"This is not a solution. We have limited ammunition! If we keep fighting like this, we'll be in trouble when the ammunition runs out!" Ouyang Zhenghao shouted anxiously, his face covered in sweat, reflecting the heat of the desert and the tension of the crisis before him.
Lin Yu quickly looked around, trying to find a place to temporarily hide from the insects. Suddenly, he saw a huge rock nearby. The rock surface was smooth and hard. "Everyone, retreat behind the rock and use it to block the insects' attack! Quick!" Lin Yu shouted.
Hearing the order, the team members continued firing while quickly retreating behind the rocks. By the time they reached the rocks, the insects had already crawled in front of them. They frantically climbed the rocks, trying to climb over them and attack them. Their bodies pressed against each other, making a sickening rustling sound that sounded like the whispers of death.
"Lin Yu, what should we do? It seems like we can never kill all these bugs! If we are surrounded by them like this, sooner or later we will be trapped and die here!" A team member said anxiously, with a hint of despair in his eyes.
Lin Yu stared at the black sea of insects before him, realizing he had to find a complete solution quickly, or they would be doomed. He quickly recalled the special runes the researchers had mentioned before their departure, which were said to repel evil spirits. Without giving it any more thought, he quickly pulled the runes from his backpack and arranged them on the rock in the specific order the researchers had taught him.
As soon as the runes were aligned, a dazzling, mysterious light emanated. The light quickly spread, enveloping the surrounding area like a vast web of light. Under the light, the insects sizzled with painful sounds, their bodies began to smoke, and then gradually turned to ash. The woman in the white robe also let out a sharp, miserable scream, her body gradually dissipating in the light, and finally disappeared into the wind and sand.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the woman and the insect vanish, their tense nerves finally relaxing. But they knew this was only the beginning of their exploration of the Seven-Story Demon Tower; more unknown and terrifying dangers awaited them.
Lin Yu looked at the team members and said solemnly: "Everyone, take a break and recover your strength. We still have to enter the Demon Tower and find a way to strengthen the seal. This is just the beginning, and the difficulties ahead may be far beyond our imagination. Everyone must remain vigilant, and we must successfully complete the mission."
The team nodded in agreement and rested briefly behind the rocks. Each of them was filled with anxiety about the challenges ahead, yet also with a resolute determination to complete the mission. And the mysterious and terrifying seven-story demon tower still stood quietly in the desert, as if waiting in the darkness for them to uncover its long-hidden terrifying secrets. An even more thrilling adventure was slowly unfolding...
