Dark Age

Chapter 32

The air outside the city was filled with the smell of corrosion, and the stench was suffocating, as if someone had blown up a septic tank.

The road was extremely desolate, no one went out, not even the demon hunters dared to leave Qiantang City at this moment.

Because outside the city, there are tens of thousands of abyssal demons.

"It really smells like a bone worm."

The ravines were crisscrossed, corpses were everywhere, and there was a stench. Ye Mo touched the soil and smelled it again.

Abyssal demons like bone worms have a biological level of 5 to 10, and the stronger the pungent smell, the stronger their strength. Ye Mo is more familiar with this point than Xiyan.

"Most of them are level 5 bone worms. It seems that the level 8 bone worm is an exception." Ye Mo thought.

The bone worms are not the most terrifying. Although they are as powerful as the green goblin dwarves and live in groups, their explosive power can only be used once in a short period of time.

In other words, after evading a wave of attacks, these bone worms will be useless.

Their greatest ability is to corrode soil, rocks, and even metals to create residences for some abyssal demons who like to stay underground.

The bone worms are timid and fearful, but once other creatures invade their territory, they will be enraged and attack them in groups, often regardless of their lives.

So since it was a sneak attack, Ye Mo had to try to bypass them as much as possible.

But on the other hand, Ye Mo hopes to meet these bone worms, because the only piece of cartilage in the bone worm's body is a necessity for making the level 15 top-grade dagger weapon "Tian Que".

Ye Mo has been coveting this dagger for a long time. In his last life, he only got the materials when he reached level 30.

Because some rare weapons are not directly sold in the magic pattern tablet, demon hunters can only obtain materials to synthesize them.

As for the dagger "Tian Que", Ye Mo only got it at level 30, which shows how powerful it is.

It's a pity that this time we have to focus on missions, otherwise Ye Mo really wants to challenge the bone worms.

With a team of all level 5 members, it is really difficult to carry out this mission. Even if Ye Mo and the others succeed in changing jobs, they may not be able to complete this mission.

"However, the requirements for the Magic Weave Medal are still within the scope of ability. After all, the demons did not immediately launch a demon frenzy, which means that the opponent's scarlet ceremony is not yet ready."

The Crimson Ritual is required to start a demon frenzy.

A level five demon craze must be equipped with a level five scarlet ritual.

Before the demon frenzy, the demon leader will prepare a large number of sacrifices for the abyss master, and the feedback from the abyss master is the ability to control a large number of low-level abyss demons nearby.

Without this ability, it is impossible to launch a demon frenzy.

Obviously, the other party is still preparing, and this time is Ye Mo's opportunity.

Assassination can only be done during this period of time.

"No!" Ye Mo was pleasantly surprised, "The task on the Magic Pattern Medal is to resolve the crisis outside the city."

Resolving the crisis outside the city and killing the leader of the opponent are two different things.

There are many ways to resolve the crisis.

For example, the leader of the opponent was seriously injured, or the scarlet ceremony was interfered and failed.

It is very difficult to kill a leader, but if it is only to relieve the crisis, or to seriously injure it, then the difficulty will be greatly reduced.

In the deserted village, corpses are scattered all over the field, under the dark sky, the place is as quiet as a tomb.

All kinds of dried intestines, hearts, stomachs... everywhere.

The corpses of several adult men whose stomachs had been hollowed out were hung on the flagpole at the head of the village, and their body fluids dripped down.

"Look, what is this idiot captain doing, eating shit?" Ye Xiu poked Wang Xiaochun.

"Oh my God, he put shit under his nose."

Yuan Yu pinched his nose: "His hobbies are really special."

"Stupid, don't say it so loudly, he's here, let's look elsewhere."

Ye Mo looked at his subordinates speechlessly, could their voices be lowered?
"Cough cough..."

"From now on, we have to ditch the jeep and walk instead."

Ye Mo took out the map and put it on a stone mill.

"This is the territory of rotting corpses and green goblins, and here is the territory of scarlet giants, and there are many bone worms that you have never seen before..."

Ye Mo pointed to the route, "Let's take this trail and detour to the back of the place. Their leader should stay in Zhangjia Village."

Yuan Yu looked at the small road and said suspiciously: "Captain, this road is a bit far away. It may take two or three days for us to get there."

"I know there is another road, just in the southwest, leading to Zhangjia Village. The distance is short and the road is easy to walk, and Captain Tang and the others are taking that road."

"I know." Ye Mo nodded, he had already studied the surrounding situation thoroughly, this is the experience left over from his previous life.

"Although that road was passed by a scout, the land there is too muddy, and there are likely to be a large number of bone worms."

"The road we're walking on is relatively rocky, so even if we encounter bone worms, the number probably won't be too many."

Bone Worm?
Is there really such an abyssal demon?
Why does the military have no intelligence at all?
Ye Xiu and the others showed doubts.

Ye Mo didn't want to explain, anyway, his experience of living in the wild and fighting demons is extremely rich.

Along the way, they would definitely encounter bone worms, but as long as there were less than fifty, there would be no problem at all.

On the contrary, Tang Chen's side is very likely to die at the first checkpoint.

"Ma Chaohui!"

"Here!" Ma Chaohui's face remained unchanged, he was taciturn, and there was little expression on his face.

"Turn on your eagle eye skills, the most important thing is to aim at the ground, and report immediately if there is a situation."

"Yes!"

Although the eagle eye skill does not have the effect of perspective, it is "perceptive". As long as there is a slight change in the soil, it will definitely be discovered.

In fact, Ye Mo's extreme perspective is more convenient for this kind of underground investigation, but the three-turn skill consumes too much vitality, and Ye Mo can't open it at any time, and can only use it at critical times.

Ye Mo stared at Ma Chaohui, who reminded him of Yang Ou, a typical soldier, while the others were just military ruffians.

"Captain, do you have any orders?" Ma Chaohui asked loudly.

Ye Mo picked out his ears: "Sergeant Ma Chaohui, we are going to sneak attack. I am afraid that the enemy will find us after a few miles of your voice. Keep your voice down, keep your voice down..."

"Yes……"

……

Ye Mo led a few people to the back mountain of the village. There is a road for the villagers to go up the mountain. It has not been repaired. The mountain road is completely built by the villagers over the years.

After walking for half an hour, everyone was covered in sweat.

This sweltering weather, with only thunder and no rain, even Ye Mo can't stand it.

"hiss!"

Suddenly there was a strange movement on the ground full of withered branches and leaves. The fluctuation was so small that there was almost no sound. Even Ma Chaohui didn't notice it with his eagle eyes.

But as soon as it appeared, Ye Mo instinctively sensed the danger.

He didn't place his hopes on Ma Chaohui at all, because the other party didn't know anything about bone worms, and he had never even seen them.

What I said before was just to test the test.

The soil at Ye Mo's feet swelled up, and then a gray bug came out of the ground.

The two tentacles on the head flapped towards Ye Mo.

Bone Worm!
Without hesitation, Ye Mo patted his right hand lightly, and the black thorn landed in his hand, and then flew across quickly.

The snake hits seven inches!

The bone worm hit the middle!

Fold the bone worm's body in half, that point is their life gate.

Ye Mo's skill is very fast, and this is a level 5 bone worm, so he killed it in an instant.

puff.

The corpse was cut in half and scattered on the ground, with dark green blood oozing out.

"There is an enemy..." Ma Chaohui hadn't finished saying the word "person", but saw that the enemy was already dead.

What a quick response!

What a quick move!
The most important thing is Ye Mo's observation ability.

You know, even Ma Chaohui has just reacted.

After the silence, there was a moment of fear.

This is the bone worm?

The attack method was too subtle, even at their feet, and they didn't notice it.

If it wasn't for Ye Mo this time, there would have been casualties.

"Don't be discouraged. This is different from how you deal with humans. The demons of the abyss are beyond imagination and subvert your previous concepts."

While explaining, Ye Mo grabbed half of the bone worm's body and picked out a piece of white cartilage with a dagger three centimeters below the head.

"And the bone worms are also very powerful. They know how to hide themselves, and even when attacking, they can kill with one blow. This is somewhat similar to thieves, as long as you detect it early or avoid the first blow."

brush!
Suddenly, Ye Mo turned around violently.

His speed is extremely fast, without any superfluous or fancy movements, this is a method that has been honed through years of killing.

"Let me borrow your sword!"

bass!
Ye Mo pulled out Wang Xiaochun's long sword, and pierced into the soil a little far away.

Plop plop!
The soil squirmed for a while, making a metal-like impact sound, and then there was the scream of bone worms.

After the dark green blood poured out, the soil returned to calm.

After the sneak attack just now, Ma Chaohui had already paid great attention to the surrounding soil, but he was still a step too late.

This frustrates him quite a bit.

Ye Mo patted Wang Xiaochun on the shoulder, returned the long sword to him, and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, this kind of bone worm is more difficult for me to deal with."

Wang Xiaochun opened his mouth wide and was speechless.

This is difficult?

Cutting vegetables could be easier than this.

Two bone worms attacked twice, the second time they were on guard, and they didn't notice it at all.

At the moment when they were shocked, Ye Mo suddenly saw something in the mouth of the bone worm when he was cleaning up the cartilage.

"This is?"

"A piece of flesh? It seems that the bone worm just gnawed off some creature."

Although it was only a piece of flesh the size of a thumb, Ye Mo could still see the owner of the flesh with his rich experience.

"I finally know what kind of abyssal demon it is."
