Chapter 40: The Search

As can be seen from the picture, the prototype of the Awakened Chariot should be SUV, compared with off-road vehicles, SUVs are characterized by strong power, off-road, spacious and comfortable and good cargo and passenger carrying functions, the biggest feature of the previous off-road vehicles is that they have strong passing capacity, and they also have a certain cargo capacity, but the sporty comfort is not outstanding.

It can be said that compared with its ancestors, SUVs are more like tigers, and the Awakened Chariot based on the SUV has canceled the beauty and demeanor of the SUV, and has greatly improved its practicality, making the entire shape of the Awakened Chariot now like a tank, with a very high chassis and tires that are gripping tires, which are very suitable for mountain roads, and such cars are especially convenient in the mountains.

Ye Liqi didn't know about the Awakened Chariot, but the fat man knew it, and he frothed at the mouth and preached to everyone: "Ten centimeters thick body armor, light effect glass, and powerful explosion-proof tires, unless it is rocket artillery, it can't break through its defense at all." ”

The Awakened Chariot is indeed attractive enough, but for them it is still just a legend, not to mention in their Fang City, even in the capital that not everyone can have, it is said that there are only three of them, one for the Awakened Colonel of the military department, one for the Prime Minister, and one for the first person in the Awakened Ranking.

This Awakened leaderboard is also a new addition after the expansion of the national ability station, there are a total of three large screens in the hall of the ability station, of which the first screen is a variety of news about the awakened and alien beasts, awakened plants, and the second screen is the quest panel, where all awakened can find the tasks they need on the scrolling quest panel.

The third screen was dark before, and now after the expansion of the ability, many plans that have not had time to be implemented have all been launched this time, and when Ye Liqi went to take the task, he saw the third electronic screen that lit up.

Of course, at this special time, the third screen is still blank, on the left is the personal strength ranking of the Awakened, and on the right is the overall strength ranking of the Awakened Squad, which will not start counting until the end of the month.

At the same time, a group of special awakened people like Ye Liqi also need to go to the ability station at the end of the month to test their ability level, and along with those ordinary awakened people who are ready to take on the task, everyone must record their ability level in the ability station.

Out of the city, running to the highway, such as Changxun a car with a very low chassis is not suitable for running this kind of route often, a few people drove all the way to the location near the hunting giant spider that day, and then slowly got out of the car.

The two people in the toll booth saw a few people hurriedly running out of their place of work, exchanged a few words with them and hurried back to their posts.

The fat man took the lead and walked in front, Ye Liqi staggered two steps to follow behind the fat man, and then Chang Xun and Qiqi, Wu Muhua hung at the end.

"I've been here before, but that was many years ago, and I don't know what happened to it now, so I'm not sure where the giant spider's burrow is." The fat man said.

"Then let's go to a few caves around here first, maybe there are some clues." Chang Xun Road.

The fat man nodded, and led the group to the caves where he had been.

Although it had not rained, the road here was still very difficult to walk.

Ye Liqi raised his feet and rubbed a thick layer of silt under his feet on the roots of the trees next to him, the climate on Fangcheng's side is relatively arid, and it rarely rains, although the soil is generally moist in the woods where the sun is rarely seen, but no matter how wet it is, it will not be all slowly silt under his feet.

This situation was very wrong, Ye Lingqi remembered that when he was hunting giant spiders, the small forest in front of him was also muddy, and there were even some small waterholes in some places.

Ye Liqi's footsteps slowed down little by little, and after a while, he fell behind the back of everyone, everyone was in a hurry, and no one paid attention to Ye Lili's strange appearance.

Looking at the layers of mud on her feet, Ye Lingqi simply scraped the mud with branches, and every time she landed on a place with branches or stone roots, she thought, I hope she thinks too much.

After a while, everyone came to the cave that the fat man said, which was dark and dark, and the fat man took out a roll of cloth and a package of oiled paper from the schoolbag he was carrying, and took out a Tang knife and cut off a thicker branch on the spot, and wrapped it in a circle of oiled paper and a circle of cloth.

Ye Liqi looked at the fat man's skillful movements, his eyes flashed, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, turned around and looked at the other three people, except for Qiqi standing there with a disdainful face, Wu Muhua and Chang Xun both had a calm face, as if the fat man was doing something very normal.

Wrapping the torch, the fat man took out a steel lighter from his pocket, turned around and lit the torch, and then let a few people move away a little, and with a strong right hand, he threw the torch into the depths of the cave with a wave of his arm.

The bright torch suddenly illuminated the dark cave, Ye Liqi squinted her eyes and looked at it, this cave was very long, at least she had not seen the end of the cave where the torch could shine.

Everyone waited for a while, and saw that the torches were still burning on the ground, proving that there was enough oxygen in the cave, and then they walked in one by one.

Ye Liqi fell at the end of everyone, and the three [ridges] [army] thorns on her waist were pulled out by her at some point, and she took them in her right hand defensively, and slowly walked forward.

The fat man bent down to pick up the torch, and at the same time shone it with the flashlight of his right hand, but he still couldn't see the end, so he stopped and said to everyone: "This is the most likely place in my opinion, the other caves are relatively narrow, not suitable for the huge size of giant spiders to go back and forth, if there is no one in this cave, we will have to go deeper." ”

Chang Xun nodded: "Okay, we all believe in you, let's go, let's talk about it if there is nothing here, everyone be careful." ”

And the crowd went deeper without saying a word.

Ye Liqi looked at this cave, and the flashlight in his hand also shone upward, indeed, just like the fat man said, this cave is really big enough, and there is a giant spider at the entrance of the cave The size of a giant spider is one and a half large, and there is a cave in it, it is like a temple in the mountain, and the possibility of the giant spider hiding here is indeed very large.

Unconsciously, Ye Liqi was not close to the distance, she was shining a flashlight on the surrounding stone walls, trying to find any clues, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a frightened cry from the front, it was Qiqi.

Ye Liqi had just taken two quick steps over there when she heard a voice in front of her, and before she could think about anything, a layer of pale black devouring ability covered her body.

After those things passed, Ye Liqi withdrew the pale black mist on his body, quickened his pace, and Ye Liqi approached Qiqi and them.

"Are you alright?" Chang Xun asked.

Ye Liqi shook his head and looked at Qiqi, Qiqi was so frightened that she threw herself into Chang Xun's arms at this time, the pear blossoms sobbed with rain, Ye Liqi held the right hand of the three [ridges] [army] thorns stiffened slightly, and walked in front with the fat man who could not stand it.

Chang Xun was also a little embarrassed, but he still patted Qiqi lightly on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's all over, it's just two bats." ”

Kiki sobbed as she raised her head, her right hand tightly gripping Chang Xun's arm, muttering that she didn't know what she was talking about.

Ye Liqi was not interested in listening to the two people in the back, you and me, and followed the fat man, shaking the stone wall above his head with a flashlight, while chatting quietly with the fat man.

"Where did you buy that wolf-eye flashlight? I would like to buy one too. Ye Liqi said in a low voice.

The fat man laughed twice, grabbed the torch in his left hand, touched the back of his head with his right hand, and didn't say where he bought his flashlight, and said directly: "There is a store that collects ancient money on Sijiu Street, and after you go, just say that I introduced it." ”

Ye Liqi understood the meaning of the fat man, and when he heard the words, he nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you." ”

The fat man waved his hand, and replied with the same ease: "No, I don't worry about you." ”

Ye Liqi smiled and didn't speak again.

The more they walked into the cave, the more they felt a little cold, the fat man glanced at the torch that was still on it, suddenly stopped, took it out of his pocket, and actually took out a wool, and the wool was carried in the fat man's hand, and was held high, and in the light of the torch, the wool fluttered slightly.

Extinguishing the torch, the fat man put it back into his schoolbag and looked at everyone, "I've never gone so far, I don't know what else lies ahead, but we didn't have any forks in the road along the way, and there was a cold wind in it, so don't worry about oxygen." So do you want to go further in? ”

Chang Xun raised his eyebrows, like this kind of thing is usually decided by him, the captain, Qiqi suddenly reached out and gently tugged at Chang Xun's sleeve, and said, "I'm a little cold, why don't we come back next time, or just tell them that this is the nest of giant spiders?" ”

Chang Xun patted the back of Qiqi's hand lightly, frowned, and said, "Walk in for another half an hour, if it's not the end, we'll talk about it again." ”

Everyone nodded, and Qiqi bit her lower lip and lowered her head, but her right hand was still tightly pulling the corner of Chang Xun's clothes.

Ye Liqi opened the personal terminal, they had been walking in this cave for nearly an hour, she was wearing a camouflage jacket when she came, and the fat man and the others were all wearing half-amputated sleeves, and Qiqi was wearing a small vest and shorts, no wonder she was cold.

While walking forward in silence, while checking the surrounding environment, suddenly, Ye Liqi stopped the flashlight that kept shaking, and slowly approached the place.

The closer she got to the place, the brighter the flashlight shone on the stone wall.

The fat man was closest to Ye Ling, and when he saw that Ye Lingqi had noticed something unusual, he slowly approached.

On the dark yellow stone wall, a wisp of reddish-brown was particularly distinct, Ye Lingqi looked at his feet, stepped on a bulge and climbed onto the stone wall, and looked at the red with a flashlight carefully for a while before jumping down.

"It's bloodstains, it should have been a few days, and it looks like it's about the same height as a giant spider." Ye Liqi said.

Chang Xun and the others also looked closer, nodded, and said, "Keep going." ”

Everyone walked forward for a while, and there were more and more blood stains on the wall, all of which had already dried up, and for about twenty minutes, they saw two forks in front of them, the left side was black and swarthy, and there was a strange smell coming out, and there was a wide opening on the right side, and the cold wind was pouring in from that mouth.
