Chapter 61: Vines

Not everyone has the confidence of Lucy, especially the candidates who saw the scene of strange insects hunting spiders, and they didn't dare to climb down the mountain for anything.

After a moment of silence, this group of candidates took the lead in the direction that Parisstone said, since the cliff was no longer passable, they could only minimize the time spent in the back mountain.

"It's said that they will go down from here, but as long as they don't have the ability of those two people, they are just a dead end, right?"

Pacha walked up to Pariston, looked at the departing candidate, and touched his chin:

"In this way, you can brush off a lot of people, and when they rush to the vine jungle exhausted, they will find that the monsters there are even more dangerous than those on the cliffs."

"Ms. Gailu is still too soft-hearted, and I originally expected that there should be only a few dozen people left in the second exam."

Pariston glanced at him, smiled noncommittally, and turned to walk towards the airship: "Then I'll go back first, the president is suddenly going to hold a meeting on supplementing the twelve earthly branches, and I'll trouble you here, Mr. Pacha." ”

After the airship lifted off, Pacha looked around and made sure he was the only one left here, so he walked to the edge of the cliff and kicked a rock on the cliff with his legs.

The strange insects felt the movement above and poked their heads out again, and Pacha touched the other side of the cliff, and jumped down a winding path while the spiders and strange insects were attracted to their attention.

The path of his descent was twists and turns, and every time he fell, several strangely shaped monster heads would pop out from above, and Pacha would prostrate himself on the rock, so that his breath would almost disappear and merge with the stone. After repeating this a dozen times, Pacha could already see the ground in the distance.

"Rock bugs and multi-eyed spiders only feed during the day, but once you know their habitat, you can avoid them without waiting until night – which is certainly not an easy task for candidates."

After jumping to the ground, Pacha raised his wrist and looked at the time: "It's been half an hour, I don't know where the two candidates have been?" Although I know that they are also telekinesis, how can this speed be faster than my professional relic hunter? ”

"It's really terrifying......

With a sigh of emotion, Pacha stretched out his hand to the clearing in front of him, and as his telekinesis fluctuated, a giant rat appeared out of thin air.

He jumped on the back of the giant rat and pointed in the direction, and the giant mouse ran towards the jungle with him.

……

Dragged by Lucy to jump off a thousand-meter-high cliff, Rhodes was not afraid, and seemed to firmly believe that Lucy would not harm her.

In the process of falling, the spider in the cliff wall was cut off by Lucy's black wings as soon as its head poked out, until the two were about to approach the ground, Lucy pulled Rhodes and held her in his arms in the way of a princess hug, and at the same time flapped the black wings to stop the falling trend.

When Luxi landed, dozens of hideous spider heads fell behind him.

Putting down Rhodes in his arms, Lucy retracted the black wings and glanced at the jungle in the distance:

"The vine jungle, the lost temple, it sounds like a product of a tropical island, how can it be in a landlocked country like Kachia?"

Rod kicked the sand off his boots and hurried to keep up with Lucie:

"Uncle Martyr also thought it was strange when he first came here, obviously surrounded by sandy soil, but a jungle appeared very suddenly, no matter how you look at it, it is out of place."

According to him, the jungle is not only different from the soil, but also the weather. It is not uncommon to see the strange phenomenon of the sun outside in the sky and the heavy rain in the jungle. ”

Speaking of this, Rhodes rolled his eyes and smiled slyly:

"One thing you must be very interested in, all the creatures in that jungle are several times the size of the outside world."

Lucy was stunned for a moment, and then said thoughtfully:

"Is it because of some kind of mutation...... Or is it related to the Dark Continent? No, if it had something to do with the Dark Continent, the priest would have told me a long time ago. ”

"Hey, I knew I couldn't fool you. Uncle Martyr deliberately investigated for a week, but in the end found nothing. The creatures here don't exhibit anything unusual other than their size. For ordinary people, this mutated jungle is a murderous nightmare, but in the eyes of the uncle, it is no different from the resort, so he finally left disappointed. ”

"The Lost Temple that the examiner said is under the swamp in the deepest part of the jungle, and there is a mechanism that leads to the bottom of the swamp - Uncle has been there too, although it is just an ordinary ruin."

"If you're trying to find something here, you're going to be disappointed. But listen to the uncle, it's quite fun here, there are many strange creatures inhabiting the jungle, and I want to see the swamp people who stepped on bamboo poles that the uncle said. ”

Although Rod had laid out all the details of the jungle, Lucy was not disappointed, and he smiled and echoed:

"Swamp people, sounds quite interesting, anyway, there is plenty of time, we can go to that jungle and then go to the temple."

"Hey, Brother Hades is the best, then you quickly release your wings, and we will fly over directly, shall we?"

"Don't worry, it's rare to have this leisure time, just walk slowly, I don't want to pass this exam so early, otherwise I'll throw everyone else off that island in the first place." Rhodes told me about other fun things about the temple while I wasn't there, like what jokes did the confused Alice make? ”

"Good ~~~~~"

With the strength of the telekinesis' feet, even if Lucy didn't use Black Wings, the two of them would be in front of the vine jungle two hours later.

A kilometer away from the jungle, Lucy noticed a change in the soil beneath his feet, and the closer he got to the jungle, the wetter the land became, and at the same time emitted a cold, pungent fishy smell.

When he approached a towering tree with huge vines entwined, the vines with thick adult thighs suddenly came to life and rushed towards him like giant pythons.

At the same time, the tiny rattans that grew on the ground were also ready to move, coiling towards Lucie's feet, although they were not as thick as the trees, but they were covered with sharp barbs, and ordinary people would never be able to break free if they were caught in a bloody hole.

"What an unfriendly welcome."

Lucy pursed his lips and grabbed one of the vines, unable to break free no matter how much the vine writhed with the blessing of Nian. At the same time, the mental power around his body surged, and as soon as the remaining vines touched his body, they made a sound like lightning strikes, and in just a moment, the originally green vines became charred black, as if they had been burned by fire.

Rune trench coat, an ability that Lucy hadn't used for a long time, reappeared. Although Lucy was confident that the vines that looked like they were dancing with teeth and claws would not hurt him, he didn't want to see himself being tied up by the vines.

"Speaking of which, these vines are also the tyrants here, Uncle Martyr has witnessed the scene of the vines in the depths of the jungle that cover the sky and the sun eating everything, whether it is the birds in the sky or the beasts on the ground, they cannot escape their hunting."

With his hands behind his back, Rhodes jumped up to Lucy's side, looking curiously at the vine he had caught.

"It's normal, they're not slow, and with the advantage of being larger, it's hard for me to have more of them."

Lucy squeezed it slightly, and the vine tossed desperately, and at the same time, a large amount of white smoke liquid was scattered from its body, and Lucy slightly sideways to avoid it:

"Tsk, I'm strong enough to crush a person's neck now, and I haven't even broken it...... Coupled with the fact that it can also secrete this acidic corrosive liquid, it would be difficult for even a professional hunter to escape the scene that the priest said, right? ”

"Yes, so the vine gathering place that Uncle said is in the deepest part of the jungle, farther away than where the temple is, and other places are the same as here, only a few exist."

Rod tiptoed over a few lifeless rattans on the ground, turned around and asked with great interest:

"So, do you want to see the place where even a professional hunter could die, Brother Hades?"

Twisting the vines in his hand, Lucy smiled disapprovingly:

"It's rude to compare a professional hunter to me, Rode."

"We have two more days to explore the jungle."
