Next, Du Yuqi naturally headed towards the center of the basin. After walking forward more than a hundred meters, he had killed two more mummies and also noticed the characteristics of these mummies lurking underground. That is, wherever there are mummies lurking, there will be a black stain on the ground. This thing may be the excrement of the mummies, or it may be the bait they use to lure prey. In short, all Du Yuqi has to do is to avoid it.
Two hours later, Du Yuqi had left the edge of the basin and came to a place close to the interior. He hid behind a mushroom-shaped boulder, watching the sand at his feet trembling constantly. He held his breath, because just seven or eight meters away, there was a mummy walking slowly towards him with his arms raised.
This mummy was completely different from the one Du Yuqi had killed before. The difference was in its size. This guy was at least twice as tall as an ordinary mummy, reaching over three meters, close to four meters. His body was also extremely heavy. When he stepped on the ground, the surrounding sand particles were rustling. If it hadn't been for the huge rock next to him to protect him, Du Yuqi would have been directly exposed under his eyelids.
If the mummy Du Yuqi encountered before was a human being, then the giant mummy he encountered now should have been a creature like a minotaur or a giant beast, as their height and weight were completely different.
No matter how strong Du Yuqi was, he knew that such a huge creature could not be controlled by grabbing skills. Thinking of the high stiffness and powerful attribute of ordinary mummies, Du Yuqi immediately cried out in his heart that it was abnormal. Unless he could unleash the special effect of the Rifting Mind Blade in his first attack and cause structural damage to the legs of this giant mummy, otherwise, he would have to face a war machine that was tireless and in pain!
Du Yuqi also considered using the move he had just learned not long ago, I Cut the Glacier Disaster, but he had no way to guarantee that he could accurately hit the opponent after performing this move in actual combat, and the period of weakness after using this move was also very long, so he had no choice but to reject it in the end.
With no other options, Du Yuqi had to wait silently there, then climbed onto a huge rock next to him to watch, and finally came to a conclusion helplessly, that is, it was almost impossible to sneak in silently, unless Watery was still by his side to cover up his tracks.
Fortunately, after observing for a while, Du Yuqi discovered two more things, one good thing and one bad thing.
The good news is that a few kilometers to the west, there is an area that looks like a stone forest. This should be the breeding ground of Chaos Worms, and this "stone forest" is a large number of nests built by Chaos Worms, similar to the termite columns near termite nests. Even all the giant mummies are reluctant to get close to this area.
Obviously, this area has unique advantages for Du Yuqi. With Varangir, he can move freely among the Chaos Zerg and use the terrain to go deeper.
The bad thing is that Du Yuqi carefully observed the movements of the giant mummies and found that they had a strong sense of territory and were cautious in their actions. However, he realized that no matter how he optimized his route, he had to kill the three giant mummies - if Du Yuqi could kill them.
After hesitating for a long time, Du Yuqi gritted his teeth and did not choose to retreat. Instead, he looked at the nest of the chaos worms and nodded thoughtfully. Now that he had come here and had such unique conditions, if he could not give it a try, he would never be able to forgive himself when he looked back in the future!
However, before officially facing the giant mummy, Du Yuqi did not advance rashly. Instead, he retreated to the edge of the basin and began to look for ordinary mummies again. At this time, Du Yuqi had a crucial issue to figure out. If he could understand this issue, then his chances of winning could at least increase from 40% to 60%!
As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Du Yuqi retreated for another three hours, during which time he killed five ordinary mummies.
He was extremely tired at this time, especially his right arm was scratched by an ordinary mummy. The wound was bloody and black, and he was in a state of poisoning and curse. Du Yuqi was forced to drink a bottle of abnormal state recovery potion to get rid of this disgusting state.
Of course, the most dangerous moment before was the moment when he was scratched by an ordinary mummy and bled. After this guy smelled the blood, he suddenly became extremely irritable and crazy. His movement speed increased greatly, and even the bandages on his body turned a faint blood color, putting Du Yuqi in danger instantly.
Not only that, stimulated by the smell of blood, an ordinary mummy nearby also broke out of the ground and besieged Du Yuqi together with this monster. However, from Du Yuqi's observation, he had clearly not entered the detection range of this guy.
Du Yuqi was in danger at that time and was almost forced to use his trump card. Fortunately, he was lucky at this time. In the next attack, he triggered the special destructive power of the Rift Soul Blade and cut off the right leg of a mummy. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
After killing the two mummies, Du Yuqi broke out in a cold sweat and quickly climbed back up the wall of the basin to rest. After bandaging his wounds, he drank water, ate, and took a short nap to restore his spirit. Only then did he lurk towards the Chaos Insect Nest again.
Soon, Du Yuqi discovered a giant mummy. This guy was walking on the plain with his arms raised. Its patrol route was very tricky. If Du Yuqi did not kill it and moved forward rashly, then once a battle was triggered in front, his retreat would be blocked by it.
Therefore, it was like a nail firmly nailed in Du Yuqi's throat, and it was an object that had to be pulled out!
Looking at the giant mummy, Du Yuqi took a deep breath, then stood out from the hiding place, appeared in the giant mummy's sight, and then... turned around and ran away!
Yes, of course Du Yuqi was going to escape. The choice of battlefield was of course very important. Among the right time, right place and right people, the advantage of location was placed second.
At the same time, Du Yuqi wanted to see to what extent this giant mummy was afraid of the Chaos Hive. Normally, they would intentionally avoid the Chaos Hive when they roamed around, but to what extent would they avoid it?
Perhaps this sounds a bit abstract. For example, when a person is walking normally, he will definitely avoid a sewage pit or a swamp. But at a critical moment, this person can step into the sewage pit without hesitation, but he cannot jump into the swamp ahead which brings the risk of death.
After Du Yuqi tested the bottom line of the giant mummy, if it was very afraid of the Chaos Insect Nest, then Du Yuqi would undoubtedly have an extra way out. Unfortunately, his good luck ended. After Du Yuqi escaped into the Chaos Insect Nest, the giant mummy just hesitated for a moment, then let out a low roar, and continued to stride forward.
Seeing this situation, Du Yuqi sighed in his heart, but immediately cheered up. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he retreated instead of advancing and rushed towards the giant mummy, because Du Yuqi had noticed a detail: although the giant mummy rushed in, it still avoided the pillars in the chaos insect nest when walking, and it was obviously afraid.
The distance between the two was closing rapidly. Because there was a clear difference in size between the two, if the giant mummy wanted to attack Du Yuqi with its arms, it would have to bend down, so it chose a simpler and more direct way, which was to kick directly from the front!
After this kick, Du Yuqi felt like dust and sand were blowing in his face, as if an extremely strong sandstorm came out of nowhere, and his vision was blurred.
Looking closely, after the giant mummy entered the attacking state, its body seemed to expand by another one-third. Du Yuqi could only reach his thigh, which looked like the size difference between an adult and a baby.
However, at this time, Du Yuqi was determined to fight him head-on. He suddenly raised the Bone of Hess and then suddenly drew a sword from it!
At the moment of drawing the sword, a strange black light appeared on the Soul-Splitting Blade that had just been drawn out. Then, as the entire blade was drawn out, the black light suddenly became stronger, and then condensed into a three-toed giant claw in the air, with clear scales on it, sweeping forward! !
