Chapter 550: Breakout
During the long wait, Huang Cheng had already infiltrated the ruins of the old camp for nearly two hours.
Fang Jin and Song Miao, who were waiting outside to answer, faintly felt a little uneasy in their hearts. However, the two also knew that if something really happened, there could be no movement in the ruins of the old camp. Therefore, although the two were a little worried, they could still wait patiently.
"In another quarter of an hour, if you don't come out yet, Song Miao, you can put a war eagle up and take a look."
Fang Jin estimated the travel time on the map, and set a time limit for the restless Song Miao without raising his head.
But before he could finish speaking, the evil beasts flying up and down in the sky, as if they had suddenly discovered something, suddenly changed their posture and began to swoop down.
Immediately afterward, the faint roar of monsters and the sound of buildings collapsing could be heard from inside the ruins.
"Not good!"
Fang Jin and Song Miao immediately realized that Huang Cheng was exposed!
After all, at this time, there could be no one else in the ruins of this old camp!
Without Fang Jin's order, Song Miao released the reconnaissance war eagle again.
With the help of the vision provided by the warhawk that quickly rose in height, as well as the positioning of those evil beasts that were diving and attacking, Song Miao quickly locked onto Huang Cheng at a straight-line distance not far away.
He was being chased by a terrifying-looking femme fatale, locked by a golden spell that made Huang Cheng's stealth seem to have no effect. In front of and on both sides of Huang Cheng's breakthrough, there were at least three or four evil beasts that sensed the abnormality and were rapidly approaching and encircling it.
The nearest end was less than a hundred meters away from him.
What's even worse is that more than a dozen flying evil beasts in the sky are still taking turns to dive and attack!
Thanks to Huang Cheng's timely response, he made a wise decision: after realizing that he couldn't break out in one go, he directly drove and crossed the street quickly. By a fraction of a second, he dodged the culling of four or five flying beasts and rolled into the ruins of a nearby stone fort.
This stone fort, when intact, had an area of at least six or seven hundred square meters, and was built with hard stone reinforced by magic. Although it has now collapsed into a veritable ruin, large tons of boulders have been piled up and intertwined, forming an extremely complex space.
A thief who is not very tall is like a fish in water hiding in the ruins of such a stone fort.
The swooping flying beasts lost their aim and were forced to stop attacking.
Even the femme fatale beast that persistently pursued him reluctantly stopped at the edge of the ruins. But after a few moments, it angrily flapped its tail and pincers and began to destroy it completely.
With the speed of a powerful silver-rank evil beast, the ruins of this stone castle obviously couldn't last long, and they couldn't protect Huang Cheng forever.
"Damn it!"
Hiding at the bottom of the ruins, listening to the movement outside, Huang Cheng couldn't help but curse angrily.
He didn't expect that the femme fatale beast would be so difficult. can see through the stealth, not to mention, he can continue to lock, and his running speed is not slower than him.
Change to a relatively safe place, one-on-one, Huang Cheng still has a certain confidence to use the thief's skills and toxins to consume it, but now......
The situation is critical!
However, Huang Cheng still has no intention of passively waiting for death. The mark that the snake and scorpion had given him before should be gone in another minute. When the time comes, he can try to sneak away from the other end of the ruins that have turned away from the femme fatale.
"Bang! Bang! ”
Heavy, hard stones, broken apart by violence. The sound of collision from time to time made Huang Cheng's heart more and more nervous.
But at this moment, Huang Cheng's familiar griffin cry sounded in the sky.
"The Captain's Black Flame Griffon!"
Huang Cheng's heart moved, and he immediately realized that the person who answered him had noticed the change and took action as soon as possible, and he couldn't help but feel a little more grateful.
He immediately slipped from the depths of the ruins to the edge and peered through the gap.
At this moment, the Black Flame Storm Griffin had once again activated the power of the Wind Elemental, pulling those evil beasts high into the air, as far away as possible from this side, but not out of this empty space.
"Really?"
Huang Cheng had been with Fang Jin for a long time, and quickly guessed Fang Jin's response plan.
Sure enough, as the difficult flying evil beast was slightly drawn away, an arrow shot from afar, hitting the snake and scorpion evil beast that Huang Cheng hated so much.
A hundred meters away, Song Miao, who had failed to camouflage his skills, showed his figure.
Taking advantage of the rare time, he began to attack the femme fatale with all his might.
Using the pseudo-stealth effect provided by the Shadow Wizarding Ring, Fang Jin also joined the battle afterwards - the location where Huang Cheng was finally found was not too far from the edge of the ruins of the old camp, which gave the two of them the opportunity to reinforce at the first time.
With the full strength of the two masters, Fang Jin himself did not hesitate to wear out his weapons and opened the full-level sword soul!
This buff skill alone and maxed out base melee provides 20% of the physical critical hit.
Counting the critical hits that come with the basic attributes, in Fang Jin's set of output of the Sword of Punishment + Three-Stage Sword Dance + Cross Slash + Two Consecutive Slashes, three critical hits were triggered one after another, and the damage dealt was amazing.
The hard stone slab under the snake and scorpion beast shattered inch by inch because it couldn't withstand Fang Jin's attack power. The part where it was wounded by the sword was even more blurred with flesh and blood, and all the scales of the snake and scorpion were gone!
Although there were also other evil beasts that rushed to join in the attack on the three of them, they were either dragged down by Fang Jin's remnant flame mirror image or ignored for the time being.
They dealt with this femme fatale as fast as they could!
At this time, the flying beast that was lured away in the air had already found that it had been deceived. Some were still chasing the Black Flame Storm Griffin, while the rest began to turn around and dive down again towards the trio.
"Run!"
At this time, the three people who successfully joined Huang Cheng immediately began to break through outside the ruins.
Without this extremely fast femme fatale, Huang Cheng was able to enter the stealth smoothly. Fang Jin himself had an instantaneous step skill, continuous displacement, and ordinary evil beasts couldn't do anything about him.
When the ruins of the old camp were in a mess, the three Earth visitors finally broke out of the ruins.
The rest is much easier.
Although there were still six or seven silver-rank evil beasts persistently chasing and killing them, it was still no problem for the three of them to deal with twice the number of evil beasts of the same rank. What's more, when the three of them fought and retreated, and after they were far enough away from the ruins, these ruin beasts also had to retreat back - this move confirmed Fang Jin's previous guess.
Although they both looked quite embarrassed, and Fang Jin's Black Flame Storm Griffin was also injured a lot, after getting all 5 of the lost items from Huang Cheng, this adventure was worth it.
Not only was he able to exchange the Tears of the Soul and take them back to deal with Satsuma, the mysterious Twilight visitor, but he also got a chance to befriend the gold-level mage Dargon.
After a day's experience, Fang Jin, who initially had a certain understanding of the twilight world, had already given birth to a bold idea.
Although the earth plane has also suffered an apocalyptic crisis, this crisis comes more from the invasion of demonic beasts. The ecology itself has not been irreversibly damaged. At the very least, the living conditions of the members of the Salvation Guild were much better than those of the natives of this Spirit Star Lake camp.
So, can we take the opportunity to draw them to the earth world?
