Chapter 480: Caused

These people mentioned that they had been here for many years, and they revealed two clues.

They are not the natives of this place, but because they have been here for many years, they must have dealt with these giant spiders a lot, they know how to live in this place, and they must be familiar with this place.

It's no wonder they were so calm in the face of such a terrifying creature when they flicked the arrows from the giant spider's body.

The crowd leaped out of the ring of fire and watched as the group gathered away the scattered arrows and put them back into the arrow pouches hanging from their waists.

Under the moonlight, the blue lake was rippling, and these first-arriving adventurers quickly picked up the arrows on the beach and gathered in one place.

Song Qingxiao tore at the spider silk tied around his body, the silk spit out by these giant spiders was extremely heavy after being soaked in water, and after absorbing the water, the spider silk appeared more resilient, several strands were intertwined, like a silk web, the more it was torn, the longer it was torn, but it could not be torn off.

The situation of the other people was similar, and seeing their embarrassed appearance, the man with the bow smiled and said:

"The silk of these symbiote beasts is very terrifying, the ordinary fire can burn constantly, the water blisters do not melt, and after soaking in water, it is even more difficult to tear off."

His gaze fell on the burning firelight around him, and in the firelight, the spider silk covering the ground was burned and curled and deformed, emitting an unpleasant scorching stench:

"The fire you released is much more powerful than ordinary fire, probably because of the higher temperature, right?"

This group of people had been hiding in the abandoned building before, and since they were able to save everyone at the critical moment, they should have also seen the scene when the trialists fought with the giant spider before.

When he said this, his eyes fell on Four, and he even deliberately stayed in his hand holding the pipe for a moment.

No. 1 nodded, and before he could speak, Song Qing and caught the key words in his words:

"Symbiote?" She tore at the spider silk for a moment, "Do you mean those human-faced spiders?" ”

"Yes." The man's gaze shifted from No. 4 to her, and Song Qingxiao then asked:

"Why are they called symbiotes? Is there any reason? ”

When she asked, No. 1 and the others also stopped their movements and looked up at the man.

In the sound of 'crackling' flames, an eerie atmosphere enveloped everyone.

"Because in this place, we are also a species that co-exists with them." The man didn't seem to realize the strangeness, and his demeanor naturally explained Song Qingxiao's question.

She nodded, understanding the man's answer:

"We're new to the city, so we don't know much about this species we've never seen before, we just want to learn more about their customs, and if there's anything offensive, I hope you don't mind."

"Humph!" Song Qingxiao's apologetic tone at this time made No. 4 nostrils snort with dissatisfaction, he was scolded twice by Song Qingxiao, and he was very resentful in his heart.

The two of them had similar spiritual power attributes, and they were originally hostile to each other, but at this time, seeing that Song Qingxiao's attitude towards these people was completely different from her attitude towards herself, she was even more annoyed when she remembered her previous unceremonious attitude towards herself.

The man accepted Song Qingxiao's apology, and said with a smile:

"It's okay, this place is indeed dangerous, if you just came here and met that group of human-faced spiders, it is understandable that you want to know more about the situation when you are afraid."

When he spoke, when he mentioned those giant spiders, he didn't call them 'symbiotic beasts' anymore, but followed the name Song Qingxiao mentioned earlier, calling them 'human-faced spiders'.

As a person who has been in this scene for many years, and has fought against these terrifying 'symbiote beasts', it is not easy to survive until now, and this temper is also a little too good.

The man seemed to have guessed the doubts in everyone's hearts, and then continued:

"We've been here for too long, we haven't met many of our compatriots, and even fewer have survived." He paused, "It's not easy to survive in this ghost place, and only by helping each other can we have hope of surviving and spreading the seeds of humanity." ”

He said earnestly:

"I also hope that you can think about it, join our team, and if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask us."

What the man said was indeed reasonable, but it seemed that Song Qingxiao's previous suspicions were a little too much of a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain.

She watched as the others had finished collecting the arrows on the beach, and the arrows on the giant spider had been removed, and some of the tips of the broken arrows had been carefully broken off and placed in their quiver sacs.

The man was already taking the roll call, as if he was ready to leave.

Song Qingxiao suddenly asked again:

"There are also some arrows in the lake, don't you pick them up?"

Her words made the man who turned around to count raise his hand for a moment, and turned around, his eyes flashed dark under the jumping flames, and his brows seemed to be furrowed quickly, as if he was already a little impatient with Song Qingxiao's continuous questions.

No. 1 and No. 2 glanced at Song Qingxiao unexpectedly, from the time she entered the trial space to the present, she didn't talk much, and she didn't look like such a noisy character.

At this time, questions frequently appeared, as if he didn't know that he was about to provoke this group of people who had saved the trialists.

"Don't pick it up."

When the man turned his head, he had already collected his inner emotions:

"There's too much time to lose, and it's not wise to stay in the same place for a long time." After speaking, he pointed to the fire burning on the beach:

"These special flames are much hotter than ordinary flames, and they will quickly attract a large number of human-faced spiders."

Especially since the terrifying giant spider swarm has just left, if you sense something is wrong and turn back again, it is not good news for everyone.

His statement was a validation of Song Qingxiao's previous speculation that these face spiders were attracted by Ability Four, and it added to the credibility of his words.

No. 1 looked grim, as if he had dispelled the doubts in his heart, and nodded heavily.

"Come with us."

As soon as the man finished speaking, he took the lead in returning to the abandoned building, and the trialists were stunned for a moment, and followed in their footsteps.

The group burrowed into the ruins, and the moonlight above them was blocked by the buildings on top, and the light went dark.

But these people seem to be very familiar with the dark environment, and they are crawling left and right from street to street.

The trialists were far more physically powerful than these ordinary people, and they could see even in the dark, so they were firmly behind.

Song Qingxiao looked up at the buildings around him as he advanced.

The complex was much larger than she had imagined, about five meters high, and the ground was covered with sand and dust, and the ruins looked mottled.

Along the way, many collapsed boulders blocked the way, adding to the desolation of the abandoned building.

Such a complex of buildings looks like a city that has been abandoned for a long time, and there is no end in sight.

At nightfall, the abandoned complex was unusually cold, and the chill was like an invisible needle that was about to penetrate into the bones of people.

The 'whirring' sound of the wind piercing through the abandoned streets, kicking up the fine sand on the ground, bringing with it a strange smell, like the rotten smell of old buildings mixed with the fishy smell to form a peculiar desolate smell.

After everyone walked by, each foot hit the ground, and the dry sand was trampled on with a 'brush' sound, and the footsteps of everyone sank into it between the slides, and were covered by the cold sand.

Song Qing had doubts in his heart, what kind of place is this place, and who built these cities? And why is it deserted? And it seems that the time of desertion is not short.

It seemed that she had stepped on something under her feet, making a 'squeak' sound, Song Qing paused and leaned over to touch it.

She stopped, and the number two who followed her involuntarily stopped, and asked vigilantly:

"What's wrong?"

In this unfamiliar environment, everyone raised their vigilance, and as soon as Number Two spoke, Number One and Number Four, who were walking side by side in front of them, also paused.

The others also stood still, and they all subconsciously turned their heads.

Song Qingxiao grabbed a handful of sand from under her feet, and after spreading her palms, most of the sand slipped through her fingers, leaving behind a conch about the size of a ping-pong ball.

The conch had been petrified and had apparently been buried in the sand for many years.

"It's okay, I picked up a snail stone."

It turned out to be just a false alarm!

As soon as she said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, even the group of people who had rescued the trialists who had calmly faced the giant spider before were much more relaxed.

"It's been flooded before, so it's not unusual to have something like this."

When he said this, everyone felt a little curious again, but at this time the man was not ready to say too much, probably because of this false alarm, he quickened his pace, so that the words that Number One wanted to ask came to his mouth and swallowed back, ready to talk later.

After this little episode, when everyone stepped on some snail stones and other objects, they were not as surprised as before.

This ruined city seemed to have no end, everyone followed behind this group of people silently, and after walking for more than an hour, Song Qingxiao suddenly spoke:

"Wait a minute."

Her voice was heard between the broken pillars of the wall, and the echoes were transmitted back and forth:

"Wait a minute......"

"Wait a minute......"

"Wait ......"

With the sound of the 'woo' wind, it shows a cold and weird feeling, which is quite scary.

The footsteps of the advancing team were interrupted again by her words, and the man at the head turned his head, his eyes dark in the darkness, and his tone was flat and unfluctuating:

"What's wrong again?"

The unhappiness hidden in his words was noticed by Song Qingxiao, and the people who followed him all the way were also extremely displeased with Song Qingxiao, exuding a little hostility, causing the silver wolf to roar in warning!

The moment the wolf's howl sounded, a wave of pride spread and suppressed everyone who was disgruntled.

In addition to the trialists, these bow-wielding people instinctively retreated, subconsciously distanced themselves from the trialists, and put their hands on the quivers, as if they were about to do it if they didn't agree with each other.

No. 1 and No. 4 also involuntarily took a step back, getting closer to Song Qingxiao and No. 2, and the two sides divided into two camps, facing each other at a distance of less than one meter.

"We've been walking for too long and we're a little tired,"

As the initiator of this conflict, Song Qingxiao didn't seem to realize the impact of his previous actions, and asked, "When can I take a break?" ”

'Whew'!

The man let out a sigh of relief, and then burst out laughing:

"It was indeed my negligence." With his smile, the tense atmosphere of the sword and crossbow in the abandoned building suddenly relaxed, except for No. 4 with a calm face and a silent voice, No. 1 and No. 2 also laughed.

"We've been living in this place for a long time, and we've been hiking for a long time, and we've forgotten for a while that you've just arrived."

Speaking of this, he raised his arm and shouted:

"Let's rest for a while before we go!"

When he finished speaking, the others were silent, apparently accustomed to listening to him give orders.

The group walked some way forward and entered an abandoned stone house.

As soon as everyone entered, the people who held the bows in the trial scene were extremely skillful in taking out the tools and other things from their bodies to make fires, and in a short time, a small pile of fire was born on the ground of the stone house, and some food was placed around it.
