Chapter 1424 Mosquito King
Immediately afterwards, a huge mosquito suddenly jumped out from the dark corner.
The body of this colorful mosquito is as big as a millstone, and its back and abdomen are covered with intricate, layered patterns.
The shape of the pattern was like a distorted human face, or a rotten and festering wound, and the color was even more strange and ugly.
It was a mixture of brown and dark black, with a faint, sickening glow, as if it was a mark of a demon's curse.
It is covered with an extremely hard shell that gleams with a cold metallic luster.
A pair of compound eyes are like huge blue shadow beads, protruding from the sides of the head.
Countless tiny hexagonal eyes are closely inlaid, like the scales of a devil, glowing with cold metallic light and flickering blue light, as if hiding an abyss of countless conspiracies and cruelty. It stares coldly at everyone, showing its cunning and cruelty, as if planning a bloody massacre.
The appearance of the flower mosquito made the surrounding air seem to solidify a little in an instant, and a strong sense of oppression rolled in like a surging tide.
Although the frequency of its wing vibration is low, it can cause the surrounding air to vibrate violently.
With its appearance, the swarm of mosquitoes, which had gradually calmed down, suddenly became agitated again.
Suddenly, the flower mosquito trembled all over, and its abdomen bulged violently, emitting a sharp and piercing high-frequency sound wave like metal scraping against glass. The sound wave spread around like a surging tide of malice.
The mosquitoes around seemed to have received some kind of evil attack order, and instantly like a surging black tide, they rushed towards everyone again frantically.
Li Luo's eyes flashed, knowing that this flower mosquito was the leader of the mosquito group and must be subdued first.
She acted decisively and swung her hands quickly. Wood-based supernatural powers surged out, and countless thick vines broke out from the ground, winding towards the flower mosquito like spirit snakes, trying to wrap it tightly.
At the same time, water-based supernatural powers condensed at her fingertips, transforming into sharp water arrows that shot towards the flower mosquito's eyes, accurately interfering with its vision and movements.
Li Luo's eyes were calm and focused, and he kept looking for Hua Wanzi's fatal weakness during the battle.
Her figure appeared agile and resolute in her dealings with the flower mosquito. Relying on her exquisite control of supernatural powers and rich combat experience, she engaged in a thrilling duel with this powerful "Mosquito King" alone.
Lu Jingcheng, Shi Xinxin, Chu Yuanqing, Tu Dou, Gyro and the members of the Fiery Team quickly dispersed, each using their special abilities and powers to fight against the mosquitoes that were swooping towards them at the orders of Hua Wenzi.
Lu Jingcheng skillfully combined the abilities of wind, fire, thunder, ice and gold to form energy barriers to block the mosquitoes' attack routes. At the same time, he released energy pulses to shake off the approaching mosquitoes.
The power of ice and fire in Shi Xinxin's hands became stronger and stronger. The ice and fire bombs streaked across the sky like meteors, and exploded precisely in places where mosquitoes were densely packed, eliminating large numbers of mosquitoes in an instant.
Chu Yuanqing concentrated all his mental strength and built an invisible mental defense line in his mind, covering everyone and making the mosquitoes' attacks chaotic and disorderly. He also occasionally used mental interference on the mosquitoes approaching Li Luo to prevent them from interfering with Li Luo's battle with Hua Wenzi.
Potato jumped and shuttled flexibly between the ground and the air. Its teeth and claws flashed with cold light, and each pounce could tear apart several mosquitoes.
The gyroscope danced with its tentacles, and the mucus secreted by the tentacles stuck to large numbers of mosquitoes like spider silk, making them unable to move, and they could only be easily killed by subsequent attacks while struggling.
As the battle was in full swing, Li Luo keenly noticed that the Mosquito King's abdomen seemed to be its weak point during the fierce confrontation with the flower mosquito.
She seized the perfect opportunity, concentrated the power of the wood vines at one point, and stabbed the mosquito hard in the abdomen. At the same time, her water ability turned into a powerful stream of water to hit its abdomen, weakening its defense.
Hua Wenzi noticed something and tried to dodge hastily, but under Li Luo's fierce attack, it was too late to make an effective response.
Li Luo's attack successfully hit the Mosquito King's abdomen, and the powerful energy instantly burned its abdomen.
The Mosquito King let out a shrill scream, struggled desperately for a few times, and finally fell to the ground and died.
With the death of the Mosquito King, the remaining mosquitoes seemed to have lost their backbone and scattered like birds and beasts, disappearing in every corner of the building in an instant.
As soon as the tense atmosphere of the battle eased, Li Luo's eyes scanned everyone anxiously and asked with concern:
"Is everyone injured?"
Everyone responded, either shaking their heads or giving comforting looks.
Li Luo then breathed a sigh of relief.
You know, being bitten by these mutated mosquitoes is no small matter.
In this harsh environment of the end of the world, mutated mosquitoes have become deadly "mobile germ reservoirs".
They carry a large number of unknown and complex bacteria and viruses. Once bitten, those viruses and bacteria will quickly invade the human blood system like a surging black tide.
For ordinary people, high fever may occur in a very short period of time, causing the body temperature to rise sharply, and the whole person feels as if being roasted on fire, falling into extreme weakness and pain.
What follows is dysfunction of various organs in the body.
The liver cannot metabolize and detoxify normally under the attack of the virus, the kidneys will gradually fail due to excessive burden, and the nervous system will be severely damaged, which may cause the victim to fall into madness, confusion, uncontrollable convulsions and tremors, and eventually die in endless pain and despair.
Even if you are as powerful as a psychic, being bitten by these mutated mosquitoes is not pleasant.
The virus will conflict with the supernatural energy in the body of the psychic, eroding their physical and mental strength, greatly reducing the use of their supernatural powers, and causing the body to experience symptoms such as fatigue and severe pain from the backlash of the supernatural powers.
In serious cases, they may even temporarily lose their special powers, becoming fish on the chopping board to be slaughtered by mutant creatures, and fall into an extremely dangerous situation in this crisis-ridden apocalypse.
Shi Xinxin patted her chest lightly, still feeling a little scared:
"I never thought there would be so many mutant mosquitoes in T City. The scene just now was really scary."
As she spoke, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and threw it aside.
Li Luo panted slightly and nodded in response:
"Yes, this is the first time I've seen a mosquito attack of this scale. There may be more unknown dangers lurking in the dark in T City. We must not take it lightly. We must be careful and vigilant at every step from now on."
There was a hint of worry in her eyes, but more of it was fearlessness and determination for future challenges.
