Chapter 147 It’s a scarab, run quickly (4800)
The fog was so thick that it was impossible to see the way ahead. Ka Xiu followed the black shadow and rushed deep into the jungle.
"Where exactly is it taking me?"
Kaxiu narrowed his eyes, and the pale air lingered in his nose.
five minutes later.
clatter! A black boot stepped on the clearing.
Three adult men wearing ordinary clothes suddenly turned their heads and looked at the person not far away. One of the strongest ones glanced over: "Hunter? No, just an ordinary human being."
Da da da……
The person rushed straight over without any signs of stopping.
"Get out of the way! Don't block the road!"
Hearing this, the three vampires laughed angrily. The strong man at the head had a downcast face: "How dare you speak to me in such a tone, you little human being, I didn't want to eat extra food today..."
Roar!
A high-pitched cry came from the man's mouth. His entire body instantly deformed and swelled, and his face turned into a beast. The clothes on his body were torn, revealing a strong black and red body and mane underneath.
The man had a bat face and a sneer. What he likes to see most is the fear of humans seeing the true form of the Vampires.
"Suffer death!"
With a gasp, the man rushed out frantically.
Bang! The next second, a shadow flew back at high speed.
The blood drew an elegant arc line in the air.
"What!" When the other two vampires saw this scene, they were surprised and entered the transformation state of Blood Gift. All of a sudden, he became a half-human, half-sized monster like the strong man just now, with thick claws almost as big as a human head.
Uh-huh! A huge black shadow rushed past the two of them in an instant.
Ka Xiu didn't even look back, and the white airflow surrounding his hands quickly dissipated. He rushed deeper into the fog without saying a word.
Two heads behind him were sprayed with blood and shot up into the sky.
In the thick white mist, Ka Xiu was very focused. He could feel that the speed of the guiding shadow in front of him was accelerating, and he no longer cared whether Ka Xiu could keep up. If he wanted to follow all the way to find out what was going on, he had to maintain his speed.
Any vampire or human who stands in the way must get out of the way.
If you don't want to leave, then you have no choice but to die.
Another ten minutes passed, in what seemed like an endless thick fog. Card Xiu's hands were dripping with blood and his steps were jumping. Every time he stepped hard, he would leave a deep hole in the ground.
Gain explosive forward speed.
Along the way, the surrounding environment has hardly changed.
The only thing that has changed is that there are more vampires around. These isolated vampires don't know what it means to give way. In their eyes, Ka Xiu is just a blood bag flying towards his mouth. Most of their first reaction is to intercept him.
Needless to say, there is no need to elaborate on the consequences of blocking the road.
Card Xiu has killed nearly double digits of vampires.
"Crashing... crashing..."
In the distance, there seemed to be a faint sound of water coming.
After a while, Ka Xiu stopped beside a grassy field. Although the surrounding fog was hazy, he could still see the outline of the waterfall falling in front of him. Below the waterfall is an oval pool, with a stream flowing down from the gap in the pool.
The edges are green grass and some gray and white stones covered with moss. There was an empty circle around them, and then there were woods.
"The black shadow stopped..." Card Xiu raised his eyes and looked up.
The shadow that had led him here had slowed down. As if walking normally, pacing back and forth in the fog, seeming to be looking for something. After a few seconds, the shadow walked in one direction again, and finally stopped next to a big tree.
Before Ka Xiu could rush over, the shadow instantly dissipated.
The next moment, Ka Xiu stood next to the big tree and slowly leaned down. This old tree is very tall and looks like it has been growing here for a long time. Its bark is wrinkled like an old man's face.
The roots of the trees on the ground were twisted and strong, like giant gray-white pythons, meandering under the soil.
Ka Xiu half-crouched on a thick tree root and stretched out his hand to push out the leaves and soil from the gaps between the roots. After digging for a long time, there were some gray stones inside. He wiped off the soil on the surface and took a closer look. He found that these were not ordinary stones, but looked like part of a wall or tiles.
He reached out his hand and dug for a while.
More stones appeared in front of Ka Xiu's eyes, with a large number of traces eroded by wind and rain. However, some signs of civilization are still preserved, with traces of carvings and paintings.
He held the tile in his hand and thought for a while.
Suddenly, his hands were instantly wrapped in white air, and he dug hard into the gap between the tree roots. A large amount of soil piled up next to it. After a while, Kaxiu felt that the dense soil below was empty.
He pulled hard with both hands.
A hole suddenly appeared in front of him. It was so dark that he didn't know where it led. Ka Xiu noticed that there was a layer of rock wall next to the entrance of the cave, with obvious signs of man-made construction.
"Is it a tomb? Or a ruins?!"
Card Xiu frowned tightly. He thought of the black shadow that had just pointed the way, and hesitated for a moment whether to go in and take a look.
I moved closer to the entrance of the cave, and there seemed to be no problem with the air inside.
Ka Xiu took a deep breath and stepped directly inside. As soon as he entered the cave wall, his figure slid downwards.
This is a gray-white landslide at an angle of about sixty degrees.
It was very dark inside, and it was almost impossible to see clearly.
laugh! laugh! laugh!
There seemed to be a sound of machine spewing from the surrounding cave walls. Ka Xiu felt something shoot into his body. He quickly closed his eyes and covered his face and neck with his arms.
Ding, ding, ding... a series of crashing sounds all the way down.
About fifteen seconds later, Ka Xiu regained his balance. Both feet stepped on a solid and stable passage floor.
Phew
A faint fire suddenly appeared on the upper edge of the cave wall, and spread along a line all the way inside. The color of the flame is pale white, not very bright, and has a dim feeling.
Card Xiu was a little surprised, then he put his hand to his hair and took out a black arrow. It turned out that the hidden weapon that had been attacking him just now was this kind of hidden weapon. He glanced at his right forearm and saw white spots on the skin. Some places were almost broken, which shows the penetrating strength of this kind of arrow.
You must know that Kaxiu, who is highly skilled in stone armor and heavy armor, can even shoulder bullets. The penetrating power of this arrow is already comparable to that of bullets.
Pressing hard with his right hand, the arrow was broken with a click.
Suspecting that there was another mechanism ahead, Card Xiu deliberately slowed down his pace and cautiously walked deeper into the passage.
About two minutes later, a corner appeared ahead.
He stepped over.
Suddenly, the ground ahead cracked. It's a trap!
A square-shaped neatly arranged spike appeared at the bottom of the two-meter-deep pit, and Ka Xiu immediately fell down. He turned around and reached out with his right hand to grab it violently, actually clamping the edge of the pothole forcefully.
His body swung violently, and he raised his hands upward vigorously. He returned to his original position and gently clenched his fists.
He stepped on the ground and flew across the entire trap.
Then, click!
The ground cracked again.
Ka Xiu was caught off guard and fell in completely.
There was a thud from the bottom of the pit.
"Fuck! So insidious!"
Ka Xiu didn't expect that one day he would also be tricked.
He was lying on top of a pile of spikes, his face gloomy. The moment he fell, although Kaxiu didn't react as quickly as the first time, he still managed to control his body in mid-air.
Do a flip and land on your muscular back.
The more spikes that come into contact at the same time, the smaller the pressure will be and the less likely it will be to pierce Ka Xiu's body. This is the right thing to do.
Although he fell to the bottom of the pit, he felt no pain in his back, and there was probably no injury or bleeding. Turning over and standing up quickly, these spikes were almost as high as Kaxiu's thighs. A person of average height would not even be able to step on the bottom of the pit.
He glanced at the place where he fell just now, and the top of the entire spike there was flattened. After a closer look, I realized that these iron thorns seemed to have been there for who knows how many years. The surface is severely corroded and rust has spread all over the thorn head.
Its penetration is obviously not as strong as when it was new.
Ka Xiu thought of the sharp arrow just now.
Maybe the concealed weapon inside the wall is better sealed...
Half a minute later, he stood on the floor of the passage again.
This time, Ka Xiu became more cautious. But then he never encountered any dangers such as traps. He walked smoothly along the passage for several hundred meters and then stopped.
What appeared in front of us was a huge cave wall, a vast cylindrical cavity. The bottom looks as big as a basketball court, and there are oval passages and holes on the gray-white cave walls that seem to lead to different directions.
At a glance, the dense black holes extend to unknown directions, giving people an inexplicable sense of eeriness and terror.
Card Xiu's eyes were dazed for a moment, then he took a few steps outside and stood on the raised platform inside the cavity. He looked to the right and saw steps separated from each other on the cave wall.
You can reach the bottom by jumping on the steps.
Ka Xiu hesitated for a while, then jumped over cautiously. The steps are not traps, nor do they feel like they will break if you jump on them. These platforms are very stable.
In this way, he descended to the bottom step by step.
The surrounding air began to plummet, and Kaxiu could clearly feel the loss of body temperature. He seemed to be able to see a faint white mist in the air when he exhaled through his nostrils. His body shook, and blood began to circulate continuously in the three nodes, providing heat for the naked upper body.
Five minutes later, Cardiff reached the bottom.
At a glance, there are five huge holes on the bottom floor.
Don't know where it leads.
In the middle of the cave wall, a gray-white fountain was working, with pale white water circulating around the pool.
"Does the fountain function for this long? Or is it maintained?"
Card Xiu took two steps to the side. Suddenly he felt that he had crushed something. He released his foot and saw that it was an insect.
A thumb-shaped beetle with a white shell. The bugs had been trampled to death, and the light green liquid sizzled on the ground.
Ka Xiu lightly stamped his feet, and suddenly the fountain in front of him began to tremble, and the white water kept swaying. Then a large number of white beetles spewed out from the mouth of the fountain, squeaking non-stop.
"Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh..."
Corrosive acid shot out one after another.
Kaxiu's body quickly dodges, and then his right hand suddenly turns white, and a swirling airflow quickly forms in the palm of his hand.
The flat spherical airflow buzzed extremely unsteadily.
Just when he couldn't control it any more, he threw it away.
The blue wind air ball hit the fountain with a whoosh and exploded with a bang, and a fierce hurricane enveloped the surrounding one meter area.
Many white beetles were stirred to pieces.
But more beetles kept crawling out.
They move in groups.
On the other side, Ka Xiu's figure was no longer on the bottom platform. At one of the cave entrances, a shadow flashed away.
Half an hour later, the sound of rapid footsteps came from a silent passage, and the white line of fire at the top spread along with the footsteps.
"The style of this place is similar to the ruins I visited at dusk..." Card Xiu thought as he ran wildly.
The figure flashed away at the end of the passage, and a moment later, the sound of dense insects climbing could be heard at the intersection of the gray-white passage.
This group of white beetles is really persistent.
Five minutes passed, and Ka Xiu rushed into a passage like a whirlwind. His pupils shrank, but his steps did not stop for a moment. Instead, he exploded with all his strength and ran wildly past.
In an instant, he appeared at the end of the passage.
The next second, a total of twelve gray-white stone statues on both sides of the passage came to life. Stone chips peeled off at the joints, and the stone statues raised their heads one after another, revealing strange human faces with twelve different emotions.
Crying, laughing, angry, roaring...
Their movements quickly changed from stiff to smooth, and each of their huge bodies took steps and chased in the direction of Ka Xiu's escape.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, there was a dense climbing sound at the entrance of the passage. The last stone statue turned its head, and a white torrent squeezed in, covering all the stone statues in an instant.
"Sssssssssss..."
The highly corrosive acid almost rained down.
"Ho ho ho!"
Hearing a deafening roar behind him.
Ka Xiu walked faster.
A few hours later, Ka Xiu, who was running without shoes, was almost speechless. What a big deal, didn't you just crush a white beetle to death? As for rushing out and chasing him for three or four hours!
He is now in a bit of a mess, and there are traces of acid corrosion on the surface of his body. Except for a pair of shorts that were almost crotchless, Ka Xiu even threw away his shoes that were suspected of being contaminated with pheromones. However, the swarm of insects still persisted, and he suspected that he was also contaminated with pheromones. But there is no water source for cleaning in the ruins.
Therefore, Kaxiu could only escape all the way, relying on the amazing physical strength of the three-node cycle to keep running away. Many other dangers in the ruins were also encountered during this period. For example, the blood-sucking vines hanging on the cave wall, the half-human-sized magic flower mantis, the human-faced flower with strong hallucinogenic pollen, the mutated three-headed python, etc...
It seems that all the dangers mentioned above have been eliminated by White Beetle. He seems to have provoked an ultimate boss at the beginning.

In a hall full of plants, some monkey-like creatures hang from vines. When Ka Xiu rushed over, he kept attacking with weapons and blocked him crazily.
Fortunately, Ka Xiu had mastered the hard qigong and rushed out.
The annoying monkey squeaked and seemed to want to chase.
The next second a white torrent swept through the entire hall.
As the torrent receded, large numbers of monkey skeletons fell from the vines. It hit the ground, shattered into pieces, and continued to smoke.
ten minutes later.
Card Xiu rushed to the end of a tunnel, but what made him dumbfounded was that it turned out to be a dead end! There was already a climbing sound coming from the rear tunnel entrance, and a large number of white beetles were pouring in.
"Hold!"
His fists hit the wall as if venting his anger.
"Huh?! This wall seems to be empty?"
At the same time, in a vast hall.
The dome extends widely, and the top seems to be an unknown mural painted with black and red paint. In the center of the hall is a very, very large pool. In the center of the pool is a stone pillar submerged in water.
On the ground between the hall and the pool, dense red rituals spread like spider webs. There are unknown symbols on it that are incomprehensible, like tadpoles.
And now, these symbols are lighting up one by one.
Ten mysterious men in black robes were kneeling on the ground piously, muttering unspeakable pronunciations. It seems to be some kind of mysterious and strange prayer. Their fingers were pressed to the ground, bleeding. The blood flowing out seeped into the ground ritual, as if it was stimulating and reviving something.
"ki tu gi a ba a ba..."
The prayers grew louder and louder, reaching a certain limit.
Suddenly, all the rituals on the ground turned red.
The calm water turned into a transparent golden yellow like amber, a steam rose deeply, and the hall made a banging sound.
Wait, boom! ? This has never happened before during a ceremony. Many men in black robes raised their heads and looked at the pool with suspicious eyes. Could it be? Could it be!
A man in black robes murmured excitedly: "Finally..."
Bang!
The dome exploded and a piece of the stone wall crashed down.
Then a shadow jumped into the pool with a splash.
"What's going on?! Who is that person?!"
"He fell into the holy pool!!!"
"Be bold!"
"No, the ceremony has been completed and cannot be stopped!"
All the men in black robes suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.
Crash lala... clatter lala... clatter lala...
There seemed to be a white river climbing down the cave wall above his head, and hissing sounds were heard as the limbs rubbed against the wall.
The next second, the chaotic voices turned into shouts.
"What the hell, it's a scarab, run!!!"
