Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 139 Black Bugs
Jiang Hua pondered and said, "The oil in this bronze lamp should be the legendary mermaid oil."

"Legend has it that deep in the North Sea lives a tribe called the mermaids. The lamp oil made from the flesh and blood of these mermaids can last for thousands of years."

“So some of the tombs of nobles and kings would use lamps made of mermaid oil.”

Hu Bayi asked in confusion: "Then why did it suddenly light up?"

"This should be because the air has been circulating since we came in, causing the temperature inside to rise a little."

"The ignition point of this mermaid oil is very low, so when the temperature reaches a certain critical point, these bronze lamps will burn on their own."

After hearing Jiang Hua's answer, the fear in everyone's hearts was alleviated a lot.

"Then what do we do now?"

Jiang Hua thought for a moment and said, "This bronze coffin must not be opened again. The big zongzi inside makes me feel very dangerous. Let's open the cellar coffin first and take a look."

After hearing what he said, everyone had no objection.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

The fat man had already lit a candle in the southeast corner.

Watch the candle burning steadily.

Hu Bayi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then everyone came to the cellar coffin together, looked at each other, and nodded.

Hu Bayi and Fatty took out tools and pried open the cellar coffin.

boom!
There was a sound of the coffin lid falling to the ground.

This cellar coffin has been opened.

When everyone looked inside, their pupils shrank immediately.

There is a dead body in here.

But as everyone opened it.

The corpse was actually expanding.

"Run!"

Jiang Hua's face changed.

He had a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

Everyone fled in all directions.

boom!
The body was blown apart.

A dense swarm of insects suddenly emerged from inside, flying in the air and forming a black mist.

Shirley Yang's face changed.

"These are bugs cultivated using magic. They must be very dangerous. Everyone must not be touched by the bugs."

"King Xian, this old turtle, is so damn insidious!"

The fat man couldn't help but curse: "There's such a dangerous thing even in the coffin."

Buzz!
The insects above were constantly moving.

Then he pounced on the bronze lamps around him.

Chi Chi!

The flames of these bronze lamps were directly extinguished by these insects, and then these insects pounced on the candles lit by the fat man.

"Do these insects eat fire?"

Hu Bayi was stunned for a moment.

"No!" Jiang Hua said, "They want to destroy everything with temperature."

"Is there any temperature?"

Shirley Yang's face changed.

"After these flames are extinguished, won't it be our turn?"

Buzz!
Sure enough, these insects looked at Jiang Hua and his group.

The thick black fog formed by the insects rushed towards Jiang Hua and his group.

Jiang Hua took out the Red Dragon Order without saying a word.

And it triggered the pressure of the Red Dragon.

However, the red dragon's pressure seemed to have no effect on these insects.

They didn't even react at all.

Still rushed towards Jiang Hua and others.

"Damn, this thing isn't even afraid of the Red Dragon's pressure?"

Jiang Hua looked a little ugly.

What on earth is this?

He's not even afraid of the Red Dragon's pressure?
If these insects were some kind of fifth-grade monsters, then Jiang Hua could still understand it.

But these are just some normal bugs.

Even if it is cultivated using techniques.

"Try to see if the blood of the red dragon works."

Jiang Hua took out a dagger and cut his hand.

Looking at the black mist flying over, he raised his right hand and sprinkled the red dragon's blood on the insects.

Chi Chi Chi!
The blood of the red dragon does have some effect on these insects.

Some red dragon blood touched these bugs.

They were as if they were burned.

It fell to the ground and rolled over.

Then he died completely.

However, the insects that were not touched by the red dragon's blood simply ignored it.

It seems like they are not afraid of anything.

Rushed towards the crowd.

Jiang Hua's heart sank, it was indeed a magical technique.

These bugs no longer have their own consciousness.

They were like a group of puppets, vowing to kill all living things in front of them.

These are all the effects of magic.

They don't know pain or fear.

Even the biological instincts have been lost.

That’s why these black fog insects are not afraid of the pressure and blood of the red dragon.

"It seems that we can only kill them all."

Jiang Hua took a deep breath.

"Enter the storage space first."

He shouted to Shirley Yang and others.

Then he waved his hand and brought them all into the Red Dragon Order.

Jiang Hua dodged and easily left the range of the black fog.

But the black mist formed by these insects rushed towards him like a thorn in his flesh.

Jiang Hua took out a bottle of water.

Then it suddenly sprinkled into the air.

A cloud of mist formed.

And these bugs just happened to step into the water race.

There was a gleam of light in Jiang Hua's eyes.

He didn't hesitate.

"Five Thunder Seal!"

"Water mine seal!"

boom!
A flash of lightning was released from Jiang Hua's hand.

Zizizi!
The lightning flashed with lightning speed and rushed directly into the water mist in the air before it fell to the ground.

Suddenly, lightning and thunder were transmitted in the water.

A sizzling sound was heard.

Black insects fell from the sky, bringing with them an unpleasant burnt smell.

Jiang Hua’s choice was very simple.

Since these insects cultivated by the magic are not afraid of the pressure of the red dragon, then we will destroy them all.

So how to eliminate it?

So many bugs?

If he used the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, Jiang Hua didn't know how long he would have to kill.

And you can't let these bugs touch your body.

Otherwise who knows what would have happened?
So he thought of the Five Thunders Seal.

Thunder has a natural and deadly restraining power against these evil spirits.

Although these are insects, they are cultivated by witchcraft after all, and belong to the category of evil spirits.

So Jiang Hua sprinkled a bottle of water into the air in advance.

Wait for the moment when these insects rush over.

Use the conduction of water to spread the thunder around.

Most of the insects were killed directly.

"Whoo~"

Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally succeeded.

As for the remaining insects, there is nothing to be afraid of.

These insects were fearless and even if more than half of them died, they still rushed towards Jiang Hua.

Jiang Hua followed the same method and easily killed the insects.

next moment.

Shirley Yang and others appeared at the same place.

Seeing these insects, they were all dead on the ground.

Everyone immediately showed a hint of joy.

The fat man praised: "Brother Jiang, you are awesome."

Jiang Hua smiled and said nothing.

Hu Bayi squatted on the ground, observing the insects carefully.

"What are these?"

"I don't think I've seen this kind of bug before?"

Shirley Yang also squatted down.

She looked at the bugs carefully.

Suddenly he was stunned for a moment.

"I know what these bugs are!"

"Ah...what?"

Shirley Yang had a solemn look on her face.

"There is such a record in my grandfather Partridge Whistle's notebook."

"When we were in Black Water City in Western Xia, my grandfather, Partridge Whistle, entered the ancient tomb of Black Water City with Master Liaochen, the successor of the tomb raider, in order to obtain the Dragon Bone Heavenly Book."

"As a result, they also encountered a kind of insect in Blackwater City. This kind of insect will eat anything with temperature. My grandfather was about to leave after obtaining the Dragon Bone Book."

"This kind of bug suddenly appeared and attacked my grandfather, Partridge Whistle, and Master Liaochen. In the end, Master Liaochen stayed in Blackwater City forever in order to help my grandfather, Partridge Whistle, leave."

"And my grandfather, Queqiao Shao, also lost an arm. From then on, his martial arts skills declined greatly, and he completely gave up. He gave up the search for the Zhuchen Pearl."

"The culprits behind all this are these unknown bugs."

"As long as they rush onto a person, they can quickly devour all the flesh and blood in a short period of time."

"My grandfather, Partridge Whistle, lost his arm because of these bugs."

Hearing Shirley Yang's words, everyone couldn't help but swallow.

Isn’t this black bug too scary?
Fortunately, they had Jiang Hua's presence, otherwise it would have been really dangerous.
