Chapter 1123 The Swarm



To be able to absorb the entire attack from the lightning sword, just what level of monster is this...?

I couldn't help but think to myself, this is just a tiny toad in the mural.

Even if I had that kind of power, what about the others? If they were to come out, it would be a real problem...

I pondered, and according to this logic, that ancient person should have been even stronger.

After all, he was standing in the very center of the entire mural.

But this makes the problem even bigger. The ancient man was completely influenced by the girl, but this guy is completely unaffected!

I didn't have time to think anymore; I just tried my best to dodge to both sides.

This guy was still throwing punches randomly, keeping his sights locked on us.

I knew perfectly well that if I just sat there and waited to die, it was only a matter of time before this guy caught me.

If we don't do something about his endless spitting, sooner or later our feet will be submerged in saliva and vomit, and then we'll be eaten up by this swarm of insects!

Those insects are epic-level creatures! I don't know if I'm going to live or die right now, but I don't want to die like this, without knowing why!

But if you stay still, you'll only die!

These are all things that are set in stone; now the only option is to resist!

"Lightning Sword, can you do that attack again?!"

I asked myself that question.

To be honest, the lightning strike just now really surprised me.

His lightning bolts were positioned defensively, but they also had a certain impact on the fat man.

"No, this move has already drained too much of my energy..."

Lei Jijian gave a helpless reply, and I pondered for a moment.

Yes, vitality!

If only we could find a place to replenish your energy right now.

But ever since we entered this mural and this cramped secret room, we have been in a state of high tension!

I thought to myself, if we had a space where we could rest for a while, things would probably be better now.

When the time comes, I'll just take out the four remaining sea marrows one by one, and then I won't be afraid of anything...

While this thing does have some impact on us, it mostly has a positive effect.

At least in these moments of utter exhaustion, the sea marrow in our hands can definitely boost our energy...

But this guy didn't give me the slightest chance!

The fat man just dusted himself off and then dashed in front of me again!

Damn, is it that trick again?

I've just witnessed him suddenly shift positions twice already.

To be honest, based on his agility alone, the girl and I would have been completely worn out just by following him around in circles.

But what gives me a headache is his ability to suddenly change positions.

It wasn't due to any spatial issues or any special reason brought about by this secret room; it was simply because this guy's movements were too ghostly.

If he had been even a fraction slower, I could have caught him with his movements.

However, I am certain that his rapid movement was achieved at the cost of his own life!

The fat man grabbed the hem of my clothes with one trembling hand, and black blood and rotting worms crawled up my clothes and onto my body.

Holy crap...

I felt nauseous for a moment, and then the insects suddenly crawled onto the wristbands on my hands.

It was at this moment that the fire in my hand seemed to come alive, and it suddenly released a glimmer of light!

I took a look, and this light is somewhat different from the light that emanated from our hands when we first went down from the blue-armored compass to the shallower layers.

The light on my hand is mostly white, but it also has a hint of blue, like the electric light from a lightning sword covering my hand!

Holy crap...

Although it was disgusting, as the light on the wristband shone, the insects seemed to be frightened; it seemed they also had something to fear.

They quickly ran towards my palm, while the larger insects had already fallen to the ground and were circling around looking for food.

I thought to myself, something's not right. Shouldn't I be dead by now?

Otherwise, these worms wouldn't have come to eat me directly...

The problem is, if the food is already prepared, wouldn't they just ask for it directly?

It's crawling around here, as if it's sniffing out a scent, or perhaps it's taking a look around...

At that moment, my resolve became even stronger.

I didn't die at all!

Or rather, it's just that this contract temporarily lowered my vital signs!

"elder brother……"

I suddenly heard a weak cry from the girl.

The wristband on her wrist didn't light up!

How could that be...?

Logically speaking, this thing was given to me by the girl, so if mine lights up, hers should also light up...

Because she didn't have wristbands, the girl's hands are now covered in insects.

And those insects were burrowing into his arm, as if they were savoring his body!

Without hesitation, I immediately unleashed the lightning sword, slashing down. At this point, it was no longer a time to consider whether or not the girl would be harmed…

If I don't let them make the first move, this bug will devour the girl!

The lightning sword only emitted a slight light, and the insect seemed to be on high alert, crawling even faster. I also felt a very unnatural tingling sensation on my hand.

I watched as the insects on the girl's arm stopped crawling upwards and instead began burrowing into her palm...

If these insects are all afraid of this light...

No, it's not the light. What's truly frightening isn't the bracers on my hands, nor is it simply the light from the lightning sword...

This insect is probably afraid of a positive energy!

A big guess popped into my head.

Immediately afterwards, I clenched my fist and unleashed the power of the Dragon Scale Claw...

By now, my hand should be almost fully recovered!

Even if it's impossible, we have to do it. Even if we're exhausted right now, we have to get it done, otherwise we'll never be able to kill all these bugs!

I saw the dragon scales on my hand slowly emerge, but there were only a few at the moment.

Without any hesitation, I immediately slammed my left hand hard against my right arm!

Slurp...

The insects seemed to have suffered a huge blow, and they all fell out one by one!

it works!

Seeing that it worked, I quickly punched the girl's arm again.

The girl was initially a little anxious when she saw my actions.

But before I could even hit her arm, the bugs started jumping down at high speed...

"Brother, watch out!"
