Chapter 174: The Intersection
"Wait a minute!" Ye Yu raised his hand and signaled that the team had stopped, and everyone stopped as they said. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info then he reached out to Arnold.
Arnold understood, handed him the ball of light in his hand, Ye Yu took the ball of light, only to feel a warmth in his hand, and even the pain of peeling from time to time at that time was slightly relieved.
He crouched down, the ball of light moving down, and his brow furrowed.
At this time, under the illumination of the ball of light, there was almost no slime on the dirt road in front of him, which was completely different from the situation where a piece of slime was almost up to the instep behind him, as if there was an invisible wall here to block the slime.
At the same time, on the ground of the road ahead, there are some messy footprints, some beasts and some people.
At this time, everyone had already gathered around, and seeing the scene on the ground, Victoria said, "Has anyone been here?" And monsters? ”
Arnold said: "Old Ye, it seems that our inference is wrong, this side of the past, it doesn't seem to be the intestines, right?" ”
"Hmm!" Ye Yu nodded, looked at the squirming mud wall behind him, and then looked at the road ahead, obviously, the road ahead was much wider, even if the four of them walked side by side, it was very spacious, and at the same time, the ground was dry, and there was no kind of water-like transparent, viscous digestive liquid like mucus.
"Isn't it the bowels of monsters that we walked before?" Kane glanced back as well.
"We're going straight all the way, and if it's really a monster's intestine, we'll have to bend a few times." Victoria said.
Ye Yu frowned, stood up, and suddenly asked Arnold beside him: "What do you think?" ”
Arnold shook his head and said: "There is too little information at the moment, I don't have a clue, but what Victoria said makes sense, if it is an intestine, it should also be a curved structure, and it is a bit strange to go straight all the way." Of course, it is not excluded that the body structure of this monster is different from other creatures, after all, the way it devours people is too bizarre. ”
"Why do you have to think that this place is inside the body of a monster, a living thing? Maybe it's a magic trap, or a natural danger or something. Victoria said.
Ye Yu thought for a moment and said, "What you said is also possible, everything can't be prematurely decided." Arnold and I just assumed that it was inside the monster, but seeing the road ahead, Arnold's assumption and I seemed a little unreliable. ”
There are beasts and human beings, and the traces of the footprints are still very new, apparently recent. Although the footprints were messy, they could still tell that someone or a monster had walked this way, saw the wriggling mud wall in front of them, and then turned around and left.
Obviously, in front of it is a place where people and monsters can survive, at least it is safe, and the worst thing is that it is safer than the "intestines" they came to, otherwise monsters and people will not choose the way forward, not the "intestines".
If this is the digestive system inside the monster's body, there is no way that there will be traces of the existence of the creature.
After all, if the footprints are left on the ground, it means that they will not recover slowly, and the footprints in the "intestines" will be restored.
"Let's go." Ye Yu handed back the ball of light to Arnold, and then walked first, saying as he walked: "Next, we have to be careful, talk and walk ......."
As he spoke, he looked at the armor on his feet, and there was a sound of "exaggerated exaggeration" on the ground at this time, and there were sounds echoing in the road ahead, after all, they were walking in an open place, and some echoes were normal.
He paused, and so did the people behind him.
"Let's take off our armor first." Ye Yu said.
Now that the ground is dry, and there is no strong corrosive digestive slime, there is no need to wear armor, and there are people and monsters here, most likely other members of the team, if there is a battle, wearing these ill-fitting armor will only get in the way.
However, there are still some traces of slime on the armor, which naturally cannot be touched, and they can't take it off without touching the armor.
Arnold sighed and said, "I still have a water magic record scroll, alas, although it is a low-level magic, it costs 500 gold coins at all, and I need one for a change of clothes, and I will be poor sooner or later!" ”
When Victoria heard this, she smiled helplessly and said, "I'll give you 1,000 gold coins later." ”
When Arnold heard this, he immediately took out a record scroll with a ripple of magic color from his storage bag.
After being drenched in soup again, Ye Yu and the others took off their armor smoothly, and Victoria also put on the feminine dress, which was a set of cloth clothes, well-cut, and obviously designed for battle, slightly looser than her original clothes, but it did not affect the battle.
And after being washed by the water, everyone also felt more comfortable.
After all, although those highly corrosive digestive liquids are as clear as water, they are still sticky, and when they walk on them, everyone is still psychologically uncomfortable. With every step, my legs and stomach are a little uncomfortable and weak.
Although it is known that it is psychological, they subconsciously repel these digestive mucus and feel disgusted. But it's really an unavoidable annoyance.
Fortunately, the digestive liquid is insoluble in water and can be easily washed away by water, and now that the water is flushed, everyone has a refreshing feeling of being "clean" on a psychological level and not being surrounded by "disgusting mucus".
The armor he took off was also taken back by Arnold one by one.
Everyone has no objection to this, first of all, this guy is by nature, and he will never let go of anything that can be sold for money.
Second, no one knows if they will encounter the "intestines", so it's better to keep them.
After cleaning up, the four of them walked in a line, Ye Yu in front, Arnold in the back with the light source in his hand, Victoria second, and Kane behind His Palace.
The passage is spacious, and the mud walls on both sides already have the touch of earth, and with a little force, you can imprint palm prints on this mud wall, and it will not automatically recover its toughness like the "intestines".
The soil is soft.
The illumination range of the ball of light is limited, and it is dark and misty a few meters away, and it is impossible to see the road ahead, there are traces of people and monsters here, and everyone does not dare to make too much noise, nor dare to walk too fast, and every step is carefully guarded.
In the present situation, if there is an enemy, it is in the dark, and they are in the light.
Dark passageways, limited lighting, potential monsters, quiet atmosphere, careful vigilance.
Let them unconsciously touch their weapons.
Suddenly, Ye Yu stopped and grabbed the ball of light in Arnold's hand suddenly, the light suddenly dimmed, and with the other hand, I don't know where Ye Yu got the black cloth, quickly covered the ball of light, and when it landed, everyone's eyes were dark.
Suddenly losing the light source, both Victoria and Kane nervously drew their weapons.
The green light flashed, and Victoria's arrow was wound.
"Don't make a sound." Ye Yu said in a very low voice.
Then they saw a ray of light shining in front of them, and a faint human voice.
And through that ray of light, everyone also saw a general outline ahead, in front, there was a corner, and this ray of light came out of the corner.
And through the brightness of this ray of light, everyone can roughly see the silhouette of the people around them, and if they get close enough, they can also read expressions and the like.
Ye Yu stepped forward slowly, his body squatted slightly, and his head quietly poked out. Then he quickly shrank back.
He motioned for the group to step back.
After withdrawing from a distance of half a meter, Ye Yu said quietly.
"Behind the corner is another pathway, parallel to us, in a U-shape with us, with about three people camping, all elite-level, probably the team participating."
Everyone looked at each other.
There are really other contestants! Are they also being devoured by the dark soil?
"Let's not be in a hurry, and let's hear what they have to say." Ye Yu lowered his voice and said.
The crowd nodded.
Then, they all crept forward, crouched against the wall, and listened carefully.
And the voices over there seem to be full of complaints.
"This damn game! Did the organizers get kicked in the head by a donkey? ”
