Dungeon Ant Nest

Boom!!

The Battle Skill that had dissipated on Xi Ye's body recovered again, and a faint red color emerged on his skin.

He stomped on the ground, his body instantly rushing towards Lu Yuan, his long sword slashing horizontally towards Lu Yuan's neck.

The greatsword cut through the air, bringing with it a howling gale.

Lu Yuan's expression turned serious, and he raised his sword to meet it.

Clang!

Lu Yuan felt a great force coming, much stronger than before.

His expression changed slightly, and he took two steps back.

On the other hand, Xi Ye didn't retreat a single step.

Seeing this, Xi Ye revealed a grim smile.

He snorted coldly, and his long sword slashed towards Lu Yuan again.

The attacks came wave after wave, continuous and unending.

Lu Yuan's expression changed slightly as he continuously blocked the attacks, his footsteps constantly retreating.

Clang!

Another collision, and Lu Yuan took another step back, nearing the wall.

At this moment, Xi Ye moved horizontally to the side.

Lu Yuan heard a sharp sound of air being torn and felt the scorching heat.

Crap!

His expression changed, and he quickly dodged to the side.

Whoosh!

An arrow with a dark light streaked past Lu Yuan's shoulder, tearing a gash in the armor on his shoulder.

Fortunately, the arrow didn't hit Lu Yuan's body.

Otherwise, even with his current defense, he would still be injured.

A Fireball streaked past Lu Yuan's side and landed on the wall behind Lu Yuan.

Boom!!

The Fireball exploded, and a wave of fire with surging heat gushed out, heavily landing on Lu Yuan's back.

Lu Yuan's body couldn't help but take two steps forward.

And Xi Ye, who had dodged earlier, appeared again at this moment.

His cat eyes carried a cold, playful look, his hands gripping the sword hilt tightly, and his long sword slashed towards Lu Yuan's waist.

Lu Yuan's pupils shrank, his whole body tensed, he stepped down, and his body moved horizontally for a distance.

The longsword slashed across his waist, cutting open his skin, and a wisp of blood spilled out.

Lu Yuan breathed a slight sigh of relief, thankfully he had practiced his footwork beforehand.

Otherwise, he might not have been able to dodge that attack.

Having dodged Xi Ye's attack, Lu Yuan retreated a few steps.

He looked at Xi Ye, Molly, and Nan Qi in the distance, a cold look appearing on his face.

A bottle of light black potion appeared in his hand, and he tilted his head back and drank it.

Ordinary Quality Defense Potion.

After drinking the potion, Lu Yuan could clearly feel the potion turning into an invisible wave of spirit energy within his body, forming a special barrier.

He could feel that this barrier greatly increased his defensive capabilities.

An Ordinary Quality Defense Potion can increase defensive capabilities by about 20%.

How strong was Lu Yuan's defense now?

Increasing it by another 20% made it quite ridiculous.

It's just that the price is too high, 10,000 yuan for a bottle.

Thinking of the price, a look of heartache flashed in his eyes.

Damn it, he had worked so hard for so long, and the price of the materials he obtained was only a little over 10,000.

It's all gone now.

He looked at Xi Ye and the others, his eyes filled with intense killing intent.

It's all because of these bastards!

Why did they have to use potions?!

Seeing Lu Yuan drink the Defense Amplification Potion, the expressions of Xi Ye and the others changed slightly.

"Damn it! This guy actually bought a potion!"

"Xi Ye!"

Molly called out from a distance.

Xi Ye looked at Lu Yuan, his eyes flashed, and he nodded:

"Withdraw!"

He ran towards Molly and Nan Qi.

Lu Yuan's face twitched as he watched them run away.

"Damn it, I drank a potion and lost 10,000, if I let you run away, how can I face anyone?!"

He directly rushed towards the direction the three were running.

He absolutely couldn't let them run away this time!

Just as he rushed out, Lu Yuan saw that the three people had already run more than thirty meters.

He had to admit, his speed was indeed inferior to the three.

Especially since both the Cat Person Swordsman and the Cat Person Archer had drunk Speed Potions.

Although the Cat Person Element Warrior hadn't drunk a potion, he was being carried by the Cat Person Swordsman, so his speed wasn't slow either.

If Lu Yuan wanted to catch up with them, he would probably have to drink an Excellent Speed Amplification Potion.

However, that thing cost 50,000 a bottle!

He had already lost 10,000 now. If he killed those three Hunters and nothing good dropped, would he lose another 50,000?

He really couldn't accept that.

Most importantly, that was his trump card for escaping when he encountered danger. Using it here was too unworthy.

But if he didn't chase now, he would be unwilling.

He could only grit his teeth and continue chasing after the three Cat Person Hunters.

At the same time, he secretly made a decision in his heart.

Once he broke through to the first level, the gene he inscribed would definitely be speed-type!

The two sides chased and fled, and before long, Lu Yuan discovered that the distance was getting further and further.

The three Cat Person Hunters were already about fifty meters away from him.

In a short period of time, he had been left behind by twenty meters.

"Am I a turtle or something?!"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but curse himself.

The firelight in the dungeon passage was dim, and the distance was darkness. If they ran a little further, Lu Yuan probably wouldn't even be able to see them.

Fortunately, there were no other forks in the road here, otherwise, he would probably have been left behind by these three Cat Person Hunters by now.

However, if this continued, he would encounter a fork in the road sooner or later.

Then it would only be a matter of time before he was left behind.

Just as Lu Yuan's face was unsightly, a low roar suddenly came from the distance.

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up. It was the sound of the Little Stone Man.

He saw two piles of gravel in the distance, and the Little Stone Man's stones flew towards the three Cat Person Hunters.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but reveal a smile.

However, as soon as his smile appeared, two Fireballs bombarded the gravel piles in succession.

Before the two gravel piles could complete their transformation, they turned into a pile of real gravel.

There was no need for the Cat Person Swordsman and the Cat Person Archer to take action.

The Cat Person Element Warrior who was being carried could completely free his hand to deal with the fierce beasts he encountered.

Judging by their proficiency, these three Cat Person Hunters have probably been hunted down quite a few times.

Lu Yuan's smile froze on his face.

The Little Stone Man was too weak.

The current strength of these three Cat Person Hunters was not much different from his after drinking the potion.

The Little Stone Man simply couldn't stop them.

Lu Yuan's heart turned cold again.

However, Lu Yuan still didn't give up chasing.

He was still a little unwilling in his heart.

What if this road was a dead end?

Then how would these three bastards run away?

Lu Yuan was a little expectant.

After running for a while, the three Cat Person Hunters got closer and closer to the darkness.

Nan Qi, lying on Xi Ye's back, used a Fireball to kill a Black Scorpion that was trying to sneak attack them.

He turned his head and glanced behind him.

Lu Yuan, who was more than seventy meters away, was staring at them coldly.

Nan Qi was happy in his heart, grinning provocatively:

"Human! With your turtle-like speed, you want to catch up with us?! Maybe next life!"

Molly, carrying a longbow on her back, rolled her eyes at Nan Qi:

"We haven't escaped yet."

Xi Ye's face was indifferent: "This human probably hates us to death."

"There's no way around it, after all, we've run into him twice. I didn't expect his strength to improve so quickly. Last time, he had a hard time dealing with just Xi Ye alone."

Molly's face was ugly:

"This guy is probably a genius."

Nan Qi grinned, somewhat unconcerned:

"So what if he's a genius? At worst, we'll just avoid him in the future. He's a Guardian type, so slow, how could he possibly hunt us down?"

"Yeah, let's escape this time first."

"Why isn't there a fork in the road yet..."

Molly frowned and spoke.

However, before she could finish her words, the ground she had just stepped on suddenly cracked, and a large pit appeared, and she fell down.

Not only her, but also Xi Ye beside her and Nan Qi on Xi Ye's back fell down as well.

They dropped about five meters further down, and their feet landed on the ground once more.

However, this time, their faces were pale.

"Damn it! It's an ant nest!"

"Are we really that unlucky?! We actually ran into an ant nest?!"

Molly and Nan Qi's eyes were filled with despair.

Xi Ye's mouth twitched violently as well.

He looked at the passages on both sides around them.

There were no torches in the passages within the ant nest, and even with the enhanced vision of a Gene Warrior, they could only see a distance of no more than five meters.

The distance was pitch black.

However, the extraordinary hearing of a Gene Warrior allowed him to hear rustling sounds rapidly approaching.

Xi Ye's pupils constricted: "Let's find a way to get back up first!"

"No, that human is up there! He can't wait to tear us apart!"

Nan Qi quickly said.

Xi Ye's mouth twitched.

Just then, Molly's expression changed drastically: "They're here!"

Hearing this, Nan Qi and Xi Ye's expressions also changed.

They looked around at the dim passages on both sides, and ants with yellow bodies, about a meter tall, resembling giant dogs, crawled out from the depths of the passages.

Dungeon Sand Ants.

Their strength ranged from 10% to 99% Tempering, and they were one of the most powerful groups in the Sandstone Dungeon.

The ant nests of the Sandstone Dungeon could be said to be distributed throughout the entire Sandstone Dungeon.

The deep, dark eyes of the Dungeon Sand Ants stared intently at the three Cat Person Hunters, their antennae constantly shaking.

After a moment, several Dungeon Sand Ants let out screams and rushed madly towards the three Cat Person Hunters.

Pheromone identification: They were intruders!

Thanks to the reward from the big boss Krius~~~
