I've Led the Villain Astray, How Do I Fix It?

"It's troublesome." Xu Ziyan frowned even tighter. Although he had learned that this kind of thing didn't seem to have any reaction to Fanhuo, it was still very frustrating to see the flame go out with his own eyes.

With a twitch in Xu Zirong's heart, and with a flick of his fingertips, a drop of red blood essence turned into a mouse-like blood beast after falling to the ground.

Seeing that bloody mouse, Xu Ziyan couldn't help but twitch his cheeks, he always felt that this was the one that did the pole dance last time.

"Squeak!" The blood beast excitedly spun around a few times after landing, then raised its head to convey something to Xu Zirong.

Xu Zirong was a little surprised: "This thing is also effective on blood beasts? Could it be that these are all..." After speaking, his expression suddenly became ugly.

The blood beast was only interested in blood essence, and the blood mouse was very excited, which meant that this layer of secretion was probably made of flesh and blood.

The blood-sucking insects feed on living things, that is to say, at least [-]% of the dark red ground is the death of human monks.

It's no wonder Xu Zirong's complexion is not good. What they are stepping on is equivalent to countless dead bones, but the dead bones are still human remains, but these things...

Xu Zirong kept his face away silently, even though he and those dead monks had never met before, they were both human beings, yet they were reduced to food for blood-sucking insects, and even the corpses after death were used as utensils to stimulate blood-sucking insects, it was too embarrassing sad.

"Why are blood-sucking worms less patrolling?"

The two walked forward for a while, but the number of blood-sucking worm patrols encountered on the road was actually less than that of the outside of the controlled area.

"Could it be that there is no food?" Xu Zirong guessed.

Xu Ziyan thought about it for a while: "Speaking of it... the area under the control of blood-sucking insects seems to have been established about two years after the outbreak of the two blood-sucking insects, right? Forget it, they should have been eaten long ago, so how have these blood-sucking insects survived for so many years? They are not like the man-faced spider, which has the habit of storing food."

Xu Zirong was reminded by his brother, and he also noticed the abnormality of this matter, but on weekdays, most of the monks fought blood-sucking insects on the periphery, and the only few high-ranking monks sneaked into the central area also happened in the early days of the war. , There are still many creatures living in this area, so no one has noticed that this blood-sucking worm has had no food source for a long time.

"Buzz..."

The sound of crawling insects alerted the two brothers immediately. They looked at each other, immediately restrained their breath, and hid themselves in the canopy of a big tree.

The entire blood-sucking worm group can be divided into many different types, the most numerous of which are the lowest-level worms and the shadow worms spawned by the worms.

These huge numbers of bugs have taken on the tasks that all cannon fodder troops need to undertake. In the past, most of these bugs would swarm the front line, just waiting for a human monk to appear, and then they would swarm up and kill or be killed. die.

But this situation changed after the appearance of those intelligent bug commanders.

Many worms were scattered to different areas, taking on the responsibility of patrolling and guarding.They patrol along a fixed area, killing any enemies that do not belong to the Zerg. Whenever they see a large area of ​​thousands of dark red bugs crawling on the ground, that kind of scene is enough to make the patients with dense phobia faint on the spot past.

Xu Ziyan doesn't have mass phobia, but he also finds this kind of scene disgusting. During the previous infiltration process, they also encountered similar patrols several times, and most of them were dodged by them. After all, the level of these bugs is very low. , The five senses are not too sharp, the chance of finding them is very small.

But it happened—they encountered different enemies today.

"Huh?" Xu Zirong's heart moved, and he suddenly raised his head to look in the direction of the swarm: "Brother, look at that worm!"

Xu Ziyan looked in the direction of his fingers, and among the red flesh worms wriggling all over the ground, there were actually a few that were different from other worms.

From the appearance of these insects, they are somewhat similar to praying mantises. They can walk upright, and their two forelimbs are very developed.Moreover, there are two small meat wings on their two forelimbs that are constantly vibrating, which is very conspicuous.

With the vibration of their fleshy wings, those blood-sucking insects that resembled praying mantises turned their heads in the direction of Xu Ziyan and the others at the same time. The big tree where Xu Ziyan and the others were hiding rushed over.

"We were discovered," Xu Zirong said.

"Those two bugs are weird. We didn't have that kind of bug in the bug swarm we encountered before." Xu Ziyan had a serious expression on his face. "Catch one and take it back to have a look."

"Okay." Xu Zirong nodded, and then suddenly wanted to get out, and several seeds popped out in the air, forming a large straw net on the ground before his body landed.

This is a plant specially cultivated by him to kill the cannon fodder troops of blood-sucking insects. This kind of grass net is based on the seeds of Thousand Wisps Grass (yes, it is the kind planted on Gao Yi), and it has the effect on blood. inborn desire.

And Xu Zirong accelerated the bifurcation speed of this kind of grass net, forming a huge net surface and laying it on the ground. Unless those worms and shadow worms can fly, otherwise, if you want to attack him, you have to step through this death trap .

The Zerg have flying groups, but they obviously never mix with the low-level worms. These worms and shadow worms don't have what can be called intelligence, and those mantis insects seem to have limited intelligence and can only find Xu Ziyan and the others existed, but they didn't respond to the straw net that suddenly appeared.

The blood-sucking worm wriggled extremely fast, and rushed to Xu Zirong's eyes almost in the blink of an eye.

Xu Zirong showed a disgusted expression on his face, twisted his fingers slightly, and the whole straw net suddenly burst into a layer of bright green light.

Those fine grass threads were like the hair of a banshee, tightly entangled the blood-sucking worms, and when the tip of the grass pierced into the blood-sucking worms, the whole grass net was instantly stained with a layer of blood.

The blood-sucking worms poured into the grass net one after another, and the mutated thousand strands of silk grass nourished by fresh blood kept spurting out more grass threads. As one ebbed and the other grew, the team of blood-sucking worms was quickly exhausted. Xu Ziyan alone caught those praying mantises.

"Basically, low-level worms are harmless to us. In other words, without a commander, these cannon fodder are nothing more than cannon fodder." Xu Ziyan looked at the large area while holding the stunned praying mantis worms. The nourished and bright grass net made her face twitch uncontrollably.

Xu Zirong, who can cultivate wood plants like this, is probably the only one who has practiced the Blood Sea Heart Sutra...

Speaking of which, aren't wood cultivators generally peaceful in character?Why can Xu Zirong, a blackened snake spirit, mutate wood spells like this?

Thinking about how I wanted him to become a medical practitioner in the past, I was so weak... With Xu Zirong's character, no matter how gentle a plant is, he can give birth to a murderous aura!

"Let's go. Keep moving forward." After passing the mantis worms by Mr. Fangge and watching the little god tree branch out a root to tie up the mantis worms, Xu Ziyan looked at the map and finally found the mine. in the direction.

"There is still about a day's journey."

"Well, brother, let's slow down a bit. I always feel that the insects in this area are a bit weird. The praying mantis just now seems to have never appeared before, right?"

"Yeah." Xu Ziyan nodded in agreement. Any kind of new worms may bring huge losses to the alliance. The last time the command worms set up an ambush caused the alliance to lose a lot of monks, and now there is an exploration type again. The bug, this not only made Xu Ziyan's heart sink.

A single type of blood-sucking worm has already caused a lot of trouble to humans. If the female worm can catalyze more types of worms——

——Thinking of those multi-army coordinated combat exercises in modern warfare, Xu Ziyan couldn't help but fight a cold war. If that time really comes, I'm afraid the monk alliance will be in big trouble.

Today's monks basically don't have the concept of fighting with a large army. Almost all monks spontaneously form small teams of five to ten people. , This mode of team combat can't play any role at all, and it will be crushed directly.

Even the monks of the same sect may not have conducted coordinated drills. Compared with the diversity and complexity of human minds, the unity of bugs and fear of death are undoubtedly the favorite characteristics of all commanders.

"I hope...it won't turn out like this." Xu Ziyan muttered to himself with a bitter face.

He had only been a soldier for two years and was lucky enough to participate in an exercise, so he was more sensitive to this kind of thing.But if you want to talk about command ability, then he absolutely doesn't have it.Therefore, if the insects really change their offensive style, the cultivators will probably be at a disadvantage for a long time. If they can't even find an excellent commander, then I'm afraid there will be no need for other demons to descend. A small blood-sucking worm can kill all the humans in the Xuanyu Territory.

"Brother... don't worry, there will always be a solution." Xu Zirong patted his brother's back lightly. He could feel Xu Ziyan's thoughts, so he naturally understood his distress.

In this Profound Rain Region, monks don't have the meaning of army at all. For them, as long as they have enough strength, all armies are like chickens and dogs in front of them, so they look down on such large-scale battles.

Xu Ziyan patted his younger brother's shoulder with a wry smile, the horror of legion combat was beyond the imagination of local monks.Now he only hopes that his guess is wrong, but combined with the information they got, and thinking about the command bug, he really can't guarantee that this kind of thing will never happen.

"Anyway, let's go take a look at that mine first. We'll talk about the new bug type when we get back." Xu Ziyan pulled himself together, and the two quickly walked through the forest.
