Chapter 559: Hybrid Swarm
under night.

Dune and his two companions were fleeing to the north.

The hunters were naturally eager to prove themselves and make achievements when they went out to explore for the first time, so they slightly changed their itinerary, lengthened the exploration process, and shortened the time for returning.

Three days later, they even explored areas beyond their plan.

Some rare plant resources were discovered in a foggy canyon.

brush-

The night wind blew through the collar, and the cold air was suffocating.

Shaqiu smelled the enemy approaching from behind, and his expression became more solemn:
"Speed ​​up, if you stop now you will die!"

The three people from Shaqiu continued to flee.

Unexpected discoveries are always a good thing.

But just as they were trying to collect samples and start their return journey.

Some dark green insects, resembling a combination of mantises and locusts, suddenly emerged from the canyon and attacked them.

These bugs have hard shells, attack fiercely, and come in large numbers.

In order to protect his two men, Shaqiu had to fight and retreat, running all the way to the camp.

Fortunately, the hunter's skills helped.

During the journey that took most of the night, they only suffered minor injuries.

Boom——

Under the cover of night, a roar suddenly sounded.

The three people from Dune were still running as hard as they could, trying to shake off the insects chasing them, but they were startled by the sound.

"What is that? It's thundering."

"It's the sound coming from the front!"

Amid the panicked voices of his two subordinates, Shaqiu recognized the owner of the voice:

"Arrows, they're arrows!"

Under the cover of the dim night, the pitch-black black-feathered sword cut through the sky.

Before Lindsay and the Hildes arrived, arrows shot from iron-horn bows flew towards them first.

Two dark night lights flashed in the darkness, entangled with each other, following each other like a shadow. After passing over the three people on the sand dune in an instant, there was a "crackling" sound when the shell broke.

The dunes possess the skills of the hunter.

He didn't even need to look back; he could smell the smell of this mutated insect when it was injured and bleeding just by moving his nose.

"..."

Sha Dun's expression was a little dull.

He did not doubt the effectiveness of the arrow. What really puzzled him was where the rescue would come from.

Even if you try your best on the way to escape.

Their current location is still about two days' journey from the camp.

Not to mention that no information was passed back at all. In theory, it was impossible for the camp to know their current situation.

And in the wasteland.

But I have never heard of anyone helping others when seeing injustice.

"How could there be support?"

"The distance from the camp..."

Dune was extremely shocked.

But just a few breaths later, he saw a figure rushing towards him quickly from the distance.

The two people behind the dune couldn't even distinguish each other.

Only the hunters, relying on the dynamic vision granted by their own skills, can barely distinguish the identities of people.

"Lin, Master Lindsay!"

After hesitating for a while, Lindsay had already arrived beside the three people from Dune.

He didn't do anything more, just left a reminder:
"Go to the back, Hirud is there, meet her."

boom!
The next second, Lindsay, Shaqiu and the other two passed each other.

The blazing flames also left a burning scar in the night.

More than 10 strange insects chasing them were instantly shattered, and the air was filled with the crisp smoke of burning shells. The three people in Dune took a few more steps forward due to inertia.

They turned their heads to look at the ground where flames were shooting up into the sky, and then turned back again to find Shiloh pushing a wheelchair and approaching them, panting.

The three of them were confused for a moment, so Shaqiu stepped forward to greet Hildreth:
"Ms. Hildreth..."

Hildre saw through the confusion of the three people at a glance:

"Okay, don't think about those messy things."

"Linsey and I used our skills to sense that you were in danger, so we came to help. Tell me the details now."

Shaqiu nodded slightly, stepped forward to help Shirud push the wheelchair, and began to narrate:
"That's right. We explored in the south direction according to the original plan. However, considering the difference in time spent on exploration and return, we wanted to break the original plan and explore a little further."

"We found fog in a valley."

"It's very difficult for fog to form in the wasteland, so I took them in to investigate..."

Dune informed Hildur of the specific situation.

In front of him, the flames around Lindsay gradually died down, and he fell into deep thought as he faced the insect corpses on the ground.

With these more than 10 kill samples.

[Hunting Notes] has already presented the specific information.

[Mutated Sheathworm]

[Hybrid Insect——Source Awakening Level 1~3]

[Body length 0.1~1.2 meters]

【Weight 1~47kg】

[The running speed is slightly faster than that of adult humans. 】

[Omnivorous insects, with sharp senses, quick movements, and no hibernation habits. ]

[A species created by artificial mixing after being infected by the plague. The mutated sheath blade insect has a hard shell and is extremely aggressive. It only follows the orders of the queen insect. The specific shell hardness and attack strength of this species increase with the increase of the degree of source fusion.]

【Weaknesses: brain, abdomen. 】

[Hunting advice: Kill the queen insect directly. ]

[Kill achievement: 13/50]

"Queen of Insects? Artificially mixed?"

When Lindsay saw these two words, she knew things were not simple.

The reproductive capacity of insect colonies with this kind of species structure is generally not weak, not to mention that this is an artificially mixed species.

Excellent reproductive ability often means a large amount of resource consumption.

Continue to combine the environmental analysis of the wasteland world.

The place where Dune and the others accidentally broke into might really be an incredible place!

“A lot of resources, a special environment.”

Lindsay collected materials while thinking.

A total of 10 sharp shells were found from these more than 7 insect corpses, which can be used to make insect-type armor as well as corresponding weapons.

Although Lindsay definitely can't use it in terms of intensity.

But it is also very good to make it into equipment and replenish the territory's inventory.

After collecting the prey materials, Lindsay collected the corpses of the insects. Since the introduction of this species did not say it was poisonous, she could take them back and tinker with them and make them food.

“Frugality is a virtue.”

"These resources cannot be wasted at all."

Lindsay cleans up the battlefield.

Sand Dune also pushed Hildreth over.

The hunter was about to say hello to Lindsay, but the Lord in the dark seemed to have predicted something and asked Dune in advance:
"Dune, did you encounter these bugs in a canyon where there are a lot of plants growing?"

Shaqiu was stunned for a moment, but nodded immediately:
"Yes, you are absolutely right!"

"Did you hear what we just said to Miss Hildreth?"

Dune thought Lindsay's hearing was too acute.

"No, I only know a rough idea." Lindsay waved his hand and began to give orders. "Let your men return to the camp and inform us that everything is fine and safe. Tell them not to panic."

"As for you, take us to that valley. Let's hurry up and investigate it thoroughly."
