Volume 1: The Ritual of the Abyss Chapter 30: Concealment
"If we are hostile, then do you think you can still live?" Chen Mo said with a smile on his face.
The man shuddered.
Indeed, if they were enemies, they would have died the moment they were discovered.
So, he endured the pain of the wound and asked, "What about ......you?" Who the hell is it?"
"We?" said Graylers and Chen Mo smiled at each other.
"We're scholars who came here on a field trip, and my name is Ruby. Chen Mo introduced himself.
"My name is Biggins. Greiles said.
"Scholar?" the man looked surprised, how could a scholar be in such a place?
"What, is it a surprise?" asked Chen Mo.
"Uh...... No, haha. The man smiled, his eyes a little evasive.
But this smile seemed to pull at the wound, and the pain made the man breathe inhale.
Seeing this, Chen Mo stepped forward, half-squatted down, and said, "Looking at you, it seems that you are seriously injured." ”
"It's okay. The man replied in a cold sweat.
At this time, his face was already pale, and he seemed to have lost too much blood.
"It seems that you need help?" Chen Mo stepped forward and asked.
"Don't ......" subconsciously, he has to refuse. But after thinking about his current state, if he doesn't get effective treatment, even if he can survive, he will be left with serious injuries.
So, he changed his words and said, "If you can, can you help me get the medicine in my pocket." ”
As he spoke, he made a gesture with his eyes: there was a backpack on his waist.
Because, in his waist and abdomen, there is a huge wound, even a simple turn is very likely to lead to secondary injury, thus aggravating the injury.
Therefore, at this time, he could not treat the wound at all.
"Is this it?" Chen Mo followed the man's gesture and took out a small navy blue package from his waist.
"Yes. The man nodded, then said, "In this package...... There is a grey bottle...... It's a hemostat, the white one...... It's a bandage. ”
"Okay. After taking the medicine, Chen Mo gave the man the medicine.
Open the bottle and pour the powder over the wound. In an instant, a sharp pain struck, causing the man to grit his teeth, and he scratched a mark on the turf on the ground.
And Grelles was not idle, and while being alert to the situation around him, he also crouched down and started chatting with the man to help him stay awake.
Looking at the huge wound that could almost be seen in the internal organs, Greiles asked, "What have happened to you, so badly wounded?"
"My name is... Mugwort...... Hua, is... A... The adventurer ......" and the man began to speak, "This time ...... It's to perform a mission, but I didn't expect it...... I actually encountered the Armor Splitter...... After a few rounds, I was hit hard...... And the beast was scared by me. ”
After speaking, Chen Mo also took medicine and put on a bandage.
"Your injury is really serious, although you have taken good medicine, but your current injury is still a little serious, do you want us to take you back again?" Chen Mo asked.
"This ......" Ai Hua's eyes flashed with hesitation, and then said: "I can't seem to move now, please let me rest here for a while, and when I recover a little, it's not too late to leave." As for you, if you're in a hurry, you can go back first, I'll be fine. ”
"Oh, is it really possible?" asked Chen Mo.
Aihua smiled and said, "It's okay, since I can come, I can go back." You know, I've done this more than once. ”
"Well, okay. Chen Mo nodded and was about to leave.
But halfway through, he suddenly came back and said, "I'm still not at ease, I'm not in a hurry, or I'll stay and take care of you, and I'll have a companion when I go back." ”
Seeing this, Ai Hua was about to refuse, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Chen Mo: "Don't refuse us." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ai Hua looked left and right, hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Since this is the case, then thank you." ”
But that expression didn't look like a happy one.
"Well, it's okay, you can rest here now, and I'll go around and check the situation. Greiles said.
Then he glanced at Chen Mo: This kid, there is a problem!
Then he jumped up and left.
Chen Mo and Ai Hua were left in place.
"How do you feel now?" asked Chen Mo.
"Much better. Aihua replied with a smile.
With the help of hemostats, his wound was also scabbed with blood at this time, and with the help of bandages, he had stopped bleeding at this moment.
"That's good. Chen Mo smiled and said, "But in this case, you can still save your life, I have to say, your life is quite hard." ”
"Haha, yes, it seems that God doesn't want to take me in. Aihua also smiled.
It only seemed that he had relaxed his vigilance against Chen Mo.
But Chen Mo knew in his heart that this was just an appearance, although he was already trying his best to hide it, his eyes exposed everything.
And Graylers seems to have seen this, saying that he was going to investigate the surrounding situation, but in fact he was looking for information.
What a vile lie.
You must know that although this demonic beast has great strength, its leather armor is strong. But the action is also very clumsy, how can a person who has the ability to come here not be able to escape?
So, it's most likely an excuse.
"Yes, it seems that Your Excellency is also an atmospheric carrier. It is said that if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future. You said yes, right?" Chen Mo said with a smile.
"Hmm. Aihua nodded, and a look of happiness appeared on his face.
"I just don't know what kind of mission Your Excellency is carrying out to come to such a deep place. It seems that this reward must not be low, right?" Chen Mo asked as if intentionally or unintentionally.
"Uh......"
Then I saw Aihua shaking his head helplessly. Said: "This time it's a loss." was disturbed by this armor-splitting beast, and the task was not completed, and he almost burped. ”
"Yes? That's a pity. Chen Mo still kept a smile on the surface. But he said in his heart: I'm afraid it's more than that, right?
Because at the moment when Chen Mo asked that sentence, he noticed that Ai Hua's eyes were dodging.
So, Chen Mo said again: "Then is there still a chance? If we can, we will help you." ”
"Uh...... No. Aihua refused: "Maybe I have nothing to do with it." And let it go. ”
After saying that, he laughed dryly twice, and began to say again: "I originally planned to wash my hands after completing this task." But I didn't expect ......"
"Is that so? Then I should help you. Chen Mo said.
"No!" Aihua refused again.
This time, the tone was a little excited.
And he himself realized this, so he hurriedly added: "Uh...... I mean, it's my own business, and since it failed, it was providential. If you can't force it, forget it. ”
“...... Oh, that's fine. Chen Mo nodded.
And just then, Greiles suddenly returned.
I saw that he was showing a panicked expression and said, "Ahead...... There is a situation!"
"Is there a situation?!" Chen Mo also showed a surprised expression.
Ai Hua also showed a look of panic: "Could it be that Armor Splitting Beast? Damn, you must kill it!"
But Chen Mo didn't seem to hear it, so he hurriedly asked, "What's going on!?"
"Well, stop talking nonsense, come with me!" said Graylers, with a hurried expression.
"Okay!" Seeing this, Chen Mo didn't talk nonsense, so he went up even more.
Before leaving, Chen Mo didn't forget to say: "Your Excellency Ai Hua, you rest here first, and I'll go back with him." ”
I saw Aihua nodding: "Okay, you guys go, I don't care." You have to be careful!"
Then, Chen Mo left with Grayles.
But this departure is a scene played by Graylers and Chen Mo.
After confirming that they were far away, the two stopped.
In front of them were corpses.
"This is!?" Chen Mo looked surprised.
I heard Grellers say, "I came to this place just now, and I saw these people. Seems to be someone from the Church of Shadows. ”
"Shadow Church?" Chen Mo was startled. How could they be here.
"Looks like they're looking for something else. Greiles said.
Stuff?
At this time, Chen Mo suddenly thought of Ai Hua.
"Could it be him?!"
"Quite possibly. Grayles nodded.
After all, in such a place, it is very unexpected to suddenly meet a human being.
But that's not to say it's impossible, it's just that the probability is too small.
Plus those suspicious performances of him. Inexplicable hostility, lying...... All kinds of signs suggested: he must have something to hide!
Now, the Shadow Church has appeared.
This shows that in the midst of this, there must be a connection!
"Did you just say anything?" asked Grayles.
"Yes!" Chen Mo nodded and said, "When he talked about the 'task', he seemed to be a little excited, but I don't know what it is. ”
"You say...... Is he from the Adventurers' Guild? and came here to find out about that......" Grelles guessed.
Before Greiles could finish speaking, he was denied by Chen Mo: "Absolutely not!"
Chen Mo may not be sure about other things, but at this time, Chen Mo is very sure.
Because there are only a few people who know about this matter at present, and that group of people will not choose to send someone to scare the snake at this time. So, he must not be from that side.
"That'...... Could it be that he's also from the Shadow Church?" said Grayles.
"Maybe ......" Chen Mo looked at the corpses in front of him, and he couldn't be sure for a while.
"Unfortunately, there is too little information available right now. Grayles shook his head.
"yes. Chen Mo also sighed: "He is too cautious, and I can't directly expose it." After all, if it's someone from the Shadow Church, once a fish is killed, it will be troublesome. ”
"yes. Greiles was also in distress.
After all, this is not a war with troops, but it is not reckless.
And just when both of them were distressed, Chen Mo suddenly had an idea.
"I've got a way!"
"What do you say?" said Graylers.
"That's ...... Let's go back!" Chen Mo said: "But instead of going back directly, first find a hidden place to hide first, and then observe his reaction when he is alone." After a long time, he will definitely show his feet. ”
"Well, that makes sense!" Graylers nodded, agreeing with Chen Mo's idea. But he also expressed his doubts: "But what if he stubbornly fights with us? ”
"It's easy to do......"
Then, I saw Chen Mo take out a few disc-shaped objects.
"Here you go, around here. ”
"What is this?" Graylers looked at the thing Chen Mo handed to him with a puzzled expression.
He'd seen it before, and it seemed to be called a "time bomb", and it was quite powerful.
Then, I heard Chen Mo say, "This is a brick." Throw bricks and lead the way!"
After Chen Mo's little bit, Greiles also understood Chen Mo's thoughts.
"Oh, I see. ”
followed Chen Mo and put those discs on the ground one by one.
But it's not a mess, every point has been calculated, and it is necessary to play this scene in the most accurate way.
......
After doing this, the two also hurried back.
After returning to the original location, he immediately found a hidden place and hid it.
At the same time, in order to improve the fault tolerance rate of the plan, Chen Mo also took out a stalker.
At this moment, even some high-level thieves could not perceive their presence.
And for Aihua, it's even more so.
But he was much more cautious than Graylers and Chen Mo imagined.
As early as when Chen Mo and Graylers had just left, he secretly probed the surrounding situation.
No trace of Graylers or Chen Mo was found.
But for the sake of safety, he also considered whether it would be because of the difference in strength that they would not be able to detect even if they were around.
So, during this time, he has been lying in place very honestly.
At this moment, he was looking forward to Chen Mo and the others encountering that group of madmen, and then he would reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Now, it's all about being patient.
but they do not know in the shadows. Two of them had already calculated him to death.
"This kid is cautious enough. Greiles said.
"yes, so at this point, it's up to those 'bricks'. Chen Mo said.
The voice fell.
About a kilometer away from them, a series of violent explosions rang out.
It is the source of this that is the bombs that Chen Mo arranged before.
After a series of specific chain explosions, the bombs looked from a distance as if someone had fought there.
"You're such a good thing. ”
"Just listen to it. Chen Mo replied. "Next, it's up to you to see what kind of jade these bricks can lead. ”
Sure enough, after the explosion sounded, Aihua first panicked, and then rejoiced.
The mouths went on and they shouted, "Great, great! Those two must have met them." But can they beat them?
No matter! I should run? yes, I should run! I can't get caught. This treasure can only be mine!
As for them, let them go to hell together!"
Then, I saw Aihua stand up as if she were jumping. It turned out that those wounds had already recovered during the period of rest.
What was in that bottle was not an ordinary hemostatic agent! And everything before was just to deceive Chen Mo and the others.
And now, all camouflage has been removed.
But none of this is what Chen Mo and Grellers are concerned about.
Because in the same place where he was lying, there was a strange box buried!
