"Gudong … Gudong … Gudong …"
Countless bubbles rose from the bottom of the lake like boiling water.
Insects had a natural aversion to water. This feeling came from their body's instinct. It was something that Chu Yunsheng couldn't control. It was just like how humans couldn't adapt to high temperature or cold.
The worm was still tightly attached to Old Gold's carapace. After Old Gold sank for a distance, perhaps because of its huge size, its buoyancy was better than that of other worms. It floated up first, followed by Old Purple. Little Green flapped its wings to increase its buoyancy more or less.
Chu Yunsheng, Dumb Insect, and Little Red were still sinking. Their bodies were small, but they were very dense.
Especially Chu Yunsheng. His insect body was the smallest, but it didn't evolve to the second form. His weight was almost the same as Dumb Insect's second form.
He was the first one to sink to the bottom of the lake.
Mice were indeed animals. Even if they were in deep water, it was not a problem for them. They were very capable of swimming up to the surface of the lake.
It was a sharp contrast to Chu Yunsheng's erratic fall.
Soon, Chu Yunsheng found that other than some rocks that were falling like him, there were no other living things around him.
Even Dumb Insect and Little Red were floating up to the surface of the lake.
He was very upset and angry. Why didn't Old Golden come down to save him? He was their deputy leader, how could they just watch him sink to the bottom of the lake?
In fact, he was wrong again. He started to think about the problem of "falling into the water" again.
Insects didn't have the concept of drowning in their minds. So when Chu Yunsheng was complaining, the battle between the mice and the insects was still going on.
According to their understanding, Chu Yunsheng was in the safest place right now.
Falling, still falling.
'Why is there no bottom?'
Just when he was thinking about how to get out of the lake, he suddenly felt some waves coming from the quiet lake. Chu Yunsheng's insect eyes were limited in the water. He could barely see the world within 30 meters. No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't see anything.
About ten seconds later, the waves in the water became more and more intense. Suddenly, in his red vision, he saw many strange fish with huge heads. They had sharp teeth, big eyes, and ugly faces. Their bodies were almost half the size of a human, and they looked like fossils.
What was even more terrifying was that it was not just a few of them, but a group of them.
Chu Yunsheng was shocked, but there was nothing he could do. On land, he was a "tough insect", but in the water, he was a "poor insect". He didn't even have a way to escape. Insects hated water so much, how could they swim?
In just a few seconds, Chu Yunsheng, who was "waiting for death", was submerged by them. The huge school of strange fish made a beautiful turn in the water, wrapped around Chu Yunsheng, and swam towards the edge of the giant lake.
Although these fishes did not have any water elemental energy, their sharp teeth were not inferior to insects. Coupled with their large number, Chu Yunsheng was soon covered with wounds.
But Chu Yunsheng was still calm at this time. His legs and claws were not just for show.
As long as it was caught by his pincers, the stone-like fish would not be able to escape the fate of being split into two.
He completely gave up on his own defense and focused all his energy on killing the fish. Actually, there wasn't much to defend against. His fire energy was suppressed, so he could only rely on his carapace to resist.
As long as he was fast enough, he believed that he would be able to kill all of them before the fish bit him.
The smell of blood quickly spread in the lake. The strange fish were too agile in the water. Every time he killed one, it would consume a lot of his energy.
Chu Yunsheng endured the pain all over his body and continued to kill. Suddenly, the strange fish around him loosened up, and the strange fish quickly left.
No, they were running away!
Chu Yunsheng was not arrogant enough to think that his killing scared them away. When the strange fish retreated, he immediately continued to sink. When he looked up, a black shadow that was as big as three golden-shelled insects was swimming past him. No matter how big or small the strange fish were, they were all swallowed by it.
At this moment, he wanted to sink faster than ever …
The water pressure on his body was getting heavier and heavier. Not to mention a human, even a normal red-shelled insect would have been crushed into pieces.
Chu Yunsheng didn't know why he couldn't evolve to the second form, but after the fight and the water pressure, he found out that his body must have been greatly condensed, which caused his body to become denser, heavier, and more resistant to pressure.
No wonder the "rectum" Brother Worm, who knew how to protect himself the most, was able to safely hide under his body after being attacked by the group of rats. It instinctively knew the strength and characteristics of the seven insects. It probably knew that the rats would not be able to bite through Chu Yunsheng's carapace.
Also, the moment before it fell into the water, it "changed its mind" and was the first one to stick to Old Jin.
Chu Yunsheng always thought that he was the smartest among the seven insects. But now that he thought about it, he realized that he was not even as smart as a "rectum" worm.
'Has he fallen for four hundred meters? Or five hundred meters?' Without any reference, Chu Yunsheng didn't know. Maybe it was more than one kilometer. Because he felt that he couldn't hold on any longer. His "intestines" were about to be squeezed out by the pressure. Of course, that was if the insects had intestines.
His fire elemental energy was already burning, resisting the pressure that was getting stronger and stronger.
Just a moment ago, Chu Yunsheng was still worried that he would be crushed to death by the collapsing soil layer. But now, he had to face the danger of being crushed into a pile of minced meat at any time.
Finally, a huge skeleton that stretched for dozens of meters appeared under him. With his current eyesight, he could only see less than sixty meters, but he couldn't see the end of this skeleton that was covered with algae.
"Boom …"
A pile of green algae dust was stirred up.
Finally, he fell to the bottom of the lake!
Chu Yunsheng was also almost dead. He tried to crawl a few steps forward. This place was full of danger, he needed to find a place to hide first, and then slowly think of a way to escape.
He crawled slowly along the ridge of this huge skeleton. From time to time, there were all kinds of strange creatures swimming over his head. He had to pretend to be dead and bury himself at the bottom of the lake.
After crawling for a long time, a ferocious skull appeared in front of him. Ignoring the pain and the huge water pressure, Chu Yunsheng hurriedly crawled into the skull of the skeleton. Finally, he found a temporary shelter.
How to leave this place was the problem that he needed to consider immediately.
He couldn't stay under the water for too long. Although insects didn't need to breathe, without the supply of fire elemental energy, the storage in his body would soon be depleted.
A red-shelled insect without fire elemental energy was like a crab that had its claws sawed off.
Not to mention that he was now at the bottom of a completely unfamiliar underground lake, and there were countless creatures around him that could kill him.
'What should I do?'
Chu Yunsheng leaned his back against the skull, looking at the shallow teeth marks on the shell, he didn't know what to do.
If he wanted to leave the bottom of the lake, he needed to be able to swim like a fish.
But he was an insect, and an insect with an extremely high density, how could he swim in the water?
'There must be a way, but I haven't found it yet!'
Chu Yunsheng secretly encouraged himself. He couldn't wait to die here.
After resting for a while and adapting to the water pressure, he quickly made a decision: carefully search the bottom of the lake, he must find a way to leave this place as soon as possible.
