"Squeak!"
"Squeak!"
"..."
As Bai Yuekui's voice fell, a series of dense climbing sounds rose from the bottom of the pit.
Soon, Ye Li saw a dense mass of dark red spines climbing up the ground along the vines.
"hiss!"
Seeing such a huge number, Ye Li couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
However, Ye Li did not choose to sit and wait for death. He quickly took out two rifles from his spatial ring, threw one to the little stone monkey and the other to Bai Yuekui.
Ye Li, Bai Yuekui, and the little stone monkey quickly stood around the ground vines and began firing at the spine-like insects that were climbing up the vines.
"Da da da!"
"Da da da!"
"..."
Gunshots rang out continuously inside the room.
An explosion followed immediately.
Many of the spiny goblins that were climbing upwards fell into the deep pit due to the impact of the explosion.
However, there were simply too many spinal worms. Despite Ye Li and the others' best efforts to shoot, some of them still managed to reach the upper floors.
As soon as these spine-borne worms landed, they rushed towards Ye Li and his companions, instantly tearing through the defensive line between Ye Li, Bai Yuekui, and the little stone monkey.
"Be careful not to let these spine worms get close!"
Bai Yuekui reminded him, his voice tinged with tension.
She jerked her rifle, throwing a flying spine to the ground, then quickly turned the muzzle and fired a shot at the spine of the spinal worm.
"Bang!"
With a crisp gunshot, the bullet pierced the spine of the spinal worm, splitting its body in two.
However, the spine-like insect did not die immediately; its body was still writhing, trying to crawl toward Bai Yuekui.
"boom!"
Just then, an explosion rang out beneath the spine worm. The terrifying blast instantly annihilated the spine worm, which was still writhing on the ground, turning it into a pile of tiny bone fragments that vanished without a trace.
Just as Bai Yuekui finished off one, before he could even catch his breath, two more pounced on him.
They were incredibly fast, rushing towards Bai Yuekui like lightning.
Bai Yuekui had no choice but to retreat, and at the same time, he quickly turned his gun around again, aimed at the two attacking spine worms, and fired two shots.
Ye Li's situation is also not optimistic.
Those spinal worms are small in size and move quickly.
Aside from the time it takes for them to swoop down from the vines to the upper floors, once they're up there, even bullets have a hard time tracking their movements.
"Damn it, we should have burned the ground vines up there before coming down!"
Ye Li couldn't help but feel a little regretful at this moment.
Previously, when we were on the ground, we used attack weapons that dealt damage over a wide area.
Alternatively, the protective electric grid of the RV can be used to directly electrocute all the spinal cordworms.
I don't think these bugs are troublesome yet.
In this confined space, it's impossible to use a wide-area damage weapon like a Gatling gun.
Once affected by that terrifying explosive force, even the King of Heaven himself would be severely injured.
As for the flamethrower, Ye Li didn't dare let the little stone monkey use it easily, since the surrounding area was full of earth vines, making it impossible to burn them with fire.
Once this place is set on fire, they'll be 25 stories underground, unable to escape and left to their doom.
We won't even need these spine-borne worms; the fire alone will be enough to burn them to death.
However, it's too late for regrets now.
Seeing the increasing number of spines rushing towards him, Ye Li raised an eyebrow, put the gun back into his spatial ring, and once again raised the Soul-Sucking Blade to slash at the approaching spine worms.
