Chapter 1,370 An Unexpected Gain
Although these ghost mantises are not very intelligent, they are still able to command and forbid.
So each of these front-line Nether Mantises lurked in the grass without making any sound.
When Ye Chen arrived, he immediately found three black knights riding tall skeleton horses in front of him.
Each of these skeleton horses is more than three feet tall and five feet long, with black flames burning in the horse's head and four hooves.
The skeleton horse is riding a knight in black armor. This kind of black armor is almost armed from head to heel. The skeleton horse is hung with a knight's gun more than three feet long, and is holding a black sword in its hand. It is on the grassland ahead. Keep swimming in it.
These ghost knights were extremely strange, with evil spirits and deep breaths on their bodies. They were not creatures from the ancient world. An Xiaoxi was immediately frightened, and subconsciously leaned against Ye Chen, and whispered: "Master, these Is the Nether Knight so ugly?"
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Are they ugly? Do you think these Nether Knights are uglier than Nether Mantis?"
An Xiaoxi nodded confidently and patted the giant ghost mantis beneath him: "Of course, look at how cute my little flower is. It's much stronger than that ghost thing."
Ye Chen lowered his head to look at the ferocious giant mantis, and was speechless. Although after subduing them, the Nether Mantis became a lot docile in front of them, but it definitely didn't match the word "cute". Moreover, An Xiaoxi actually named him Xiaohua, which is really disgusting.
Then he looked up at the three Nether Knights and sneered: "Now let us see how powerful these Nether Knights are!"
The spies who were sent out told Ye Chen that there were only these three Nether Knights within dozens of miles.
In this case, Ye Chen didn't even bother to test, and directly ordered ten ghost mantises to surround them, then suddenly jumped out from the grass, and launched a crazy attack on the three ghost knights.
When the Nether Knight realized that these ghost mantises dared to cross the border, he immediately let out an angry roar and waved the black sword in his hand without hesitation to fight with these ghost mantises.
Ye Chen squinted his eyes and watched on the wall. Then he realized that these Nether Knights were not simple. Both the strength of their impact and the angle and speed of their black swords were much more powerful than those of the Nether Mantis.
The long black sword was made of who knows what material, but it was extremely sharp. When it cut on the Netherworld Mantis, it made a violent roaring sound, and every time it could tear a gash in the Mantis' body.
Fortunately, the number of ghost mantises was dominant. Ten ghost mantises took turns attacking the three ghost knights frantically and without fear of death.
The three Nether Knights were so angry that they screamed. Ye Chen couldn't understand their language and didn't know what they were shouting. But at the moment, it was obvious that these ten Nether Mantises had the upper hand.
And these Nether Mantises are not particular at all. Some attack Nether Knights, and some attack skeleton horses. One of the skeleton horses' front legs was directly cut off by the Nether Mantis's huge blade arm, leaving only three. His legs were wobbly when he stood, as if he was about to fall down at any moment.
And these ten Nether Mantises attacked even more crazily. In less than two breaths, these three Nether Knights were thrown to the ground, and then they were ruthlessly pulled to pieces by the huge sword arms flying in the sky. .
Ye Chen noticed that when the three Nether Knights died, a white ball of light suddenly rose from their bodies and floated unconsciously in the air.
And those Nether Mantises didn't even look at them, they pounced directly on the corpses of those Nether Knights, biting wildly. The three skeleton horses plus three Nether Knights, together with their armor, were quickly killed. These ten Netherworld Praying Mantises have finished eating.
When the Nether Mantis chewed the knight's spear and the black long sword, it made a rattling sound, which made Ye Chen shudder. The teeth of these Nether Mantis are so good!
Then he made a casual move, and the white ball of light immediately flew into his hand.
Ye Chen analyzed it and found that these three white light clusters were all filled with pure energy. He seemed to feel the eagerness coming from his body.
After checking again and again to make sure there was no hidden danger, Ye Chen tentatively absorbed the three white light clusters.
When he finished absorbing it, he was suddenly shocked and his eyes widened in surprise.
Because he found that after devouring these three white light clusters, his cultivation and vitality did not increase at all, but the range covered by his consciousness actually expanded by three meters.
This is really incredible. Ye Chen's spiritual consciousness has not increased for a long time. He originally thought that only after he broke through to Daluo Jinxian, his spiritual consciousness would skyrocket again.
After entering the misty swamp, due to the unique laws of heaven and earth here, his consciousness was suppressed to the extreme and could only cover a very small area. But now he absorbed the light group exploded by the Nether Knight and miraculously expanded outside. Three meters.
Although compared to the outside world, where Ye Chenshi could easily cover hundreds of thousands of kilometers, it was actually insignificant.
But mosquito legs are still meat no matter how small they are, not to mention that this is just the beginning. Ye Chen can't help but look forward to it. If he kills 10,000 Nether Knights or even 100,000 Nether Knights, how far will his consciousness grow?
At this moment, the ten Netherworld Praying Mantises had already devoured the Netherworld Knight.
Suddenly, Ye Chen seemed to have an illusion. He realized that the size of these ten ghost mantises had grown by dozens of centimeters.
This was really an unexpected discovery. Ye Chen rubbed his eyes hard and looked at them carefully. Then he realized that he had indeed seen it right. The size of these ten Nether Mantises had indeed grown again.
This discovery made Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that this ghost knight was really full of treasures. Ye Chen already knew from Xiao Hei that the size of these ghost mantises grew too slowly.
If a two-foot-long Nether Mantis wants to grow to about ten feet, it will take at least 100 years.
Each of the twenty-foot-or-so Nether Mantises around him has survived for more than 300 years.
This is because they have an inexhaustible supply of raw minerals to eat every day, but they did not expect that their ten Nether Mantises only ate three Nether Knights, and there was such a significant increase.
