Chapter 398 Only Three Hundred Meters (Upper)

Time flies very quickly in the game, and a night is almost equivalent to four or five hours in real life, because the time in the game runs twice as much as it does in real life. However, people in the game do not feel the acceleration of time flow, because their own consciousness is speeding up with their surroundings, so when an hour of time passes in the game, they also feel that an hour has passed in their own consciousness. So when the game time acceleration is first started, some players who still need to go to work during the day enter the game and play for a while, they will go offline in a hurry and then go online again in a depressed way. Because they stayed in the game for seven or eight hours, they thought that in reality it had been a night, but when they went offline, they saw that it was still dark outside.

Chen Kai slept in the game all night, and in reality it was only four or five hours, so when he woke up from the sunlight shining in, his eyes were still a little muddy, but he quickly woke up. The heavy rain last night made Chen Kai enjoy the taste of a water curtain, although the bunker was undamaged from the outside, but who knew that it was a tofu slag project. A large amount of water seeped through the cracks in the roof, quickly forming a water stain on the ground.

If it weren't for the bunker's drainage system, he would have had to sleep in the water all night. Even so, Chen Kai worked for most of the night, resetting the tent and moving the campfire away from the water's edge. Chen Kai had to re-ignite the bonfire after moving it, after all, the heavy rain not only brought rain to the bunker, but also brought a lot of cold. As soon as midnight the temperature begins to drop rapidly, although it does not reach the state of dripping ice, it is not necessarily much higher. So in the middle of the night, in addition to burning the bonfire more vigorously, Chen Kai also took out a blanket from his backpack and draped it on his body.

When Chen Kai got up from the tent, he could be said to have crawled out of the blanket. When he climbed out, he had to shake the blanket, shaking out the uninvited guests who crawled in in the middle of the night to put the blanket in. Although dragons are not cold-blooded, few dragons like cold environments, except for a few frost-based dragons. In fact, most dragons prefer hot places, and some prefer to live in volcanic areas. Although the little one has the blood of a divine dragon, he is not necessarily afraid of the cold, but he still likes a warm environment. It's just that it prefers to stay in the blanket where Chen Kai sleeps than by the campfire, and the result is that Chen Kai ushered in a cold uninvited guest at the third watch in the middle of the night. The little thing's cold scale armor almost made Chen Kai think that a snake had crawled in, but soon the little guy's four paws told Chen Kai who it was.

For Chen Kai, breakfast is just a piece of heated bread and double the coffee brewed overnight, but the little one's breakfast is much more abundant, in addition to a piece of roast badger left over from last night's meal, there are also large pieces of tiger and a pot of sheep nǎi. The sheep nǎi is not very fresh, after all, it is something stored in the zài backpack, and it is also difficult to find fresh sheep nǎi in the fortress, let alone the cattle nǎi that have been cut off from supply. You must know that the nǎi cattle in the fortress were either killed by demons or turned into cattle after being scared to death, so those sheep nǎi were all brought up by pregnant female antelopes caught in the wild, and the price was absolutely outrageous. Only a person like Chen Kai who is willing to buy a few buckets of sheep in his backpack for a dozen gold coins in order to raise dragons would be willing to buy a dozen gold coins and put them in his backpack, and those dozen gold coins are still the price of a barrel.

In fact, if the little guy hadn't been born, killing Chen Kai wouldn't have been able to buy a bucket of a particularly fishy-smelling antelope nǎi for a dozen gold coins. After all, he didn't have the habit of drinking cow nǎi every day, and even if some people thought that antelope's nǎi was more nutritious, Chen Kai wouldn't drink it.

While the little guy was busy eating his breakfast, Chen Kai was trying to clean up the entrance to the bunker that he had blocked himself. Nearly two tons of wood and various sundries were blocked in the passage, so that Chen Kai cleaned up for a long time before it was completely opened, and what made Chen Kai most depressed was that these wood and sundries were moved by himself to block them. Of course, if Chen Kai came again, he would still choose to block the passage, after all, Chen Kai felt much safer. Hundreds of pieces of wood and debris took him nearly an hour to clean up before it was completely opened, and the first layer of the bunker made Chen Kai even more depressed. Because the whole layer was full of water, the water almost filled Chen Kai's waist, and finally Chen Kai waded through the water and walked out of the bunker with the little guy on his head.

The outside of the bunker was very calm, and the heavy rain overnight washed away all the filth and even the air became much fresher, but in the wild, the meaning of autumn is still very heavy. The earth is full of yellow grass leaves, and only under those dead grasses occasionally there will be tender green new green, and those young leaves are the favorite food of herbivores and the best food for them to store fat for winter. Of course, those blades of grass Chen Kai were useless, after all, he had no intention of digging up wild vegetables as dry food, and at the same time, he didn't have the idea of finding forage for Ral, the only thing he wanted now was to take advantage of the morning when there were no wild beasts to hurry early.

With the sound of horses' hooves constantly appearing, Chen Kai rode Raer on the weedy road at a rapid pace. Although the heavy rain did not turn the surface of the rocky road into muddy mud, it washed away the animal droppings on the ground, so that Lal no longer had to worry about stepping on those things, so Chen Kai moved fast and galloped nearly ten kilometers in almost an hour. Now Chen Kai has entered an unknown area, which means that the place where Chen Kai is now is an area that those players have never set foot in, and it is also outside the soldier patrol area of the Northern Fortress. It was impossible for Chen Kai to encounter any team of soldiers in this area, of course, he had not encountered any soldiers yesterday, after all, the strength of the fortress was now shrinking so badly that only ten teams would patrol outside every week. At the same time, due to the lack of provisions, more and more soldiers chose the richer Fergalo grassland instead of the wilderness where Chen Kai lived. After all, compared to the wilderness he was in now, there were undoubtedly more antelopes and antelope in the Fergaro steppes, and they could provide abundant food.

Chen Kai's speed on this wilderness is not very fast, about five kilometers per hour, it is not that Chen Kai does not want to raise the speed, but he finds that the road here is very badly damaged. All the rock-paved roads were as if they had been ploughed by a huge plough, which is of course not very accurate, because the rocks were lifted from below, as if a behemoth were in the ground to lift up the rock-paved ground. This did not happen along the road, but continued intermittently in the wilderness, and large areas of flat land were destroyed in a mess. In the face of this kind of ground, even if Chen Kai had the intention to let Lal move quickly, he had to slow down, after all, although those arched ground were not very wide, and they could be jumped over with a slight jump, but there were some places that were continuous, and continuous jumps would cause great damage to Lal's hooves, so Chen Kai could only reduce his speed and slowly move forward on these arched ground.

Although all the ground has the same appearance, the size is different, and it is obvious that the things that make these arches are not necessarily the same, and Chen Kai can imagine what kind of terrifying existence those guys who are walking underground. Therefore, Chen Kai also had to ask Lal to slow down and carefully pass through the arched ground, he was afraid that a huge monster would suddenly rush out from under these surfaces and swallow him whole with men and horses, which would not be fun. Chen Kai moved forward cautiously like this, but he had no way to stay out of the sneak attack when he was too careful.

After he rode Lal over a two-meter-wide arch, Lal horse's hooves stomped heavily on the ground a few times, and the tapping sound of the gravel being trampled was very harsh in the silent environment, but Chen Kai, who was used to this lonely environment, did not feel inappropriate. If Chen Kai would still feel nervous because of the crackling sound of the wind blowing the stones when he started to enter this arched road again, then after nearly ten minutes and nearly 100 meters of progress, he was already used to the sound of various small stones crashing. Chen Kai knew that it was terrifying to get used to a certain state, because those attacks might be hidden under the small voices that he had become accustomed to, so he would activate the Eye of the Stars every once in a while to scan the surrounding environment, but he didn't find any trace of the attacker. It wasn't until Lal stepped through the two-meter-wide arch, and then calmed Lal and let it recover at the same time, that Chen Kai's eyes flashed a silver light again, which was the state when the Eye of the Stars was activated, and at this moment, Chen Kai finally found a trace of mysterious reaction.

Behind him, under the arched ground he had just crossed, a bright red glow flashed in the vision of the Eye of the Stars. Chen Kai thought that there was a problem with his vision, but he soon realized that it was not the problem but a terrifying monster lurking underneath. Although the shadow of the monster no longer appeared in Chen Kai's field of vision, his player log captured what he saw at that moment and recorded it directly in the subsystem information.

"*** How can there be such a thing as an abyss digger here" Chen Kai's eyes kept twitching, there were only five words in his system information, but through information retrieval, he could find the specific information of the abyss digger from the player's information base. The five-meter-long body and two-meter-thick circumference make the Abyssal Digger look like a magnified deformed earthworm, but it is definitely more terrifying than an earthworm. At least the earthworm doesn't have a mouth full of large teeth, and those huge chewing teeth that are tens of centimeters long are enough to easily shred anything that enters its mouth. The most worrying thing about Chen Kai's eyes is that in the player's information database, the abyssal diggers also have a very bad reputation, they like to sneak attack the most, and they especially like to hide in the soil, and the moment the player turns around, they suddenly drill out and swallow people directly.

So far, in the encounters between players and the Abyssal Diggers, the player's record is 37 losses and zero wins, and it can be said that every player team that has been attacked by the Abyss Diggers has ended in total annihilation, and it is still the price of hanging in the stomach of the other party. Basically, every player who is attacked by the Abyss Digger is succeeded by a sneak attack from behind, and is split and eaten after a direct loss of the most combat-ready member of the team in an instant. Of course, the player's database is attacked by abyssal diggers encountered in the desert or Gobi Desert region, not on the grassland terrain with abundant vegetation like Chen Kai. Although this land is called wilderness by Chen Kai, in fact, its vegetation coverage is definitely enough for the word grassland, so it is different from the terrain where players encounter abyssal diggers.

However, everything in the terrain area is secondary, the important thing is that Chen Kai's system record will not be bad, and the monster that appeared in Chen Kai's field of vision at that moment was directly recorded after being seen, and this record will not change unless the monster is a special jīng Ying with a name. So Chen Kai is really about to face the attack of one, maybe more than one abyssal digger, and the reason why they didn't rush out directly may be that they haven't found a suitable opportunity or haven't completely woken up from sleep. Of course, Chen Kai would rather believe that it was the latter than the former, if it was the latter, it would mean that Chen Kai still had a chance to escape without waking up these diggers, but Chen Kai knew that it was absolutely impossible. Ral definitely weighed as much as a ton, and the sound of horses' hooves of this weight was definitely able to wake up the creatures underground, even the head had already been woken up, so Chen Kai swore that the diggers were definitely looking for an opportunity to sneak up on it.

Chen Kai is now in a very tangled state, and he doesn't dare to get off the horse and walk. Although then he would have a great chance of escaping, after all, the speed at which Lal jumped over the arches was too slow, and he could use his phantom steps to quickly pass through these arches, but maybe Chen Kai had just jumped off Lal and had not yet stood firm, and the digger who had hidden the killing intent would rush out of the ground in an instant, and Chen Kai would not even have time to hide at any time. As for continuing to stay on the war horse, it was definitely a slow suicide, Lal's goal was too big, and Chen Kai could see that the further south he went, the bigger the arch meant that the abyss diggers below would be bigger. There Lal can't run fast at all, Chen Kai will definitely die very miserably riding on Lal's back, because of this reason, Chen Kai is entangled, a trace of cold sweat came out of his head and slowly flowed down his cheeks into the armor under the helmet.

After thinking for nearly ten seconds, Chen Kai gritted his teeth and slowly released the reins, and then pressed his body hard with both hands on Ral's back, and quickly took off into the air and rushed forward. At the moment of getting out of the saddle, Chen Kai directly waved the pet badge to take Lal and the little guy in, and before Chen Kai landed, the abyss digger who was originally hiding under the arch suddenly appeared, accompanied by an earth-shattering sound of rock breakage, a huge abyss digger with a length of six meters rushed out of the ground and pounced towards Chen Kai's body that was still in the air. Rows of sharp teeth in its massive two-meter-wide mouth shook constantly, making a clicking sound as its mouth contracted.

"How can this guy's eyes see through the formation?" Such a thought flashed in Chen Kai's mind, but his body did not stop because of this, but accelerated desperately. The body in mid-air made a contraction movement, and the lower body doubled to tighten vigorously to let the body contract as much as possible. In this way, the area of Chen Kai's body that was blown by the wind became smaller, and the speed of the fall was accelerated in disguise. The most important thing is that Chen Kai's brain is constantly drooping, and his upper body is almost parallel to the ground, only in this way can he avoid the huge mouth that bounces from behind. With Chen Kai's efforts, his body finally fell to the ground safely by wiping the digger's mouth. The huge body and terrifying impact force that rubbed the armor from behind made Chen Kai fall heavily to the ground, and his health dropped by 173 points without receiving a direct attack, and the moment he landed, Chen Kai didn't have time to check if there was a negative state, but kicked the ground and flew out again. Of course, this time Chen Kai did not walk in a straight line, but grazed the digger's body that had not yet landed and rushed out to the right, only in this way could he dodge the attack of another abyssal digger who rushed out from the front.

But Chen Kai soon found that this was just the beginning, when the first abyss digger launched an attack on him, the entire ground seemed to come alive in an instant, more than a dozen huge abyss diggers rushed out of the ground under Chen Kai's nose, constantly creating terrible devouring black on Chen Kai's wild road, one huge terrible mouth after another kept rushing over Chen Kai's head, or brushed his back and rushed over, and even some almost bit Chen Kai's body. At that moment, Chen Kai's phantom step was running almost non-stop, and the speed at which the experience points of the phantom step were accumulating was also accelerating, and almost every second, a little bit of experience was rushed into the mastery-level skill experience slot.

In the continuous running, Chen Kai's Dou Qi value dropped rapidly, and almost every ten seconds, more than 100 points of Dou Qi disappeared from his Dou Qi slot, becoming the power under his feet when his phantom body was jumping. If it weren't for the set of knight officer armor on Chen Kai's body, it is estimated that Chen Kai's fighting energy consumption would be even greater, but also because of this set of armor, his speed was invisibly reduced by the weight, but it was also because of this set of armor that Chen Kai was able to only lose one hundred and ten points of health after being rubbed by the body of the abyss digger. If Chen Kai chooses to do so, it is estimated that he will not choose to take off his armor, but choose to let these damn earthworms all disappear from his face, but unfortunately the real goal he can achieve is still the one he will not choose. To make hundreds of abyssal diggers with a level of eighty disappear, it is estimated that only a whole team of saint-level powerhouses can come, and there must be a jīng magic mage among them.

Although the Abyss Diggers can't cast any spells, their terrifying ability to penetrate the ground and their terrifying physical defense make them not easy to be knocked out of when facing ordinary Eighth-Order and Nineth-Order adventurers. Therefore, it was a very lucky thing for a player like Chen Kai, who was only a fifth-order player, to be able to support so long under the attacks of many abyssal diggers. But Chen Kai didn't just want to hold on for a longer time, what he wanted to do was to escape from under these terrible mouths, and he was only less than three hundred meters away from the periphery of the arched terrain. This distance only takes about ten seconds in normal times, and it will not take more than half a minute at most to run, but Chen Kai has insisted on it for nearly fifteen seconds, and the distance he really travels is only less than fifty meters.

On the fifty-meter road behind him, more than a dozen black figures of different sizes appeared on the ground, and the rumbling sound of excavation continued to be heard from below the black, which were the sounds made by the abyss diggers chasing behind Chen Kai when they broke through the formation. These sounds sounded to Chen Kai as if they were bursts of life-urging talismans, spurring him to keep speeding forward, but the diggers rushing out of the ground in front of him were even more terrifying. Their diameter had already broken through two meters, and their length was more than six meters, and their huge bodies were like a long dragon biting towards Chen Kai's tiny body. F
