"Yes, the burrowing insect is such a dangerous creature."

Fabion nodded to confirm Jiang Feng's guess.

"There are no less than a hundred ground diggers living in this forest, and most of them live alone. Only during the breeding season will males and females pair up, live together, lay eggs, and raise offspring."

"Digging insects that live alone or in pairs pose little threat. They are themselves a link in the biological chain that maintains the natural ecological balance. There is no need to hunt them specifically."

"But in rare cases, there will be special cases where a large number of ground-burrowing insects live in groups. These giant insects with huge appetites will quickly eat away the roots of plants near their habitats, causing large areas of vegetation to wither and die, and the beasts in the forest will Either they are eaten by ground-burrowing insects, or they are forced to migrate and flee, causing devastating damage to the local ecological balance."

"Unfortunately, there is such a group of crazy digging insects deep in the maze forest. Originally, I planned to personally eliminate the insect swarm. Since you are here, I will take this task as a test and leave it to you to complete. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

After hearing what Fabion said about the second test, the lion scratched his head and turned back with a confused look on his face to ask his companion: "What is a digger?"

"Judging from the name... it seems to be a big bug that can dig holes." Tin Woodman Nick speculated.

"Oh! My dear friend, besides these nonsense, can you say anything else?" the lion asked angrily.

"Sorry, this touches on my knowledge blind spot. We should ask Miss Mage for advice." Nick shrugged.

Ma Yun opened the astrolabe, searched for the entry "digger" in the database, and quickly found the corresponding monster illustration.

Judging from the picture, the burrowing insect looks like a giant cricket, with a brown shell, six lower limbs, about twelve feet long from head to toe, and a weight of nearly half a ton.

This insect-shaped magical beast is good at digging holes. The lair it lives in is like an underground maze, full of criss-crossing tunnels.

Diggers spend most of their lives hiding quietly in underground tunnels while maintaining a high level of vigilance, listening for disturbances from the surface above with a pair of extremely sensitive tentacles.

When the prey walks across the surface, the slight footsteps will be transmitted along the soil to the underground, and will be captured by the burrowing insects lurking underground, and then drill out of the cave to launch a surprise attack on the prey.

The average health of an adult burrowing insect is about 60 points. The hard insect shell provides +9 natural defense, which is equivalent to a set of full-body armor forged from fine steel. Various attributes: strength 21, agility 10, constitution 17, intelligence 1, Perception 13, Charisma 6.

The challenge level of the burrower is about level 3. It has poor eyesight, but it is born with a well-developed sense of smell and hearing. It also has mastered "Alertness", "Strongness", "Grab", "Mastery Initiative" and "Mastery Grappling". and other expertise.

Digging bugs are good at launching surprise attacks, using their strong jaws to bite unprepared prey and drag it deep into the cave.

If the prey is alert enough and the worm fails to attack, it will use another weapon to spray highly corrosive acid from its mouth to kill the prey trying to escape from itself.

The acid spitted by the worm can reach up to 30 feet (10 meters), causing 3d6 points of acid damage, double the damage to metal equipment that is prone to rust.

Hearing this, the Tin Woodman couldn't help but tremble.

"Don't worry, Nick, put this amulet on and you won't have to be afraid of the acid spewed by the diggers."

Ma Yun took out a plaster filled with "anti-acid barrier" and put it on the Tin Man's chest.

At her current casting level, the "Acid Resistant Barrier" can offset 30 points of acid damage, and she is basically immune to the acid spray of the Digger.

Gao Fei, Jiang Feng and Dimitri were also blessed with "anti-acid barriers" by Ma Yun.

When everyone was ready, "Tree Dragon" Fabion used the 6-ring natural magic "Wood Escape" to teleport them collectively to the area where the burrowing insects were active.

Deep in the dense forest, there is a large and unexpected open space.

The trees that originally grew in this generation have withered and withered because their roots and stems were dug up by groundworms.

The forest clearing, covered with a thick layer of dead branches and leaves, was dotted with dozens of holes, the diameter of which was two meters wide.

A total of ten adult burrowing insects are entrenched in this area, making the area a restricted area that forest birds and beasts have always been afraid of.

In the dark dense forest, a tall camphor tree suddenly burst out with green magical light, illuminating the surrounding area.

The huge figure of "Tree Dragon" Fabion first broke away from the camphor tree, and then, the figures of Gao Fei and others also emerged from around Fabion.

With the help of the 6th level "Wood Escape Technique", Fabion can teleport between any two trees of the same type, no matter how far apart the two trees are from each other.

After leading Gao Fei and others to the mission location, Fabion disappeared into the forest, with only his instructions still echoing in the forest.

"Be safe, young friends!"

"If you feel that this test is too difficult, you can stop at any time, and I will cast a spell to help you get out of danger. After that, you should not try to cross the maze forest - the flying dragon king Medellin and his accomplices are far more powerful than Ten ground-burrowing worms are even more terrifying!”

After watching Fabion leave, Gao Fei summoned his companions to discuss how to eliminate the burrowing insect swarm.

Everyone agreed that there is nothing more stupid than digging into a hole in the ground to kill insects. Even the reckless lion Dimitri knew that doing so would be tantamount to suicide.

"First, we have to try to attract the burrowing insects hiding deep in the cave." Gao Fei said, looking at the clearing in the forest.

"It would be great if there was a bard in our team. Singing a 'ecstasy' can easily seduce those big bugs with low IQs." Jiang Feng said regretfully.

Gao Fei thought of another spell from "Ecstasy" and turned to ask Ma Yun: "The richest man, your 'Rainbow Robe' comes with 3 rings of 'Hypnosis Pattern'. Its function is similar to that of 'Ecstasy'. Can it be used?" Use this trick to lure the worms out of their holes?"

Xiao Ma shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Brother Fei, you are wrong! Although the 'Hypnosis Pattern' also causes group fascination, it must be transmitted through vision. The eyesight of the Digger is very poor. It is still hidden deep in the underground cave and cannot see me at all. How can the spell released be hypnotized?"

"In other words, we must first try to lure the burrowing insects to the entrance of the cave, and then release the 'hypnotic pattern' close to the face to attract them to crawl out of the cave." Gao Fei pondered.

"Hey! Friends, I thought of a good idea!" The lion seemed to suddenly become smarter. "I will go to the forest to catch a small animal and throw it in the forest clearing as bait. Then I can catch those big animals hiding underground. Is the insect seduced?"
