Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Centipedes can even grow wings!

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I probably wouldn't have believed it.

However, this is not because the centipede has become a spirit.

Chen Yibai often heard the term "Flying Centipede," and many people even used it as a nickname.

It seems that the term "flying centipede" is not just made up; centipedes really do grow wings after reaching a certain stage of growth.

"Captain Chen..."

Yan Xuefei watched as the flying centipede flapped its enormous wings, its nearly ten-meter-long body resembling a small mountain, and its two venomous fangs on its head, like scythes, fiercely lunged towards her. For a moment, she was so frightened that she panicked and didn't know how to deal with it.

Chen Yibai gripped the crimson ancient sword tightly in his hand, but his expression remained extremely calm. He even raised the corners of his mouth and gave a wicked smile as he looked at the flying centipede that was spreading its wings and pouncing towards him.

Chen Yibai wasn't afraid that the centipede would grow wings; he was afraid that it wouldn't come.

Just as the flying centipede pounced, Chen Yibai's crimson ancient sword, which had been waiting in advance, swung directly at the flying centipede.

Chen Yibai originally intended to finish the battle quickly with this sword strike, directly severing the head of the flying centipede.

Unexpectedly, the flying centipede did not attack with its pair of sickle-like fangs under its head, but instead thrust straight at them with its hundreds of legs.

Its hundreds of legs, covered in long, black hair, were as sharp as serrated sickles, and seemed to be poisonous.

Chen Yibai dared not be careless; his first sword strike could only target the centipede legs.

Swish!

This sword strike, capable of cleaving stone and splitting gold, instantly severed dozens of legs from the upper body of the flying centipede. They fell to the ground like sliced ​​sugarcane, gushing out green blood.

Chen Yibai wanted to press his advantage and was about to raise his sword again when the flying centipede, whose dozens of legs had been cut off, let out a hiss and flapped its huge wings, retreating in place like a dragonfly.

Hovering in mid-air while moving backward in place?

This was something Chen Yibai hadn't expected.

The flying centipede pounced fiercely, then fled in a sorry state. Its enormous body landed back on the cliff face of the cave. However, because dozens of its upper legs had been cut off, the remaining legs on its hind body could not support its entire body, and it crashed down with a rumble along with the rubble. Its delicate, cicada-wing-like wings were also damaged by the impact of its massive body.

Although the flying centipede has two pairs of wings, they are as thin as cicada wings and extremely fragile.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yibai was overjoyed and immediately rushed forward.

The flying centipede seemed to have some kind of spirit. Anything with spirit would be afraid. It saw Chen Yibai rushing over with an evil smile on his face, especially when it saw the crimson ancient sword in Chen Yibai's hand. Its eerie blood-red pupils suddenly contracted, and it immediately flapped its huge wings, trying to take off.

However, due to its damaged wings, the flying centipede, dragging its ten-meter-long body, lost its balance as soon as it took flight and crashed violently into the cave wall, sending rocks flying everywhere.

Before Chen Yibai could catch up again, the flying centipede seemed to have only one stubborn tendon, flapping its wings again in an attempt to take flight. However, just like before, it crashed into the rock wall and fell down.

After repeating this several times, the flying centipede was like a headless fly, flying around and bumping into things in the cave.

Well, that's great. Chen Yibai didn't even have to do anything; the Flying Centipede had already damaged itself and lost most of its health.

After several wild and chaotic crashes, the flying centipede finally ran out of energy. Its wings, as thin as cicada wings, were damaged to the limit, and it was completely unable to fly.

Chen Yibai immediately rushed over. The flying centipede tried to swing its tail and use its tail spines to defend against the attack, all of which were within Chen Yibai's expectations.

The moment the flying centipede's tail spines swung over, Chen Yibai swung his sword and slashed at it. The more than three-meter-wide tail was swept off like slicing a cucumber, and dark green blood splattered all over the ground.

The flying centipede hissed in pain and instantly curled up into a coil.

Without hesitation, Chen Yibai charged forward again and delivered a final blow to the giant head of the flying centipede, which was covered in long whiskers and fangs, beheading it.

Although his movements were stylish and somewhat cool, Chen Yibai was not complacent and had no sense of accomplishment, after all, it was just a 'little centipede' with wings.

Once she was sure the flying centipede was completely dead, Yan Xuefei jogged over from a distance.

Yan Xuefei witnessed the entire scene that just unfolded.

Yan Xuefei's only feeling after watching it was—thank goodness!

Thankfully, I didn't bare my fangs and break ties with Chen Yibai just now; otherwise, the consequence would most likely be having my 'fangs' broken off...

"Captain Chen, are you alright?"

Yan Xuefei, who ran over, quickly pretended to be concerned and tried to build a closer relationship first.

Chen Yibai was well aware of Yan Xuefei's little scheme, so he simply ignored her.

More accurately, he didn't have time to respond to her, as he was staring intently at the cliff face of the cave directly in front of him.

Yan Xuefei also curiously followed Chen Yibai's gaze.

The cliffs of the cave in front of us were different from what we had seen before.

More accurately, it was because the flying centipede's violent impact caused some weathered rocks to fall off the cliff face of the cave.

And at the top of the cave, there was a pitch-black hole!

"That's a robbery hole!"

As a tomb raider, Chen Yibai, being a professional expert, immediately recognized it as a tomb robber's hole!

Nine times out of ten, it was those three experienced tomb raiders who dug the tunnel.

As mentioned before, this place was cleverly constructed using the natural terrain to create a hidden array that was completely invisible to the naked eye. Therefore, after these three colleagues entered, they could no longer find the original tunnel to return.

This visual illusion is caused by the special terrain, which is the mystery of this hidden formation.

However, after the flying centipede caused such a ruckus, it destroyed the natural terrain and inadvertently broke the hidden formation, which is why the tomb robber's tunnel reappeared before our eyes.

"on!"

Chen Yibai looked at Yan Xuefei and said something indifferently.

"Why should I go first? What if you launch a sneak attack from behind?" Yan Xuefei frowned almost imperceptibly, wondering to herself.

"How about I go first, and you wait downstairs?"

Chen Yibai seemed to have seen through Yan Xuefei's thoughts, and raised his eyebrows to ask her a question.

This time, Yan Xuefei understood what Chen Yibai really meant.

For safety reasons, no two people can enter the tunnel at the same time; they must climb up one by one to avoid being attacked from behind.

But the key question is, what if someone goes up first and then blocks the entrance to the tunnel?

Yan Xuefei rolled her eyes, then gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go first, you wait down here..."
