Fleas were a type of ectoparasites, there were about 2500 species known in the world. The adult was about 3mm long and they sucked blood.
"Pa!" The Zoog slapped his stomach heavily, killing a flea that was about to stab its spikes into his skin but another flea appeared. The Zoog's claws slapped the flea and as he did so, he screamed, "Help me! Help me, I'm just passing by! "
The walls on both sides of the corridor and the ceiling were less than 1 metre away, sandwiching him and the group in the middle.
Endless worms and parasites were like a sea of filth, they were about to drown them.
"Ah …" Lou Xiaoning let out a muffled cry. Her face was already surrounded by flies and other flying insects. She couldn't use gunfire to deal with them, nor could she use spells to deal with them.
Peacock, Malachite and the rest felt their bodies itch like every inch of their skin was covered by these worms.
Ma Feng, who was being carried away by Jin Zhuzi, had the bandages on his abdomen stained red with blood. The smell of blood attracted the bugs even more, and the flies couldn't be chased away no matter how hard they tried. The bandages instantly turned black, filled with bugs.
Ma Feng whimpered in pain. The worms tried to crawl through the bandages into his abdomen to chew on his intestines and turn him into more worms …
"Ancient Seal!" Gu Jun roared angrily. Before this, he did not use spells and Ancient Seal because he did not want to provoke this House of Worm but now it was their turn to die. "Let's try using the Ancient Seal!"
His right hand drew out an Ancient Seal in the air and slammed it at the wall of corpses on his right. Instantly there was a strange wail.
The sound came from nowhere, it sounded like it came from the corpses but at the same time, it sounded like it was echoing throughout the manor.
The worms dropped to the ground like they were dried out. The Ancient Seal was useful!
Lou Xiaoning, Peacock, and the rest immediately activated their Ancient Seals. Other than Gold, the 6 of them split into 3 groups. Each group was responsible for 2 walls and the ceiling. As they drew the Ancient Seal, they continued down the dark corridor.
Although the two walls and the ceiling could not be pushed any closer, and there were countless dead and injured worms, their spirit power was also rapidly depleted. This was just a bitter struggle. Fortunately, the worm corridor did not explode with more power because of this.
Is that a glimmer in front?
"Hold on, the exit is right in front!" Gu Jun screamed. The Zoog leaped from his shoulder impatiently and ran forward. In less than 10 seconds, the Zoog's shrill voice came, "This is a hall, come quickly, this is a hall, there are no bugs!"
They were instantly energized. They fired out a few more Ancient Seals. When their mental power was almost depleted, they charged into the shimmering light.
Everyone fell to the ground with a thump, and the sound of deep breathing could be heard …
Behind them, the corridor filled with countless corpses and worms closed up with a loud rumble. There were no longer any gaps or traces left.
The flies and worms that crawled on their bodies and clothes suddenly died like they had lost their souls.
"So close, so close …" The Zoog collapsed to the purple carpet next to them.
'What is this place? ' Gu Jun slowly stood up. He looked around but his heart did not relax …
This was a pentagonal hall. There was a large fireplace at each of the 5 corners. They were all empty. In the middle of the hall was a large pentagonal wooden table. The table was filled with plates of food, there were fresh fruits, fragrant roasted meat, clear wine …
The table was covered with a purple tablecloth and the floor was covered with a purple carpet. There were also some purple draperies hanging on the walls.
Other than that, this was a completely hidden room. There were no doors or corridors, but the doors and corridors could appear anywhere on the walls.
'Does the House of Worm have its own consciousness? Or was that just a trap? '
Was it their own doing or someone else's scheme that allowed them to reach this hall?
Before getting to the bottom of these questions, Gu Jun would not touch anything in this room.
After looking around, he first went to check on Feng Wei's injuries. After such a violent jolt, Feng Wei's internal organs were inevitably ruptured more severely. Just by looking at the blood dripping from the gauze, he could tell without removing the gauze.
A sense of helplessness washed over Gu Jun. He wanted to save Ma Feng but he knew he would not be able to do so this time.
With this level of blood loss and no blood transfusion, how much longer could Ma Feng last …
Furthermore, they did not have any protective gear. After going through such a corridor of worms, who knew what kind of parasites or bacteria they carried with them? He did not dare to return to Earth like he did, he might bring back something much scarier than the new strain of bacteria.
Therefore, rationality told him that even if he was going to reap the fruits of his labor here, he should stay at Dreamlands for a while to ensure he was clean before he found a way back.
"Ah Jun …" Lou Xiaoning was not an idiot. Looking at the dying Ma Feng, she said, "How about I shoot him dead?"
The Special Mobile Force had a rule, it was the duty of a teammate to help when it was time to end a teammate's suffering.
"No, there is still hope." Gu Jun said hoarsely, "There is hope as long as he is alive. Let's take a look around. "
The few of them started to inspect their surroundings carefully. They used the long blades to probe the five fireplaces but found nothing. They even lifted the carpet and the walls but found nothing.
In the end, they gathered around the large table in the middle. Their eyes fell on the fragrant food.
The food was the most obvious thing in the hall, it was like they were being ordered to eat.
"I do not dare to eat this." The Zoog warned, "These things might smell good, they might taste good but in reality, they are just piles of cat poop."
At that moment, Gu Jun missed Wu Shiyu. If Dirty-minded Yu was here, she would know whether the food was salty, sweet, fragrant or stinky …
"Isn't that a chicken drumstick?" He turned to the Zoog and was reminded of the lab rats he had fed the drug to.
"Mr. Nightmare Man … I, I …" The Zoog panicked, "I refuse. Please don't misunderstand, there is no chicken drumstick in the Zoog's cookbook. "
"Then never mind." Gu Jun still could not bring himself to do such a thing. As he expected, once the lab rats spoke, it became harder for him to do it.
"Leader …" Peacock's face darkened as she made a decision. "I'll do it." Malachite and Lou Xiaoning joined the fray.
Gu Jun ignored them. He took a step forward to grab the edge of the table and flipped it over. "We all choose not to eat it!"
Whether they ate it or not, there could be good and bad results, so why take the risk?
Instantly, all the food and plates fell to the floor. The Zoog and Peacock were dumbfounded.
