In a hidden forest clearing in the huge wetland, the soil on the ground suddenly exploded with a loud bang, and a monster with a black carapace and a ferocious face rushed out from the ground carrying a person on its back.
"Are we here?" The man jumped off the monster's back and gently opened the hood on his head, revealing a very young face.
This person is none other than Xue Hua, who dug all the way from beneath the first altar.
He borrowed one of the tunnel worm networks that had just been laid here and got into the protective circle of the second altar before the demon army strengthened its vigilance to the point where it could not invade.
"Master, our Overwatch King Insect has monitored a large number of hostile creature psychic signals approaching your location. Please avoid them or let the insect swarm destroy them."
"I understand. Since we're not far away, let's keep walking!"
Xue Hua nodded, jumped on the cockroach's back again, slightly covered up the traces of the tunnel, and quickly disappeared among the dense rainforest trees.
Less than half a minute after he left, a group of about five hundred sheep-headed demons also came to this open space.
The leading sheep-headed demon suddenly stopped moving forward. He stood in the middle of the open space in the corridor with some suspicion, stretched out his head and sniffed around, as if he smelled something but was not sure.
After a long time, the sheep-headed demon shook his head, roared at his companions behind him, and continued to lead them towards the rain forest.
What they didn't know was that not far in front of them, Xue Hua had already found the location of the second altar.
It was a pool full of weird frog sounds, and the pool was surrounded by all kinds of frog creatures, large and small, just like the spiders in the spider forest.
There are both giant frog demons and ordinary animal frogs.
In the center of the pool, there is a small island with a radius of ten meters. The island is connected to the shore by a wooden corridor. There is a stone pillar erected on the island, and a small jade frog is placed on the stone pillar.
A large number of dwarf wizards were throwing cloth bags wrapped with baby corpses into the waters around the island, and some dwarf wizards were dancing strangely around the stone platform with jade frogs.
As more and more baby corpses were thrown into the pool, Xue Hua could clearly feel that a strange force was slowly awakening in the pool.
That power is ancient and powerful, but it is tainted with a hint of evil spirituality.
Obviously the plans of those evil covenanters are working, these sleeping primitive gods have begun to be awakened and tainted with the breath of hell.
Seeing that things were rapidly developing in a bad direction, Xue Hua no longer hesitated and directly opened the dimensional hole beside him and released the swarm of insects in Leviathan.
In the sky, two Node King Insects exerted their strength together, and invisible ripples instantly enveloped the entire pool.
However, since there was a demon patrol coming quickly behind Xue Hua, he could not guarantee how long blocking the transmission of information would delay it.
Therefore, what is necessary now is a quick decision without any delay.
The goat-headed demons guarding the altar soon discovered the swarm of insects attacking them from the jungle, and these demon clones came forward without fear, carrying large axes.
Due to the increased security, there are many more demon guards in this pool than in the previous Spider Cave. There are at least a thousand sheep-headed demons facing the insect swarm alone.
These sheep-headed demons are all clones. With the current strength of the insect swarm, there is no problem in defeating them. However, it will be a bit difficult to break through their pursuit and interception within minutes to stop the sacrificial ceremony on the island.
And Xue Hua can't use the air force now, which is undoubtedly sending an invasion signal to all the surrounding demon patrols.
Cockroaches can't jump that far, and the water in the pool blocks the possibility of the swarms of insects rushing in quickly.
Of course you can use saboteur bombardment to destroy the island, but the jade frog cannot be destroyed at all.
These jade statues are like the personal mana marks of legendary human beings. Unless they are dead, they will not be easily destroyed.
And if he hadn't taken away the jade frog, Xue Hua's trip would have been a waste of time.
Even if the altar on the island is destroyed, when the evil conspirators come, all they have to do is fish out the jade frog from the pool, and at most the ceremony will be held all over again.
However, if this problem had been placed before the great evolution of the nest, Xue Hua would have been able to be dealt with, but now it is no longer enough to make him helpless.
I saw the dimensional door behind Xue Hua open, and more than a dozen monsters carrying a huge conch-like shell crawled out.
This is another new unit after the evolution of the swarm - the projector.
They can suck a unit into the shell-like spray cavity on the back and launch it directly to a designated location (refer to Red Alert 3, Soviet Bullfrog Vehicle). The projected unit will be safe under the buffering effect of the hollow sporangia.
Land and quickly engage in tactical operations.
With this thing in hand, Xue Hua can let the swarm of insects cross the barrier of the pond, land directly on the island, destroy the altar and seize the jade frog statue.
The projectors quickly lined up at the edge of the pool under the protection of the insect swarm, and dozens of springtails and cockroaches were first sucked into the huge snail shells on their backs.
Then, as the projectors roared in unison, dozens of sporangia were ejected from the huge shells on their backs.
These sporangia successfully crossed the pool from low altitude and directly hit the small island in the pool. Several dwarf wizards who could not dodge were immediately hit by the sporangia and flew into the pool.
The moment it hit the ground, the skin of the sporangium exploded with a bang, and the springtails and cockroaches inside rushed out without hesitation, quickly throwing the unprepared dwarf wizards to the ground.
After killing all the dwarf wizards on the island, a cockroach walked to the stone platform, took down the jade frog and put it into his mouth. Then, under the protection of springtails and other cockroaches, he walked towards the insect swarm from the wooden corridor.
Coming from the direction.
Xue Hua immediately sent a group of cockroaches to lurk to meet them, and arranged for the new unit "Spear Hunter" to work with the Hydralisks to clear a path for them with super firepower.
Under the cover of a large number of insect swarm units, the assault team successfully merged with the main force of the insect swarm, and Xue Hua also successfully obtained the jade frog from the cockroach's mouth.
After getting this most important thing, Xue Hua didn't want to stay here any longer.
Isa has already begun to remind him that the surrounding demon patrols have noticed something is wrong. They are quickly surrounding here. If they don't leave at this time, they will wait for a breakout battle!
So he immediately arranged for the insect swarm to begin to evacuate in batches. He even left the altar through the tunnel dug by the cockroaches without even bothering to clean the battlefield.
Less than five minutes after Xue Hua left safely, two evil covenanters who were in charge of the sacrificial work surrounded the pool from all sides with a large number of demon clones.
However, when they saw the empty stone platform and the holes in the ground on the shore, they understood the secret of their opponents being able to avoid their encirclement net.
"Damn! This guy actually knows how to drill holes!"
One of the evil consorts cursed.
Another evil contracter also issued orders to the surrounding demons with an ugly expression.
"Order the remaining three altars to prevent underground units from approaching!
Also, hurry up and gather reinforcements, we must not let him succeed again!"
