Chapter 1096: A Bystander Used as Cannon Fodder in the Wireless Stream Dimension (19)
Xie Chenzhou naturally thought of this as well. Without even thinking, he released his grip on Miaomiao's wrist and prepared to reach out and grab the stick from Tan Jiashu's hand as quickly as possible to smash that disgusting bug.
Naturally, the dagger in Miaomiao's hand was her life-saving charm, and he would never touch it. This stick was just right for dealing with a disgusting, thick-skinned worm.
Everything happens in a flash of lightning.
Faced with such a scene, others might want to shrink into a corner, but Miaomiao was disgusted by the insect. Sometimes, when you are disgusted to the point of being repulsed, the revulsion becomes courage.
However, Miaomiao never had a suitable opportunity, especially since her hands felt like they were being clamped by pliers.
But not now. At this moment, Miao Miao's wrist, which had been gripped by the other party all the way, was suddenly released. Before Xie Chenzhou could snatch the stick from his older brother, Miao Miao took advantage of this brief gap and pushed off the ground with both feet. Her body was like a nimble cheetah, and she rushed straight towards the approaching giant insect!
You disgusted me! Damn game!
That seemingly ordinary dagger suddenly revealed an astonishing sharpness.
She darted out so fast that neither Xie Chenzhou nor Tan Jiashu could stop her in the half-second of stunned silence.
Miaomiao's eyes were sharp as knives. She didn't care about being afraid anymore. She aimed at the weak point where the head and body of the big bug that was almost touching her face when it was doing a standing long jump. She suddenly exerted force with her wrist and plunged the dagger in. Then she turned it around in the weak part of the bug!
With a "sizzle," a jet of dark green slime gushed out. Miaomiao had anticipated this and rolled to the side the moment she finished slicing, narrowly avoiding the splash of slime and landing steadily to the side.
When the large worm's slime dripped onto the ground, its head and tail separated, leaving a disgusting puddle of slime on the ground.
However, Miaomiao didn't think that this disgusting big bug could die so easily; if it were that simple, it wouldn't be a game.
Sure enough, after watching the enormous insect's body twitch violently in front of her, Miaomiao noticed that tiny, tentacle-like limbs were stirring at the broken neck, as if trying to grow a new head.
From the moment Miaomiao pulled out the dagger to kill the insect to the moment the insect was about to grow a new head, the description seemed to take a long time, but it was actually only two seconds.
The green beetles behind them were less than ten meters away.
A dense green mass slowly began to gather at the entrance of the alley, and the buzzing sound made people's eardrums hurt.
Miaomiao didn't dare to delay, nor did she intend to use her dagger to kill the giant worm directly.
Without hesitation, Miaomiao rushed forward again, gripping the dagger, and delivered two more blows to the giant insect's body. She even severed several of its long legs, completely cutting off its ability to continue crawling for the foreseeable future.
"go!"
Xie Chenzhou strode forward, grabbed Miaomiao who had just retreated, and forcefully pulled her hand, rushing with Tan Jiashu toward the narrow side of the alley where only one person could pass at a time.
Surprisingly, the green beetles that had been chasing closely did not turn around and follow into the side road. Instead, like sharks that had smelled blood, they swarmed and pounced on the large beetle.
The swarm of insects instantly covered the large worm's body, emitting a piercing gnawing sound. The gushing slime was quickly sucked up by the insects. From a distance, the swarm looked like a writhing green carpet, with the raised sections in the middle gradually being gnawed into flat ground, a disgusting and eerie sight.
That's right, what she wanted was for those green beetles to bite off the body of the potentially regenerating giant insect, thus extinguishing its life force.
From the very beginning, when she turned around, she noticed the slime dripping from the giant insect onto the ground, which was the favorite food of these green beetles. They probably didn't bite it before because they couldn't break through its defenses. But Miao Miao's dagger, just as Xie Chenzhou said, was the trump card to break through its defenses.
With the food already on the table, the green beetle naturally had to eat the delicious food, even though Miaomiao only felt disgusted.
The three of them ran along the side road for a while longer, until they could no longer hear the gnawing sounds behind them, and then they slowed down a little.
The surrounding environment had changed. The once airtight holly passageway had disappeared, replaced by a huge stone passage with rough, cold stone walls and dark marks in the crevices, gradually overlapping with the giant stone maze they had initially seen in the outer area.
This is indeed good news, as it means they have finally escaped the Holly Land where they were previously trapped by the ghost wall, and no longer need to waste time going around in circles in vain.
Xie Chenzhou continued to use the "stop, turn, and look back" method. Whenever he encountered a fork in the road, he would stop and observe first. He would then turn around decisively after confirming that there were no loop marks. If he was really unsure, he would temporarily turn back and re-examine the route.
With this backup plan, the three of them moved faster and faster, and their tense nerves relaxed a little.
However, the dangers of this giant stone labyrinth have never ceased.
On their journey, they also encountered a group of zombies that looked like zombies with red eyes. When they saw them, it was as if they had seen some kind of big pig's trotter. Not only did they drool, but they also ran around crookedly, trying to bite holes in their bodies and eat their flesh.
However, all three were skilled martial artists. Xie Chenzhou, who was unarmed, even snatched a dagger from the other party and directly cut off his head.
Their speed was faster than the combined speed of the brother and sister. By the time they finished dealing with the zombies, another twenty minutes had passed. Fortunately, Miaomiao found a Warrior's Star on one of the zombies...
With such a good thing happening, let alone if the other party was a zombie, even if the other party was a toilet, Miaomiao would still have to scoop it out.
However, because of Xie Chenzhou's intervention, inexplicably, it was her brother who ended up taking the money, while she was protected by two men behind her. Xie Chenzhou even found a handkerchief from somewhere and was wiping her hands.
“Those things are filthy. If they have a virus, your brother will be devastated. Let us handle it. The older people are, the tougher their skin is.”
Miaomiao was confused, but she knew that Xie Chenzhou was doing it for their own good.
Unfortunately, aside from that one remaining Warrior's Star, there was nothing else. But at least it's certain that these zombies were originally players who came to participate in this game, and later, they died in the game and were simply wasted by this damn game...
After encountering the zombies, they walked and stopped for a long time, their hearts filled with growing anxiety. Even Tan Jiashu entrusted his son to Xie Chenzhou...
