My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 172 Hidden Poisonous Insect Tide

Yueshan Ruins is not a popular secret place.

When Zhou and Lu were looking for a suitable place to camp, they didn't encounter any beast masters.

"Every once in a while, there will be a wave of insects here."

Xu Wuhu has obviously done enough strategy.

He made a point of emphasizing this when building the camp.

The insect swarm in the Yueshan ruins is also famous in the circle of beast masters.

It is precisely because of the existence of the insect tide that even beast masters who need the materials in the Yueshan ruins will generally not enter the secret realm during this season.

Every autumn and winter are exactly the times when insect infestations occur most frequently in the Yueshan ruins.

Many people speculate that this is because the resources of the Yueshan Ruins are limited, so many insect-like spirit beasts will use this method to compete for resources in the autumn and winter.

Except for secret realms with special environments such as snowy secret realms, the seasons in most secret realms change along with the main world.

This is also one of the arguments in academic circles that the secret realm is a small world separated by immortals from the main world.

Zhou Lu naturally also considered this issue.

So when he was building the camp, he specifically asked Hanabi to create an insect-proof net using vines and slime.

"This should be no problem." Zhou Lu looked at the arrangement in front of him and nodded.

Night time.

The first wave of insect waves started after Zhou Lu entered the secret realm of Yueshan Ruins.

Dark flying insects came from all directions, like a black wave, sweeping across the entire camp in an instant.

In the air, the sound of flying insect wings vibrating is endless.

Zhou Lu felt his ears buzzing, and his whole brain was being vibrated and hit by the insect's wings.

"Fuck...this is too exaggerated..." Zhou Lu said in shock as he looked at the black bugs accumulating on the firework vine web.

At this point, Hanabi's slime had completely lost its effect.

Countless bugs paved the way with their bodies in an instant.

If Hanabi hadn't reacted quickly enough to weave a circular dome with vines, covering the entire camp, they might have been swamped by this black bug by now.

"It's a poisonous insect."

Xu Wuhu looked at the fish that occasionally flew in and slipped through the net, and said.

Although Hanabi had woven the vine shield as finely as possible, the quick weaving did not have enough time to add the [Lilliputian] skill, which allowed many hidden poisonous insects to get in through the gaps in the vines.

The toxicity of cryptotoxins is not low.

Once bitten by it, the skin at the bite site will ulcerate in a very short time.

Zhou Lu naturally didn't want to put himself in such a dangerous situation.

Hanabi was already in action now.

As an expert at catching insects, it weaved several insect-catching nets and began to capture poisonous insects that broke through the outer vine defenses.

Benben, at this time, has also turned into a mosquito killer.

Because the outside was completely covered by the poisonous insect swarm, the camp became pitch black under the vine dome.

In order to better bring out Benben's "performance", Zhou Lu even gave Benben a special light.

Benben looked at the bugs coming towards him and could no longer complain.

Get used to it.

I'm really used to this kind of thing.

"If this continues, we may run out of oxygen."

Xu Wuhu frowned as he looked at the situation in front of him.

Countless cryptid bugs clog any crack they can find.

The layers of insects were so compact that it was difficult for outside air to enter the camp.

Judging from what Hanabi observed from the branches left outside, this wave of hidden poisonous insects that enveloped the entire Tsukiyama ruins would probably not show any signs of ending for a while.

"It seems that we are very unlucky." Zhou Lu said helplessly, "The scale of this insect wave is much larger than what was seen in the data."

With that said, he called for Hanabi.

At this time, Hanabi had given up on running around catching bugs by herself.

It arranged many branches in the camp, and each branch grew several insect-catching vine nets.

Due to the constant changes in the cells of the vine roots, these insect trapping nets will sway regularly in the air.

In this way, they can stick to all the bugs they encounter along the way.

What Hanabi has to do is to pick the net bag that is covered with insects like a fruit farmer.

Hanabi crushed the corpses of these poisonous insects into small insect cakes.

Then they were thrown into the newly lit bonfire as fuel.

The porous structure of worm cake makes it a very flammable fuel.

Amid the crackling sounds of insects, the smell of burnt protein began to fill the air.

The bonfire burned more and more fiercely.

But in this case, the air crisis will be more serious, right?

Xu Wuhu was just about to ask this question, and then he saw Zhou Lu asking Hua Huo to take out some spores from its volute.

Raise your hand and scatter the spores on the ground.

As if feeling the heat of the campfire, these spores began to grow rapidly.

After a while, black and white mushrooms appeared in front of Xu Wuhu.

"The goddess of the night fungus." Zhou Lu introduced to Xu Wuhu, "A mushroom that absorbs heat and converts carbon dioxide into oxygen and discharges it."

This was also collected from Wu Xiaoqing's laboratory.

However, this is not the result of Wu Xiaoqing's experiment, but a new fungus she found in the wild.

Since the technology of industrial oxygen production has been very perfect, Wu Xiaoqing has not yet thought of their use.

The reason why Hua Huo brought them was simply because these goddess of the night mushrooms were very beautiful.

It wanted to use these mushrooms to decorate its small room.

Unexpectedly, these decorative mushrooms were actually used at this time.

"But they will quickly consume the heat of the bonfire." Zhou Lu said to Xu Wuhu, "We can't let the bonfire go out."

So the two of them also joined the team to add hidden poisonous insect cakes to the bonfire.

Considering the safety of the two beast masters, Hua Huo would leave a leaf in the process of making insect cakes.

This night was very long.

The tide of hidden poisonous insects did not begin to slowly subside until the sunrise of the next day.

Because too many insects were intercepted and accumulated, Hua Huo's vine dome even sank.

Xiao Caocao had to weave a few pillars with vines to strengthen the support.

Poof!

Xu Wuhu used brute force to tear a hole in the dome.

In an instant, countless insect corpses fell down and submerged him completely.

And Hua Huo, who was standing by, had already prepared to clean up, and soon cleared Xu Wuhu out.

Breathing the air again, Xu Wuhu felt that his mind was much clearer.

Although the goddess of the night can produce oxygen.

But the smell produced by the burning of a large number of insects still gives people a suffocating feeling.

Later, the two even ate a few red leaf bracts, so that they were not poisoned by the poisonous gas produced by the burning.

"It seems that this trip may be much more difficult than we thought." Zhou Lu looked at the camp that was messed up by the corpses of hidden poisonous insects and said helplessly.
