At that moment, the ground exploded, and countless giant earthworms crawled upwards from the ground.
Each one was as thick as an average person's waist, and these earthworms didn't attack; they just scurried around.
"Should we make a move?" All the members of the combat team looked around in horror.
The earthworms here are incredibly fast, and these are so big; they seem quite powerful. I wonder if they could take one down with an attack.
"Let's try it out." Before the combat-wearing person could speak, someone next to him pounced on him.
He swiftly slashed at an earthworm with his long knife.
The earthworm ignored him completely. The man's eyes lit up. With one slash, he killed an earthworm. Wasn't this a great achievement?
*Pfft*, the earthworm was stabbed, but the knife didn't completely cut it open.
The hairs on the earthworm blocked the knife, and then several huge earthworms appeared around it, crowding the man.
"No." The man activated his telekinesis, trying to push aside the earthworms around him, but ultimately found it to be useless.
The telekinesis couldn't affect the surrounding earthworms at all; they possessed the power of the earth and could absorb the telekinesis of the other party.
"No, help me, ah!"
A scream rang out as the man was dragged into the soil by several earthworms, his body being crushed and eventually turned into a bloody pulp, which was then buried by the churning earth.
Fu Long and his companions saw this scene through the fox spirit's tail and were also startled.
Earthworms may not seem to be very powerful, but their method of fighting by turning over soil is indeed very difficult to counter.
Unable to attack, once they do, they will be squeezed by the numerous earthworms, unable to move, and eventually carried into the soil by them, where they will die a horrible death.
Fu Long suddenly thought of the earthworm he had fought with the Phantom Troupe before. He wondered if it could become king if it came here, since a talking earthworm is quite rare.
Even so, as long as we don't move, it should be fine, right?
The vixen observed very carefully.
"You can't stay still either. Have you noticed that since the earthworms first came out, this circle has shrunk a lot?"
The group then noticed that it was true; the circle was clearly shrinking, and if they waited a little longer, those in combat gear would probably be completely overwhelmed by the swarm of earthworms.
"We can climb trees, aren't there trees right next to us?"
The little beast then proposed a solution.
Fu Long nodded, indicating that it sounded good.
Sure enough, the fighters in the middle were no pushovers either; someone suggested climbing a tree.
"Let's go." The combat-wearing person remained still, while the three people beside them sprang into action.
These three people clearly work together regularly, so their movements are very practiced.
The three people flew directly to the tree next to them, holding a special kind of claw that could pin people to the tree.
Ding ding ding. After the three of them stuck to the tree, they looked around and realized they were still surrounded by earthworms. The earthworms were so big that if they crawled out of the ground and rolled upwards, they would be at least ten meters high.
Therefore, you must keep climbing upwards.
Several of them also quickly climbed up the tree.
They had only crawled a short distance when they stopped.
Because they noticed that something seemed to be flowing down from the top of the tree.
It was a liquid, looking like tree sap, and it was dripping down in big drops.
The three of them dodged twice, but there was too much sap on it, and eventually, they were hit by a few drops.
The tree sap enveloped the person inside, so thick it was almost stringy.
The three people struggled desperately, but they couldn't get out. The sap on the tree kept increasing their weight, and eventually, the three people released the grappling hook and fell to the ground.
They all opened their mouths wide, but no sound came out because their faces were covered.
The earthworms pushed the three people into the ground again, turning them into bloody mud that churned up.
Fu Long also gasped. Although he knew that climbing the tree was definitely not an option, he hadn't expected the situation to be so intense.
This is really tough. You could say that unless you can fly directly into the sky, you absolutely won't be able to get through the road ahead.
"Could you record this fox tail surveillance footage?"
"Of course you can, but it exists in the form of thought, and you can't see anything without thinking about it."
"That's all." Fu Long began logging into his wristwatch and uploading the data.
This earthworm-infested land is absolutely off-limits; there's no way to enter it.
The person in the center of the battle must be heartbroken. He realized that Fu Long was probably using him as a guinea pig.
So this guy raised his hands and muttered something for a long time.
Fu Long snorted coldly. He could feel that something connected him to the other party.
This is a curse.
Sure enough, when the man in the combat suit died, a wisp of his spirit came toward Fu Long.
Fu Long took out the brocade cassock and was about to take away the spiritual thought when he saw the Howling Celestial Dog rushing up from the side.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the curse was swallowed into his stomach.
Having this guy has saved us a lot of trouble.
Chapter 295 Exploration Gold Coins
"Let's take a detour." Seeing the dead people, Fu Long and his group had no choice but to take a detour, because if they went any further, they would really die a terrible death.
Soon, Fu Long and his group bypassed the area and continued forward from the other side.
The woods here are relatively denser.
However, a few monkey cries broke the tranquility.
Watch out, something's coming.
"Whoosh, whoosh." Four or five monkeys appeared before everyone's eyes.
The leader was a white-haired giant ape, which looked very old.
Behind him stood four guards, each a strong man with bulging muscles.
Fu Long raised an eyebrow; these monkeys reminded him of someone.
Gorenu, these monkeys really do look a lot like that guy's two monkeys.
Of course, Fu Long never met Guo Lienu in real life, but he did see him in the comics.
"Two-legged creatures".
Fu Long was startled. "Holy crap, this white-haired old ape can actually talk!"
Warcraft?
I've seen the ferocious fox before, but it was just an ordinary one. This white-haired ape is different.
If a fight breaks out, Fu Long has no confidence that he can definitely win.
Furthermore, the fact that they were referred to as two-legged creatures suggests that they must have seen humans before, or at least had seen them before.
Are there other humans like me on this continent?
"Humans? Oh, right, that guy said the same thing about himself before. You call yourselves humans."
The white-haired old ape nodded, and after a long while said, "This continent is very large, and I have not traveled all of it, so I don't know if there are two...humans like you, but a long, long time ago, I saw humans."
Fu Long then realized that the white-haired old ape looked quite old and was very knowledgeable.
But that doesn't make sense. When did I see humans before?
“I remember, that guy, I think he said his name was Donglai.”
Damn it, that happened more than 300 years ago. The question is, how old is this white-haired old ape?
Fu Long scratched his head and said, "Dong is considered our senior. In that case, I'll call you senior too. May I ask how old you are?"
I didn't ask your age, mainly because I was afraid the other person wouldn't understand.
The old ape scratched his head and finally sighed: "It's been too long, I've forgotten. But after Dong, some people also ventured into this jungle, but they just came in to take a look and then left. I didn't disturb them."
This must have been during one of the five subsequent explorations of the Dark Continent, traversing this area.
Of those five times, humanity brought back only five curses.
This must be the sixth time I've come.
The white-haired ape in front of him didn't seem hostile, but Fu Long still didn't dare to be careless.
So he said, "In that case, we won't disturb you any longer. We still need to explore this jungle, so we'll take our leave now."
"Wait a minute," the white-haired old ape called out to Fu Long.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, something came flying at him.
Fu Long also activated his immortality before reaching out to catch it.
The white-haired old ape was incredibly strong. Despite his advanced age, he still possessed such power. One wonders how strong the four guards standing behind him must be.
Furthermore, these five monkeys may be part of a larger group.
The exact number of individuals in this group is uncertain.
It's clear that we can't force our way in; resolving the issue through conversation is the best course of action.
Fu Long opened his hand, revealing a gold coin.
It looks very old.
"This was given to me by Dong back then. He said that if any human could find this place in the future, I should give this to him. If I saw Dong again, I could get a hint from him by taking this gold coin."
This is damn good stuff! Fu Long is thinking about it. If possible, he wants to ask Dong how he found the elixir of immortality. That's the real treasure.
Anyway, this gold coin is a good thing.
"Thank you very much, senior. We'll be leaving now."
