the injured. The effect of healing magic on restoring physical strength was not good, but at least it was better than nothing. "There are more than 100 meters." , you can reach your goal, the hope of survival is right in front of you, hold on."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the first few mercenaries staggered. A closer look showed that everyone had reached the edge of the purple carpet, and beyond that was the gray-yellow land. At the same time, in the distance, There are also strange movements on the man-made buildings.
