Chapter 9: Into the Stone Claw
The other three accompanying priests also had serious faces, and they followed closely behind the Prophet and threw themselves into the Stonetalon Mountains.
A few minutes after the four of them disappeared, a dull hoof sound sounded on the way to the road.
The flying smoke was broken by a thick beast, and on the saddle rode a minotaur, the same Tarot who had driven the war Kodomon to chase him.
Before reaching the Stonetalon Mountains, Tarot patted Kodomon on the head. The war beast stopped, bowing its head slightly, allowing Tarot to get off its head smoothly.
Tarot looked around and found that the seer was not here, knowing that the teacher should have already entered, and couldn't help muttering.
He rode the Kodomon, and he didn't want to hide his tracks, just to let the Prophet know that he had heard the content of the mission, so that the teacher could take him into the Stonetalon Mountains.
The minotaurs of the whole army want to fight in the depths of the Stonetalon Mountains, how can Tarot, a hot-blooded calf, avoid vulgarity, and make up his mind to come and see the world.
But Xianjue has already entered, which makes Tarot feel a little difficult.
What the situation was in the Stonetalon Mountains, Tarot didn't know at all. If he didn't follow the seer, Tarot was afraid that he would encounter some danger, and as soon as he entered, he would let the demon shoot to death, wouldn't it be too wrong.
Just as Tarot was hesitating, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air, as if he had been standing here all along, never moving.
The man wore a hood and a pale gray leather coat, with a chin as narrow as a cone and a pale purple skin, all of which were obscured by the shadow cast by the hood.
Tarot was startled, reached out to grab the totem pole behind his waist, and exclaimed, "You!
The hooded man glanced at Tarot and chuckled, "My name is Di Qiao, and I am the senior brother of Xianjue, and I also have a relationship with you. Let's go inside, let's see what's going on in the Stonetalon Mountains. โ
Tarot scratched his head, a little surprised in his heart. Xianjue told him a lot of Zur's teachings, but he didn't say a word about Diqiao. In Tarot's mind, if there really is such an uncle, he should have heard of it.
Di Qiao is obviously not a demon, he is a god of wind elemental sacrifice, saying that he is the senior brother of the seer, and Tarot can't find anything wrong.
"Uncle Diqiao, did you go in to help the teacher?"
Di Qiao smiled noncommittally, "I'm curious about what's going on inside, I want to see it." As for the seer, if I don't help him, he won't die. โ
With that, Di Qiao took the lead in the Stonetalon Mountains. Tarot scratched his head, and had to follow behind Di Qiao.
The four of them walked into the Stone Claw Mountains, but at a distance of only a few tens of meters, they found very obvious traces of battle.
The demon's stumps were scattered to the ground, and the surrounding mountain walls were deeply cut by battle axes and hammers, and at a glance it was the handiwork of five Minotaur guards including Apu.
One of the priests who followed behind Xianjue gasped and exclaimed, "Xianjue, the density of this demon is wrong!"
Xianjue nodded silently, and his eyes swept roughly on the ground, knowing that there were about three thousand low-level demons dead here, all of whom were crushed and killed by Apu and them with absolute strength superiority.
Such a number of demons, in normal times, would require several squads to work together, and it would take a long time to clear them out. Although it didn't seem to pose much of a threat to the five of them, this was only the shallowest area of the Stonetalon Mountains!
Xianjue kept secretly scolding this Apu in his heart, he really didn't know what to do, and he must sue in front of Angus when he goes back this time.
Since Apu and the others needed to move forward in the demon-ridden Stone Claw Mountain Range, the speed could not be too fast, and at first they thought that the four of them would be able to catch up with Apu soon, especially when the demons were all strangled by Apu.
But after walking a distance, I realized that I had taken it for granted.
Although Apu and the others are powerful warriors who have experienced a hundred battles, they can only stare dryly when facing the demon teleportation array. Therefore, there are not many demons left along the way, but the demon teleportation array is stacked on top of each other, making people dare not put their feet.
Xianjue had the heart to leave these demon teleportation arrays alone, and rushed in to find Apu first, but he was really worried. By the time they wanted to come out, if a new demon was teleported to them in the demon teleportation array in the rear, then their group would have to suffer from the enemy on their backs, and they would have to shed their skin if they didn't die.
Considering the two phases, coupled with the divination results of the Great Soul Divination Technique, Xianjue sighed helplessly and shook his head, so he had to slow down his pace and take the three priests beside him to use the Earth Element Sacrifice Technique to eliminate the demon teleportation array along the way.
In this way, Apu's five warriors rushed in front and strangled all the demons along the way to minced meat. Xianjue and the other four followed behind their butts, "admiring" the colorful and choking landscape painting while dismantling the demon teleportation array.
As a result, the priests were no faster than Apu, or even slower. If this trend continues, unless Apu and they encounter some trouble and stop, it will be difficult for the company to find Apu in a short time.
After more than ten minutes, the priests who accompanied him also sensed that something was wrong, and one of them whispered to the seer, "It's too deep...... Why don't I catch up and call them back?"
Xianjue shook his head helplessly, "Don't be, that's Apu, you only had two results in the past." One was taken in by him and rushed forward with him, and the other was cut off by him. None of us alone will end well unless we catch up together. But ......"
Without following the seer's gaze, the rest of the priests knew what he was looking at.
They all shook their heads and sighed, stopped talking, and concentrated on destroying the demon teleportation array on the ground.
I don't know if it's a preconceived illusion or if it's just the way it is. He had always felt that the priests of the Minotaur tribe were much calmer than the warriors, and the difference was evident just by looking at Apu and the priests who were with him.
Now, they felt that their position had reached the middle of the Stonetalon Mountains, and it was only about five minutes away from their target area.
As for Apu, it will only be closer to that area.
That's where the changes first happen. If there is no accident, Fufeng City also sent a team to march towards the central area from the opposite direction, but I don't know where it is at this time.
As far as the Prophet could see, the density of demon corpses had more than tripled. The seer seemed to have become numb to these sights, and the physiological discomfort at first had subsided a lot.
Turning another hillside, Prophet and the three accompanying priests all had their pupils constricted and froze in place.
"Sizzleโ" The sound of gasps sounded in the mouths of the priests.
At the bottom of the hillside, the corpses of three giant demons lay on their backs.
