Although Lin Fei cast lightness skills and Wind-Riding Technique on everyone, Lower Spirit's traveling speed was always limited. This forced Lin Fei to slow down and take care of their traveling rhythm.
Otherwise, if there was any danger and he was not present, all twenty of his subordinates might be wiped out.
Lin Fei couldn't help but sigh, thinking that it would be great if there were arcane spaceships or battleships. Even if they were flying at low altitude, their speed would not be so slow.
Through conversations with prisoners on the road, he also learned more information about Blood-Colored Bug Ridge. For example, during the day, there are also various mutant creatures in the jungle, but they are rare in number, and they are not as ferocious and powerful as the night beasts.
In the past, Daianaluvi dragged a Stars down. I don't know if it was her or the influence of the Stars. Blood-Colored Bug Ridge would completely swallow up the stars and moonlight falling in the sky at night, plunging the world into darkness.
As it absorbs the starlight and moonlight, the energy emitted by Diana Luwei becomes stronger, covering the entire Blood-Colored Bug Ridge, forming a special environment adapted to the survival activities of night beasts - there has never been a case of night beasts leaving Blood-Colored Bug Ridge, which is enough to prove that these mutated monsters are not suitable for survival in the outside world.
Over the long years, the night beasts have also figured out a set of survival rules.
During the day, Diana Luwei's influence weakens, and many night beasts will retreat to their lairs near her. The closer they are to her, the smaller the adverse effects will be, or even no negative effects at all.
The night beasts distributed in distant places can only do the next best thing. Like dung beetles, they collect the solid bloody mucus all over the ground, compress and condense it to build special nests, and then inhabit them during the day.
After all, it is also a product formed under the infection of Diana Luwei Qi machine, and it has a little bit of the aura of Starry Sky Insect Race. It has a certain protective effect for the night beasts generated by the infection.
"These night beasts are so rampant, Sin City is letting them go unchecked?" Gu Xiaoyu asked.
The Arcane Race prisoner shook his head and said, "How to care? There are four heavenly kings in Sin city, and the night beasts also have five strong men in the Earth Spirit realm. In addition, Sin city is surrounded by spiritual light mushrooms, which can guarantee the safety of the city. Who is willing to fight to the death with the night beasts?"
"Just get used to it. This is the situation at Blood-Colored Bug Ridge. It has been going on for many years."
"All in all, Blood-Colored Bug Ridge is relatively safe during the day. As long as you don't get close to Diana Luwei, you won't encounter the vast and ferocious night beasts. Generally speaking, as long as you don't encounter people from the city of Sin and don't take the initiative to enter the lair where the night beasts live, a person like the Little Marquis can already walk sideways."
Lin Fei heard this, but he was thoughtful and suddenly asked, "Then do you know where there is a nest where night beasts live?"
The Arcane Race prisoner's face stiffened for a moment, and then he looked at Lin Fei with a horrified look on his face, only to see that the latter's expression was calm and determined, and he obviously had something on his mind.
In his opinion, many night beasts at the Upper Spirit realm were killed in battle last night, and I am afraid that many night beast nests are leaderless. Now if you go into them and plunder them, you will surely gain something.
"I know where the mutated centipede's lair is!" one of the prisoners said.
"Go and have a look tomorrow." Lin Fei made a decision and decided to collect energy crystals today.
About twenty minutes later, the crystal vein appeared in front of everyone.
It occupies an area about the size of four football fields, with a pitted surface and only a few scattered open-pit crystal mines. It is not difficult to see that all the crystal mines on the surface have been collected, and what is left are completely useless waste products. The energy contained is extremely weak, and it is estimated that it can only keep the arcane light on for half a day.
These prisoners were sensible and immediately took out their mining picks and prepared to start working.
Firstly, it facilitates collection and excavation, and secondly, it combines technology and arcane abilities, and has nano-repair technology. Even if a complete crystal ore is dug into two sections with a pickaxe, the crack will be instantly covered with a repair film to prevent energy from escaping and leaking.
It's a pity that their mining pickaxes are not enough, and not everyone has one.
Lin Fei walked into this area first without taking the mining pick. He felt a vague tingling sensation again, but this feeling quickly subsided.
Just as the prisoner said, his Arcane Core went silent, unable to activate any arcane energy.
After Lower Spirit came here, his body suddenly experienced a series of reactions, including coughing, itching, and his skin stinging as if being pricked by needles.
"Hurry up." Lin Fei said, and walked underground along the dug passage.
When he stepped inside, he heard a "squeaking" sound and saw many strange bugs the size of cockroaches on the stone walls and the ground.
Soul-eating insects.
They feed on various strange stones and minerals that contain energy. Many soul-eating insects obviously gnaw at energy crystals, so that their bodies have some signs of crystallization. The greater the degree of crystallization, the more energy crystals they have swallowed.
When they saw the intruder coming, they immediately screamed angrily, flapped their wings and flew across the sky, intending to gnaw the intruder with their sharp teeth.
If you can usually use arcane magic, Lin Fei can kill them all easily.
But now I can only rely on my physical body, which is quite troublesome. Is it possible to slap him to death with one slap after another?
But this matter is not enough for Lin Fei to worry about.
He stood calmly on the spot, his hands behind his back, motionless.
On both sides behind Lin Fei, God Race and the prisoners of the Multi-Eye Tribe rushed out, carrying a wild electromagnetic weapon like a heavy Gauss Cannon, and directly pulled the trigger to blast!
When a strong current passes through the coil surrounding the magnetic cylinder, the strong mutual magnetic force causes the bullet placed in it to be ejected at extremely high speed.
Theoretically speaking, if the energy is large enough, the initial velocity of the bullet can be close to the speed of light. At this terrifying speed, even a coin can have huge destructive power - that is, a certain scientific electromagnetic gun.
"Chichichi--"
Thousands of orange-red rays of light were as thin as needles, forming a gorgeous death storm. Under the omnidirectional fire from the two prisoners' muzzles, the large number of soul-eating insects let out a shrill scream, and their bodies suddenly exploded into pieces and scattered all over the sky.
After the ceasefire, the cannon continued to rotate slowly, with plumes of green smoke emitting from the barrel.
Faced with the shattered insect corpses all over the ground, many people actually picked them up in large handfuls on the spot, either putting them away or putting them directly into their mouths to chew, making a crunching sound, and then swallowed them with satisfaction.
After all, they are bugs that feed on energy crystals, and their bodies also contain a lot of energy.
