The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters.

Chapter 81 Reunion of old enemies (two in one)

With the restorative powers of Wild Heart.

Yu Ke joins the battle after a short rest.

He did not get close to the swamp monster, but used his sharp-toothed bow and arrow to cause damage from a distance.

Eight extraordinary people plus a dozen members of the elite hunting group surrounded and killed them. This force was close to the top of the people in the Danhang area, and even the giant beasts of the water could not hold it back.

If the battlefield is deep in the water, it may still have a chance to gain an advantage by relying on deep-diving raids. This giant beast that has lost its mind and suffered large-scale body distortion is trapped deep in the dense forest. Its bloated body makes it even more difficult to get in and out.

Phosphorescent filthy blood filled the forest water.

Flowers representing infection grew out of the hideous wounds, making the monster on its way to the end of the road extremely bright.

"Fix it quickly, otherwise it may suffer secondary distortion."

Aiming at the neck of the giant beast and shooting an arrow, Yu Ke reminded the three hunting group leaders on the communication channel as he thought of checking for any gaps in the description of the giant beast.

"Got it, get ready for flash bombs!"

Zhao Qi, the leader of the Yalang Hunting Group, shouted with hot air gushing out from his mouth and nose.

Although the Forest Protection Bureau did not reveal much information about Pandora to them, the hunting group knew that the aberrant beast was afraid of strong light.

Tom ~ Tom ~ Tom ~
Only a few muffled sounds were heard, and multiple flash shock grenades were ejected from the grenade gun.

The sudden burst of bright light caused the giant beast to fall into a brief trance, and its body became sluggish.

The best time to end the battle has arrived.

However, Yu Ke stopped at this moment and moved closer to the edge of the dense forest area to check the situation in the water.

Based on his prior speculation, he believed that Pandora was not far from here and was hiding somewhere in the waters. The behemoth's defeat was likely to cause Pandora to emerge from the water or show off its traps.

This opportunity only comes once, so you must seize it.

This is also the main reason why Yu Ke asked the Forestry Protection Bureau to monitor this area in advance. The Jinghu Lake area is too large and shrouded in mist, so his observation range is limited.

The three hunting groups who seized the opportunity violently attacked the swamp beasts, bringing the siege to its end.

The hair on Hu Yingjie's face showed signs of disappearing, so he simply exploded with all his strength while the blood potion was still effective. He opened his arms wide and tightened his five fingers into claws, and dark cyan energy immediately gathered.

Zhao Qi and Li Jiangong did not hesitate, each used their strongest means and stood up.

In an instant, a dark blue air flow, a bright silver spear, and two sharp long knives passed over the neck of the giant beast one after another, completely destroying its head, leaving only the stinking flesh and blood scattered in all directions. The body fell into the water, shaking a large area. Water waves.

Hunting successful!

The three hunting group leaders each landed, their faces filled with uncontrollable joy, and the members of the hunting group cheered one after another.

Successfully hunting a monster of this size is undoubtedly an unprecedented feat.

Even if it is difficult to collect trophies due to the infection, the hunting videos alone will still allow them to gain a prominent reputation as giant beast hunters after returning to Danhang City. The Forestry Defense Bureau, which has reached a cooperation agreement in advance, will also pay them for this. A handsome bounty.

Yu Ke, who turned around and saw this scene, couldn't help but frown.

Of course he was happy that Hu Yingjie and others had eliminated this monster.

The problem is that until now, there are no signs of chaotic colors or ferocious beast activities in the nearby swamp.

This was inconsistent with what Yu Ke had expected.

There is no doubt that the deformed state of this giant swamp beast is the most serious one Yu Ke has ever seen so far, and the concentration of infection sources in its body is even more exaggerated. It is completely different from the deformed beasts encountered before, and it can even directly use Chaos. Color attacks!
This led Yu Ke to infer that Pandora was lurking nearby.

Is this guy just an accident?

Or is it that Pandora actually doesn't care about the aberrations infected by it at all, or that the former noticed the existence of Yu Ke and others through the successive defeats of the aberrations, and chose to retreat and hibernate in advance.

Just when Yu Ke was struggling with the complicated thoughts in his mind, the sudden sound of gunshots in the dense forest made his eyes freeze, and the cheers of the hunting group members also stopped abruptly.

Zhao Qi and Li Jiangong thought that their subordinates were too excited and went off the rails, and were about to reprimand them.

Unexpectedly, there was another explosion, and a ball of blood suddenly spattered from the forehead of the member of the Beacon Hunting Group who was standing at the edge of the team, and his body was carried forward and fell to the ground.

At this moment everyone realized that it was not a fire accident but an enemy attack.

"Poacher! Find cover quickly!"

Yu Ke didn't care about looking for Pandora at this time and stood up suddenly and shouted.

You must know that this area is now concentrated with three A-level hunting groups: Silver Fox, Yalang, and Fenghuo. Those who can break into the Jing Lake swamp like them and dare to shoot and attack at this time can only be those groups of innocent people. A poacher with a bottom line.

Facts have proved that Yu Ke's guess was correct.

As soon as he got up and hid behind a tree, he looked up and saw more than 20 gunmen in camouflage uniforms and masks in the dense forest not far ahead, pouring firepower towards him. From time to time, there were also grenades and rocket launchers. It flew towards them, causing a series of explosions.

"These bastards are looking for death!"

Li Jiangong, who had a long sword protruding from his forehead, gritted his teeth and cursed, then slashed the tree trunk with his arm blade, leaving a ravine.

The three hunting groups consumed a lot of ammunition and energy in hunting the giant swamp beasts, and many people were injured. It can be said that these poachers appeared at the right time when they were most tired. The purpose is self-evident, which is to snatch the fruits of victory.

Thanks to the fact that the members of the hunting group present were all elite, and there were extraordinary people on duty, they quickly launched a counterattack after the initial chaos. Several extraordinary people even used the complex environment in the forest to start approaching the poaching team.

Yu Ke looked at the criss-crossing fire network in front of him, his eyes passing over the group of poachers, and he became increasingly confused.

Judging from the current situation, there is no extraordinary person among this group of people. Who gave them the courage to challenge the A-level hunting group?
No, that's not right.

The position where they appeared was exactly diagonal to the corpse of the giant beast in the water. They all used firearms and threw grenades and flash bombs as if they were free. It was clear that they did not want to fight in close combat and planned to just spend it like this.

Shouldn't the purpose of a sneak attack be a quick victory?
With this thought, Yu Ke suddenly turned back to look at the giant swamp beast, and quickly realized that that was their ultimate goal.

The team of armed poachers is most likely just a bait to attract attention!

"Don't be fooled by them. The poachers are targeting the carcasses of giant beasts. Intercept them!"

While reminding the three hunting leaders, Yu Ke rushed towards the giant beast's corpse with a long bow, preparing to take precautions in advance. But on the way, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow squirming in the water beneath his feet.

He hurriedly lowered his head to check, but what he saw in front of him made Yu Ke's scalp numb.

I saw countless long black insects swarming out of nowhere in the dense forest and swamp. They shuttled between the roots of the giant trees and headed straight for the corpse of the giant beast, as if they were heading for a feast.

To find out what these long black worms were, Yu Ke jumped from the roots of the giant tree to the water. As his mind turned, two streams of water immediately restrained the long black insects and rose up, allowing Yu Ke to see more clearly.

These long black worms are about 30 centimeters long, like enlarged versions of leeches, except that they have two whiskers at the front, the mouthparts below are full of sharp cone-shaped teeth, and there are also stacked semicircular carapace on the back. .

There is no information about such long insects in Yu Ke's memory.

But one thing he was sure of.

That is, the appearance of these long black insects here is by no means a coincidence, but is controlled by a certain existence!
As we approached the corpse of the giant beast in the water, the water surface here was already occupied by countless long black worms. They burrowed into the giant beast's body from among the bright flowers that covered the corpse, as if gnawing at the remaining flesh and blood of the latter. .
Are there any insects that dare to compete with Pandora for food?

Faced with this incredible situation, Yu Ke didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

He was unable to destroy the remains of the giant beast immediately. The number of long worms was too large, and a considerable number of them had already penetrated into the corpse of the giant beast. If he wanted to kill them, he would have to penetrate into the infected wreckage.

Yu Ke's entanglement did not last long.

The reason is simple. Compared to his helplessness, the chaotic color in the giant beast's corpse is obviously more concerned about these "intruders".

The infection source whose dominant position was provoked immediately launched an attack on these long insects. From Yu Ke's perspective, he could clearly see the brown-yellow pink mist gradually filling the bright flowers.

Through research on the mutated mandrill, the Forestry Protection Bureau learned that pollen will contaminate all objects it touches. This is one of Pandora's main means of eroding the Jinghu Forest.

The corpse of the swamp beast should have become the source of infection, but the stimulation of the insect swarm accelerated this process.

Yu Ke stopped. He didn't want to get close at this time. If he got infected, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, in the few seconds he hesitated, something even weirder happened. Facing the extremely dangerous brown-yellow fog, the long black worms surrounding the swamp beast not only did not retreat, but became even more crazy!

These insects of unknown origin carried Pandora's infection and shuttled back and forth among the flowers, so that the crowded flowers continued to squirm, and a large amount of skin and flesh fell off the giant beast's corpse.

Pandora's infection has no effect on them!

What is going on?

Yu Ke looked at the long black insect imprisoned by the current beside him, and the information he had checked and filled in finally emerged.

Filth bug: An insect born from highly toxic filth. It has extremely strong vitality. In order to propagate the race, it will search for filthy things that can evolve the race at any cost.

Almost at the same time that Yu Ke read the information about the insects, a large group of long black insects suddenly spewed out from the flowers. They entangled each other and formed a sphere. They used their carapace to forcefully tear open the infected flowers.

At the moment of escaping from the trap, the "worm ball" suddenly collapsed and was replaced by an insect the size of an ordinary calf with turbid yellow wings that forcibly took off under the cover of the former.

Under its body, six jointed limbs clasped tightly around a heart filled with chaotic colors.
It was by no means a simple distorted organ. Yu Ke could sense that it contained some indescribable dirty energy.

Although Yu Ke didn't know what the energy in this heart was, he knew very well how terrible the dangers of this thing were. Regardless of whether this insect was brought by a poacher organization or not, he had to stop it!

Without any hesitation, Yu Ke bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and the two arrows shot out instantly.

This flying insect was not small in size and was only 20 meters away. Yu Ke was 100% confident in shooting it.

The premise is that there is no forced interference from outside forces.

Seeing that the flying insect that had successfully "robbed the treasure" was about to be shot, the person hiding in the dark finally couldn't hold it any longer. A thick and long tongue rushed out from the side and forcibly intercepted the arrow.

'Can't you finally bear it? '

Yu Ke looked in the direction where his tongue was sticking out, and what came into view was a rather familiar ricket figure.

There was still nothing next to him, except for a tongue that disappeared as it rebounded.

A ferocious beast servant with a green-gray pointed beak and a rat face who can become invisible.

It was the members of the Nightmare organization who pretended to be ghosts to attack and kill ordinary people in Danhang City not long ago!
"Oh, should we say we are destined?"

The rat-faced man obviously recognized the long bow in Yu Ke's hand, and his voice became colder and colder.
"It's true that if you don't take the road to heaven, there will be no door to hell. There is no one from the Disaster Prevention Bureau to help you prevent the disaster today!"

"I should have thought that you are the only one who likes to play with disgusting bugs, but you are the only one who likes to play with disgusting bugs. Why, your left hand is so good that you are so brave that you rush to the Jinghu Lake to be tortured?"

Yu Ke glanced at the rat-faced man's exposed left hand. If he remembered correctly, he used frost energy to severely injure this guy's left hand that night. Unexpectedly, it had recovered as before in just a few days.

The members of the Nightmare organization killed in Jinghu Forest last night suddenly came to mind.

Yu Ke suddenly realized that the Nightmare Organization might have learned detailed information about the aberrant beast through his experiments, and then he wanted to forcibly seize the source of infection from the giant beast's corpse.

"Yu Ke, what's going on here?"

Hu Yingjie and others rushed here, noticed the rat-faced man and the flying insect confronting Yu Ke, and hurriedly asked.

"Leave it to me here, you guys must stop that insect and don't let it escape!"

Before Hu Yingjie could finish his words, Yu Ke pointed at the flying insects in the air and said in a deep voice.

If possible, Yu Ke would like to shoot down the flying insect himself. However, he is very clear about the strength and methods of the rat-faced man in front of him. If Hu Yingjie and others, who have been greatly exhausted in physical strength, are allowed to stay, they will definitely suffer a big loss. .

Especially the ferocious beast servant named "Wuxian", if the perception is not strong enough, it will be easy to find flaws.

In comparison, flying insects that are busy escaping are undoubtedly easier to deal with.

Although they were confused about the situation at the scene, Yu Ke's identity still made Hu Yingjie and others have enough trust in him. They immediately chased the flying insect and tried to intercept it.

The rat-faced man had no intention of stopping them and allowed them to leave, his eyes under the mask staring at Yu Ke.

He seemed to have the same idea as Yu Ke, both wanted to block the enemy's strongest combat power.

"It seems you have an accomplice hiding in the dark. It can't be cockroaches. It's a bit disgusting."

Yu Ke drew out the arrow, and his heart sank when he saw the rat-faced man's calm look.

The Forestry Protection Bureau or the Disaster Prevention Bureau devoted all its attention to the plan to find and eliminate Pandora. Little did they know that in addition to Pandora in the Jinghu Forest, there was also a group of people rushing out smelling the "smell of blood". Here comes the poachers!
"So what, now that I have obtained the item, do you think you can get it back with just those few powerful crossbows?"

Special steel claws covered the palms of the hands, and the rat-faced man did not hide them, and said with a sinister smile,
"Why don't you take care of yourself first? I let you take advantage of me last time, and I plan to get it back with interest this time."

"Of course you can, as long as you die quickly enough!"

Yu Ke half-squinted his eyes, let go of the bow and arrow, and turned to hold the Leviathan ax handle, his words filled with murderous intent.

　Sorry, the update is a bit late.

　　My New Year is over, and I have returned to Hangzhou today. I am a little tired. I have only slept for five hours in the past two days. I will resume normal updates tomorrow, and I will try to have as many words as possible.
