Ancient Invasion [End Times]

No.80 Five Days After the Invasion · "Are you demolishing your house?"

Supplementing fresh water as much as possible is the primary guarantee for survival in the wild.

Even if they brought water with them, they took into account the weight they carried, and what they brought was the amount necessary for the minimum intake of the human body. No one would think that there was too much fresh water to drink.

Du Jingshu was still caught in the horror of being close to Malu, and it was inevitable that he would be a little distracted.

While burying her head and following the people in front of her, she touched the back of her neck suspiciously. She always felt as if some insects were crawling over her body, which made her feel sick and crazy.

Suddenly, Du Jingshu was grabbed by Zhang Jiuzhang's shoulder and pulled back violently.

Du Jingshu was taken aback, before he could react, Du Nanrong covered his mouth and nose.

Du Nanrong lowered his voice and told her: "Don't bark."

After he finished speaking, he slowly let go of his hand.

It was only then that Du Jingshu noticed where they had gone.

In front of them was a small pool of water, the color of the water was cloudy, and flies and insects could still be seen floating on the surface of the water.

Apart from the footprints stepped on by Zhang Jiuzhang and his party, there were no traces of living creatures around such a pool.

Du Jingshu's eyes moved up slowly, and then his pupils shrank suddenly——

On the tree trunks in the dense forest, black and red, thick and thick millipedes are entrenched on the dark tree trunks that are not high, motionless, almost perfectly hidden in it.

There are dozens of them.

The group of them seemed to have strayed into Malu's nest.

These Malu are not of the same weight as the ones Du Jingshu encountered earlier.

The Malu lying on the back of Du Jingshu's neck is only as thick as fingers, but the ones in front of him are four or five meters long and about the width of an adult's waist.

They live around the pool, entangled with each other.

Du Jingshu gasped silently, and subconsciously took two steps back.

Ordinary millipedes are harmless, but no one knows whether they can eat people of this size.

Zhang Jiuzhang looked at Du Jingshu and the others, and made a gesture to signal everyone to retreat quietly and leave this place, so as not to disturb these things.

Just when they were about to leave the water pool, a giant millipede suddenly jumped down from the trunk of the tree, and its thin and dense limbs crawled over the dry bark, making a hair-raising "squeaky" sound.

Zhang Jiuzhang said abruptly: "Don't look up. Go forward."

When Du Jingshu heard it, she trembled all over, and it was difficult to control herself not to pay attention to it.

She raised her head stiffly, the giant millipede was hanging upside down directly above them, dozens of red jointed legs were swinging in the air.

As soon as Du Jingshu looked up, she could see Malu's mouthpiece was facing her.

Du Jingshu didn't cry out—in fact, she couldn't even utter a sound, even though there were hundreds of "fuck fuck" frantically popping up in her heart, her lips were tightly closed, and she couldn't pry them open with a shovel.

"Keep going." Zhang Jiuzhang saw that Du Jingshu didn't yell out, let alone startled the curious Malu, and immediately dragged Du Jingshu away.

Du Jingshu remained motionless as if her feet were rooted on the ground, until Zhang Jiuzhang dragged her back to her senses, and walked forward stiffly step by step like a robot.

She could still hear the "squeaky" sound of the giant millipede hovering above her head, as if it was very interested in her.

Zhang Jiuzhang said in a low voice: "The mucus of those millipedes before gave you the smell of millipedes, and it may regard you as the same kind. Don't be afraid, just keep going and get out of their living range."

Du Jingshu heard Zhang Jiuzhang's voice, but her brain seemed to be stuck, she heard every word, but she couldn't understand what Zhang Jiuzhang was saying, her mind went blank.

I don't know how long this state lasted until the giant millipede above Du Jingshu's head finally lost her curiosity.

It suddenly raised its body and swam directly from the tree trunk tens of centimeters above Du Jingshu's head to the other side.

This was the first time they got so close to it. Standing under the belly of the giant millipede, they could clearly see that its joints and feet were as sharp as steel blades, leaving terrible marks on the thick trunk. .

Just when the giant millipede was about to swim away, its tail suddenly drooped down, and its slender feet almost swept across Du Jingshu's shoulders. If it was scraped by such knotted feet, it would be like being sucked into dozens of blades.

Du Nanrong's pupils shrank slightly, he pushed down Du Jingshu, and at the same time swung the fire ax in his hand, and slammed across it.

The sudden burst of strength and speed cut off more than a dozen joints in one go.

The giant millipede neighed.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiuzhang yelled, "Run!"

Lin Qian and Xu Ying gasped, and saw the millipede tumbling down from the branch overhead in pain, its huge body curled up into a ball, rolling crazily on the woodland full of dead leaves.

The giant millipedes that had been staying comfortably around the water pool were awakened by the huge movement here.

They jumped down from the branches and leaves of the canopy in all directions, and they didn't know whether to flee or attack, and rushed straight in the direction of Zhang Jiuzhang and the others.

Seeing this, Duan Yi's animal pupils shrank slightly, and the animal's claws slammed on the giant millipede whose joints had been cut off by Du Nanrong, and the sharp claws instantly cut the millipede into two pieces.

Lin Qian and the others had already ran a hundred meters away. When they turned their heads, they saw a snow-white ancient creature stepping on a giant millipede and letting out a terrifying roar.

Dozens of giant millipedes leaped down from the forest, curled up their thick and long bodies, and instinctively put on a defense, like a solid iron ball, staying in place one by one, pretending to be dead.

Lin Qian opened his mouth wide, and those giant "Malu balls" pressed against the dead leaves looked like the eggs of some huge bird at first glance.

"Okay, okay, they won't chase anymore." Lin Qian gasped and said, "Stop and catch your breath."

The physical exertion of running a [-]-meter cross-country in a dense rainforest is completely different from that in a peaceful place.

Lin Qian gasped for a few breaths on his knees, looked at Du Nanrong, gave a thumbs up, and finally had the strength to joke, "Du Gong is so ruthless, he cut Ren Malu into a cripple."

Du Nanrong panted heavily with a pale face. Hearing Lin Qian's words, he didn't have the strength to answer the other party's teasing.

His fire ax was still embedded under the belly of that millet and hadn't been pulled out. The ghost knows where the strange power and reaction speed erupted from at that time.

Zhang Jiuzhang looked at Du Nanrong with an uneasy face: "What do you think about taking the initiative to attack? Can't you understand the order?"

"If you are under its feet, I will absolutely obey the order and stay still." Du Nanrong choked with a cold face.

Du Nanrong was so angry that Zhang Jiuzhang stepped forward, sticking to Du Nanrong and holding the opponent's collar: "Just because of your move, we all fell into such a crisis! No one was injured this time, it doesn't mean it will be the same next time." ! Before you act, don't you think about it?"

Du Nanrong glared at him with a sullen face: "How good are you? Didn't you bring us to this kind of place? Did you check the surroundings and see nothing unusual? You are amazing for such a big Malu nest, Directly took us to break into other people's lair!"

"you!"

Seeing this, Lin Qian hurriedly separated them, smoothed things over and said, "Okay, okay, Du Gong's reaction is instinctive, and he's not professionally trained, so he'll know next time! You two don't quarrel like elementary school students! What time is it!"

Zhang Jiuzhang pushed Du Nanrong, too lazy to say anything to the people in front of him, he tilted his head and spat hard.

Du Nanrong snorted coldly, and said to Lin Qian, "I don't care about him."

"Bah." Zhang Jiuzhang walked to the other side, followed by a cold snort in response.

Lin Qian twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling like a kindergarten aunt, he patted Du Nanrong and asked Du Nanrong to check on Du Jingshu's situation.

Du Nanrong walked to his daughter.

Xu Ying was accompanying Du Jingshu, when she saw Du Nanrong approaching, she raised her eyes to look at him, and said softly: "Okay, she's fine."

Du Nanrong nodded silently, and saw several new bloodstains on Xu Ying's arms. The wounds were thin and long, obviously they were scratched by the grass blades on both sides when he was running all the way just now.

Looking at Lin Qian again, Lin Qian was not much better, his face was painted, and everyone was in a panic.

Zhang Jiuzhang pursed his lips, calmed down slowly, and apologized in a muffled voice.

Xu Ying patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "It's okay, no one would have expected this, at least the little girl wasn't hurt."

"By the way, where's Team Duan?" Xu Ying remembered, she frowned and looked at Malu's "old nest".

The snow-white and beautiful ancient creature was rummaging through the body of the millipede that had been caught in two, trying to find a stone core.

——After all, they have mutated into such a big one, so there must be a stone core, right?

Cheng Sheng is still unconscious. Duan Yi guessed that the energy of the stone core is not enough. Perhaps, absorbing another one will wake him up.

Duan Yi looked for it, and the huge animal claws tossed and turned in the corpse of the giant millet.

"Seriously, you should put your paws in the puddles and take a shower."

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the back of the ancient creature, with a teasing smile in the voice: "Don't touch me until it's cleaned."

The ancient creature froze for a moment, then turned its head to look behind him, and saw Cheng Sheng lazily lying on his back, looking over with smiling eyes, and he didn't know when he woke up.

Cheng Sheng moved slowly to the ancient creature's neck, plucked two handfuls of soft long hair, and lay down on the ancient creature's head.

He was barefoot. After falling into the water earlier, Duan Yi took off Cheng Sheng's top and bottom to avoid the cold. Later, in the middle of the night, Cheng Sheng's shoes fell under the pile of stones, and no one remembered it.

——After all, there is not much difference between the doctor's shoes and the ones he doesn't have, and there is no sense of existence.

At this moment, Cheng Sheng was barefoot, trapped in the plush of ancient creatures, the soft and slightly itchy soles of his feet made Cheng Sheng narrow his eyes slightly.

He moved his toes tentatively and poked into the furry.

The doctor blinked, very curious.

He moved his toes again, like a curious toddler learning to use his feet for the first time.

Duan Yi didn't feel anything, the animal-shaped long hair was thick and dense, no matter how much Cheng Sheng tossed about, it was hard to feel anything.

Cheng Sheng tossed and tested a few more times, then leaned back on the ancient creature's head, and asked, "How did you become like this? Is it because of me?"

The ancient creature raised its head slightly, rubbed against Cheng, and let out a very light grunt in its throat.

"I'm fine." Cheng Sheng said, he rubbed the giant beast's two triangular plush ears, and the soft and fine short fluff was grasped in the palm of his hand, which felt very good.

The doctor rubbed it twice more lovingly, and then asked Duan Yi to wash his paws.

He looked at the circle of "eggs" around him, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is that the ancient Malu? Are you demolishing the house?"
