Chapter 1488 Dark River
"Crunch!"
The manticore bit down on the white flesh bug, and its sharp teeth directly cut off one third of its body.
Instead of chewing, it raised its head slightly and swallowed it directly. Then it took two more bites to eat the remaining parts of the meat worm.
After that, it ate three more meat bugs in one go, and then stopped with some unfinished thoughts.
"Woooo..."
The manticore looked at the honeydew ant, waved its tail in the air a few times, let out a piercing scream, and then pointed in the direction it came from.
As if they had received an order, the honeydew ants moved again, but compared to before, their movements were obviously much slower.
This made the scorpion monster very dissatisfied, and stretched its sharp tail towards them, scaring them so much that they subconsciously increased their speed.
As a result, he made a mistake while busy and let the things on his back fall to the ground. Whether it was a flesh bug or a honey sac, it was not easy to place it securely due to its shape.
"Woooo..."
The honeydew ant's mistake obviously made the scorpion monster very dissatisfied, and the speed of waving its tail in the air became faster. However, it seemed to understand that blindly seeking speed was not enough, and did not continue to force the honeydew ant.
In fact, there is no need for it to urge.
The honeydew ants that had dropped the meat worms and honey sacs were frightened half to death. They picked up the things as quickly as possible and crawled forward quickly. The other honeydew ants followed, and all the honeydew ants were killed in one fell swoop. The speed was increased.
The manticore followed leisurely beside the honeydew ant, as if it were an overseer.
Feng Yun continued to follow, but he became more cautious than before.
That manticore can scare honeydew ants like this, which seems to be something special. If you are not careful and its whereabouts are discovered by it, you will be in trouble.
I don't know if Feng Yun's caution played a role, but the manticore never noticed his presence.
Just like this, after walking forward for about three hundred feet, Feng Yun found that the front suddenly opened up, and the sound of water flow could be heard.
Feng Yun immediately focused his gaze and looked over, and found that the honeydew ants and the scorpion-tailed monster had entered a wider passage. There was a river in the middle of the passage, which was twenty feet wide and the current was quite fast.
"It's an underground river."
As soon as Fengyun saw the terrain clearly, he immediately understood where he had come.
After entering the underground river channel, the honeydew ants did not stop, but continued to move upstream along the river.
After walking another two or three hundred feet, he finally stopped.
"Cough cough cough..."
Almost at the same time that the honeydew ants stopped, Feng Yun heard the manticore making a sound similar to a cough, but it was extremely short and uncomfortable. It reminded him of a classic horror movie.
The cough seemed to be a secret signal. As soon as it sounded, the high rock wall beside the underground river changed, and manticores emerged from the holes one after another.
When they saw the honeydew ants below, their eyes all shone, they looked very excited, and they jumped down.
Facing so many manticores falling from the sky, the honeydew ants collapsed all of a sudden. Their legs could no longer support their bodies, and they all collapsed on the ground.
The manticores didn't pay attention to them, they were all busy eating.
Just like the first manticore, they pierced the bodies of the fleshy insects with their tail hooks, brought them to their mouths, and started feasting.
Even the manticore that appeared at the beginning also ate two meat bugs, making its belly bulge, as if it was pregnant.
After a hearty meal, the scorpion-tailed monster seemed very satisfied, and even lowered its raised tail hook.
Just like people, after eating and drinking enough, they will fall into a period of fatigue, laziness, lack of energy, and those scorpion tail hooks are too lazy to move.
Those honeydew ants didn't dare to be presumptuous in the slightest,
Everyone lay on the ground obediently.
Fengyun waited for ten minutes before the scorpion-tailed monsters made a new move. They drove the honeydew ants away and let them enter a cave in the lower section.
This cave is much wider than the holes that the manticores crawled out of, and three or four honeydew ants can crawl in side by side without any problem.
Not all the manticores followed the honeydew ants into the cave, there were only a few of them, and the others crawled back to the caves from which they crawled out.
Fengyun didn't pay too much attention to this part of the manticore. His eyes followed the honeydew ants closely.
He didn't follow it immediately. It wasn't until the last manticore disappeared that he moved towards the big hole.
The cave was located beneath those manticores, and he felt he needed to be careful.
After entering the cave, Feng Yun found that he had lost the whereabouts of the honeydew ants and manticore, but this could not stop him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and began to sense the changes in the power of nature.
The manticore's body will emit a fishy smell. Although it is not strong, it is obviously much stronger than the smell emitted by honeydew ants.
Even Feng Yun can recognize the changes caused by the scent of honeydew ants to the force of nature, especially this time.
It only took him less than thirty seconds to confirm the whereabouts of the manticores.
He immediately accelerated and ran over.
Since there was no sign of the manticore, Feng Yun moved very quickly, and it only took a short time to see the honeydew ants again.
Seeing them again, he found that they were handling the meat worms and honey sacs on their backs. To be more precise, they put the meat worms and honey sacs into two caves respectively under the supervision of the manticore. .
Feng Yun didn't pay attention to the cave where the meat bugs were placed. He was not interested in them. He was looking at the cave where the honey sacs were placed.
Looking at it, he couldn't help but ignited hope in his heart, the hope of finding the honey crystal.
He has already seen the performance of the manticores. They are all interested in the meat bugs brought by the honeydew ants. As for the honey sacs, almost no one cares about them.
Judging from what he saw, the honeydew ants probably gave things to the manticore more than once or twice. The more times you send, the more honey bags you will accumulate.
The more and longer the honey sacs accumulate, the greater the chance of honey crystals appearing, because the key to honey dew turning into honey crystals is time.
“If you have the chance, you must go in and take a look.”
Feng Yun stared straight at the cave where the honey sacs were stored, waiting for the honeydew ants and manticore to leave, and he did not wait too long.
In less than ten minutes, the honeydew ants and manticore left one after another. 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our reading academy
