Chapter 70 Blood Mosquito Exodus
Chapter 70 Blood Mosquito Exodus
He calmed his mind and began to guide the energy flowing within his body to slowly restore his physical fatigue.
Although the barrier of Sequence 2 remains strong, it is clear that we are one step closer to it.
The Star Anchor and Star Eye slowly activated, and energy from the Blood Sun, Silver Moon, and even the dim stars in the sky flowed into the body, nourishing the body that had just been violently strengthened.
The characteristics of "star trails" naturally unfold, and the energy flow within a radius of nearly 100 meters is fully under control.
The slow-seeping water beneath the swamp, the faint signs of life remaining in the dead wood, even the thin miasma drifting in the air...
They all transformed into countless blurry threads, outlining another kind of "liveliness" in this desolate swamp. This feeling was so wonderful that Xu Si was momentarily captivated.
Time passed silently.
Just then, a very subtle yet incredibly dense vibration suddenly came from the edge of "Star Trail's" perception!
That wasn't some large creature, but countless tiny life forms surging toward the convoy at an astonishing speed!
[Level 1 Anomaly Detected - Blood Swamp Mosquito Swarm (Swarm Consciousness)]
【Characteristics: Bloodlust, Paralysis, Interference】
[Spend 200 purification points to purify the human presence of the convoy, time limit: 10 minutes]
"Yes"
"Something's fishy! Stay in your cars and don't move!"
Xu Si's urgent voice came through the walkie-talkie to the entire convoy, his voice deliberately kept to a minimum. Then Bing Xin activated her ability to freeze the convoy.
They had no choice but to seal it off. The convoy's windows were all in disarray from their escape. If these hordes of monsters were to get inside, none of them would survive.
In Xinggui's perception, a gray-black "cloud wall" several hundred meters long was clinging to the surface of the swamp, spreading toward the convoy at a terrifying speed!
Those aren't clouds, they're mosquitoes! A death tide of countless giant swamp mosquitoes, each the size of a fist, with mouthparts gleaming with an eerie light!
Xu Si thought of a phrase: locusts passing through.
However, now blood mosquitoes are passing through.
The sound of their flapping wings was no longer a buzzing sound, but a deep rumble like muffled thunder, stirring up the fog wherever they went!
Without a sound, all the vehicles in the convoy were also covered by a layer of stone armor.
"My God!" Fu Xiaojian's sequence was frantically alarming at this moment!
Ronaldinho's psionic barrier was set to maximum.
The mountain has been directly petrified, its rock-like body blocking the broken windows of the bus.
Su Su had already regained consciousness; the knuckle dusters on her boxing gloves gleamed with a dark light, and her sharp eyes were fixed on what lay ahead.
The little girl was so frightened that she covered her mouth, afraid that she would scream.
The swarm of mosquitoes was incredibly fast; in just a few breaths, they had closed to within a hundred meters of the convoy!
The deep rumble was like a demonic sound, making everyone feel dizzy and disoriented. This was its characteristic—interference!
The swarm of mosquitoes, like a black tide, engulfed the area where the convoy was located in an instant.
Xu Si held his breath and looked out through the car window covered with a thick layer of ice.
As far as the eye could see, there were countless fist-sized black shadows, frantically attacking everything in their path.
Xu Si had no choice but to activate the Extreme Cold Domain to its maximum.

……
Xu Si swore he really didn't intend to be Xu the Skinflint; it was all an accident.
The blood mosquitoes swarmed densely, as if covering the convoy with a layer of black foam. If Xu Si hadn't completely eliminated the convoy's aura beforehand, Xiao Luo's psionic barrier alone probably wouldn't have been able to protect the convoy.
In his mind, system notifications continued to flood the screen, but they were almost all level 0 anomalies, which also indicated that the damage ceiling of the Extreme Cold Domain was only this much.
While these mosquitoes may not pose a significant threat individually, their sheer number is simply overwhelming!
Otherwise, Xu Si would definitely have to find a way to replenish the purification.
Now, all he could ask was that these guys ignore their convoy and just let them go.
The ice and stone armor are being consumed and thinned at a visible rate by countless impacts and piercings from the mouthparts!
"Tashan, reinforce it!" Fu Xiaojian's voice rang out on the walkie-talkie, filled with suppressed urgency.
Tashan let out a low roar, and the rocks around it shimmered with light, with more stone covering the vehicle, especially vulnerable parts such as the windows.
The ice covering the pickup truck where Su Su was was relatively thin, and several blood mosquitoes actually managed to break through the ice and try to squeeze in through the crack in the broken window! Jiao Jiao screamed in fright, but Su Su's eyes turned cold, and her fist flew like lightning, instantly blasting the blood mosquitoes into pieces in mid-air, their foul-smelling juices splashing into the truck.
"This won't do! The ice and stone armor won't last much longer!" Xu Si could sense it.
With "Ice Heart" maintaining such a large area of ice, his extraordinary energy was being consumed rapidly. If he hadn't just strengthened himself, he really wouldn't have been able to hold on for much longer.
The rock armor of Tashan is probably the same.
"We can't just sit here and wait to die! We need something big!"
With his starlight shining upon him, Xu Si opened the car door, and instantly countless blood mosquitoes swarmed towards him, their phototaxis fully displayed at that moment.
At this moment, he resembled a beekeeper, wearing a layer of blood-red mosquito armor, the armor still increasing in thickness, obscuring his starlight so completely that not a single ray of light could penetrate.
The 'Starburst' in his palm was slowly gathering energy, while simultaneously shattering countless blood mosquitoes.
The blood mosquitoes that accidentally swarmed into the "Wax Melting Messenger" instantly disappeared into the leather, seats, and steering wheel the moment they touched them, just like ripples on the water's surface and ripples in the heart, with none of them escaping.
No one noticed that at this moment, the oil level on the dial of the "Wax Melting Messenger" was slowly rising.
"Go there!"
Only when the size of the starburst satisfied Xu Si did he throw it into the swarm of mosquitoes in the opposite direction of the convoy.
The swarm of mosquitoes seemed to be stirred up by an invisible hand, instantly boiling over!
A starburst exploded deep within the swarm of mosquitoes, unleashing a blinding crimson light. The violent energy shockwave spread out in a ring, turning tens of thousands of blood mosquitoes into dust as if they were thrown into a meat grinder. Foul-smelling juices and severed limbs rained down, creating countless deep craters on the muddy ground.

……
The notification sounds were almost continuous.
This attack cleared out at least the swarm of mosquitoes within a 20-meter radius. At the same time, the intense blood-red light attracted the attention of the blood mosquitoes covering the convoy, temporarily relieving the pressure on the front of the convoy.
The tide has changed direction.
Countless blood mosquitoes swept past the convoy and surged toward the direction where the blood light had just erupted.
Xu Si, also dressed in "armor," climbed into the car.
However, before he could activate the 'Extreme Cold Domain', the blood mosquitoes on his body dissolved at a speed visible to the naked eye until he was completely free of any burdens.
The car's fuel level was now full.
