Chapter 964 The Nature of the Beast Tide, Resource Competition

Chapter 964 The nature of the beast tide, resource competition

To be able to be a bodyguard, the combat effectiveness is very strong, and according to Bai Yunzhou, he hired 20 bodyguards that time, and the loss was so heavy.

I can't help but feel sorry for each other.

Bai Yunzhou's expression was gloomy, but in the depths of his eyes, there were flames of anger and belligerence.

He continued: "If we follow our speed, although we can't be tough with those sucker insects, leaving is not a problem. But we can't, no matter what, we have to protect the caravan to leave safely. The incident happened too suddenly, and the kind of The sucker worms came out continuously from the ground, and the caravan had no time to take away all the goods, so most of them were left behind."

"Later we found out that we had accidentally entered the territory of sucker bugs. We backed up and resisted. The jumping ability of that thing is extremely strong. It seems to be only one or two meters long, but when the body is fully stretched, it can reach four. Five meters. The suckers at both ends have extremely strong attack power. Moreover, the sucker insects that devour humans and mutated camels seem to be hanging open. ..."

"We lost half of our bodyguards before barely escaping from their lair area, but they quickly caught up with us. Seeing that we were surrounded by sucker insects, when we thought that everyone would be lost there, we didn't expect that the ground was far away. One of the hills began to vibrate, and dozens of larger earth dragons drilled out of it, opened their mouths towards these sucker insects and swallowed for a while... Then a large group of long-necked beasts ran from the other side and began to follow. The earth dragons snatch sucker worms together."

"Of course the sucker worms didn't care about chasing us, and retreated to their nests one after another, while quickly burrowing into the sand. After those earth dragons and long-necked beasts had a full meal of the sucker worms, when they were about to turn around and deal with us, we had already returned to the ground. On the original route of the caravan, I happened to meet another caravan, and then successfully arrived at another city..."

The earth dragon is not a real dragon, but some giant nodular insects like centipedes.

In contrast to sucker worms, which rely entirely on the stretching and contracting of body muscles, they have dense legs on both sides of their bodies, a pair of giant pincers on their heads, and a long tail that is connected by steel needles.

The body size is equivalent to two or three sucker worms, and the bite force of the giant claws is amazing, which can directly cut the body of the sucker worm into two pieces. Moreover, the pointed tail can not only attack the enemy, but also be used to drill through the soil and stones underground, and move freely, so it becomes an earth dragon.

Everyone was very concerned about the situation of the sucker worm, and some even immediately took out the map they carried with them and asked Bai Yunzhou to point out where the sucker worm was.

The man explained that he had seen someone buying sucker worms on a mission announcement list in a city before, and they still used Yuan Energy Stone as the trading unit.

Hearing what the man said, Qingu glanced at him subconsciously. Before he could ask, someone asked first: "Is the Yuan Energy Stone the transaction unit? Is it the Yuan Energy Stone that can absorb the energy inside to temper the body?"

"There is energy in the stone? Can it be used to increase the force value? Is it true?"

"Yes, yes, what does the energy stone look like? Is it the same as a windmill coin?"

The man rubbed his nose, feeling that he had failed everyone's ardent expectations, and said embarrassingly: "That...Actually, I..."

"It's similar to windmill coins, but the color is slightly darker."

The voice just broke the circle of the man, and everyone quickly looked at the source of the voice, it was Wen Qi.

He took out a round, flat pebble from his pocket, and said, "That's it, it's just a different color from the windmill coin. There is indeed a certain special energy fluctuation in it, but it's said that it is to achieve force It can only be sensed and absorbed with a value of Ⅲ level or above. I'm still a little bit..."

People asked one after another, where can I earn this energy stone.

Wen Qi said: "...About two years ago, I was lucky enough to guard a batch of goods with a super strong bodyguard. Because the materials inside were too large and expensive, I used this as the payment unit. One stone is equivalent to a thousand The value of windmill coins. Of course, as long as it is not really desperate, no one is willing to exchange this. I made one at that time... That person drilled twenty energy stones. However, he has to Well-deserved rewards."

Twenty energy stones, wouldn't it be 20,000 windmill coins in conversion? !

Among the bodyguards here, the highest reward for escorting a mission is only 1,000 windmill coins, and the other party's escorting mission is equivalent to twenty times! sharp.

Everyone is very curious, who is so powerful.

Wen Qi's eyes and face were filled with admiration and admiration, and with a tone of pride, he slowly said two words: "Huai'an."

People all gave a clear "oh", with expressions of "no wonder" and "that's how it is".

For this legendary power, even if he gets a higher reward for one escort, they don't have any objections, two words - convinced.

Qingu is a quiet observer at the moment. Seeing everyone's expressions, he thought to himself, he did not expect Huai'an's prestige in Fengbao to be so high. It seems that everyone recognizes and admires him very much.

But it's true, no matter where you go, you always say "save, save, save". The people here or their relatives and friends have more or less been rescued by him before, right?

It's no surprise that Huai'an has such a reputation.

From this chat, Qingu also learned more information.

Sucker insects, earth dragons, long-necked beasts...

Xindao, if there are those sucker insects and earth dragons in every beast tide, they can drill into the ground and open up a series of passages to attack the city?

Wouldn't it be easier to break through the human gathering area?

But if you look around, those fierce beasts divided into different camps, except for the gophers, are basically active on the ground...

Active on the ground?

Thinking about it, Qingu thought of a problem—perhaps, what everyone is fighting for is ground resources.

However, if it wasn't for the tide of beasts to bring these ferocious beasts together, there would still be a strong competition for survival among them in normal times, so why did they "work together" together like this?

Therefore, there must be a very powerful existence behind this, not only able to command all the beasts, but also have the absolute ability to control them!

And the purpose of this powerful existence to summon beast hordes again and again is to compete with humans for the living resources on the ground.

Qingu was thinking about the problem in his mind, while he was eating, he was adjusting his breath and running his spiritual power.

And Xiao Z also deduced more information based on the clues she collected just now.
