Dragon of the Root - Chapter 992: Dark Arthropod

Chapter 992: Dark Arthropod

Quetzalcoatl is not in the city of Eridu, but next to the city of Eri.

At this time, Wu Ming decided to leave first. After all, the magic power really made him uneasy. If he, Jaguar Man, and Anna left like this, the citizens of Eridu City might be in danger.

Wu Ming turned his head to look at Jaguar Man with the most sensitive nerves. At this moment, she narrowed his eyes and looked at the city of Eri without moving. It seems that she also noticed the disgusting magic of power.

“Let’s go, go to Eri first.”

…

The remaining Eri City

Eri Townspeople work, rest and repeat again and again. Even though they had been in a state of terror for a while because of Quetzalcoatl, because of the Feathered Serpent God’s participation, Eri City had returned to normal.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and the water to drink the water, after all, changes have occurred around the city of Eri. After Quetzalcoatl’s approval, people would enter the forest from time to time to collect some items for a living.

However, this dense forest was moved by Quetzalcoatl according to the dense forests of South America. It has many resources, be it water, fruit trees, and medicinal plants. However since the trees were full of water, they were not suitable for firewood, but sufficient for Eri town.

In addition, the dense forest will repel the Demon Beasts, and the Jaguar Man and the kobolds under their command will help collect from time to time.

As usual, the residents of Eri Town who came out harvested supplies from the dense forest and returned to Eri Town, but it was different this time, after they returned from their trip, someone greeted them at the town’s entrance.

“It’s hard work, everyone, let’s rest here first.” The one who spoke was a woman who seemed to be noble in an elegant veil and dress.

Even if there is a veil covering, her beauty is still clearly visible, but no one will be charmed by a woman, because the female part makes them subconsciously respect.

“Siduri-sama, thank you for waiting for us here.” The leader-like figure answered Siduri respectfully.

This woman was exactly Siduri who had come from Uruk with Gudako and the others. For some reason, she was left behind. After hearing that the people who had left were about to return, she volunteered to come to the city entrance for a short stay.

Siduri didn’t know what to do, because the Dragon Sage high priest, the citizens of Eri City had great respect for her, and she wasn’t allowed to do any dirty work. More importantly the living habits of the citizens of Eri Town and resting have changed due to the dense forest.

Siduri who doesn’t know these things, can’t do it even if she wants to be forced to work, and it may be detrimental.

That was why she greeted the people back at the city entrance, and she could only play a part in this at this time.

The people sat in the open space next to them for a while, while Siduri looked at the materials that people had gathered.

“The harvest this time doesn’t seem like much.”

Even if Siduri had never seen what an advantage was before, she could see at a glance that there wasn’t much of an advantage this time.

After all, this time it was so poor that people brought a few jars of water and fruit, and nothing else.

“The surrounding materials are basically gathered in almost the same area, Jaguar Man and the others have suffered some casualties to deal with the Demon Beasts. We really have a lot of things we can’t put together.” The little leader is full of gratitude and guilt.

Not only the leader, but everyone.

They are not uneducated people. They were protected by dense forests and gods, and they were able to harvest materials they had never seen before. The point was that if they persisted in this land full of Demon Beasts, they would be very satisfied, so they were grateful.

As for the guilt, it was entirely because the kobolds under Jaguar Man were killed and injured a lot during the battle with the Demon Beasts. In the end, they dealt with Demon Beasts for their sake, and guilt was inevitable.

“Okay, all done, sort and save the ingredients, then go back to your family~”

“Yes, Siduri-sama!” Siduri was like a messenger, and the exhaustion of the people who had gone out to gather supplies was instantly drained.

However at this moment, suddenly there was a “clack clack” sound in the dense forest behind everyone.

Everyone turned their heads and looked, they really couldn’t imagine anything that could make such a strange sound.

It couldn’t be an animal, because such a thing wasn’t something a living being could expel.

The trees in the dense forest began to shake, and the bushes rustled.

A brave citizen, armed with a knife, walked boldly to examine him, and he walked into the bushes.

But in the next second, a pitch-black cone-like object suddenly stabbed towards him.

In an instant, the citizens were stabbed, and blood suddenly spilled out.

Immediately after, the object that stabbed the citizens came out.

“!?!?”

Everyone present was frightened, what is this strange thing? !

Dark arthropods appeared in front of people.

The head has no facial features, only a long slanted mouth, the big red snake head droops extremely disgustingly outside the mouth, and the neat big white teeth can’t make people feel calm, and the other party’s black body makes people feel uncomfortable.

Appearing to feel extremely repulsive, the humanoid body under his head was quite weak and extremely delicate. His legs had also slumped into two thin lines, and it seemed that the ability to walk had been completely lost.

On the other hand, the other side has four arms like the arthropods.

Three of the four sharp-pointed limbs are scattered in three directions as support for the weak body, and the fourth limb that is raised hangs the stabbed citizen.

Blood flowed all over the ground in the blink of an eye, and the citizens who fought twice before basically stopped moving.

“zsyysnrldstzscrn—”

Some completely incomprehensible words came from the mouth of this inexplicable thing that no one had seen before, and everyone who heard it felt uncomfortable.

With the emergence of this unknown, it is really visual pollution.

There was no doubt that Demon Beasts wreaked havoc on this land. Even though Eri’s people were protected, it was precisely because of this that they had no way of venting if they didn’t go to the battlefield, right now their nerves were extremely sensitive and tense.

But now, the tensed nerves are like being “cut” by this visual pollution, and many have feelings of hopelessness, and fear in their hearts.

And the next second, this fear is even more.
