Wizard: I can refine everything
Chapter 139 Cat and Mouse
In the crypt, Li, who was studying insect egg specimens, was shocked when he looked at the runes that lit up on the table.
The warning magic circle he set up was triggered.
Richard frowned slightly and said: "Ulises, did you encounter any difficult insects when you went out to have fun?"
"Gah, no, those bugs are still so stupid, I just flew away twice and got rid of them." Ulises said blankly.
Buzz!
Another rune lit up on the table.
This shows that another warning magic circle has been triggered.
Upon seeing this, Richard packed the things in the crypt into the magic bag without hesitation, and prepared to move and leave the crypt.
The crypts he chose were all remote crypts that had been abandoned by black crystal insects, and almost no insects would come there on weekdays.
Now that the magic circle he set up has been triggered, it means that this place has become unsafe.
Seeing Richard clean up the crypt quickly, Ulises suddenly realized: "Gah, another insect triggered the alarm, right?"
Richard nodded, picked up the staff and left the crypt to leave through the tunnel on the other side.
A hiding place cannot have only one passage.
"Gah, I said you are just too nervous. The passages in this crypt are so complicated. It is normal for bugs to get lost occasionally. There is no need to change places every time the alarm is triggered." Ulises fell on Richard's shoulder and whispered shouted, "Besides, even if they find us by mistake, we can just take him away, why bother moving."
Every time it changes its home, it has to wander around the insect nest with Richard for a long time before it can find a suitable place to hide.
For the sake of safety, Ulises had to explore the tunnel structures near the hiding place bit by bit, which was a troublesome job.
Hearing Ulises's shouting, Richard calmly replied:
"We are now inside the insect nest, and there is no room for sloppiness. If we are bitten by those insects, we will be in big trouble."
"Gah, so what if I bite you. Didn't we find a good place to escape pursuit two years ago? That place is not too far from here."
Richard shook his head: "I don't want to go to that damn place unless I have to."
…
Two minutes later, an alarm bug cautiously came to the crypt. After seeing the remaining traces of the wizard's life in the crypt, it immediately chirped.
Soon, a group of insects came to the crypt, led by Insect Heart.
"Sir, you are really good at predicting things. That wizard monster has indeed been in this place."
Zhong Yinhart didn't pay attention to the flattery of other insects, and the insect quietly walked into the crypt.
From this crypt, he could see that the wizard monster had many similar qualities to him - caution, calmness, and restraint.
There is no decoration in this crypt, just a platform and a stool.
Chong Yinhat gently stroked the platform with his upper limbs, and soon felt a mark.
According to the Golden Armored Warrior Insects, this mark is called a rune, which is similar to their writing. But the wizard's runes have magical abilities similar to those of the sacrificial insects. In the insect nest behind, many sacrificial insects are already trying to learn to decipher this kind of writing.
On this mark, Chong Yinhart could feel a subtle energy residue, which meant that the mark had just been triggered and the wizard monster had just left not long ago.
"Chasing, that wizard monster is not far away from us! You two separate, take several tunnels around, and try to narrow the area where this wizard monster can escape as much as possible."
…
"Gah, boy, we seem to be stuck by bugs."
In the tunnel, Ulises flew from behind the tunnel and landed on Richard's shoulder.
Richard frowned, he was so careful, how could he still get caught?
"What did you find?"
"Gah, there are basically traces of insects in the tunnels around here. It doesn't look like normal deployment."
"Are you sure?"
"Gah, you still don't believe my judgment?"
Richard rubbed his eyebrows: "Then this will be more troublesome."
If this large-scale search was carried out by the Insect Hive against all wizards, then he would be doing better now. But he was afraid that this search was directed at him.
He, a first-level wizard, cannot bear the risk of being targeted by the insect nest.
"Forget it, prepare yourself and go to that place first."
In the tunnel one kilometer away from Richard in a straight line, Wormheart was taking the warrior bugs to analyze the surrounding tunnel terrain.
The complex mechanism of the insect hive is difficult for wizards, but it is also difficult for insects.
Even if a bug has physiological advantages, it will also take several years to become familiar with the tunnel structure near its own settlement. For communication between settlements, a special kind of bug called a map bug is needed.
"You said that this wizard monster is very familiar with the tunnels, maybe even more familiar than you?" Insect Heart said incredulously.
A native black crystal insect actually said that a foreign monster was more familiar with the tunnels of the insect nest than he was.
This is really not a funny joke.
"Sir, these wizard monsters have a kind of prop. That kind of prop can easily detect the surrounding tunnel structure and then display it." The warrior insect defended, "That kind of prop seems to be called a developing crystal ball. These wizard monsters that sneak in One per person.
If they are willing to take the time to explore the tunnels of the insect nest, it is not impossible that he is more familiar with the tunnels than me. "
The Samurai Bug's defense was well-founded, but in this defense, Buginhart heard an unusual hint.
While the warrior worm was defending himself, he felt powerless, which was not a good sign.
"Warrior, raise your head." Insect Hart ordered.
The warrior worm did as he was told.
Insect Hart looked at him, and a glimmer of light flashed across the black crystal between his eyebrows.
"Tell me, warrior. Do you have any fear in your heart?"
"My lord, I..." The warrior worm wanted to answer no, but the words turned into yes when they reached his lips.
"My lord, we are too far away from these wizard monsters."
"This is not an excuse!" Insect Hart's tentacles slapped the warrior worm fiercely, "You should be thankful that I have seen through your thoughts! If it were any other priest, you would immediately become a shell for the Mother Goddess's cannon!"
The warrior worm was shocked, and he lowered his head and said nothing.
"Warriors, look at me." Insect Hart flapped his wings and flew into the air, with a holy light flashing on his body.
"I know how many of you are already timid, but I want to tell you that we will never fail!
We have fought wars with dragons in the sky and crypt spiders underground. We have failed countless times in the war, but in the end, we have won!
No matter how terrible those wizard monsters are, our black crystal insect race will eventually win this war under the leadership of the mother insect god!"
Zhong Yinhart's words were loud and clear, and with the holy light on its body, it looked like the mother insect god had descended.
The warrior insects knelt on the ground one after another, with tears of regret in their eyes.
The great black crystal insects had defeated so many enemies in the past, which was their proud history. With such a proud history, how could they be timid in their hearts?
They will definitely win.
Falling from the sky, Chong Yinhart looked at the reaction of the insects with satisfaction.
Defeatism must not exist in the army, even if there is only a little sign.
"Now, go and catch that wandering wizard monster and sacrifice it to the mother insect god!"
...
"Catch that wizard monster!"
The warrior insect in black armor made a sharp explosion. Behind him, a group of warrior insects were flapping their wings and running rapidly along the tunnel.
Looking at this scene, Richard's face remained unchanged, and he swung a black fireball with his staff.
Boom!
The black flames filled half of the tunnel. A layer of magic barrier appeared in front of Richard to block the flames, but the insects were in a miserable state. The stench of burnt flesh and shells quickly filled the air.
But Richard had no time to appreciate the miserable state of the insects. He glanced at the crystal ball in his hand and continued to fly close to the ground along the tunnel.
Richard's current situation is not very optimistic. In the tunnel system near him, hundreds of insects are searching for him, including rare insects such as spider knights and sacrificial insects.
Especially the sacrificial worms, these worms can determine Richard's approximate location based on the vague answers given by the world will, completely cutting off Richard's idea of hiding in the shadows.
Fortunately, there are not many sacrificial worms in the team chasing him, and Richard can still deal with the worms by relying on the complex tunnel system.
In front, a black shadow rushed out and stopped accurately beside Richard.
"Gah, there are worms in front, and the worms took a shortcut and went in front of us. We can't take this road."
Ulysses' voice was very urgent, without any leisurely voice in the past, which made Richard's heart sink.
"Are we surrounded?"
Richard looked at the crystal ball in his hand, which recorded the three-dimensional map of the worm nest tunnels he had recorded over the years. From the map, he can't take many roads now, and most of them are dead ends.
A huge encirclement has trapped him firmly in it.
"Gah, what should we do, kill it hard? Or..." Ulysses asked
Richard looked at the huge blank space on the edge of the map and sighed slightly.
He wanted to fight his way out, but he had to have the ability to do so.
He was now in the insect nest, the home of the black crystal insect. If he, a one-ring wizard, could dominate the world, the wizard would have flattened him long ago.
"It seems that we can only go to that place."
The insects chirped in the tunnel. Richard put away the crystal ball and turned to fly towards the tunnel on the left side of the fork.
A few dozen seconds later, Chong Yinhart led the insects to the entrance of the tunnel where Richard turned. There were three forks in front of him, and there was no trace of the movement of wizards and monsters on each fork.
In theory, the troops should be divided into three groups at this time.
But Chong Yinhart did not divide the troops. Instead, he pulled a mushroom from the ground and threw it on the ground. The mushroom rolled on the ground for a few times and finally pointed to the tunnel where Richard was moving.
"Go to this tunnel." Chong Yinhart gave an order.
"This tunnel?" The warrior worm on the side hesitated, "Sir, if the wizard monster is familiar with the tunnel, then he shouldn't take this tunnel."
"Huh? Why?" The worm Yinhart asked in confusion.
"Sir, although there are several forks in the middle of this tunnel, those forks are dead, and if you don't take the forks, then this tunnel will only lead to one place."
"Where?"
The warrior worm trembled twice, as if he thought of something terrifying.
"Sir, this road leads directly to... the source sea abyss."
