Chapter 147: The Cruel Crypt
Chapter 147: The Cruel Ground-Cave-
Because the strength of the guides is really weak compared to the three of us, so we have always sandwiched the guides in the middle of the team. Black Widow and I are in charge of the front, and the spear god is in charge of the back. Now we are walking in the same way through the big crack of Guò, who knew that when the guide team came to the middle of the crack, there was a sudden accident.
With a terrible scream, we saw a black shadow flash from the center of the procession, followed by a scream of a man who broke away from Black Flame's back and fell into the depths of the rift.
"Red beans!" One of the guides threw himself to the edge of Black Flame's back and yelled downward, but he couldn't fly and couldn't chase him. However, just as he was about to call for our help, he found the gun god half-kneeling on the ground and raising his gun to aim. A loud bang echoed through the enclosed space, and with this loud bang, a black shadow fell on Black Yan's back with a thud, and then slipped out from the other side and fell into the deep ravine.
"Run." I shouted at the other *** who were still stunned in the middle of the position, and at the same time waved my hand to summon a large swarm of candle bees to block the side of the crowd. Almost at the same time as the candle bees were in place, a loud bang was heard, and a candle bee exploded in the air, and the sudden fire instantly illuminated the dark underground world, and also let everyone see the true face of the attacker. It was a monster with a pig's face, and its body looked a bit like a bat and a bit like a gargoyle. Beneath the gray-colored skin was a body that was more skinny than a skull, with a large head with a pair of large orange-yellow-colored eyeballs. A long, protruding mouth full of dagger-like fangs, and a constant drop of saliva - indicate that these guys are desperately hungry.
"Damn, it's a plague beast."
Plaguebeasts are not endemic to the red-colored planet, they also exist on Earth. They live only in deep burrows, and have a habit of being a bit like bats, feeding on any meat they can find, and even killing each other when they are extremely hungry. These guys have a bat-like echolocation system, and the large pair of eyeballs also provide them with good low-light vision, and they are well adapted to little light or complete darkness. However, although the habits of the plague beasts are like those of bats, the bloodlines of these creatures are not at all related to bats, and their real race is demons. Plaguemon is a branch of the Little Devil and has intelligence beyond ordinary creatures, acts cunningly, and can basically be regarded as a highly intelligent creature except that it does not use tools. Of course, they are not obnoxious entirely because of their carnivorous genus - sexuality, but because of their plague. The reason why Plaguebeast is called Plaguebeast is because these guys carry the most deadly plague virus in the whole game, and as long as they are injured by their minions, they will continue to lose their body until they hang up completely. This plague is fundamentally incurable, as long as you are hit, whether you ask the priest to disperse it or take an antidote, it can only be temporarily suppressed, it cannot be eradicated, and unless you die and resurrect again, it is useless to do anything. Of course, if you don't have the trouble of carrying a bundle of antidote with you every half an hour, it can also guarantee that you will never die, but generally no one will do that.
Although the identity of the monster has been confirmed, the current situation has made us more passive. Before, when we didn't know it was the plague beast, everyone dared to resist, but now that we found out that it was this thing, they all began to dodge desperately, and they didn't dare to contact these things at all, and the only ones who could really fight were the top three of our three combat power lists. The armor of me and the Black Widow is full-coverage, and although the plague of the plague beast is powerful, it is useless if there is no wound, and our defense is too high, and it is not something that the plague beast can do if you want to penetrate the armor and hurt us. As for the Spear God, his armor is inferior to ours, but this guy is a ranged attacker, and he doesn't need to touch the Plague Beast to fight, so he is more fearless than us in comparison.
"It's all messed up, you all give me to the cave." I pointed to the mouth of the cave across from me and shouted.
The crowd that had been a little chaotic immediately moved instinctively when they heard my command, and the swarm of candle bees I summoned densely blocked in front of them to make shields for them, and almost no one was injured in the next process, and the rest of the guide team members all fled safely into the cave.
"Alright, Black Widow, you and the Spear God retreat into the cave too." After seeing that the guides had all gone in, I said again.
"Be careful yourself." With that, the Black Widow turned and went into the cave, and the spear god quickly jumped in with her. The hole on the cliff wall is only one meter wide and less than two meters high, and with the size of the plague beast, you can enter at most one at a time.
"You go first, I'll go find the one who fell, and I'll catch up with you in a moment." I said as I summoned Ling and asked her to follow the team in my place. Because of the relationship of loyalty, Ling can command and summon the demon pet instead of me, so as long as she is there, except that I can't participate in the war, it is exactly the same as having me. In addition, Ling is also my magic pet after all, because of the induction between us, I can know their location at any time, so I don't have to worry about not finding them.
I was about to turn around and leave when one of the guides suddenly called out to me, "Her name is Hongdou, you can call her name when you look for her." ”
I nodded. "I've heard you call me once before, don't worry, the plague beast won't hurt me at all, and I'll be able to get her back soon." After I finished speaking, I didn't wait for the other party to answer, and jumped off the cliff, spread my wings and glided down, chasing all the way in the direction where the previous sound disappeared.
As I left, the candle bee at the entrance of the cave flew away with me, and Black Flame was taken back by me. The plague beasts outside found that we were divided into two groups and divided into two parts, several of the larger ones knew that they couldn't enter such a narrow hole, so they simply chased me and flew out, while the rest of the plague beasts desperately attacked the hole like crazy, but unfortunately the spear god squatted a few meters away from the hole and waited for them to line up to die. In such a narrow place, the plague beast didn't even have a place to hide, as long as the spear god shot, it would definitely hit, and the plague beast had no possibility of rushing into it at all.
On the other side, I've been descending for a long time, but I'm still far from the bottom of the cave. After descending for some distance, I suddenly rushed towards the cliff and landed on a platform that was slightly protruding from the cliff face. This is the exit of a natural passage, and it is from here that the woman named Azuki was caught in. It's been a few minutes since she was captured, but at the same time she was captured, I had already released a small group of ghost bugs to track down, and now one of the ghost bugs was waiting at the entrance of this hole, and with their guide signs, I didn't have to worry about chasing them away.
Going all the way down this natural tunnel, I feel as if I have entered a black-hearted slaughterhouse, and the whole passage is full of various white animal bones, many of which obviously have the characteristics of human bones, but because I don't see the skull, I can't be sure if it's a human bone for the time being.
After running through this terrifying passage for a while, the front suddenly became wider, and the huge cavern was full of inverted stalactites-stones, and beneath the feet was a large area of shallow water. Instead of being completely dark outside, the walls and ceiling of the cave were covered with a green-colored fluorescent plant that illuminated the whole thing in a miserable green. In this kind of place, not to mention a monster, suddenly seeing a person can scare people to death.
Although the puddle under your feet is not deep, walking in it will produce a lot of movement, and the ground under the water does not know whether it is the result of the water or some other reason, it always feels very slippery, if it were not for the self-retracting cleats at the bottom of the boots of the Shenlong suit, I am afraid it will be very difficult for me and Benren to stand up.
As I cautiously moved forward, I suddenly heard a swift, slight sound behind me, and it was evident that something had run over the roof of the cave.
"Humph!" The monsters were clearly intimidating me, just as the springboks in the steppe told the lion that I was too healthy to be caught, and this monster was intimidating me with this swift movement, making me feel like it was no match at all. However, I am not one of those cowardly weaklings, and I know the Plague Beast well, so I am not afraid of it.
After the first sound, the plague beasts began to scurry around the roof of the cave, but I ignored them and walked on my own. Seeing that I was unmoved, the plague beast was a little impatient. A daring plague beast quickly crawled up the roof of the cave in front of me, and then began to climb down a rather large stalactite-stone, intending to strike as I passed below.
Although I have never reacted to the behavior of the plague beast, in fact, I know the location of the nearby plague beast very well, after all, I also have dark vision, this kind of low-light environment does not have any visual impairment for me at all, with the size of the plague beast I can't see the ghost!
As I carefully moved underneath the largest stalactite, the plague monster above my head suddenly kicked the roof of the cave and lunged at me, and I took a quick slid step and flipped my wrist. There was only a thud, followed by a thud, and the plague monster's corpse fell heavily into the water and never moved again. There was a commotion on the roof of the nearby cave, and the smell of blood that quickly spread Yan zhòng stimulated these hungry guys. Although the plague monsters have intelligence, their intelligence cannot be compared with that of humans after all, and they are very strictly governed by instinct. They were able to play tricks when nothing had happened before, but as soon as the smell of blood spread, all the plague monsters went completely insane. They no longer hid their bodies, and all of them rushed out of their hiding places and rushed towards the corpses of their companions at my feet. This is the plague monsters, they act collectively, but they do not have the concept of companions, for them companions are something that can help them obtain meat, and once their companion dies, it is not companion but meat.
I didn't panic at all when I saw the swarming plague beasts, I reached out and pulled out the ring of discipline from behind my back and shook it gently, and the two half-moons automatically detached from the ring of discipline, and then spun and flew out to both sides, instantly cutting several plague beasts that stood in the way into slices of meat, and the nearby plague beasts immediately stopped rushing towards me and began to fight for the corpse of the companion who had just been killed.
One of the plague beasts was probably far away from the two newly dead plague beasts, so instead of running towards the corpses of the two plague beasts, they continued to rush in front of me. A few feet away, the guy suddenly jumped up and pounced on me, and I stretched out my left hand and firmly pressed the plague beast's head, and then pressed down violently, pressing it to the ground, followed by a sword at the back of its neck with my right hand for eternity, and the plague beast instantly stopped moving.
After I killed this plague beast, the other plague monsters had eaten all the freshly dismembered plague beasts, and the only flesh left was the two corpses at my feet. The plague beasts, which had not yet eaten their fill, quickly dispersed, some climbed to the top of the cave, some rushed down the ground, and I remained still.
One of the fastest plague beasts climbed from the top of the cave to top of me and swooped down, but a half-moon roared from afar, slicing the creature in half in half before disappearing again into the darkness in the distance. I don't know if the plague beasts around me were not so hungry after eating something or if they had found something, but instead of striking at the corpse of their companion again, they pounced on me.
"Look for death." Facing the first plague beast to pounce, I easily slid out of its front, and at the same time, with a gentle stroke of eternity from the bottom to the top in my hand, the plague beast suddenly had a blood line on the midline of its body, and then plunged headlong into the puddle behind me and never said again.
After killing the first plague beast, I quickly turned sideways, and the eternal homeopathy that I had just provoked slashed down, and the head of the second plague beast that rushed away immediately separated from the body, and then I raised my leg and kicked the headless corpse sideways, knocking over several plague beasts that rushed up, and then suddenly turned around and split a plague beast that had just pounced from the top of the cave in half with a sword.
If someone were watching from the vicinity at this time, they would have noticed that the surrounding herds of plague beasts were gathering around me, and I was surrounded by plague beasts and turned around in a small range with seemingly slow movements, but with such a simple dodge and attack, the surrounding plague beasts were rapidly turning into corpses at a terrifying speed.
"Whew, it's finally gone!" I shook the blood off my sword with a flick of eternity, and jumped off the pile of corpses beneath my feet. A full hundred and seventy-three plague beasts formed a hill at my feet, and the average person would have died no longer knowing how many times. And my loss is just a little stamina, yes, I didn't waste blood, not because my defense is so high that I won't be hurt at all, after all, the system also has a minimum standard of mandatory blood deduction, unless you can use a shield or weapon to block the opponent's attack, otherwise no matter how high your defense is, this forced blood deduction is unavoidable. The reason why I didn't bother at all was because none of the plaguebeasts had ever touched my body from the beginning to the end, and the only parts that the plaguebeasts had touched me from now to now were my fists, elbows, knees, soles, and heels. Of course, none of these places were touched-by the monsters, but by the places I used to attack them.
After killing these monsters, I began to follow the signals from the ghost bugs that I had sent out to track. The plague beast that caught the red bean wasn't among the monsters on the scene, in fact it hung up before I got here. The other plague beasts attacked the guy, of course, with the aim of snatching its prey, which was our guide, but in the end, a dozen plague beasts were hung up because of this robbery, and in the end, the red beans were snatched by another monster.
Actually, it wasn't the plague beast that snatched the red beans in the end, but another underground creature, but I don't know what it was. The thing seen from the ghost's view felt a lot like a large lobster, but it seemed like the guy had more legs than a lobster, and the head was clearly not an aquatic animal.
Following the trail left by the ghost bug, I made my way quickly, and soon caught up with the strange creature in a passage. The female player named Red Bean was very smart, and she didn't even bark when she saw me approaching, but just pretended to be very calm and let the monster run forward with her pincers.
Because of her appearance, my rescue plan was much easier. Although the lobster-like monster was very powerful, its perception was obviously much worse than that of the plague beast, and it didn't even notice me when I ran behind it.
Now the red bean is caught by that monster with a big pincer, and a rash attack is likely to lead that guy to cut the red bean in half, so you must get the big pincer before saving people. After thinking about it, I split the eternity in half, one half of which became a round metal rod and the other half into the shape of a machete. After the completion of the eternal change, I rushed forward with a stick in one hand and a knife in the other, and the monster found that something had come to him, and he was about to take action immediately, but I took a step forward before the monster reacted to the middle of the monster's big pincers, and now the monster must first cut off the eternal pincers if it wants to tighten the pliers, but is eternity so simple to cut off?
Just as I had gotten the stick away, the monster really tightened its pincers, but eternity jammed its pincers, and it tried but it didn't work, and just as it was about to try a second time, the machete in my other hand had already arrived. With a click, the sharp eternal easily unloaded the monster's large pincers holding the red bean. The pincers that were separated from the body immediately tightened instinctively, and if it weren't for eternity, the red bean would definitely die. However, the delay monster had already reacted, and it raised the other remaining pliers to clamp me, and I was undaunted to wave my knife at me. However, just as my eternity and its pincers were about to collide, a wilting tentacle suddenly shot out of the passage ahead, grabbed the monster, and then pulled it back in an instant.
"Holy? What is it? ”
