Chapter 279 Disappearance
Hu Jin took precautions and carefully approached the body of the Gold-Eating Locust, immediately smelling a burnt aroma.
"It would be strange if it didn't die." Hu Jin muttered, glancing at the huge head that was more than a meter tall lying on the ground, its ferocious mouthparts inspiring fear.
With a heavy heart, Hu Jin raised his hand and inserted the specially made short blade into the gap of the skull of the Gold-Eating Locust, then cut and pried along the joints of the bone plates.
At this moment, the others had also gathered around, but following Yu Xing's prompting, they did not approach the corpse of the Gold-Eating Locust, but simply stood at a distance watching Hu Jin busy himself.
Hu Jin fiddled with it for a long time, sweating profusely and his hands almost blistered, but he still couldn't pry open the skull of the Gold-Eating Locust.
"Damn, this is outrageous!" Hu Jin cursed angrily, then turned to Yu Xing and said, "You come here."
Yu Xing did not move an inch. He simply used the rock spikes to fix the head of the Gold-Eating Locust in place, and then condensed the Armor-Piercing Heavy Rock Spear to continuously bombard the seams of the bone plates.
A moment later, with a crisp "click" sound, the massive head plates of the Gold-Eating Locust were finally opened.
At that moment, a sudden change occurred. A dark shadow suddenly flew out from the skull opened by the Gold-Eating Locust, moving with incredible speed, and pounced directly on Hu Jin's face.
Although Hu Jin didn't take Yu Xing's words seriously, he was secretly on guard. The moment he saw the shadowy figure, he immediately prepared to use a jump to create distance.
However, before Hu Jin could release his magic, he seemed to hear a sharp screech that rushed into his mind, causing his consciousness to blur and his teleportation magic to fail.
The dark figure pierced straight through the Azure Ring's protection and embedded itself in the Ice Lion Armor.
At that moment, a cold light flashed, and Yu Xing's Armor-Piercing Heavy Rock Spear, which he had been preparing for a long time, slashed down, splitting the black shadow in two.
Half of it was still nailed to Hu Jin's Ice Lion Armor, while the other half fell to Hu Jin's feet and rolled a distance away.
puff.
Hu Jin fell straight to the ground, the Azure Ring and the Ice Lion Armor completely dissipated. Everyone rushed over and saw that Hu Jin's face was covered in blood and he had lost consciousness.
The medical mage from Yue Wencheng's team rushed forward to check on Hu Jin's condition and found that Hu Jin only had a puncture wound on his forehead and half of his skull was pierced, but his brain was not damaged.
The reason for losing consciousness is likely due to a psychological attack.
A few seconds later, Hu Jin opened his eyes with a trembling voice, feeling as if a bunch of flies were buzzing in his head, and his head was throbbing with pain.
However, it's good that you're alive; your spirits will gradually recover.
"It seems the mental-type magical beast isn't the Gold-Eating Locust, but this little thing." Yu Xing squatted down, pieced the black shadow back together, and called everyone over to take a look: "So the magical source in the Gold-Eating Locust's corpse was this magical beast. It's quite a unique little thing. Come and see, does anyone recognize it? What kind of magical beast is this?"
The crowd gathered around and saw a monster lying at Yu Xing's feet, broken in two. Its overall shape resembled some kind of bee, about the size of two fists put together, with short red stripes on its abdomen and back, and its stinger like a jet-black cone.
"This thing looks like a combination of a fire wasp and a black stinging wasp, but neither of these magical beasts are this small." Meng Lixin looked at it, thought carefully for a few seconds, and then said, "I really don't remember any magical beast like this."
"Judging from the feedback of magic perception, this thing should be a mid-level magical beast. But for a mid-level magical beast to be able to break through the Azure Ring and the Ice Lion Armor, and it's a mental magical beast at that, is truly extraordinary." Yu Xing held Hu Jin's short blade, rummaging through the corpse of the bee-like magical beast, and clicked his tongue in amazement.
At that moment, a streak of blue light streaked across the sky, then swooped down as it passed over the crowd, landing beside them and retracting its blue feather wings. It was Wen Shanhai.
Upon landing, Wen Shanhai first glanced at the body of the Gold-Eating Locust and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked around and found that although there were three people lying on the ground, everyone's expressions were relatively calm, so no one should have been killed. He was in a great mood.
"Brother Wen, you've come at the right time. Let's see if you've seen this magical beast before." Yu Xing greeted Wen Shanhai immediately upon seeing him.
Upon hearing this, Wen Shanhai's gaze fell on the bee corpse beside Yu Xing. He glanced at it casually and said indifferently, "Never seen it before."
It's good that the Gold-Eating Locust is dead; as for a mid-level magical beast, Wen Shanhai doesn't care.
"Brother Wen, this thing is a mental-type magical beast, and it lives inside the head of the Gold-Eating Locust." Yu Xing briefly explained the process of hunting the Gold-Eating Locust and discovering this bee-like magical beast.
Having understood the reason, Wen Shanhai immediately took it seriously. He squatted down next to Yu Xing, studied the beast carefully for a while, and then said earnestly, "I have never seen such a magical beast before."
"So, we've probably discovered a new type of magical beast?" Hu Jin suppressed his severe headache, a surge of excitement rising within him.
If they are the first mage to discover a new monster, they will have the right to name it.
Being able to name a monster according to one's own ideas is quite appealing.
Unfortunately, there were too many people around, and Hu Jin didn't get all the credit for hunting down the Gold-Eating Locust. It's still unknown who will win the naming rights.
"It's hard to say. After all, there are so many interdimensional passages in the world, and there are just too many kinds of magical beasts. We can only recognize a few. Maybe they haven't appeared in China, but they have already appeared in interdimensional passages in other countries." Yu Xing was not optimistic.
Although everyone here is a top student, none of us would dare say we know all of Warcraft.
"Just report it. The Candlelight Army will handle the details," Wen Shanhai said.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Wen Shanhai took out his signal gun, replaced it with a green flare, and prepared to notify the others who had not yet arrived that the Gold-Eating Locusts had been hunted down and the mission was over.
Having only been in the Minshan Insect Bridge for two days, the task has already been completed, which is extremely efficient.
Of course, luck plays a big part, since the main difficulty in hunting the Gold-Eating Locust is finding it.
Before Wen Shanhai could fire, another streak of blue light flashed across the sky and flew down immediately after spotting the group.
"Yellow Crow, you've come at the right time. Let's see if you've seen this magical beast before," Yu Xing called out again upon seeing the newcomers.
Hu Jin curled his lip. Yu Xing's eagerness to study this bee corpse showed that he was indeed coveting the naming rights.
The yellow crow glanced at the dead bees, indicating that it had never seen them before.
So Yu Xing told Huang Ya the story of the bee corpse again.
Hearing this, Huang Ya couldn't help but frown, because this scene gave him a sense of déjà vu.
When Bai Yu brought Wang Yi and the others here for training, they happened to encounter a group of Frostswans, Flame Sparrows, and Azure Phoenixes.
There is also a mental-type magical beast, the Nen Insect, hidden among these three magical beasts.
Is Warcraft finally starting to allow group play?
"Hiding inside the head of the Gold-Eating Locust, is this some kind of new symbiotic relationship? Or is the Gold-Eating Locust actually controlled by this bee-like magical beast?" Huang Ya asked, then looked around, counted the number of people, and then asked curiously:
"Where are Wang Yi and Dai Lan?"
"I didn't see them. Gu Bei and I used warp drive to get here, so we should have been the first to arrive," Yu Xing said.
Meng Lixin nodded and said, "We discovered the Gold-Eating Locusts first, then Yu Xing and Gu Bei came to provide support, Wen Shanhai just arrived recently, and you were the last to arrive."
"He probably didn't dare to face the high-level magical beasts and secretly hid away," Hu Jin sneered.
Huang Ya frowned even more deeply. He knew Wang Yi well; he was definitely not the type to desert in the face of battle. So he said, "When we saw the signal flare, Wang Yi and Dai Lan immediately chose to use warp to come and support us. I followed closely behind with the Azure Feather Wind Wings, but I was much slower than with warp."
"In other words, they came, but they didn't arrive." Wen Shanhai's expression immediately turned serious.
Wang Yi and Dai Lan made the same choice as Yu Xing and Gu Bei, except that Yu Xing and Gu Bei arrived, but Wang Yi and Dai Lan disappeared.
Yu Xing also keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Both Wang Yi and Dai Lan possess the ability to leap, and with Wang Yi's strength to single-handedly block all the beasts, he might not be able to break through the Minshan Insect Bridge, but if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.
Even for high-level magical beasts, it's difficult without domain magic.
However, the corpse of the high-level magical beast, the Gold-Eating Locust, is still lying here warmly, unless... there are other high-level magical beasts hidden in the Minshan Insect Bridge, and even stronger ones at that.
"This is a serious matter," Yu Xing sighed.
