Chapter 178: Demonic Suspicion

The many passages on the ground floor of the Mithril Library, which lead to various stacks, are now nests of mysterious monsters, transformed to resemble ant nests.

After searching for 10 minutes, and with no sign of the monster, Rael impatiently let the group move on.

As for the stout man who was half-unconscious, he was ruthlessly left to die.

"Don't... Other... The sturdy man, who was almost in a state of shock, seemed to hear everyone's decision and struggled to ask Yang Hao for help.

Yang Hao just glanced at him and followed the large army without hesitation.

Joke! I didn't do it to save him before, I didn't have to do it for a reason, and it was up to me?

After that, everyone consciously moved away from the wall, and the torches lit up their heads, and they walked cautiously, but they were not attacked again, did these monsters just die down? After walking for 10 minutes, the group finally walked out of the passage and came to a library.

The books on the first floor were ordinary books of little value, which might be of interest to scholars who studied the history of the Grey Dwarves, but apparently there were no such people present.

The low value also saved the books from destruction, and the books on the shelves remained almost intact, with only a few shelves destroyed.

Hundreds of years have not left these books in dust, and there is a mysterious power similar to the Cleansing Witch Circle, which is unique to the Grey Dwarves and cannot be used by humans.

Once inside, Rael paused, took out a map and checked it out, before giving the order to cross the stack.

Yang Hao frowned after receiving the order, this huge library gave Yang Hao a very bad feeling, the bookshelves were clustered, arranged very closely, and the passages formed by the intervals between each other were very narrow, and at most three people could walk side by side. But this inevitably leads to crowding, so when you enter the stacks, the queue is divided by bookshelves.

Yang Hao asked Xiao Xinyan and Lao Tang to follow him, and just as the ultrasonic reconnaissance cooled down, it was immediately launched.

The result of the feedback made Yang Hao subconsciously hold the hilt of the sword, and not far in front of him, there were a large number of creatures entrenched on the top of the bookshelf, judging from their size, they were the mysterious monsters that attacked everyone before.

Oh no, this number is no match for the enemy, and the previous monster must have gone back to move the rescuers.

Yang Hao's brain was running frantically, thinking about how he would respond.

Among the players present, only Xiao Xinyan and Lao Tang can trust and fight side by side, not to mention that there are three forces here now, the player troops formed by Laxie alone are divided into eight small groups, and it is absolutely impossible to say that it is absolutely impossible to unite and fight the enemy, I am afraid that the biggest danger will come from the "comrades-in-arms" around him.

So Yang Hao didn't plan to tell what he had discovered, he quietly took Xiao Tang and the others to squeeze into the middle of the team, close to Rael's position.

Cheng Jiahui paid more attention to Yang Hao because of his son, and when he saw their abnormal behavior, he immediately became suspicious in his heart, and turned his head to Wang Kai beside him and whispered:

"Xiao Wang, something is wrong, investigate."

"Yes, boss." Wang Kai is the captain of Cheng Jiahui's bodyguards, and he has received a lot of favors from the Cheng family and is very loyal to Cheng Jiahui.

Veteran scout, the witchcraft he chose in the game is also related to reconnaissance, the charm animals in the natural school are not brilliant in battle, but they have incomparable advantages in reconnaissance, and there will be no magic fluctuations without using magic power, and it is more secretive than Yang Hao's ultrasonic reconnaissance when used.

I saw Wang Kai silently, quietly approaching the bookshelf, and seven or eight small and sturdy mice ran out of his trouser legs, and disappeared into the darkness silently along the shadow of the bookshelf.

Enchanted animals have a restriction that they can only control one animal at a time, but not for very small creatures.

After a few minutes, Wang Kai's face changed, and the two mice cut off contact with him, not caring about feeling sorry for these carefully domesticated and improved scout rats, and gave Cheng Jiahui a dangerous code.

"Follow me." Cheng Jiahui decided to follow Yang Hao first, this kid has more information.

In such a narrow space, the two parties squeezed around Rael, and soon Yang Hao discovered Cheng Jiahui's intentions, and secretly scolded the old fox, and didn't care about him, because they had entered the encirclement of monsters, and those monsters were staring at their brains on the bookshelf.

Within a minute, the first victim appeared, still from a small family, who did not dare to provoke Rael, and wanted to take advantage of it, walking on the outskirts of the line, the easiest to attack.

A thin man with a longbow habitually walked last, the darkness making his nerves tense, but he still ignored the top of his head.

Two supple arms wrapped around his head, pulling him into the darkness.

"What sound?" Fellow archers nearby asked vigilantly when they heard the movement.

"What? I didn't hear anything. The others responded in confusion, a little unhappy in their hearts, complaining that this guy was okay and scary.

"Wait, Sick... Hmm..."Someone finally noticed that something was wrong, and before he could finish speaking, he was attacked in the same way.

In a panic, he decisively triggered the bronze snake badge in his hand, but it was not teleported.

"Enemy attack!"

In fact, after the second attack, the monsters began to attack as a whole, and in an instant, most of the people from the small families on the periphery were lost, and Yang Hao also had a few people on his side, but fortunately, their teammates quickly dragged them back, but they were seriously injured, and wherever they were caught by the monsters, their skin was opened.

Yang Hao was also attacked, but he was prepared, grabbed the strange hand that wanted to grab his head with his backhand, and pulled it down violently, pulling the monster off the bookshelf.

For the first time, everyone saw the true face of the monster:

The humanoid's thin body was slumped, its skin dry and wrinkled, and it looked no more than the height of a halfling.

None of the others, including Rael, recognized this monster, but Yang Hao recalled the origin of the monster at a glance.

Lockthroats, humanoid monsters that have disappeared for hundreds of years, were last seen 200 years ago during a continent-wide campaign against demons.

Lockthroats are native creatures of the continent and have built a powerful civilization, but an unspeakable mysterious power has cursed them, causing the entire race to degrade their intelligence, shedding their hair and bending their spines, turning them into the ugly appearance they are today.

The original appearance of the lockthroat monsters is no longer known, and in the battle against the demons, the Chinese Ming Continent is not because of what kind of contribution they have made, but because they are the only race that has defected to the demons.

What is even more unbelievable is that the demon actually accepted them, and for whatever reason, the demon withdrew from the abyss as the losing side after the battle.

The Lockthroat Monsters that were left behind were wiped out across the continent and completely extinct three years after the end of the war.

Not many people remember them now, Yang Hao was the one who occasionally saw the relevant descriptions when he was investigating the Fly Demon and the Spike Demon.

After the lockthroat monster fell to the ground, it rolled around and was about to get back up, Tang Zijin slashed at its neck with a sword, but it didn't break the skin, and its wrinkled and rough skin had a strong physical defense.

The sheep's head staff in Xiao Xinyan's hand surged with a large amount of magic mixed with pain, and smashed hard against the celestial spirit cover of the screaming lock-throated monster.

In an instant, the Heavenly Spirit Cover of the Throat Locking Monster held back a piece, roaring indiscriminately, his steps were vain, and black and red blood flowed from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, with a strong smell of sulfur.

Xiao Xinyan's attack showed that the Lockthroat Monster's magic resistance was not high, and the people present were all the elite among the players, who immediately noticed this and switched to witchcraft attacks.

"Rush out with me!" Rael was not surprised when he saw the monster's appearance, and ordered everyone to attack in the direction of travel.

Rael's change in expression was seen correctly by Yang Hao, who had been paying attention to him, so Yang Hao knew that this mission would most likely have something to do with demons, which was not good.

The Fly Demon and the Spike Demon are only the lowest level of demons, and this has also made Yang Hao suffer enough, you can imagine the strength of the middle and high-level demons.

At the same time, it also made him salivate even more for the delicious candy hidden behind the danger, and followed Rael's footsteps a little faster.
