Interstellar: The Devil Is Down - Chapter 45

The gravel, sand, and the huge cracktooth ant on the top of his head were pressed down like a shield from the sky. At that moment, Pei Yi broke free from Xuan Xiao’s arms and tried to use light work to bring Xuan Xiao into the gap.

However, when his toes stepped on a cracktooth ant and pulled Xuan Xiao, he found that Xuan Xiao’s body seemed to be caught by something, and a heavy force pulled them both to fall.

The terrain under the mine is not flat, and I don’t know how many meters it has been dug down. The further down, the stranger the direction.

Several people were forced to separate on the way to fall, and the group of splittooth ants fell everywhere, but this way they were no longer a whole group, and it was much easier to kill them.

I don’t know how long it took, Pei Yi and Xuan Xiao finally found a foothold somewhere in the mine.

The ground was dark, and the two ants that fell beside him were killed casually. Pei Yi pressed the personal terminal and tried to contact other people.

There is no response from the personal terminal.

He grabbed Xuan Xiao’s wrist and fiddled with the opponent’s terminal a few times, but there was no response either.

Pei Yi frowned. With the powerful functions of the personal terminal, it is impossible that there is no signal deep underground, and Jingwen Mine does not have the special energy to shield the signal.

I don’t know what happened to the others.

“There is light over there,” Xuan Xiao said.

Pei Yi looked in the direction he pointed, and there was a faint blue light in the depths of the mine.

“Go over there.” Pei Yi said, no matter what, let’s find the exit first.

Xuan Xiao picked him up, there was no road at all under his feet, Xuan Xiao used light skills and stepped on the gravel fairly smoothly.

The luminous place in front of them got closer and closer, and after they turned a hole, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Pei squinted his eyes with the piercing light, and opened his eyes after a while, and the scenery into the eyes is magnificent.

The space here is as large as a giant square in the human world. There are blue mottled light patterns on the top of the dome. They are connected to each other like vines growing along the top, reflecting the entire space into a faint blue color. There are colorful dots of light that are as small as broken diamonds, constantly flickering.

Such a strange scene will never be formed naturally.

Could this be… the nest of the clefttooth ant?

Just as Pei Yi was guessing, Xuan Xiao suddenly said, “…There is something delicious!”

Xuan Xiao’s eyes stared at the floor of this hall. A little farther away, densely packed elliptical objects were neatly placed, with slippery mucus on their surfaces, and faint colorful colors reflected on them.

Pei’s pupils shrunk slightly, that is… the egg of the schizotooth ant!

Here, it turned out to be the place where the clefttooth ants put their offspring!

For Xuan Xiao, these are all delicious. At the beginning, he didn’t eat less of the eggs of Warcraft, and they tasted more delicious when they were cooked.

This should be the most important place for the schizotooth ants. This square-like childcare place is probably located in the deepest part of their nests, and it will also be the place with the strictest external defenses.

Cracktooth ants would never have imagined that there would be humans appearing here in this way.

Xuan Xiao licked her lips, salivating in her eyes, and whispered, “Master…I want to eat this.”

Pei used internal force to attach to both ears. Maybe the area here is too big. He didn’t perceive the existence of cracktooth ants around, which means that they are still very safe for the time being.

The backpacks they carry with them have ignition tools, and there are also unknown dry plants on the ground under the ant eggs to fix them.

Pei Yi decided to indulge Xuan Xiao once, and then went to look for an exit.

During the process of roasting ant eggs, Xuan Xiao sat cross-legged next to him, staring at the fire on the ground, his eyes were shiny, only half-cooked, he couldn’t wait to just stuff it into his mouth.

“Hot—” Pei Yi frowned slightly, before he could stop him, there was a trace of distress in his eyes.

“Doesn’t it hurt?” Pei Yi rubbed his head helplessly.

“It doesn’t hurt.” Xuan Xiao shook his head.

This temperature is nothing to him.

“Don’t worry, eat slowly.” Pei Yi told him.

The remaining eggs in the fire began to emit bursts of fragrance. They were as big as a basketball, and they could only be baked three or two at a time, which was definitely not enough for Xuan Xiao.

This scent made Pei Yi feel hungry too, and he grilled Xuan Xiao more than ten, and he only ate one of it himself. The meat was really tender.

Pei Yi stretched out his hand and touched Xuan Xiao’s belly, his strong abdominal muscles felt hard, “Are you full?”

“Yeah.” Xuan Xiao nodded and grabbed Pei Yi’s hand. With the other hand, he lifted the hem of his combat uniform, put Pei Yi’s hand in and pressed it to his stomach, squinting his eyes with comfort.

In this way, he looks a little lazy, like a lion king dozing off, dangerous and beautiful.

Pei Yi kneaded his stomach a few times, although he was reluctant to remove his hand, but they were still in the enemy’s hinterland after all, and they had to be more vigilant.

He just retracted his hand and keenly noticed a strange wave in the air.

Xuan Xiao stood up abruptly with a look of alert.

Splittooth found them!

Xuan Xiao hugged Pei Yi horizontally and quickly ran to the opposite direction of the sound.

Before running far, the path was blocked by the cracktooth ants coming from that direction!

The “click, click” sound became denser, and they were soon surrounded.

Fortunately, perhaps the opening into the hatching area is not too big. It is impossible for the cracktooth ants to come in in large numbers. Adding up, there are only ten or twenty.

But their body size is larger than what Pei Yi and the others have encountered before. Obviously, this is not the lowest-class worker ant, but the second-class one.

These big guys are even more difficult to deal with. Their status in the ant colony is equivalent to that of human logistics personnel, who are responsible for supervising worker ants and taking care of all kinds of ores.

They screamed sharply and rushed over with their forelimbs!

Pei Yi got down from Xuan Xiao’s arms and went straight forward to fight, Xuan Xiao rushed over without falling behind.

Soon there were a few fragments of the Schizotooth ant on the ground. Pei looked for an opportunity, and while coping with the unwillingness to chase her, she swept towards the entrance of the hole.

“Here!” He shouted at Xuan Xiao in the confusion.

The two people passed through the hole that only allowed one Slittooth ant to pass through. The light on the other side of the hole was obviously dimmed, and the crisscrossed fork roads appeared in front of them.

I don’t know where I will lead to, no matter which way I go, I don’t know.

Pei Yi randomly picked a direction. During this time, his legs hardly fell on the ground, and he borrowed force from the cave wall from time to time, or stepped directly on the Scrapertooth ant.

When Pei Yi’s attention was on the Splittooth Ant who followed behind him, two more suddenly rushed out in front of him.

A blazing blade shot over, wiping Pei’s face, the scorching airflow seemed to burn his skin, and then smashed a dazzling spark on the rock wall behind him.

Pei Yi’s complexion stunned and suddenly accelerated. The two newly emerged cracktooth ants are very different from the ordinary ones. They are less than one-third of the lower-level cracktooth ants. They are very thin and look like they may be broken at any time. Their appearance is colorful and gorgeous. Incomparable.

This is the third-level ability male ant!

They have their own racial abilities, just like the one with a fiery blade just now.

Pei Yi sent fierce sword aura between the **** that were close together, and frequently collided with the fire blade, and the strong air current scraped deep marks on the stone wall.

Xuan Xiao came here to help soon. Although he hasn’t cultivated his sword energy yet, his internal strength can be released.

Just as they worked together to kill the two male ants, a group of male ants came over in several fork roads nearby!

This time, the appearance of this group is more gorgeous, and there are wings that shine with cold light behind them! They flew directly.

The two they killed just now also have wings, but they don’t seem to be mature enough to fly. They should be juvenile male ants, and this group of ants now has the strongest combat effectiveness in the clefttooth ant colony. A sort of!

They spit out light blades of different colors at Pei Yi and Xuanxiao frantically, which can be seen with the naked eye. These light blades are more lethal than the two previous ones.

Pei Yi already felt that he was beginning to feel a little strenuous. This level of cracktooth ants possessed intelligence comparable to that of humans. Their protruding eyes flashed red, with anger and cruel emotions in them.

Not only that, they also know how to cooperate with each other. The large number of adult male ants almost surrounded Pei and the two of them in the attack circle. For Pei, this feeling seemed to be playing against many masters.

In individual comparison, his power is stronger than any of these male ants, but the opponent suppressed them in number.

The originally not spacious ant nest road appeared to be more crowded. The collision of energy caused small gravels to fall from the top of the head, and the stone walls became more pitted.

Pei Yi accidentally scratched his ears with a light blade. The light blade was too sharp. He only felt a slight pain. The next moment a warm damp heat came from his left shoulder, and the blood dripped on the wound. Falling, dyed the cloth red.

Xuan Xiao’s own beasts have a keen sense of smell, and he smelled blood at almost the same time. He is very familiar with this smell, it is the smell that belongs to the owner!

As soon as he turned his head, he saw the blood red on Pei Yi’s shoulder, and his eyes were red instantly, as if he was going to choose someone to eat!

These **** bugs dare to hurt their master!

His fangs popped out instantly, he roared low, and his tail pierced the air with a whistling sound.

The next moment, his tough combat uniform was torn apart, and his body stretched and enlarged in the blink of an eye. The huge ice-blue liger appeared in the cave. With a violent roar, the powerful energy on his body was almost To knock down the stone wall!

“Xuan Xiao!” Pei Yi’s eyes sank, his heart tightened, and he whispered.

This was the first time he called Xuan Xiao’s name in such a serious tone.
