Chapter 2458 Death Knell Beetle (Ⅲ)

It's a pity that so far, all those who rushed out to die were nymphs.

Elder Gu was quite indignant while being disappointed, shaking his head and criticizing the inferiority of the race of deathknell beetles.

"The elders don't look like the elders at all. They hide in the lair and dare not show their faces. They only let the younger ones come out to die. Their morality is inferior, and Feila can't bear it!"

"Stop saying a few words, you old man! A large group of adult insects is gathering in the nest. If the stone wall is broken by their joint efforts, I'm afraid you think there are too many adult insects to catch!"

Through the "peeping magic eye", Joan saw more than a dozen adult death knell beetles appearing behind the nymphs. They seemed to be arranging their formation, and quickly activated the "advanced internal vision technique".

...

Reconnaissance target: Death knell beetle (adult) (large supernatural insect, Coleoptera) × 20

Life Level: 12

Attributes: Strength 26, Dexterity 10, Constitution 23, Intelligence 1, Wisdom 11, Charisma 11

Traits: Insect traits, dark vision, keen sense of smell, absorbing sonic damage, burrowing; sonic resonance (60-foot cone spread, causing 10-level sonic damage), other (unidentified)

...

About 20 adult death knell beetles all faced the stone wall blocking the exit of the nest with the trumpet-shaped organs on the top of their heads, and at the same time issued "sonic harmonics" to bombard the stone wall!

The sonic attack of an adult death knell beetle spreads in a 60-foot cone, with an average destructive power of 10 energy levels, and has bonus damage to minerals and crystals including rocks!

Twenty sound waves bombarded at the same time, superimposed on each other, and the ten-foot-thick granite wall couldn't bear it, and soon caused a resonance, accompanied by violent tremors, dense cracks appeared, and finally fell apart and collapsed!

The stone wall was completely destroyed, and the large group of nymphs that had gathered at the entrance of the cave lost their hindrance, rushing out like a flood breaking an embankment.

Gumodo trembled in fright, hurriedly raised his wand, and added a wall of fire, trying to stop the swarming insects.

The defense line formed by the double wall of fire made the nymphs in the front row feel the deadly threat, and they all stopped in front of Lie Yan (raging flames).

At this time, the adult insects screamed from behind, seeming to urge them to continue rushing forward.

The nymphs couldn't resist the orders of the adults, so they rushed towards the fire wall.

The adult death knell beetles following behind the large group of nymphs are not only able to give orders, forcing the nymphs to be cannon fodder, and collectively emit "sonic harmonics" through the horns above their heads, covering all the nymphs in front of them within the range of supernatural sound waves.

The death knell beetle is born with the supernatural ability to absorb sonic damage. The "sonic harmonics" emitted by the adult beetles bombard the nymphs, which is equivalent to providing a 10-level medical effect and helping them heal their burns.

The nymphs who received treatment in time regained their vitality, broke through two firewalls in one go, and rushed straight to Joan and Gumoduo.

"Oio múré!"

At a critical juncture, Qiao An promptly cast the 8-ring "burning cloud technique" that he learned yesterday, and created a large fiery red cloud full of hot steam with a wave of his hand, drowning the approaching insect swarm.

The moment the swarm came into contact with the fire cloud, they would receive 12 energy level burns, and for every 6 seconds they stayed in the fire cloud, they would receive an additional 12 energy level damage.

The immature death knell beetle had limited vitality, and was instantly killed when it was enveloped by the "burning cloud technique". Even if the adults provided treatment later, it was too late to save the fragile lives of the nymphs.

The fiery cloud moved slowly, penetrating into the nest through the hole blocked by the demolition of the stone wall, and now even the adults hiding in the hole were threatened, and they collectively issued a "sonic resonance", taking advantage of the sound wave caused by the fire cloud The airflow dilutes, scrambling to escape from the area where the "burning cloud technique" permeates.

"Haha! The adults have finally come out!"

Gumoduo noticed a large death knell beetle rushing out of the hole, he couldn't help showing joy, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to go forward to catch it, when there was a sudden roar at the hole, and then two adult beetles rushed out.

The joy on the old bogman's face gradually turned into anxiety. In just half a minute, no less than ten adult death knell beetles had rushed out of the nest.

"Forget it, now is not a good time to catch bugs."

Elder Gu wisely stayed away from the group of dangerous beetles that had just escaped from the fire cloud, and chanted a prayer praising the "origin of nature", and countless thorns covered with sharp and poisonous thorns emerged from the ground, forming a natural wall, enclosing himself and Joe. Ann surrounded the death knell beetles.

The group of big beetles on the opposite side also sensed the enemy's position at this time, and rushed forward fiercely. As a result, they ran head-on into the roadblock created by the fifth-level "thorn wall technique". Every step forward became very difficult, as if they were in a quagmire. Trekking, the body was scratched countless scars.

The death knell beetle trapped in the thorn bushes used the bony horn on its forehead to emit harsh sound waves, trying to bombard the opponent through the thorn wall, but it was useless. protective cover.

"Canwa!"

Under the cover of the "Wall of Thorns Technique", Joan calmly cast the 3rd-level spell "Dominate Bugs" through the "Chain Shot" supermagic, and a beam of blue light burst out from his fingertips, hitting a death knell trapped in the thorn bushes The beetle, the light beam then scattered towards the surroundings, bringing the rest of the nearby adult insects under the control of the spell.

The perception attribute of the death knell beetle is not high, and it can't resist Joan's mana at all. The ten adult beetles that were recruited were reduced to puppets under his control.

Joan sent out telepathy, commanding the group of death knell beetles to exit the thorn bush with difficulty, radiate sound waves to return blood to each other, and then formed a guard to assist himself and the elders to eliminate other death knell beetles.

Most of the nymphs in the nest were killed by the "Burning Cloud Technique", and there were very few adults left. Occasionally, two or three rushed out of the hole, and before Joan and Gumoduo could make a move, they were killed by the ten "rebellious" ones of the same kind. Pounce on and surround and kill.

As the battle in the grotto came to an end, Qiao An greeted Elder Gua, and used the "Styx Robe" to become a ghost and escape into the spirit world.

Ghosts have two forms, "incorporeal" and "spiritual". The "incorporeal" form is visible and may be killed by the supernatural sound waves emitted by the death knell beetle; the "spiritual" form is invisible and cannot be affected by the sound waves. Attack impact, more suitable for sneaking into dangerous areas.

Joan maintained the spirit form, quietly penetrated the stone wall, and entered the interior of the insect nest.

Through the many glass magic eyes pre-set in the insect nest, Joan already knew the environment inside the nest like the back of his hand, and he crossed the rock walls without stopping, and went straight into the cave specially used for hatching eggs.

Qiao An observed the movement in the "Nursery", and confirmed that there was no trap, and she appeared in the form of an incorporeal body. Before the potbellied insect queen could react, she raised her hand and sent "Dominate the insects" to transform her Become a "fan girl" who is obedient and obedient to herself.
