Chapter 225: The Proud Insect Clone
Dare to lead the army of insect beasts to attack the camp.
This is the last special existence to appear in the illusion of Zhongshan God's warning.
The performance of the insect man is undoubtedly weaker than Yu Ke's psychological expectations, which makes Yu Ke begin to suspect that it has hidden intentions.
The method of dealing with it is very simple, that is, chasing the insect man should not be said to be chasing the insect demon relentlessly.
Previously, relying on Yu Ke's warning, the patrol team took the lead and saved the core of the camp's defense, that is, the obelisk, so that the army of insect beasts was blocked outside, and space was gained for the defense team to avoid falling into chaos.
Yu Ke can also focus all his attention on the insect demon in front of him.
No matter what conspiracy it has, as long as it is killed, everything will be solved.
The effect of the hunting seal is still continuing, and it continuously hunts various attributes, making the insect man more and more embarrassed in the face of Yu Ke's strong attack.
Even if the blood dragon transformation is not used, Yu Ke's combat power can still be called "supermodel" because of the existence of the professional label system.
The Leviathan battle axe with amplification effect, the super physical fitness brought by the dragon bloodline, various characteristics plus skills obtained from various beasts, not to mention the all-purpose means of the dragon-headed warrior.
Apart from other things, the patrol team members around the obelisk were really stunned.
The videos of the hunting log series have not been updated for a while. Yu Ke usually does not appear in the news camera, so the impression of people including the patrol team is still stuck in the state of fighting the two-headed dragon in the secret cave.
It has only been a few months, is the gap so big?
Are they not on the same timeline?
Yu Ke, holding a battle axe, fought fiercely with the insect demon in the empty space of the camp, using various means.
The force between his gestures caused the repeatedly reinforced ground to crack and dent. The golden airflow was so strong that it could easily destroy steel, the insect demon's limbs were no problem, and there was also the more than three-meter-tall dragon-headed warrior.
Even Ansai Li was full of doubts.
What kind of ability is this, why has Yu Ke never shown it before?
The intensity of the battle did not even allow them to intervene.
To put it bluntly, if they came forward, it would only affect Yu Ke's performance, and the long-range gun support could not lock the target.
Yu Ke did not expect the patrol team to help.
Just as Fang Xuanhe said when he asked him to guard the camp, facing the enemy blades that exceeded the defense limit of the camp, ordinary guns and cannons have no meaning to them, and they can only rely on strong people of the same level to fight.
Swinging his fist to break the arm of the insect demon, the Leviathan battle axe chopped into its chest again. Yu Ke estimated the time in his mind, and his movements became more and more crisp, and each move was aimed at the fatal point.
The insect demon seemed to have sensed the effect of the hunting seal. Knowing that it was difficult to win in a frontal battle, it began to switch to a defensive posture, swallowing several insect eggs in succession to recover from its injuries and strengthen its defense, as if it wanted to delay this period of time and wait until the seal ended before counterattacking.
Yu Ke, who had the upper hand, naturally did not want to give the insect demon a chance to turn the tables.
But this guy's defense was indeed tenacious. The insect eggs he had just swallowed caused a large area of bone armor to grow on the surface of his skin, and the layered defense made it difficult to attack.
Out of helplessness, Yu Ke had to output more dragon breath to forcefully break the armor.
Taking advantage of the gap when Yu Ke swung the battle axe, the insect demon suddenly turned around, kicked the ground with its alienated locust legs, and with the acceleration of its insect wings, it rushed straight to a nearby tent. It could sense a lot of human breath in it.
Noticing the direction in which the insect demon fled, Yu Ke's face suddenly changed.
The continuous and fierce battle made him highly focused, so he subconsciously ignored the surrounding environment.
When he saw the tent in front of the insect demon, he suddenly realized that there was a sign of temporary shelter on the top of it. There were several soldiers guarding outside. Inside were all non-combatants in the camp, including Ye Yingtong.
Judging from the insect demon's actions, it obviously wanted to delay time by threatening the lives of innocent people, forcibly dragging the effect of the hunting seal over, and then restraining Yu Ke in the same way.
The soldiers guarding in front of the tent could not stop the insect demon's advance at all.
They were knocked away after just one encounter, and some people were unable to retreat and their arms were torn off by the insect demon. They were thrown as sandbags to Yu Ke who was chasing behind, delaying his actions.
Seeing the situation take a sharp turn for the worse, Yu Ke frowned, and while the hunting seal still had some time left, he decided not to hold back.
The non-combatants in the camp were almost all experts and scholars in the study of relics. If there were a large number of casualties here, it would be a major blow to the archaeological community in Jinghang City. He had to avoid this situation.
But just when Yu Ke was about to activate the dragon blood to end the battle, a familiar figure rushed out of the tent, looking down as if he wanted to escape, but the route he chose was not very good.
He went straight to the insect demon, almost getting into its arms.
Ye Yingtong?
Yu Ke frowned when he saw that it was the girl he had seen not long ago.
If it was someone he didn't know, it would be fine. The information provided by Ye Yingtong helped Yu Ke discover the black copper vein. He recognized this favor and immediately accelerated his actions to save the other person's life.
Seeing someone offering himself to the door, the insect demon did not hesitate at all, and stretched out his arm with a sickle blade straight to Ye Yingtong's neck.
Recalling how weak Ye Yingtong was in the farm, Yu Ke's heart sank. It would take time to activate the blood dragon transformation, and there was no time to rescue her. The former might not be able to escape.
What happened?
What happened in the next second made Yu Ke's eyes widen suddenly.
The moment Ye Yingtong, who seemed to be panicking, approached the insect demon, a red light suddenly rose around her body. Not only was she not killed by the insect demon's sickle blade, but she successfully approached the insect demon with her petite body, and her fists and feet fell on the insect demon like a storm.
The insect demon obviously did not expect that this little girl who came out from the side had such a fierce fighting ability, and was completely caught off guard.
This skill that has been honed for thousands of years could not have been practiced recently!
What surprised Yu Ke even more was that every attack Ye Yingtong made seemed to have some special effect. The armor on the surface of the insect demon was completely unable to block it. The whole body trembled continuously, and a phantom appeared on the back.
Was it that even the soul was beaten out?
Thinking of the changes in Ye Yingtong's body shape when he first met her today, Yu Ke half-closed his eyes and speculated in his heart.
Although he didn't know the details, Yu Ke was 100% sure that the changes in Ye Yingtong were related to the red ghost mask.
Recalling the roar of the red-faced ghost to Ye Yingtong before his death.
Now it seems that it is not a coincidence.
Of course, now is not the time to entangle these things. Ye Yingtong, who was still attacking, had red eyes, and there were many red hairs in her long black hair, as if she had been dyed. However, with her current combat power, she was obviously no match for the insect demon.
The advantage she barely gained by the surprise attack was quickly equalized, and then she turned to a disadvantage!
She only lasted about seven or eight seconds.
That's enough!
Several vines flew from behind, entangled the insect demon's neck and limbs. The dragon-headed warriors each grabbed a few vines and forcibly pulled the insect demon back, away from the tent where the non-combatants were.
Yu Ke stopped activating the dragon's blood, stepped up, and bumped into the insect demon that was pulled back by the dragon-headed warrior and flew in the air.
Looking down from above, he raised the Leviathan battle axe with both hands.
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the insect demon.
The axe blade chopped at the neck, the dragon's breath broke through the defense, and the axe beheaded it!
The hideous head rolled all over the ground, and Yu Ke landed steadily and breathed a sigh of relief.
In order to deal with this insect demon, he used all means except the blood dragon transformation, and finally succeeded in killing it.
Swinging the battle axe and shaking off the blood on the axe blade, Yu Ke looked back at Ye Yingtong standing in front of the tent. The latter seemed to have no intention of hiding. She kept her previous posture and walked straight towards Yu Ke.
Previously, worried about her identity being exposed, Ye Yingtong was never mentally prepared to reveal the existence of the red demon. That’s why she followed the non-combatants to hide in the tent to pay attention to the battle situation. The sudden attack of the insect demon also prompted her to make up her mind to some extent.
Since the red demon has appeared, and in front of Yu Ke, it is purely self-deception to want to hide again. It is better to take the initiative to reveal your identity to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
Yu Ke, who had just finished the battle, did not go to meet him. Compared with Ye Yingtong’s abnormality, he was more concerned about the situation of the insect demon.
Even though the insect demon had been beheaded, Yu Ke’s expression became more solemn.
Not only was it because the means shown by the insect demon in the previous battle were too poor, and it did not look like a monster that could erode the power of the Zhongshan God, Yu Ke also noticed that the beast tide besieging the camp's spiritual barrier showed no sign of dissipating.
It stands to reason that the insect demon is the mastermind behind the insect beast army, and these insect beasts should evacuate immediately after its death.
Something is wrong!
With his eyes locked on the headless corpse on the ground, Yu Ke approached and half-crouched.
After many rounds of close combat and close observation now, the characteristics of checking for leaks and filling in the gaps finally analyzed the information of the monster in front of him.
Proud insect clone: The clone formed by the arrogant insect using insect molting has some of its original abilities.
The information in his mind made Yu Ke startled. Before he could react, the headless torso in front of him, which had lost its energy supply, shrank like a deflated ball, and at the same time, dozens of soul-eating insects flew out of the gap in the neck and fled out of the camp.
The remaining skins were filled with insect eggs that had exhausted their energy and turned into pus.
The insect demon that took so much effort to kill turned out to be just a clone!
Yu Ke stood up suddenly, and at this time he didn't bother to ask about Ye Yingtong's situation, but quickly chased after the fleeing soul-eating insect.
Facts proved that Yu Ke's previous guess was correct.
The insect demon that raided the camp obviously had other plans.
But he didn't expect that it was just a clone that almost broke through the camp.
Wasn't the beast tide sealed in the ruins the real target of this monster called Jiao Chong?
Even if this clone was blown up, the soul-eating insects and many insect eggs inside were completely exposed, Jiao Chong had no intention of supporting it at all.
