Chapter 535: Jumo Island (Forty-One)
"Yes, it's super powerful... I remember Kuanghe Binglie (a character from the Pili Puppet Show) used this trick and he got it right..." Feng Bujue replied with empty eyes.
"Don't be verbose!" Atobe said angrily, "This is a one-time consumption technique that can only be used by Combat B and Spiritual Technique C. Normally, it is at least an A-level skill."
"Okay... After meeting the Silkworm Mother, I decided to use your move as the core of my attack." Feng Bujue said.
"Well, leave the containment to us." Honghu nodded and continued, "We will try our best to create opportunities and space for you to attack."
"Actually, you don't have to do anything specifically. With the Silkworm Mother's size right there, hitting the target shouldn't be a problem; and there's no possibility of the consumption technique failing..." Atobe continued, "As long as we confirm that she and I There is no wire mesh between them, so I can..."
At this point, he just swept away a silk screen in front of him. Unexpectedly, a swift shadow suddenly appeared from behind the net.
"Be careful!" The moment Tianma Xingkong warned, he raised his hand and struck. This blow was not a meteor punch, but an ordinary punch attack, but Brother Ma still used his domineering power to blast out an invisible energy.
The shadow that suddenly jumped out was blocked by the wind of the fist, and the movement was slightly stagnant. Taking advantage of this gap, Atobe also took a half step back and waved his fan, successfully forcing the opponent back.
At this moment, everyone saw clearly what was coming.
That's a mushroom...
To be precise, a "mushroom man".
If what appears in your mind at this moment is the mushroom boy in the Mario game, then you are totally wrong... The guy in front of the players looks more like the God of Haiku (from "Comic Manga Hiyori") , a mysterious creature seen by Matsuo Basho who ate poisonous mushrooms)...
It is about 1.6 meters tall and is basically human-shaped. There is a huge khaki mushroom cap on its head, and its body is light yellow with four limbs. But there are no details on it. There are no muscle outlines, fingers, toes, skin, hair, etc... nothing at all. In fact, it doesn't even have a neck, its head, torso and crotch are all one piece.
In short... the appearance of this "phantom beast" feels like a graffiti character with an extremely simple style, and the lines on its face are also very random... With just a few strokes, it forms a wretched and dull image. Face.
"Haiku...the god of haiku!" Feng Bujue's eyes widened and he complained as he looked at the mushroom man.
"Wipe it!" The mushroom man opened his mouth and... let out a cry. At the same time, it used its bucket-like body to make a move to prepare for a fight. And kept shouting, "wipe-wipe-"
"Compared with this guy... the howling goat from before seems so ordinary..." As Honghu spoke, he had already retreated behind his teammates with an infrared lamp. It was obvious that he was not prepared to participate in the battle before him.
A monster like this can be challenged by anyone in the team. Honghu naturally prioritizes maintaining infrared rays. Lest anyone accidentally hit the wire mesh.
"Hahaha..." Feng Bujue quickly walked to the front of the team uninvited and said with a smile. "Good day! I was just thinking about something vegetarian!"
"Hey...you want to eat whatever you see?" Atobe felt disgusted looking at the wretched mushroom man. So he tried to dissuade him, "We already have food reserves, and we also pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables!" When he said this, he seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly changed, and he turned to look at Brother Jue. "Hmm... There seems to be something wrong with your motive for eating... In fact, you eat purely because you want to eat, right? It has nothing to do with survival or clearing levels, right?"
"Rub - rub -" The mushroom man didn't care what they were saying. He shouted twice more, then stepped forward and kicked Brother Jue in the face with a side kick.
"Hmph...this kind of move is useless to me!" Feng Bujue crossed his arms. He stood in front of him and met the opponent's attack head on.
There was only a "pop" sound, their arms and legs touched, and they each retreated a few feet.
"Wipe!" This time, Feng Bujue shouted.
He was not surprised at how powerful the opponent's attack was, but he was surprised that... he was actually poisoned.
"What the hell... being kicked through the sleeves will also cause poisoning?" Feng Bujue thought to himself.
Brother Jue originally wanted to deliberately let the opponent hit him a few times, and use the effect of [Hate Furnace] to defraud some physical points. Unexpectedly...it was self-defeating.
"You really can't be careless at all." Feng Bujue spat, and immediately prepared to use his Lan Kou to deal with this curious guy.
But just before taking action, he suddenly had a plan in mind and changed his mind...
The next second, Dan saw him feint a shot and take advantage of his speed to dodge behind the approaching monster. Then, he took something out of his pocket and threw it out.
You must have guessed it...yes, what he threw was the [old Poké Ball that had never been used].
The mushroom man didn't expect Brother Jue's move. In addition, the space here was narrow, so it couldn't stay away from the range of the elf ball, so... it was hit.
When the Poké Ball approaches the target, it automatically opens and suddenly emits a burst of white light. After the mushroom man was hit, his entire body was first transformed into light, then rapidly shrank, and finally poured into the sphere.
snap——
Two seconds later, the Poké Ball fell on the crystal crust, and then... began to sway left and right.
For some reason... during these few seconds, the four people present all looked nervous and stood still...
Once, twice... three times...
Driven by an inexplicable instinct, everyone stared at the Poké Ball with bated breath, and when it swayed three times and stopped shaking, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
[Ding Ding Ding Deng Deng Deng~] At this moment, the system unexpectedly gave a rather nonsensical sound effect that made people feel like they had seen it before.
Feng Bujue took a step forward, picked up the Poké Ball, and grinned: "Ha! I conquered the God of Haiku!"
"What's going on with this inexplicable sense of disobedience..." Tianma Xingkong thought.
"It feels like I suddenly traveled to some other game..." Honghu said.
Atobe's complaints were quite sharp: "Will there be a task next, asking you to go to the gyms in various places on the Demon Island to collect badges or something like that..."
"Stop talking nonsense, who has an antidote? Give me a bottle." Feng Bujue quickly mentioned the business. Although the effect of the poison he was poisoned with was relatively weak, it was not possible to leave it alone; in just a few dozen seconds. The physical energy converted from the damage was already quite a lot.
…………
Five minutes later, on the terrifying leaf.
"Huh? It actually came?" The silkworm mother who was dozing on the leaf veins suddenly arched her body and said, "Heh... It seems that I have found a way to explore the silk net..."
The silkworm mother does not have a real "vision". Her senses are another ability different from the five senses of humans. Therefore, she does not know about infrared lights and the like, but she can sense the approach of players through the slight vibrations on the nearby silk nets.
"Interesting... It's worth my arrangement for so long." The silkworm mother smiled.
Just as she was talking to herself, a circle of red light in the distance slowly came from the crystal path and had already reached the edge of the terrifying leaf.
Suddenly, there were two whirring sounds, and the wind of blades suddenly rose.
A large fan split a piece of silk net spread in the air, and four figures jumped out of the opening one after another.
In the blink of an eye, four players have stepped on the terrifying leaf and opened up their formation. They are ready for battle.
"Come to save your companions?" Mengyin in the belly of the silkworm mother said in a joking tone, "I am really touched."
Feng Bujue ignored the other party's words. He observed the environment on the terrifying leaf by himself. After confirming the terrain and the position of the boss. He exchanged glances with his teammates and then said: "Okay... follow the plan, let's act."
Honghu, Jibu and Tianma Xingkong responded in unison, and rushed out with Brother Jue.
"Ha... what are you doing? Do you want to fight me?" The silkworm mother's disdain was evident, "I thought you would be smarter..."
Before she finished speaking, the two sides of the silkworm mother's body were hit by light arrows and fists. The giant fan of Jibu also danced out strong winds, attacking its tail.
But the silkworm mother still said indifferently: "For example... you can split into two groups, one group is responsible for holding me, and the other group goes to rescue your companions. Then run away separately..."
"How do you know... we didn't plan to do so?" At this time, Feng Bujue's voice suddenly came from the air.
In just a few seconds, Brother Jue had stepped on the moon step and approached the top of the giant crystal pillars.
"Hmph... Not bad." The silkworm mother snorted coldly, and then the silkworm body shook.
Suddenly, all the silk threads reappeared, and the bright green fear leaves became a pink and white ocean.
At the same time, the large pupae hanging in the sky all moved suddenly... Except for the human-shaped pupae that imprisoned the useless uncle, the other six strange pupae all exploded from the inside at this moment.
Six huge creatures with strange faces swooped down from the sky, blocking Feng Bujue's way.
"It seems that they are well prepared..." Brother Jue said as he looked at the huge monsters that were coming to kill him, "But... I am the same..."
A trace of fanatical killing intent flashed across his calm eyes.
The burst of fierce light brought out a purple-gold battle shadow.
Feng Bujue looked up and activated the [Summoning Technique - Ma Sun], and a tall warrior's fighting spirit suddenly appeared behind him.
"Ma Sun!" Brother Jue shouted.
"Yes!" Ma Sun responded.
Feng Bujue took out the military shovel from his bag, held it across his chest like a big knife, and danced it towards the sky: "Chinese Slashing Dance!"
Ma Sun understood, and the spiritual light in his hand gathered, and a real Guandao was condensed.
For a moment, golden light leaked out, and the knife shadows were heavy.
The six strange shadows that fell from the sky were killed by surprise, and they were all chopped to pieces...
"Oh? You have such fighting power..." Silkworm Mother pondered, but the second half of her sentence turned into a crazy roar, "Very good... You can't wait to taste your 'panic after mental disorder'!"
Before the roar was over, Silkworm Mother took the opportunity to let out another fierce roar.
"Zha——"
This was the first time she launched a direct and real attack on the players. The "chirps" during the last meeting were just greetings, and this time it was real.
"Fuck!" When Atobe was hit, he was shocked and cursed in a low voice. He was relatively far away from Silkworm Mother's body, but he still staggered and almost fell.
Tianma Xingkong on the other side was not so lucky... Xiao Ma stood closest to the boss and received a strong impact. The howl just started. He instinctively took a few steps back and sat down on the ground. A cold feeling quickly filled the space between his nose and lips. When he reached out to touch it, his nosebleeds flowed out like a bursting dam.
"Tch...did it affect the brain..." Honghu not far away quickly squatted down. Although he could barely stand, he still crouched down to be on the safe side. He was mainly worried that if he staggered, fell off the Terror Leaf, and fell into the wire mesh, it would be even more troublesome.
"Plan B!" Suddenly, Brother Jue shouted loudly in mid-air, turned over and fell down.
"Oh? There are two more plans?" Silkworm Mother sneered, "Let me guess...Plan B is to give up dividing the troops into two groups to save people, and instead attack me with all your strength?"
"Highly intelligent bugs that make people angry..." Feng Bujue took out two more grenades from his arms, bit open the zippers and threw them. "Bah... wait until I finish you... dry pan, fry, stir-fry bean paste... you can figure it out yourself!"
A second later, with two loud "bang bang" sounds, two grenades quickly exploded on the back of the silkworm mother, while Brother Jue used [Taxu] to stop in mid-air and did not enter the explosion range.
"What is that? A toy made of gunpowder and metal?" In the smoke and dust that gradually dispersed. The silkworm mother's intact huge body was revealed, "Haha... Speaking of toys... did you forget something?"
In an instant. Feng Bujue's pupils shrank sharply. He realized a very serious problem.
Chicking chiming——
The fierce light flashed continuously, and the blood mist dispersed.
Brother Jue was hit continuously in the back, and even Ma Sun, who was composed of spirit children, was knocked away by this attack.
He looked back and saw...the monsters that had been cut into animal shapes by the Chinese Zhanwu were, without exception, still moving. Although their bodies have fallen apart, they are still attacking with mechanical movements.
"Didn't you expect that? As long as some nerves are not completely necrotic. Even if there is only one arm or one finger left, I can still hold the string to make it move." Silkworm Mother proudly said to Feng Bujue, "Haha... I can see that you are the strongest among the four of you, right? Their attacks are like tickling. It seems that you can expect something." She said, controlling those mid-air corpse fragments. They gathered around and said, "Come on, use a trick or something to make me happy, otherwise..."
"Stop looking down on people, you bug!" Aobu shouted in the distance, interrupting Silk Mother's words and successfully attracting her attention.
"What did you call me?" Silkworm Mother seemed to be very dissatisfied with the word "bug". She actually gave up the last hit on Brother Jue and twisted her body at an incredibly high speed to face Atobu, "You can tell me when you have the ability. Once again… human beings.”
"You can say it as many times as you want..." Atobe gasped violently. Amidst the huge pressure and fear... he struggled to stand upright and glared at the boss in front of him. "You're such a disgusting bug... I feel like vomiting just looking at you!”
The more he went on, the louder his voice became, and by the last few words he was almost shouting out at the top of his lungs.
Atobu is not a top player, at least not yet; he is not Feng Bujue; he is not a drug addict like Corpse Sword. Atobe is just an ordinary person... he often feels scared when facing the boss.
This is also human nature... When seeing those monsters, demons, ghosts, and monsters with terrifying and weird appearances, any human being will feel terrified. This is true even in front of a computer screen, let alone virtual reality.
At this moment, facing a murderous giant silkworm that was fatter than a train, it was good that Atobe didn't tremble in fear, because his brain was still reminding him that this was just a game.
However, after yelling those two sentences, he suddenly felt better...
Fear, oppression, and the pressure of worrying that his companions would be killed all seemed to be wiped away by this loud shout.
Perhaps...after he faced the thing that frightened him, he realized that it was nothing more than that...
"Damnable scum..." Silkworm Mother became furious at this moment. She raised her big head and lowered it suddenly, intending to smash her body into pieces.
"Tch...it's not that fast." Atobe stepped back and barely managed to avoid the blow, and even mocked the boss in front of him.
"Ah——" The silkworm mother was completely irritated. She squirmed and lunged forward violently; her large round mouth opened, revealing a circle of sharp teeth, as if she was ready to swallow the trace directly.
Huhuhu——
Three powerful light blade slashes suddenly struck from the side and rear, hitting the silkworm mother's back.
"Do you think I'm dead?" Brother Jue's voice sounded again. Of course, he was not dead yet, but he was seriously injured. However, after he got rid of the siege with the help of Yuebu, he immediately launched an attack on the boss.
Unfortunately, Silkworm Mother ignored these three attacks and her speed did not slow down at all.
Fortunately...
"Sigh... It's because you guys all act arbitrarily that the plan can't keep up with the changes..." Honghu raised one arm forward, holding a silver cross accessory in his hand, and suddenly made a move, "[Fixing Spirit Array]!"
