I’m Not Shouldering This Blame

Chapter 100: Brave

Views:

Abandoned world has no distinction between day and night, resting in "night" only by feeling.

This night is destined to be unsettled, the giant worm tumbling and rubbing on the ground, roaring endlessly.

The special forces vigilant in the underground cave listened vigilantly to the movement above. The skinny Zhao Wen and Li Fei did not rest, their eyes were wide open in the dark. After thinking a lot, finally the sultry discomfort brought their thoughts back to reality.

- Gotta go back alive first.

The ground tremors are getting bigger and bigger.

"boom!"

"Cough cough!" All the special forces who lay down with their guns and clothes closed jumped up, and the dirt on the top of the cave fell on their faces.

Jian Hua also woke up, and opened his eyes and couldn't see the situation in the cave. The soil in the northwest is relatively dry, and the free dust is scattered everywhere, making everyone cover their mouths and noses.

"What's wrong with the bug?"

"Quick, bring supplies and withdraw to the passage!" the captain said sharply.

Everyone was busy for a while, and then they carried a round of items. The thin man carrying the battery light saw that the car bumper supporting the roof of the hole was shifting.

"Not good! Let's go, don't worry about things!"

Followed by a rock smashed at the thin man's feet.

The roof of the cave was suddenly covered with flames, like a red brocade, and like an upside-down sea of fire. The dazzling light was refracted by the smoke and dust, and the outline of the head of a giant insect appeared behind.

"Block the passageway!"

The last one who escaped into the passage was the captain. He jumped forward, and immediately the special forces who had been waiting for a long time on their side tried their best to fill the seat sofa.

There was a layer of ice in the gap, and a lot of mycelium was pasted.

The mycelium, which had been without food for a long time, couldn't help gnawing at the thin man's ice-type ability. When the giant worm rushed over, the mushroom with the ice slag slid directly into its mouth, collided with the teeth, and made a strange noise.

"Steady, don't panic, keep backing!" The captain instructed calmly.

The width of the aisle is limited, and the giant insect smashed through the broken car seat, its head protruded into the aisle, and the stench came head-on.

Humans could not resist the lethality of this smell. In addition, the air circulation in the cave was limited, and the "poisonous gas" spewed by the giant insects shook the captain's body and almost fell over.

The fat mushroom cap plugged the giant insect's mouth.

It angrily used its teeth to grind foreign objects, the distorted mushrooms turned into mycelium, and then the mask turned into a mask to cover the mouth of the giant insect.

More hyphae grow along the wall of the cave and firmly entangle the head of the giant insect. They merge with their companions on the tentacles. Because of insufficient energy, the mushrooms devour each other - the hyphae on the tentacles are intermittent and scattered to fill up new ones. mushroom net rope.

"Suck my powers!"

Li Fei urged the flame to approach the passage, the temperature rose, and everyone was sweating.

The mycelium unceremoniously extracted the flame energy, and the thin man filled an ice blade with it.

Alternating between hot and cold, the giant worm slammed into the cave frantically, and the captain, who was supported by the crowd, slapped himself hard, only to recover from the muddle caused by the stench, and said feebly, "Withdraw!"

"However, when we get back to the ground, there is nowhere to hide from the giant insects..."

"The passageway will collapse! After the earth-type power user died, the firmness of the underground hole decreased."

If you don't go, you will be buried alive in the dirt.

But leaving the cover of the cave, the giant worm can chase its prey to the fullest. When everyone was making a conflicting choice, they were suddenly pushed aside by the mushrooms that emerged from their feet.

"Tie the worms to death in the cave!" Jian Hua activated his abilities, and the mycelium spread into the "open room" that was smashed by the giant worm, growing along the giant worm's body.

"Crack... Crack..."

In the smoke and dust, only Li Fei could see what happened.

The giant worm's teeth are falling out.

"Wait, aim for its mouth!" Li Fei attributed the results to the "baptism" of alternating hot and cold.

The thin man filled several ice picks in the direction Li Fei pointed.

"Come up, the passage can't hold anymore!" The leader of the special forces team urged them from behind.

"Five more minutes!" Jian Hua didn't look back, the mushrooms quickly withstood the falling pieces of soil, and now only some sand slipped from the edge of the mushroom cap.

Without worries, Li Fei was able to control the attack frequency of flames and ice more calmly. He kept sounding to remind the thin man, and the cave was full of abnormal noises.

With the size of a giant worm, it can swallow three people in one bite. It is estimated that the powerful force when the big mouth is closed can crush people into meat patties. Now pulling the teeth can at least ensure that the clothes will not be bitten by the flesh and blood when escaping. A layer was torn off dripping, causing them to lose their combat effectiveness due to serious injuries.

The giant worm finally felt bad, it struggled back desperately, and the passage vibrated even more violently.

In the end, the mushroom completely supported the falling sand, and the giant worm also "pulled" its head back. It roared for a while at the mushroom that was rushing to squeeze out of the passage, and began to drill its head down.

This bug also wants to fight in the tunnel and attack them from the ground

"Jump on the mushrooms!"

Everyone followed suit, even Li Fei and Zhao Wen, although everyone's mood was very complicated after hugging the mushroom stalk.

In order to stabilize the ground, large and small mushrooms grew a layer on the ground of the passage. Now everyone is completely in a "mushroom house", and mushroom caps are everywhere.

Not to mention the northwest, even in the tropical rainforest, this kind of scene is rarely seen.

Li Fei condensed a flame in his hand, just waiting for Jian Hua's ability feedback to "see" where the giant insect was about to break out of the ground, and give the giant insect a ball of high-temperature flame.

"It's digging the dirt...not this way, it's not trying to dig a tunnel, it's..."

Jian Hua suddenly paused, and everyone could hear the movement of digging outside, as well as the obvious sound of swallowing.

The thin man thought of something, his face became ugly, his hands were fisted on the cap, and the mycelium shook, directly entangling him. Jian Hua waved his hand to disperse the thin man surrounded by mycelium, and said to everyone in a deep voice, "It's eating the corpses you buried."

The captain showed a regretful expression.

Burying people in the hole is to believe that after the incident, even if all the people here are dead, the state can judge the giant worm based on the wounds on the corpse, and also "bury" the backup of the mission diary.

If you know that the giant worm will smash into the hole and devour the corpse, it is better to let the fire-type ability person cremate the dead.

The giant insect did not hit the mushroom at the entrance again, it slowly left.

"It only swallowed the power user who just died. You mentioned earlier that it also buried an unfortunate victim?" Jian Hua turned his head and asked.

The captain nodded and described to Jian Hua where the next two bodies were buried.

The giant worm was not far away but did not find it. It seems that the dead power user still has undissipated power. After a few days of death, it is gone. The giant bug has shown several times that it is very sensitive to the strength of the power user. .

Li Fei was still thinking deeply when Jian Hua suddenly shouted, "Be careful!"

The giant worm pretended to "leave after eating". It circled and suddenly launched an attack. Its head slammed into the cave above Li Fei, and the mushrooms collapsed a little under the pressure.

Mycelium scrambled to wrap Li Fei, as if he was wearing a protective suit, only showing his eyes, nose and mouth, not even a single strand of hair.

The mycelium isolates the power fluctuations, and the double effect of the mushroom house and the mycelium protective clothing allows the giant insects whose tentacles are not very good to shift direction and attack the cave above Jian Hua's head.

Jian Hua calmly put on protective clothing for himself and the thin man.

The giant insect that lost its target location angrily hit the ground. Just when the captain was worried about whether the mushroom house could hold up, the giant insect left angrily because he did not want to be entangled in the mycelium.

Afraid that it couldn't think of it and would kill another carbine, the three of them could only continue to wear mycelium protective suits.

Under the light of the fireball, they looked like mummies.

The special forces with guns: ... let's put out the flames, the mummy sitting on the huge mushroom is almost invisible.

They touched the mushrooms around them, and they realized that mushrooms, a "supporting ability", were very good. They could be used as "building materials" when they could wrap around and stick together.

"The giant worm will definitely come again. Seventy percent of the cave has collapsed, and we are trapped here." The captain said with a serious expression, "If it is desperate and collapses here again, we can only go to the ground."

"Can mushrooms grow in open spaces?" Slim asked about the construction speed of "temporary shelters".

Jian Hua shook his head gently: "There is a strange wind outside."

Rolling from the ground, the mushrooms can be blown into filaments at one time, how to resist the attack of giant insects

The hearts of the people sank.

The suspended fireball hangs in the passage, and the mushrooms around it are desperately sticking out mycelium to probe the fireball, showing their greedy nature. Jian Hua prevented them from swallowing the "light bulb", and the mycelium was unwilling to go away. Many white threads were just "sticky" near the fireball, making the quietly burning fireball look like the eggs of alien creatures, and it was unnecessary to make science fiction movies. Computer synthesized.

Li Fei found that he was still in the mood to appreciate this "weird" beauty.

Filmmakers are always unable to resist the impact of excellent images and perspective impact...

The magic eye can't see through the things behind the hyphae. Li Fei doesn't know Jian Hua's current expression, but he feels that Jian Hua is not as anxious as others, and the indifference is back, as if he doesn't care about so many people, including himself. life and death.

If it was in the past, Li Fei would feel that Jian Hua was difficult to approach. After getting to know Jian Hua through various "deep" ways, Li Fei guessed that his lover was distracted now.

— What details were overlooked

Li Fei frowned slightly, recalling the process of the giant insect attack. After half a minute, he blinked and asked cautiously, "Is there mycelium on the corpse?"

Everyone was quiet, and the thin man suddenly realized that their abilities were useless on the body surface of the giant worm, and the giant worm had a double oral structure, but the mycelium was eaten by the giant worm, which was different! Does it also have steel and iron bones in its body

"There's only a tiny wisp. It fell from the corner of the tent while the giant worm was digging up the body." Jian Hua said absentmindedly, closing his eyes as if he was feeling something, "It's disconnected from me, I don't know. Current situation… "

"boom!"

There was a loud noise again from the top of the head. It was not that the roof of the cave was hit, but that something heavy hit the ground, and the giant worm squeaked for a long time.

The captain immediately decided to go out to check.

"I'm coming!" The thin man volunteered, and he also had a mycelium protective suit on him.

The thin man who climbed to the ground through the passage that the mushrooms gave up, saw the hole in the sky at a glance—the giant worm had slipped out of it, the huge body twitched, and piled up on the road into a mountain of meat, which could directly See the swirling void, from which a manic wind blows.

"No, we have to plug that hole!"

"… "

Everyone who heard the sound and climbed out was stunned.

The sky near the void was already pitch black, and the black area was still expanding. Although I didn't know what it was, it was not a good sign.

The giant worm's body bounced like an electric shock, twitching and twitching irregularly, causing earthquake-like shaking.

It has a total length of several hundred meters, and the rear half of its body has a triangular hook, which is like a leg and something that stabilizes the body. Now some of the hooks are curled up, some are open, and they are waving uncontrollably.

The giant worm's hard shell was actually scratched out by these hooks with white marks, and the most serious part has been peeled and fleshy, exuding iron-gray body fluids.

Jian Hua urged more mycelia to penetrate through the wound to kill the monster as soon as possible.

"Blocked?" Can mushrooms grow twenty meters tall and stand up to the sky

"No, there is a strange substance in the cavity that swept away the hyphae." Jian Hua's face was pale, and what he said was half-truth. He felt that the hyphae voluntarily got into the cavity, just like those who traveled through space for food. Act the same.

Seeing that there are more and more black areas in the sky, and the strong wind blows the three "mummies" to reveal their true faces, they can only drill back into the ground again—

"Wang Wang Wang!"

In the wind and sand at the end of the road, a short figure suddenly appeared.

Corgis have short legs but run fast.

It screamed at the sky, the black area suddenly froze, and then quickly receded like a tide, and finally the hole began to shrink. When Corgi ran in front of the crowd, the hole had completely disappeared. On this road, only the other side was lying With a dying giant worm.

"Wang?" Corky's nose moved, and it recognized Jian Hua. It stuck out its tongue and licked Jian Hua enthusiastically.

Li Fei: …

Crowd: …

It's hard to describe the feeling of being saved by a dog.
