Chapter 226: Earth Veins Movement
The clone of the arrogant insect was killed by Yu Ke.
Instead of rushing into the ruins, the main body recalled the soul-eating insect immediately.
This made Yu Ke begin to suspect that the arrogant insect had other plans. It seemed to know that Fang Xuanhe was in charge of the ruins!
You should know that Fang Xuanhe's presence in the ruins does not mean that he cannot participate in the battle, but it is just that the seal of the beast tide has a higher priority.
If the arrogant insect did not have a way to quickly break the seal and chose to force its way in, it would inevitably face the pincer attack from Yu Ke and Fang Xuanhe.
Can it be a blessing to be greeted by the most powerful people in the Beijing-Hangzhou area?
However, the reality is that the arrogant insect chose to evacuate without hesitation.
The information captured by the leak-filling trait made Yu Ke realize that the insect demon was just a clone, and then he thought of another possibility.
The arrogant insect clone that broke into the camp through the underground tunnel was probably just a test made by its main body.
Through the raid of the clone, the main body not only found out the general situation in the camp, but also distracted the guards.
If the clone can mobilize Yu Ke and Fang Xuanhe, the main body will have a chance to break in.
If it can't be done, just abandon the clone and withdraw to minimize the loss. As for those insect beasts, they are just cannon fodder to be consumed at will. With the existence of Zhong Ling's dirty blood, there is no need to return to the border. There are many fierce beasts in the mountains.
The meteor shower has not yet arrived on Earth, and it still has plenty of time to prepare for the second round of offensive, and even use the insect beast army to besiege the camp to attract human attention while secretly making other plans.
Yu Ke, who noticed the abnormality, made a quick decision, looked back at Ye Yingtong, raised his hand and pointed at the tent behind her,
"Protect non-combatants, and other things will be discussed when I come back."
Yu Ke guessed that Ye Yingtong's abnormality was most likely related to the Red Ghost Face, and the latter's performance just now was enough to prove that she was on the side of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, so he was not in a hurry to understand the specific situation.
With his sight locked on the Soul Devourer flying towards the outskirts of the camp, Yu Ke chose to chase after it!
The defensive layout and personnel allocation in the camp had been known by the Pride Insects after the offensive and defensive battle just now. Letting the Soul Devourer retreat calmly was tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain. When they come back again, the situation will only be worse.
"Ansai Li, I will temporarily leave the camp to track the monsters that control the insect swarm. If there is any emergency in the camp, please tell me at any time."
The defense of the camp is still stable at present. Yu Ke stays here just to stay on the sentry tower as a mascot to boost morale.
The Pride Insect clone does not seem to be something that can be created in a short time, otherwise the Pride Insect would not have to retreat.
"Understood, go ahead."
Ansai Li's trust in Yu Ke is beyond doubt.
With the control of the surrounding natural environment by the forest spirit and its own super perception, even if there is a majestic gray fog interfering with the line of sight, Yu Ke can still lock the Soul Devourer and jump out of the psychic barrier.
Yu Ke, who is firing at full power, does not give the insect beast a chance to stop him.
The dragon-headed warrior wielded a large sword with purple flames to split the road, stepped on the branches to the top of the tree, and quickly put it away after getting rid of the siege. The whole person disappeared into the fog to avoid exposing his whereabouts.
Just at this time, Fang Xuanhe sent a communication request. Yu Ke stared at the soul-eating insect and answered it while running forward.
Originally thought that Fang Xuanhe was sensing the battle outside the ruins and asking about the situation, but before Yu Ke opened his mouth, he heard the former say in a rather anxious tone,
"The ground veins connected to the seal array inside the ruins have changed. Something is eroding the ground veins. It is very likely that it is the soul-eating insect body found in the cave."
The arrogant insect has seized part of the power of the Minshan God, so it is not difficult to affect the ground veins.
Because the clone failed to attack the camp, the arrogant insect wanted to indirectly destroy the seal in the ruins by eroding the ground veins from the outside?
The previous speculation about the reason for the soul-eating insect's withdrawal was verified.
Yu Ke was more and more certain that the attack on the camp was just one of the plans of the arrogant insect. This creature, which had seized the divine power, was probably planning to make a big fuss by taking advantage of the meteor disaster tonight to completely realize some ulterior conspiracy.
"I am tracking the body of the soul-eating insect and maintaining the stability of the seal. Wait for my news. If there is an accident in the camp, I may need your help to take care of it before I rush back."
While speaking, Yu Ke was also asking the forest spirit in his mind.
At this stage, the situation outside the camp was chaotic. The gray fog covering the mountains affected the vision too much. Yu Ke himself had no means to check the veins of the mountains, so he could only rely on the forest spirit to investigate.
Fortunately, the forest spirit was very capable in this regard and quickly gave the answer.
"Tracking the soul-eating insect, there is a point where the veins fluctuate abnormally in the direction of their flight."
"Could it be the body of the arrogant insect?"
Yu Ke galloped high in the forest covered by gray fog and asked in a deep voice.
"It's impossible to be sure. We have to get closer."
After all, the mountains are not the Mirror Lake Forest. The existence of the arrogant insects forced the forest spirit to be careful.
Since it can erode the power of Zhongshan God, it can also erode the weak forest spirit.
Going deeper into the fog, the vision in all directions was compressed again and again. Even Yu Ke felt a lot of pressure. After all, the other party was able to influence the mountains and veins and existed at the same time as Zhongshan God.
Although they have also experienced a thousand years of sealing, after seizing the divine power, they are probably at the same level as the forest spirit.
The fierce beast in the black copper vein forced Yu Ke to reveal all his cards, and the proud insect would only be stronger than it.
"Fifty meters ahead, pay attention!"
The forest spirit sent another reminder. Yu Ke, who had just jumped into the air, immediately slowed down and noticed the soul-eating insect that began to dive, and then fell to the ground. During this process, Yu Ke could vaguely see the outline of a huge black shadow in the woods.
Could that be the proud insect?
Confused in his heart, Yu Ke tried his best to restrain his own breath and approached until he saw the soul-eating insect drill into the huge black shadow.
Yu Ke clenched the Leviathan Axe in his hand, thinking that he would launch an attack immediately and kill the monster in front of him. He could always confirm its identity by checking for loopholes.
But when Yu Ke approached the monster about ten meters away, he was surprised to find that the latter did not react to his arrival.
No matter how confident Yu Ke was in his ability to restrain his breath, he didn't think that the arrogant insect would let him get close to ten meters away without knowing it.
In other words, the guy in front of him was definitely not an arrogant insect!
Then what was the meaning of its appearance here?
The insects and beasts coming from the border area were all besieging the camp. What was so special about this guy that the arrogant insects arranged it here, and the soul-eating insects also moved in?
"Sen Ling, is the point where the ground veins fluctuate abnormally here?"
Recalling Fang Xuanhe's previous reminder, Yu Ke didn't rush to fight, and turned to confirm the situation with Sen Ling.
"It is the source of the ground vein fluctuations."
Sen Ling's response made Yu Ke frown. It turned out that it was not the arrogant insect that affected the ground veins?
