God and Demon Killing Platform: I can summon the gods of China
Chapter 290 Suffocating Silence
The joy of victory quickly dissipated like the morning mist, replaced by the solemn atmosphere brought by the maze guardian.
He walked ahead silently, his figure looming in the mist, as if he would merge into the nothingness at any time.
Everyone followed closely behind, looking around vigilantly. The thick fog limited their vision and they could only barely see a few steps ahead. The unknown dangers lurked in there, making people feel uneasy.
"Watch your step." The Star Knight warned in a low voice, his voice sounding particularly dull in the fog.
The messenger of light looked at Klinda worriedly, "Are you okay? The battle with the Dark Lord consumed a lot of energy, and now..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a slight buzzing sound.
At first, the sound was so faint that it was almost imperceptible, but it soon became louder and louder, like the flapping of wings of countless mosquitoes and flies beside my ears.
Then, a group of tiny flying insects emerged from the mist. They were pitch black and gleaming with a metallic luster. They rushed towards everyone like a black tide.
"It's the Corrosive Flies!" the Nebula Sage exclaimed, "Their venom can corrode flesh and energy!"
Before she could finish her words, Clinda let out a cry of pain as a poisonous fly landed on her arm.
A burning pain came over her, and Clinda's face turned pale in an instant. A wisp of green smoke came out of her arm, and her skin quickly festered.
"Kelinda!" The Messenger of Light exclaimed and wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Zhang Cheng.
A cold light flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes. He quickly took out a palm-sized device from his waist and pressed the button.
The device instantly released a light blue energy barrier, enveloping everyone.
The flying insects hit the barrier, making crackling sounds and fell to the ground one after another.
"Fortunately, I was prepared." Zhang Cheng's tone was calm, but with a hint of subtle solemnity.
Only then did everyone notice the device in his hand, and they all showed expressions of admiration.
The maze guardian stopped and looked back at Zhang Cheng. A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to his previous indifference.
He pointed to the deeper part ahead and said in a low voice: "The real danger is still behind..." He continued to move forward and disappeared into the depths of the thick fog, leaving only one sentence echoing in the fog, "The holy object is right there..."
The light blue energy barrier firmly resisted the attacks of the corrosive poison flies, and the crackling sound continued, like a strange death sonata.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhang Cheng with admiration.
The Light Messenger nodded to him gratefully: "Thanks to you, Zhang Cheng."
"They are just some small things," Zhang Cheng smiled faintly, but his eyes were still alert. "The maze guardian said that the real danger is still behind. We can't take it lightly."
The Nebula Sage leaned over to check a poisonous fly that had fallen to the ground, frowning, "These poisonous flies... seem to be more ferocious than what is recorded. Their shells are harder and their poison is stronger."
At this moment, the corpses of the poisonous flies that were originally scattered on the ground began to tremble slightly.
Everyone's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition arose.
The corpses of the poisonous flies seemed to be summoned by something and began to gather rapidly, one on top of another, one on top of another, surging like a black tide, piling up into a wriggling mountain of flesh.
The meat mountain continued to expand and deform, and finally, a gigantic flying insect monster appeared in front of everyone.
It has a harder shell than the previous poisonous fly, and it gleams with a terrifying metallic luster.
The huge compound eyes were like two scarlet lanterns, emitting a creepy and murderous light.
It flapped its huge wings, making a deafening buzzing sound, and the surrounding mist was shaken away.
Everyone looked at the giant monster that suddenly appeared before them in astonishment. The previous relief and relief were replaced by fear.
They never imagined that these seemingly weak flying insects could combine into such a terrifying existence.
Klinda turned pale, covered her injured arm, and shouted in horror: "How...how is this possible?!"
The maze guardian stopped and did not look back. A deep voice came from the front: "I said, the real danger is still behind..."
The interstellar knight clenched the sword in his hand, a gleam of excitement flashed in his eyes, he took a step forward, full of fighting spirit: "Let me test its weight!" He took a deep breath, exerted force with his legs, and rushed towards the flying insect monster like an arrow... The interstellar knight turned into a residual image, and the sword in his hand cut through the air and pierced straight into the flying insect monster's huge compound eyes.
However, as soon as the tip of the sword touched the gleaming metallic shell, it was like sinking into a quagmire and was quickly enveloped by countless tiny flying insects.
The flying insect monster let out a sharp hiss, and its huge body shook slightly, as if it wanted to completely devour the interstellar knight.
Seeing this, everyone's hearts tightened. The Light Messenger exclaimed: "Knight!" The Blue Star Guardians also clenched their weapons, ready to support at any time.
Just when everyone thought that the interstellar knight was about to encounter an accident, a strong energy wave suddenly erupted from the flying insect monster's body.
The flying insects that were enveloping the interstellar knight were instantly shattered and dispersed like black smoke.
The figure of the interstellar knight reappeared in front of everyone. He was unharmed, and the sword in his hand was shining brightly.
"I'm not so easy to be swallowed." The Star Knight raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile.
It turned out that he deliberately let the flying insects wrap around himself in order to find an opportunity to fight back.
He used the flying insects' tendency to gather together, concentrated his energy into one point, and exploded instantly, scattering the flying insects in one fell swoop and causing an effective blow to the flying insect monster.
The flying insect monster let out a painful hiss, and its huge body shook, as if it had suffered considerable trauma.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and marveled at the interstellar knight's wit and bravery.
The Lightbringer ran to Klinda and gently held her injured arm. A warm energy slowly flowed into Klinda's body, healing her wounds.
The eyes of the messenger of light were full of heartache and concern. Klinda felt her care and her heart warmed. She smiled at her gratefully.
At this moment, the erratic voice of the Star Spirit sounded in everyone's ears: "We need a trap to trap it." The red-robed wizard shook his head, and the staff in his hand flashed: "No, attack directly and make a quick decision." The Star Spirit and the red-robed wizard's eyes met in the air, and an invisible tense atmosphere spread between the two... "The trap is too slow," the red-robed wizard said firmly, and the staff gently paused on the ground, causing a circle of ripples, "It's injured, now is the best time to attack."
The star spirit flashed with a faint blue light, and its voice was erratic: "You are too reckless, mage. This creature is extremely cunning. A rash attack will only put us in a more dangerous situation. Traps can restrict its movements and allow us to find its weaknesses."
"Weakness? My fireball is its weakness!" The red-robed wizard waved his sleeves, and a ball of scorching flame danced in his palm, reflecting his resolute face.
Zhang Cheng had been observing the situation in silence. He stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "You two, now is not the time to argue." He looked around at the fog and frowned. "Now that the flying insect monsters have disappeared, we should be more cautious. The traps of the Protoss and the attacks of the mages may be combined."
The Nebula Sage stroked his chin and nodded thoughtfully: "Zhang Cheng is right, we can set up traps first, just in case. If the flying insect monster appears again, the mage's attack can also play a key role."
Just as everyone reached a consensus, the fog around them seemed to become thicker, and visibility was less than an arm's length.
The damage caused by the flying insect monster just now was still in front of his eyes, and there was a strange fishy smell in the air.
Silence, suffocating silence enveloped everyone.
The battlefield, which was noisy just now, now seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand.
The Lightbringer subconsciously tightened his grip on Klinda's hand, his fingertips cold.
Clinda could feel the sweat on the Lightbringer's palms. She held the Lightbringer's hand in return, giving her silent comfort.
The interstellar knight looked around vigilantly, and the sword in his hand made a low humming sound, as if responding to the oppression of this space.
The Guardian of Blue Star stood silently beside Zhang Cheng, like a steel barrier, ready to defend against any invading enemy at any time.
Even the usually indifferent star spirit seemed to dim a little, and it slowly revolved around the crowd, as if it was exploring something.
Suddenly, Zhang Cheng's eyes focused, he seemed to have noticed something, and turned his head abruptly to look towards the deep fog on the left.
There, something is moving, approaching...
"Hush..." Zhang Cheng slowly raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet. He lowered his voice and said word by word: "It...is back."
