Chapter 166 Insect Swarm

"How to deal with it?" The girls didn't know what insect violence was. They had never heard of this term in the information or from Panis. However, Flar's slightly serious expression made the girls enter a state of alert. Everyone is an experienced adventurer and has long been used to facing unknown emergencies. Therefore, even Lina's first reaction was not to ask what insect violence was, but to ask for countermeasures directly.

"Go back to your room and close the entrance." Panis patted his forehead with some annoyance and said quickly: "Try not to make too loud noises, nor do you make too loud movements, such as cutting trees, there are no restrictions on other things. By the way, unless we prompt for safety, do not step on the ground anyway, absolutely do not. Also, Vivian, now temporarily close all defensive magic circles."

"I understand." Vivian's wand in his hand gently tapped the ground three times, and gave Penis a thumbs up: "It's closed."

"Now go back to the room." Panis bent down and picked up the light mage girl, reached out and pressed her hand gently on the trunk, and the person appeared on the branches in the air: "Don't worry, as long as I do what I said, there will be no danger. Even if there is an accident, you don't have to be afraid. The biggest advantage of the demigod is that he can use the inherent spiritual realm to escape danger."

The girls didn't even answer, and began to climb up the tree without saying a word. The essential quality for every adventurer is that no matter how noisy they are, they will complete the task in the most direct way at the real critical moment, and there will never be a moment of delay, because even a second delay may put themselves and even the entire team in danger. Any adventure without this quality has been eliminated by the cruel reality.

The biggest feature of tall tower trees is that they have many large tree holes distributed on their trunks. The holes are very spacious, and some of them can even lie flat inside. Therefore, adventurers in the forest of death sometimes choose tall tower trees as their habitat. After simple cleaning of the tree holes and sprinkle with some deworming powder, it is a natural small room. Although they are narrow and cramped, they do not need to sleep in the open air anymore. It is already a good environment for outdoor life.

Since it was used to use the abandoned camp of Konada's previous team, the expedition team naturally used the tower to live in a tree according to the original design of the camp, and the tree holes naturally became the room everyone mentioned.

After sending Vivian into her tree hole, Panis waited until everyone returned to his room before drilling into his own tree hole. Before entering the hole, he turned off two crystal energy lamps, which made the campsite fall into darkness, and only the fire on the ground flashed with a faint light.

After entering the tree hole, everyone took out a small bottle from their pockets and applied some liquid in the bottle along the upper edge of the tree hole. The liquid has excellent ductility and stickiness. One end is stuck to the upper edge of the tree hole and stretches downward under the action of gravity. A film-like structure is formed, which seals the entire tree hole. Soon, the film begins to solidify and eventually becomes a yellow transparent barrier. Although the barrier is thin, it is very hard, and isolates the inside and outside of the tree hole into two worlds.

In fact, the so-called liquid is a nearby resin called a viscose tree. Wherever there is a high tower tree growing, the existence of a viscose tree can be found within a hundred meters. The resin of the viscose tree can be applied to the caves of the high tower tree. It is like a gift specially prepared by nature for adventurers. The viscose resin will become very hard after solidification. Ordinary flying insects and small animals cannot break this thin layer of barrier, making the tree hole quite safe. It is very simple for people inside to get out. You can use brute force to break the viscose barrier. Of course, the more correct way is that the clothes rub at high speed on the barrier. The temperature changes generated will restore the viscose to soften and can be easily torn open. Not only that, the biggest advantage of viscose is that it has good breathability. After solidification, the barrier is covered with small holes that cannot be seen by the naked eye. The air inside and outside can flow freely and you will never feel stuffy.

After closing the tree hole, the girls finally relaxed and lay on the transparent adhesive barrier and looked out. Although it was very dark outside, with the help of the light in the stove, they could barely see the situation on the ground.

Soon, a strange rustling sound rang around the camp, as if countless bugs were crawling on the ground, making people feel itchy all over when they heard it. However, the girls soon realized that it was not like it at all, but that there were indeed countless bugs moving close to the ground.

In the range of the fire, countless crawlers were mixed together. The insects were of different sizes and various types, squeezing into a ball and squirming forward like a black carpet. In the insect swarm, there were large individuals such as centipedes and horse lands, as well as spiders and cockroaches the size of thumb. As for smaller individuals that were too dim to distinguish due to the light, they certainly existed. Even if the small individuals that could not be distinguished and the large insects that could be seen clearly, the girls had seen more than a hundred species, most of which were strange existences that could not be named, and only a few insects could be seen frequently in the outside world.

As the insects moved, in addition to the rustling sound, there were also bursts of strange sweet fragrance. When smelling this fragrance, the girls immediately took the antidote potion provided by Vivian. They knew very well that these so-called fragrances were actually emitted by highly toxic insects. Due to too many, the faint smell mixed together and aggravated countless times, the sweet fragrance is formed. This sweet fragrance contains a strong toxicity. If it is an ordinary person's constitution, if it is just a smell, it will soon be poisoned and die. Even legendary professionals need antidote potion to relieve physical discomfort.

The bugs on the ground seemed endless, and they didn't know when they would pass by them all. Moreover, the rustling sound had not disappeared, and an upset buzzing sound came from nearby.

The next moment, the girls found that they could not see anything. Countless flying insects flew past the tower trees, completely obscuring the space outside. Through the transparent barrier, the unclear shadows in front of the girls were shaking, unable to see the size or the species, and there was only a mess.

After watching for a while, the girls had to lower their eyes and no longer observe the world outside the barrier. Because the chaotic black shadows outside were shaking too violently, the girls felt dizzy and nauseous, so they had to lower their heads and use their voices to judge the situation outside.
