After driving away potential competitors, Jiang Kai quickly headed to his destination.
A few minutes later, when Jiang Kai was suspended on the ground, looking at the peaceful earth, he suddenly frowned again.
"No, I'm a ghost now. The gold-eating bug beasts can't seem to feel me. They won't come out at all!"
Then Jiang Kai changed his mind and thought, if the gold-swallowing insect beast can't come out, he can go down!
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Kai rushed down towards the ground.
Sure enough, his body passed directly through the ground, all the way down.
It is still difficult for others to take the initiative to find the gold-eating insect beast, but Jiang Kai can penetrate the bottom layer, which actually becomes his advantage.
After traveling for tens of meters, Jiang Kai penetrated the soil and discovered that there was an intricate nest underground.
"It's an insect nest!" Jiang Kai couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the passages extending in all directions in front of him.
Gold-swallowing insect beasts are huge, so their passages are quite spacious, and the passages are intricately connected to each other.
With the help of the light from the divine power halo, Jiang Kai's sight was pretty good.
At this time, Jiang Kai didn't know which direction to go. He thought for a while, frowned and said, "If I walk slowly one by one, the efficiency will not be as good as before, and the time in the ghost state will be wasted."
"It would be best if there is any way to lure them here."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Kai took out his long sword Purple Lightning Phantom, held the hilt of the sword, and kept knocking on the wall of the cave.
The sound of the knocking was very muffled and could not travel very far, but if the insect-devouring beasts could feel the vibrations of the ground dozens of meters above their heads, Jiang Kai believed that they would definitely feel the sound here.
Taking advantage of the time of knocking on the wall, Jiang Kai injected the tempered Zhui Ming into the divine power halo, and then adjusted the position of the divine power halo to form a circle of fire around himself.
"I wonder if we can find that warrior-level gold-eating insect beast..." Jiang Kai was muttering when suddenly he felt the ground shaking violently.
The vibrations came from all directions, and it was impossible to tell the direction. Earth and rocks kept falling above our heads...
"How much has come!" Jiang Kai's eyes widened. When he knocked on the wall, he didn't hit the wall too hard. As a result, he seemed that the seriousness of the matter exceeded his imagination.
At this time, Jiang Kai no longer had the Wheel of Fortune, and he did not dare to be careless and activate his Ghost Eyes to focus.
Boom, boom, boom... the vibrations were already deafening, and they were coming overwhelmingly.
……………………
In an unknown map, a military team of nearly two thousand people is camping.
Although there are a large number of them, the camp is very tidy, the personnel are arranged in an orderly manner, there are night watchmen, and some people are resting.
In the camp, four or five middle-aged men were sitting around a campfire.
"Lao Wang, how far is the map of this area?" One of the men looked at his companion on the left.
"Captain Lu, the terrain has been mapped out, but there is a little trouble with the gold-swallowing insect beast," the man said.
Captain Lu nodded, "I know that the situation there is different from what we have encountered before. The beast's territory is clear on other maps, but the gold-swallowing insect's lair is underground..."
Another tall woman followed and said, "Yes, once someone invades the insect nest, those insects will go crazy!"
Lao Wang added, "And the insect nest is very deep. Usually, before we dig the insect nest, we will attract a large number of gold-eating insect beasts... Hey, this place is really difficult!"
Commander Lu nodded, "I know, there are indeed difficulties, but if we can't figure out the location of the insect nest, then civilians entering the area in the future will have disastrous consequences!"
"Tomorrow, we will be ready to dig the insect nest!"
"yes!"
Although the mission has continued, the mood of several battalion commanders is not high. The regiment commander's decision also means that many soldiers will die in tomorrow's mission.
Some people always say that if you die on a ghost star, you will die, it's not a big deal.
But after truly experiencing the 100% real death process, everyone knows that dying in battle is never a pleasant thing.
Otherwise, there would not be specialized psychological counseling centers at the registration bases in major cities.
What's more, you have to face system penalties, such as loss of experience, equipment, and attributes. The higher the level, the greater the punishment!
While everyone was discussing the tactical arrangements for tomorrow, suddenly, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet shaking violently.
"Earthquake?" someone exclaimed.
Those who were sleeping soundly looked confused and at a loss when they were woken up.
Not long after, a soldier rushed back from the forest and came to Commander Lu and others, "Report to Commander, there is a large-scale ground collapse about 20 kilometers to the southwest!"
Captain Lu and others were shocked and looked at each other, "What is going on?"
Battalion Commander Wang frowned, "That place is not far from Taiping Mountain Road and is the territory of the Gold-Eating Insect Beast. Could it be that the wanderer mistakenly entered the Gold-Eating Insect Beast's lair?"
"Captain, let's go take a look!"
Commander Lu nodded, "Old Wang, take one company over and have a look. The others should proceed cautiously towards the accident area!"
……………………
The rumblings all around were deafening. Jiang Kai held his breath steadily, holding the purple electric phantom light, and prepared for the attack.
Not long after, from where Jiang Kai knocked on the wall, a black shadow broke through the wall and jumped out!
Jiang Kai never expected that this guy would not follow the established path and make a sudden attack!
The diameter of the passage is less than three meters. At such a close distance, there is no time to react, let alone dodge.
Jiang Kai only saw a big mouth full of sharp teeth, and it rushed directly to his face!
"Well done!" Jiang Kai shouted in a low voice.
The halo of the body rotated rapidly, and after moving forward to chase life, the giant insect had no time to close its mouth, and its entire body was cut in half!
At the same time, its remaining body was immediately devoured by flames!
[Congratulations on killing the 21-year-old gold-eating insect beast, gaining 840 experience points, and obtaining the stomach bag of the gold-eating insect beast...]
Before the system's congratulatory message ended, there was another loud noise behind Jiang Kai, and another gold-eating insect beast rushed out of the wall.
However, the next second, it also died under Jiang Kai's homemade blade armor.
After instantly killing two gold-eating insect beasts, Jiang Kai had no time to take a breath before the real attack began.
Devouring insect beasts came from all directions, swarming towards Jiang Kai like a tide.
The aura of divine power rotated rapidly, and in the firelight, each gold-eating insect beast turned into ashes, leaving only a poison sac.
"Too many! It's probably because I broke into their lair that I rushed over them one after another."
The enemies have all rushed into the insect tide. For the purpose of protecting the insect tide, they launched such a crazy attack!
The speed at which Jiang Kai withdrew his life-saving attack and then fired out could no longer keep up with the speed of these crazy bugs.
At this moment, the stone wall above Jiang Kai suddenly collapsed, and a gold-eating insect beast rushed out and swallowed Jiang Kai in one bite!
However, after a moment, an orange light shone slightly from its neck, and then became redder and more obvious. After a moment, its body suddenly turned into a ball of fire and exploded into pieces!
Jiang Kai escaped from the mouth of the gold-eating insect beast again!
Just now, this insect caught Jiang Kai and once again took advantage of his chance to pursue his life, and swallowed him in one gulp.
However, when those sharp and dense teeth bit down, Jiang Kai found that he was unscathed!
Those teeth penetrated his body but did not cause any harm.
"Becoming a ghost is equivalent to permanent virtualization?!"
With this escape experience, Jiang Kai felt more at ease.
Not to mention these ordinary gold-eating insect beasts, even if they are elite, warrior-level, or even commander-level, king-level ones, Jiang Kai can kill them as long as there is no means to target the spirit body!
"Since I can ignore their physical damage, there is no need to pursue instantaneous effects."
"It's too slow to reset the attack attributes of Life Chaser, just quench it directly!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Kai no longer withdraws Zhuiming, he only needs to ensure that Zhuiming is in the quenching state.
In order to protect the insect tide, the insects rush towards the invaders.
The number of beasts in the unknown areas is far greater than that in the discovered areas, and gold-eating insect beasts are pouring in like a tide.
However, for Jiang Kai, these bugs are crazy refreshed experience and stomach bags...
Jiang Kai is now at level 3 and level 7. It already costs more than 400,000 to upgrade to the next level, which is much more than before.
A gold-swallowing insect beast costs about 600-900 experience points, and Jiang Kai needs to kill 600 of them before he can level up again.
However, in just half an hour, Jiang Kai was promoted to level 3 and level 8!
"Good guy, it's a good thing that I'm in the ghost state. Otherwise, if I came down rashly, even if I had a substitute, I wouldn't be able to last half an hour!"
Yesterday, Jiang Kai also killed more than 500 gold-eating insect beasts, but the gold-eating insect beasts in the lair were even bigger. The key was that the attack efficiency was too high, and the insects often sprang out from several directions at the same time.
If it weren't for his homemade blade armor, Jiang Kai would never have been able to block such a fierce attack.
Forty-five minutes, Jiang Kai's kill count has exceeded 800!
It was only then that the number of gold-eating insect beasts slowly decreased.
After another ten minutes or so, the attack of the gold-eating insect beasts finally came to an end, and not many gold-eating insect beasts came out.
Jiang Kai finally breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally done! The increase in experience is too exaggerated. It's almost one-third of the third level and ninth level!"
It seemed that the common bugs were almost killed. Jiang Kai put away his stomach pouch and observed the surrounding environment.
"The most bugs come out of this passage, and it may be connected to the main nest."
Thinking of this, Jiang Kai floated in along the passage.
