Chapter 415: Temptation No. 73
After hearing the words of the grass ghost, my heart trembled, the person who attacked the bronze tree turned out to be the Devourer?
Could it be A?
A's strength is very strong, at least there is the strength of the grandmaster, maybe, a few points stronger than the grandmaster, and it is possible for the grandmaster in the later stage!
However, although A is strong, with her personal ability, she will never be able to break through the bronze tree, and even make the grass ghost so urgent.
Could it be that the Devourer who attacked the Bronze Tree was not A, or that included A, and then there were the rest of the Devourers?
And, why did the Devourers attack the Bronze Tree HQ? Is it simply to hunt the slot machine owners, or is it what they want from the Bronze Tree?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but swallow and spat at the mouth, and then stopped lingering and quickly rushed to the corridor at the back of the conference hall.
I ran all the way through the corridor, and after about ten minutes, I came to the forbidden place of the bronze tree, the place where the essence blood was produced, but to my surprise, there were many people gathered here at this moment, these people were all dressed in blood-colored dragons, wearing grimace masks, and the person at the head was also marked with the word 73 on the blood-colored dragon, which was obviously number 73.
He looked at the number 85 on my chest and asked, "Number 85?"
"That's right!" I nodded, then asked, "What's going on, Devourer, why are you attacking HQ?"
"It's not clear yet!" he shook his head, and then said: "But the essence blood must be transported away as soon as possible, these essence blood, but the headquarters has worked hard for several months to accumulate, is used to open the passage to the burial land, if it falls into the hands of the devourer, then the burial land will not be able to open, at that time, whether it is you and me, or the rest of the rudder brothers, will lose the opportunity of this trial." ”
"I understand!" I nodded, then said, "Take me to the blood bank!"
"Good!" he nodded, then turned around and led me towards the blood bank, while the rest of the group parted ways and made way for the two of us.
I frowned when I saw this, at this moment, the bronze tree was attacked by the Devourer, the enemy of life and death, why didn't these people go to fight, but stay here?
Could it be that they are guarding the essence and blood? Or are these people not fighting at all?
No. 73 seemed to see through what I was thinking, and said in a deep voice, "They are all non-combatants, and on weekdays, they are only responsible for the production of essence blood, but after you take the essence blood away, they will also participate in the battle." ”
I nodded, then turned my head and looked at number 73 quietly.
No. 73 is very mysterious, he has never appeared in public at the Bronze Tree's meetings, and since I joined the Bronze Tree, I have only met him twice, and the rest of the people may have never seen this person, only heard the legend that his essence blood is SSS-level.
For No. 73, I feel curious from the bottom of my heart, because I feel that this person must have the same secret hidden in his body as me. I even wondered if he was going to be one step ahead of me and infiltrate the undercover agent of the Bronze Tree.
Commander Zhao once told me that when he met the undercover agent codenamed 'Shadow', he said the code, and after entering the essence blood bank for a while, there were only two of us left, should I say the code and test him?
was thinking about it with his head down, when he suddenly heard No. 73 say, "The essence blood bank has arrived!"
I paused when I heard this, and when I looked up, I saw that what appeared in front of me was a large black iron door, and the big iron door was still locked, and the lock was not an ordinary lock, but an extremely thick plant rhizome, which should have been locked by the grass ghost himself.
"This lock...... How are we going to open it?" I asked, glancing back at Number 73. But when he heard this, he smiled and said, "I naturally have a way to open it." However, before opening it, I must remind you that the essence blood in this essence blood bank is not a small amount, after opening, you must use the fastest speed to load the essence blood into the space ring, if the speed is slow, by someone with a heart to take advantage of the void, or by the devourers lurking around, then we will not be able to eat and walk around, when the time comes, just wait to receive the wrath of the headquarters elders!"
I nodded and said, "I understand!"
"Good!" he took a deep breath, and then came to the big iron gate, and stretched his middle finger to the root of the plant.
When his fingers approached the rhizome of the plant, the rhizome of the plant, which was originally coiled on the iron door, suddenly wriggled, and at the top, a sharp and thin one, like a silver needle, and like a straw or something, and then, I heard a 'whoosh', but it was the thing that pierced directly into No. 73's middle finger.
When the thing pierced, it immediately began to suck blood, giving people the feeling that the thing was like a mosquito's large mouthparts, and at this moment, with the blood of 73 being sucked in, the roots and stems of the plant turned all blood-red.
I frowned when I saw this, and said in my heart that the unlocking method of this lock is really special, and it actually needs to inhale human blood, and I estimate that this inhaled human blood should also be a specific person.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that this No. 73 has won the trust of the grass ghost or the shadow boss!
At this time, I heard a 'boom', but the roots of the plants all broke and fell to the ground.
"Whew......" No. 73 let out a sigh of relief, then looked at me and said, "Okay, push open the door!"
I nodded, and then I walked to the iron door, stretched out my hand, and pushed it hard.
I heard a 'squeak', and with the sound sounded, the big iron door was also pushed open by me, almost the moment the iron door was pushed open, there was a white cold air diffused from the essence blood bank, I raised my hand and fanned it, and then walked in with No. 73.
Although I had been mentally prepared in advance, when I actually entered the essence blood bank and saw the amount of essence blood in the essence blood bank, I couldn't help but feel shocked, and my eyes were full of shock.
"This ......" I widened my eyes,, there was so much essence blood in this essence blood bank, they were all packed into containers, neatly placed together, and as far as the eye could see, there was no edge to be seen. The most conservative estimate is that there must be at least tens of thousands of bottles of essence blood here!
'Gollum!'
I couldn't help but swallow and spat at the mouth, and then muttered, "So much essence blood, this, what kind of place is this burial demon land, how can it need so much essence blood to open the passage?"
"Legend has it that the Demon Burial Land is buried with a Devourer with extremely high essence blood purity, and that Devourer is not only extremely pure in essence blood, but also beyond what you and I can imagine, and the Demon Burial Land is a small world created by the Devourer, which has its own world and has its own operating rules, and the Devourer has hunted countless slot machine owners during his lifetime, and almost all of the slot machine owners of those slot machine owners have been abandoned there!" No. 73 opened his mouth and said in a deep voice: " And those ownerless slot machines are the opportunity for us to go to the burial demon land, as long as we get enough slot machines, then, we can get the chance to win the lottery compulsorily, and when the time comes, we can draw whatever we want in the slot machine, elixirs, talisman beasts, and even top exercises, you can draw them!"
He chuckled when he said this, then turned to look at me and said, "Put the essence blood into the space ring!"
"Hmm!" I nodded, then stepped forward, raised my palm, and said silently, "Receive!"
After seeing such a huge amount of essence blood, I was worried that the dragon pattern ring would not fit, but to my surprise, the dragon pattern ring was like a bottomless pit, just in an instant, all the essence blood was included, and so much essence blood was included, the dragon pattern ring did not change at all, and even the importance did not increase!
"There are a total of 20 tons of essence blood here, after bottling, a total of 40,000 bottles, each bottle is about a catty, in the middle of the transportation, you can use these essence blood, but do not consume too much, after arriving in the imperial capital, the presbyterian council will send someone to pick you up!" he said that he took out an identity tag from his body and handed it to me, saying: "This is an identity tag, you take it, as long as you enter the imperial capital, the people of the presbyterian church will sense this token, and they will judge your identity by virtue of the token, so no matter what, this token cannot be lost!"
I nodded, and then took the token, and found that the token was engraved with a huge bronze tree, which was vividly depicted, with huge branches and solid dragon-like plant rhizomes coiled on the entire token, making the token look both ancient and full of power.
"This is a teleportation capsule, the location has been set up for you, and the Fire Maiden will be waiting for you there!" No. 73 said, but I frowned when I heard his words: "The Fire Maiden is waiting for me? What do you mean, is it the Fire Maiden who wants to travel all the way from me to the Imperial Capital to transport essence blood?"
"Yes!" he nodded and said, "This time the Devourer's attack on the headquarters was too sudden, and the Grass Ghost Lord and the Shadow Lord speculated that these Devourers were most likely coming for these essence blood and the mother, so during the transportation, these Devourers are very likely to chase and kill you, and the Fire Maiden, as an old member of the Bronze Tree, has already had experience in transporting essence blood, and on the way, the two of you can also take care of it!"
I narrowed my eyes slightly when I heard this, and then said, "Is it because the Shadow Lord and the Grass Ghost Lord don't trust me, so they sent the Fire Maiden to follow me and let the two of us contain each other?"
"Hehe, No. 85, you don't have to think about it, originally this time, the Shadow Boss and the Grass Ghost Lord have decided to let you escort alone, but tonight the incident happened suddenly, in order to ensure the safety of the essence and blood, so I will arrange a helper for you!" He patted me on the shoulder, then grinned and said, "Moreover, the fire girl is a big beauty, with her by her side, you won't be lonely along the way, hehe!"
After saying that, he took out a capsule and said, "I'm going to fight, brother, good luck!" After saying that, he was about to crush the capsule, but I hurriedly said, "Wait a minute!"
"Hmm, are you okay?" he asked me, surprised.
I took a deep breath, and then suddenly spoke, and said in a solemn tone, "Into the darkness!"
He frowned, then turned his head and looked at me fixedly with those deep eyes, and I looked at him.
The two of us looked at each other like this for a long time, and just when I thought that No. 73 was the undercover agent who had infiltrated the bronze tree before me, he suddenly spoke up and said to me, "I don't understand what you're talking about, you want to ...... What to express?"
I was stunned, scratched my head, and then smiled and said, "Nothing, nothing!"
"Okay, take care!" he said, crushing the capsule, and with a 'buzz', his whole body disappeared in an instant, leaving me stunned in place, unable to recover for a long time.
"This man...... Is it an undercover agent codenamed Shadow? If so, he should have responded to me by saying the words 'Guardian of the Light' after hearing my codeword. And if he wasn't, then why did he stay stunned for so long after hearing my words? Could it be that he was afraid of something, so he didn't dare to respond to me? Or is he more cautious than I am, and is he wary of me?"
I shook my head helplessly, then stopped thinking about it and prepared to leave.
However, just as I was about to crush the ability capsule, I suddenly heard a voice sound in my head: "Little one, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
When I heard this voice, my heart trembled, because it seemed to come from the mother body that was dormant in the waterhole, and the body was as large as a monster.
