Chapter 112: The Child of Destiny
The werewolves at night were many times stronger than during the day. During the day, it only took a moment for the Man-eating Vine and the flying ants to finish off the two werewolves.
Although the two werewolves were weaker, the combat power of these werewolf warriors was much stronger.
The most important thing was that the strength of the werewolves had suddenly increased at night. Therefore, it was a little difficult for the Man-eating Vine and the flying ants to deal with them. Especially when the number of werewolf warriors increased, the Man-eating Vine would disperse to entangle them. After its strength was dispersed, it was difficult to deal with them.
The arms of those werewolves suddenly became thicker, and all the strength in their bodies was bursting out. The man-eating vines that wrapped around their bodies all split apart one by one, falling to the ground.
The Man-eating Vines, which were originally covering the sky, suddenly shrank and retreated, as if they were afraid.
After all, breaking so many vines and leaves was a very harmful thing to the Man-eating Vine. At this moment, it was also afraid. It trembled its leaves timidly and did not dare to advance.
At this moment, the flying ants were not afraid of death. Taking advantage of the moment when the Man-eating Vines were wrapped around the werewolves, they climbed onto their bodies and bit them fiercely. However, because of the sudden burst of werewolf power, many of them were shaken off.
However, the flying ants that were shaken off flew up with a buzz and nailed onto the werewolves. Even if they shook them off, they quickly flew back up.
At this moment, another vine quietly grew out of the cowering Man-eating Vine. That vine seemed to be a little different from the other vines. Li Yuanqing looked over and saw a bare red vine.
It was very similar to the vine of the woman who was tied up by the werewolf in the beginning. That woman couldn’t break free from the vine no matter what. Moreover, the more she struggled, the tighter the vine was tied up. It even strangled her flesh.
The man-eating vine slowly approached the werewolf warrior closest to it. Then, it extended its red vine and suddenly wrapped around the werewolf warrior’s feet. The werewolf warrior did not take it to heart. At this moment, he was dealing with the ants on his body.
There were too many of them and they were too annoying. His body was in great pain. He simply rolled on the ground, wanting to crush these flying ants. However, after the wolf warrior lay down, when he wanted to stand up again, he realized that his legs were tied up by vines.
Just like before, he suddenly burst forth with strength, wanting to crack the vines under his feet. However, he was shocked to discover that the vines around his legs could not be broken.
Moreover, the more he struggled, the tighter the vine wrapped around his feet. It was so tight that it was going into his flesh. The werewolf started to bleed. As soon as he started bleeding, the flying ants seemed to be stimulated by the blood and quickly sucked the blood of the werewolf warrior.
It hurt, it hurt, it hurt so much!
Only then did the werewolf warrior despair. No matter how much strength he unleashed, he was unable to break free from the red vines. Moreover, the flying ants were simply pervasive. He could not crush them or chase them away.
Soon, the outer layer of the werewolf warrior’s hard and impenetrable skin was completely broken through by the flying ants. Its flesh and blood began to be eaten by the Man-eating Vines and the flying ants.
At first, the werewolf warrior was still screaming, but after a few breaths, the werewolf warrior that was originally on the ground disappeared without a trace.
The ground was bare without any traces. There was really nothing left.
The flying ants seemed to have grown a little bigger after devouring the werewolf warrior. At this moment, each of them was the size of an egg. Two red vines also grew out of the Man-eating Vines, and this time, they entangled the two werewolf warriors.
This time, their cooperation was much faster than the first time. The man-eating vines first rushed up to wrap around these werewolf warriors, then the flying ants rushed up and quickly followed the b.l.o.o.d.y marks left by the man-eating vines, biting with all their might.
Another werewolf warrior fell to the ground with a bang. After struggling on the ground for a moment, it quickly disappeared. All the blood on the ground was devoured by the Man-Eating Vine and cleaned up. There were even more flying ants the size of eggs.
After becoming larger, the stomachs of these flying ants began to glow. Furthermore, their movements were even more ferocious and they flew especially fast. Their biting power was even stronger. When they dealt with the third and fourth werewolf warriors, they were already much faster than before.
Li Yuanqing stood in the darkness and watched the flying ants and vines cooperate. Then, he calmly observed all the changes in his surroundings. It was completely dark.
The darkness was filled with fog. Standing in the fog, he seemed to feel that his strength was restricted and could not unleash it. He originally had the strength of a Human G.o.d, but now it gave him the feeling that he was only in the fifth grade of the Grotto-Heaven Realm.
Li Yuanqing’s strength had been weakened by almost half. This was a very terrifying thing. No wonder those martial artists would hide at night and not come out at all. Anyone who was in an unfamiliar and dangerous place would be extremely terrified when their strength suddenly decreased. Their goal was to survive.
Under such circ.u.mstances, the possibility of dying while walking in the dark was too high.
Just now, he had observed that in the dark night, under the cover of the fog, the werewolves’ strength seemed to have suddenly increased. During the day, be it the Man-eating Vine or the flying ants, they could easily deal with the werewolves, it didn’t even take ten minutes.
However, on the night when the werewolves’ strength soared, the Man-eating Vine and the flying ants could not take down those werewolf warriors in a short time. They even suffered heavy casualties. In the end, if not for the Man-eating Vine devouring that special vine, it would probably be very difficult to take down those werewolf warriors.
It seemed that if he wanted to gain a foothold in the Catacombs and obtain what he wanted, he could completely control these vines or flying ants if his strength was restricted. Li Yuanqing was even considering his Manipulation Art.
Perhaps, Manipulation Art was not affected here.
At the same time, the voice transmission became lively.
Because no one dared to go out in the darkness, they all hid in places they felt safe and stayed there. They also began to exchange various resources and information.
At this moment, someone was shouting for Li Yuanqing.
“00001, Big Boss, do you have any more water to exchange? I have food, plants, seeds, ores, and picked fruits…”
This martial artist kept calling out to Li Yuanqing, hoping to exchange for some water. However, Li Yuanqing did not answer him.
A martial artist couldn’t help but say.
“Stop shouting. Everyone is very nervous about this water source. Everyone needs it. Maybe someone has already gone to s.n.a.t.c.h the water source. Who doesn’t want good resources?”
As soon as this martial artist said this, someone immediately started a private chat to ask about the water source. Soon, a message was sent through the voice transmission.
The martial artist 00001 was especially lucky. It seemed that he had discovered a water source the moment he entered the catacombs. Therefore, he had never lacked water and could use it to exchange for anything.
However, such a good place was as good as a spirit stone mine. Who wouldn’t want it?
Some stronger martial artists or smarter martial artists joined forces and wanted to discuss with Martial Artist 00001 to share some water. This sharing, hehehe, would depend on whether 00001 knew his place.
If he knew what was good for him, he would be able to get some water. If he didn’t, his profile picture would turn gray.
In the beginning, such discussions were still very soft or very obscure. However, after many people realized that No. 00001 didn’t seem to be bubbling at all and didn’t reply to messages in private chat,
Some of them muttered in their hearts. When they saw someone mention that the person who took a fancy to Martial Artist 00001 this time was Martial Artist 00004, many people no longer had any scruples and directly chatted about Martial Artist 00004 through the voice transmission.
This was because 00004 was a very famous martial artist in the voice transmission device. She had once s.n.a.t.c.hed a spirit stone mine and dealt with the mutated beasts in the spirit stone mine. She had obtained a lot of spirit stones and her cultivation and resources had increased.
Moreover, she even killed a few martial artists who were digging for spirit stones. Some martial artists who wanted to dig for spirit stones immediately retreated and did not dare to compete with her. In any case, when someone saw what 00004 was going to do, everyone avoided the sharp edge or agreed directly. In any case, no one could beat her. They might as well follow behind her and get a share.
This time, 00004 wanted to fight for the water source. 00004 often did such things and won every time. Therefore, everyone felt that 00001 was too unlucky to have been targeted by 00004.
00001 did not even show up at the busiest time of the night. He did not even dare to agree to exchange spirit stones for water. It could be seen that the situation was very bad.
“It’s all 00001’s fault for being a newbie. He doesn’t know the rules and is too greedy. He exchanged too much water at once. Everyone was lacking water. And he took out so much water to exchange for spirit stones. Spirit stones can be dug, but water is not easy to find. No wonder he attracted death!”
“That’s right, that’s right. 00001 is being watched by 00004. That’s not an egg hitting a rock. This time, it’s definitely a one-way trip. It’s over. 00001 is dead!”
“Just wait and see. I bet that after Number 00004 gets the water source, we can exchange a pot of water for five spirit stones in the future. Do you believe me? Anyway, I believe it…”
…
Countless similar voices were talking. At this moment, 00004, who had just turned on her voice transmission, was dumbfounded.
These lunatics really wanted to kill her! At this moment, her life was still in the hands of 00001. Yet these people were still saying such words. They really wanted to kill her!
She was extremely fl.u.s.tered and immediately sent a message on the voice transmission device. “Shut up, all of you, shut up. Whoever says that I have my eyes on the water source of 00001 will become my enemy in the future. I won’t let him off first. Whoever dares to make an enemy of 00001 is more dangerous than walking into the fog after dark. If you want to live, shut up, shut up…”
00004 was about to go crazy. She had seen how powerful 00001 was. How could she dare to have the intention to s.n.a.t.c.h the water source now?
“Do you know? 00001 didn’t make a move, yet he destroyed a village of werewolves, a village…”
As soon as 00004 said this, the originally lively voice transmission device fell silent. Her news was too explosive. For a moment, everyone was dizzy from the explosion. All the martial artists could not believe their eyes.
How was that possible? How could a martial artist kill a werewolf? And it was a village. Could it be that there was only one werewolf in that village?
Even a werewolf wouldn’t be easy to deal with unless it was during the day. If it was during the day, a werewolf would be weaker, so it didn’t seem too difficult to deal with.
“It’s the kind of phenomenon where a werewolf lives alone in a village. If you encounter it in broad daylight, especially when the sun is high, the werewolf will be the weakest. A martial artist still has a chance to kill a werewolf!”
“Yes, yes. I once saw a werewolf from afar in the middle of the day and I managed to escape. During the day, werewolves are much weaker. If it was at night, I definitely wouldn’t be able to escape!”
“That’s right, there’s a chance during the day. This 00001 is really a child of destiny. There’s indeed a chance for him to meet a werewolf in broad daylight!”
…
When 00004 saw these people appear again, she chuckled and said, “There were more than ten werewolves in that village, and it was at night. And he wasn’t the one who personally destroyed a village of werewolves. I’m praying for myself now, begging him to be magnanimous. Don’t harm me anymore…”
00004 was shouting. After she said this, the voice transmission was dead silent. No one said anything. Because no one knew what to say. Because it was really beyond their imagination.
These people were still hiding in places they thought were safe at night, discussing how to exchange resources with each other and think of ways to survive. No one dared to go out because they were afraid of encountering dangerous demons, werewolves, and ferocious creatures.
However, it was different for 00001. He had actually wiped out a village of werewolves at night. It was at night, when the werewolves were at their strongest, and also when human martial artists were at their weakest.
This was unbelievable. They were both martial artists, but how was he so powerful?
At this moment, many people suddenly thought of a problem. This martial artist with the 00001 was not lucky enough to obtain a water source that everyone lacked, but because he was very powerful.
He was so powerful that it surpa.s.sed everyone. That was why he could find a water source and have a water source!
After dealing with all the werewolves, Li Yuanqing was about to heave a sigh of relief when he saw the leaves of the Man-Eating Vine trembling rapidly. It seemed like something had happened.
This was because this Man-eating Vine was much smarter than the flying ants. Although it could not speak, its leaves could convey many different messages.
Just now, Li Yuanqing could clearly feel that the Man-eating Vine was telling him a very exciting piece of news. Its leaves were shaking, which meant that it was ecstatic.
Even Li Yuanqing was stunned by this ecstasy.
