Lan Mu flew to the sky above the forest. The miasma below had spread to a distance of two kilometers, but it had already begun to dissipate.
Naturally, he could see how many poisonous insects were in the miasma.
It was mainly centipedes! Centipedes that were twenty centimeters long were crawling all over the trees and the ground. There were also a dozen especially large ones that were half a meter long. Their limbs were fat, their chelicerae were hard and glossy, and their bodies were covered with a black carapace with some scarlet.
In addition, there was also a black smoke-like mosquito swarm wreaking havoc in the miasma. If one was bitten, they would definitely be infected with extremely serious germs.
Dang Weiguo and his group set fire everywhere. Wherever they ran, they burned, causing chaos in the forest.
The poisonous insects were burned by the smoke and fire, so they didn't have time to attack people.
"Don't stop! The miasma is about to dissipate! "
"Hiss … Sss sss sss …"
"Not good! This is the sound of a snake. "
In front of them, there was the sound of a snake moving quickly. From the sound of it, it seemed that there was more than one snake.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, the person in front screamed. It seemed that he was attacked.
"What happened!" Dang Weiguo shouted. Although the miasma around them was somewhat diluted, their vision was still very poor.
"White-headed centipede!"
That person shouted, followed by a series of gasps.
"He was bitten! White-headed centipede's venom is very strong, those who are bitten can't be saved! "Professor Shen said.
The person who was bitten was currently paralyzed on the ground. One hand was tightly holding a headless snake, and the other hand was holding a military knife that was dripping with blood.
That snake was already a corpse. A section of the white snake's head was still bitten on his leg. Its head was still twisting and bouncing.
That person actually grabbed it the moment he was bitten, pulled out his knife, and swung it. A life for a life.
Being bitten by the snake's venom meant certain death. He was paralyzed on the ground, and died in just three breaths.
Now, there was a White-headed Centipede blocking the way in front of them, and poisonous insects chasing after them from behind. They were in a tight encirclement.
"There are two more!" A combat personnel shouted, but the next moment, there was no more sound.
When he saw the White-headed Centipede, it meant that he had been bitten. In the heavy miasma, one could only see it when the opponent attacked.
In this kind of environment, guns were useless. It was even better to fight with a military knife.
"Puchi!"
Dang Weiguo's military knife quickly attacked, stabbing the White-headed Centipede the moment it appeared in his field of vision, directly nailing it to the ground.
The others might be able to perish together with the White-Headed Centipede, but Dang Weiguo was even better than them. His combat experience was exceptionally rich.
However, with this delay, the giant centipedes had already caught up. One by one, the centipedes climbed up their legs and covered their entire bodies.
"Da da da!"
Finally, one of the combatants couldn't take it anymore and fired at the ground.
"Stop!" Dang Weiguo roared.
The man fired. Although the others could hear the sound, they couldn't see where the bullet was aimed at. Because of this, the others stopped in their tracks and did not dare to move. Otherwise, it would be too unlucky to bump into the muzzle of the gun.
"Ah! Ah! "The gunshots soon stopped and they began to struggle frantically.
The giant centipedes bit through the protective suit and crawled in one by one. No matter how the man swung and slapped, he couldn't stop the centipedes' numerous limbs from crawling on his body.
The centipedes secreted venom from their venom glands. More than ten of them bit a man at the same time. For a moment, an astonishing amount of venom flowed through his body.
"Ugh …" The man stiffened and fell to the ground. Not long after, he died.
Under the attack of the centipedes and the poisonous snakes, the combatants died one by one. The toxicity of the two was astonishing. No matter which one was hit, the result would be death.
Unfortunately, there was a poisonous miasma that blocked their vision. Without them knowing, the poisonous insects would crawl on their bodies. Soon, the protective suit became full of holes, and many highly toxic creatures crawled in.
No matter how rich a human's combat experience was, when faced with a large number of poisonous insects, they could only admit defeat.
The poisonous miasma made them more active, and they were even immune to Professor Shen's potion.
"Dang Weiguo! If this goes on, we're all going to die! "
Dang Weiguo was even more furious. "You've been researching for so many years. Don't you know how to prepare electric shock protective suits for everyone?"
Professor Shen said, "It's useless! The capacitance of those protective suits is limited. The poisonous insects will be electrocuted in batches, and some of them will attract other poisonous insects to bite you. In the end, it will attract even more poisonous insects. There are also some poisonous insects that just touch you, and their bodies will release corrosive substances that will destroy the protective suit. "
"So, the direction of my research is to make them stay away from humans, and not to study how humans can kill them."
"Stupid!"
Dang Weiguo saw that his team members had suffered heavy casualties. At this moment, his vision gradually opened, and the miasma was finally dissipating.
He took out the last incendiary bomb and threw it at his feet.
"Ignore the insects! Run this way! "
As the thick fog became thinner, he could finally see where the miasma was thicker and where the miasma was thinner.
The side where the miasma was thinner was naturally the place that was far away from the center of the miasma!
The flames burst out and engulfed all the poisonous insects on the ground. At the same time, it also wrapped around the people. Everyone's body was burning, and they became 'flaming men'.
Those who had already been poisoned were naturally hopeless. Those who were able to escape with Dang Weiguo, including Professor Shen, were naturally no more than five people.
Their clothes were burning, but they could only keep running because there was still a terrifying buzzing sound behind them.
The miasma was getting thinner and thinner. They were in a race against time. They only needed to run out of the miasma's range before the fire reached their eyebrows.
However, just as their vision became clearer and they were about to run out of the miasma's range, Dang Weiguo suddenly collapsed and lay on the ground, motionless.
"Team Leader!"
"Dang Weiguo!"
The other five people immediately stopped. Only then did they realize that Dang Weiguo's protective suit had been torn open at some point.
His face was black, pustules were bulging on his body, and many black spots were faintly visible under his skin.
"Oh no! He's been poisoned by the miasma. "Professor Shen said dejectedly.
Dang Weiguo was the core of the team. At this moment, when he collapsed, everyone's minds were in chaos.
"Hiss …"
The White-Headed Venomous Centipedes surged forward, and a cloud of black smoke formed by mosquitoes flew over in the air.
Everyone carried Dang Weiguo on their backs and shot at the venomous creatures. However, there were too few venomous creatures that could die under the bullets.
Just as the venomous creatures were getting closer, a high-pitched cry came from the sky.
"Bi! Bi! Bi! Fang! "
It was just a cry, but the venomous creatures stopped in their tracks, not daring to move forward.
"It's Bi Fang!"
Professor Shen looked up and saw a divine bird flying over. Its single leg was holding a small beast.
The divine bird circled above everyone's heads, and the flames on their bodies that had been infected by the incendiary bombs obediently floated into their mouths.
Lan Mu flew all the way here and put out the fire along the way. The flames in the forest that had just burned were all devoured by him.
This group of people's incendiary bombs could burn for seven to eight minutes even on a concrete floor, let alone in this dense forest.
If they were allowed to continue burning like this, who knew how big of a fire it would eventually cause?
Three Tails kept pleading with Lan Mu, hoping that he could save this ancient forest as much as possible.
"Is Shennongjia the guardian of ancient creatures?"
"Bi Fang! Save everyone! "Three Tails closed his eyes and nodded cutely.
"But I will eventually leave this place … Three Tails … I can only do my best …"
As they were talking, a large White-Headed Centipede with a forked tail suddenly approached him. This White-Headed Centipede was ten meters long and was the largest among the snakes!
"Hmm?"
Lan Mu's crane head froze. He opened his mouth and spat out the flames that he had just eaten onto the White-Headed Centipede's body.
The White-Headed Centipede's skin was torn open by the flames, and it twisted on the ground.
After putting out a little of the flames with great difficulty, Lan Mu continued to spray until it was burnt to a crisp.
He did not retract the flames that he had spat out. It blocked the area, causing many venomous creatures to become restless and not dare to take half a step forward.
No matter how powerful a fire set by a human was, it could not scare away venomous creatures. However, as a divine bird, Bi Fang was a great deterrent to insects.
Professor Shen reacted quickly. He carried Dang Weiguo on his back and said anxiously.
"Bi Fang is here to help us! Dang Weiguo is dying, we have to send him to the camp as soon as possible! "
The four combatants were also anxious for the safety of their leader, but just as they were about to leave, their limbs went weak and they staggered two steps.
It turned out that their protective suits were also leaked. They did not rush out of the miasma area in time and were now all poisoned.
Lan Mu looked carefully and knew that they were all poisoned. He thought to himself, "By the time you run to the so-called camp, you will already be dead."
Therefore, he flew in front of them and blocked their way.
"Crack! Crack! Crack! "
Apart from Professor Shen, the other four of the five people pointed their guns at Lan Mu, panting heavily and looking at him warily.
This made Lan Mu speechless. "I didn't want to do anything, do they have to be so nervous?
Can't humans' rejection of foreign species be solved in other ways? "
After thinking about it, Lan Mu connected his spiritual power to the five people's minds.
"Humans …"
"As the guardian of this ancient forest, I want to talk to you …"
