Chapter 33: Evil Entrenches
With the light of the torches hanging all over the rock wall, Lin Pan saw that there was something unique in the cave.
There are also many impoverished people living here, who make their homes in the large and small tunnels carved out of the caves, or set up simple tents on the flat ground, and Lin Pan almost suffers from a phobia of dense with just one face.
The biggest difference from the penal colony outside is that every humble dwelling here is a banner with shields and axes drawn, weapons and a cold light.
This must be the residence of the Shield Axe Gang. Lin Pan pondered. He and Minna slowed down, observing and going deeper. At this time, there were still many wounded people in the cave resting and recuperating, occasionally letting out a few muffled moans and minor complaints.
"It hurts, that guy was really awesome yesterday, and the town guard didn't have this person before. Have you heard of it?"
"It seems to be Bender Yas's brother, but that guy used to be a piece of crap, the kind he saw us all walking around. β
"People come to run, and the contract is a high-level beast. Don't complain, train well after recovering from your injuries, Taigu will definitely protect us. β
"Actually, I think the other party is quite kind, and he didn't take a heavy hand on us, I heard that Lord Akai is not so lucky, but he has obtained a powerful thorn dragon as a rock beast!"
"Shhhh
"Everyone is a brother, and there are no outsiders ......"
Little did they know that yesterday's nightmare had come to them.
"This is the center of the Shield and Axe Gang, but it seems that all that is left behind is some miscellaneous fish. Minna lowered her voice and introduced. "And it sounds like the higher-ups are currently under a gag order, and it's not easy to find Akai's family. β
In a relatively closed environment, in order to suppress the voice of the speaker, Minna almost put her mouth on Lin Pan's ear, and the girl's breath was warm and smelly, which made Lin Pan a little uneasy, and it took a long time to reply:
"Higher-ups, Akai isn't their boss?"
"You think too much, don't look at Akai on the surface, but at best he can only be regarded as a first-class thug, you see that he is arrogant and domineering, in fact, he is just some fur skills with teeth and claws. The penal colony was once a truly borderland, in utter chaos, with lives being lost every day. Later, the Shield Axe Gang took over the place. They suppressed the rebels, established a series of rules, and selected potential people to join the gang and provide basic food security. Those with high potential also have the opportunity to contract with the Pan Beast and advance to the Pan Shi. β
"In this way, people with strength and potential in the penal zone will not rebel against them, but join them?"
"That's right, but after all, the ruler of Rock Wall is Lord Barmy Russell, and he gave the town guard a lot of discretion in order to suppress the Shield Axe Gang and prevent him from being threatened by the Great. In the beginning, there were several fierce clashes between the two sides, and many people died. Later, the captain Chesky didn't know how to operate, and the Shield Axe Gang was relatively peaceful. There is clearly an ulterior deal behind it. β
"Since it can be stabilized, it's okay, in this world, we only look at the results and don't look at the process, but I don't know who the boss behind the shield and axe gang is, and it looks like a rich country. β
βMeγ β
"What? is you?" Lin Pan was shocked.
Minna looked confused: "It's a mystery." What I just said is a mystery, why are you so excited?"
β......β
Suddenly, Lin Pan had an extremely uncomfortable feeling, as if he was being targeted by something, and he should be in the lower level of the food chain, which is a very disadvantageous position.
That feeling only existed for a short moment, and it was hard to describe, but Lin Pan trusted his instincts. He asked Minna if she felt anything, and the latter looked confused: "Happy? I can't be happy. Lin Pan covered his head, feeling that the conversation should be cut off first.
The haunting of the box is worthy of being a through train to the soul, confirming Lin Pan's guess: "Your intuition is very accurate, and I did find something." β
"What's that?"
"A rock beast, but definitely not an ordinary rock beast, it lurks well, but after all...... It's life that can't hide desire, that strong desire to devour. Don't look around, it's right above your heads. β
=========================================
"The disposal of corpses in the penal colony has always been a mystery, and the public cemetery has always been empty, and now it ...... I kind of know. β
According to Lin Pan's prompt, Minna looked up at the top of the cave and felt something.
It was a huge, pitch-black, gecko-like monster, a full ten meters long, with dense black scales that barely reflected the light of a torch. Its suckers on all four legs were firmly attached to the rock wall, and its mouth was full of long, scarlet tongues.
This rock beast does not have an aggressive and powerful momentum, and when he is motionless, it gives people a very quiet and eerie feeling, but it does not reduce its danger level.
Suddenly, Lin Pan found that the other party's limbs moved, this was based on the results of the aftermath to draw this conclusion, as for when it moved, his eyes didn't catch it at all!
That's a blistering speed!
At this moment, Lin Pan saw this rock beast crack its huge mouth, revealing two rows of fine and cold teeth on the upper and lower sides.
"Welcome to my territory, Panshi. β
A calm male voice sounded in Lin Pan's mind, and he realized that the voice was coming from the big gecko.
"How can you speak? Aren't you a rock beast?"
"Hey, who said the Rock Beast can't talk?" "Brother Box is not happy, the contempt chain is not played like this.
The black gecko ignored Lin Pan's idiotic question and said to himself, "Kunde Yas, if I'm not mistaken, I don't think I invited you. Shouldn't you apologize for such a bold intrusion?"
Lin Pan also refused very simply: "If the apology is useful, are you drooling?"
"Hahaha! You're smart and funny! Now that you've shown great strength, I'd like to play with you. β
The Black Gecko laughed, but strangely, the other members of the Shield Axe Gang who were present didn't seem to hear this conversation at all, as if the two sides were talking dumbly into the air.
Immediately afterwards, the huge pan beast slowly climbed down against one side of the wall, almost without sound and vibration, and in addition, a strange scene occurred, where it passed, the resting panshi all staggered to their feet, they raised their arms, behaved strangely, and moved stiffly, slowly following the black gecko's side and behind.
Damn, isn't this summoning zombies? No, those people aren't supposed to be dead, they're just mentally controlled by some special ability.
Lin Pan suddenly became worried, these "zombies" are all living people, to fight or not to fight?
