Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 256: Traps

Seeing the bumblebee constantly kicking and jumping on the wall like a leaping elf, Mo Rong did not dare to be careless and began to move around.

He was almost attacked because of the silk thread just now, so this time he paid special attention to the back of the Bumblebee.

As he expected, the crystal threads reflected light under the glow, sometimes disappearing and sometimes appearing. If one did not observe them intentionally, it would be almost impossible to detect them all in the battle.

Seeing Bumblebee kicking up after touching the wall again, Mo Rong felt uneasy and immediately intercepted her in the direction she wanted to move.

"Another new move?"

Seeing Mo Rong leaping high in front of her, Bumblebee did not stop. She waved her hand and chopped out the "bone needle", while at the same time controlling her body to intersect with the bone nails that were attacking her.

The two collided, but there was no crisp sound that should have been made between bone nails.

Mo Rong only felt as if he was chopping on a ball of cotton. The feedback from his hand was extremely weak. He looked carefully and his expression changed slightly.

Because the "bone needle" in Bumblebee's hand actually broke into a ball at the moment of collision and entangled with his own bone nails.

It turned out to be a fake bone needle made of silk thread!

A familiar pulling force came again, and Mo Rong looked helpless.

It’s bad, I’ve been fooled again.

Since it was only the bone nail that was entangled this time, he did not choose to use Black Dash to escape immediately. Instead, he grabbed it and half-hung it in the air to see what tricks Bumblebee would come up with next.

Seeing this, Bumblebee naturally would not miss this excellent opportunity. He fiddled with his hands and pulled back suddenly. Some of the silk threads that were spread across the field suddenly gathered towards Mo Rong in all directions.

It wasn't over yet, as a silk bone needle flew out of his hand again and attacked at a high speed.

Seeing the two attacks coming at the same time, Mo Rong seized the opportunity and used Black Charge again to escape.

It was at this moment that Bumblebee's palm moved again.

"Sure enough, there was a second time. Fortunately, I was careful."

The nail force was released instantly, and the vertical whirlwind chopped like a circular saw, cutting off all the remaining silk threads in an instant.

Hearing the sound of breaking air beside his ears and looking at the few cold rays flying towards him, Mo Rong didn't think much and immediately took out the shining tortoise shell and placed it in front of himself.

The trick of hiding leaves in the forest?

As long as you are cautious, it will not work.

Bumblebee looked at the beautiful shield in the distance, and the corners of his mouth under the mask finally curled up.

Hooked.

Mo Rong's attention was completely on the flying bone needles at this moment, and she didn't notice that Bumblebee still had two silk threads. She took advantage of the moment when the shield blocked her vision and immediately danced with her palms, pulling and tugging, as if something was being attracted.

"Be good at playing to your strengths, rather than just trying to develop all-round. Playing to your strengths and avoiding your weaknesses is also one of the qualities of a hunter."

"Your perception is strong, which can make up for your lack of strength. Make good use of it."

Soft slapping sounds continued to ring out. Feeling the soft touch of the shield, Mo Rong frowned slightly.

Are they all fake bone needles?

He raised his head and focused his eyes on Bumblebee's back and palms, both of which were empty.

Where are the real bone needles?

He remembered that the bone needle was still in her hand when they first met. Could it be that it was hidden while he was dodging just now?

If so, where is it hidden?

As his eyes moved, Mo Rong finally discovered that Bumblebee's palm was still shaking slightly, and his alertness was immediately raised to the highest level.

In a battle where their lives are at stake, no enemy will make meaningless moves.

He knew this very well, and even though he had no idea what Bumblebee was doing, he was still ready to evacuate.

Bumblebee snorted, a cunning look on his face: "Want to run? It's too late."

"Earth-swimming needle!"

With the last pull of the palm, the bone needle flew out from the ground under Mo Rong's feet in a flash, pierced the latter's chest without making any sound, and was led back to Bumblebee's hand by the silk thread.

"Accepted."

Bumblebee put away the bone needle, a smile almost spreading across his face.

The attack just now went straight to Mo Rong's heart, a real death blow.

Of course, if it were reality she wouldn't be so cruel, but after all, this is a dream.

Humph, he deserved it for bullying me like that before!

Bumblebee grumbled contentedly in his heart, waiting to be called back by the real world.

"It hurts, it hurts, sister Hornet, you are so cruel. It's a waste of my time taking care of you. Now our feelings have faded..."

Mo Rong climbed up from the ground, holding his chest with his hands, pretending to be heartbroken.

"Are you okay?!"

Bumblebee's pupils shrank. She definitely did not miss the target with that attack just now, and she watched the bone needle pierce his body with her own eyes. There was no possibility of escape.

When Mo Rong put down his hand, she realized that not only was there no blood on his body, there was not even a scar, as if the attack just now had not worked.

How can it be? !

How can he be fine after his heart was pierced?!

Mo Rong lowered his head and then raised it again, as if he knew what Bumblebee was thinking: "You did hit it that time, no doubt about it."

It’s just that I didn’t mean it and didn’t expect it, hehe.

"I'm actually very curious, where did you learn all these moves from, or did you figure them out on your own? I remember that when we fought last time, you were still very innocent..."

After hearing this, Bumblebee's face darkened and he became annoyed.

This means she is stupid, right?

"So much nonsense, look at the needle!"

With the previous experience as a lesson, Mo Rong's eyes never left the bone needle in her hand. He no longer gave her the chance to wire the needle and engaged in close combat with Bumblebee.

The sound of weapons colliding was very rhythmic, and unlike Mo Rong's ease, Bumblebee's expression became gradually more solemn during the fight.

She found that no matter how much skill and strength she used, Mo Rong could always change in time, and because of his bone nail skills, she was at a disadvantage.

After a series of blocking, she actually had a lot of scars on her body.

After all, you can’t force it.

Bumblebee sighed slightly, and stopped for a moment, staring intently. Two more limbs appeared under her red skirt, and the toes of the limbs were hooked with two light silk threads, like two skillful hands moving rhythmically.

Darkness.

Mo Rong naturally noticed this scene. He was on high alert and even forgot that the Bumblebee was actually a spider.

The sound of friction between the silk thread and the ground was heard suddenly, and it was shrinking towards Mo Rong like a cage.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and a whirlwind chopped off, cutting the enveloping silk thread in half.

The bumblebee's appendages were still pulling, and Mo Rong's movements had just stopped when another circle of silk thread came up.

There was not enough time to build up his strength, so Mo Rong had to use Black Dash to flash behind the Bumblebee. At the moment when the black particles condensed, the largest and thickest layer of cage was cast towards him.

"I want to see how you can hide this time."

White light condensed in Mo Rong's hands and he spread out his hands.

"If you can't hide, then don't hide."

"Take my hit!"
