T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 80, Section 79: Natural Disaster - Demon-Suppressing Insect Nest
Divided into different directions by the swamp succubus, the five people dared not make any rash moves at the boundary between reality and illusion, unable to band together.

Bathed in the rising sun, she slightly raised her head, glanced sideways, and swept her gaze across the crowd with utter contempt.

Like a cat catching a mouse, the swamp nymph is not in a hurry to kill the prey that has stepped into her territory. She moves leisurely, like a fish, in mid-air.

With each swing of her lower body's arms and legs, the swamp slug would float a distance at high speed.

With each flap of the mud-sculpted wings, sticky, dark brown muddy water dripped down, resembling melting chocolate ice cream.

She deliberately distanced herself, seemingly abandoning the prey at the boundary between reality and illusion, only to turn back at lightning speed the next second.

Seeing that she couldn't seize the opportunity at the boundary between reality and illusion, she looked disappointed, then smiled and "swam" away again, disappearing from everyone's sight.

No one believed she had truly left this time; if anyone made any unusual move at the boundary between the virtual and real worlds, she would surely reappear.

Jiang Heyi's brain was working at lightning speed.

run?
Considering the swamp banshee's mobility, magical attack range, and the boundary between reality and illusion, it would take at least two to three lives to ensure someone escapes alive.

And this was already the best outcome Jiang Heyi could imagine.

Hoping that the swamp banshee will fail is too foolish, therefore...

"Guard, move the firing line!"

The swamp slug burst through the white mist that filled the swamp and arrived on his head in the blink of an eye.

The jailer's magical manipulation caused the swamp banshee to change her mind; a long whip made of clay suddenly materialized in her empty hands.

With a flick of his wrist, the whip cracked like thunder.

The swamp banshee's prediction was incredibly accurate. Her whip struck the running jailer with precision and force, shattering the elemental shield provided by the four primal beings, and sending him flying like a spinning top.

"Orange tea, to summon spirits!"

Jiang Heyi and Original Flavor Fries, one on each side, used the wind magic of the Four Primal Bodies to accelerate and rushed straight to finish off the swamp banshee of the jailer brother.

The jailer was already dizzy from being whipped. His eyes were slightly open, and the swamp succubus's hideous face, like a demon, was right in front of him.

The swamp slug's tentacles bound the jailer's body, and the corrosive and poisonous mud flowed down the tentacles, dissolving his body.

"Damn it, I'm going to blow you up!"

Knowing he was doomed, he did not summon his skeletal attendants to shield him from the attack, but instead chose his spirit attendants.

After ordering his spirit servants to do everything in their power to interfere with the swamp banshee, his consciousness released a lightning storm spell a second before the jailer, who had left his body, died.

"Wait a minute, tentacles are arms, and arms are also feet... Heh heh!"

The swamp slug was able to smoothly complete a whole set of operations before dying, and this crazy counterattack caught her off guard.

Several of her mud tentacles were shattered, and the mud wings around her waist, affected by the electric arc, no longer remained fluid, but instead solidified into large, dry clumps of mud, which crumbled inch by inch as the swamp succubus arched back in pain.

Two cold glints flashed simultaneously.

The crisscrossing blades carved an "X" into the swamp banshee's body.

The swamp succubus, with her back to the two, suddenly turned her head 180 degrees, extended her thin, snake-like, muddy yellow tongue, and licked her cheek.

"A funny little mouse."

Her intelligence is higher than I imagined; she can fully understand the player's dialogue.

Where the blade cut, mud quickly gathered from all parts of the body, and within a few breaths, the wounds disappeared.

If it weren't for the thunderstorm that shattered her little wings before the prison guard died, proving that she wasn't invincible, Jiang Heyi would have already implemented the contingency plan—he would cover the rear alone while the others ran away.

A monster with high-speed self-healing is not something early-game players can afford to mess with.

Wait……

Jiang Heyi felt a chill run down his spine.

Being able to understand players' dialogue likely means they can also read their tone and emotional fluctuations.

"Orange tea!"

Seeing that Orange Tea remained motionless, the four Primals rushed to her side and realized that a mud tentacle from behind had penetrated her back, acting like a support to keep Orange Tea from falling over even in death.

There is no option left to escape.

If the swamp slug isn't killed, everyone will die!
Their wrists and feet slammed into the ground, stirring up a mixture of wet soil and mud. The dark mud curtain obscured their vision, but Jiang Heyi and Original Flavor Fries, relying on their intuition, swung their knives at the ground in perfect unison.

The two tendrils that were fused with the ground snapped off instantly.

Distracting us, using a feint, what a cunning fellow.

In the blink of an eye, the two went from standing side by side to back to back.

The swamp succubus has disappeared.

Earth element affinity, shaping magic, corrosive power, and deadly poison.

Counting the labels an enemy possesses, a single one might not seem significant, but when they are all combined...

Almost simultaneously, they all guessed that the Swamp Banshee's next hunting target was the Quadruple.

The Primal Being himself knew this as he moved closer to the duo while channeling magic. Earth and lightning elemental shields landed precisely on the pair several meters away, and he also granted Jiang Heyi a Wind Blessing speed boost.

He precisely calculated his magic power and casting speed, and then offered up his last bit of magic.

The ghostly swamp succubus dragged the four primal beings into the mist, where they vanished without a trace.

"earth……"

Before he could even say "original flavor fries," Jiang Heyi covered his mouth.

"She understands!"

Plain Fries understood Jiang Heyi's look and swallowed his words.

The swamp banshee has a powerful self-healing ability; if this drags on any longer, they have no chance of winning.

We must force her to return immediately and fight them to the death.

"Potato, run!"

"My, go."

Jiang Heyi was stunned for only a moment, then noticed the slight upturn of the corners of the mouth on the plain fries' lips and immediately understood what it meant.

He ran towards the edge of the swamp without looking back, while Original Fries dashed towards the direction where the Primarchs had disappeared.

Before they had taken two steps, a sinister laugh rang out from the thick fog.

Before the swamp succubus could be seen, mud gushed out like a torrent.

The original flavor fries were deliberately rubbed against the mud, causing the shield to shatter, and blood splattered across the cheeks, shoulders, and arms.

Fueled by [Bloodlust Frenzy], she moved with incredible speed and power. Without any finesse, her powerful strike caused the curtain-like fog to tremble and shatter. The swamp banshee hidden within then used the same trick, causing the earth to surge like ocean waves.

She decided to restrain the original flavor fries and kill Jiang Heyi, who had escaped.

Unexpectedly, the original flavor fries suddenly stopped, turned around and ran away, thus escaping her magic.

He unleashed a devastating slash, like a god of death descending upon the world, and then ran away?

The sudden turn of events stunned the swamp slug for a full two seconds before she roared in fury.

"A mere rat dares to mock me?"

In terms of speed, the original fries were no match; before they had run a hundred meters, the swamp slug, who had overtaken them in a straight line, intercepted them.

"You've ruined my mood."

"Go to hell!"

Her curled tongue straightened and shot out like a sharp sword.

The magic circle that formed beneath his feet made the ground unstable. Original Fries felt like he was on a small boat, swaying from side to side, struggling to withstand the stench of mud spewed by the swamp banshee and the attacks of her constantly reshaping body.

Original French Fries' arm was scratched and broken, and the deadly poison corroded her flesh, causing numbness that almost made her lose her grip on the knife.

The tongue pierced her heart, and the swamp slug used the momentum to drag her to her side.

She pressed her hands against the sides of the original flavor fries' cheeks, her nimble tongue slapping against their cheeks, slowly eroding their consciousness with the potent toxin.

"You all... all of you..."

"Sizzle!"

Violent lightning surged from within, its sharp energy piercing through the mud-constructed body.

They knew the swamp banshee could understand human speech, but she might not be able to understand code words.

My, go (I'll go).

The original flavor fries were not meant to make Jiang Heyi run away.

I don't know how the jailer determined that the swamp banshee was weak to lightning. Under the infusion of lightning, her tongue disappeared like mud and sand in the wind, and one of her arms became stiff and dry.

"Not enough, not enough! Your power can't kill me!"

Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, Jiang Heyi's sudden counterattack left him exhausted and panting heavily. Holding the short knife, he remained motionless, letting the swamp succubus's instinctive lashing of her wrists strike down.

"【Desperate!】!"

Jiang Heyi's eyes lit up, a stark contrast to his usual tired demeanor.

This was the moment he had been waiting for.

Pounce forward on the tentacles, using the same technique as with the Plain Fries to chip away at the damage and enhance the [Bloodlust Frenzy] state.

A desperate strike unleashed with the right hand, enhanced by a lightning elemental shield.

The moment Jiang Heyi plunged into the swamp succubus's embrace, a bluish-purple electric light flashed in his left hand.

100% Accuracy Thunderstorm Spell, Activate!

The blade pierced through his body, and lightning struck him.

The swamp slug's fluid body solidified into mud at a visible speed, and her hideous face, like a mottled wall, crumbled with dust.

Cracks covered her entire body, making her arms feel like lead; she could only raise them halfway before they shattered into dust and fell to the ground before they could be shaped.

"You crazy person!"

The Thunderstorm spell, having self-inflicted near-death, brought the [Desperate Strike] skill to its fullest potential.

The swamp succubus opened her mouth, attempting to use her last bit of strength to take Jiang Heyi away.

"Give me, die!"

Bearing the hopes of the entire team, Jiang Heyi, despite being oxygen-deprived, relied on instinct to drive his body and unleash another desperate attack.

A desperate strike at the last minute.

The unsheathed blade shattered the dying swamp witch, severed the continuous white mist, divided the swamp, and left a 10-meter-long ravine.

Jiang Heyi stopped and knelt on the ground, his body steaming from the electric shock, breathing heavily as his body went numb.

“Virtual boundary: 18100 points”

This point was like an adrenaline injection for the exhausted Jiang Heyi.

He guessed that this BOSS was not simple and would likely give a high score, but he didn't expect so many.

Staggering to the mud and sand left behind by the dead swamp banshee, Jiang Heyi picked up the fallen item, which happened to be the healing potion he desperately needed.

After being given the medicine, he, who had been pulled back from the brink of elimination, dared not delay. With tears in his eyes, he licked his teammate's backpack and ran wildly along the swamp.

"Orange Tea, you're watching, right?"

Give me your good luck!

He shouted it out.

The outline of the wooden house emerged from the swirling white mist.

Jiang Heyi's heart pounded. He rushed forward and saw the familiar Mushishi. He took out the dried fish he had rescued from his companion's backpack, chewed a couple of times, and urged them to hurry up before even swallowing.

"Let me see, let me see!"

The Mushishi finally understood Jiang Heyi's intention and displayed the shopping panel.

[Guiding Firefly]: 600 points
[Zerg Warrior]: 3620 points
[Natural Disaster: ?]: 13660 points
After purchasing the guild points board and seeing the points status of each guild, Jiang Heyi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Natural disaster, I want natural disaster."

Let things get chaotic.

Make a mess of everything!

Only when everything is in chaos can the boundary between reality and illusion be breached, allowing for a chance to profit from the chaos.

"Natural disaster, selected by lottery."

The Mushishi stirred the box on the table with his hand.

This time, instead of taking out any insect specimens, he took out a pale purple crystal.

A crystal that made Jiang Heyi feel that the magic was not flowing smoothly.

"[Natural Calamity - Demon Suppression Insect Nest] will open in 10 minutes."
