The eclipse birds that Burning Xiang had said before did not see them in this dense red mist environment, and the surrounding environment was depressingly silent, and they did not stop until they were in front of the spiral pillar.

"This is the spiral column?"

Chen Shi looked up as much as he could, and as far as his eyes could see, a steel pillar with a diameter of about seven meters stood in the ground, and then spread upwards to nowhere.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at the base of the spiral pillar, which naturally could not be smooth and unstable, otherwise the only way for them to want to go up was for the people above to hang them up.

And he didn't actually need to explain to him, he could see what they were going to do next.

The appearance of the steel column has a steel plate protruding every half a meter, and then spirals upwards along the surface of the spiral column.

"We're going up this line?"

Xingdian was surprised.

"That's right, so you get it, right?"

Ran Xiang smiled helplessly and bitterly: "This is really a dangerous job, and I don't know how many people have lost their lives on this in Shikoku, and when you came, you saw not only stones, but also many bones?" ”

Xingdian trembled a little, not only it, but the ice next to it trembled even more, this is too dangerous, much more dangerous than the stone steps of the ninth layer, at least the stone steps there are much wider than this, and there are no monsters to harass them. And the steel staircase of this spiral column, not to mention a large layer of space in the middle, the width and the length that extends out are also very narrow, and the physical and psychological requirements are too high.

"Ahem, I see."

Chen Shi didn't need to say much, he looked back at Xingdian: "Take out the rope." ”

Rope?

Xingdian hurriedly took out the rope.

"Everyone binds themselves with ropes......

This is also a common method of mountaineering, but generally speaking, this method is dangerous and may implicate other people, but Chen Shiwei is not afraid, with the power of his gamma suit, even if Xingdian, Bingyu, 1214-B01 and the girl fall together, they can all be lifted up.

"You ...... I don't mind you doing that. ”

Ran Xiang understood Chen Shi's approach, and it shook its head slightly, "It's too dangerous." ”

"Thank you."

Chen Shi appreciated it, but he would not give up, and quickly made Xingdian and them ready.

Seeing that Chen Shi still wanted to do this, Ran Xiang didn't dissuade him too much, "Before I go up, let me explain the predation characteristics of the eclipse birds, although the eclipse birds generally act alone, but once they alarm one eclipse bird, they will also attract the attention of the other eclipse birds, and their real aggression is actually a collective action...... In addition, the eyesight of the birds is very weak, and you can see the surroundings, and the eyesight does not help much in this place, so their biggest feature is ......"

"Ears?"

Chen Shi asked.

"That's right, they rely on hearing, and their hearing is very sharp, so if you spot an eclipse bird, you must not make any noise."

At the end of the conversation, Ran Xiang walked in the front, followed by Chen Shi, then 1214-B01 carrying the girl on his back, and Xingdian and Bingyu with the supply box at the back.

A group of people stepped on the empty steel plate, slowly climbed upward, every time, they were thirty or forty meters above the ground, looking down from this position, it was already dizzying again, not to mention the timid people, the bold people also had weak legs.

Chen Shi's face did not change, and he could not fall to the height of ordinary people's death, so after the initial psychological discomfort, he quickly adapted to the same.

"Ga ......"

The sudden hoarse cry, like a duck stuck in the owner's neck, was both startling and extremely unpleasant, and it suddenly brought the advancing team to a sudden halt.

"Be careful, it's an eclipse bird, don't speak."

Ran Xiang raised his hand, and his tone was also cautious.

"Whirring ......"

As soon as the words fell, a xenomorph monster suddenly passed through the red mist, and suddenly flew above the heads of Chen Shi and the others, because the speed was too fast, Xingdian They only saw a shadow shooting over, and they didn't see its true face, but Chen Shi played back the image with the help of the gamma suit, and immediately saw what the so-called eclipse bird was.

The monster looked like a flying turkey, with a nearly bare head and neck, only a few sparse feathers, and a red sarcoma like a turkey. But it is much larger, with a wingspan of more than four meters, and its jaws are full of sharp teeth, making it an extremely powerful carnivore.

And this eclipsed bird has not just one, but three!

There were three heads on one body, and it looked like a mutated radiation creature.

Everyone held their breath and didn't dare to move, even if Chen Shi was not afraid of these aliens, he was afraid of being besieged and falling, he might be fine in the end, and the rest of them would be broken into meat patties.

None of the group dared to make the slightest movement, and the eclipse bird finally spread its wings and quickly flew into the red mist beside it.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was about to move on, suddenly there was a commotion in the red mist, and another eroding bird flew out, and unlike the previous eroding bird that only passed by, this eroding bird actually flew to this side, landed on its claws, retracted its wings, and landed on the steel plate above the heads of Chen Shi and others, and began to clean up in a good time.

“？？？”

Everyone was stunned, even the direction of the burning was stunned, the eclipse birds generally build nests on the stone walls, or fly in the air, or go to the ground to find food, and there are very few eclipse birds that fall on the spiral pillars. It's not that I'm afraid of the spiral column, but the eclipse bird seems to dislike the spiral column, and adventurers have observed the behavior of the eclipse bird falling on the spiral column several times over the years.

They were so unlucky?

It's just that, just above their heads that they have to pass by?

This change was too sudden, and Ran Xiang hurriedly glanced at Chen Shi behind him, signaling not to act recklessly, disturbing this eclipse bird, which would alarm thousands of eclipse birds together.

Chen Shi didn't move, and neither did the people behind him.

So what's next?

Chen Shi didn't move, because he thought that adventurers had been going on for hundreds of years, and it was impossible not to have a way to deal with the birds.

Walking quietly without alarming the bird is certainly a way, but everything cannot be foolproof, so adventurers will inevitably have other ways to deal with the birds.

Sure enough, Chen Shi and they didn't move, and the adventurer in front of them slowly reached into his arms, took out a small bottle, slowly unscrewed it, stretched out his hand and lifted it, and put it a few meters below the eclipse bird.

Chen Shi smelled a familiar smell.

It's kind of like ...... The smell of heather?
