Chapter 58: Assassination
After Xue Hua obtained the accurate information of the demon legion left by Cui Fanke through the mimic chicks, he immediately withdrew all the mimic chicks from the city, no way, the number of legendary-level evil deeds in this city is really amazing, if the mimic chicks are left in the city like this, they will not be able to find out when they will be.
He managed to secretly get information about the Hell's arrangement for the swarm, but he didn't want to cause Mephisto to change his plans because of the leak.
After withdrawing the mimic chicks, Xue Hua evacuated from the vicinity of Cui Vanke, and he planned to take advantage of the last bit of preparation time left in the war to take a look at the Kurast harbor to see if he could find an opportunity to use the mimic chicks to sneak into the harbor to reconnoiter the defense configuration of the demon legion or something.
With the help of the network of tunnel insects, which had been roughly framed by the swarm, he quickly crossed the entire rainforest, and with the prompting of the king insects, he left the tunnel insect network in a secret insect nest more than ten kilometers away from the port of Kurast and rereached the surface.
"Juggernaut, eleven kilometers west of this hive is one of the enemy's main strongholds, and according to the detection of the monitoring king worm and the experimental data of Abasser, a large area of the forest has been contaminated by the enemy's special methods.
There may be a lot of local scout patrol sentry and you need to be extra careful. ”
Isha cautionarily reminded.
"I see, is there any conclusion to Abbather's experiment on the Demon Land?"
Xue Hua waved his hand to summon a cockroach, jumped lightly on its back carapace, and asked in the mind of the main nest while ordering the cockroach to head in the direction of the Kurast harbor.
"The currently known characteristics of this sample are strong negative energy tolerance, repulsion of other substances, and strong pollution and encroachment, which means that this soil is a special substance that has been specially cultivated to pollute and encroach on other lands.
Unlike the swarm's blanket, this material is not a living thing, but a mineral residue that is extremely radioactive and contaminating and assimilating.
Those creatures called 'demons' will soar in combat effectiveness and various biological indicators in their bodies under the radioactivity of this mineral residue, but other creatures will be fatal when exposed to the radiation of this mineral residue for a long time.
Abbathhar has fine-tuned the biology of the swarm based on the currently known traits, and Zerg units will not be affected by the 'Magical Land'.
In addition, Abbather used the bio amplification port left over from the improvement of the fungus blanket during the previous nest evolution and upgrade to add a gene sequence to the fungus blanket that can assimilate and absorb the magic soil and inhibit its proliferation ability, so that if you decide to start attacking the stronghold, you can use the fungus blanket to compress the battle space of the 'demons'. ”
Isha informed Xue Hua of the research report that Abbather had given it earlier, letting him know that the swarm had a good way to clear the demonic soil.
"Excellent! Now let the surrounding shadow insects move, and cooperate with the mimic chicks to see if there is a chance to ......"
Rumble!!
"Damn! What's going on?! Xue Hua was just about to order the shadow insects to prepare to cooperate with the mimic chicks to invade the Kurast harbor, when a huge fire suddenly burst into the sky from the jungle around him, followed by the crazy hiss of the insect swarm and the fierce warning in the mind of the main nest.
"Juggernaut, please avoid it now! Assassins are coming! Judged to be 9.3 psionic level! Please avoid it now! ”
"Assassin! Damn it! Xue Hua was startled, but the cockroaches under him had already led him to stride towards the insect nest he had just left under Isha's order.
In the mind of the main nest, Xue Hua saw that the number of shadow worm troops guarding his safety was rapidly decreasing, and it was clear that the shadow worms were no match for the attacking assassins.
However, this is also expected, the other party is a legendary powerhouse, and it is very rare for the monitoring king worm to be able to detect his ambush in advance.
In the hidden insect nest in front, the insect mother there also quickly received the news that the master was attacked, and without saying a word, it rushed out of the underground hidden cave with all the troops, ready to come to meet Xue Hua.
The pit insects in the pit worm network also acted quickly, as long as they were given another ten seconds, Xue Hua could use the pit worms to perfectly avoid the inexplicable ambush that came this time.
However, at this moment, the cockroach under him suddenly screamed sharply, and suddenly lowered its body and stopped, but its sudden stop made Xue Hua not light, and he was thrown off the back armor by the cockroach without reacting.
"Wow! What is this for?! ”
"Hiss!!!"
Xue Hua half-sat up from the ground, still wondering why the cockroach suddenly threw him out, but saw that the cockroach he had just ridden had actually screamed and was cut in two from the middle.
A translucent figure emerged from the void beside the cockroach, dressed in a neat butler suit, with his shiny silver hair meticulously combed.
Xue Hua had seen this guy in the previous battle of the Kurast Mall through the Surveillance King Worm, and he was the Evil Covenanter Assassin who hadn't even made a few shots, known as the "Butcher Butler".
"Yo! Finally see you for what you really are! Our Demon God is impressed with you! ”
With a polite and detached standard butler-like smile on his face, Greek said to Xue Hua, who was slowly getting up.
If it weren't for the dangerous green glow on the two dark gold wrist knives in his hands, this guy would have looked like a noble butler who had come to invite his guests to a banquet at the Lord's house.
"Heh... Is it finally here? ”
Xue Hua wiped a handful of dust from his face and pulled his staff from his inventory.
"I'm still wondering when you hellish bastards will be willing to send legendary powerhouses to assassinate me!"
"Children, when your life hangs in the hands of others, it's not a good choice to speak provocatively!" Greck's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression did not change at all, but with a slight touch of his feet, his figure suddenly disappeared in place.
"Shh Xue Hua immediately understood the danger, but he didn't rush to use the Time Coffin, but lightly touched his right hand towards the position of the waist under the robe, and a light blue honeycomb-shaped energy shield instantly activated and protected him in it.
At the same time, Grek instantly appeared above Xue Hua's head, and the cold light on the fist sword in his hand flashed, and he did not hesitate to hit a lightning claw below.
Boom!!
A violent explosion exploded through the jungle, and a large number of dead branches and leaves were lifted from the ground into the air by the blast.
Greek felt that the hand was not right under the blow, and the distance of the attack seemed to be too close, and the legendary assassin who reacted quickly immediately understood that this blow was completely ineffective, and a shadow immediately appeared on his body, and he retreated from Xue Hua without hesitation.
At the moment when he retreated, two tentacles with sharp thorns at the tips burst out of the dead branches and leaves in the sky, and directly pierced a large tree with two people hugging each other behind him.
The big tree was broken in an instant, and the fallen trunk directly crushed another tree next to it, bringing up a large amount of mud and debris by the way.
