But when the two paladins rode their horses halfway through the race, they realized that something seemed to be wrong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The so-called "no village in front of the village and no shop in the back" probably refers to their current situation. In fact, they had been reminded that the road to the northeast might be infested with the Night Race, so they were advised to take a detour.

But because they wanted to get to their destination Mars earlier and leave some more time to be happy, the two completely ignored this warning. Taking advantage of the daylight and the good weather, the two of them went straight into this place of death where many travelers and caravans would rather go hundreds of miles than walk.

"I said, this place seems to be a little wicked, and you see that there is nothing on the ground but the bones of animals. Should we really take a detour? The short man asked.

"We're halfway there, where else can we go around? The way back is as long as the road ahead. The tall man was clearly disdainful of his companion's timidity, "Besides, we are the ones who can escape from the Demon Forest. Even if there are really any magical beasts here, they are only more powerful in the eyes of the neutral race, and they are nothing at all in the eyes of our light race. ”

Although the short man felt uneasy, he saw that his companion was so calm, and it was a sunny day at the moment, so he still ran forward with the other party. At the current rate, the short man reckons that he should be able to get out of this damn place before night falls, and he will be safe by then.

But in the end, this guess turned out to be completely wrong. The two of them rushed forward non-stop, until the sun went down, and there was still only a patch of yellow sand in front of them, and there was no shadow of any buildings in sight.

"I mean, we're not going to spend the night here tonight, are we?" The short man asked. To be honest, he felt a little scared in his heart now, because after all, this place was different from the Demon Domain Forest, there were only two people and two horses. If the Night Race were to carry out a sneak attack at night, as long as there were a little more of them, it would be difficult for them to parry.

The tall man looked around and gritted his teeth: "Walk forward for another hour, and if we still don't see any buildings, we'll spend the night here." Rest assured, we're all gold-level paladins, and we can handle it even if we encounter a Night Race. "Compared to a short man, he has a much better mental quality.

So the two of them endured hunger and fatigue, and ran wildly for a long time, until the surroundings were completely dark, and finally they had to slow down.

"Looks like it's inevitable to spend the night here tonight." The tall man looked around and said, "Damn, I don't even have a tree." It's strange, the weather is fine during the day, but at night you can't even see a star. ”

The speaker didn't feel anything wrong, but the short man listening to him felt a chill in his back and prayed for the blessings of the Light and the Holy Spirit.

"The Holy Spirit is on the third plane, and your prayers cannot be heard." The tall man sat down, plucked the kettle and bag of dry food from his horse, and said, "Let's eat something first." I'll stay here in a while, and you can sleep for a while. After two hours, you'll be on guard. ”

Although he was terrified, after all, after a tiring day, the short man had to take the water bag and dry food from the other party's hands, sit on the ground and chew slowly.

"What the hell is going on in this place, except that the sand is the stone." The tall man complained, "I didn't choose this direction if I knew it wouldn't have been, but now it's better that I can even see a person's shadow in one day." ”

When the tall man said this, his body went straight to the back, and suddenly he felt that the back of his head and body was soft and fluffy, and he couldn't help but touch it with his hand curiously: "Hey, why is there grass in this place?" ”

But soon he sensed that something was wrong with the grass, as the thing suddenly released a viscous liquid when it was touched by his hand. The tall paladin's hand was immediately stuck to the liquid and could no longer break free.

"Oops!"

In a panic, he tried to get up, but his back was already tightly clinged to the liquid.

"What's wrong!"

The short man didn't know what was going on here, but when he was already frightened and wanted to get up at this moment, he was also stuck there by the slime released by the "plant" under his body, and immediately shouted: "What is this? We've been attacked by the Night Race! ”

The tall man didn't realize that it was a ghost made by a creature in the night, but when he heard his companion's words, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately condensed some holy light on the hand that was stuck behind him.

"Bang!"

When the light flashed, everything around him was clearly visible.

It was indeed some moss-like substance that appeared on the surface, but there were only two small pieces, one under the dwarf man and one under himself. These mossy substances are black in color and have a pitch-black and shiny surface. As soon as something touches it, liquid immediately comes out of it.

"Zizizi"

Under the purifying power of the Holy Light, the originally viscous liquid actually lost its viscosity and transformed into a substance like water. The tall paladin sat up from the ground and looked around with the light in his hand that had not yet been extinguished.

The ground was visibly shaking at a very irregular frequency, and the extremely unstable sand and gravel were slowly sliding down into the craters that had just appeared. All of this is enough to prove that something is pouring out of the ground.

"What is this? Oh no, we've been ambushed by the Night Race! The short man shouted.

"Whoa!"

A flattened creature larger than an adult crocodile suddenly burst out of the ground, quickly shaking the remaining dirt on its back twice. The two paladins looked at each other, judging by each other's well-coordinated feet, the two large pincers on top of their heads, and the hook hanging high on their buttocks, this was undoubtedly a huge scorpion!

The big scorpion's body was covered with black mist, and its two middle eyes and six side eyes were flashing fiery red, facing the two paladins directly, its mouth trembling slightly, and it seemed that it was ready to eat a full meal at any time.

The tall paladin took a deep breath. Although he knew that the creatures in the dark night were strange, and he had seen many strange-looking species in the Demon Forest, it was the first time he had seen such a terrifying scorpion. Thinking of the "black moss" that had just glued himself and his companions to the ground, he had every reason to believe that it was a means for the large scorpion to prey on its prey.

"Oh my God, that's too much!" The short man next to him said in a trembling voice, "We're ...... this time Big trouble! ”

Looking at each other's gaze, I saw that around the two of them, countless red light points lit up one after another. The ground continued to shake, and it seemed that the scale of the Scorpion Legion had not yet been fully revealed. To be continued.
