Season 1: The Islands Are Quietly Extinct Chapter 35: The Shadow Comes
Passing through the fruit forest and re-entering the dense mountains, the towering giant trees almost blocked all the light. Only the occasional fish that slipped through the net provided some light for Qin Hao and the others. With the help of the detector, it did not affect
their travel speed.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
The dense footsteps lasted for dozens of miles before gradually slowing down. After confirming that the swarm of bee-like monsters had not caught up, Qin Hao and the others, who were exhausted, stopped.
When they were about to check Lei Yucheng's injuries, they couldn't help but open their mouths, as if they had been struck by lightning.
When they were escaping, the three of them took turns carrying Lei Yucheng on their backs, but because they were too urgent, they didn't notice that the unconscious Lei Yucheng was holding on to the fruit tightly.
In other words, they had been escaping with Lei Yucheng and Guozi on their backs all the way. No wonder it was so hard.
"I don't think there's any need to check. I haven't forgotten the fruit at this time, so there shouldn't be any problems."
Selma, who had just been so moved by Lei Yucheng, rolled her eyes and said.
Even Qin Hao couldn't help but smile in surprise, but he still took the lead in checking Lei Yucheng.
Fortunately, Lei Yucheng had not opened the second level of fission for a long time. Although he suffered serious internal injuries, his life was no longer in danger due to the internal repair of the doubling robot. It is estimated that he will be able to wake up after a while.
Just when Qin Hao was about to tell Fang Tian and Selma the good news, he suddenly felt a cold air behind him and immediately ran out with the unconscious Lei Yucheng.
Taking a closer look, several huge bees appeared behind them with red wings fluttering, and each one was stronger than the one that escaped before.
Although Qin Hao reacted in time, because Lei Yucheng was too heavy, he still could not completely avoid it, and several spikes pierced Lei Yucheng's lips.
Qin Hao immediately pulled out the spikes, applied anti-venom ointment on his lips, and then handed Lei Yucheng to Selma and Fang Tian.
This time Qin Hao would never allow Lei Yucheng's accident to happen again. He immediately activated the second level of fission. When Lei Yucheng was handed over, orange light spots were already all over his body.
When those big bees saw Qin Hao's changes, solemn expressions appeared in their compound eyes. Apparently, they had grasped the relevant information about the second level of fission.
Qin Hao's eyes were filled with coldness. When the orange light completely enveloped the six-pointed star on his chest, he disappeared.
I saw a few orange sword lights suddenly appearing behind those huge bees, reaching towards the wings behind the bees.
Obviously these bees were well prepared. When the sword light just appeared, they had already quickly dodged around and successfully avoided Qin Hao's first sneak attack.
But they still underestimated Qin Hao under the second level of fission. Before they could stabilize their figure, several more orange sword lights surrounded one of the bees, and finally cut it into several pieces under his horrified eyes.
Falling to the ground.
"Buzz buzz..."
The remaining large bees were obviously irritated by the scene in front of them. The red light of their wings became more brilliant and they made a loud buzzing sound.
However, this is not what Qin Hao cares about at this time. All he needs is to quickly deal with them and disappear again with a shake of his legs.
Several large bees gathered together in an instant and sprayed needles wildly in all directions, forming a 360-degree defense network with no blind spots.
"break!"
However, following Qin Hao's roar, a huge orange sword light split through the air above several large bees, destroying everything it passed and wiping out all the stings.
However, just when everyone thought those big bees would be killed by Qin Hao, a strange scene happened.
The heads of several bees shrank into a giant needle, and then they were inserted into the body of the most majestic bee, turning into the hands and feet of that bee.
The bee, as if it had been injected with power, used its newly transformed hands to sandwich Qin Hao's sword light until it disappeared.
Looking at the bee that was suddenly several times bigger in front of him, Qin Hao was not timid. He shook his arms and slashed at its only head with a cross sword light.
The bee looked at the slashing sword light with a look of disdain. The ten pairs of wings behind it shook and it easily dodged away. When it reappeared, it was already behind Qin Hao.
Qin Hao's reaction was not unpleasant. When the bee just appeared, the giant sword had already struck it.
"bite!"
With the crisp sound of gold and iron clashing, Qin Hao drew back his sword and retreated a distance, looking at the Fusion Bee in slight shock.
The fused bee does not simply increase its strength and speed, all abilities have been improved accordingly, and it can already compete with Qin Hao on the second level of fission with its physical body alone.
After a brief gaze, the two sides rushed towards each other again, and the blurred figures continued to intersect in the air.
"Ding! Ding! Ding...ding!"
With the final impact, the two sides once again distanced themselves and looked at each other solemnly, as if they were surprised that the other side was evenly matched with them.
While staring, Qin Hao suddenly noticed something strange. The bees that had turned into limbs seemed to be slightly smaller than before.
"Don't they simply fuse together, but voluntarily sacrifice their bodies in exchange for an increase in energy? And as time goes by, the energy provided by the sacrifice will become weaker and weaker until it disappears.
"
Qin Hao was calculating in his mind, but he was not sure, so he carefully noted down the current status of the combined bee and launched another attack.
This time, Qin Hao did not fight head-on with the fused bee, but used the defense capsule to resist the attack of the fused bee. As his ability improved, the defense power obtained by using the defense capsule also increased accordingly.
When the defense capsule resisted the attack of the fused bee, Qin Hao had already gotten close to its body and picked at the connection between its right arm and its body at a sharp angle.
If this blow hits, the newly transformed arm will definitely be cut off, but the original feet of the fused bee that were already hanging down suddenly flashed red and kicked Qin Hao's vital part.
Qin Hao quickly retracted his giant sword and blocked it under him. An unimaginable force came from the hilt of the sword, and Qin Hao, who had finally gotten close, was thrown away.
Qin Hao stabilized his body and shook his numb arms, staring at the protopod that had just kicked him, and found that it withered quickly after an explosion and finally turned into a black fossil and fell to the ground.
The fused bee also looked at the fallen protopod, and a hint of sadness deep in its compound eyes quickly turned into anger before disappearing from the spot.
This time it did not pounce directly on Qin Hao, but moved at high speed in the air, making Qin Hao unable to figure out its specific direction for a while.
Suddenly, a dense barrage of needles shot out from behind Qin Hao. Qin Hao seemed to have been prepared for it. When he turned around, he turned the giant sword in his hand and turned all the needles in front of him into powder.
At this moment, a huge needle that was dozens of times larger suddenly appeared not far from the left side of Qin Hao's body.
Because the distance was too close, it was too late to retract the sword. Qin Hao could only turn his left hand into a fist to meet the giant needle with a bright orange light.
Qin Hao did not respond to the sharp edge, but hit the edge of the top of the needle, causing it to change direction and pass him.
"Bang!!!"
Even so, the huge impact was still too strong for Qin Hao to withstand. He flew several feet away, leaving dozens of feet of footprints on the ground before he steadied himself.
A drop of blood overflowed from the corner of Qin Hao's mouth, leaving a clear blood line on his jaw.
"Pooh!"
After spitting out the blood in his mouth, a fishy smell still filled his mouth, making Qin Hao's anger surge.
Just when Qin Hao was about to launch a mad attack, he suddenly noticed that the limbs of the fused bee had indeed shrunk significantly, which meant that his previous guess was correct.
When these limbs are completely withered, that is when the fused bee loses its fusion power, but it is impossible to determine how long this time will take.
Although delaying time is the best way to fight against the merging bees, what Qin Hao lacks most now is time.
Even after discovering the opponent's weakness, Qin Hao still had no choice but to launch an attack, and this time it was even more fierce. Liang Bing's giant sword appeared in his hand at the same time, flying in a beautiful arc like a butterfly's wings.
But in the eyes of the fused bee, it is indeed a life-threatening poisonous wing, and the end point of every flight points to its own vital point.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
Under Qin Hao's selfless attack, the Fusion Bee gradually fell into a disadvantageous position, unable to withstand Qin Hao's offensive.
Qin Hao, who had been unable to attack for a long time, suddenly turned the giant sword in his left hand into a throwing weapon and flew towards the head of the fused bee.
Since the attack came suddenly, the fused bee could only block it with both arms, leaving a gap in its chest.
How could Qin Hao let go of the opportunity he had finally created and stab the giant sword in his right hand directly to where the original foot had fallen.
"snort!"
With a muffled groan, the Fusion Bee finally failed to defend against Qin Hao's wave of crazy attacks and was stabbed into the body with a sword.
"Bang!"
Before Qin Hao could put away his sword, the retracted right arm of the Fusion Bee had already hit him hard on the chest.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the body drew an arc and hit the ground.
After stabilizing his body with his giant sword, Qin Hao rushed towards the Fusion Bee again. He would not let go of such a good opportunity to kill.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Due to the severe injuries, the Fusion Bee's defense was full of holes. It could only resist three consecutive heavy blows with its body. If its body hadn't been too tough, it would have been broken into several sections.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Qin Hao's attacks became more and more fierce, and the Fusion Bee gradually had no chance to resist, and he struck with several heavy blows near the vital area.
With his body unstable, the Fusion Bee could no longer dodge Qin Hao's fatal blow.
With a perfect arc of the giant sword in Qin Hao's hand, the body and head of the fused bee were lightly separated, and they both fell to the ground.
Qin Hao, who tried his best, also fell to the ground, barely holding on without falling.
Thelma and Fang Tian hurriedly came up to support Qin Hao and stuffed a recovery capsule into his mouth.
Seeing that the enemy had been eliminated, Qin Hao, who was about to exit the second level of fission and continue to escape with everyone, suddenly pulled Thelma and Fang Tian behind him and looked solemnly at the dense forest in front of him.
Chapter completed!
