Chapter 171 Fly Up, Fall Down

"Okay, are you ready?"

"I think we should consider going down first... Walking on the bridge is harmful but not beneficial."

"Are all of you Mantis clan so ink-stained?"

"Is your race so bold?"

"My race has always been brave to challenge giant intelligent creatures that are several times larger than myself. Compared with that kind of creatures, the little bugs on the top of the bridge in front of me are not enough."

Looking at the little cockroach in front of him eager to try, Mantis's heart was still trembling.

"Go or not, do you want to be a hero for a while, or a coward for life!"

"I just want to go home and see..."

"Very well, you seem to want to be a hero, let's go."

The other party didn't take his words seriously at all, and the praying mantis was also discouraged: "Okay, let's just dive down. If we encounter the danger of being incapable of fighting, we will dive down immediately."

"understood."

"..." Looking at Wan Yi, Mantis said, "My name is Kurom, what's your name?"

"Wan Yi."

"It's a bit of a weird tone."

"I come from far away." Maybe that place is called "South".

Finally, I did some mental construction. Finally, both the praying mantis and the cockroach were ready, and then jumped up at the edge of the bridge at the same time.

Whoa!

The mantis spread its wings and flew in the air, and Wan Yi...

"I'm going, I can really fly... But, isn't it a little wobbly?" Wan Yi felt the limp cloak behind him suddenly harden the moment he was determined to take off.

Then it flashes rapidly at a very high frequency, making an eerie flying sound.

He really flew!
But I don't know why, but it just feels wobbly.

"No problem, that's how cockroaches fly."

"It is in line with the public's impression of cockroaches."

"The main body is so small, I thought it was a small northern cockroach, but its flying posture should be a big southern cockroach."

The avatars responded to Wan Yi's question.

But after Wan Yifei flew for a while, he immediately felt out of breath.

The cloak behind him seemed to be about to soften after being fanned vigorously for a while.

"It doesn't last long..."

Just when Wan Yi was about to fall, Kurom quickly grabbed Wan Yi and hugged him: "After talking for a long time, in the end you are so unskilled in flying! Just want to challenge Tiantu?!"

"Actually, this is my first time flying."

Culom uttered a lot of swearing, and almost threw Wan Yi down with a shake of his hand.

"No, we have to turn back immediately."

"That may be too late."

Whoosh!
There was a sound of breaking through the air above the head, and a white spear flew towards him. Kurom blocked it with one free hand, making a nice crisp sound.

But immediately after, in the dark shadows on the top of the bridge, orange eyes lit up one after another.

"It may be a bit late now." Wan Yi made a voice as if it had nothing to do with him.

Whoosh whoosh!
The sound of countless spears piercing the air sounded, and the white spears covered the two insects like rain.

Wan Yi quickly climbed from Kurom's arms to its head.

"It should be more convenient for you to have both hands free."

Coulom wanted to scold the worm, but it was too late.

He quickly swung the blades of both hands to shoot down the spears approaching the surroundings one by one. Wan Yi also took out the Chongchong Knife to help. It is not difficult to guard an acre of three-point land.

After a long wave of spear rain passed, those flying beetles attacked right after.

Although the equipment and carapaces on their bodies didn't look like they had been taken care of frequently, they were undoubtedly superior to the bugs wandering in the wilderness outside by countless times.

The fastest bug in the lead came directly in front of Coulom, and Coulom hurriedly set up his two knives to block the opponent's thrust.

Then the double-knife frame opened the spear and hit an extremely fast two-stroke combo.

Although the opponent sprinted very fast, his reaction didn't seem to be that fast, and he was directly killed by Kurom's double knives cutting through the weak point of the carapace.

"Very good, it seems that you have already qualified to apply for the high-altitude guard of Hallownest." Wan Yi said, lying on the back of Colomb's neck.

"They were just blinded by the plague, which is completely incomparable with their normal situation." Collome said, "And the mantis family does not need Hallownest's affirmation."

"Holynest doesn't want to affirm you, but Hallownest is planning to stab you into a hornet's nest." Wan Yi shook its head, allowing it to see a large number of guards following in front of it.

Coulom quickly prepared himself to dodge the straight-line sprint of several guards, but because of the large number, he finally couldn't dodge it, and had to confront the opponent head-on again.

Wan Yi climbed up and down Kurom's body, holding a bug knife in his hand to pick the right time to slash to help relieve the pressure.

Although Coulom always felt that such a dark, oval-shaped thing kept going back and forth on his body was a bit weird, but soon the opponent's gradually violent charge made him no longer think about it, and it was almost unable to hold on. up!

No, how far they have flown and how far ahead, so many guards guarding the bridge, it is impossible for insects to break through.

Just when it was about to dive down to the bridge as it had planned before, suddenly, its wings stopped waving.

Not to prepare for a dive, but to stop without warning.

Coulom fell a lot before forcing his wings to flap again, stabilizing in mid-air.

"What's the matter with you?" Wan Yi was also startled by the other party.

"I..." Colum's expression was complicated, but a large number of bugs rushed towards it.

Wan Yi sighed helplessly, and then took out the Soul Eater wand, and several soul crystals flickered on the small black hands after turning into little cockroaches.

After condensing on the staff, it raised its hand and pointed to the air.

The next moment, the power of the soul turned into countless wailing souls that roared into the air and charged.

The guards who were close were directly engulfed by the power of the soul, and the guards who were further away would be blown away by the impact of the soul.

It was as if a ball of fire had been thrown among the insects, and countless insects were burned and fell down after being killed.

Wan Yi picked up many soul crystals in the process.

He looked at the soul crystal floating next to him: "The soul of a bug looks the same as a human."

At least there is no difference between the condensed soul crystals.

"Wan Yi." Culom suddenly said.

"what's up?"

"I may not be able to hold on anymore."

"What can't hold it anymore?"

"fly……"

Before he could speak, Coulom's wings froze again.

The two began to fall.

"You did it on purpose?" Wan Yi asked in the air.

"No! Just go ahead, how could I go back on my word?!" Collom shouted loudly.

"Then what's going on?!"

"I'm almost an adult! My wings are about to degenerate!"

"A mantis like this?!"

"Our praying mantis family is like this!"

"In the end you won't be able to fly steadily!"

"You who are flying for the first time are not qualified to criticize me in this regard!"

The cockroaches and praying mantises were arguing in the air, while their wings kept flapping. Although the falling momentum was slowed down, it still couldn't change the fact that they kept falling.

When the guards recovered from the stamina of the soul technique, they could no longer find their target.

The orange-red eyes flickered slightly, and finally they all flew back to the top of the bridge, entering dormancy and waiting for the next overwhelmed intruder.

……

"It's amazing. A cockroach that is flying for the first time, and a praying mantis that is about to mature and its wings have degenerated. It seems that our result is already doomed." Wan Yi said, looking at the lush environment around him.

Still had to go through here in the end.

The surroundings are covered with moss, and there is a clear river not far away. The vegetation grows wildly, and there are many thick thorns covering the land.

"I have already said that it is foolhardy to challenge Tiantu." Mantis said lying on the ground.

"Actually, it's the same for me wherever I go."

"Why do I feel that you are talking hard?"

"No, I didn't." The little cockroach puffed out his chest.

The two whiskers on Coulom's head drooped a little weakly, but he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Did you use soul magic just now?"

"Huh? About the same."

"I heard that only the snail family can master this mysterious power. Have you ever received the blessing of the snail family?"

"Ah? I don't. Will the snail bless the cockroach?"

"Uh, I haven't really seen the snail family. But it seems that you are indeed very powerful, much stronger than me."

"Aren't you pretty good?" Although Wan Yi has never seen other fighters in this world, Kurom's combat performance in the air is really good.

If it weren't for the degeneration of wings, maybe the cooperation of the two insects could really take Wan Yi across the bridge.

Wan Yi looked at the orange-red light shining in his hands, like the crystallization of souls like orange juice. These things were the souls he had collected from the previous guards.

Not the same as normal souls.

"These souls look tainted."

"Blinding plague." Collom said after taking a look.

"you know?"

"I came a little earlier than you, and I found out some things while wandering." Collom said, "Beginning in the middle of the holy war, the power from the blinding light began to infiltrate the minds of the bugs indiscriminately. The worms of light gave their wits to become ruthless warriors, and the Pale King's armies were corrupted by the blinding light."

"Are those guards like this just now?"

"Yes. The blinding light is like a lunatic, and its power continues to spread like a plague. You may be impregnated accidentally, and then become a puppet..." Collom's voice became weaker and weaker.

Wan also felt the gradually stronger fear wafting from it.

Only then did he understand what the half-adult praying mantis was really afraid of.
