Heavenly Calamity - Chapter 16

[Chapter 16 Death Mantis]

This elite spider, which is obviously not weak, was cut in half neatly and fell into the grass, with no trace of fighting around.

Zhang Mu said softly, “Be careful to step back, let’s get out of here.”

When the five of them saw the elite spider, their hearts were already shivering.

Spider Elite took Liu Yao away for no more than five minutes at most. In other words, it died here not long ago.

Maybe the thing that killed the spider didn’t get far.

There are dense grass around, and many people are close to it, and no one knows what is hidden inside.

A gust of wind blew from the south, brushing over the weeds and shrubs, only to hear the branches and leaves rubbing together, making a rustling sound.

The six talents suddenly felt that it was quiet, too quiet.

In addition to wind noise, in addition to the friction of branches and leaves.

Can’t even hear the birdsong.

Zhang Mu’s heart suddenly tightened as he looked up at the tree not far away.

On that tall tree, there is a huge monster.

It is covered in green and integrated with the trees, about one meter five in height, more than four meters in length, with a triangular head, large and bright compound eyes, slender antennae on the head, huge abnormal forelimbs, and sickle-shaped tibia… , is a mantis!

[Death Mantis], level 6 silver elite, HP 600, magic 400, attribute?

, Introducing: The praying mantis symbolizing death!

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, no one would have believed that there would be a four-meter-long praying mantis in the world!

This damn insect is much bigger than a buffalo!

The death mantis stood on six thin legs, two forelimbs with scythes, holding a black thing, it was the head of the spider elite, slowly gnawing with chewing mouthparts, most of the spider’s head was eaten, sticky The liquid keeps dripping on the leaves below.

While eating the spider’s head, the mantis stared coldly at the six people below with its pitch-black compound eyes without the slightest hint of emotion.

Although the death mantis is only level 6, it can be used as a silver elite, and its combat power is much higher than that of the bronze elite deinonychus of level 7.

The Death Mantis is too strong, and it is still a speed-type monster. Zhang Mu’s current equipment and skills may not be able to deal with it.

However, the death mantis already has a favorite food, so it is not very interested in a few people. As long as it does not provoke it, it should not attack.

Several people all had a tacit understanding, said nothing, and slowly backed away.

“What’s the matter, everyone!” Qin Min couldn’t see and didn’t realize the danger. When he felt that the surrounding atmosphere was not right, he subconsciously asked.

The death mantis was startled, and the triangular head suddenly lifted up, and the black gem-like compound eyes glowed with a cruel and fierce light.

Zhang Mu was shocked: “Damn, let’s go!”

The death mantis suddenly opened its wings, and the green body swooped over like a gust of wind.

Zhang Mu immediately fell to the ground, only to feel the strong wind passing over his head, his hair was cut off in a tuft, and the strong wind swept towards the people behind him.

The mantis green arm blade came over, Sun Bing barely had time to react, just raised the shield, the whole person flew upside down several meters away, slammed into a tree heavily, the shield dropped out of his hand, fell ten meters away, more than A deep knife mark appeared.

Sun Bing clutched Xue Linlin’s right hand and screamed in pain. Because his physique was not high enough to withstand the force, his arm was fractured on the spot.

Sun Bing is still like this. Others were slashed with a knife. Except for the result of blood splashing five steps and dividing the body on the spot, I really can’t think of any other possibility.

Fatty was terrified, and he stepped back in a hurry, not daring to confront him.

Chen Ling was so frightened that she hid in a bush and did not dare to show her face.

The death mantis was attracted by Leng Yun and Qin Min. Leng Yun ran the slowest because he wanted to pull Qin Min.

When Zhang Mu stood up, he saw the death mantis raise a knife arm. He quickly slid over and shouted at the same time: “Be careful, it will attack with skills, dodge!”

too late.

The death mantis arm blade waved an air blade that was indistinguishable to the naked eye, and even the grass was flattened by a layer. Qin Min and Leng Yun were double-clicked, and blood splattered. The two fell to the ground, and their life and death were unknown.

“Damn!”

Zhang Mu shouted angrily and slashed the mantis on the back with a fish-fearing sword.

The attack and speed of the mantis are amazing, but the defense is not very good, causing 31 health points.

The dagger of the left hand pierced into the abdomen of the praying mantis. Because of the assassination, the speed was extremely fast. The mantis did not rush to avoid it. There were multiple holes in the abdomen, and blood flowed out from it.

The death mantis made an ear-piercing scream, and the arm blade moved with it, sweeping over like lightning.

Zhang Mu stepped back half a step, the edge of the blade brushed past him, but his fierce energy hit his body. Fortunately, he was protected by leather armor, causing only 17 points of damage.

Zhang Mu is a level 5 ranger, with only 60 health points in total, plus 15 points of equipment bonus, so a total of 75 points of health points.

It was only rubbed by the attack of the death mantis, and it was reduced by 17 points. It is evident that the attack power of the death mantis is strong.

Zhang Mu bent down to avoid the arm blade, and at the same time he swooped on it, he tore a deep wound with the fear fish sword. The short sword in his left hand was just raised, and he was about to make it up, but the death mantis swept the arm blade, and the short sword was directly pierced. It was knocked into the air, and Zhang Mu’s left hand was hit by the force and almost broke.

There was a screeching sound in the distance, and an ice arrow hit the dead mantis in the back, dealing 45 damage.

Seeing this, Zhang Mu felt a little relieved, at least Leng Yun didn’t die!

The death mantis was affected by the frost effect, and its speed was slowed down a lot, and angrily turned to look in the direction of Leng Yun.

Leng Yun’s face was pale, blood was dripping from the fishbone staff, and he was obviously seriously injured. His beautiful eyes were full of anger, staring at the death mantis… Qin Min could not stand up.

The fat man blushed when he saw this, and roared loudly: “I’m fighting with you!”

Just as the death mantis was about to fly away, the fat man charged with a savage charge, causing the death mantis to fall into a daze, and the axe chopped off one of the mantis’s legs.

Sun Bing picked up his shield, “Bug, look here!” He yelled and used a taunt at the death mantis.

The death mantis turned back to be an air blade. Although Sun Bing had been prepared to block the attack with his shield, he was still knocked flying by the huge force, and his whole body was covered in blood and fell to the ground.

Fatty was about to attack again. The death mantis scythe arm collided, and Fatty screamed and flew backwards. All were seriously injured and it was impossible to continue the fight.

The dead mantis had 70% of its health remaining, and was about to pounce on the seriously injured Sun Bing. Zhang Mu had already picked up the dagger and shouted a few times, attracting the attention of the mantis. He slid over and stopped in front of him.

“squeak–!”

The body of the death mantis rose, staring at Zhang Mu condescendingly, raising both arms at the same time, crossing left and right to slash at Zhang Mu.

If this blow hits, Zhang Mu will definitely be cut into three pieces.

Zhang Mu stood motionless, the moment when the mantis arm was about to hit his body, he activated the natural blessing, and invincible state bounced off the knife arm at the same time, and the reaction force made the death mantis stagger backwards.

Zhang Mu seized the momentary flaw and jumped up two meters with all his strength. The two swords spun around in the palm of his hand, held it with his backhand, and inserted them into the eyes of the mantis.

No matter what kind of creature it is, the eyes must be the key and the most vulnerable part of the body.

The two swords, one long and one short, were deeply inserted into the eyes. This attack caused huge damage. The life of the dead mantis dropped from 70% to more than 30% in an instant. He pulled out his short sword and rolled forward from the ground, avoiding the flurry of sword arms, and came to the mantis flank, with two swords slashing on his back.

“hiss–!”

The death mantis was blinded, but he could judge the approximate position of Zhang Mu, and he swung his blade towards it. Zhang Mu barely kept up with the speed, and his double swords blocked it in front of him. He staggered back six or seven steps before standing firm.

At this time, the fat man was covered in blood, and rushed over again, roaring: “Kill!” He slashed down with an axe, and hit the connection between the head and the body. This is the smallest part of the mantis’ body, and it is also one of the key points. The head was almost chopped off in half, and the health dropped to 15%.

A Frostbolt came over from Leng Yun, dealing 43 points of damage.

The death mantis has 8% health remaining.

Zhang Mu and Fatty joined forces to launch another round of attacks, and the death mantis fell to the ground, dead!

Three items exploded, a skill book, an emerald green sword, an emerald green ring, and dozens of gold coins.

In addition, Zhang Mu, Leng Yun, Sun Bing, and Fatty gained an average of 18% experience points!

“What’s up with Qin Min!”

Zhang Mu didn’t look at the spoils, and immediately ran over to check Qin Min’s condition.

Qin Min fell in a pool of blood, and most of his abdomen was cut open, penetrating through it from front to back, pulling the terrifying angle, internal organs leaked out, and some of the intestines and organs were cut off.

She didn’t completely die, her mouth was slightly open, and her pupils were completely dilated on a pair of cloudy eyes.

Leng Yun shouted at a loss: “We obviously killed the monster! Why, why didn’t she level up!”

Qin Min’s HP dropped to zero. Although his body was not completely dead, he could be judged dead by the system, so he could not be saved.

Zhang Mu glanced at Leng Yun and shook his head silently.

Leng Yun’s eyes were wet, and she carefully held Qin Min’s head in her arms.

“Xiao Min, don’t be afraid, we are all here.”

Qin Min’s lips trembled a few times, “Sister Leng Yun, I… I’m so cold!”

Leng Yun couldn’t hold back her sadness any longer, and tears fell from her cheeks like broken pearls.

Fatty and Sun Bing were covered in blood, and they walked over with their arms. When they saw Qin Min’s tragic state, they were all stunned.

Zhang Mu bent down and sighed, “I’m sorry.”

“No, Captain Wood…” Qin Min’s mouth gushed with blood, and said with difficulty: “You are… a good person! You are very strong… You will definitely become a top person, I really want… I really want to break out into the world with you, but unfortunately, I have to leave.”

Qin Min continued: “Sister Leng Yun, don’t be sad, I’m very afraid of death… But now, suddenly I’m not afraid… Because I can get to know everyone before I die, I… I’m very satisfied. Thank you, Captain Wood, you must Alright… stay alive!”

She’s running out of time.

“Don’t talk about it.” Zhang Mu held his cold hand and asked in his softest voice, “What do you wish for?”

“Wish? If…if the captain can meet my sister and my parents…hope, I hope you can take care of it.” Qin Min suddenly sobbed in a low voice, “I really miss them, I really want, I really want, okay. think……”

Her voice got smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely.

Zhang Mu released his hand, closed his eyes for her, and sighed, “Please rest assured.”

Leng Yun hugged the corpse tightly, this strong woman cried like a tearful man.

Sun Bing also had red eyes and clenched fists. He fought side by side for many days, and his feelings were always there.

Even the cynical and carefree fat man showed a sad and sad expression at the moment.

“Damn it! Damn it! This damn bug!”

The fat man cursed several times, and regardless of the serious injury, he picked up the axe and ran to the dead mantis’ body, frantically slicing the mantis’ head into pieces.

Zhang Mu’s expression was very calm, not cold-blooded, but it was common for his companions to die by his side.

His calm gaze swept across Leng Yun, Fatty, and Sun Bing, but he did not speak.

This is not a fairy tale.

Companion death is inevitable.

This is the first time the three of them have faced the death of their companions, and they may face it again in the future.

The world is cruel, and grief will transform people, make people grow, and make people stronger.
