Chapter 370: Infiltration (4)
Chapter 370
“***! Scared the hell out of me! Zhao Tiezhu gently wiped the mud on his forehead and slowly got up from the wet mud, behind him one after another players struggled to get up from the mud, cleaning the mud and sand in his mouth while trying to wipe the muddy water on his body.
"It's a good thing that demon isn't the leader, otherwise we'd be in trouble!" Chen Kai looked at the demon patrol team that had disappeared in the distance and said with a little trepidation, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that they would either be in a mess with the demons now, or they would have been chased around.
"Let's go! Let's hope this group of demons is just passing by, if they're just patrolling the forest, then we might be able to encounter them again. Next time, you may not run into a quagmire! Van Clery wiped the mud off his body and patted the mud under his feet and said, although he didn't like what he said, it also represented a fact, after all, Fei Yun and they didn't meet this patrol last night. God knows if they're new patrols here, and if they do, the team behind them might run into them.
"Let's go! We've been delayed for almost half an hour, and we don't know what will happen in the future! I hate demons! Savaskilo scratched his bare head and said, he had much more perseverance than Chen Kai and them, and in order not to let his hair affect the effect of the disguise, he directly shaved it with a knife.
Under the urging of Van Clery, Chen Kai and his party hurriedly cleaned up the muddy water on their bodies and hurriedly set out on the road, of course, the so-called hastily did not fill in the quagmire, but used wood to muddy the entire quagmire, so that people could not see from the outside that there had been people in the quagmire.
Due to being delayed by the patrolling power demons, Chen Kai and the others arrived at the edge of the bushes later than originally planned. When Chen Kai and the others arrived at the edge and prepared to disguise, the second group of teams had already begun to prepare to set off, so the direct distance between the two could not be said to be very far, from a straight line it was only a few kilometers. If it weren't for the dense vegetation in the swamp blocking it, and because it was dark night, otherwise, it was estimated that Su Xinghe, who was standing on the other side of the swamp river, would be able to see Chen Kai and them directly.
If Fei Yun and his group of more than a dozen people stripped off their shirts and smeared black mud was just a scene, then Chen Kai and nearly fifty of them stripped naked and smeared mud, it was a bit spectacular. Of course, this kind of spectacular scene will make people numb a few times in a row, but for Chen Kai and them, being exposed to the cold wind with a little low temperature for the first time is still a little unbearable. The dry, cold wind without a trace of moisture blows on the body, causing particles to immediately form particles on the surface of the skin, and at the same time, the body also shivers a little.
"Hiss! It's really cold today! This was the first feeling that everyone had after smearing the black mud, and then immediately began to lurk into the black wilderness without saying a word. There are not many thieves in the whole team, so everyone should be as careful as possible when moving, and everyone should be scattered among each other, so that the sound of their footsteps when they land can be lowered. Of course, the whole team is not just scattered and scattered, but organized, with all the thieves and eyesighted archers at the front and flanks of the group, who are always on the lookout for the situation in the distance to inform the people in the group. At the same time, the warriors and meat shields in the team are located in the middle and at the place of the tail, which is always guaranteed to take a fighting way to get rid of danger in a dangerous situation.
The group moved at high speed along the route that Fei Yun and the others had discovered, and at the same time, they chose to go fast or lurk in the distance to wait for the demon to appear on the route marked as patrolling demons. In fact, since Chen Kai's current location was the outermost part of the Demon Gate, the number of demon patrols was not very large, especially the patrols on the ground were even few. Except for the group they met in the bushes, they had only encountered a wave of mad patrols until they reached the camp under the rocks, but the patrols of the little demons in the sky had encountered several groups that were much more unlucky than Fei Yun.
When more than a dozen little devils roared through the sky, Chen Kai and the others were lying on the ground with stones, and they didn't dare to get up from the ground until those little devils flew away. It is precisely because of this that the distance between them and Su Xinghe behind them has been pulled in, because Su Xinghe and they are even luckier than Chen Kai and them, and they are almost unimpeded all the way, except for a pause when they encounter the little devil, they are all hurrying at high speed. As a result, when Chen Kai and the others stepped into the cave under the rocks, Su Xinghe and the others also appeared not far from the rock camp, and quickly crawled over from the ground.
"Damn! Old Su, why are you so fast? Chen Kai had just settled all the personnel, ready to take some time to reinforce the camp under the rocks, and at the same time expand the space of the camp, but when he allocated manpower, Su Xinghe actually climbed in directly, and behind him was a large group of players.
"We ran relatively fast, and with almost no danger on the road, it was easy to catch up! How do you need room for expansion? Su Xinghe watched as Chen Kai and Zhao Tiezhu were propping up the top of the cave with two thick logs, and then several other people were waving their pickaxes on the ground to dig the soil underground, obviously Chen Kai planned to expand the underground space.
"Anyway, there is nothing to do, the thieves have been sent out to explore the way, the news from the fourth child is not very optimistic, the closer you get to the core, the more demons there are, they are now pressed in one place and can't move, surrounded by patrolling demons!" Chen Kai threw out a mine pickaxe from his backpack and threw it to Su Xinghe, and at the same time he also took out a mine pickaxe and dug up the dirt on the ground, and outside the rock, several archers lay in the shadow corner of the rock to observe the surrounding environment, and once a demon approached, he called the sound of the construction of the province inside, and attracted the demon.
"A lot?" Su Xinghe swung the pickaxe vigorously, and the soft soil was dug up by him at once, and all the soil layers in this black wilderness were gradually polluted by the power of the demon, even the soil at the bottom began to slowly turn black and gradually develop in the direction of the rocky sand, except for the swamp silt at the bottom, it was all black dry soil.
"It should be said that it is a lot, in just fifteen minutes, they encountered three waves of patrols, and two waves were training soldiers on the ground!" Chen Kai stretched out his hand and picked up the dirt on the ground, this kind of rancid dirt was the main constituent substance of the entire Demon Gate Wilderness, and he could see that the shimmering crystals inserted on the side of Guò were exuding a faint black aura. Of course, this requires Chen Kai to activate the eye of the stars to check, and ordinary naked eyes can't see this breath.
"Three waves in fifteen minutes?" Su Xinghe was taken aback by this number, don't look at this number, it is not very eye-catching, but if you are really in it, you will find what a depressing chance it is. Because that means that a wave of patrols will appear every five minutes, five minutes in such a wilderness does not completely make the player completely out of the demon's sight, especially since the time and appearance time of these demon patrols are not fixed, and one wave may just leave the next wave and appear in the distance. Of course, this was not the reason why Su Xinghe was frightened, the biggest reason was that at this moment, Fei Yun and they were still nearly forty kilometers away from the Demon Gate. There are such dense patrols at such a distance. If you enter the true core range of the Demon Gate territory, you don't know how terrifying the strength of the demon patrol is.
"Yes! But the most frustrating thing is that now the fourth child is trapped, because they encountered two teams of patrols led by wise demons, and they found a trace! As for the result, you know, they have been in place for nearly thirty minutes, and those demons are still searching there, if the demons don't leave before dawn, they will be in danger! Chen Kai sighed and said, although when they found out that something was wrong, Fei Yun and they had already used the skills of thieves to try to sneak into the shadows and escape. But it wasn't as quick as the demon to react. As a result, a dozen thieves could only hide in the shadows beneath a rock, and around them forty or fifty power demons and swift knife demons searched there.
At this moment, Fei Yun and the others were just as Chen Kai said, the situation was very bad, those demons didn't seem to intend to let them go, they kept searching around, and searched along a fan-shaped area towards the rocks where they were hiding. As for Fei Yun, while they were thinking of a way, they glared angrily at Mo Yan, the culprit who caused this qiē, who let him die so well, but he coughed when the demon was about to leave. The cough was very mild, but it was clear in the empty and silent night, and the sound was caught by a demon who was just about to leave.
As for the later results, it was obvious that even if Fei Yun and the others used the shadow step to escape from that area in time, they were also bitten by the demons. Although these demons don't know what they have infiltrated their territory, they are definitely a non-demon species, so the pair of demon patrols and the Swift Blade Demon who came later are constantly searching the wilderness for the source of the sound.
"What now?" Although he knew that Mo Yan was the culprit of this incident, he couldn't blame him, because the incident had already happened, no matter how much he blamed, it would be useless, and the most important thing now was to get out of the dangerous environment as much as possible, otherwise not only would they hang here, but also put Chen Kai and them in danger. Once it is discovered that humans have infiltrated here, the demon will definitely dispatch a large number of people to search various areas desperately, not to mention hiding underground or even hiding in the water.
"What else can I do? Let's dig a hole and hide! Besides, isn't this just the right place to hide? Fayyun pointed to the shadow of the rock they were leaning on, a rock larger than the first camp they had founded, but equally difficult to dig because it had no gaps in the ground. Such a rock would not necessarily be a good place to set up a hiding camp from anywhere, but no one would object to it in an emergency, and the only difficulty was how to dig without making a sound.
"Dig by hand!" This was the best way Mo Yan could think of, and at the same time, he was also the first to dig the dirt without sparing his own hands. Of course, it doesn't mean that if you dig with your hands, you will completely expose your hands and dig directly into the dirt, but if your fingers dig out, the smell of blood is more likely to attract demons than the sound of digging. So when digging, Mo Yan still wore a pair of leather gloves to reduce the friction of his fingers and make it not so easy to be dug up.
In the direction of searching with his back to the demon, Mo Yan grabbed the ground with both hands, quickly digging the dirt, and pieces of black soil were dug out by him and stuffed into the backpack, the amount of soil in the backpack increased rapidly, and at the same time, the distance between the demons was getting closer and closer. Although the sound of digging with both hands was small, the speed of the work was really not fast enough, so even if Mo Yan used up his strength to eat, he only dug out a hole that could accommodate one person.
"That's it! So be it! We're flashing! The dark dagger checked the cave that Mo Yan had dug out, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he directly pulled up Mo Yan on the ground, whose hands trembled, and then activated the shadow of the thief, and slowly disappeared into the night. The old thief Kashgar looked at the cave dug by Mo Yan, and then watched as the dagger flashed into the shadows at a faster speed, and when he flashed, he used sign language to notify the others to follow.
Although Fei Yun's mind was still vague, and the few thieves who helped Mo Yan dig the hole were even more confused, it didn't mean that they would stand stupidly at the rock and wait for death. Seeing Kashgar slowly disappearing into the shadows, Fei Yun and the others quickly followed the footsteps, activated the thief's hidden skills, and slowly touched towards a dry pond in the distance with the help of the dark night. By the time Fei Yun touched the parched pond and then lurked on the shore of the pond, they finally understood why the dagger and Kashgar had abandoned the rock, because it was the bait that the demon had thrown.
Compared to the size of the demon's body, the cave they dug out was almost small enough for one person to penetrate, so the demon naturally couldn't get into such a small opening. Coupled with the huge rock pressed on it, everyone understood that the only way for the demon to find something was to get the rock out of the way, and this was what the dagger wanted most. Compared to the hard soil under the rock, the soil on the shore of the pond was naturally much softer, and by the time the demon had completely cleaned the rock and found that the cave under the rock was just a cover, Fei Yun and the others had already dug the cave and shrunk into the ground.
Just as Fei Yun and the others thought, after discovering the rock, several demons surrounded them, and then naturally saw Mo Yan's dirt that was dragged out and scattered on the ground, and at the same time, they also found the cave that was dug. The first time all the demons saw the cave, they thought it was a hiding place for the infiltrators, because there were no more rabbits and rats that could burrow in the entire demon wilderness, and only the infiltrators would dig such an obvious hole under the rocks.
As a result, a group of sub-demons gathered around the thousand-ton rock, constantly destroying the stone with their weapons or digging the dirt on the ground with their claws, but no matter how much they dug up, they found no trace of the infiltrator. As for the real infiltrator, Fei Yun, they dug a hole in the shore of the pond early, and then dug a space in the ground that could accommodate a tent with the help of the demon's digging sound. The top of the space is supported by wooden planks, and the bottom is supported by wood to prevent the top of the earthen structure from collapsing and exposing the underground space when the demon walks over. After doing this, Fei Yun and the others reported their safety to Chen Kai and them, and at the same time sent a new map.
After receiving the message sent back by Fei Yun, Chen Kai and the others breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, but immediately threw themselves into more nervous worries. Su Wan and the fourth group of people who set off were blocked less than two kilometers away from the rock camp, and they were blocked there one after the other. A patrol led by a high-level wisdom demon turned a corner when it was there in Tongguò, and then both groups of people and horses were blocked, although they were not discovered on the spot, but the demon seemed to be fighting with Su Wan and them, who was more calm, and stopped there directly. Seeing that the sky was slowly about to light up, and when it was bright in an hour or two, then Su Wan and the others were finished.
"What to do? Captain Van Clery, what do you say? "At this moment, Chen Kai really can't think of any way to solve the current problem, two batches of players are blocked on the road, that is a team of nearly a hundred people, if it is swallowed by the demon at once, don't say that Chen Kai doesn't want to, then Fan Kerry doesn't want to. Although Fan Clery felt that the player's strength was not very high, no matter how it was, when there was a shortage of manpower, nearly 100 fifth-order manpower was also a very big help, so when Chen Kai was in a hurry, Fan Clery was also rubbing his bare head and thinking of a way.
But the solution can't be figured out by patting the brain, and it's too difficult to mobilize the demon patrol force that has obviously found some clues without being discovered by the demons. If the thieves were to lure the demons, they would definitely be able to save Su Wan and them, but it would also expose the fact that they had infiltrated the Demon Gate, and compared to Su Wan, who had not yet been fully exposed, they would let the thieves lure this target more conspicuously, just like delivering food to the other party.
"Do you want to use a thunder cannon tube?" Su Xinghe scratched his ears and thought for a while, and found that now only by creating something to attract demons could he lure the demons away from the place where they were, and give Su Wan and them time to escape. As for making something that attracts demons, of course, it can't be a player or anyone else, only something with great power, and the Thunder Cannon Barrel is the best option.
"This method is okay, but we need to bury things farther away, otherwise it will still expose our location, and the power of the cannon barrel must be controlled, if it is too small, it will be discovered by the devil!" Chen Kai thought about it and found that Su Xinghe's method seemed to be a bit useful, but it could also be discovered by the demon.
Under Chen Kai's eyes full of worry and expectation, Lu Xiaofeng, the fastest thief in the team, ran nearly three kilometers away from the camp with a fully loaded thunder cannon barrel. Of course, when detonating the thunder cannon barrel, Lu Xiaofeng also did a lot of work, in order to ensure that the sound was loud and loud enough, he not only pointed the cannon barrel at the direction where the demon patrol was, but also used a shovel to dig out a loose sound wave diffusion surface on the ground. Of course, this diffusion surface can be quickly broken under the power of the thunder cannon tube, ensuring that it will not leave any traces, and after making a qiē, Lu Xiaofeng carefully made a detonation device. This kind of detonation device made of string and candle can detonate the thunder cannon barrel in about a minute, of course, the sensitivity is a bit problematic, but Lu Xiaofeng is here to lure people, not to be a daredevil. So the sensitivity problem was compared to his small life, he directly chose the latter, and then after dealing with it, he flashed his legs directly.
