National Games: Zhongli at the beginning, the sense of security is full

Now the question arises, will the Insect King pounce on the flames like other insects?

Jiang Yuan and the others judged the bug king based on the size of the bug and whether there were other bugs around for protection.

You know, the bugs they encountered always appeared alone.

Only when you encounter the insect king, it is surrounded by other insects for protection.

Although there is no protection, it doesn't make much difference to Jiang Yuan. Anyway, it is easy to solve it.

But now the bugs are squeezing in this direction, and they can't tell if there are any special bugs at all.

"Oh, it would be great if the Insect King had a label!"

Paimon reluctantly withdrew his searching gaze.

"Do you think it's possible that the Insect King got into the fire and was burned to death when we didn't think about it?"

Jiang Yuan was silent.

"...It's not impossible."

"What should we do? How can we exchange information with that person?" Paimeng looked at Jiang Yuan.

After the fire goes out, take the ashes back and tell the person that the body of the Insect King is in that handful of ashes?

Jiang Yuan thought about the feasibility of this method.

It's not difficult to find a container for ash.

But it is not necessary.

He clenched the Staff of Protector in his hand: "Let's go back directly, explain the situation to him, and see the other party's reaction."

"In the worst case, use force."

Things that can be solved by force are the easiest things.

So the three of them walked backwards in the sea of ​​insects.

The insect rushed toward the flames, but the three figures were avoided by the insect.

The perspective of the live broadcast room automatically shifted to a high place. In the dense sea of ​​insects, their figures were both small and conspicuous.

Even Jiang Yuan and the other three people who had gone through it once did not expect that on their way to find the Insect King, there would be so many hidden insects that did not attack them.

There are even humanoid creatures with insect characteristics.

wrong.

"It's the old man with butterfly wings!"

Where are the "people hidden in the road", the people at the beginning of their path!

At this moment, the man's face was expressionless, and his eyes were staring in the direction where Jiang Yuan and the others were facing away. The tree-shaped flame reflected in his emotionless eyes.

Jiang Yuan hurriedly stood up and placed it in front of the old man.

The other party didn't look at him, walked around him, and moved on.

"Hey -" Jiang Yuan swung his spear with his backhand, stepped back a short distance and blocked the man in front of him with the barrel of his gun, "Wait a minute."

He is very fast, faster than that man.

So the man's body hit the gun barrel. Due to the speed, his head and legs were thrust forward, and the waist blocked by the gun barrel was stiffly concave.

The audience couldn't help but worry about whether there would be problems with this old man's waist.

The old man stopped.

His body shook suddenly, as if he suddenly woke up, and he lowered his head and glanced at the Humo Staff swung by Jiang Yuan.

"Are you ok?"

Jiang Yuan asked.

The old man answered the question inappropriately: "Did you make that fire?"

"It's me." Jiang Yuan did not deny what he had done.

"It turns out that this is what he meant when he said help." The old man gave Jiang Yuan a deep look.

Jiang Yuan recalled the "him" the old man called him, the man with the tentacles behind his back, and felt that the old man had misunderstood something.

But he wasn't sure.

So he didn't speak.

He didn't speak, and the old man continued by himself: "This help is not bad, thank you."

"I'm going to move on, you go back to him, he's left there."

Jiang Yuan and the others watched blankly as the old man fluttered his wings, avoided the Humo Staff lying horizontally in Jiang Yuan's hand, and flew away.

I really can't figure it out.

Then move on, the old man said, and the man stayed where he was.

Many "human beings" appeared on the road one after another. Some were familiar to Jiang Yuan and the audience, and some were completely unfamiliar to them.

There is at least one Zerg characteristic in them. They do not squint, turning a blind eye to Jiang Yuan and the others. Their eyes are fixed on the place where the flames are burning, without exception.

Along the way, the figure of the insect never disappeared.

Occasionally looking back, the flames on the giant tree were so blazing that they could feel the heat just looking at it.

Jiang Yuan couldn't help but glance at his hand and the spear in his hand.

Did he do this? Obviously he didn't use much force and consumed less than one-tenth of his energy!

That tree is full of energy, shouldn't it be able to withstand flames easily? Why does it seem to be fueling the fire?

……

The giant tree they came from was close at hand, and the man had already been standing under the tree waiting for them.

Walking not far from the tree trunk, the man stared at Jiang Yuan, and his first words were questions pointing at the flames.

"You did this?"

"It's me." Jiang Yuan admitted this problem for the second time.

"You——" The man's emotions fluctuated extremely rapidly in an instant, and his expressions changed from side to side, making it difficult to tell what his mood was.

His expression changed for at least half a minute, and finally he continued: "Where is the body of the Insect King?"

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment because what he said was different from what he guessed.

"...It will probably turn to ashes in the fire. Do you want it too?"

"..."

After a long while, the man frowned: "How did you do it?"

"Are you talking about lighting that tree on fire?" Jiang Yuan asked.

He raised the Humo Staff in his hand and showed it to the man.

Then the shadow of the butterfly on his body flashed, and flames ignited on the gun body.

"That's how it works."

The flames burning on the giant tree would attract the insects here to rush in, but the flames on the Huma Staff made the man take a few steps back and press his back tightly against the tree trunk behind him.

"Okay, I understand, you can put it away."

The man's urgent tone betrayed his desire to stay away from the flames.

Jiang Yuan looked at the man meaningfully and suddenly smiled.

"I changed my mind."

As the man watched nervously, he waved the spear casually and pointed the tip of the spear at the man.

"Why do I have to run errands for you? What a hassle!"

Jiangyuan is connected.

"Next, I ask and you answer."

"Otherwise, I will light a new fire here."

The man looked at Jiang Yuan and found that Jiang Yuan was serious.

The young man in front of him, who looked young, had a gentle and cheerful personality, was more powerful than he thought.

The behavior was also more unexpected than he thought, and it was hard to fool him.

"……What do you want to know."

He seemed to give in.

"The first question is, why does it keep raining in this world?"

The tip of the gun drew an arc in the air.

"It's been like this since I was born." The man lowered his eyes and answered honestly, "The information passed down by the ancestors said that this rain has been falling before the birth of human beings, until now."

"Are you really human?"

"...Some people think so."

"What about you?"

"I think so."

Jiang Yuan watched the tentacle-like hair on the man's head tremble irregularly in the air: "Then how come you have the characteristics of insects? What is your relationship with insects?"

He asked two questions in a row.

"We have the blood of insects in us."
