Chapter 106: The tree hole maze and the strange insects

Translator: 549690339

Tang Zhen came to the stump of the mountain and looked up!

“This mountain-like stump had an extremely ancient aura. The trunk was as hard as a rock, and the peeled bark revealed mottled colors. The rest of the tree was covered in moss. ” 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

Tang Zhen lowered his head and looked at the huge tree hole in front of him that was over ten meters tall. It seemed to be extremely dark inside. He did not know what unknown danger was hidden inside. He turned his head and looked at the dog-headed people that were only a few dozen meters away from him. Tang Zhen no longer hesitated. He turned his head and directly entered the tree hole.

“When the dog-headed people chasing behind saw Tang Zhen enter the tree hole, they immediately left ten dog-headed people to guard the entrance. The rest of the dog-headed people also rushed into the tree hole like a swarm of bees. ”

The space inside the tree hole was extremely large. It was so large that it was inconceivable. It was different from the pitch-black darkness that Tang Zhen had imagined. The interior of the tree hole was filled with beautiful fluorescent things. It was unclear whether they were plants or animals. They slightly swayed their tentacle-like limbs and constantly scattered fluorescent dust into the dark tree hole.

Being in such a cave was like being in a fairy tale world!

Tang Zhen was not bewitched by this beautiful scene. Only the heavens knew if this powder was poisonous. It was better to be careful!

“He tied the towel tightly to his face and looked around. He found that there were countless tunnels inside the tree hole, as if they were gnawed out by giant worms. They were winding and led to unknown places. ”

The dog-headed people behind him had already rushed in. Tang Zhen no longer hesitated. He randomly picked a hole and quickly entered it.

“The dog-headed people who were following closely behind did not see which passage Tang Zhen had entered. In addition, their sense of smell had lost its effect, and a strange smell filled the tree hole. The dog-headed people were at a loss for a moment. They had actually lost Tang Zhen! ”

“For the dog-headed people who were good at tracking, this was a great humiliation! ”

“After being defeated by Tang Zhen one after another, the leader of the dog-headed people was about to go crazy. It turned around in place for more than ten times and even stuck its nose to the ground to sniff for a long time. Finally, it roughly determined the direction in which Tang Zhen had escaped. However, what gave it a headache was that there were dozens of holes in the same direction. Only God knew which hole Tang Zhen had entered. ”

“The kobold leader had no choice but to send a few kobolds to each cave. He didn’t hope to kill Tang Zhen. He only hoped that they could call out to him in time when they discovered him. This way, the kobolds nearby could rush over to help. No matter what, they had to get back the brain and Tang Zhen had to be brought back to be executed. ”

“The kobold leader’s idea was good, but when the group of kobolds entered the tree hole, they realized that the inside of the tree hole was like a huge maze. Some of the passages overlapped, some were completely dead ends, and some had several forks as they walked. ”

“It didn’t take long for the dog-headed people to lose their sense of direction. They began to frantically search for a path in the tunnel, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t find the right direction. ”

“Before the dog-headed people’s sense of smell recovered, they could only run around in this maze-like passage. Even if their sense of smell recovered, they might not be able to walk out of this maze-like passage. ”

“Not long after, the hoarse screams of the kobolds could be faintly heard. It was unknown what they had encountered. ”

“Tang Zhen slowly walked through the tunnel that was lit up by the fluorescent creatures. However, he did not relax his vigilance in the slightest. He had long discovered the strangeness of this tunnel. If he were to randomly scurry around, it was very likely that he would be lost in this tunnel and might not be able to exit it in his entire life. ”

“Tang Zhen had the map teleportation ability and did not need to worry that he would not be able to charge out. At this moment, he felt sad for those stubborn dog-headed people chasing him. He believed that they would definitely be like headless flies, randomly running and bumping around in the tunnel, right? ”

“Tang Zhen used the [ monster detector ] to scan the fluorescent creatures that were growing on the tunnel. He discovered that they were not monsters. Tang Zhen heaved a sigh of relief after knowing the exact result. If these fluorescent creatures that were everywhere were also monsters, then even if he had the ability to fly in the sky and burrow into the ground, it would be difficult for him to avoid being disturbed. ”

“By relying on the heaven-defying function of the map, Tang Zhen could see all the passages within the displayed range and even the general scenery of the passages. ”

“With such an intuitive display, Tang Zhen began to distinguish the way forward from these giant worm-like holes. However, the range of his map was limited and the area of the withered tree stump was too large. He couldn’t determine which passage was the way out. ” 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

“Just as Tang Zhen was trying to find a clue from the chaotic passage, two dog-headed people that appeared within the range of the map attracted his attention. This was because these two dog-headed people were currently in danger. ”

“An earthworm-like red ringed worm suddenly emerged from the hole that was covered by the fluorescent creatures, and ruthlessly stabbed into the body of a dog-headed man. The dog-headed man who was attacked immediately stood still on the spot, as if a spell had been cast on him. ”

“The other dog-headed man saw that his companion had stopped and was about to ask, but he was also stabbed by a strange insect that suddenly appeared, and he froze on the spot. ”

More and more strange insects crawled out from the walls and stabbed into the dog-headed men’s bodies. It was as if the two dog-headed men were two marionettes that were controlled by the strange insects.

“The two houndhead men looked at each other and saw fear and panic in each other’s eyes. However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t get out of their stiff state. ”

“Slowly, the dog-headed man felt that his body was full. Then, it felt as if something had been stuffed into his body, and the more it was stuffed, the more it felt. It even felt that its stomach was about to burst, and there seemed to be something in its throat that was about to come out. ”

“The two houndhead men couldn’t see their own bodies, but they could see their companion’s appearance. Then, they were horrified to find that their companion’s body was gradually expanding, and it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger! ”

The bellies of the two houndhead men seemed to have become as thin as cicada’s wings. One could even see the blood vessels on the skin and the intestines inside.

“Tang Zhen, who was observing the two kobolds through the map, saw the details of the entire process, causing his scalp to involuntarily turn numb. ”

“These worms seemed to have a strong numbing ability, but they could make their targets lose their ability to move immediately after being attacked. However, they were not planning to eat the kobolds, but were laying eggs inside their bodies! ”

“After Tang Zhen saw the strange insect Pierce into the dog-headed man’s body, its body slowly wriggled. Round insect eggs the size of ping-pong balls were squeezed out from the body of the passage and continuously injected into the dog-headed man’s body. Every time seventeen or eighteen insect eggs were injected into the dog-headed man’s body, it would fall to the outer wall of the passage like a deflating balloon, as if it was completely dead. ”

“However, there were more than 100 strange insects on the two dog-headed people’s bodies. Hence, an endless stream of insect eggs was injected into the two dog-headed people’s bodies. During this time, strange insects kept dying. ”

“By the time all the strange insects had been injected with eggs, the two houndhead men had turned into two round balls. They could not move and fell to the ground, becoming the hotbeds for the hatching of strange insects! ”

“A few strange insects with green skin slowly appeared. They swam near the head of the dog-headed man and inserted their tails into the dog-headed man’s throat. Then, they seemed to excrete something. However, the dog-headed man, who was originally dying, immediately became energetic after the green insect’s excrement entered his stomach. ”

“The dog-headed people seemed to want to get up and run away, but their bodies, which had been deformed to an exaggerated extent, could not make any movements. They could only look at each other’s unrecognizable faces and feel the fear brought by the trembling and wriggling eggs in their bodies. They ate the excrement of the strange green insects to maintain their lives. Only when the eggs hatched and broke out of their bodies did the two dog-headed people have hope of being completely free! ”

Tang Zhen took a deep breath as he looked at the two dog-headed people who wished they were dead. He took out the purple electric short sword and activated the [ adjustable neurodevice type infrasonic wave generator ] again. A wave of death swept out toward his path.
