Chapter 029 Good News and Bad News

Fortunately, Qiu Fei reacted quickly and immediately grabbed Datou's hands that were about to tear the wound on Yao Leng's arm, pulled Datou up and threw him to the side.

After being thrown to the ground, Datou jumped up, even faster than when he was not injured. His eyes were red and he continued to rush towards Yao Leng.

Caihe next to him grabbed his legs and tripped him.

A piece of flesh had been bitten off from Yao Leng's neck by Datou, and Qiu Fei sprinkled medicinal powder on the bleeding wound on Yao Leng's neck.

Fortunately, Yao Leng had ice-related abilities. After Qiu Fei sprinkled the powder, he immediately used his abilities to freeze the wound.

"Wait." Jiang He rushed to Caihe who was fighting with Datou before Brown Bear, grabbed Datou's shoulder with one hand and slapped Datou in the face with the other.

Although Jiang He's hands looked thin and small, they were no less powerful than a brown bear's. With one slap from her, one side of Big Head's cheek instantly swelled up.

After the first slap, Jiang He slapped him again.

"It hurts, it hurts." Big Head yelled incoherently, "Stop, stop, stop hitting me."

Jiang He withdrew the third slap that was about to land, confirmed that Datou was fine, and then went to check on Yao Leng's injuries.

"The emotions of male iron-eating ants can infect us." Jiang He said to everyone, "Big Head had been sniffing the male iron-eating ants constantly before, and he was infected by the male iron-eating ants' violent emotions, which is why he did this."

Datou had given all the medicine he had to Yao Leng. It was one thing for a teammate to die in battle, but it was another thing to be killed by a companion. At least this kind of thing was not allowed to happen in the Brown Bear team.

Datou apologized to Yao Leng with great guilt: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Yao Leng had already swallowed a level one crystal core. He and Big Head had a pretty good relationship, but after being nearly killed by Big Head's bite, Yao Leng didn't even want to look at the guy. "Qiu Fei is on the left and I'm on the right. Why don't you bite Qiu Fei? Do you really want to bite me?"

There are people on both sides, but she chose to bite him. Who would believe it if she didn't have any grievances against him?

"No." Datou hurriedly shook his head and explained, "You smelled of blood. I wasn't thinking straight at the time. I couldn't help smelling the blood."

There was almost no smell of blood on Yao Leng's body. When his arm was torn off by the nail-eating green python, he immediately used ice to control the wound.

Most of the mutants in the mines had sharp noses and were extremely sensitive to the smell of alien blood. Yao Leng had already cleaned up the blood on his body before leaving the nail-eating green python's lair, fearing a situation like the one just now would occur.

But Big Head's nose is even sharper than the Aberration's.

Yao Leng's already pale face turned even paler. It was not a good thing to have the smell of blood on his body.

He dug a hand into his pocket and pulled out a spray bottle, spraying it all over himself. The smell was quite pungent, a must-have for many aliens when they went into the mines, just to mask their odor.

Jiang He turned to the brown bear and said, "The male iron-eating ants' violent mood is like a moving storm, and it will sooner or later spread here."

Brown Bear looked worried. "Does that mean each of us will win the bid?"

Datou touched his swollen face with lingering fear, "Fortunately, a slap in the face can wake someone up."

It hurts a bit, but it's better than losing your mind.

He didn't dare to sniff the male iron-eating ants' current condition anymore, and asked Jiang He curiously, "When will those male iron-eating ants advance to the next level?"

These things almost caused him to kill his teammates. When these guys advance, he will kill them all and take away all the crystal cores!

Jiang He: "It will take some time."

The oxygen in the mine was thin, and because of the sudden drop in temperature, everyone was shivering from the cold and felt a little sleepy.

Only Brown Bear and Yao Leng are in better condition. One of them has ice-related abilities, and the other has the brown bear gene, which is extremely cold-resistant in the animal family. Both of them are quite cold-resistant.

So next, the two of them would whip those who were dozing off from time to time.

Yao Leng took revenge on his personal grudge and used ice spikes to hit Big Head viciously.

Datou's face was covered with bruises after being beaten by him, and his already swollen face became even more swollen and unbearable to look at.

After being woken up again, he rubbed his face and turned to ask Jiang He, "Sister, I noticed that every time you are about to take a nap, your eyes will immediately become clear and not sleepy at all. How do you keep doing that?"

He also wanted to learn it so that he wouldn't be beaten by Yao Leng all the time.

Jiang He: "Thinking of Yao Leng's bloody neck from your bite, and your now bruised face, I can stay awake."

After all, no one wants to be punched in the face while sleeping, nor does anyone want to have half of their neck bitten off by their teammates while sleeping.

Datou felt Yao Leng’s resentful gaze, he shrank his head and didn’t dare to look back:... Just pretend I didn’t ask anything!

Jiang He then asked him, "Does the mine often collapse? Will someone come to dig through Mine No. 1 tomorrow?"

"Mine floors often collapse, but there has never been a mine collapse before." Big Head turned his head to confirm with Brown Bear, "Brother Bear, have you ever heard of a mine collapse?"

Brown Bear explained in more detail: "The tunnels and caves at the bottom of the mine were formed by hand-diggers and are prone to collapse. But the mine shafts are different. They are excavated by a machine called the Drilling Demon in the training camp after surveying the terrain. There have been no mine shaft collapse accidents in the history of A62."

Seeing that Jiang He was listening attentively, he continued, "The soil around the collapse has become loose, and we won't dig a new mine at the original location."

This is also why he had to go deep into the mine and climb out of Mine No. 2.

Mine No. 1 will never be opened again, and staying here is a dead end.

Big Head was afraid of falling asleep, so he chatted enthusiastically. He took over the conversation and asked Brown Bear, "I heard a terrible rumbling sound in the mine earlier. Most of the mines inside must have collapsed."

"Probably," said Brown Bear, "but it won't collapse completely."

Caihe, who rarely spoke, said, "It may not be caused by the sinkhole. It may be a deformed object."

Everyone's eyes were on him.

Caihe said uncertainly, "I'm just guessing."

Everyone was quite sleepy, and talking made things feel better. Even Qiu Fei joined in, "Where did you guys say that level six nail-eating green python went to?"

The small hole was simply too big for the creature to fit into. Even if it could shrink its bones and get in, it would still leave traces. With so many wounds on its body, there was no trace of blood in the small hole, and not even any smell of it.

This is so weird.

Yao Leng looked at Cai He, "Does that nail-eating green python have any special abilities?"

Caihe shook his head. "The most it can do is shrink. It definitely doesn't have the ability to become invisible. But it's so big, and the cave entrance is only as thick as our arms. Even if it could shrink, it wouldn't be able to fit into that small hole."

"It's fat meat right in my mouth." Big Head said sadly, "If I can dig out the crystal core of this nail-eating green python, I will be able to walk with my head held high in the training camp."

I've boasted enough in this life.

Everyone had a look of grief on their faces, as if they had lost a loved one. Yao Leng still looked at the colorful crane and asked, "Doesn't it have the ability to burrow into the ground?"

At that time, everyone checked the nail-eating green python's nest over and over again. Except for that small hole, there was no other place for the nail-eating green python to hide, unless it took off on the spot and left from where they fell.

But even though the cave was dusty and their vision was obstructed, they could still see clearly the huge nail-eating green python taking off.

"No." Caihe said, "It's not a green python that eats nails and can burrow into the ground."

Qiu Fei, "Is there a possibility that it turned into a human, became one of us?"

"Shit." Big Head slapped his thigh. "Your possibility is very high. It can only disappear without our knowledge and we can't find it if it's mixed in with us."

But now the question is, who has it become?

Big Head's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and finally landed on Jiang He.

Yao Leng asked Jiang He, "0112, how did you get to the Nail-Eating Green Python Cavern?"

Jiang He, "I don't know. Everyone who was with me was killed by it. I was in a coma, and when I woke up, I was in the cave of the nail-eating green python."

Fortunately, Yao Leng did not ask the nail-eating green python why it wanted to capture her and bring her back to the cave.

Brown Bear: "If it really wanted to disguise itself as a human, it would probably disguise itself as someone it had killed. After all, pretending to be a living person is easy to be exposed, so pretending to be a dead person is much easier."

Caihe said, "It can't turn into a human yet."

A level six nail-eating green python is certainly powerful, but it is far from reaching the level of becoming a human, Caihe said this with certainty.

Suddenly, Big Head stood up and looked deep into the cave, "Iron-eating ants, iron-eating ants..."

His face turned pale with horror, and he stumbled for a long time before finally uttering a complete sentence, "There's only one iron-eating ant left, only the scent of one. There were so many iron-eating ants, tens of thousands densely packed together, how come there's only one left now?"

Brown Bear: "Aberrant creatures will devour their own kind. The male Iron-Eating Ant probably advanced by devouring its own kind. Can you smell what level it is?"

"Level five." Jiang He said calmly, "Peak level five."

Several people gasped. Big Head especially said, "Shit! I was ready to pick up a bag of Level 2 Iron-Eating Ant cores to take back, but this thing turned out to be Level 5."

Although the fifth-level male iron-eating ant is quite rare, it is very difficult to capture the fifth-level male iron-eating ant given everyone's current comprehensive strength.

"It's locked onto us." Big Head said with a sad face, "What should we do? Should we run?"

There is nowhere to run to, after all, there is no way to retreat.

Brown Bear, "Stand up, check your equipment and prepare for battle. The strength of aberrations is at its most unstable when they first advance. We should strike first."

"Yao Leng, use your Ice Spike ranged attack. I'll go see its strength first. Big Head, use your scent to confuse it. Qiu Fei, use your Aerial Fist and find the right moment to assist."

Caihe said, "I'm agile, I'll go first."

Jiang He, "I'll take the lead. Brother Xiong is too big to be able to perform well in the mine."

Her words were not a discussion but a notification, and as she spoke she had already taken a step forward and was walking towards the mine tunnel ahead.

Brown Bear: ...A woman actually wants to protect me!

Everyone's eyes fell on him: Wow! Your woman looks quite powerful.

The others had no objection. The team did not accept useless people. In their eyes, Jiang He was just an appendage of Brother Xiong and they did not take her seriously.

Even now, they didn't think Jiang He could be as strong as Xiong Ge or Cai He in the vanguard. They thought this woman was too arrogant and extremely reckless and willful. Fortunately, it didn't matter. She wasn't their woman, so it didn't matter to them if she suffered a little loss.

Brown Bear followed closely behind Jiang He. Like everyone else, he was extremely worried about Jiang He taking the lead and was ready to go up himself at any time.

The mine gradually became spacious. Although the brown bear still couldn't lift his head, other people no longer had to bend down, and it could accommodate two people walking side by side.

The location of the male mutant should be the most spacious place in the mine, which is a small mine.

Previously, the dense swarms of iron-eating ants filled this place, so Datou didn't realize that this was a mine with excellent air circulation, and there was a faint trace of Jun ore on the stone walls of the mine.

No wonder this place was dug so big. If there was Jun in the soil, waves of prisoners in the training camp would come to dig the walls and mine.

The previous tunnel was narrow and low because there was no fence around it.

As soon as they entered the small mine where the iron-eating ants lived, everyone shivered with cold, and frost formed on their eyebrows and eyes.

The moment their vision cleared, they also saw the male iron-eating ants in the mine.

There were no remains of any other male iron-eating ants on the ground. The only remaining one lay in the center of the mine, a pitch-black mass like a small hill. Its eyes were closed as if it was sleeping, and there were many bulges wriggling on its exposed belly. There was only a thin layer of belly left, and it seemed that there were many iron-eating ants crawling inside. The wriggling bulges of all sizes rose and fell in a dazzling manner.

Unlike the male iron-eating ants that are about the size of caterpillars in our impression, the male iron-eating ants in front of us are comparable to a two-meter-high hill, but their appearance is no different from that of male iron-eating ants.

Datou didn't dare to make any sound. He turned his head and glanced at Qiu Fei angrily.

Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were clear: You are a jinx. You said before that you would be bitten by iron-eating ants, and now your words have come true.

If a mountain of Level 5 Iron-Eating Ants treated them like female Iron-Eating Ants, they would have absolutely no power to resist. By then, they could only pray they didn't get pregnant with the Iron-Eating Ants' offspring...

Ugh!

It's not about getting pregnant with the seeds of the iron-eating ants, but about not being parasitized by the seeds of the iron-eating ants.

The iron-eating ants looked like they were digesting their food after eating too much. After Jiang He came in, he glanced around and then rushed towards the male iron-eating ants.

This male iron-eating ant must be dealt with.

It wasn't because of the crystal core, but because she had clearly felt the mating information that the other party was sending to her.

The opponent probably became very arrogant because he was promoted to level five, and his intention changed from "offering himself to the queen" to "making the queen submit to him".

Being entangled by a nail-eating green python would be bad enough, but now he is also being targeted by an iron-eating ant.

You should know that the iron-eating ants were just ordinary ants before the Cataclysm.

Even an ant wants to be with her, that's too much!

Jiang He sprinted at an extremely fast speed. Everyone was looking at the male iron-eating ant when Jiang He rushed over and punched the sleeping male iron-eating ant on the head.

Everyone: ...Can't you observe its weaknesses before fighting?

Why are you in such a hurry? I'm in a hurry again.

This woman is so reckless! So naive! So ignorant.

Did she think that the highlight of the training camp was punching and kicking people, when people didn't fight back because they were afraid of being sent to the dark room? The iron-eating ants nowadays don't have such worries.

Yao Leng's eyes were cold, Cai He's eyes were full of sarcasm, and even Datou was sighing silently.

He now finally understood why there were so few or even no women in the training camp, because with women's strength and intelligence, it was really difficult for them to survive in a place like a training camp.

Everyone tacitly agreed not to go see the brown bear.

Brown Bear's status among the aliens is second only to Qin Han, not only because of his strong strength, but also his leadership mind, which makes people willing to follow him. But now, he has a brainless woman.

No matter how rare this woman is, it's a bit disgraceful to see her paired with a brown bear.

There is a hard shell on the head of the male iron-eating ant. The black shell is as hard as a juniper. When Jiang He punched it, its head did not tremble at all, as if it had hit a stone.

As if awakened, the male slowly opened his eyes, his eyeballs rolling around, and finally stopped, his gaze falling on Jiang He.

The female iron-eating ant has six small red eyeballs, while the male now only has two eyeballs open, which are pitch black and blend into the same color as its body. If you don't look closely, you can hardly see its eyeballs.

When it opened its eyes, everyone became alert.

But Jiang He didn't care. She didn't even bother to look at it and punched it on the head again.

The male iron-eating ants' courtship signals were extremely strong. Although no one else could hear the sounds made by the ants, Jiang He could hear the sounds clearly as if he was wearing a translator.

"The Queen, the Queen is here."

"This queen is so ugly."

"It's too ugly. I don't want to bother with it or eat it."

"Forget it, there's only one queen right now, let her stay dormant for now, and I'll switch to another one when I find a prettier one."

"The Queen is coming."

"The queen can't wait. This queen looks so weak, not ferocious at all. Will the queen being too weak affect my descendants?"

"I'd better be reserved. I'm so strong, any queen would come up to me and rub her face against me. I'll wait for her to come and beg me."

…

Jiang He punched it on the head three times before it took a few steps back.

Everyone: ...You finally know how to retreat. Are you trying to piss them off and then retreat, so they can shift their firepower to us? You stupid woman!

But before they could release their skills, Jiang He rushed forward again, grabbed the male iron-eating ant's head with both hands, picked up the hill of iron-eating ants and smashed them against the wall.

"Bang!"

There was a loud bang, and the cave seemed to be shaking, and everyone's heart trembled.

My goodness, this woman is quite strong and brave. How dare she fight against the mutant like this? She is not afraid that the other party's dense pincers will pinch her to death. The other party can just open its mouth and bite off her head.

The male iron-eating ant was smashed against the wall and fell to the ground.

Under everyone's vigilant gaze, the male iron-eating ant let out an "Awooo" and turned to run towards another passage.

Jiang He was quick-witted and quick-handed. He grabbed one of its legs and kicked it in the stomach.

The male iron-eating ant twisted and struggled with its huge body, unable to pull its pincers out of Jiang He's hand. It simply turned around, bit off its own pincer leg with one bite, and then rolled and crawled, rushing towards the passage again in panic.

It has so many pincer legs on its body that it doesn't really matter if one is missing.

But everyone was extremely confused about its panicky escape behavior.

You're a level 5 Iron-Eating Ant, don't you know how powerful you are? Why do you look like a weakling who runs away when you can't win?

Are you still thinking of yourself as a little iron-eating ant?

Male iron-eating ants: The queen is not only ugly but also cruel.

Big Head: "It ran away! It ran away! Damn, it actually cut off its tail to survive and ran away. Do you think it was scared away by the smell of the Level 6 Nail-Eating Green Python on us?" [ ]

No one answered him, everyone was looking at Jiang He.

Jiang He nodded and responded to Datou's words very straightforwardly, "You're right, it was scared away."

Male iron-eating ant: Ahhh, the queen is ugly and cruel. She looks like she wants to eat me. But I am so powerful, why should I be eaten by the queen as a tonic? Help me, I just want to be fucked, not eaten. Run, run, run...

The expression on Jiang He's face was too calm and indifferent. When faced with Datou's doubts about her ability, she actually confirmed the other party's doubts so lightly.

Although everyone doubted her ability and tended to believe that Datou had told the truth about the male iron-eating ants' escape, now that Jiang He took the lead in praising Datou's words, everyone felt weird in their hearts, as if something was not right.

Datou said embarrassedly, "Sister, you are very strong. In fact, it is possible that you drove the iron-eating ants away."

He said this last sentence in a very bad conscience.

Fortunately, he has no conscience. If the other person was a man, he would never say such words.

Forget it. She's a woman, and Brother Xiong's woman. For Brother Xiong's sake, it doesn't matter if I tell her a few lies to comfort her.

Jiang He: "It wasn't beaten away, it was just scared away."

Big Head: ...Hey, you are quite self-aware.

Jiang He looked at the brown bear and said, "I want to keep moving forward."

Do you want to rest here or go together?

Brown Bear: "Okay, I'll go ahead this time."

He was afraid that Jiang He would get ahead of him, so he strode forward.

It was already very cold in the cave. If we rested there, we would just be frozen into popsicles without realizing it. Whether we wanted to or not, we had to keep going.

Datou followed Jiang He and asked her curiously, "Why didn't you just punch the iron ant in the stomach?"

After all, his stomach was so full that his belly looked thin and fragile, while his head was obviously very hard.

Jiang He, "My stomach looks a bit disgusting. If it explodes with a hammer, everything inside will splatter all over me."

This was not the main reason. Jiang He hammered the iron-eating ant's head because that guy used his head to share information with her, and she really didn't want to hear it constantly calling her ugly.

Big Head: ...Is it only women who have this kind of train of thought?

He turned around and asked Caihe, "If it were you, would you hammer the iron-eating ant's belly or its head?"

Caihe said without hesitation, "My stomach."

Datou turned his head to look at Yao Leng again. Without him asking, Yao Leng immediately replied, "Stomach."

Any normal person would choose to attack the opponent's most vulnerable point, especially if the opponent is a super powerful level five mutant. If the attack is not fatal, it will only anger the opponent.

Big Head breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that there was something wrong with the woman's brain circuit.

He asked the brown bear in front of him, "Brother Bear, where would you attack the iron-eating ants?"

Brown Bear, "The crystal core is in the brain of the iron-eating ant."

Brown Bear: Are you kidding me? My woman bravely rushed forward to fight against the level 5 iron-eating ants for me. I must support her!

When Datou was reminded by him, he immediately felt a little regretful, "I actually let a level 5 crystal core get away, ahhh, what a mistake."

Yao Leng, "It's a bit of a pity."

Although it was a bit of a pipe dream to attack the fifth-level iron-eating ant with their fighting power, this iron-eating ant had just advanced and was in an unstable state. If they attacked it at this time, it was hard to say who would win.

Hearing this, Jiang He turned around and asked him, "How about I call it back?"

The male iron-eating ant didn't go far, and it didn't want to give up on the ugly queen. It planned to make a comeback and beg the queen to have sex with it.

Yao Leng: ...You think the Iron-Eating Ant is your pet dog, ready to come whenever you want! You're not afraid of it exploding if you brag too much.

Datou was a bit naive and didn't think Jiang He was bragging. "Sister, can you really call it back? Is this one of your abilities? By the way, sister, what is your attribute? Is it a beast gene mutation, or something else? I see you are really strong."

It's a pity that even with such great strength, I couldn't crack the iron-eating ant's head open. If I punched the iron-eating ant's stomach, it would definitely burst its belly, and then the level 5 crystal core would be easily obtained.

Alas, although this woman is strong, her brain is not very good.

Jiang He: "I can call it back, but you have to go and get the crystal core from its head yourself. Once you're sure, I'll call it back."

If these people could get rid of the iron-eating ants, she wouldn't have to listen to them calling her "ugly woman" anymore.

Brown Bear: "Finding Mine No. 2 is the most important thing. We need to maintain our strength. It gets colder and colder deep in the mine, so it's best to reduce unnecessary energy consumption."

A level five crystal core is indeed rare, but life is the most important thing.

Everyone knew that Brown Bear was actually helping the woman by saying this, giving her a way out so that her boast would not be exposed when everyone asked her to call the iron-eating ants.

Only Jiang He felt that what the brown bear said made sense, so he no longer thought about killing the iron-eating ants.

After walking a little further, everyone's steps gradually became stiff, and their bodies and faces were covered with frost. It was too cold, and no one wanted to waste energy talking.

The only thing to be thankful for is that with the presence of Jun in the mine, the mine has become bigger and is no longer narrow and low. Sometimes three people can pass through side by side.

There were two forks in the road ahead. Brown Bear stopped, took out the mine map from his arms, and looked at it under the light of the mining lamp. The watch on his hand could not only point the way, but also show how many meters underground he was.

Jiang He leaned over to take a look, and was immediately shocked when he saw the function of the watch. His gaze gradually became hot. There was actually such a high-tech product in the training camp?

She had been at the bottom of the mine for a few days and had always thought that this was the life of cavemen, isolated from high technology.

She couldn't help but ask Brown Bear, "How many points did you use to buy this watch?"

Big Head said, "Brother Xiong's watch wasn't bought with points. It was brought to him by someone from outside. There's only one like this in the entire training camp. It's very rare."

Jiang He was puzzled. "People outside?"

If it was brought from another planet, it would indeed be a rare item.

"A62 is not some other planet," Big Head said. "There's also our Inhuman organization outside the training camp. This watch was handmade by a guy with mechanical abilities in the organization. Unfortunately, he died before he could mass-produce this one."

Dead people on Planet A62 are like dead ants. Only those who are useful to everyone will be remembered after their death.

Brown Bear finished looking at the map and said to everyone, "Go left."

No one objected. It didn't matter to them where they went, and it was certainly better to have someone to show them the way.

The mine tunnel was very steep, and because of the drop in temperature and frost in the mine, several people were forced to slide down after sitting down on the ground while walking.

But the road in the mine was bumpy and their buttocks would hit some bumps from time to time, causing them to hiss and gasp in pain. The painful area was a bit embarrassing, and they lost all sleepiness in an instant. Fortunately, the mine tunnel turned left and right, giving them some time to buffer.

This downhill road was slippery for a long time. Halfway through, the brown bear suddenly changed into a beast form and used its huge body to block the mine tunnel, blocking the road.

Everyone's footballs hit him one by one, forcing him to brake.

The animal-shaped brown bear couldn't speak human language and just growled softly a few times.

Everyone looked out and discovered that there was an enormous mine in front of them. The diameter was seven or eight meters, and the bottom of the mine was boiling magma.

If the brown bear hadn't used its huge beast form to get stuck in the mine tunnel, no one would have been able to stop the car and would have fallen into the lava like dumplings.

Big Head took a deep breath and clutched the brown bear's fur tightly with both hands, fearing that his body would go limp and slip out. "How could there be magma at the bottom of the mine?"

Yao Leng: "It is said that there is a magma pool in the inner layer of the mine. We are currently in the middle layer, so there shouldn't be a magma pool."

Caihe asked, "Could it be related to the ground subsidence?"

Today's sinkhole is very abnormal. Even the No. 1 mine has collapsed. The appearance of a magma pool in the middle layer seems acceptable?

The magma pool was bubbling non-stop, with a bubble of hot waves exploding from time to time. Everyone was at the magma mouth, more than ten meters away from the magma at the bottom of the cave, but when the magma bubbles exploded, they felt a burning sensation as if the heat waves splashed on their faces.

"It's so hot." Big Head sighed: "Can we still crawl back?"

There is clearly high-temperature magma below, but the mine tunnel here is still frozen.

The temperature polarization is serious. It is easy to slide down, but it is very difficult to climb back.

Yao Leng has ice attribute. He can condense ice but cannot melt it.

Several people stumbled and tried to climb up, but after a few steps they slipped back onto the brown bear.

The brown bear roared a few times.

His beast form cannot speak human language.

However, since the bear's roar was extremely violent and unfriendly, everyone felt that he was urging them.

Maybe even he can't hold on any longer.

Just when everyone was at a loss, they suddenly found that Jiang He had passed them and was climbing up first.

Her hands and feet were supported on the walls on both sides of the cave.

The wall was also very slippery, but the way she supported her body was somewhat similar to a brown bear using its animal form to get stuck in the cave.

Datoumang also imitated her movements and climbed up, but it was very strenuous. If he wasn't careful he would slide down again.

He saw Jiang He had walked steadily for a long distance without slipping, so he sincerely asked, "Sister, do you have barbs on your palms? I haven't seen you slip. What's the secret to climbing like this without slipping?"

Jiang He: "No barbs, no tricks."

She paused and added, "When I was in the small dark room, I climbed up the wall like this every day. The walls of the small dark room were even more difficult to climb than this."

The walls in the mine are uneven and full of potholes like the road. You should know that the walls in the small dark room are smooth.

There's no trick, just practice.

Although Datou failed to learn anything from Jiang He, the others bandaged their palms after hearing their conversation.

Yao Leng only had one arm left, but his feet were covered with tiny ice spikes that looked like barbs, making climbing much easier than before.

Caihe is a genetic mutation of the beast crane, and he can develop wings to assist in climbing.

Qiu Fei, like Datou, can only learn from Jiang He.

Turning around, he saw that everyone had already climbed up for a distance, so the brown bear supported himself with his hands and climbed up as well.

His beast form can block the mine, making it easier to climb without having to worry about slipping.

Suddenly, Jiang He turned around and shouted towards the brown bear: "Run!"

She was the fastest and had already climbed to the bend. She reached out and grabbed the arm of the big guy behind her and threw him backwards.

She used both her hands and feet to climb over the cave wall above the heads of Yao Leng and others, and in the process, she picked up Qiu Fei, who was the slowest climber, and threw him forward with force.

It was so sudden and so fast that Qiu Fei had no time to react. After being thrown to the corner above, he didn't have time to support his body. Fortunately, Datou reached out and grabbed him in time.

Jiang He's warning was sharp, and everyone stepped on the gas like a horse that had been stabbed in the buttocks.

Only when they all reached the corner did he breathe a sigh of relief and look back.

The brown bear's body has turned back into human form. Behind him is a huge magma beast, with magma flowing down its body. The magma is flowing endlessly, but its body shape has not changed.

The thing was stuck at the entrance of the mine, and it stretched out its long lava claws to grab one of the brown bear's legs. Fortunately, the brown bear turned back into human form in time and was not completely caught by it.

Human flesh was smoking as it was roasted in the scorching lava, and the smell of burnt flesh was overwhelming.

The brown bear's hands and claws were still supporting the wall, and his claws scratched deep marks on the wall. His body was sliding down as he was grabbed by the magma beast.

Yao Leng and Qiu Fei immediately released their coldness and fists towards the magma beast.

The colorful crane also flew out its hardest and sharpest crane feather to pierce the magma beast's eyes.

Their attacks all turned into nothingness after coming into contact with the magma beast, and Caihe's crane feathers were instantly burned into ash smoke, leaving no residue.

Seeing that the brown bear was exhausted, Jiang He supported his legs on the cave wall, bent down and grabbed the brown bear's shoulders with both hands, and met the eyes of the magma beast that was pulling the brown bear's legs.

The magma beast, with magma all over its body, had no other color but a rich orange color like fireworks. It had no specific facial features, but Jiang He still felt that its gaze was very aggressive. It was staring at him and baring its teeth at him.

When it bares its teeth, magma comes out of its mouth like a fountain.

Jiang He also opened his mouth.

A sharp roar instantly passed through the throat and rushed towards the magma beast.

When the magma beast's body was attacked by the roar, it froze for a moment, then melted into a pool of magma and fell into the magma pool, making a huge splashing sound.

Then countless magma beasts rolled out from the magma and pounced on Jiang He and the brown bear.

They opened their mouths wide and roared, spitting out streams of magma like water guns towards Jiang He and the brown bear.

Jiang He exerted force with both hands and threw the brown bear, which had already slid to the edge of the mine, upwards.

Because of the bear gene, the brown bear is the largest, so it was a bit difficult for Jiang He to throw him in this posture, and he barely threw the brown bear halfway into the mine tunnel.

Fortunately, the big head above was pulled by Qiu Fei and Cai He's legs, hanging upside down and grabbing one of the brown bear's arms. Several people were safe and sound, and they all breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang He.

Jiang He's back was sprayed with lava by the magma beast several times, and the flesh was burning with a sizzling sound.

She didn't look back at the magma beasts that were so close to her. She held her breath and climbed quickly using her hands and feet.

The magma beast was stuck at the entrance of the cave, and when it was about to hook Jiang He, she quickly climbed upwards to avoid the disaster.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled the brown bear back. Datou reached out to pull Jiang He again.

Jiang He handed him his hand and climbed up to the corner.

There is still a slope above and there is still ice.

But at least there is no such thing as a magma beast.

The heads of the magma beasts were all crowded at the cave entrance, spraying magma at the few people.

But now everyone is around the corner, and the possibility of being hit by lava is not high at all.

"You bunch of idiots." Big Head raised his middle finger at them. "Go back."

It would have been fine if he didn't speak, but as soon as he spoke, the magma beast's mouth grew wider and its roar became even louder.

Although they could not understand what Big Head said, they felt the provocation and contempt from the other party.

The malicious contempt made the magma beasts extremely angry. They suddenly reached out, took off their own heads and threw them at Big Head.

Although it was only thrown to the corner, the head of the magma beast turned into a baby magma beast after it landed, grew limbs and ran towards the big head.

After a baby magma beast appeared, the other magma beasts probably couldn't swallow the humiliation of being despised by the ants, so they twisted off their heads and threw them into the mine.

Big Head: ...

"Ahhh pervert! Run, run!"

He shouted and used his hands and feet to support the wall, climbing up very quickly.

Brown Bear, "Yao Leng climbed onto my back and released the ice spikes."

Probably the only one who can deal with the magma beast is Yao Leng.

Yao Leng immediately rode on the brown bear's back and released ice spikes with one hand towards the baby magma beast chasing behind him.

The baby magma beasts are too small and their power is not as great as that of the magma beasts.

Yao Leng's ice spikes were quite effective on them. Every time they hit the opponent, their steps would slow down for a moment.

Qiu Fei's telekinetic punch also had an effect on the magma baby. Every time he threw a punch, it felt like his fist was actually hitting the magma baby, burning it painfully and hotly. Glancing at the burn marks on Jiang He's back, his fist trembled from the heat, but he gritted his teeth and did not stop attacking.

Jiang He was still at the back, and she glanced back several times.

The magma babies initially climbed on all fours, in the same climbing posture as them, but gradually, they stood up straight and used only their lower limbs to sprint quickly.

This way they look like little firemen.

Although he is full of anger and has a bad temper, he is inexplicably cute.

"Sister, be careful!" Big Head yelled at Jiang He. Without any weapon in his hand, he took out a crystal core from his pocket and threw it behind Jiang He.

When the brown bear saw that he threw a shiny crystal core, he immediately had a bad feeling in his heart, because his woman was a cute girl who couldn't walk when she saw a crystal core.

He subconsciously turned around to look.

Jiang He saw a sparkling crystal core passing by her side. Hey, a level 2 crystal core?!

The hand that was still holding onto the wall reflexively reached out to grab.

The crystal core was very fast, so she had to move her body.

His entire body suddenly lost its balance and slid a little on the ice.

Good news, she has the crystal core in her hand.

Bad news, she's about to have a car crash with a lava baby.

This fastest-running magma baby was originally very close to Jiang He, and the big-headed crystal core also hit it.

Unexpectedly, Jiang He intercepted them halfway.

The distance was so close that Jiang He could even feel the hair on the back of his hand being roasted by the magma and turned into smoke, emitting a burnt smell.

Her eyes widened and met the lava baby's gaze.

The other party was also staring at her with wide eyes. Oh, its mouth was also wide open, like a small round circle.

Perhaps because it was too small, it could not spray magma from its mouth, and could only flow out one or two drops of magma, as if it was drooling at Jiang He's head.
