These things all had bodies like those of a main character, with huge eyes staring fiercely at me. I could even see the patterns on their bodies, including the hairs on their tentacles.

While I may not be familiar with these herbs, I am extremely knowledgeable about insects like these.

Because I lived in the mountains when I was little, I would usually catch insects to play with when I had nothing to do.

And this is the centipede I played with a lot when I was a kid!

This thing is poisonous. My parents always tell me to be careful when I play with it. But I've seen so many things when I was little, but I've never seen one this big!

This centipede was over a meter long, its body held high and twisting as if it were ready to attack me at any moment.

I was unsure. If I wasn't mistaken, then it must be a centipede. But if it really was a centipede, how could it grow to such a size?

Could there be something strange about that lava just now?

But these centipedes should absolutely not be able to withstand the heat of the lava, yet they did emerge from there, so that lava must be quite strange...

I stood there, too afraid to move, while Wang Ping and the others made noise, and these things crawled over to the ones that wanted to move again.

I breathed a sigh of relief, quickly dodged past the cave entrance, and ran to Wang Ping's side.

Wang Ping's face was also very pale as he looked at me and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"What the hell is this thing? It looks like some kind of worm."

I cleared my throat and nodded: "This should be a centipede, but its magnanimity is beyond what ordinary people can imagine. If this thing bites you, even Hua Tuo himself couldn't save you. We can't stay here any longer, let's leave now."

But Wang Ping looked at me and shook his head: "Leave? How can we leave? Look back..."

When I turned my head, I found that the hole behind me was now densely covered with these things. They were packed together, one after another, scrambling to get out, but none of them would give way.

When had Bai Wei and his fellow urban white-collar workers ever seen such a scene? They were all trembling with fear, their legs going weak.

Let alone them, even I, who grew up in the deep mountains, have never seen anything like this before!

But we don't have many bullets, and we came out to find medicine for the children. We can't even afford to bring our own equipment. We can't even fight these bugs. If we surrender now, we'll just die one by one, and maybe we'll be dragged into that terrifying power source and turned to ashes.

If I'm going to die, I absolutely can't die in such a strange place!

I gritted my teeth, picked up a stone from the side, and hurled it at the group of witches.

Startled by the noise, the centipede jumped and then, shaking its head wildly, lunged at the rock with tremendous force, which was quite frightening.

"Quickly go and gather Bai Wei and the others. If that doesn't work, we'll have to run. These things crawled out of the fire, so they must be afraid of water. If we can find water, we might be able to escape this disaster."

Wang Ping had already lost his composure. After hearing my instructions, he quickly nodded and then ran towards Bai Wei and the others.

Before long, all of Bai Wei's men, including the foreigners, had gathered on my side.

But when I counted the number of people, I didn't see Yang Rui.

I turned my head to ask Wang Ping, but then I saw Yang Rui run off in a certain direction. Just then, a foreigner in the crowd yelled, and then the crowd erupted. When I turned to look, I discovered that several huge black worms had somehow been dug up from the ground, each carrying a large black cap, and they were rampaging through the crowd.

The male colleagues were clearly terrified by the insects, and they all backed away. Two of them lost their balance and fell to the ground.

I lost my composure at that moment and turned to Wang Ping: "Quickly, take them and run! I'll cover your retreat!"

Bai Wei, who was usually the most timid, snorted coldly at this moment: "With so many monsters, how can one person cover the rear? Since we all came together, we have to go back together. I think running is useless. We might as well fight them!"

The foreigners were also terrified, and they were all talking incoherently, seemingly discussing something.

However, we simultaneously picked up stones and sticks from the ground, preparing for battle.

These insects are clearly targeting us, so it's really hard to say what will happen this time.

I was incredibly nervous, but I had to remain calm and take care of everyone. I was holding a stone in my hand, thinking of throwing it somewhere to make a noise and attract their attention so we could leave. But at that moment, those black worms that had crawled out of our crowd earlier had already crawled to the side of the centipedes.

Suddenly, an unexpected scene came into view: the black insects were not afraid of the centipedes at all, but instead entangled with them.

The centipedes wanted to attack the insects, but couldn't find a place to strike. Clearly, the black covers on the backs of these black insects were very hard.

The black insects moved back and forth, making a sound as they bumped their shells together, which finally got us out of trouble.

Wang Ping was a little nervous and wiped away his cold sweat: "I think we should leave now, otherwise they'll attack us again after they decide who wins!"

Bai Wei breathed a sigh of relief, holding a stone in his hand, his hair disheveled, looking like a madman.

Hearing Wang Ping's words, he couldn't help but agree: "I also think it's not a good place to stay. Let's hurry back, otherwise, we might all be left here."

I nodded, cautiously watching the several groups of insects engaged in fierce fighting. I waved my hand, and they all silently retreated away from the forest, as if they had planned it beforehand.

They walked quite a distance before seeing any centipedes crawl out again, and only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.

"I never expected this place to be so strange. It snows and is freezing cold where we are, but here it's like spring all year round. There are even centipedes that have grown to more than a meter long. We should leave this weird place as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer we stay here, the stranger I will find it."

"I also want to leave this place, but we don't have a boat, and we don't even know where this godforsaken place is or how to get out. Let's not talk about anything else for now and walk forward a bit more. If we can find it, we'll go back. If we really can't find it, then we'll have to let Xiao Qiang think of another way."
