Coco's affirmation made Xu Xin take a deep breath.
He turned around and looked behind him again, and searched carefully, but still could not find the giant beetle.
"Did you hear it wrong?" He rubbed Coco's little head and said.
"Oh oh!" Coco cried out twice in dissatisfaction, indicating that she couldn't have heard it wrong.
This is really... outrageous.
Why did the giant beetle come out of the river and remind him that the river was dangerous
This is too weird.
etc.
He thought carefully about the appearance of the giant beetle.
"Huh? There seems to be no blood streaks on the body of that giant beetle?" Xu Xin frowned and recalled.
Is it that there are no blood streaks, or is it that it is too dark and the blood streaks cannot be seen
"嘤!" Hearing Xu Xin's mumbling, Coco also cried out and nodded her little head.
"You didn't see the blood streak either."
Xu Xin looked behind him again.
A giant bug without blood streaks.
Is it only the bloodline of giant beasts
He had only seen three creatures with the bloodline of giant beasts and powerful giant beast bloodline.
One of them is the giant anaconda in the center of his lake.
One is a giant crocodile at the bottom of the stream that I haven’t seen for a long time.
The last one is the father of the two little pangolins in the family, the giant pangolin.
Here are these.
Among them, although the giant anaconda in the center of the lake showed a red dot in the area and seemed to be quite hostile to him, every time it surfaced, it would stare at him for a long time, but it had never hurt him.
The only time he hurt someone was when he attacked Ma Hongwei, who had become a mutant.
Not to mention the Creek Crocodile, which doesn't even show up as a red dot on the map. It's a completely neutral unit, and it has helped him a lot several times.
But after the rainy season, it disappeared.
Although the giant pangolin did not have mutated blood, it mixed with a group of mutated pangolins and gave birth to two children with his conquered pangolin concubine. They only had the blood of the giant beast but no blood pattern mutation.
The three can be said to be completely different, and the only thing they have in common is that these giant beasts have no blood pattern mutations and have not caused him any harm so far.
Could it be that the properties of this giant black beetle are the same as theirs
Or, just like the giant crocodile at the bottom of the stream, can we make friends with it
…If only the map could be used underground, he would know whether the beetle was a friend or foe.
Never mind. It's gone now anyway, so let's just keep moving forward.
He passed through a passage in the mutant vines, which was opened by the wings of a giant beetle, and walked to the river.
The mutated vines around are very different from the mutated vines on the ground.
If it was a mutated vine on the ground, it would probably attack Xu Xin like crazy at this moment.
But these mutated vines in front of them really had no desire to attack Xu Xin and Coco.
There was no change in the state, it was just like water grass, swaying slightly.
He reached the river easily.
The river is very wide, more than fifty meters.
He looked downstream and toward the source of the river.
The downstream extends so far that there is no end in sight.
The giant rhinoceros was just about three or four hundred meters away from Xu Xin downstream of the river.
It was full at this time and was lying by the river drinking water.
The source of the river is also so far away that the end is out of sight.
In other words, if he wanted to reach his destination, to the thick bundle of vines that penetrated straight into the ground, he had to cross the river.
The anaconda scale armor set was still in his backpack.
Wearing this suit, swimming over there is no problem.
However, this river...
Surely it can't be safe
Moreover, Xu Xin was also very concerned about what the giant black beetle had just expressed to them.
There are dangers in the river, do not enter it.
What dangers are there in the river
Xu Xin looked into the river through the water.
Although the river water is slightly red, it is indeed very clear.
Crystal clear.
The bottom of the lake is also covered with pebbles that have been smoothed by the water, and they are all blue-level.
What surprised Xu Xin was that there were absolutely no living creatures in the lake.
Not to mention the giant fish he had imagined, there wasn't even any small fish or shrimp.
It's just a clear, slightly reddish river.
There are no living creatures inside
Didn’t that giant beetle just come out from inside
He observed again and confirmed that there were no fish, shrimp or other living creatures in the lake.
Since there are no living things, where is the danger
Water
Is the water poisonous
It shouldn’t be poisonous, right…
He turned and glanced at the rhino downstream.
The rhino had finished drinking water by the river and was lying there taking a nap.
Even from such a distance, Xu Xin could hear its snoring.
The mutated vines around it were still attacking it, but it seemed that they could only tickle the rhino.
Instead, the rhinoceros kicked its foot and another vine died.
At least this rhino seems to be fine.
"Coco, is there any danger in this lake?" Xu Xin asked Coco in his arms.
“嘤…?” Coco tilted her little head.
It seems that Coco doesn't know either.
There was no choice but to squat down and reach out to touch the red lake water lightly.
Contaminated water (gray): Water that has been infected by unknown forces is not a good thing for survivors. Drinking it will cause irreversible damage and changes to the body. It is best not to drink it unless you are dying of thirst.
Xu Xin opened his eyes slightly.
This lake water is different from the contaminated meat.
The introduction to the contaminated meat clearly told him that it was highly poisonous and that any survivor would die if they ate it.
But this water told him that it was not a good thing, and it was drinkable, but it would cause irreversible damage.
As for what this irreversible damage change is, it is quite obvious.
Mutations.
He scooped up a stream of water.
The water is very cold and has a faint fragrance.
This is the smell when the red mist is very light.
"Bing!" Keke's scream interrupted Xu Xin's thoughts, "Bing!"
At this moment, a sense of crisis came from behind!
Xu Xin immediately shook off the water in his hands, picked up the halberd, and slashed it fiercely behind him!
"Card!"
Before he saw anything, he felt something being cut in his hand.
Kill the blood-veined vines and get points: 50 points!
Kill the blood-thorn vines and get points: 60 points!
It's a mutant vine!
The mutated vines behind him suddenly attacked him!
What happened?!
There was no time to think, he dodged the attack of the vines and swung the halberd to block the attack of the vines!
The surrounding vines, as long as they could reach him, attacked him continuously!
Fortunately, vitality continued to flow into his body along the halberd, so he did not feel tired, but instead became more courageous as the battle went on.
"Bing!" In order not to hinder his attack, Coco jumped to his feet, "Bing bing bing!"
What's wrong
Xu Xin looked in the direction Coco pointed.
This is…
He saw that there were about dozens of insects gathered there, and all of them were staring at her position, with the intention of attacking him!
What happened?!
Why did the vines and insect swarms suddenly attack him!
What is going on!
What did he just do
All the vines around him that could get close to him had been basically cut down by him. He cut off another vine, looked at the gathering swarm of insects, took a step back slightly, his eyes solemn.
The bodies of these insects are often three or four meters long.
One or two is fine, but a group of insects...
He has no way of dealing with it!
At times like this, he still envied Wen Guixin's abilities!
what to do?!
Jump into the water
No, you can’t jump in the water!
What had he just done to cause these bugs and vines to attack
He scooped up a handful of water!
That’s right, as soon as he touched the water and scooped up the water, these vines and insects began to attack!
As soon as he touched the water, he immediately became a target!
If he jumps down and gets his whole body wet, wouldn't he be in even greater trouble
what to do
It’s definitely not possible to match it!
what to do
Coco had climbed into his arms again, trembling a little.
That’s right!
Increased jumping ability!
He can use the boost in his jumping ability to jump directly to the other side!
Although his watch had no signal and could not contact other people, he could click on it and choose to amplify!
He quickly glanced back at the river behind him.
A width of more than fifty meters.
…too wide!
no!
It’s not that he can’t jump 50 meters, but he needs a running start!
There are vines all around him and a swarm of insects behind him. Where would he get a chance to run
At this moment, a sharp cry of insects was heard from the swarm, and a group of insects as big as cars rushed towards him!
Xu Xintong's eyes shrank suddenly, he tightly grasped the halberd, and with his other hand he took out the already dim energy core from his backpack.
This energy core will have a repelling effect on blood-marked mutant creatures.
However, the blood patterns on the insect vines around here have only slightly mutated, and instead have a strong bloodline of giant beasts, so the effect of the energy core fragments is probably minimal!
Fortunately, the moment he took out the core, the surrounding swarm of insects paused for a moment.
Then, continue crawling towards him.
But this time, they slowed down, slowly surrounded him, and then confronted him.
Are we really going to face off head on
Xu Xin didn't dare to release Yin Wang and Mimi.
He was afraid of attracting the rhino that was resting a few hundred meters away.
He can still fight against the insects, but if he attracts the rhinoceros, he will be reborn right where he is!
Just as his mind was spinning rapidly, calculating whether his current abilities allowed him to directly jump across the river, a cry of insects suddenly came from behind the swarm.
It was different from the previous insect cry that initiated the charge; it was not the same insect cry.
Also, it sounds familiar.
"嘤!" Coco poked out her little head and cried out.
ah!
It was the cry of the giant black beetle just now!
After this cry, an astonishing scene happened.
The swarm of insects surrounding it, after hearing the cry of the giant black beetle, slowly retreated a few steps, then turned around and scattered!
Within a dozen seconds, the swarm of insects in front of them completely disappeared.
Only the mutated vines that were attacked and trampled were left on the ground.
“… What’s going on here?”
"Hmm?" Coco tilted her head to show that she didn't understand.
