Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Bumblebee ran forward, but soon stopped again, his brows knitted together.

Black, so dark, compared to ordinary visitors, it is not an exaggeration to say that you can't see even your fingers.

Although she lived in the Deep Nest for a while during the short period of time when she was just born, in the final analysis she still lived in the white palace and the hive most of the time. Perhaps it was because she had not been exposed to such darkness for too long. Due to the environment, her night vision ability has not been fully restored. Currently, she can only see the environment less than five steps away from herself.

I felt a slight vibration under my feet, and something rustled in my ears. It was really scary in this environment.

"Sister Wasp, be careful. I have a lantern here. Come and get closer to me."

Mo Rong looked at the bumblebee standing nearby and took out the light fly lantern in a leisurely manner. In this environment, even if the light source of the lantern was not enough to illuminate the ground very far, he could see dozens of steps clearly. The environment inside is still easy.

The dim light of the lantern filled the air from behind. Bumblebee couldn't help but say a few words, and saw Mo Rong following him again. He was so angry that he looked at the stone platform not far away and was about to step up and run.

"Who cares about your lantern?"

The bumblebee's petite body had jumped up, and the dark environment in the deep nest also aroused Mo Rong's discomfort, and at the same time, it also made him realize where he was.

"Hey! It's dangerous! Come back!"

Mo Rong quickly activated his moth-wing cloak and stared at the stone platform above. The shock became more and more intense. If he guessed correctly, Bumblebee would encounter a tyrannical man in the deep nest within three seconds of boarding the stone platform. monster.

Gapid!

Sure enough, just after Bumblebee climbed onto the stone platform, two jaws that were opening and closing suddenly appeared in the darkness not far away, and then Gapid's long body appeared in front of her, dancing. With numerous appendages crashing towards her.

Upon seeing this, Bumblebee immediately took out the bone needle from his back and swung it at Gapid with all his strength, the stagnation between his brows dissipated a lot.

If I can't hit that annoying guy, I can't hit you anymore?

The collision between the bone needle and Garpid's shell only resulted in Bumblebee's arm being numb from the shock. Garpid did not react at all and continued to hit her at a high speed.

"How can this be?!"

Bumblebee's eyes widened a lot. He had used all his strength to hit him just now. Even if Loyle resisted with his physical body, he still had to take a breath. How could the monster in front of him be okay?

The brief loss of consciousness resulted in Bumblebee being unable to react any longer. There was only one way to retreat in the cramped surroundings, but now it was too late to turn around and retreat.

"Why are you so tough?!"

Mo Rong jumped up and grabbed Bumblebee's arm, and pulled it back violently. Bumblebee immediately lost balance and fell backwards. At this time, she was no more than a punch away from Gapid.

The Moth Wing Cloak activated again. Fortunately, the speed at this moment was much faster than that of Gapid, otherwise Bumblebee would definitely take a hit.

"You are a tiger girl! Why didn't you run away in that situation just now? Aren't you afraid of death?!"

"If you had an accident here, how would you go to see your mother? Do you want me to carry your body?!"

Mo Rong changed his relaxed expression before and sternly reprimanded the little girl in front of him. The words were not pleasant. Bumblebee frowned and wanted to refute, but this time she was in the wrong, and thanks to Mo Rong's help, otherwise she would have been injured. There is no escape.

After hesitating for a long time, Bumblebee saw that Mo Rong was still glaring at him, his eyes evasive, and he muttered stubbornly:

"And...it's not because you're always annoying me, and the king's uncle asked you to come...just to protect me..."

After hearing this, Mo Rong didn't hold back and laughed angrily.

"Now you know I'm here to protect you? Don't you still dislike me?"

Bumblebee lowered his head and muttered after a moment:

"Yeah...sorry."

Mo Rong didn't intend to vent his anger on a child, but his harshness just now was indeed not half fake. There are hidden dangers everywhere in the deep nest. If he doesn't give him a lesson, Bumblebee may still encounter the same situation in the future, and then he won't be able to He knew if he could still save her.

"Okay, okay, just be more careful next time. You won't dislike me from now on, right?"

"Ah."

"Aren't you going to act alone?"

"Ah."

"Just listen to me."

"Ah."

"Then I'll call you Sister Wasp."

"Uh-huh?"

Bumblebee kept nodding, and it took him a while to react after finishing the last sentence of his promise. He raised his head and saw Mo Rong's familiar playful eyes again.

"No! You have to call me Bumblebee!"

From an outsider's perspective, Murong and Bumblebee were about the same height, and even Bumblebee was a bit taller, so she naturally didn't want to let Murong call her sister, because that way she always felt that Murong was taking advantage of her.

"Huh? Did you just say that you listen to me?"

"You...then I also..."

"Okay, okay, let's go quickly. You have a big brother to protect you for no reason. It's too late for me to be happy."

"Follow me, Sister Wasp!"

Murong didn't give Bumblebee another chance to speak. He watched Gapid's last limb pass above him, and his legs suddenly used force to jump upward.

Bumblebee thought for a while, it was just the journey home anyway, and the endurance was over, so he stopped saying anything and followed Mo Rong's pace, and both of them disappeared into the dust passed by Gapid. .

......

The sentry outside the tent wandered alone for a long time, but no other sentry came out of the tent. At that moment, many bad thoughts came to his mind.

"This tent doesn't look very big. Those guys haven't come out for so long. Could it be that something happened to them?"

The sentry walked to the door of the giant tent and stretched his neck to look inside, but unfortunately, he found nothing but darkness.

After waiting for a while, the sentry's inner uneasiness became more intense. He paused, looked back at the giant tent, and immediately started running.

"It's over. You haven't come out for so long. It's likely that something has happened. We need to report it to the Lord Watcher immediately."

Just after the sentry took a few steps, a burst of white light suddenly appeared where he was pacing just now, and he shouted softly:

"stop."

The words reached the ears of the sentry. He glanced back habitually, and then immediately knelt down on his legs.

"See your Majesty!"

The sentry's eyes looked at the stones close at hand, and his heart was filled with confusion.

Why is the king here?

"What happened here?"

The sentry raised his head, looked at King Bai not far away, and told the truth about what happened not long ago. Not long after the words fell, the sentry saw King Bai step into the giant tent and disappear.

The sentry didn't stop for long and hurriedly ran away.

Although he didn't know what was about to happen, the arrival of King Bai made him very clear that what happened next was not something that his identity should be involved in.

Da da da......

The footsteps of the White King echoed in the corridor of the Green Theater Company. His eyes were staring straight into the darkness ahead. He passed over Bloom who was playing the accordion, not even giving him a bit of peripheral vision.

And right at the end of the corridor, next to the clean stage, there were a few more figures wearing masks in the shadow of the auditorium.

In the center of the stage, a red mist suddenly appeared, and Green's figure appeared in it again, with scarlet eyes flowing in his eyes as he looked at the dark corridor with concentration.

"The Greene Troupe has welcomed a great guest."
