"And it's in the water." Meng Qingyin said confidently.
As soon as she finished speaking, a muffled voice rang out from the bottom of the lake: "I didn't expect you to find this place, hahahaha... I'm really impressed. But that's fine, since you've come here on your own accord, then go ahead and experience the true mirage."
After saying that, the white mist in the center of the lake began to spread around and gradually moved towards the shore.
Zhang Yan sneered, "We've already seen through your mirage. Do you think it can trap us a second time?"
Meng Qingyin's expression turned serious. "No, it just said 'real mirage', which means this mirage is more powerful, and the white mist is probably the medium. We must not come into contact with it. Also, we must fight quickly!"
If they didn't get rid of the thing in the water before the white fog covered the place, they would not be able to avoid the white fog and would eventually sink into the mirage.
Qin Jiu took out the Fengming Knife and pointed it towards the center of the lake. "It's right under the water there, right? I'll go meet it first!"
After saying that, he jumped into the water and swam quickly towards that place.
Chen Leying and Zhang Yan followed closely behind, and Fei Qiu also immediately gave the three of them a power-enhancing state.
Lu Cheng also wanted to go into the water, but was stopped by Meng Qingyin. "Lu Cheng, you should stay on the shore. The pear blossom needle has almost no effect underwater. It's better for you to stay here and help Fei Qiu guard the surroundings. You can also observe the spread of the white fog at any time."
Fei Qiu was a supporting role, and his mind was focused on a few people. If he was attacked at this time, he would be in trouble.
Although Zheng Shi also stayed on the shore, he felt at ease only when Lu Cheng was left behind.
Lu Cheng nodded: "Okay, be careful."
Zheng Shi was also a little worried. "If you can't win, just get ashore quickly. There's no shame in running away."
Meng Qingyin nodded, and she and Zaizai jumped into the water one after another and swam towards the center of the lake.
At the bottom of the lake, the weapons of Qin Jiu and the other two hit a huge clam shell one by one. The clam shell looked as big as a house, and the three people looked extremely small in front of it.
Only when Meng Qingyin got closer did she realize that this thing was a giant mirage monster.
However, the clam shell was tightly closed and extremely hard at this moment, and coupled with the buffering effect of the water flow, the three people were unable to break the huge clam shell for a while.
Moreover, since they were fighting underwater, their physical strength was consumed quickly and they had to return to the shore to breathe after a while. In addition, the spread of white fog on the water surface made the situation very unfavorable for them.
After Meng Qingyin arrived, she gestured to everyone to concentrate their attacks on one point so that they could break the clam shell.
The three of them took turns attacking the place Meng Qingyin pointed, and soon a tiny crack appeared there.
Seeing this, everyone was encouraged and attacked that place continuously.
But the giant mirage monster suddenly moved and slowly sank into the mud at the bottom of the lake.
It wants to escape!
The four of them saw the intention of the giant mirage monster and chased after it.
Unexpectedly, the next moment the giant mirage monster suddenly opened its shell and swallowed the four people and the cub into the shell in the blink of an eye.
The entire surface of the water was filled with its triumphant laughter: "You guys still dare to kill me? Just become my food...ah!"
The giant mirage demon suddenly let out a painful wail, "Who is eating me?!"
It felt its soft clam meat being torn apart by a pair of fangs, and the pain was excruciating.
After a while, it opened its shell and tried to squeeze them out with the clam meat, but it was of no use!
The sharp fangs bit off piece after piece of clam meat, and in the blink of an eye, a large piece of the clam shell was empty!
The giant mirage monster rolled at the bottom of the lake in pain, causing huge waves to rise on the originally calm lake surface.
On the shore, Lu Cheng and the other two had no idea what was happening underwater. This was the first time Zheng Shi had encountered such a life-or-death situation. He was extremely anxious, "Will something happen to the heroine and the others?"
Lu Cheng patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, this is not the first time we have experienced this kind of thing. You have to trust them."
Zheng Shi subconsciously nodded repeatedly, but the worry in his eyes could not be dispelled.
At this moment, a large number of common river clams suddenly jumped out of the stream and slammed towards the three people with a crackling sound.
Lu Cheng was quick to push Fei Qiu onto Zhaocai's back and let Zhaocai lift him off the ground.
Fei Qiu is the hope of the team and must not be harmed!
Lu Cheng grabbed Zheng Shi, who was still in a daze, and rushed behind a thick tree to avoid the "clam rain". While running, Lu Cheng was accidentally hit by several clams on the back.
Although these river clams are small in size, they still hurt when they hit you. Lu Cheng hid behind a big tree with a grimace in his face.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief with the protection of the tree trunk.
I don’t know what’s going on at the bottom of the lake. Why are the waves suddenly so turbulent?
Also, what's going on with this river clam that suddenly popped out?
Lu Cheng asked Zheng Shi to hide, and he secretly poked his head out from behind the tree trunk and looked towards the center of the lake. Unexpectedly, the white fog was slowly disappearing.
Lu Cheng's eyes lit up. It seemed that the situation on Meng Qingyin's side was very good!
And what Lu Cheng thought was correct. Five minutes later, the white fog completely dissipated, and Meng Qingyin and the other three were teleported directly to his side.
Lu Cheng looked at Qin Jiu and asked, "How is it? Is everyone okay?"
Zheng Shi also looked at Meng Qingyin, who shook her head, "It's okay."
"You will never imagine how we defeated that giant mirage monster." Qin Jiu's tone was full of excitement, and his eyes kept looking at Zizi.
"The Great Mirage Monster?" Fei Qiu had already come down. "Is it the one that created the mirage? No wonder those clams suddenly jumped out of the water to attack us. They might have been affected by the Great Mirage Monster."
Lu Cheng, however, cooperated very well and asked Qin Jiu: "So how did you defeat the giant mirage monster? Tell me about it quickly, I'm curious!"
Qin Jiu smiled and said, "That guy was so arrogant that he wanted to eat us. He even wanted to eat Taotie. He really had a bold idea. As a result, the cub had a great meal of clam meat."
If the giant mirage monster didn't open its shell on its own, perhaps it could still survive for a while. They would break the shell and kill it quickly.
Who knew it would choose the most painful way to die.
"Wow, you're awesome!" Lu Cheng exclaimed, patting Qin Jiu's head. "Of course, you're awesome too."
Qin Jiu dodged slightly, "I'm all wet."
Zhang Yan couldn't stand the two people being so annoying. "Alright, stop stuffing dog food into my mouth. I need to rest for a while before I go back into the water."
Fei Qiu: "Why are you still going to the bottom of the lake? Hasn't the Great Mirage Monster been defeated?"
Zhang Yan: "After it died, a lot of supplies exploded. The bottom of the lake was densely packed with gears."
Fei Qiu was very surprised. "That's great. We don't have to go through all the trouble of catching clams and looking for gears."
