Chapter 529: Attack [First Update]
"It's ...... There is another lair. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ian looked at the oval white eggs that stood silently around him, and was a little stunned.
Ruby swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Isn't this the ovary of the Wind Listener?" Could it be that these ...... Are they all unhatched listeners? ”
Hearing his words, the eyes of Luna, Rosemary and the others lit up, revealing a bit of greed and fiery, if these are the eggs of the wind listeners, it means that these are rare monster cubs, as long as they hatch into the growth period, they can slaughter and take out the parasitic soul worms, and judging from the number of eggs and eggs densely packed around, there are dozens of them, it is simply a windfall!
Rumble!
Suddenly, there was a violent roar from the cavern above their heads, pulling everyone's thoughts back to reality, and before everyone could react, they heard an angry roar, so loud that it exploded like angry thunder.
At this roar, the entire nest shuddered slightly, and the black slimy material on the rock wall fell off.
Ian and the others' faces turned pale instantly, and they hurriedly looked up, and a large amount of sand and dust fell from the hole they had dug, and it seemed that it would collapse at any moment.
"Quick, find an exit." Ian said quickly.
Du Dian shook his head slightly and said, "It's useless, there is no road here, it's closed." ”
Ruby, Luna and the others, who were just about to act, were stunned and looked at him in bewilderment, with a hint of fear in their eyes, as if fear was really as Dudian said.
Du Dian smiled slightly bitterly and said: "There is no wind around at all, and don't you feel it, captain, the temperature here is very high, much higher than the surface, if I guess correctly, the environment here is structured according to the environment of the ovaries, to hatch these eggs, a higher temperature is required, so the wind listener has completely closed this place, even if there is a passage, it is also closed, it needs to be chiseled, and the passage will only be connected to the cave above." ”
Hearing his words, everyone reacted, and the abnormal temperature and sultry air around them were indeed as Dudiando said, without a trace of breeze.
Luna couldn't help but say, "So, what should we do?" Wait here to die, that thing will go into the cave later, find this place, won't we fall into the net? ”
Ian's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "So far, I can only fight to the death, immediately set up traps, prepare for battle, and rush out if you find an opportunity, Ruby and Eugene, you look for an exit first, maybe there are other exits." ”
Ruby and Eugene nodded, held their torches high, and walked down the gap between the white eggs, and after a while, the two returned to the front of the group, and Ruby said abruptly, "There really is no exit, there are rock walls everywhere." ”
Hearing this, Ian and the others, who were holding the last glimmer of hope, also looked gloomy and a little lost, but they were prepared before, and they were not too disappointed.
Ian and Martin quickly cleaned up and continued to prepare the traps in their hands, including poison nets made of special materials, and easy-to-carry trap materials such as dark arrow projectiles, which were placed in the shadows under the hole.
After a few moments, the trap was made.
Ian took a deep breath, took a few steps back, hid near a white egg next to him, and whispered, "Prepare for an ambush." ”
Everyone waited with bated breath.
After a few minutes, Martin suddenly spoke, and said in a low voice, "It seems that there has been no movement up there for a long time. ”
Ian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that since the previous roar, the movement above had gradually stopped, could it be that the thing had given up chasing them?
Luna, who was hiding behind another white egg, whispered, "Could it be that its body is too big and stuck in the cave and can't get in?" ”
"Possibly." Ian's eyes flickered slightly, remembering the location of the roar he heard earlier, and shook his head, "It should still be in the cave and hasn't left." ”
Naturally, everyone knew this, and if they left, the loud footsteps would gradually go away, but it did not, but stopped, and it was evident that the thing seemed to be ready to wait for the rabbit after squeezing into the burrow.
After continuing to squat for a while, Eugene was the first to stand up, gasping for breath, and said, "It's too hot here, since it can't get in, why don't we wait up there?" ”
Ian frowned, and immediately said: "Be quiet, don't alarm it, something of this size has a big appetite, and it generally doesn't have much patience, and it will leave after a while, don't act rashly." ”
Eugene shrugged, but didn't say anything more.
Gradually, as there was no sound outside, everyone walked out of their respective hiding places, one by one as if they had been fished out of the water, their messy hair hanging down on the hard skull, only Ian had no sweat on his body, and his body temperature was very normal.
"Are we just going to wait?" Ruby asked.
Ian nodded, "Wait until it leaves." ”
Seeing that there was no other way, everyone didn't say anything more, and each found a clean place to sit down and rest. It's just that there is hardly half a clean space in this nest, and the ground is full of slimy things, like feces and slime secreted from monsters, and some like molten soft skin, sticky and sticky together, like mud, emitting a strong stench.
In the sweltering heat, the stench evaporates to the extreme.
Luna clutched her nose, her face pale, her body limp, as if she was going to fall unconscious at any moment.
Ian, Martin and the others were a little worried when they saw that she was not doing well. Ian fanned Luna and said, "Drink some water, take a break." ”
Luna nodded weakly, took out the water from the backpack and drank some, her face was slightly better, but it didn't take long for her to sweat profusely again, her face was extremely pale, and she sat down on the ground.
Martin frowned and said, "It's not a way to go on like this, the smell here is too strong, otherwise, let Luna go up first and stay on it." ”
Ian looked at Luna, who would be stunned at any moment, hesitated, and nodded.
Together, the group sent Luna out of the hole.
Luna lay on the edge of the hole above her head, gasping for the "fresh" air outside, slightly soothing.
Du Dian saw Luna's appearance, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately, he replaced the "Dreadnobe" demon mark in time, the overly sensitive sense of smell is good at some times, but the weakness is also very obvious, although Luna is not a noble lady, not so pretentious, and can tolerate some unpleasant smells, but this is not a matter of enduring, but the physiological reaction of the body.
It's like some people smell certain smells and vomit.
Among the five senses of people, smell is the strongest sense of nerve stimulation, and excessive stimulation of nerves causes the body to be unable to bear it and coma is also normal, and it is not considered a poor psychological quality.
"Let's spread out, don't huddle around." Ian said to the rest.
Everyone sat in their respective positions a little more openly, and waited silently.
The nest ** was silent, only the dense white eggs were gently beating one by one.
An hour, two hours...... In the blink of an eye, more than ten hours passed, and there was still no movement on the cave, and even one suspected that the thing had left.
But the people still did not dare to act rashly, for it was very likely that the thing was asleep there.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
In the lair, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, although after five days, everyone had already become accustomed to this stuffy and smelly environment, but what they didn't expect was that what caused such a big movement before could wait outside for so long!
According to Ian's initial inference, this thing should be gone soon, not even more than a day.
But now it's been five days, and there's still no movement outside.
"It's so hot here, our food is going bad." Rosemary took out the water and drank a little, only moistened her lips and put it away, and said to Ian, "If we continue like this, we will starve to death in this." ”
Despite the lack of physical exertion during the wait, their daily basic needs were still high, and their food was sealed and waterproof, but it could not withstand the heat.
Ian's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.
Seeing that he had no plan, Rosemary sighed, turned her head to look at Ruby, before entering the cave, Ruby discarded the burden of food, and now they can only rely on the food in their backpacks to survive, and these foods are only enough for them to save food for half a month, although after half a month, they will not starve to death, but in the state of being empty all the time, the condition of all aspects of the body will naturally decline, including reflexes.
"I don't think it's the way to keep waiting." Du Dian glanced at the people sitting around the cave, and seeing that the time was almost up, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "If that thing falls asleep, it will be half a month to sleep, and we won't be able to last so long." ”
"So what do you say?" Martin squinted at Dudian and said that although Dudian had performed well in the previous few times, he was already a little irritated after five days of being here.
Dudian looked at Eugene, who was sitting next to a white egg, and said, "I think we need to send someone to check on the situation, to see if the thing is really asleep, or if it is quietly gone, if it is, we may be able to quietly leave while it is asleep." ”
