Chapter 108: Fog Lock Heavy Building
"Brother Roland, are you sure Mira is in this building?" Bloom stood in front of the door of an abandoned building, staring at the thick cobwebs of the window, and his face was full of doubt: "This place looks like a spider's nest, and for some reason, I have a bad feeling."

Roland closed his eyes and meditated for a while, reconfirmed that Lyudmila was upstairs, opened his eyes and said to Bloom: "'Biolocation' usually can't go wrong, let's go upstairs and see what happens." ”
Nikita raised her hand lightly and released the "Detection Magic" of the Zero Ring Trick, and a little blue light immediately appeared in the building, moving quickly near the second floor.
"There's magic items in the building, and there's more than one." The Witch in Red muttered to herself.
Bloom's eyes lit up: "There's treasure in there?" ”
Nikita shook her head and smiled, mercilessly despising his intelligence: "A magic item that moves is by no means a treasure, it can only mean that someone in it is wearing a magic item and is moving. ”
"Humph! There is so much nonsense, it's useful, just go up and take a look. Bloom picked up the hammer and followed Roland into the abandoned building.
The hall on the first floor was muddy, and there were clear signs of creatures walking on the ground, in addition to human footprints, Roland also saw many faint traces, but unfortunately Lyudmila was not around, and he couldn't recognize what kind of footprints were left by the creatures, so he could only guess from the distance between his feet that his size was quite large.
The hall is flanked by four rooms arranged symmetrically, with doors all open for an unobstructed view. Littered with garbage, mud left behind after a flood, and cobwebs everywhere, there's nothing noteworthy.
"There's a staircase here, let's go up and have a look." Roland was the first to climb the stairs, and on the way he found a large pool of blood, and there was a shocking cut nearby, which made his heartstrings tighten, and he hurriedly quickened his pace to the second floor.
Pushing the door into the hall on the second floor, a half-human, half-spider corpse came into view, and I couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Nikita followed, staring at the corpse and muttering, "Arachnid elves are not easy to mess with, especially when fighting in such a cramped environment...... It seems that your Ranger Lady also has a fellow thief, and they are very good at hunting arachnid elves with the power of just two of them. ”
Roland was about to speak, when a surprise call suddenly came from above his head.
"Mr. Roland! Is it really you? ”
Roland looked up when he heard the sound, and saw a girl with a ponytail hanging upside down on the ceiling, wearing a black cloak painted with a silver net-like pattern, looking like a large spider, but it was Veronica.
"Great, I've finally found you!" The female ninja jumped from the ceiling with her hands and feet, and pounced excitedly at Roland.
Roland stretched out his hand to hug the girl who fell from the sky and asked her eagerly, "Where is Mira?" ”
"I'm here." The female ranger's voice came from the next room, but the next moment it came directly from the opposite side of the wall, hurriedly grabbed the battering ram, and pressed against the door to the next room.
"Mira, Ronnie, it's okay for you to be fine, what's going on in the room opposite, it sounds noisy." Bloom walked over and asked.
Lyudmila stared at the smashing wooden door and briefly recounted her and Veronica's adventures.
“…… Ronnie and I teamed up to kill the arachnids, but instead of angering its men, a large group of giant spiders had gathered on the roof of the building to escape the flood, and they all rushed down to kill us when they smelled the blood. ”
Roland frowned slightly: "This wooden door can't stop the giant spiders, and it's not wise to fight them in such a small environment, they will crawl all over the walls and ceilings, frantically pinch us from all angles." ”
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and leave this hellish place and change to a more spacious battlefield to fight back!" Bloom shouted.
Nikita's eyes flashed, and she walked up to Roland's side: "Actually, the environment here is not completely unfavorable to us, I can use cloud magic to design a simple trap......"
As soon as Roland heard her say the "cloud technique", he immediately understood, grabbed a chair and threw it at the window, smashing the glass to pieces. Through the open window, you can see the flooded ditch downstairs, like a wide pond.
"Ronnie, you stay to lure the enemy, stay safe; Nikita was now ready to cast spells, and Mira and Bloom hurried downstairs to the pond to get ready to beat the Reservoir Dogs. ”
Roland assigned the task cleanly, and everyone immediately began to carry it out.
Nikita spat out a string of obscure incantations and pointed her finger at Veronica, and a mist turned into a thick wall and emerged out of thin air, surrounding the female ninja and quickly spreading in all directions, filling the hall and obscuring everyone's view.
Through the thick fog, Roland couldn't see where Veronica was, so he could only loudly remind her to be more careful, and the witch in red who was close at hand could only distinguish a vague figure, and opened the "Pupil of Fate" behind to eliminate the interference of clouds and mist, and her vision suddenly returned to clear.
Holding Nikita's slender hand, which was fumbling in this direction, Roland whispered in her ear, "Leave it to Ronie here, let's go." ”
The Witch in Red gave a meek "um", took Roland by the crook of his arm, and let him help her through the fog and down the stairs.
Not long after the two of them left, the door was slammed open, and a group of giant spiders the size of a bathtub rushed in, suddenly realizing that they were in a fog, and they were stunned.
Just then, they heard footsteps in the room, and a vague figure faded away.
The spiders were not smart despite their brains, so they chased after them without thinking.
Veronica heard movement behind her and knew that the giant spider had taken the bait, so she quickly rushed to the window with her impression, turned over and jumped out. The group of spiders behind him were obscured by the fog, and they couldn't see their surroundings clearly, and they vaguely saw Veronica jumping out, and they all jumped out of the window without hesitation.
At this time, Roland and Nikita were already waiting by the pond downstairs. Sensing a black shadow flying from the sky, Nikita immediately threw out the "activation rope" that had been prepared long ago, wrapped around the waist of the ninja girl in mid-air, and dragged her towards the shore with all her might, so that she would not fall into the water.
Nikita is a mage after all, and her strength attribute is only 11 points, which can only be regarded as a slightly stronger level than ordinary people, and it is not easy to drag Veronica, who weighs the same as herself, over, but was dragged by the rope under the effect of inertia, and almost fell into the pond.
Roland stepped forward in time to grab her waist, and grabbed the rope to drag Veronica back in the air, protecting her to the ground.
At the same time, squeaky screams were heard in the air. The giant spider jumped out of the window on the second floor and realized that it had been fooled, but it was too late, and it fell into the pond one after another like dumplings, splashing and splashing.
The giant spider is not a good swimmer, and after falling into the water, it panics and struggles to slide its eight long legs in an attempt to swim back to shore.
"Stupid big bug, since you've become a reservoir dog, don't even think about going ashore again!" Bloom laughed and threw his hammer to smash a giant spider back into the pond.
Lyudmila also skillfully plucked the bowstring, and the arrows were fired in a flurry of arrows, hitting the giant spider and screaming it again and again.
The injured spider was unable to struggle any longer, and sank into the pond one after another, drowning alive.
Nikita and Veronica are not good at long-range attacks, each holding Roland's arm, and standing far away on the shore to watch the excitement.
Roland didn't have the leisure to enjoy leaning on the green and red, hugged left and right, walked straight to Lyudmila and Bloom, flashed his dragon pistol, aimed at the big spider struggling in the pool, and fired at it, killing them one by one.
When Roland wasn't around, Nikita lost interest in watching the excitement and was about to find a quiet place to stay, when she turned around and accidentally caught a glimpse of Veronica, and her heart couldn't help but move and stopped.
The situation was tense just now, and she didn't bother to look at the other party carefully, but now that she looked at it carefully, the more she felt that the beautiful little face was very familiar.
Veronica noticed that she was staring at herself, and subconsciously turned her head to look, and the moment she looked at each other, she really saw the face of the witch in red under the hood, and she was suddenly shocked, and her eyes were so hanging that they popped out of their sockets.
"Isn't that coincidental? Why are you here! ”
Seeing her shocked look, Nikita immediately verified her guess and smiled at her: "This is exactly what I want to say, after a year, I didn't expect to reunite with Parnia's 'Black Princess' here, it's really fate." ”
The female ninja quickly raised her index finger to cover Sakura's lips, shook her head repeatedly, and motioned to her, "Don't make a noise."
"What, Your Highness doesn't want to reveal your true identity?"
"You keep it secret for me, and I'll keep it secret for you, okay?" Veronica tries to form an offensive and defensive alliance with her.
Nikita laughed dumbly. She didn't know what Veronica was up to, but she didn't have any secrets to hide from them. Just as she was about to refuse, she saw Veronica clasping her hands together and waving at her again and again, her eyes full of pleading. Thinking that they had a good relationship with each other in the past, most of the other party had unspeakable secrets, and I couldn't bear it for a while.
In addition to personal relationships, Nikita also had to consider the identity and status of the other party. Offending Veronica was tantamount to offending Parniabor, the most relied ally of the Far Eastern Lighthouse, and the consequences were by no means something she could afford, so she finally nodded reluctantly and promised to hide her identity for her.
"I'm not going to reveal your identity, but you have to promise me that you must not hurt Roland and his friends." Nikita draws her own line.
Veronica breathed a sigh of relief and replied to her stupidly, "Do you still need to say this?" If it weren't for Mr. Roland, why would I have wronged myself like this! ”
Nikita was silent. She believed that Veronica had no intention of concealing her true identity and infiltrating Roland's team, but for some reason, her mood was even more irritated - as if someone was trying to steal her beloved, and she couldn't stop it in person, and the strangeness made her a little confused.
(Book friends reflect that the word "luck" is too inconsistent in fantasy texts, so I decided to change it to "potential", and I will replace it with potential one by one where I mentioned luck before, which should not affect everyone's reading.) )
