As he spoke, the fat man unpacked his backpack, took out his gas mask, and put it on his head!

The three ignored the fat man and instead stared intently at the lake.

Something was rushing rapidly towards the shore. It was heading straight for where the four people were!

Su Mo immediately shouted, "Disperse quickly..."

The three of them instinctively started running separately.

Su Mo used his light-footed skill to quickly dodge to the side, while simultaneously loading a bullet.

"Roar!"

A giant, snake-like beast leaped out of the water, roared, and rammed its head directly into the spot where the four people had just been standing.

Chapter 80: The Huo Clan's Immortal Worm

"boom!"

The giant beast flew out, and the spot where the four people had been standing was instantly shattered. Even a rock the size of a man-made hill was smashed to pieces.

"Roar!"

The giant beast roared, its voice deafening and reaching the heavens.

The fat man drew his submachine gun and looked at the suddenly appearing giant beast.

This giant beast has no eyes, no nose, only a mouth shaped like a flower petal, and looks extremely ferocious and terrifying.

The fat man was terrified, his eyes wide. "What is this thing? Why does it look so eerie?"

Old Hu pulled out a submachine gun and fired. "Never mind what it is..."

After saying that, Old Hu opened fire with precision on the beast's head. "Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!"

Sparks flew from the giant beast's body, and bullets fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Su Mo shouted, "These are Huo's Undying Worms, impervious to blades and spears, extremely difficult to kill! Fatty, use grenades!"

"Da da da da da!"

Seeing the Huo Clan's Undying Worm rushing towards Old Hu, Su Mo quickly fired a shot to stop it.

Holy crap!

Old Hu also saw the Huo's Immortal Worm rushing towards him, and quickly used the artificial hill as leverage to leap to the side.

No sooner had Old Hu left than Huo's Undying Worm slammed into the spot where Old Hu had just been standing.

"boom!"

The artificial rockery exploded, sending stones flying everywhere!

The Huo Clan Immortal Worm, like a wild beast out of control, shook its head and then turned to charge at Shirley Yang again.

The speed was astonishing!

"Staff Officer Yang..."

The fat man was holding several hand grenades. "Watch out!"

The Huo family's immortal worm remained firmly attached to the group. The fat man hadn't found a suitable opportunity to throw his grenade.

"Da da da da da da da!"

Shirley Yang's marksmanship was no less than that of Old Hu, who had served in the army. She fired a burst of bullets at the head of the charging Huo Di Undying Worm.

"Da da da da!"

Those bullets were like tickling the worms of the Horaceae family, having no effect whatsoever.

Sherry Yang's face trembled, and she felt a little flustered.

"not good…"

Seeing Huo Di's Undying Worm rushing towards Shirley Yang, Su Mo used his light footwork to fly out, his body turning into a blur, and appeared directly beside Shirley Yang.

Clang!

Su Mo drew the Crimson Sky Sword from behind him and swung it swiftly at the body of the Huo Clan Undying Worm.

"Shh!"

Sword light flashed, and the incredibly sharp blade pierced through the defenses of the Huo Clan Undying Worm.

"Woo~"

The Huo Clan Undying Worm let out a miserable cry, and Su Mo pulled Xue Li Yang to maintain a safe distance from the Huo Clan Undying Worm.

"Are you okay?"

"fine!"

Sherry Yang shook her head.

"go to hell!"

Seeing that no one was approaching the Huo Clan's Undying Worm, the fat man seized the opportunity and threw out two hand grenades with lightning speed.

"Boom!"

The grenade exploded directly on the head of the Ho's Undead Worm.

"Buzz!!"

The Huo Clan Undying Worm roared at the group, then spat out a cloud of red mist.

Now, everyone became cautious and on guard.

Just when everyone thought the giant beast was going to fight to the death, the Huo Clan Immortal Worm turned around and escaped into the water by taking advantage of the red smoke.

Although everyone was somewhat surprised, they were mostly relieved.

Even a grenade couldn't kill it. Fighting this behemoth head-on might not necessarily lead to any good outcome!

After seeing that the Huo Clan's Undying Worm had left and the red smoke had dissipated, the four of them also came out.

Su Mo asked, "Is everyone alright?"

All three shook their heads.

Shirley Yang smiled at the fat man and said, "Not bad, Fatty, you chased the monster away!"

Old Hu also praised, "Fatty, well done!"

The fat man laughed, extremely proud: "Hehe, that's right, who is Fatty? Not only is he a good shot, but he can also throw grenades without any problem."

The fat man looked at Su Mo, "Brother Su...you...what kind of insect did you say it was just now?"

Su Mo: "The Huo Clan's Undying Worm!"

Shirley Yang was shocked. "The Huo Clan's Undying Worm? This is the Huo Clan's Undying Worm?"

The fat man asked in confusion, "What? Staff Officer Yang, you know about the Huo Clan's Immortal Worm?"

Shirley Yang nodded and said, "The Huo's Immortal Worm, also known as the Yu Mantis Worm, has ancestors that can be traced back to the Cambrian period hundreds of millions of years ago, the time of the origin of invertebrates. At that time, apart from insects, all other animals were still in a low stage of evolution!"

The fat man disliked this long-winded explanation, since he couldn't understand it, and interrupted, "No, Chief of Staff Yang. Just say it's this Huo Clan Immortal Worm. Don't mention its ancestors."

"Shut up!"

Old Hu looked at the fat man and shouted.

The fat man awkwardly shrank back, listened quietly to the story, and dared not say a word.

Shirley Yang continued, "This Ho's Undying Worm is a peculiar creature with a reticulated nervous system. It lacks a central nervous system; its physical tissues and nerves are separate. In nature, they have no natural enemies unless you swallow them whole and digest them completely with their wing fluids!"

"Otherwise, it can still survive as long as a part of the neural network is left behind."

The fat man asked, "If the Huo Clan Undying Worm is invincible and so hard to kill, why did it run away just now?"

Su Mo shook his head: "I don't know either. It probably went back to heal its wounds. Although it's hard to kill, it still feels pain. First I slashed it, and then you stabbed it. It's probably a little dizzy!"

Old Hu was worried because the Huo Clan's Undying Worm was still alive. He said, "We'd better hurry up and leave. Since that Huo Clan's Undying Worm went back to heal its wounds, it will definitely come back for revenge after it's healed. These worms are hard to kill, and it would be troublesome if it got on us..."

"Okay, we..."

Before Shirley Yang could finish speaking, Su Mo interrupted, "We can't leave. The people from Zhelong Village are catching up..."

Su Mo had already heard a lot of footsteps, and they were getting closer and closer, probably drawn here by the gunshots.

The fat man was furious. "Are these people crazy? They're still chasing us even in this state, and they even dared to chase us all the way here. They should really see what the Huo family's immortal worm is like..."

Shirley Yang looked at Su Mo and said, "What should we do? We can't keep being chased like this!"

Su Mo said, "It's alright. We'll spare them. But the tomb-guarding mechanisms won't. Once you get in here, it's all about how tough your life is."

"They're here, guns loaded, hiding behind rocks..."

"it is good!"

Besides Su Mo standing outside, Old Hu, Fatty, and Shirley Yang were hiding behind different artificial hills, armed and on guard.

Half a minute later, a group of people from Zhelong Village appeared before the four of them.

The two sides were about fifty meters apart, maintaining a safe distance.

Looking at Su Mo ahead, Zewa shouted, "You four have trespassed into forbidden territory! Come back with us immediately!"

The clan chief said, "Surrender now, or be executed on the spot!"

Su Mo listened to their conversation.

The first sentence was fine, but the second half of Su Mo's sentence was filled with cold light and killing intent as he said in a cold voice, "You still came after me. Since you've come looking for death, then I won't stop you. Heh, you'll regret this soon!"

Zha Long, gun in hand, shouted, "Stop talking nonsense. Surrender now, or you'll be making enemies of the entire Zhelong Village!"

Chapter 81: The Harvest

"Stop with the nonsense. Surrender now, or you'll be making enemies of the entire Zhelong Village!"

The entire Zhalong Village is at odds!

Hearing this, Su Mo laughed in exasperation. "Haha, you all think too highly of yourselves. Zhelong Village, Zhelong Village, you've successfully annoyed me..."
