The sudden brightness of the forest forced the fleeing ordinary players to turn their heads away. They had thought that the lightning from the four explosions would splash onto them, but suddenly an invisible wall rose up, blocking the players and the scorpion group.
Several scorpion monsters on the edge dodged the heavy lightning strike, moved their bodies on the ground, and were a little dazed. After they stood firm, they suddenly pounced on their own kind that were rushing up from behind, as if they were going to die together without caring about anything.
Gu Xici, who was drawing his bow, glanced sideways at Qin Yu, whose eyes were empty beside him, then retracted his gaze and shot another arrow at the swarm of scorpions rushing towards him.
Several players who were trying to escape were blinded by the lightning and fell to the ground.
As the light faded, they lowered their shields and watched as the remaining scorpion monsters began to slaughter each other. They moved backward in fear, only to turn back and see a giant scorpion slowly rising from the lake not far behind them.
The scorpion was completely black, with water stains on its shell. When exposed to the sunlight, the light was dazzling.
Lu Cai looked at the huge monster rising from the lake, his eyes fell on the head of the giant scorpion. Perhaps because no one could grow as big as it, it did not wear human skin.
Gripping the dagger in her hand, she weighed it secretly, hoping that the dagger could hold back the scorpion.
The giant scorpion was a little excited when it saw several figures on the shore, and it climbed up the shore regardless of anything.
The people who had just been chased by the scorpions screamed, only to see a red figure, standing with its back to them, suddenly rush forward. Its claws met theirs, and the red figure leaped lightly, landing on the giant scorpion's claws.
The giant scorpion then noticed the tiny person and raised its claws to try to get rid of her.
The moment the scorpion raised its claws, Lu Cai leaped down and stepped on its head. She raised her dagger and stabbed it hard in the center of its skull.
The scorpion's body trembled, and it fell backward quickly, with its claws raised above its head, and its scorpion tail stabbed at the little man on the head.
Lu Cai dodged a few times and took the opportunity to put the supernatural energy into the giant scorpion's wound.
The lake water has already flooded the scorpion's abdomen, and it is still retreating.
Want to hide in the water? Lu Cai frowned. This was a large lake, and the scorpion was huge. If she really went into the water, she would have no chance of winning. If she used a barrier to block its path, it would consume most of her energy, leaving her with nothing for emergency use, and it wouldn't be safe.
There were many trees on the shore, and she thought of an idea that she could give a try.
A thin red thread suddenly shot out, replicating itself in mid-air before slowly straightening. One end of the thread reached for the giant scorpion's flailing claws, quickly enveloping them upon contact with the carapace. The other end, still replicating and stretching, raced toward the trees on the shore until it wrapped around the trunk.
The giant scorpion's body suddenly stopped, and the tree on the shore that was entangled in red silk also shook violently.
Lu Cai's eyes lit up. This method is feasible!
While the scorpion hadn't reacted yet, she released a few more red threads, and she rushed out, sheathed the dagger with a wave of her hand, clenched her fists, and suddenly jumped up when the scorpion's tail swept towards her. The moment she landed, she punched the scorpion on the back.
The supernatural energy within the giant scorpion transformed its own data arrangement, mimicking the data within the scorpion, constantly swallowing up the original numbers around it, eroding it along the way. Where Lu Cai's fist landed, a data crack appeared, and these copied numbers quickly filled it, greatly accelerating the speed of the supernatural power's conquest.
The inside of the insect body was in chaos, making the giant scorpion's movements sluggish, and the red silk stretched out in the air took the opportunity to bind it.
A dozen red threads were stretched tight in the air, pulling tightly at the scorpion that was trying to retreat.
After struggling for several times, the giant scorpion was unable to break free and slowly stopped moving. Lu Cai struck again, hitting the tail with a punch.
The scorpion's tail trembled, and the insect's legs submerged in the water moved twice.
Lu Cai stood firm, feeling the insect's body stagnate under his feet, thinking it could no longer hold on, and was puzzled. Such a large scorpion, her supernatural energy should not be so fast.
The giant scorpion rushed out of the lake and onto the shore, with a fierce determination to die together.
Lu Cai, who was on the insect's back, shook violently and barely stood firm. He realized its intention and quickly activated his special powers. A red barrier quickly rose up and blocked the big scorpion, blocking its way.
The barrier was already very high and wide, but it still looked weak in front of the giant scorpion.
Lu Cai loosened his fist, as if he had lost all his energy.
I always feel that if I don't die, my superpowers won't be able to upgrade...
He felt a little tempted... He quickly dismissed this dangerous thought from his mind, clenched his fists again, squatted down and continued to hammer the insect.
After the scorpions on the shore were cleared away, Qin Yu and Gu Xici turned around and looked behind them. They saw a huge black scorpion lying on the nearby shore. Its light-colored barrier and wisps of red silk were very conspicuous among the trees.
They saw Lu Cai pounding on the scorpion's back, his skinny figure squatting on the insect, his hands raised above his head, and then smashing down hard.
With every hit, the giant scorpion trembled slightly. Finally, starting from the scorpion's head, the black armor slowly turned dark red. The giant scorpion's legs stretched straight, and the toes dug into the mud. After a while, the legs slowly relaxed, and the giant scorpion became completely motionless.
Lu Cai also felt the insect under his feet gradually relax, and his fist stopped swinging.
Half of the insect's body sank into the water. Lu Cai leaned forward, and the lake water reached her toes. She stood up decisively and ran to the shore.
As the shore drew near, the giant black scorpion suddenly arched upwards. The insect under Lu Cai's feet tilted slightly, causing her to lose her balance and fail to jump off.
In order to steady herself, she took out a dagger and stabbed it into the black armor of the giant scorpion. Just as she used the dagger to steady herself, the insect's body flipped to one side.
The red silk was still pulling at its chelicerae and several thin legs, and a few bundles were tied to the scorpion's tail, but the insect's body did not stop rolling because of the taut red silk.
The trees tied with red silk on the shore trembled slightly as they were pulled. Lu Cai only saw a scorpion tail appear on the other side of the insect's body, and then the whole body sank into the water.
She quickly pulled out the dagger from the insect's back. It must have been another giant scorpion that had flipped the dead scorpion over! She had to get back to shore quickly! Avoiding the sinking scorpion's corpse, she turned her head and faced a giant scorpion curled up in a ball.
He trembled all over and almost raised his hand to hit it, only to find that the scorpion was motionless, as if it was in deep sleep.
Slowly looking up, I saw that there was more than just this one. The entire lake was filled with curled-up scorpions of all sizes floating in the air, swaying gently with the waves.
Lu Cai couldn't imagine how desperate these scorpions would feel if they took a small wooden boat and sailed to the center of the lake and woke up.
Now, these scorpions were all in a dormant state. Lu Cai was planning to swim back to the shore quietly to discuss with Qin Yu and the others and decide on a countermeasure when a shadow fell on his head.
She looked up and saw a huge insect body floating on the water, blocking out a large area of skylight.
It was the second scorpion to emerge from the water. It seemed to have fought with Qin Yu and the others.
Lu Cai felt the scorpion tremble slightly, and there was a flash of lightning. She quickly put up a barrier to block it, and a large amount of lightning exploded from the scorpion's body and scattered through the water.
Looking at the lightning streaking across the water, Lu Cai felt somewhat desperate.
It's over.
As expected, the scattered lightning struck many sleeping giant scorpions, causing the entire water to fluctuate.
The big scorpion slowly opened its legs and its tail slowly rose.
Lu Cai even noticed that these scorpions were furious.
Then, a strong lightning bolt struck her directly.
The lightning struck the pale red barrier, and Lu Cai felt a sharp pain in his limbs as if he were being pricked by needles. The barrier suddenly exploded and dissipated.
She heard the crackling sound and couldn't help wondering, does lightning in the water also make sounds? Another lightning bolt struck!
Without the barrier, the power of the lightning increased several times. She couldn't hold her breath, and the cool lake water seeped into her mouth and nose. The feeling of suffocation mixed with the pain, and the two sides competed for supremacy and rushed into her brain.
Her mind was no longer able to think, and she stared at the deep lake. There was a faint light on the surface of the water in the distance. She still had her eyes open, but the light dimmed and she was plunged into darkness.
An idea finally popped up in Lu Cai's mind - is this what it feels like to be betrayed by teammates?
A flash of lightning flashed across the endless darkness.
Her body shook violently. What did she see in that fleeting light?
As soon as he thought about it, another flash of lightning flashed before his eyes. Unlike the previous one, it was a hazy red light, so subtle that it was imperceptible, tearing a bright red crack in the darkness.
Something is stirring in the darkness...
Until... another red lightning flashed before my eyes.
This time, she saw it clearly, just a glance, and she was immersed in the data of this lightning.
Every bone in her body ached, but that couldn't distract her from Lightning's data.
The monsters in the lake slowly awakened. They moved their legs and shook their tails. Several of them slowly floated to the surface, and more giant scorpions gradually gathered around the girl floating in the lake.
They were bewitched, oblivious to their surroundings. Their only target was the girl with her eyes wide open and a dull expression.
The water surged, and the red cloak spread out, floating in the dark tide. The scorpion monster lost some control and began to speed up towards the girl.
The water seemed to stop, and then the next moment, thousands of crimson lightning bolts shot out from the girl's body!
Qin Yu frowned as she stood on the shore. She trusted Lu Cai, but that didn't mean she wasn't worried. She should have stopped Gu Xici when he used his lightning ability just now...
It was as if a strong wind blew, and the water waves crashed, causing waves to surge on the surface.
Gu Xici stood beside Qin Yu, holding a bow. He stared at the water surface which was gradually becoming ripples, and noticed that something was changing.
A red light suddenly lifted the surface of the water and hit the two overlapping giant scorpion corpses, and red lightning exploded violently.
The two men retreated hastily, and Lightning jumped out of the water again and exploded on the river bank. A large piece of land collapsed, and mud and rocks sank into the lake.
The lake water became turbid, and bursts of red light exploded in the water.
Gu Xici was dumbfounded. This kind of light was very familiar to him! It was the light of his supernatural lightning!
But looking at the large area of lightning underwater, he had to admit that this formation was even more powerful than the limit of his current supernatural powers.
