Chapter 0089: Breaking Through the Perimeter

In the staggering and twisted dark shadows, stalagmites, rock peaks, and stone protrusions with canine teeth occupy most of the space in view, and the slightest sound of the empty and silent cave can be heard far and wide along the twisting tunnel. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Grim stood high above the crocodile hunter's back, blue flashing in his eyes.

Although there was silence all around, there was not a single sound, but Grim's instinct of danger had already resounded. It seems that a large number of enemies have arrived!

With a soft sound, a blinding red flame shield appeared, and began to coil around Grim's body. The chip in Grim's mind is busy calculating, countless real-time images are constantly matching and comparing, and the subtle differences that are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye are found one by one by the sharp-eyed chips, and then they are identified on Grim's retina in turn.

Grim turned his head to stare at a low-hanging stalactite to the left of his path, where a shadow was a little thicker than before. With a slight stomp of Grim's foot, the native hunter in front of him raised his hand with one hand, and a sharp, earthy yellow earth spear condensed into his hand.

Twisting his waist and swinging around, under the vigorous projection of the earth hunter, the earth spear turned into a yellow lightning bolt, and instantly pierced the shadow.

In Grim's sight, there was nothing there, neither elemental reaction nor life. However, with the piercing of the earth spear, there was a dull "poof" sound of nails piercing into the flesh, and then a terrible and miserable hiss resounded through the silent space.

The shadows boiled, and a humanoid creature shrouded in fine blue-black scales suddenly appeared, the earthen spear piercing through its chest and nailing it to the stone pillar.

Warm blood trickled down the spear, and the humanoid began to struggle desperately, and the greater the movement of its struggle, the larger the wound of the spear, and the more ferocious the gushing blood.

Burst.

A second earthen spear slammed into its skull.

The humanoid creature stopped moving in an instant, and the nail hung motionlessly on the stone pillar, leaving only the crisp and pleasant sound of blood dripping from the ground in the cave.

The next moment, Grim looked up at the dark top of the wall.

It was twelve or thirteen meters above the ground, and even with Grim's vision, the vision was blurry under the interference of the faint light. But as the earth hunter threw two earth spears, another thin and muscular humanoid creature fell from above.

The two spears pierced its right chest and left leg, but did not take its life. However, just as it was lying on the cold floor in pain, the giant claws of the demon crocodile suddenly expanded in front of its eyes.

There was a muffled bang, and the muffled sound of tomato and watermelon being trampled on in the cave sounded.

The crocodile continued to roam slowly, and by the time its claws were raised again, all that remained of the humanoid was a puddle of muddy meat sauce that was indiscernible in form, race, and gender.

A sharp whistle suddenly sounded in the darkness.

When the whistle sounded through the cave, in the dark darkness in the distance, countless shadows began to approach rapidly in the direction of Grim, and the number of people was probably more than a hundred.

In the darkness, the clanging of the bowstring continued, and the sharp explosion that pierced the air poured in from all directions, aiming directly at Grim, who was in the sky.

Ao, prepare for a group fight!

Grim didn't dare to hold it up, and instantly dispersed the flame shield on his body, and then sank into the huge and thick body of the demon crocodile as if he had fallen into a swamp.

Puff puff......

As soon as Grim disappeared, the back of the crocodile on which he had been standing was densely filled with sharp arrows like wheat fields. All of the arrows glowed with green fluorescence, apparently quenched with some unknown toxin.

The native hunter who was followed by the seedlings was also full of arrows, but it didn't care, holding its hands on the top of its head, it could automatically condense a one-and-a-half-meter-long earth elemental spear every time. And it opened its bow left and right, and kept throwing it towards the lizard hunters who showed their bodies in the distance.

Some were dodged by lizard hunters and assassins, some shattered on top of the obstructive cradmites, and some hit their targets directly, instantly destroying an enemy in the shadows.

I have to say that the body of the lizard is still too weak and slender. In order not to affect the flexibility and agility of their movements, they did not evolve the thick and dense hard scales similar to large monsters outside their bodies, but grew layers of fine and thin blue-black scales, and their function was only to isolate the leakage of body temperature.

This evolutionary direction gives them unparalleled ability to stealth in the dark crypts, but makes their defenses vulnerable. The clay spear with the thickness of the cup was a terrifying wound that could kill them, no matter which part of their body pierced. Their delicate bodies were simply not enough to withstand such an attack.

The poisoned arrows they are accustomed to use are not effective in the face of a clay carved elemental puppet life. As a last resort, the lizard hunters had to pull out their short daggers and leap between the rock walls and stalagmites to pounce on the massive crocodiles that were still moving forward.

At this moment, the flaws of the absence of demonic weapons are unmistakable.

Although the weapons polished by special metal in the underground are extremely sharp, most of them are light and thin, and such weapons are not enough to break the yellow and shining mud armor on the surface of the demon crocodile's body. Many lizardmen surrounded the demon crocodile and attacked, chopping and chopping the mud armor and slicing the dirt and slag and falling it continuously. But a moment later, as an earthy yellow aura flashed, the mud armor was as good as new again.

They can't beat the crocodile, but the crocodile can move them.

Although the frequency of the Demon Crocodile's attack is a little slower, each large-scale ground spear can take the lives of 3-5 lizardmen. The Demon Crocodile is like a giant tank that rumbles forward and constantly grinds forward, and those lizards are a group of ignorant natives with bamboo spears and bamboo arrows on their backs, the difference in strength between the two sides is by no means half a star, and the huge casualties caused by this are also reasonable.

Finally, after more than half of the lizardmen had been damaged, a terrible whistle sounded again in the darkness in the distance.

With a low roar, the lizards began to retreat.

When the surrounding area of the crocodile was quiet again, Grim's hidden body under the thick cloak slowly emerged. He hesitated, but didn't drive the crocodile to pursue the enemies.

It can be seen that the underground tribes here have a strong sense of territory, and they are probably too close to their habitat to be attacked by them. At this time, they suffered such a big loss, it seems that they are going to retreat into the nest to defend.

However, just as Grim drove the crocodile onwards, his keen sense of hearing sensed the terrible screams of the lizards in the distance, as if a new war was being fought in the darkness again.

However, Grim was not interested in this, so he just stood on the crocodile and looked into the distance for a few times before continuing his journey.

In the darkness of darkness, the old gnoll leader was hidden behind a stone pillar, looking at Grim from afar, his gray and thin hairy face full of surprise that could not be concealed.

Behind it, the sturdy gnolls flying through the dark and rugged caverns were rapidly pounced on the defeated lizard-man team, the two sides chasing and fighting in the dark shadows of rock peaks and stalagmites, and the muffled sound of sharp daggers slicing throats was endless.

If this raid goes well, maybe the damned lizard-man tribe will be driven out of the area, and the profits in the ruins will go to their gnolls.

However, Grey Ear still has scruples about the surface apprentice who suddenly broke into the inner perimeter of the ruins.

As soon as it beckoned, a subordinate appeared in the shadows behind it.

"Go, inform the Cracktooth of Elysium, and have it tell the Fallen Sorcerer, that someone wants to enter the ruin. Let's just say that our Grey-Eared tribe can't stop the enemy and suffers heavy losses, while the Darklin Lizard tribe has been wiped out by the enemy!"

"Yes, my subordinates will go!"

With a slight bow, the shadow turned and disappeared into the infinite darkness.

…………

The further he went, the deeper the worry in Grim's heart became.

In front of and behind you, on the left and right sides of your body, and even above your head and under your feet, the metal content in the rock formations is getting higher and higher, and the soil that is exposed from the fruit is getting less and less. This also meant that once he encountered a terrible enemy here, it would be difficult for even him to run away as he used to.

This is really bad news that he doesn't want to hear.

However, Grim also has to admit that this is indeed an extremely suitable area for building a city.

In the underground world, if you want to build a city once and for all, in addition to considering the surrounding biological resources, mineral resources and water sources, the most important thing to consider is the stability and solidity of the geological structure. Areas like this, which are surrounded by metal deposits and have continuous and stable rock formations, are scarce.

Mineral deposits mean that there is a steady stream of resources to attract wandering caravans, and water sources mean that more lives can be fed here, but these are not as good as having a solid "sky". No one wants to be crushed into a patty by tens of millions of tons of dirt and gravel in their sleep!

So Kirby's point out that this is the ruins of the previous Elysium City, judging from the topography alone, there is some truth.

Passing through the habitats of multiple underground races in a row, perhaps affected by the defeat of the lizardmen, they all huddled in the darkness in the distance, but did not rush forward to attack rashly.

So in a dangerous scene, the demon crocodile finally came to the end of a long journey.

As Grim rode through a huge arch on a crocodile, the sight of the world suddenly became empty, and a huge dark cavern full of mysterious and fantastical colors appeared in front of him.
