At this time, it was already late at night, and there was still fog, so the cave on the ground was difficult to identify.
Father Tex stepped on it, so he tripped and fell to the ground. It was worth mentioning that this cave should be newly dug. There was a strange yellow-green mucus left on the cave wall. Father Tex's trouser leg was smeared with a lot of it. When he dipped his hand in it, he could pull out a sticky long silk which looked very disgusting.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan's face immediately changed, and he said loudly,
"Everyone, let's see if there are any similar caves nearby!"
After searching for a while, they found that these newly dug caves were concentrated near the light ball. Obviously, the guy who dug the cave was also aiming for the light ball.
After confirming this matter, Fang Linyan took a deep breath, then he whispered to Lieutenant Dan -Claca, "Captain Dan,
"Sir, I think we are in big trouble."
Lieutenant Dan -Claca was stunned and said,
"Huh?"
Fang Linyan said,
"Look, there are a total of seven similar holes near us, and these mud holes seem to have been drilled out temporarily. This means that the guy who did this has very developed digging organs. If he can dig holes so quickly, he can also punch holes in people's bodies quickly!"
"Moreover, it should stay underground most of the time, so our powerful long-range firepower suppression is almost useless to it. If I guess correctly, its vision is almost zero, but its senses and smell are extremely developed. It will patiently wait for the arrival of prey underground, and then attack when the enemy is close to the attack range! "
Hearing Fang Linyan's description, Lieutenant Dan -Claca's face suddenly became gloomy, then he went to the hole that appeared on the ground to take a closer look. He had to admit that what Fang Linyan said was true.
Now Lieutenant Dan -Claca was in a dilemma. His reason told him that retreating immediately was the best choice because continuing to move forward was likely to cause his subordinates to face a tragic massacre. However, the strict order of his superior made him unable to leave at all …
At this moment, a messenger ran over from the back, panting.
“SIR！ I'm very sorry to disturb your conversation, I have something very important to report. "
Lieutenant Dan -Claca nodded and said,
"En, I'm listening."
The messenger replied.
"Just now, a gentleman rushed over, claiming that he's an expert in dealing with such incidents, and he even had a document issued by the royal family … Of course, we didn't believe him at first, but it just so happened that the injured were sent down. They were tortured by the damned formic acid, so this gentleman began to treat them, and it seems that the effect is quite good."
"Then, when he found out about the condition of our brothers' injuries, his expression immediately changed. He asked me to come over and tell you not to move forward. Otherwise, you will suffer heavy losses. He will quickly finish treating the injured and rush over."
After hearing the messenger's words, Lieutenant Dan Claca nodded and said,
"Alright, let's retreat to the stone slab at the entrance first."
About five or six minutes later, a thin figure hurriedly ran over. He seemed a little clumsy as he walked, as if his legs were inconvenient. When he jogged, his posture was a little weird and a little twisted. He was wearing a thick khaki coat with a standing collar, and in his hand was a khaki leather suitcase that seemed to be half new.
Then he saw Lieutenant Dan -Claca. After slowing down, he breathed a sigh of relief,
"Thank God, you didn't enter rashly, because where there are Queensland flying ants, there must be chrysanthemum spiders …"
Lieutenant Dan -Claca stepped forward and saluted him,
"I'm Lieutenant Dan -Claca of the royal dragon cavalry, sir, thank you for your selfless help to my comrades."
This strange man seemed a little reserved. He lowered his head when he spoke,
"Sir, I'm Assistant Principal Robert who was appointed to deal with this incident. This is the identity certificate issued to me by the royal family."
Lieutenant Dan -Claca took the identity certificate and looked at it, then he said straightforwardly,
"Mr. Robbie, we're in big trouble right now …"
While Lieutenant Dan -Claca was explaining the situation to Mr. Robbie, Fang Linyan looked at this professional and found that he was probably in his twenties. He was very thin; his chestnut hair was messy; there was a palm-sized birthmark on the left side of his face; there were several stains on his gray-yellow coat; and there were a few holes on his gray scarf. He didn't care about his appearance.
It could even be felt from his behavior and speech that he was not a sociable person. Dullness and stuttering were very obvious characteristics. Even his eyes rarely looked at others; he seemed shy and flustered.
It was just that when these monsters appeared in the Westminster Temple were mentioned, Mr. Robert immediately became energetic as if he had changed into a different person. All kinds of very professional terms came out of his mouth.
When Fang Linyan mentioned his speculation, Robert immediately exclaimed in admiration, "You are right.
"Yes, Mr. Spanner, your reasoning is very correct! This kind of underground creature is called chrysanthemum spider. Under normal circumstances, it has as many as 120 to 140 legs. When it is still, its plate-shaped torso is like the stamen of a chrysanthemum, and a large number of long legs form the stamen of the chrysanthemum. "
"These guys are very good hunters, and they are very fond of preying on Queensland flying ants, the kind that can jump up and spit acid. As long as there are Queensland flying ants, there will be chrysanthemum spiders. If you continue to move forward, these ferocious guys are also very interested in human flesh and blood. "
At this time, Lieutenant Dan -Claca was already a little impatient,
"Gentlemen, now is not the time to discuss the habits of insects. I need to get a feasible plan within 3 minutes, that is, how to safely pass through the ambush area of these damn spiders."
Robert immediately said after listening,
"You'll get the plan soon, sir, but …"
Speaking of this, he hesitated,
"I need to be alone for a few minutes to do the preparation work."
Lieutenant Dan -Claca said seriously,
"A few minutes? Please give me specific data. Soldiers need accurate and controllable values. "
Robert hurriedly said,
"5 minutes, yes, 5 minutes is enough, sir!"
Lieutenant Dan -Claca said,
"I'll give you 8 minutes! I'll wait for your good news. "
Robert nodded, walked directly into the front door, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
At this time, the rest of the people continued to wait at the gate, but Fang Linyan was obviously not a person who followed the rules. He controlled the drone to follow Robert from afar under the cover of darkness.
Under the illumination of the torches on the walls of the monastery, they could vaguely see Robbie squatting down. His left hand took out a small wooden stick that looked like a baton. His right hand slowly opened the old leather case that was lying flat on the ground. Then, he muttered an incantation and pointed the stick in his left hand at the case.
Suddenly, the small wooden stick in Robert's left hand emitted a dazzling light, then a strange hoof stretched out from the old leather case.
The hoof was at least as thick as a bowl, and there were layers of thick scales on it. Under the light, it looked very hard as if it was made of brass.
Immediately afterward, a monster with brass scales drilled out of the old leather case. At first, it looked like a big wild boar weighing thousands of pounds, but its head looked like an elephant. It had a long nose and 2 tusks. Its tail was more like a horse's, sweeping around everywhere.
Looking at the size of this monster, it was at least 10 times the size of this leather case, but it just drilled out of the old leather case so easily. It was really incredible.
Robert seemed quite familiar with this monster. He kept making "Lulu" sounds. This monster, Lulu, seemed to be very affectionate. It kept walking around the thin young man happily. It seemed to be very excited.
More importantly, it kept making "puchi puchi" sounds while wagging its tail. It sounded very funny.
Robert comforted the Purrling for a while. Then, he sprinkled some powder from his left hand onto the ground. When the powder landed on the ground, it turned into dots of light. The Purrling's eyes lit up. Then it rushed forward and swallowed the powder. By the time it was done, the Purrling had become very docile. Then it followed Robert and continued forward.
After walking for about 40 to 50 meters, they arrived at the area where the Chrysanthemum Spiders lived. When the Lulu found the cave that the Chrysanthemum Spiders had drilled out of, it immediately let out an excited hum and farted towards the cave!
Although the Lulu's fart didn't seem to have any smell, in fact, it was because humans didn't have the specialized olfactory cells. It was the same reason that the human ear could only detect frequencies in the range of 20 Hz to 20000 Hz.
When the Chrysanthemum Spiders in the cave smelled the Lulu's fart, they immediately jumped out in pain. Then, the Lulu's long nose smacked them to the ground. The Chrysanthemum Spiders' bodies trembled and convulsed. Green liquid flowed out of their ruptured abdomens. In the end, they were sucked into the Lulu's mouth and eaten.
After the Lulu caught two Chrysanthemum Spiders, it regrettably found that there were no more suicidal Chrysanthemum Spiders. What a joke. These Chrysanthemum Spiders were waiting to be hunted, not delivered to the Lulu's door. Two of their relatives had already been killed. Why would the rest of them stay here instead of running away?
