Four days have passed, and Luo Xia's super recovery power, which is enough for ordinary people to lie in bed for several months, has basically been controlled. At least without a fierce battle, ordinary operations are no longer a big problem.

Since the mission, it has taken half a month, and the remaining half of the time has to run 4 places, and even have to merge information with Chen is and Ellie to analyze the abandoned mine pit that may have problems. This time it was delayed for four or five days in a row, and the time was no longer sufficient.

He got up and climbed onto the back of a giant lizard with his luggage, and began to move back towards his goal. Well, it's another cold-blooded summon, and Luo Xia is almost powerless to complain.

The Giant Back Lizard is more than 3 meters long and only a little more than 1 meter tall, but it has a carapace-like shell on its back. Just be careful with some of the sword spikes on it, and with the way it walks against its belly, it is completely the best mount template, smooth and swift. This is also the reason why Luo Xia was ready to set off before his injuries were all healed. On the one hand, this is close to half a day's summoning time, which can recover from injuries by the way, and on the other hand, it is also a lazy cancer attack, and it is too rare to be able to travel so comfortably in the forest.

If it weren't for the strength of the giant-backed lizard, he would have wanted to give him a long-term appointment like Xiao Hi.

The moment Luo Xia sat down, he casually threw a finger-sized insect on the ground, and then directed the giant-backed lizard to move in the direction of the target.

I don't know if it's an illusion, he always feels that something is following him, but I hope it's not the terrible black panther.

Until the connection between Luo Xia and the insect was almost severed due to the distance, suddenly a faint thought came from the other side, as if to convey a message to him, something appeared where he was before, and it stayed there...

Unfortunately,

After all, it's just an ordinary insect or something, and it doesn't make the problem clear. Luo Xia didn't know if it was a coincidence or if something was really following him, or if it wasn't something, but someone...

If something or someone did follow him, how long? If it is a human being, who will it be?

He summoned a small insect in his hand, thought about it, and pretended to make a sign on a tree to prevent getting lost: this is something that many people do casually.

And then left the insect on it, just enough to block.

When he was about to lose contact, Luo Xia suddenly found that the insects left there had not had time to transmit the above information, and they lost signs of life in an instant. A slight tingling in my mind (this is a normal reaction to the unexpected death of a minion, and the strength of this backlash is related to the strength and closeness of the minion).

It's people!

He marked high enough, but not enough weight to carry enough weight for a creature like a panther to climb up, so only a man of astute movements or something like that could go up and check his mark.

The information obtained twice in a row indicates that the other party is indeed following him, and he is cautious.

So, the question is when do you track yourself? Or is it, from the very beginning...

The sudden tracking made Luo Xia's face ugly, and he sat on the back of the giant-backed lizard with a gloomy face, thinking about the cause and effect between the front and back.

Obviously, if it is a human being, then the other party must not come with good intentions, because the tracking distance is too far, and it will not help at all in case of crisis. But if you want to say malicious, it is not necessarily.

He thought of several possibilities, but he wasn't sure about any of them, until he unconsciously glanced at his backpack and a thoughtful glint flashed in his eyes...

After sparing a circle, Luo Xia avoided the area where the battle with the black panther took place, walked for an extra two hours on the mountain road, and finally came to the destination of this trip, a black iron mine cave abandoned decades ago.

Black iron is the most widely used metal in the world, it has higher strength and enchantment ability than ordinary iron, but the weight is not much different, both ordinary people and professionals, it is fond of it.

And here, it used to be a famous black iron pit in the early days of southern Xinjiang, and what makes people sigh is that after only a few decades of hard work, this land that was once prosperous was completely swallowed up by forests and time.

On the land under Luo Xia's feet, you can still vaguely see the shadow of a village of a small scale back then. But now, there are vines and weeds everywhere, and if you weren't in it, you wouldn't have discovered a human site here.

Luo Xia opened the vines and found that what appeared to be the eaves of a collapsed house was exposed underneath, he frowned, and muttered with some uncertainty: "I hope it's not so unlucky..."

The collapsed eaves are very consistent with the style of this world, mainly stone, with a small number of giant trees and construction aids stability, very rough and stable.

Luo Xia just felt that if this village was originally full of houses like this, even if everyone was gone, it shouldn't have collapsed in 'short' decades.

Pinch a poisonous snake that pounces on him from the grass and stuffs it into his backpack as an ingredient.

Because of the previous things, Luo Xia had a sense of foreboding, and this time the pit was obviously completely different from the previous situation. Plans that were originally intended to come and gather information could be in unexpected danger. Luo Xia could only change his plan and let the lizards start patrolling freely around the area, and he chose a collapsed building with relatively open terrain as a temporary residence to continue to recuperate in case of possible situations.

After carefully cleaning up and barely being able to live in people, Luo Xia picked up his backpack and climbed towards the hill behind the abandoned village.

The hill is not high, but it is a rare mountain in this area, and when Luo Xia climbed to the top of the mountain, the depression of wandering in the dense and gloomy jungle for several days was suddenly swept away.

The sky is blue and the earth is verdant, and a long strip of valley is dotted between the vast forests and seas, and a winding stream like a ribbon is wrapped around it. This beautiful valley is like the most beautiful place nurtured by the forest...

The pit that Luo Xia was looking for was on the other side of this valley, a place of surprisingly beauty.

The valley is not large, only about a hundred meters wide, but nearly a kilometer long, and because of the low terrain, there is just a section of underground river that overflows from the foot of the valley, winds around the valley, and disappears into a dark river that leads to the unknown ground.

Originally, this may be a paradise with pleasant scenery and no quarrel with the world...

Luo Xia, who was sighing about the beautiful scenery on the top of the mountain, suddenly stared at him and quickly lowered his body.

Alien creatures walking upright were roaming the valley, scattered in groups throughout the canyon.

Alien Creature: A twisted creature that has failed to evolve, a semi-intelligent race, with a humanoid stature, but possessing the head and bizarre habits of an animal.

They have existed in this world since some time, and have never risen to prominence, and they are seen as mutants of beasts, despite their simple intelligence and ability to communicate, and are not recognized by the mainstream intelligent races, or even by the equally mutated Inhumans.

Alienated races generally have a strong reproductive ability, most of which are wild and aggressive, but there are also some races, active on the chassis of the major races.

For example, the jackal who has milk is a mother has the reputation of being a friend of cannon fodder; the inexpensive rat man is a good hand at digging holes and digging pits for demolition, and his huge fecundity will not feel sorry even if it is demolished and collapsed; and for example, the sheep-headed man is born to plant and is a slave of a large manor, but sometimes he has some indescribable strange hobbies, so that they are not as widely accepted as the first two.

Well, except for these few races, the other alienated races seem to be completely chaotic, uncommunicable existences, and most of them have their own cannibal and bandit attributes.

Even among the above three groups, the vast majority of the population is a dangerous species living in the wild.

Luo Xia took out a monocular and hid in the bushes to watch carefully.

The Nezumen, a half-human-tall alienated race that specializes in burrowing, mining, and demolition, possess simple intelligence and can be easily enslaved by other races.

But that doesn't mean they're not dangerous, they're still considered twisted creatures, murderous and chaotic by nature. It's just that their strong reproductive ability and weak strength make them ubiquitous but ravaged in various ways. For a long time, it has naturally formed the nature of clinging to the strong.

So if they don't think you're strong, you'll be no worse than any other twisted creature in terms of ferocity and tyranny. Especially the wild nezumi in front of you is naturally full of aggression.

What was different from Luo Xia's imagination was that most of the rat people in the valley were wounded, and it seemed that something had attacked them.

If you roughly count the whole canyon alone, there are no less than 4,500 nezumi that can be seen, let alone the inside of the mine.

The entire valley in front of me was basically eaten away due to the presence of the rat people, and it seemed very empty, and it was obviously impossible to blend in.

Luo Xia observed for a long time, until it was dark, there were still rat people coming in and out from time to time, and he couldn't find the slightest chance to sneak in safely.

He is not a head iron, and it is impossible for him to fight or find death for the sake of the military intelligence that he has no good feelings about, and this is not a game after all, and he can get out of the battle by running from a safe distance.

So using the otherworldly camera to record the scene in the valley, Luo Xia decided to retreat the same way and go to join Chen is them first. Even, if everyone has no opinion, it is not impossible to choose to give up, after all, the task is only to investigate the pit, not to go deep into the pit.

Before leaving, Luo Xia glanced behind him, and then showed a meaningful smile.
