Lieyan felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest, especially after she nervously looked around and realized that no one could help her, which intensified her anxiety.
She has been terrified of insects since she was a child, and the thought of insects crawling around makes her feel nauseous.
Being so close to such a huge insect intensified her fear.
These giant insects contain deadly poison!
What if I get poisoned?
Having barely escaped death, Lieyan had no desire to die.
A thought popped into her mind, and she touched the stone axe behind her.
Why don't we just fight these giant insects head-on?
Thinking of this, Lieyan suddenly remembered what Li Qing had said to him.
She pursed her lips.
cut.
That bastard from the Red Flower Tribe... Why should I listen to what he says?
I want to leave this place, in my own way!
His idea could never be useful. It's a waste of time and completely incompatible with the way our Black Wind Tribe does things. We won't follow his example; we're cowardly in everything we do!
Thinking of this, Lieyan changed his outstretched five fingers into a closed shape and gripped the stone axe tightly.
call……
Lieyan took a deep breath to bolster his spirits.
It's just a bug, nothing serious. It may be disgusting, but I'm a level three warrior. Fighting a mere bug is a piece of cake!
Lieyan gradually overcame her fear, but just as she was about to pull out the stone axe, she recalled the hand Li Qing had given her when she climbed that ancient tree.
If it weren't for him, I might have fallen.
That jerk! He even spanked himself back then. If it weren't for him saving me that time...
Lieyan glanced at Atuna again and saw him shaking his head frantically, signaling with his eyes not to act impulsively, which made him even more hesitant.
"He said that if he showed any particular hostility, these giant insects would become impulsive and kill everyone... Damn it, he's talking nonsense!"
Lieyan glanced at Li Qing defiantly, as if to say, "I'm not going to do what you say, so what can you do about it?"
But when she saw Li Qing's eyes, she became even more hesitant.
"He actually made that pleading face? Humph, he was so arrogant before, and now he knows how to beg me?"
Lieyan felt a surge of joy, as if all the grievances he had suffered before had been avenged this time.
snort--
Suddenly, a few drops of liquid, like saliva, flowed from the mouth of the giant insect in front of them and dripped onto the ground. This made Lie Yan, who had just been thinking about taking revenge on Li Qing, shudder and almost scream.
Flame finally regained control of her emotions—but her fear was still keenly observed by the other giant insects.
Not only this giant insect, but other giant insects also suddenly surged up, surrounding the raging flames!
Their sense of smell is extremely sensitive. Once they realize that the flames are just a charade, they immediately unleash their ferocity and prepare to devour people.
In that instant, the once confident Lieyan was terrified, her face turning red and her eyes welling up with tears. Each of the eight giant insects was several times taller than her, and now that all eight of them were surrounding her, a deep, heartfelt fear gripped her.
At this close range, Lieyan could clearly see the tentacles slowly trembling around the giant insect's mouth, as well as the dense row of footprints on its abdomen, which intensified Lieyan's fear at this moment.
With nowhere to retreat from the flames, she could only wander back and forth within the encirclement that was gradually closing in on her.
The willful thoughts that had crossed my mind before have long since vanished.
"Is there anyone who can save me? I don't want to die..." A few tears streamed down her face. She wasn't afraid of dying in battle, but she was afraid of dying a miserable death.
Blazing Flame looked in the direction where the three of them had just stood, hoping to get their help, but there was no one there anymore.
Those two guys from the Red Flower Tribe, ah, even that kid Atuna... did they all run away? Did they all abandon me and run away?
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have come into this place with them. Now that I'm in trouble, they've abandoned me and run away. What a bunch of cowards!
After her last hope was dashed, Lieyan was heartbroken. She even closed her eyes and waited for the giant insects to tear her body to shreds. In any case, it would be a quick death, and she wouldn't have to see her body torn to pieces by those insects.
"Are you stupid? What are you doing with your eyes closed at this hour? Are you trying to sleep?"
Suddenly, a reproachful voice rang in my ears.
The voice was very familiar to Lieyan. She looked at Li Qing to her left in disbelief and asked, "Why are you here?"
In fact, it wasn't just Li Qing; Atuna and Li also came. They stood in a row with Lie Yan, holding their torches forward and waving them gently as if to drive away the giant insects.
"Shut up!" Li Qingqi said coldly. "If you don't want to live, don't drag us down with you. Atuna is from your tribe. Don't you even want his life?"
These words struck a chord with Lieyan. Although they were meant to be reproachful, they instantly filled Lieyan, whose emotions were already quite complex, with a deep sense of guilt.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so reckless."
Lieyan pursed his lips and said.
This time, she truly realized that she was wrong.
She thought they had abandoned her and run away, but it turned out that she was the one who was wrong all along. She hadn't done what Mai Zi said and had caused them trouble. She had wronged them.
“If you know you’re wrong, then hurry up and raise the torch in your hand,” Li Qing grinned, mocking himself. “How you want to apologize after you leave this place is your business. Otherwise, save these words for hell.”
Now, Lieyan dared not disobey Li Qing anymore. He immediately raised his torch and did the same thing as the other three.
After glancing at the raging flames, Li Qing looked at the eight giant insects again. Their arrival made the eight giant insects cautious again.
"These guys aren't stupid, that's good, I can make good use of that," Li Qing thought to himself.
"Let's go, let's keep moving forward like this."
Li Qingdao.
"But whether we can leave here or not depends on luck." Li Qing chuckled a few times and said, "The current situation is quite different from when we first entered the cave."
For a moment, none of the three knew how to answer that question, and they all fell silent.
Just then, the previously silent Flame suddenly walked in front of the three people who were walking forward. Under their surprised gazes, she turned around and said firmly, "I'll walk in front. This time, I'm the one who has caused trouble for everyone."
