Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

When Jila began to ascend, the entire hive was completely closed as if it had entered hibernation.

The outer wall of the insect nest shrank inward, and the shell-like surface took on a metallic luster, and the defense was significantly improved in a short period of time.

The long wait began, and Jila's promotion to the second level this time seemed exceptionally slow - this was not surprising, after all, evolution is a dangerous transformation.

Any slight mistake could lead to evolutionary failure, and in this cruel world, the price of failure is only one: death.

Just as Jila began to evolve, Lin Yi noticed subtle changes in the surrounding environment.

There seemed to be some invisible energy flowing in the air, converging towards the insect nest like a trickle.

"I didn't expect that the protagonist-type props could actually work in this situation." Lin Yi stretched out his hand, and seemed to be able to feel the invisible luck converging towards Jila.

Among the contractors, special items dropped by the protagonists have never been popular.

The main reason is that most of the effects of this kind of special props are described in very subtle terms, making it difficult for them to provide any positive help to the contractor.

The withered seeds used this time are a typical example.

Although the Seed of Withering did not allow Jira to obtain such an exaggerated title as the Child of the World (fake), after absorbing this seed, she gained a slight amount of the power of destiny in this world.

For ordinary people, this power of destiny may be insignificant and hardly plays a decisive role in the battle between life and death.

But at a critical moment like evolution, which concerns the transformation of the essence of life, the value of the power of destiny is completely different.

It can ensure that the evolutionary process will not be disturbed by accidents, allowing each step of transformation to be a natural process - this is simply the perfect guarantee for the insect queen who shoulders the responsibility of the evolution of the clan.

"Wang!"

Just as Lin Yi and Su Xiao were observing Jila's evolving posture, Bubuwang suddenly called out to them twice.

"Huh? Someone is invading?" Su Xiao's eyes focused, and his right hand was already on the hilt of the Zhanlongshan sword.

He and Lin Yi looked at each other, and without further ado, they moved as fast as lightning, rushing out of the camp in a few flashes and disappearing into the jungle.

At the same time, the Shadow Corps and Engineer Mantis scattered around the camp all stopped their hunting operations.

They quickly contracted their defenses and densely surrounded the insect nest, with their sharp claws slightly open, ready to tear apart any invading enemy at any time.

Su Xiao took out the Eye of Reconnaissance. This mechanical eyeball was suspended in the air, rotating slowly, and its field of vision covered an area of ​​several kilometers.

Unlike Lin Yi's detection equipment that locks onto individuals, Su Xiao's Reconnaissance Eye is better at large-scale surveillance and can capture abnormal movements in the first place.

Not long after, the feedback from the reconnaissance eye came back - in the bushes about half a kilometer away from the insect nest, several figures were quietly moving.

They were several indigenous warriors wearing primitive animal skins with fiery red patterns all over their bodies.

They moved swiftly and their footsteps were so light that they made almost no sound. It was obvious that they were very familiar with the jungle.

The leader was holding a broken nail in his hand, which was emitting a faint light.

These primitive people walked quickly, with fanatical excitement on their faces. From their expressions, it seemed that they had discovered some kind of "treasure".

"Fireworks, can we find the new mother body?"

Su Xiao and Lin Yi hid in the crown of a towering ancient tree, and the dense branches and leaves perfectly concealed their figures.

After hearing this conversation, the two looked at each other and read seriousness in each other's eyes - the Sun Tribe actually mastered the method of tracking the insect nest, which was not good news.

"A, resonance, no, wrong..."

The primitive man with a mark on his forehead in the front spoke, his eyes were fiery red, as if they were burning with flames.

Lidya Su tilted her head slightly and gave Lin Yi a questioning look.

No words were needed, the two of them reached a tacit understanding in an instant.

When this group of primitive men passed under the tree, Lin Yi and Su Xiao restrained their aura to the extreme.

Their breathing became barely perceptible, and their heartbeats slowed to just three or four beats per minute, as if they had turned into part of the tree trunk.

A few seconds later, six primitive men came under the tree, and when the last one of them was in front of Su Xiaoxia, Su Xiao jumped down from the tree.

In mid-air, the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow wrapped around the Dragon Slash. Su Xiao held the long sword in one hand with the tip of the sword facing downward.

puff!

The sharp blade penetrated the skull without any hindrance, piercing straight into the top of the head of a primitive man, and the tip of the blade came out from the lower jaw with brain matter and broken bones.

The primitive man didn't even have time to scream before his pupils dilated.

As soon as Su Xiao's toes touched the ground, he immediately twisted his waist and wrists.

With the sound of bones rubbing against each other, the long knife that was held in reverse was violently pulled out, drawing a line of blood in the air.

He had changed his knife-holding posture as he turned his wrist, and at the same time, his right leg lashed out like a whip, kicking hard on the lower back of another primitive man in front of him.

"Crack!"

The crisp sound of the spine breaking can be clearly heard.

The pierced body flew to the front of the team with inertia, knocking the leader with a flame mark on his forehead to stagger forward.

Su Xiao took a step forward amid the flying of dead leaves. The Dragon Slash tore a pale blue arc in the air, and a head covered with red lines was thrown high into the air as the blade passed.

There was still an expression of disbelief and astonishment frozen on that face, and blood from the broken neck gushed into the air like a fountain.

Just when Su Xiao had diverted all the enemy's attention, Lin Yi appeared from the shadows and stabbed the captain in front of him through the chest with a sword.

With the dull sound of the sword entering the flesh, the captain suddenly turned his head.

The flame mark on his forehead suddenly lit up, and his fiery red eyes burst out with an eerie light in the dim jungle, like two burning blood-red lanterns.

A gurgling sound came from the pierced chest, and his Adam's apple rolled violently, making a series of strange tremors.

But how could Lin Yi give him a chance to fight back? He twisted his wrist, and the long sword stirred fiercely in the enemy's chest, and then he drew the sword back to cut.

A cold light flashed, and the captain's limbs were severed. In an instant, he turned into a human stick and fell to the ground with blood gushing out.

On the other side, Su Xiao was shaking off the blood drops on the blade. The dripping blood splashed on the dead leaves, creating red plum blossoms. There was a slight crackling sound coming from under his feet.

Three primitive men had surrounded him in a triangle formation, with the rough stone spears in their hands pointed at Su Xiao.

"Roar--!"

The primitive man on the left launched the first attack, and the stone spear pierced Su Xiao's throat with a sound of breaking through the air.

Su Xiao slightly tilted his body, and the Dragon-Slaying Flash drew a light blue arc in the air, and the stone spear broke with a sound.

The enemy on the right seized the opportunity and swung a bone knife made from the leg bones of some giant beast, carrying a bloody smell, and chopped it fiercely at Su Xiao's back.

"Qiang!"

The sound of metal collision was heard, and Lin Yi stood behind Su Xiao, blocking the attack with his sword.

The sword tip slid down the bone knife and cut off three of the opponent's fingers.

A cold light flashed in Su Xiao's eyes, and the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow jumped on the Dragon Slash.

He suddenly crouched down, swept his blade across, and cut off the knees of the two primitive men in front of him.

With a flash of cold light, another head and most of the body flew up. The two primitive men knelt on the ground, and blood spurted more than ten meters high from the broken body.

At this moment, the flame patterns on the body of the last primitive man lit up, and the surrounding air was distorted due to the high temperature.

Su Xiao could clearly feel the scorching air coming towards him, and his skin even felt a stinging pain.

But there was no hesitation in his movements, and he continued to advance like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath.

Three meters, two meters, one meter!
Just as Su Xiao was about to enter the attack range, the totem warrior opened his eyes and a column of blazing white fire gushed out of his mouth.

Su Xiao had anticipated this and rolled sideways to avoid the pillar of fire, then used the Dragon Slash to slash upwards.

The sound of the blade entering the flesh was drowned out by the roar of the flames. The totem warrior staggered back, looking in disbelief at the blood gushing from his chest.

The flame marks on his body quickly dimmed and eventually went out.

"It seems a little too simple." Su Xiao shook off the remaining blood on the Dragon Slash and looked around at the corpse on the ground with a frown.

The ease of this battle was far beyond expectations. The two looked at each other at the same time and read similar confusion in each other's eyes.

It's not their fault for worrying too much. After the nightmarish experience in the Dead City, any enemy was automatically labeled as thick-skinned and tough in their eyes.

The physical strength of the most common soldiers there was terrifyingly high, and each one was stronger than the other. Any boss could withstand their full-strength attack. They didn't expect that they could kill all the tribal warriors with one blow. It was beyond their expectations.

After dealing with these enemies, Lin Yi cast a healing spell on the dying tribal warrior.

However, under Lin Yi's control, the healing technique only healed the injuries inside his body and did not help him recover his missing limbs.

Su Xiao picked up the glowing claw from the pool of blood and squatted down in front of the primitive leader.

He waved his claws in front of the other person's eyes, and stared into those eyes burning with hatred with his blade-like gaze.

"How to use this thing?"

"have no idea……"

The primitive leader squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, but a hideous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, which was stained with blood foam.

Su Xiao looked into those eyes for three seconds and suddenly chuckled. He was too familiar with that look.

The light from the dragon-slaying sword drew a half cold moon in the sky.

"laugh--"

With the sound of the head rolling down, the life of the last tribal warrior was extinguished.

"We have to speed up."

"How to say?"

"Divide our forces into two groups. I will go to the warehouse of the Sun Tribe to steal the Life Stone, and you go to help Jira clear out the surrounding Zerg nests." The Zerg all know how to hoard bioenergy - it is the only way to evolve.

And Jira is now at a critical stage. If she can seize enough life stones, her evolution speed will be greatly improved.

"Do you need help?" Su Xiao frowned when he heard Lin Yi's plan.

Don’t underestimate the totem tribes here just because they are primitive people. The combat effectiveness of these totem tribes is more exaggerated than each other, and their detection methods are endless.

They just haven't got any points in the technology tree, but in the extraordinary field, the foundation of these tribes is unfathomable.

The Zerg had no shortage of combat units that could burrow and attack, but even so they were still firmly suppressed by the Totem Tribe - this alone was enough to illustrate how terrifying these primitive people were.

"Please lend it to me, Bubuwang. Its concealment ability is more suitable for this operation."

Bubuwang's stealth talent can greatly reduce the risk of action, especially when facing the Sun Tribe's treacherous detection methods.

"it is good."

When the two returned to the vicinity of the insect nest, the nest was still in the evolution stage, and it looked like it would not be able to complete the evolution in a short while.

Su Xiao told Bubu Wang about this. Bubu Wang nodded, came to Lin Yi and called out twice, asking when Lin Yi would set off.

Lin Yi said he was not in a hurry. He asked in the war channel if there was anyone in the Sun Tribe.

Soon, several individual contractors responded to Lin Yi and sent him a coordinate, asking him to come to the vicinity of this coordinate.

Following the coordinates, Lin Yi and Bubu Wang passed through a canyon covered with totem carvings.

"Doctor, this way."

After Lin Yi arrived at this area, an elf girl wearing leather armor waved at Lin Yi, and next to her stood a wizard wearing glasses and a melee fighter wearing boxing gloves.

These three people were the individual players who had just contacted Lin Yi in the war channel.

"The Sun Tribe's detection methods are so powerful? They even choose to meet in such a remote area."

"Their detection methods are a bit troublesome. Normal detection methods can only detect the life breath of a creature, but the Sun Tribe's detection can also detect the energy fluctuations of a creature."

"It is said that a long time ago, a Zerg that evolved the ability to mimic itself infiltrated the tribe disguised as a dead warrior. After that incident, the Sun Tribe upgraded its detection system."

The contractor wearing glasses explained to Lin Yi in detail the principle of the Sun Tribe's detection. After hearing the other party's answer, Lin Yi suddenly felt it was difficult.

"In other words, as long as you step into the detection range of the Sun Tribe, no matter how you hide your aura, the energy fluctuations will be exposed?"

"That's right. We tried using camouflage skills before, but the Sun Tribe's detection totems seem to be able to identify 'unnatural' energy fluctuations, and camouflage is more likely to trigger an alarm."

The man with boxing gloves next to him crossed his arms and said in a deep voice: "The safest way is to let the Sun Tribe 'recognize' your energy fluctuations."

Lin Yi's eyes moved: "What do you mean?"

The bespectacled wizard pushed his glasses and explained, "When the warriors of the Sun Tribe reach adulthood, they will undergo a 'totem imprinting' ceremony. This imprinting not only strengthens the body, but also leaves their souls with the 'mark' of the Sun Tribe."

"So, what the detection totem really identifies is 'whether there is a sun mark'."

Lin Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any way to forge this kind of mark?"

"Yes." The elf girl took out a red crystal from the storage space. "This is the 'soul fragment' we extracted from a dead sun warrior. It can temporarily simulate the sun mark, but it only lasts for 30 minutes."

She paused, then added: "If we encounter high-level totem warriors, they may notice something unusual."

Lin Yi took the crystal, felt the faint heat in it, and asked, "Have you tried to use this to sneak in?"

The man with the boxing gloves shook his head. "We have already joined the Sun Tribe, so we don't need this stuff. But if you want to go into the warehouse..." He pointed to the tribal camp in the distance. "There are totemists of the 'priest' level stationed near the warehouse. They are likely to see through the disguise."

"But the good news is that the Sun Tribe's main force just left to fight other tribes some time ago, and only a small number of people are left behind."

Lin Yi pondered for a moment and suddenly looked at Bubu Wang.

"Bubu, can your stealth completely block out the fluctuations?"

Bubu Wang tilted his head, as if thinking, then raised his paw to gesture, and shook his head.

"Woof..." (That should be fine.)
"In that case... let's change our thinking."

He looked up at the three contractors and asked, "Do you have any way to create a 'riot' outside the tribe?"

The wizard with glasses and the man with boxing gloves looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

"Remember to share the profits when the time comes."

after an hour.

A violent energy fluctuation suddenly erupted in the jungle on the east side of the Sun Tribe!

"boom--!!"

Flames shot up into the sky, and the remains of several Zerg units could be vaguely seen being blown away!
The totem warriors in the tribe were instantly alerted, and the guards on the watchtower blew the horn.

"Enemy attack! It's the Zerg raiding force!"

The three contractors created the illusion of a "Zerg raid" on the east side of the tribe. At the same time, in the dense forest on the west side of the tribe, Bubuwang took out an item that had been touched by the Zerg Queen in the large Zerg nest in the south to simulate the Zerg Queen's breath.

The warriors of the Sun Tribe quickly gathered, but the high priest wearing colorful feather robes stood high on the altar, his cloudy eyes staring at the dense forest in the west, his skinny fingers unconsciously clenched the bone staff in his hand.

"No... the Zerg in the east is a feint."

"The west is the real threat."

It was obvious that the high priest had detected the aura in the western forest. Although it was hidden very deeply, the high priest was still able to capture the abnormal fluctuations of the aura.

The high priest's sinister eyes swept across the fortifications outside the tribe, and a terrible thought emerged in his mind.

"Could it be that someone betrayed the tribe?"

At this time, the troops of the Sun Tribe had just left the tribe to fight with the Gaozhuo Tribe, because that group of lunatics claimed to have received divine revelation and wanted to seize the holy land that the Sun Tribe had guarded for generations.

But once the Gaozhuo tribe gets any "foreshadowing" or "sign" of the kind, they become a group of extremely crazy people.

"Take out the 'Spear of the Sun'! I want to see which ignorant insect queen dares to attack our tribe when we are at a loss!"

The high priest noticed that there was something strange about this attack. The Zerg have always been straightforward and rarely use this kind of tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west.

Although he had already made a judgment in his heart, the caution accumulated over the years still made the high priest remain somewhat vigilant.

He secretly dispatched half of his elite soldiers to guard the important roads in the camp to prevent any unexpected accidents.

"High Priest, do we need to send someone to the Burning Fire Mountain to ask the chief to come back for help? Given the current situation."

An elder came up to the high priest and asked softly. The situation at the moment was obviously a little unusual.

"Shut up!" The high priest turned around and glanced at the elder's flattering face. "Unless the enemy breaks through the tribal gate, no one is allowed to disturb the chief!"

The elder was trembling all over at the sight, and quickly retreated back to the priests' team with a smile on his face, not daring to say another word. (End of this chapter)
