Chapter 769: Dangerous Smell
The underground ancient city is more than 2,800 kilometers away from the entrance of the South Gate in a dense forest.
"Bang"
"Huh"
"Boom"
The sounds of all kinds of battles are continuous, and there are many beasts roaring and birdsong in tandem.
The leaves fluttered and fell in the air, and the trunks of the trees shortened with the sound, and the trees that towered into the sky collapsed one after another, startling many birds and beasts to flutter their wings.
The floor of the woods is covered with a thick layer of leaves covering the black-brown soil, which makes a rattling sound when stepped on.
Dozens of green-eyed creatures hid their bodies behind massive tree trunks, staring at the encircled human ranks.
吭哧哭~~
The green-eyed creature gasped for breath, covered in sparse hair clinging to its skin, resembling a wolf but about twice its size, its huge canine teeth turned out with blood and scraps, and its unclosed mouth dripping with mucus.
A variant of the Crypt Wolf, which can manipulate the dirt, master the earth-based abilities, and have a strong physique and fangs, it will inevitably cause great trouble for the unfortunate human team when this level 8 beast gathers and appears together.
Dressed in combat suits and armed with blood dripping from their arms, the human exploration team confronts the crypt wolves nervously, waiting for the other party to reveal a hole and put their prey to death.
"Damn, there are too many of them"
"Hehe, I didn't expect a breed like the Crypt Wolf to have a second mutation in the ruins of the ancient city to produce a variant"
"Sir?"
The man who was maintained in the middle by everyone waved his hand, "Let's do it, solve it as soon as possible, we must hurry up"
Salat looked south thoughtfully, they all thought I was going to the city center to fight for something like that, and it was a real disappointment to everyone.
After some probing, the men lurking outside the encirclement of the crypt wolves were instructed to attack in unison.
The battle was fierce and short, and when it was all over, all that was left was bloodstains and the remains of a fangless cryptwolf.
The procession of hundreds of people hid again, except for a group of a dozen or so shuttling through the woods.
Contrary to the direction chosen by many of the expeditions, the noble party of the Lausanne Empire made no stop in the heart of the city as they passed through the southern hinterland.
Salat looked to the north, out of sight. As long as he wins the bet this time, the Lausanne Empire is his, and he is the one who can lead the empire to glory, not those sick people who can't cultivate. Thinking of this, Zarate's eyes were hot, and he was full of strength again.
"Speed up, get the team up to speed"
"Yes, sir"
In the center of the southern part of the ancient city, the original prosperous cultural and economic center, the lifeblood of the city, now there is no bustling crowd, but the high-rise buildings are full of red, red, green and green moss creatures, and the alien beasts have replaced them as the masters here. Jump up and down, and live in peace until the human race comes again.
Exploration teams travel through this central area in the hope of discovering something.
The wrecked flying car that was left behind was dismembered, and the core power engine was taken away like a treasure.
Even the garbage cans on the side of the road were taken apart to see what was going on.
The City Street Defense Center is a must-visit for exploration teams, and some people are lucky enough to find the weapons and equipment left behind. Some people were unlucky enough to be extinguished by the remnants of the armed forces, and some people found nothing and continued to search without giving up.
In a labyrinthine underground hangar on the ground floor of a building in the center of the South City, several teams are conducting surveys with various improved and advanced equipment.
Although the image displayed on the light screen often fluctuates and ripples, it is at least much more intuitive than the line data fed back by the sound wave detectors and other feedback used by Moye.
The people in the group were wearing helmets and couldn't see their faces clearly.
"Eh, I heard that the famous Northwest King of your Lausanne Empire, the son of the Marquis of Hamul, is also here, why didn't he join your team?"
"Young people don't like to hang out with us old men. Playing with the team by yourself, what's the matter, you have an unmarried daughter who wants me to help you introduce you."
"Hahaha, I'm a big old man, but there is no lady to introduce to you the royal family and nobles of Lausanne"
The harmony of the conversation between the two seems to be small talk, but it is a hidden edge, and neither of them gets the information they want.
Many forces in the Vitanlia and Lausanne Empires have sent teams to participate in the exploration of the underground ancient city, but the real main force of exploration is only the joint exploration team sent by the high-level of the two countries. The primary goal is to provide energy equipment for the entire ancient city with tens of thousands of years of energy, which is something that attracts more attention from the top leaders of the two countries than weapons and equipment.
No one is willing to give up, and no one is worried about the other, so the joint exploration team naturally came into being, cooperating with each other but also maintaining guard.
"Found out. There is a discovery from the detector ahead."
"There's a basement, and there's really a floor here."
The all-elite team quickly set off for the place where the red dot flashed on the screen.
If Mo Ye was here, he would probably be a little surprised that such a small team actually had two Magister-level players
On the other side of the underground ancient city, Mo Ye and his party walked through a large slum area, over an underground swamp pond, and along the track line to the north.
Mo Ye repeats the regular days of the machine every day, and he does not delay the magic practice when he sits on the snail shell, but 11 and Luo Meizi seem to have nothing to do, and they have to lie down on the snail shell to sleep like sleepy insects all day long, basking in the sunlight that does not exist at all to absorb all kinds of radiation, and it is also called recuperation.
Weslan sat behind Brooke and didn't have to worry about his vision being obstructed because of the height difference, he looked at his surroundings and then at Mo Ye, who was walking in front of him with his eyes closed and meditating, lowering his eyes thoughtfully.
It's been two days, and for two whole days, I haven't even encountered a strange beast, obviously according to the records, this area is an active area infested by underground creatures, but they woke up all the way and didn't encounter a single one, and they saw those strange beasts from a distance like frightened white rabbits and ran away, this team really has a secret place that they don't know.
After two days of riding a snail, he finally crossed the hinterland of the southern center and entered the edge of the southern sector near the northern border, and the map provided by Weslan recorded less and less valid information.
"Look, it's like a sign."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's a street sign"
A big guy ten meters high and two meters wide stands on the side of the track line, covered with moss and has long been unable to see the original appearance, Mo Ye really admires those team members who see through the essence through the phenomenon. A collection of green hairs, how the hell did they see the true nature of the 'street sign'!
The moss and plants overgrown on the green stones were cleaned up, and the arrows and landmarks were faintly visible, as well as the ancient characters that most people would not recognize.
"'Turn left and go straight for one kilometer at the No. 3 entrance of the passenger port', that's probably what it means," Xiao Qi said in Mo Ye's ear. In fact, it's not very certain, and it's also guessing if you recognize the ancient text, uh, well, scientifically speaking, it's called a possibility analysis based on limited data.
"According to the map, we are now on the border of the north, and we will enter the north after this stop."
Combined with the map in Weslan's hand, Xiao Qi's translation should be correct, and it is a hub station for the north-south traffic of the ancient city not far away.
It was really close to the north, and Mo Ye stood on the side of the road and closed his eyes, and the signal received by his spiritual power was stronger. The hint of spiritual power became more and more obvious, and the signal of that guidance seemed to have been strengthened, and it must have come from somewhere in the north of the ancient city.
Although Weslan tried his best to restrain himself, there was still a trace of eagerness and excitement in his voice: "Further on, we passed through a large passenger port, which was the original north-south passenger transportation center of the ancient city, and the port was very large. It can carry a huge flow of passengers such as aircraft and ground transportation, and passing through this passenger port, we can really set foot on the land in the north of the ancient city."
Luo Yuning spread his hands, "We really haven't gained anything along the way."
The team is almost becoming a professional collector, collecting a large number of specimens of underground plants, and there is nothing else, and the students of Salander Academy have pinned their hopes on the north.
At this time, Zubajia, a blue-eyed tough guy with a big beard and fluff behind his ears, and Zubajia turned around. Walking back to the road sign, his nose shook as if he was sniffing something, and finally squatted down and touched the sand on the ground, "There are strange beasts here"
"Aren't you talking nonsense, there are more strange beasts in this place"
"I guess I ran away."
Zubajia frowned and looked at Mo Ye and said awkwardly in a common language, "Ink Pharmacist, I suggest that the team slow down and be more careful on the road ahead. The strange beasts here seem to be a little different, and I smell danger."
"Hmm"
As a master of tracking and living in the wild, the advice given by the half-werewolf is still very valuable to listen to.
11 was a little curious, "Bajia, how did you smell it?"
"There's an unusual smell here," the half-werewolf Zubaja concluded, after a few more turns, "this place is fenced off."
Brooke scratched his chin and sighed, "Haha, Bajia." Do you smell urine?"
The taste of dividing the territory, it is really subtle, how to divide the territory of the beast, return to the nature of the animal, and pee properly!
Everyone" "Smell urine or something, it's so powerful, the world with too sensitive sense of smell is really unbearable to look at directly!
Honest people can always stab people in the face when they are not expecting.
Betty kicked out, "You don't talk much and don't treat you like a dumb person"
"I'm not going to ask," muttered the bearded dwarf who didn't understand why he was kicked.
"It's normal for there to be strange beasts here, being able to divide the territory means that this area has a strange beast lord, at least a foreign beast above level nine is qualified to occupy the territory, this kind of big guy may not be scared by the bricks, you all pay attention" Mo Ye said deliberately to 11 and Luo Yuning in the team channel.
These two guys were a little too lazy along the way.
It didn't take long to follow the map to indicate that the procession came to the entrance of the passenger port.
It is a huge circular building.
The transit port covers an area that is so large that it is almost impossible to see at a glance, and it takes more time to detour, and you may get lost, and crossing the interior of the port is currently the best way to go.
The entrances to the passenger port have been covered with countless thriving underground plants and weeping grasses, and it would be difficult to find them without the guidance of the map.
A series of fireballs were thrown, and the vigorous and vigorous weeping grass turned from fresh green to withered yellow, and finally turned into ashes, which were blown into the air.
When approaching the entrance of the passenger port, the snails went on strike en masse, no matter how they drove away, the Tahitian snails who had been working hard these days were satisfied as long as they ate moss, as if they wanted to have super super glue under their feet, but they couldn't move.
"Calf Niu, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm hungry or whatever, why don't you leave"
Even the brick intimidation was useless, and the snail's four legs trembled in the double fright, and if it weren't for someone on the shell, they would have retracted into the shell at this time, and they looked strange and pitiful.
Mo Ye stared at the entrance of the passenger port like a black hole, and it was indeed as Zu Bajia said, there were high-level alien beasts dividing the territory, how dare the snail as a low-level alien beast continue to move forward, and trespassing on the territory of alien beasts was looking for death.
Mo Ye didn't plan to embarrass these gentle and honest herbivorous beasts, and the large army collectively dismounted the cattle, after the bricks agreed to let them go.
The Tahitian snails turned and ran with tears in their eyes, twice as fast as they had come, as if they were burning their butts, and in the blink of an eye they could only see their flapping thighs disappear into the dust.
That's really nostalgic!
"It's much faster than when I came."
Everyone looked at the swarthy hole and swallowed their saliva, which can make the snails scare like this and exert their extreme speed, what is there living in here?
Because of the unusual behavior of the Tahitian snail, everyone in the team looked serious, strengthened their vigilance one by one, and walked into the passenger port with weapons in their hands.
The passenger port has long since ceased to function, having been silent for tens of thousands of years, and has ceased to operate when the inhabitants have evacuated, and the buildings covered in clumps of vegetation are pitch black and have no light.
This time, Mo Ye walked in the first echelon of the team, and with a wave of his hand, several balls of light emitting a soft light hung above the team, and his vision was clear but not dazzling.
Walk down a long line of stairs into the empty hall.
Tick~~Tick~~
It's the sound of water droplets falling.
"Rub, how is this flooded"
A student fell into a puddle without stepping on one foot.
The terrain is already flooded in the passenger port hall, and the deepest place can be submerged up to the ankles, and a group of people walk in, making a crackling splashing sound, which is particularly abrupt in this empty hall, and the echo is rippling.
Zubajia turned around and said, "Ink Pharmacist, the taste has become stronger."
When Mo Ye heard this, he suddenly shouted to stop, and a group of people stood motionless in the dark puddle.
"What's wrong?"
