In a hidden crypt 100 meters deep underground, a new insect nest is slowly being bred.
The remaining 23,000 insect army was dispatched by Billis in batches, risking being wiped out by the elves, rushing to the surface to plunder and eat blood. Although they brought back a lot of jungle creatures, their own losses were not small, losing 1 to 2 thousand insect troops almost every day.
According to this speed, within ten days Billis will face the dilemma of no insects available!
The remaining six demonized praying mantises were kept by his side every step of the way, which finally gave him some foundation of high-level war insects. And on the far edge of the west coast, there are also some scattered insect army and demonized praying mantis wandering into every corner of the magic forest to hide.
Once this place is lost, even if Billis' body is killed by the elves, he can be resurrected again with the help of the king worm hidden in another worm army. However, the price paid for such a resurrection is too great, and it is very likely that his strength will shrink to the level of a first-level elementary school.
So if it is not necessary, he is not willing to use this method to escape the enemy's encirclement!
After trying a few days ago, the worm witch Billis had given up the illusion of asking for help from Mrs. Mary. It was because of his reckless request for help that the Spear of Vengeance traced him by relying on the weak elemental fluctuations.
In that battle, he was even forced to give up 10,000 bug troops to serve as bait to lure the enemy away.
Unfortunately, the magic forest is the home of the forest elves after all.
Here, any little sign or clue can attract the attention of the elves. Therefore, Billis' arduous escape was destined to be so rough and bumpy, and he was almost blocked in the temporary residence by the third-level elf several times.
Chased and fled with that vengeful spear, Ai Jiaye, and played a game of cat and mouse for more than 6,000 miles. So far, Billis has not officially met her face to face. But even so, his worm army has dropped from 170,000 in its heyday to more than 20,000 now, and the 1st-tier mid-level war insect demonized mantis has also dropped from 27 to the current 6.
The heartache and blood and tears in this are hard to understand and understand if you are not the person involved!
Here, under this strange Eagle's Nest Mountain, although Billys the Worm Witch stays at home, he can still get a general idea of the situation outside through the hidden Euglena.
It can be seen that his previous reckless behavior has completely angered those elves. Every day, the elven airriders patrolling around Eagle's Nest Mountain never stopped at all. And in the jungle, it was guarded by the flying sentinels of the elves and the druids disguised as small animals like an iron wall.
Without sufficient blood food, it would be difficult to hatch a steady stream of insect troops, and without high-quality flesh and blood, it would be difficult to breed powerful war insects. However, at this moment, the surroundings were surrounded by enemies, and any swarms sent out on the ground would never return, but the worm witch Billis still did not give up the hope of escaping.
Taking advantage of the gap before the encirclement of the elves closed, Billis dispatched a large number of insect troops to snatch back some blood food by chance. And using these blood meals, together with the sacrifices of some ordinary swarms, Billis finally bred some zerg with special abilities in the new worm nest - the burrower.
This is a strange insect that looks like a large earthworm. Its body is twelve meters long, and its front end is densely packed with countless sharp teeth in concentric circles. These sawtooths like a roller knife array extend all the way into its black hole, and they are the basic tools for it to devour and crush everything.
The burrower is not shy about meat, as long as it is able to absorb organic matter, its terrifying stomach can crush it and digest it.
Under the command of Billis, the swarm also had the ability to burrow into the ground, but their evolved body structure was still dominated by creatures that tore and ate flesh and blood. Using them to dig holes in the ground to escape, not only is the movement too loud, but also the speed is surprisingly slow.
Therefore, in order to dig a way out, Bliss had to sacrifice the worm swarm a little, using their flesh and carapace to breed this special burrower.
When the first digger broke through the nest and appeared in front of Billis, his excitement was no less than the moment he successfully advanced to the rank of bug witch. It's a pity that he didn't wait for him to take a closer look at this earth digging insect. In a certain insect path half a mile away, more than a dozen insects were killed in one fell swoop.
The worm witch Billis sighed helplessly, and then grinned grinningly.
Those druids became more and more daring these days, breaking into this underground labyrinth again and again, looking for Bliss's traces in the winding worm ways and underground cracks.
Among them, some are combat teams composed of Tier 1 druids. As long as Billis sent out the remaining six demonized praying mantises, it would be possible to teach these druids some unforgettable lessons in such a small space where it was difficult to use power.
However, in many druid squads, there are some level 2 druids hidden.
If the demonized mantis encounters them, the chance of successfully escaping back is less than 30%.
Therefore, whenever the insect soldiers acting as eyeliners on the outside were killed by the druids, it was Billis' turn to hesitate, wondering whether he should send the demonized mantis to encircle them.
This kind of torment tortured him almost every day, almost every moment!
In the previous battles, when the enemy's situation was unknown, Billis could only choose to give up the counterattack bitterly. The main reason is that he has worries about his future. He must keep a soldier in his hands who can protect him.
Now that there is an earth digger, there is hope of escaping from the sky, and the thinking and mentality of the bug witch Billis has also undergone a huge change. The previous escape from the Jedi has become the current one that can be advanced or retreated, and Billis has the idea of having a good time with the enemy.
As a result, the worm army, which had tended to be conservative and passively defensive in the past few days, once again poured into the tunnels and worm ways in large numbers, and began to continuously attack the druid combat teams from all directions.
As the fighting intensity increased, some information that was not clear before rained into Billis's mind. When the battle situation of the entire underground labyrinth was presented before his eyes at a glance, he quickly chose a battle opponent for himself.
This is a combat team composed of three Tier 1 druids.
One of them transformed into a giant python with a length of more than ten meters, responsible for exploring and opening the way ahead. And the last two, one transformed into a giant gopher, sniffing the breath in the tunnel with its thin nostrils fluttering, and the other transformed into a toad covered in pimples, lying on the giant python with a huge The eyeballs monitor the surrounding movement.
Along the way, the sour and foul smell in the underground tunnel made the three druids sick to death. Although they have changed into the appearance of monsters and possessed the power of monsters, their hearts still belong to humans.
Therefore, for the harsh and filthy environment underground, they just endure it, but they can't like it!
The three formed a small team. The giant python was good at sensing the slight vibrations of the ground, the flash mouse could sniff out strange smells, and the poison dart frog had excellent dynamic perception. They complement each other, but also cooperate with each other tacitly.
While silently exploring the forks and directions of the tunnel in front of him, he used natural magic to leave special magical marks along the way. Thanks to their progress, most of the underground labyrinth dug out by the swarm under Eagle's Nest Mountain has been lit up.
Perhaps in less than two days, they will be able to thoroughly investigate this intricate underground labyrinth, with forks, wormways, and branch corridors criss-crossing. At that time, the entire underground labyrinth will be covered with magic marks, and it will not be so easy for those insects to rely on the darkness and chaos underground.
As long as the figure of the worm witch can be found, with the encirclement of several second-level druid masters, that hateful guy will never want to escape from here again!
...
The dark and deep narrow tunnel meanders in front of you.
It's dark, and without darkvision, surface creatures can't see anything here.
The tunnels here are no more than one meter high and wide. If those elf archers came down, they would probably have to crawl forward one by one with sad faces. If it were those elf warriors who were good at wielding two swords, they might not even be able to draw out their swords here, let alone exert their combat power.
So in terms of adaptability to the battlefield, Druids are more suitable than other fighters.
"No...we seem to be surrounded by enemies!"
The giant python, which was leading the snake, suddenly stopped walking, and used its keen body sense to detect the familiar rustling noises in all the worm ways and tunnels within half a mile around.
It seems, possibly, probably, that a large number of insect troops are rushing towards their position through the winding tunnels from all directions. Raids of this magnitude had been rare since the Swarm had suffered several serious blows.
"How about we retreat first and report the changes of the swarm?" The flashing mouse raised its body, and the furry gray mouse showed a humanized hesitant expression on its face.
At this moment, there are eleven druid teams searching for the worm witch underground, and only five of them have level 2 druid masters hiding in them. Unfortunately, they didn't have one!
Therefore, when the Flash Mouse noticed the restlessness of the insect swarm in the distance, it couldn't help but cringe in fear.
After all, in this narrow and enclosed space, the combat power they can display is still very limited. None of those powerful natural spells could be cast, otherwise the collapsed mud and sand would be enough to kill them.
"Withdrawing rashly, those insects will definitely take the opportunity to destroy the mark we left. In this way, our whole day's work will be in vain. We will not advance or retreat at all. Thor, go to the right side of the road, 30 meters away from us There is a stone hall in the place. Although the space is not big, it is enough for us to fight in it. I have already sent a message for help. As long as we linger here for a while, the surrounding teams will definitely come to support us... "In the end, it was still The oldest poison dart frog croaked and settled his strategy.
The three-person team did not hesitate.
Both the flash rat and the poison dart frog jumped on the giant python, and under his load, they quickly swam forward along the dark tunnel, and rushed straight into the rightmost passage at the three-way intersection that suddenly appeared. .
They were almost a body away from them. There was a dense rustling sound from far to near, and a dense swarm of insects rushed out from various passages and fork roads, and then followed the giant python without any hesitation. That right aisle.
All of a sudden, the sound of dense carapaces colliding and colliding filled the entire underground passage!
