human journey

Chapter 104 Swamp Monster
This time Lu Yu was prepared, and he didn't dodge any more. He calculated the shadow's trajectory, and directly slashed it sideways, knocking him into the air.

He deduced from the feeling in his hand that the object he shot was very hard, no less than his weapon.The appearance of this black shadow can also be seen clearly, it is a thick and thin arm, seventy to eighty centimeters long, black spikes.

"It's probably a ferocious beast that can attack from a distance. I have to rush to it, otherwise I'll become a target!"

Lu Yu thought to himself, without stopping for a moment, his body swayed from side to side and rushed forward.

When he was about to break out of the canopy, another spike came. Although it was fast, only a sneak attack could hurt Lu Yu.

Under his full concentration, the trajectory of the attack was clearly visible, and he dodged it by turning sideways at random. At this time, Lu Yu had already seen the instigator of the attack.

It was lying on a branch of a big tree not far away, about the same height as Lu Yu's. It was a scorpion-like creature, but it was much bigger, as big as a buffalo without its tail.Its appearance is similar to the bark of a tree, and you can't find it unless you look carefully.

The two large pliers are strong and strong, and there is no doubt that they can pinch someone at the waist.There are several pairs of eyes on the head, shining with indifferent and bloodthirsty light.There are more than a dozen evenly distributed spikes on the back, which looks very similar to the thing that attacked him just now.And at the end of its tail, which is thicker than ordinary people's thighs, is a large ball with a small hole in the middle.

Just when Lu Yu wondered how it fired the spikes on its back, the beast began to perform.I saw that it directly used the small hole of the ball of its tail to cover a certain spike. When the ball was pulled out, a spike was installed, and only a small section was exposed. The spikes on its back turned out to be two Pointy.

At this time, many small holes suddenly opened on its tail, and then it inhaled so hard that the surrounding leaves were sucked in.The ball at the tail expanded and doubled in size, becoming as big as a water tank.

There was a "bang", as if the gas valve switch was turned on, and the spike was pushed out by the high-pressure gas at an extremely fast speed, and the target of the attack was Lu Yu.

"Damn it, it's amazing, and there is such an operation!"

Lu Yu couldn't help sighing in his heart.

He thought about the prototype of this beast. The creature was only half the size of it. There were no spikes on its back, and there were thorns at the end of its tail, but it couldn't shoot.It must have been transformed by the transformation fluid, otherwise it would not have undergone such a big change.

Faced with this attack, Lu Yu did not block or dodge, but reached out to catch the spike. The strong kinetic energy pulled Lu Yu's hand back. He switched his feet, turned his body, and pulled Lu Yu's hand back. The spike circled around and was thrown back in the opposite direction.

Although this scorpion-shaped ferocious beast had fast long-range attacks, its movement speed was not very good. It was unable to dodge the spikes shot back. It was shot from head to butt, and it died immediately, leaving only a weak body. Shaking, and colorful fluids oozing from the wound.

With its strange way, returning to its strange body, it can be regarded as avenging the monkey-shaped small animal, let it taste the taste of being shot through.

Seeing that the attack was successful, Lu Yu observed the surrounding environment for a while, and after confirming that there was no danger, he jumped over directly.

He was very interested in the sharp thorns of this beast. He pulled out more than a dozen of them one by one, then cut off a section of tree branch, made it into a quiver to place the thorns, twisted the bark into a rope, and put the thorns on the back of the quiver. behind.The spikes can be used for throwing in the future. It has moderate weight, good hardness and toughness, and is a good long-range attack weapon.

Then, he jumped to the ground and buried the body of the small monkey-shaped animal in the soil, returning it to the earth.He touched his injured ear and found that it had healed on its own, so he packed up and continued on his way.

Until the evening, Lu Yu didn't encounter any danger. At this time, he had walked one-third of the distance, entered the depths of the forest, and various natural dangers began to appear.

At this time, what stood in front of him was a large swamp, more than ten kilometers deep, spanning half of the forest.There are quagmire areas everywhere, as long as ordinary people or animals get stuck, they can't break free at all, they will just sink deeper and deeper, and eventually suffocate to death.

Of course, this was ineffective against Lu Yu. With his strong leg strength, he could easily walk on water, let alone mud that was much denser than water.

The real danger comes from the predators in the mud. They are called "long worms" in the notes. They are a dozen meters long, meters in diameter, gray-white worm-like creatures.

They lurk underground for a long time, waiting for the unlucky ones passing by the swamp, or actively attacking animals drinking water at the edge of the swamp.There are a large number of them, often more than a dozen of them attack and grab food together, which is extremely dangerous.

The author of the note is also powerful, not afraid of the mud, and can run directly there, but he couldn't resist the attack of the long worm, and was almost eaten.

After escaping from the swamp and returning to the forest, he thought of a good idea, which was to catch a big bird, control it, and let it fly across the swamp.

There are many large birds in the forest. It is not difficult to find one as a mount, but it takes time. After all, the wild animals are difficult to tame. It took the author of the note half a month to succeed.

Lu Yu didn't have time to wait, the fierce beast would attack the tribe again at any time, so he decided to rush over directly, and if the worm dared to stop him, he would let him have a taste of the clone.

At this time, there were three moons hanging in the cloudless sky. They were all close to full moons and very bright, allowing Lu Yu, who had great eyesight, to see things at night as if they were in daylight.

Holding the big sword, he ran wildly all the way, reaching a speed of 300 meters per second, almost breaking the sound barrier physically.To achieve such a speed, not only strong strength is required, but also super-strong body coordination, in order to mobilize the strength of the whole body, transmit it to the feet, and obtain a huge reaction force, so that the body can continue to accelerate until it reaches the wind pressure. Balanced state.

The greater the speed, the greater the air resistance it bears. If there is telekinetic power, the air in front of it can be separated, and supersonic speed can be easily achieved.

At Lu Yu's current speed, he could run out of the swamp and reach the forest on the opposite side in about one minute.This high speed, even for him, can only be maintained for a while, otherwise the high temperature brought by strenuous exercise will burn him, and his powerful self-healing ability will not recover in time.

Things often don't go so smoothly. When Lu Yu ran halfway, a huge gray-white figure jumped out of the mud in front of him, with a huge mouth the size of a house, and bit him.

This big mouth is quite strange. It looks like a five-pointed starfish on the earth. The side facing Lu Yu is full of fangs.In the middle of the big mouth is a deep hole that can fit a cow, which is its esophagus. There are spiral-shaped hooked teeth that are constantly rotating, just like a meat grinder. It will make people shudder at the first sight. Normally One must have nightmares.

Fortunately, Lu Yu was not an ordinary person. He directly kicked his foot hard and raised his foot falsely, so he changed his direction and avoided the bite.A common problem with giant creatures, affected by their weight, their movement and attack speeds are not too fast.

"This long worm is too big, with a diameter of four to five meters. It is estimated that its original length is at least more than 50 meters. It must have been modified."

Lu Yu couldn't help but complain in his heart.

With a loud "pop", the five corners of the big mouth snapped together, biting the air, and the closed mouth became cone-shaped, and the gray-white skin was full of streamlined patterns, which seemed to be for the convenience of burrowing into the ground. .

The vicious beast missed a hit and immediately burrowed into the mud. Its body was still spinning, and it burrowed very quickly.

It has no eyes, and relies on the heat-sensing organs under the skin of its cone-shaped head to detect the external environment. It likes to drill out of the mud and attack targets on the ground. This is the first time it has seen a tribal person, and the emotion of killing immediately wrapped it up. Its simple thinking makes it keep chasing and killing Lu Yu, even if it rushes out of the swamp.

After Lu Yu saw the worm-like beast returning to the ground, he did not stop and continued to run forward while being wary of changes on the ground.

Not long after, while running, he felt the ground under his feet start to bulge slightly, and immediately knew that the beast was coming again. He jumped up, turned around and held the big sword in both hands, ready to go.

Sure enough, the beast's cone-shaped head rushed out of the mud and opened it at the same time, and the pentagonal mouth appeared in front of Lu Yu again.

This time it didn't eat air, but felt the sharpness of the big sword. Lu Yu cut off a corner of its mouth. Fortunately, the big sword was long enough, otherwise it wouldn't be able to cut through the meter-thick mouth.
