Chapter XXIII: The Crisis in the Air
Then, after flying in the canyon for dozens of minutes, Ye Feng finally found the exit in the winding canyon, and the moment he found the exit, the scene in front of him also shocked him, and even Isy, who was supposed to concentrate on piloting the airship, was stunned by everything that appeared in front of him.
I saw that at the exit of the canyon, there was a dense and vibrant jungle oasis, this oasis was surrounded by the canyon peaks dozens of meters high around it, so only by flying near it, can you find that there is such an oasis in the depths of the canyon.
At a glance, this oasis is about the size of a Cairo city, and in the oasis, there are many waterfalls dozens of meters high, and abundant water nourishes this lush oasis.
And I saw that in the center of the oasis, a huge pyramid was also erected majestically, which was the Amshei oasis and the pyramid of the scorpion king!
From the air, it would take more than half a day to cross the jungle below to reach the pyramids, and an hour if you flew directly through the air.
However, just as Nightfront ordered Issy to fly from the sky to the pyramid in the middle of the oasis, there was a sudden premonition of danger in his heart, which was exactly what his perception of 27 points was warning him.
Warn him that there will be great danger if he flies directly through the air!
And as the airship gets closer and closer to the exit of the canyon and is about to enter the oasis, this sense of crisis is also getting stronger and stronger.
Although Ye Feng didn't know where this crisis came from at this time, he knew that this could not be a so-called hallucination or something, thinking of this, he saw that his face was also pale and suddenly roared: "Stop moving forward immediately!" ”
Later, under his order, Issy also controlled the airship to slowly land towards the ground, and as he got closer and closer to the ground, the sense of crisis in his heart gradually weakened.
It seems that approaching the pyramid in the air is indeed a hidden mortal danger!
And after landing on the ground, Ye Feng also paid the rest of the balance to Isse, and then he also waved his hand directly to let the other party leave here, after all, the next battle here will kill people if you don't pay attention to it.
And when Issy got the final payment, he was naturally very happy to control the take-off boat to rise, but at this moment, just as he was about to control the airship to turn around and fly back to Cairo City, he saw a dazzling light suddenly emanating from the center of the oasis.
The light was so hot and dazzling that it could be seen so clearly even in broad daylight.
Subconsciously, Issy also immediately took out the binoculars and looked at the position where the light was shining, and the next moment, his eyes were also fixed there, and he couldn't move away.
At the top of that pyramid, a diamond the size of at least a football was set there!
At first, Issy thought it was an illusion and rubbed his eyes vigorously, but the next second, the diamond still appeared in the telescope's line of sight.
"Gollum!"
At this time, I saw that Issy also subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then his eyes were instantly filled with greed.
Then, I saw that he also suddenly turned around again, and then saw the airship also fly straight in the direction of the pyramid.
And this scene happened to be seen by the night blade on the ground, and then, also out of kindness, he immediately shouted at Issy: "Damn it! Don't fly through the air towards there! ”
"Dangerous!"
Because the airship was only a few dozen meters above the ground at this time, and the airship was still near the sky above the night front, his shouting was also vaguely transmitted to Issy's ears, but to the surprise of the night front, although Issy had successfully heard his warning, but then, he did not see that Isy had any intention of turning around and stopping.
It is worth mentioning that at this time, in Issy's heart, he thought that Ye Feng said this just to prevent him from obtaining that huge diamond as big as a football.
In fact, the idea in Issy's mind at this time is also very simple, Ye Feng spent a lot of money to come here on purpose, it can't be idle and have nothing to do to travel here, right?
Therefore, Issy subconsciously thought that the main purpose of Ye Feng's special coming here was for the diamond on the pyramid, after all, a huge diamond like that could be said to be worth at least dozens or even millions of pounds!
Therefore, when Nightblanc kindly warns Isse, he is blinded by endless greed, and he also misinterprets Nightblanc's kindness into a malicious lie to prevent him from obtaining the diamond.
Therefore, I saw that Issy also ignored the warning of the night blade's roar, and instead controlled the airship to fly straight in the direction of the pyramid.
However, not long after the airship flew over the oasis, the originally dazzling light on the top of the pyramid in the center of the oasis instantly became even hotter, and after a few seconds, a thick pillar of light suddenly shot out from the top of the pyramid.
"Boom" with a loud bang!
In the next second, I saw that the airship piloted by Isy was also instantly blasted into powder by this laser cannon-like pillar of light!
Seeing this scene, Ye Feng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat in his heart, no wonder his perception had been warning him not to approach from the air, it turned out that there was really a deadly danger hidden in the air!
There is no doubt that the blow just now, even if he is replaced by the current one, it is likely that there will be a huge risk of death!
Ye Feng immediately took out the rifle from the storage space and held it firmly in his hand, and after taking a deep breath, he also cautiously stepped into the dense jungle.
Because he has read the plot, he also knows very well that this jungle is full of a large number of monsters similar to undead creatures, but these undead monsters are like monkeys.
In the plot, hundreds of warriors led by the descendants of the monk clan were slaughtered by these undead monkeys after entering the jungle.
Because these undead monkeys are not only agile, but even more exaggerated is that they can actually use weapons, such as blow arrows, wooden guns and other weapons.
After entering the jungle, I saw that in addition to a large number of trees more than ten meters high, it was also covered with grass more than one meter high, and for the undead monkeys who were only less than one meter, the grass all over the jungle was simply their elusive paradise.
The only pity is that his intelligence and spiritual attributes have not reached 50 points, otherwise, he can automatically have the ability to scan and detect mental power, which can be called the nemesis of these undead monkeys who are good at hiding and raiding with the help of grass.
It is precisely because of this that Night Edge did not let the Terminator leave him to fight alone, but let it turn into metal armor to protect him at all times.
However, to his surprise, it had been several hours since he entered the jungle, but he had never been attacked by the undead monkeys, and when he looked at the dazzling sunlight in the sky, he also realized something in his heart.
It seems that these undead monkeys should all be out at night, and it is worth mentioning that in the plot of the movie, the monks enter the oasis from the day and do not seem to encounter the attack of the monkeys until night.
But despite this, Ye Feng did not have careless emotions because of this, and still maintained a careful attitude to walk in this oasis jungle.
Because the pyramid was much taller than all the trees in the jungle, he could always see the outline of the pyramid clearly through the gaps between the trees, so that he could determine the direction of travel so that he would not get lost.
And with the passage of time a little bit, I saw that the originally clear day was gradually dimmed.
When the bright moonlight shone on Ye Feng through the gap between the trees, he also suddenly had a premonition of danger in his heart, and after continuing to walk for a while, for some reason, he always had the illusion of being stared at by many pairs of eyes.
However, when he looked around, he didn't find anything unusual.
If it were a normal person, it would probably be thought that it was just an illusion or an illusion of his own, but Ye Feng's heart was suddenly cold, because he knew that this was definitely not a so-called illusion or hallucination, but that he had now been targeted by those undead monkeys.
It's just that because these undead monkeys don't have eye holes in their eye sockets, they don't show cold eyes like wolves and other creatures in the dark night, but quietly blend with the nearby night.
Therefore, Nightblanc wants to find those lurking undead monkeys in the dim jungle, and the difficulty of nature is self-evident.
It's just that it seems that the number of undead monkeys targeting him is not too large at the moment, and they should only belong to the category of scouts, so they didn't attack immediately.
Because it is also obvious from the plot that although these undead monkeys kill and kill, they are also timid, for example, in the plot, an undead monkey was scared away by Jonathan's screams of fear.
Therefore, these undead monkeys will always attack completely after gathering a certain number of companions.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng also hurriedly sped up, and at the same time, in addition to the rifle, a thick golden book appeared out of thin air in his hand.
This is the true sutra of the sun!
Because the light skills in the Sun Sutra are the best way to deal with undead creatures, although at present he can only cast the basic light magic skills recorded in the Sun Sutra, but there is just one ability in it, which is very suitable for the use of the guns in his hand.
I don't know if it's an illusion, when he took out the Sun Sutra, he also clearly felt that the illusion of being stared at had decreased a lot, and it seemed that the light power on the Sun Sutra had deterred the undead monkeys nearby.
However, this should only be temporary, and when the number of those undead monkeys rises to a certain level, even if they rely on the light power on the Sun Sutra, they will not be able to stop them.
Then, after walking for a long time, when I walked past a bush, I saw a small open field suddenly appear in front of me, but to my shock, on the trees on both sides of this open field, there were rows of wooden cages.
In this wooden prison, a large number of human skeletons are kept.
In addition, I saw that under the wooden prison, there were also different styles of flags, including Roman legions and French.
Presumably, these human skeletons should be the Roman legions and French teams who used to come here to find the legendary Oasis of Amshei, but unfortunately, although they finally succeeded in finding the legendary oasis, they did not have the life to get out of here alive.
And at this moment, Ye Feng also suddenly felt a chill of crisis in his heart, and at the same time, he saw that there was a sudden sound in the surrounding grass.
At the same time, I saw that the grass that had been calm suddenly trembled in large areas, which was a sign that a large number of dwarf undead monkeys were scurrying under the grass.
And I saw that the grass around me showed such signs in all directions, and a rough calculation showed signs of at least hundreds of undead monkeys, and there may even be more!
There is no doubt that if you want to run past the swift and familiar undead monkeys in such a complex and difficult jungle, it will not take long to catch up with Ye Feng's current speed, so the best way at the moment is undoubtedly to repel this wave of undead monkeys first, temporarily defeat them, and wait until the next time they call more companions, he can also take the opportunity to retreat.
After all, compared with unprepared encounters, there is no doubt that active defensive warfare is more advantageous.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng also immediately opened the Sun Sutra and recited an unknown incantation, and soon, under his chanting, along with the reduction of the MP value in his body, he saw a holy white light suddenly shine on the rifle in his hand.
When the white light gradually dissipated, I saw that the rifle in his hand at this time was also emitting a faint white light compared to the original.
This is the Blade of Light skill recorded in the Sun Sutra, which can temporarily turn the weapon's attack effect into sacred light elemental damage, which can cause a huge additional damage bonus to undead creatures.
Then he saw that Ye Feng also withdrew the Sun Sutra, picked up the rifle strengthened by the holy light and aimed around, waiting for the moment when those monsters completely appeared in his sight.
And he didn't wait long, just a few seconds later, only to see a series of black shadows suddenly roaring out of the grass.
If you look closely, these short black shadows really look very similar to monkeys, but they are almost no flesh and blood, some only have skin and bones like shrunken dried corpses, and there are no eyes in the eye sockets, only pitch black.
And in their hands, they are holding all kinds of primitive and backward weapons, such as some monsters holding wooden guns more than one meter long, while others are holding small wooden pipes with a length of one hand, put them to their mouths and jump over, presumably this should be blowing arrows.
And the largest number are the monsters with bone daggers more than ten centimeters long!
