I am the dividing line without discipline-
Su Xinghe followed the black dwarves slowly through the underground world, even the old dwarfs who have been living in the underground world sometimes can't find their way home. It's not that the dwarves don't remember their way, it's that the environment of the underworld is always changing.
While some rocks may not change for tens of thousands of years, they can be unexpected. Because some time ago, Seram and the others unleashed the power of the Holy Order without scruples to fight, especially the crazy fight between the two cows, Arno and Senaru. Even if the two of them acted more than they actually fought, the impact on the rocks beneath the stratum was real.
Rocks can absorb a certain amount of impact, but at the same time, they will also transmit vibrations, and the underground channels will amplify certain vibrations and eventually cause rock fractures. In less than three hours after leaving the ground, Su Xinghe found that they had entered an extremely dangerous area. But this area had just been explored by Chen Kai and the others a few days ago, and Su Xinghe and the others were completely advancing according to Fei Yun's map, but along the way, especially after they passed through the falling rock that crushed six players, Su Xinghe and his party had already encountered thirteen small earthquakes.
From time to time, huge rocks fell from the shaking passages, and several unlucky players from the Zodiac League and other guilds were smashed and their brains shattered. The army of more than 5,000 players almost all turned into frightened birds along the way, and as soon as a small rock rolled down from the surrounding area, they began to observe the situation overhead. In this case, it is impossible to move fast, and the most important thing is that the player's morale is still low.
Even the black dwarves sensed that there was something wrong with the road, but they had walked through more dangerous passages than this, and the underground passages that burned the ground were far more terrifying than the unstable rocky roads of the current dìng. Of course, these black dwarves also felt that the roads around them were a little more dangerous, so they wanted the players to be able to step on the ground a little lighter, so in an instant, all the players' steps changed from the original slow speed to the turtle speed. From the original action is a little obscene, it has become a way of traveling like a devil entering the village.
Originally, the player's speed of action was slow, and after acting in this way, the speed will not be even faster. However, in this way, they dodged several rockfall attacks overhead, and the safety factor was greatly increased. It's just that this kind of movement speed makes the player leaders, including Su Xinghe, feel anxious, knowing that according to the old dwarf's calculations, it will take at least ten days to reach the dwarven city underground from Chen Kai's Berkna Town. Of course, this was due to the dwarves' footsteps and the fact that they had to explore the road along the way, but now this speed directly extended the original ten days journey a lot.
But in the face of this situation, no one can tell everyone to let go of their feet and act quickly, because everyone is afraid that their heads will be smashed by the rocks that fall from their heads. As a result, all player leaders have to acquiesce to this way of marching, waiting until they leave the dangerous rocky passage to speed up the team.
"Old Su! What do you think? Is there any danger ahead? Zhao Tiezhu, who was walking at the back of the team, asked Su Xinghe, who was walking at the front, with a helmet on his head, in the team channel, although the underground passage was quite spacious, but this kind of spaciousness was limited to two people in parallel. The team of more than 5,000 players has been stretched to more than a kilometer, and in the winding underground passages, such a team basically sees the head and you have absolutely no idea where the tail is. If the people in front are attacked, then the people in the rear will not even be able to rescue. …,
Originally, Zhao Tiezhu was supposed to be in front as a powerful shield, but no matter how strong he was, he couldn't compare to the dwarves, so he was caught up and slipped to the back to protect those spellcasters and priest players. However, Zhao Tiezhu still kept in touch with Su Xinghe in front of him, and basically had to talk every minute.
"It's nothing! What about you? What about those guys in the back? Su Xinghe watched the black dwarf lightly touch the rock, identify the next direction, and began to drill into a three-way crossing, because the black dwarf did not allow players to leave marks on the rock, those thieves could only use their memories to record the appearance of the surrounding rocks and then carve the map for future trade routes. In this way, although the road to the city of dwarves is protected, it also guides players to get lost if they lose the map.
Of course, the dwarves can't guarantee that all players will obey the rules, at least Zhao Tiezhu saw those players behind him secretly leave some marks on the rock wall. He didn't stop it, because he was worried about what he would do if he got lost in the future.
"What else? Still don't give up on leaving marks on the wall! Zhao Tiezhu's words were full of helplessness, because he found that the black dwarves had used the simplest method to turn the marks left by the players into useless waste. They directly led a group of people around the underground passage, three times in one place, and several times the players in front saw the figures of the players behind the palace.
"Let them go! , these dwarves are really dead-eyed, and they can't draw a map like this! Su Xinghe looked at Fei Yun who drew a cross on the map again, this was the third time he had drawn a cross in the same position, obviously because of the dwarves' clever guiding skills, another map of Fei Yun had become a waste. Of course, it can't be said to be a scrap, at least the previous part of the road is still correct, but the back road still has to be torn down and redrawn.
While Su Xinghe and Zhao Tiezhu were chatting, Fei Yun walked to the side of the old dwarf Mithera and asked, "Old man! When will we find the right path? ”
"Don't worry! You can find it right away, we dwarves are the best guides in the underworld, and there is no way that we dwarves can't find it! Engels, what's the matter with you? Why did it go the other way around again?! An embarrassed blush flashed across the pale face of the old dwarf Mithera, in fact, his words were not very accurate, dwarves are indeed the best guides in the underworld, but only if your life force is as long as that of dwarves.
There was once a dwarven explorer who led a party of adventurers deep underground, and a few years later the team came out alive, and the people of Guò their map discovered that the party had spanned an entire empire in the underworld before returning from the same way again. The dwarven explorer, with his amazing ability to guide the way, had already made this historic adventure, and after leaving the underworld, the group of adventurers beat the dwarf with their fists for three days and three nights, almost crippling the dwarf.
Of course, it doesn't mean that dwarves are absolutely unreliable in guiding the way, at least in the underground world, dwarves are definitely much better directional than ordinary people, and their patience is much better than that of ordinary people. Coupled with the fact that they have lived in the underground world for a long time, the dwarves have a good understanding of the underground tunnels, so it is absolutely correct to say that the dwarves are the best guides in the underground world.
However, Engels the black dwarf was definitely not a reliable dwarf guide, in fact, it was the old dwarf's plan to let Engels lead the way. After all, he had already noticed the players' small movements, and in order to protect the safety of the city, all the underground passages leading to the city must not leave any markers. So the old dwarf Mithera had to get players to abandon this practice of leaving markers, and drawing maps could but also erase some iconic places. …,
It's just that the old dwarf Mithera didn't expect that Engels would be able to lead the road unreliable to such a journey, and he couldn't find the way after going around three times in one place. In the face of such a top-level road idiot, even the old dwarf Mithera's face is more than the city wall, and he is a little unbearable. Under Fei Yun's gaze, the old dwarf's eyes flickered, and if it weren't for his physical discomfort, he would definitely have kicked Engels' ass by now.
"Engels! Do you know the way home? Standing behind Engels was the silver dwarf Seram, and the face of his guard captain Seram was not good-looking. He knew that his captain of the guard was a road idiot, but he didn't even remember the way back to the city before the other party arrived.
"Don't worry! Your Excellency Serram, although I, Engels, am a road idiot, I can't even remember the way home, and this is what Elder Mithera asked me to do on purpose! Engels wiped the sweat from his forehead and answered his question about his future king, of course, 50% of what he said was true, and the remaining half was because Engels had forgotten the way back to the city.
"That's it! Then you go ahead! But at the next intersection I remember that the left and right sides have already been walked, so you don't have to go a second time! Serram nodded when he heard Engels' words, but he couldn't help but remind the other party, lest Engels go the wrong way again and make a joke.
"Got it! Lord Serram! Engels wiped the sweat from his forehead again, if it weren't for the silver dwarf reminding him, it is estimated that he would have forgotten which two of the three forks below had been walked. In fact, even if Fei Yun was asked to give the map to Engels, Engels would not necessarily recognize which roads he had taken.
Hearing the indifferent conversation between Engels and Serram, both Su Xinghe and Fei Yun couldn't help but have green muscles jumping above their heads. As for the old dwarf, Mithera had already coughed continuously, and finally simply turned her head and fell asleep on the back of the other dwarf.
"This old fox! Old bastard! Whether it was Su Xinghe or Fei Yun, he could only scold each other in his heart for the old dwarf's expression, but on the surface, he could only put on an expression that he hadn't heard the conversation between the silver dwarf and Seram.
While Su Xinghe and his party continued to wander around the underground world, Chen Kai and Guan Yu once again came to the valley where a large number of demonized cavalry and soldiers were distributed. By the time they stepped into the area, a group of ten demonized soldiers had already rushed towards them howling with weapons in hand. At the same time, not far away, a group of hundred-level demonized cavalry was slowly turning their horses' heads and rolling from a slope on the hill.
"Those soldiers are yours! This troop of cavalry is mine! Almost as soon as he saw those demonized cavalrymen, Guan Yu couldn't help but wave the Guan Knife in his hand and was about to rush out, and the hundreds of players behind him wanted to rush with him almost as soon as he raised his weapon. But before Guan Yu's war horse started, Chen Kai directly grabbed him.
"Wait a minute!" Chen Kai gestured to Guan Yu and waved his hand at Zhou Xuan not far behind him. Zhou Xuan saw Chen Kai's gesture and slowly pulled up the huge heavy bow in his hand, shooting an armor-piercing arrow with a spiral arrow into the grass not far behind those demonized soldiers.
The sharp arrows crossed hundreds of meters with a whistle and landed in the grass. No one heard the screams, but a few drops of blood splashed were captured by Chen Kai, who was holding a telescope, and then he directly signaled everyone to retreat.
"When did these inhuman monsters get more brains?" Although Guan Yu didn't see the blood beads splashed in the grass, he understood very well the meaning of the feather arrow that sank into the grass. If there was no problem in the grass, Chen Kai would not let everyone retreat, it was precisely because there was a problem in the grass that Chen Kai would choose to retreat, and when the group retreated, those demonized cavalry only pursued for less than three or four hundred meters before giving up the pursuit. …,
"No matter how much brains you have, you're still brain-dead!" Wang Xuewen wiped the staff in his hand and said, this time Chen Kai brought a full fifty arcane mages and arcane masters, and the plan was to use the arcane lightning mixed with arcane lightning to paralyze these demonized cavalry at the beginning of the battle. The paralyzed cavalry could only be slaughtered, and although Drake only brought a hundred cavalry to help Chen Kai, these cavalry were enough to kill a dozen paralyzed demonized cavalry in an instant.
It can be said that although Chen Kai and the others have less than five hundred people, including Drake's cavalry, they can directly overturn a team of hundred-level demonized cavalry in a short period of time. This is not bragging, but having real examples. Because not long ago, Chen Kai and the others had already done this once, killing nearly a hundred demonized cavalry in less than five minutes, if it weren't for the more than three hundred demonized cavalry that came later, it was too much and too strong, plus the magic power of the spellcasters had been exhausted, Chen Kai and they probably wouldn't be so wolfish as they were.
"You can't say that! Although they are a little brainless, at least they already know how to lay a trap! After Xu Fei finished speaking, he saw Guan Yu's blushing face, according to Wang Xuewen's words, if those demonized soldiers were brain-dead, then Guan Yu, who was going to rush forward at the beginning, was also brain-dead. Of course, this is not to say that Guan Yu has a low IQ, but because in the past, he has always had a hard fight with the demonized soldiers, and these demonized soldiers and demonized cavalry have never set traps.
"But I don't think this trap can be imagined by the heads of these demonized soldiers! It seems that the leader behind them has not been completely demonized, at least he still retains some intelligence! After seeing Guan Yu's expression, Xu Fei knew that he couldn't stab him too much, so he turned to the unknown leader creature who had been trying to outflank him with the demonized cavalry not long ago.
"Monsters with IQs are the hardest to deal with! I hate such monsters! Wang Xuewen continued to play with his staff, and the secret aura that flashed at the top of the staff from time to time made the entire staff exude an extremely beautiful magical color. But in Fei Yun's words, Wang Xuewen is just showing off, and he is really sassy.
"That's it! Find someone to attract the blame, we will slowly clean up the periphery! I'm going to cut it down with hundreds of demonized soldiers, and that commander won't be able to figure it out!" Chen Kai stood at the entrance of the valley, but as soon as he spoke, he saw a demonized soldier commander wearing black and gold armor appear at the mouth of the valley, he stared at the blood-red eyes and gestured at Chen Kai's neck with his hand. This posture is extremely arrogant, but the other party does have this kind of arrogant confidence.
"I'll go! A ninth-order demonic leader, or a creature with a half-lord template! Second Brother Guan, that guy belongs to you! Wang Xuewen was stunned for a moment when he saw the avatar of the guy in the system icon, and then said directly to Guan Yu in a shocked tone.
"You want me to die! I'm going to keep my experience for upgrades! Seeing the other party's super high level, Guan Yu asked himself if he had no way to kill the other party under the siege of hundreds or thousands of demonized soldiers. The one who can take the head of the enemy general in the army is the only fierce general in ten thousand, although Guan Yu has the same name as the second brother Guan in history, but this does not mean that he is as fierce as the other party. At least for now, Guan Yu thinks that he is not many miles away from the second brother of the Martial Saint Guan in history, so Guan Yu does not have the courage and ability to run to find death.
"What should I do?" Xu Fei asked Chen Kai, obviously there was this macho male-level demonized commander Cun Zài, and their idea of leveling up demonized soldiers was basically difficult to realize.
"What else can I do? Go on! I don't believe he's going to run out of the castle and bite me on the ass! Chen Kai waved his hand and said, and under his command, all the players began to dismount and walk. As they approached the valley, they spilled small things on the ground from time to time, and things like clamps and nails basically covered the way.
"Is that okay?" Such a question appeared in Guan Yu and the others' minds, and at the same time, it also surfaced in the minds of Su Xinghe and the others. Because they are now facing an extremely serious problem, in front of them is an extremely wide underground crack, which originally collapsed directly after several players stepped on it, along with the opposite rock bridge.
The hapless players who were sent to explore the path screamed and fell down the endless cliff, and the elongated sound lingered in the ears of the group for nearly a minute before disappearing. Now the problem that Su Xinghe and they are facing is to erect a rope bridge on this cliff that is more than ten meters wide, and it is Fei Yun who came up with this idea.
"Don't worry! No problem! Fei Yun, who set up the heavy crossbow and was about to shoot the crossbow arrow to pull the chain, said this, and he did not stop moving in his hand, and a chain was quickly fixed to the tail of the crossbow arrow...... )
