Surviving the Maze of National Destiny: Hints from the Chinese Characters I Understand

The concrete ground began to crack. Kabu was the first to jump away to avoid it, while Lin Mo did not move because he had already jumped onto Kabu's back.

"Boom... boom!"

The cracks were spreading, reaching a total of 11 points, indicating that the underground labyrinth monster had awakened.

"Bang..." The first spot in front was completely broken open, with soil and rocks flying everywhere, and a large hole with a diameter of 15 meters was suddenly revealed.

"Crackling sounds..." A strange sound, like the friction of some kind of beetle skeleton, came from inside the cave. A pair of huge tentacles emerged from the cave first, with two eyeballs on them, and locked onto Kabu and Lin Mo.

"Lin Mo, it's spying on us! Beat it to a pulp! Let me see what kind of thing you are!" Kabu rushed forward, grabbed a pair of its tentacles, and pulled it outwards.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp..." A terrified sound came from inside the cave. It hadn't expected that it wasn't human, and that those outside were even less human.

Kabu's terrifying power directly pulled the burrowing worm out. It was a 10-meter-long worm covered in a hard shell, with two antennae on its head and its eyes on the antennae.

Lin Mo's Blade of Calamity slashed directly at the Digging Worm's body with all his might.

"Crack!" The carapace shattered, revealing a wound 30 centimeters deep and 1 meter long.

Lin Mo glanced at the opponent's health bar, which had decreased by 20%.

Holy crap! It's a level below me, yet it has such defense. It's got some skills. But as long as it's losing health, it's not a big problem. I still have Kabu.

The ground in the distance also broke open one after another, and the remaining burrowing worms emerged one after another.

The burrowing worm that Lin Mo hit struggled violently, but its strength was clearly inferior to Kabu's. It opened its huge mouth, revealing thousands of sharp teeth. Even more strangely, there was a "cyclone" spinning deep in its throat, like a small tornado.

Lin Mo realized, was this a wind-type attack ability? Just as he was about to warn Kabu to be careful, Kabu, as if on the same wavelength, had already plunged his claws into the vortex and was stirring it wildly.

"Wow! You have bad breath, bad breath! Let me cure you, I'll shove it down your throat!"

The cyclone instantly became chaotic, and green juice gushed from its mouth. The burrowing worm struggled even more fiercely. Lin Mo continued to finish it off, while Kabu continued to stir.

The burrowing worm's health bar was quickly depleted, but seven burrowing worms in the distance had already lined up, their mouths agape, their throats swirling with air at full force. The next second: "Bang bang bang..."

Each burrowing worm spews out a wind blade from its mouth. The force of the spray is so great that it generates a huge recoil, causing each burrowing worm's head to snap back the instant it fires the wind blade.

Lin Mo reacted swiftly, swinging his sword straight ahead: "Moonlight...Slash!"

A blade of light, 4 meters in diameter, swept across the front.

Kabu crossed his claws and swung them fiercely at the incoming wind blade, shouting, "Sky-Splitting Claw!"

Lin Mo: "...Hey! Where did you get the Sky-Splitting Claw? It's really rude of you to shout out attack moves like that!"

Kabu: "Being cool is all that matters! The battle is awesome!"

"Bang bang bang..." The two sides clashed and canceled each other out, and the huge power generated stirred up dust and smoke all over the scene, making it almost impossible to see each other.

The seven burrowing worms took a deep breath, opened their mouths, and swirled their breath, preparing for another attack.

Suddenly! A giant toad burst forth from the dust in front of them, brandishing its sharp claws and slashing down with a curse. "Is this never going to end? Louis XVI is joking, there has to be an end to it, right?"

With a series of splattering sounds, Kabu interrupted the attacks of several burrowing worms by wielding his claws in unison. Lin Mo also leaped off Kabu's back, wielding his sword with both hands, and slashed!

Lin Mo and Kabu were of one mind and worked together seamlessly. They both knew that the other's wind blades were powerful and they couldn't let them keep spewing nonsense like internet trolls.

Therefore, Lin Mo and Kabu chose to engage in melee combat, resulting in a flurry of sword flashes, claw marks flying, and the deafening sounds of intense collisions.

[Chinese netizens: Holy crap! Are level 11 monsters really that strong? I didn't realize it before!]

[A Chinese netizen commented: Even Lin Ge and Kabu are having some trouble. I feel like Lin Ge's maze is a completely different version from everyone else's.]

[A netizen from India: Is it possible? It's Lin Mocai? His level 12 strength is no longer enough to deal with so many labyrinth creatures.]

[A netizen from Pakistan: LOL, even tofu has brains (tofu pudding), but you don't. Lin Mo encountered level 11 monsters on the third floor of the maze, don't you want to know why? So many explorers in the maze world before, who encountered monsters higher than level 8 in the dungeon? Only Lin Mo, so do you understand now?]

[A netizen from India: Holy crap, now that you mention it, I understand! So the monsters in the maze can visit each other's rooms? Lin Mo encountered monsters from deeper levels of the maze?]

[Chinese netizens: 666.]

[Netizens from the Coldest Country: Help! How can he be so naturally stupid?!]

In the scene, Lin Mo and Kabu are engaged in a fierce battle with seven level 11 burrowing worms, all of which have knife wounds and scratches on their bodies.

Suddenly... a burrowing worm stood up. This was a 10-meter-long burrowing worm. Even with part of its body on the ground, it was still two stories tall. It opened its mouth wide and launched a top-down attack on Lin Mo's head.

Lin Mo was currently engaged in a fierce battle with the other two burrowing worms beside him and had no time to spare. If nothing unexpected happened, his head would be eaten. Although Lin Mo had already attacked in his alloy armor form, it was certain that he would lose 20% of his health.

"Let me do it!" Kabu suddenly flung away the burrowing bug that was entangled around him and rushed over.

But the burrowing worms wouldn't give up, and they bit Kabu's arms with their huge mouths. So Kabu charged forward dragging the two burrowing worms along with him. They were really strong.

But it was too busy to use its hands, so it opened its mouth wide and bit the burrowing worm that was biting down from above.

Hmm... it felt more like a kiss.

The burrowing bug's mouth was ultimately not as big as Kabu's, and Kabu completely enveloped its mouth.

Lin Mo: Holy crap!

[Chinese netizen: Holy crap, can you imagine what it feels like to kiss your girlfriend and end up kissing her nose?]

[Chinese netizens: Hahaha, that's so vivid!]

[Chinese netizens: Kabu is awesome!]

Kabu forcefully shook his head, sending the burrowing worm flying more than ten meters away. Lin Mo also broke free from the entanglement of the two burrowing worms beside him. The two stood back to back in a guard position, while the seven burrowing worms around them surrounded them again, eyeing them intently.

Lin Mo scanned all the burrowing worms on the battlefield and already had a plan in mind: He couldn't afford to fight the seven worms like this; it would be a disadvantage.

Take out the two enemies with low health bars first; even if you take some damage, you can end the battle faster.

The two lowest ones, well, those are the ones. One has 41% left, and the other has 52% left.

The two, one human and one toad, were of one mind and charged straight at each other.

Lin Mo calculated that once he killed them, his swordsmanship would reach level 20, and he wouldn't have to suffer so much in the next battle.
