Chapter 36: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
Anna was a little surprised by the expressions of these people, and thought that there would be a commotion and uneasiness when she and the others appeared, but the people present, whether it was some young children with sallow faces or bloated and fat women, from their eyes, Anna only saw murderous ferocity and contempt.
As if their behavior just now let them know the strength of themselves and others, a trace of uneasiness quickly occupied her mind, even if it was these women and children, would they have a chance of winning?
A pair of eagle-sharp eyes stared at them tightly, and the old man said, "How do you control the lions, Outlander, tell your purpose." ”
Darker gently pushed Anna with his elbow, his chin was on the side of her ear, and said softly: "Xiaoyu has confirmed, there is no one behind, as long as you know the location, it should be too late to escape if you rob it." ”
Anna showed a helpless smile, snatched and fled, how easy is it to say, looking at these lifeless looks, it is estimated that she will be killed by them before she finds the Book of Prophecy, but she still has to ask.
"This old man, we don't mean to encroach on your territory, we need a book, maybe it is very important to record, as for the lions, it is not us."
Anna can't describe it properly, because when they entered, the space had already been reminded, and the subjective disclosure of the content of the space would be directly erased.
The old man's mouth rose slightly, and his toothless smile seemed a little oozing, and his mouth showed undisguised contempt, "Foolish stranger, don't try to deceive the warrior of the forest with your clumsy lie, and lift that man up. He said to the two teenagers behind him.
The two teenagers behind the old man immediately turned around and walked to a thatched hut in the distance, and dragged out a corpse, which was Anna and their former teammate Cruise, with a visible wound on his chest, blood no longer flowing, and a strange powder on it, and he didn't know what it was used for.
When she saw Cruise's corpse, Anna already knew that no matter how she explained it, she was already at a loss for words, and that she and the others were dressed completely differently from them, and she brought out Cruise, thinking that this old man was just to show the wisdom of the jungle warriors.
Anna lowered her head and said softly, "Brother Guofeng used his ability to drag the others, Qi Duo'er used his ability to speed up, and took the opportunity to catch him, Duck and I blocked the crowd in front, this old man should be the leader of the tribe, and if we catch him, we will have hope." ”
"Outlander, is there anything else you'd like to explain?" Looking at the sneaky few people in front of him, he shouted again, as the head of the clan, he must know why the person in front of him was able to attract the giant lion, this is a matter of their survival.
"Honorable old man, we really have no intention of offending your territory, this corpse is not our companion, I can prove it to you." Anna gestured to Qiduoer, and the two women walked forward.
Seeing that the other men did not move, the old man did not have many doubts, although a strong and terrifying woman came in front of him, but it still could not arouse his alarm, as a jungle world where men are respected, women are just vassals of production and childbearing.
As they walked towards the high platform, the old man subconsciously felt that something was wrong, his brows furrowed deeply, and the two women who came over seemed to be fearless, could it be that the person lying down was really not their companion, he just wanted to stop them, but the blonde woman in front of him suddenly shouted.
"Do it!"
I saw a clear tremor under the high platform, the hard ground had become soft and muddy for some time, and everyone was sinking, but in just a few seconds, the ground stopped shaking, and one of the men in the group of strangers suddenly lost his strength, kneeling on the ground and gasping for air.
Although it was only a short moment, it was enough to decide the entire battle situation, I saw Qi Duo'er take three steps and make two steps, the short distance was only a moment under the blessing of her ability, like a breeze, the strong body turned into a phantom, and the old man was carried in her hands like a chicken, and several guards next to her had already been kicked to the ground, and Anna had not yet reacted.
The women and children in the audience let out angry screams, but unfortunately Anna and the others couldn't understand it at all, Duck had already run up and guarded one part of the high platform, while Lin Guofeng and Anna had already guarded another place together, and the old man carried by Qi Duoer shook his body angrily, but he was helpless.
"Chief, please tell me about the contents of the Book of Prophecy, and we will not harm any of you as long as we get it." Anna said to the red-faced old man.
At this time, the old man became more and more angry, and ignored Anna at all, since he received the inheritance, he had never experienced such a humiliating situation, but he didn't want to make a big mistake at this moment.
Each generation of patriarchs in the Panxing tribe has the inheritance of the previous generation, and each generation of leaders will pass on their knowledge and abilities to the next generation at the moment of death, so as to protect this place from generation to generation, which is also the reason why the old man can communicate with them, because he has the lingua franca of the mainland.
However, inherited to his generation, it has basically declined, and there is only one ability left, which his ancestors called: slaughtering nature, which is a way to stimulate the clansmen with sound waves, and the warnings of the ancestors have long faded in anger.
The old man uttered a strange sound, a combination of various cries and murmurs, and the voice grew louder and more piercing, like a morning bell, striking in everyone's hearts, and everyone, including Anna, felt a wave of irritability and anger rise, but then suppressed it.
At this time, the children and women in the audience were a little abnormal, their black eyes were bloodshot, their pupils slowly turned from black to scarlet, but muscles slowly appeared on their weak bodies, and their nails and canine teeth became longer and sharper, like humanoid monsters, constantly gasping.
"Bah, bloodthirsty, I thought it was a curse, look at my little heart." Qi Duoer patted her chest, and smashed the old man in her hand on the ground like a rag without care, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
If you look closely, you will find that when Qiduoer caught the old man just now, she didn't do anything to him and let him move, but the direction that the old man was looking in was always Anna and them.
"Qiduoer, what are you doing? What did you mean by that? Anna's brow furrowed deeply, the scene in front of her was completely unexpected.
"Although I don't like women, but for the sake of you being so responsible, let me explain to you, remember to exchange the perception skills, especially the old guy like this primitive tribe, the magic power is quite high, it's either a spell or witchcraft, and he often pulls a cushion on his back before he dies." After speaking, he nodded, a look of deep understanding.
But then he shook his head again, "Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot that you don't have a future." ”
"Who the hell are you!!" Anna shouted, the humanoid monsters in the audience had stopped changing, and a pair of scarlet eyes stared at everyone.
"Let's survive first." I don't know when, the woman named Qi Duoer has completely changed her appearance, with loose curly hair, an angular face, a pair of red lips on a faint beard, and a strong figure wearing a prison costume and a smile that looks nondescript.
