184 In Exchange
Just as Yang Lin had said, this reagent could attract a large number of insect monsters. It was much more practical than searching for insect nests everywhere.
“This thing is not very useful to us, and there are very few opportunities to use it. We originally used this reagent to lure away the insects in the cave, so we could enter safely. However, when we left the cave, we unluckily encountered the returning insects, so we were caught in a huge disaster.”
Yang Lin explained awkwardly, but Ye Fan did not listen to the reason at all. Instead, he sized up this reagent.
“How many more do you have?”
!!
“There are only these two left.”
Only two… Ye Fan fell into deep thought.
Considering the range and effect, two was enough. If it wasn’t enough, he would at most waste time going back to the Adventurer’s Organization to exchange for some. With this reagent, his hunting efficiency on the plains would definitely increase greatly.
Ye Fan nodded and took the box, pointing at the insect’s corpse.
“I won’t take yours for nothing. You can choose any materials that dropped. Just treat it as an exchange.”
When Yang Lin and the others heard this, they were instantly overjoyed. Although these Steel Beetles and Mystic Iron Beetles couldn’t give out any big treasures, they were all Rank 5 to 6 insects. They would definitely have some valuable materials on them.
Moreover, there were a lot of insects, more than a thousand in total. Even if they couldn’t collect all the materials, they could still exchange a portion for a lot of money. Therefore, in comparison, the value of the reagent was far lower than these materials.
Under everyone’s joy, they did not forget to thank Ye Fan. Ye Fan only waved his hand and did not take it seriously.
Ye Fan only had one bag now, and there was a limit to what he could carry inside, so the things he wanted to bring had to be carefully selected. Rank-5 and Rank-6 materials were not worth his attention, it was better to exchange them for reagents.
After a while, all the pets came back from the cave. The insects inside and the Rank-7 queen were all dealt with.
After knowing the situation, Ye Fan did not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Yang Lin and the others, he planned to find a place to test the effect of this reagent.
In the dim cave, there was the sound of a water ball suddenly exploding. An incomparably precious Insect Queen’s egg fell to the ground and shattered, spilling out a pool of liquid.
The instigator of this matter was a thin man in a black robe. He didn’t look at the ground with a cold gaze. Instead, he looked at the demonic human beside the corpse.
“This is the 30th one.”
“I’ll probably be done after killing a few more.”
“We still have to try our best to find a large-scale insect cave. We’ll have to trouble Sir Ferman next.”
The demonic human called Ferman stretched his neck and threw away the half-eaten worm with a disdainful expression.
“That’s a small matter. Just keep your promise and prepare 30 Rank-6 Beast Tamers for me.”
A smile suddenly appeared on the thin man’s face, making him look extremely sinister.
“Mr. Ferman, don’t worry. There are many Rank-6 Beast Tamers in the Cangnan Plain. As long as you endure for another day, you’ll definitely have a feast.”
“Then I’ll wait and see.”
Ferman licked his lips as if he had recalled the taste of a human Beast Tamer.
Suddenly, he frowned.
“The bugs are here!”
The man raised his arm and snapped his fingers. Then, with a bang, the ground cracked, and a huge battle pet that looked like an earthworm crawled out.
The pet shook its body and swallowed the man and the demonic human with its bloody mouth. Then, it burrowed into the ground and disappeared without a trace. The cave returned to normal in an instant.
Not long after, footsteps sounded. The insects had already returned to the cave. After seeing the corpses and the broken egg, the insects roared angrily and completely went crazy. Their voices echoed in the cave.
…
It was very simple to find an experiment location. After looking around in the sky, Ye Fan soon found a suitable location.
On a hill more than ten meters high, there was a slope of about 30 degrees on all sides and it spread for twenty to thirty meters. There was nothing to hide in the surroundings. At a glance, it was extremely empty. It was the best place to hunt insects.
After confirming that this place was his experimental site, Ye Fan took out a test tube from the box and opened the cap. The green liquid in the bottle was continuously decreasing, evaporating into gas that spread in all directions.
Ye Fan watched quietly from beginning to end. After the liquid in the bottle dissipated, he threw it away.
“A test tube should be able to attract insects about five kilometers away.”
The hill he chose was deep in the plains. The lowest level of the monsters wandering around was Rank-4, and there were many Rank-5 to Rank-6. As long as he could attract thousands of them, this reagent would not be in vain.
Not long after, roars came from afar, and the sound interrupted Ye Fan’s thoughts. He looked up and saw densely packed insects rushing towards him.
As they got closer and closer, he suddenly realized that the movements and appearance of these insects were different from usual. They seemed to have gone crazy.
Was it because of pheromones that the insects were so fast? He smiled and summoned all his pets.
Apart from Anissa and Rose, the other four pets were in charge of their own directions. The skeleton waved its bone knife and summoned undead. Many intermediate Rank-6 undead appeared beside it.
Little Nine also took action. It directly used the Clone Technique and separated three versions of itself with the same appearance. Fox Fire and spirit talismans appeared around their bodies with their hands clasped in front of their chests. There were also some special patterns that could be used at any time.
The flames beside the Duke of Hellfire had already spread out and it activated the Red Forbidden Zone. The Firmament King descended from the sky. His body was like a mountain peak, blocking the path to the hill. Lightning flashed around him, and he was also prepared to attack. Rose immediately activated her buff skill to support her teammates.
These insects had all been lured here by pheromones. Now, they were already within a hundred meters of the hill. There were quite a number of pets of different levels, but there was a huge black mass gathering here from all directions.
Seeing that the targets were coming, the four pets were ready to fight at any time.
Not long after, the battle was about to begin. Screams resounded through the clouds and roars came from all directions.
Ye Fan looked around and sighed in his heart that the effects of the tubes were indeed amazing. Just the insects that had been lured over numbered three to four thousand, and half of them were Rank-4 and above. This effect was already very good.
Not far away, other insects kept joining the battle. It could be imagined that after the battle ended, the growth of his pets would increase greatly.
