From the residential area to the temple, there is a rocky forest in the middle - large and small gray stone columns are crowded together, and only a few trails can pass through.

Although soshyang was very careful, the accident happened while crossing the rocky forest.

The man leading the way, when leading the team around a three meter high stone pillar, suddenly disappeared - without warning.

Soshyang didn't notice anything.

There was no shouting, No footsteps, and no trace of psionics.

But the man, so silent, disappeared less than three meters away from them.

"Is this a trap?"

Almin protected the boy behind him and looked around vigilantly. The boy woke up ten minutes ago, but he never said a word.

"Be alert and move on."

Although he lost his guide, soshyang glanced at the temple not far away and found that they were no more than 500 meters away from that place.

Obviously, staying here is more dangerous than moving.

The team then began to advance towards the temple.

But after walking for five minutes, soshyang realized that they had not narrowed the distance from the temple. The layout of this rocky forest was a little strange.

"Sol, what do you think?"

At the critical moment, he turned to the veteran's rich experience again.

Saul glanced around, then took out some grenades from his waist, smiled and said:

"I once heard the world swallowers say that no maze can go out, because it is a thinking trap, so we should abandon those unnecessary thoughts and ideas."

With that, he threw a grenade forward.

Boom!

The powerful armor piercing grenade exploded, and then the rubble fell like rain.

"Go."

The team walked into the smoke and saw a huge gap in the dense stone forest, and they were finally a little closer to the target.

Then there was another grenade, but the explosion was bigger than before, and the smog directly involved the team.

Soshyang took a step back. He couldn't see the players and could only feel each other's existence.

Suddenly, he found that there seemed to be one more person in the team——

Or a shadow.

Right behind you, follow closely

"Who!"

Soshyang immediately reacted, dodged to the left, and sensed an attack before the sound of tearing the air arrived.

A silent, deadly, praiseworthy attack.

Soshyang rolled awkwardly on the ground and waved his sword to resist the next attack.

Immediately, the metal made a loud noise in the violent impact.

But somehow, soshyang suddenly couldn't feel anyone else.

He seemed to be isolated, or came to an independent space, only the lingering smoke, himself and an unknown enemy.

At this time, the sound of breaking the air hit again.

Soshyang twisted his body to turn back, but this move also exposed the left side of his body.

Just a moment's opportunity, the metal claw with thorns quickly pierced the gap between soshyang's left shoulder armor and neck guard like a poisonous snake.

The pain came from his neck. Soshyang felt an unprecedented crisis. He strongly resisted the roar that was about to blurt out, and suddenly stretched out his left hand to grasp each other's wrist.

But his idea failed. Before he stretched out his hand, the other party had separated from his contact. At the moment of pulling out his claw, he also brought out a string of blood beads.

"Who are you?"

Soshyang felt that the other party was a meter away, but he couldn't see anything.

Then he felt the strong wind from the pavement, which was as fast as lightning.

Soshyang could only retreat back, but he could feel the claw stabbing his face and aimed at his eyes, aiming to blind rather than kill.

He swayed away from the attack, then cut forward with his sword, but fell into the air.

At this time, the cold touch appeared in the back of his neck.

Just gently everything, maybe he will drop his head.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, Sol's fierce drink sounded, followed by the roar of explosives. The bullets swished past soshyang.

With a gust of wind, the cold touch left behind soshyang. Then he heard the sound of the bullet being cut and exploded, and the existence disappeared into the dark.

"Where has he gone?"

With a gun in one hand and a sword in the other, soshyang slowly turned around and sensed even the slightest sound with his ears. His eyes and other senses were looking for anything that could launch an attack.

But everything disappeared, and the smoke gradually dispersed. Then sol with a bomb pistol came towards him, and others appeared nearby.

"Commander Zhan, what happened? Why did you suddenly leave the team?"

Hearing almin's words, soshyang looked at sol.

"Just now you suddenly left the team, and then we went to find you, but we couldn't find you until I heard the sound of battle."

"Is that so?"

Soshyang was lost in thought, and then he looked at the smoke that was dissipating.

"These cigarettes are strange..."

"This is not smoke."

Suddenly, a young voice attracted the starfighters' eyes. They looked down and found that it was timid Nick.

"What's this, Nick?"

"Well... I heard from grandma that there are ghost insects underground. They are very small. They gather like a large piece of smoke. They can make people invisible and inaudible. Even if they stand next to each other, they can't feel each other. If miners are entangled by ghost insects, they will be trapped and die in the mine cave, and then ghost insects will eat their bodies..."

"I see..."

Sol nodded.

"This tiny creature may produce some pheromone that misplaces people's senses."

"The important thing is, will we encounter it later?"

Soshyang pointed to the core of the problem.

Sol thought on his side for a few seconds, then looked in the direction where the second grenade had just landed.

"This creature feeds on corpses, that is to say..."

After leading the team forward for dozens of meters, he found a large number of skinned bodies on the stone pillars, most of which were pure blood gene thieves.

"Don't touch those bodies."

When Saul saw that the bodies were covered with white "fluff", he quickly reflected the other soldiers.

Obviously, the explosion just now alerted these micro insects and gave each other an opportunity.

With experience, the team moved more carefully and carefully checked whether there were bodies before opening the road with grenades.

After half an hour's delay, they finally arrived at the temple.

Although it is a temple, from the appearance, it is more like a crude building simply piled up of square rocks. There are no complicated decorations of most religions, no inscriptions or monuments, or even worship facilities. There is only a ladder that leads directly to the open door in the center of the building.

Everyone was alert to the darkness around them and climbed the stairs step by step.
