Chapter 14: The Ancient Cave
The soul bell ingests the soul and shocks the soul. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
After accidentally losing the body of a three-and-a-half-monster bird, Shirley quickly found a breakthrough and used the Soul Bell to control the three chicks and reduce some of the losses. If the three-headed chick can grow up, its strength in the future may not be below its parent and mother.
At this moment, Shirley took out another display screen and looked at the screen with a frown.
"Damn, these people really have a lot of equipment."
Not long ago, in order to record the process of the team killing the strange birds, Shirley specially turned on a small camera, and now this camera fell in the grass, just in time to capture the actions of the corpse snatching team. It's a pity that all three of Shirley's hired people fell in a pool of blood, and I hurt them. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have died in a foreign land.
Seeing this scene, for a while, an irrepressible anger rose in my heart.
There were a dozen people on the cliff, but in terms of equipment, there were only three to five professional adventurers at most, and all the others were mercenaries.
"It's the Black Shark Group, Brother Zhiyuan, you see, these adventurers all have a circle of sharks tattooed on their necks." Shirley pointed to the screen and said to me in an emotional voice.
"Black Shark Regiment, what is the origin?" I asked.
Shirley said: "This is a branch of the Arras circus organization, it is said that this group of people was first born as a whale trainer, and after the Industrial Revolution, they switched to shark training, which is a more gloomy branch of the Arras circus organization. I didn't expect to run into them here. ”
Shirley said this, her face suddenly turned sideways: "Maybe the people who received our bounty and told us the whereabouts of the jellyfish corpse flower are these guys!" This thing was a trap from the beginning! ”
Shirley spoke, blurting out a foul word in French, which showed that the little girl was indeed extremely angry.
"If that's the case, then the minds of this group of people are a little terrifying." I sighed with anger.
Shirley said again: "These bloodthirsty sharks are so hateful! Perhaps because the opponent was too strong, after knowing the identity of the corpse snatcher, Shirley just sighed helplessly, but didn't say anything. There are all kinds of forces in the Anas Adventurer's Guild, and it is difficult for a lonely girl like Shirley to deal with.
The blow on the top of the cliff continues, and the only chance we have to get out of the cliff is to wait, and when the members of the Black Shark Regiment disperse, we can naturally leave.
However, it backfired, and the Black Shark Regiment, who snatched the corpse of the strange bird, apparently did not intend to let Shirley and me go. Soon, we saw an amazing scene on the electronic screen, a strong man with a height of 2 meters, at the signal of an adventurer, took a bazooka with a diameter of more than 20cm, and came to the edge of the cliff.
"Oh no, let's go!" Seeing this scene, Shirley's slightly ruddy face became bloodless again, and at the same time, Shirley tied me and her together again, and at the same time, took out an intact rappelling rope and said to me: "Jump!" ”
In the face of the disaster, although I was too tired to do it, I still followed Shirley's movements, tilted my center of gravity to the outside of the cliff platform, and instantly felt weightless, and Shirley and I fell quickly again. At the same time, I looked back and saw three chicks that had not yet learned to fly and jumped out of the nest after me, flapping their wings in the air at the same time.
The three birds followed me like a bird daddy!
Bang!
Just as we left the cliff platform, a huge fireball mixed with the terrifying impact force collided towards the platform, and in an instant, a violent explosion completely shook the cliff. At the same time, the hook claw hanging from the cliff of the rappelling rope was destroyed by the force of the huge impact, and without warning, Shirley and I were instantly thrown off the high cliff without reservation!
What's worse is that Shirley, who has been in the upper position, was hit on the back by a falling rock, and she fainted for a while.
"Shirley!"
Despite my shouting, Shirley did not recover.
The bazooka overhead continued to fire ammunition, and the entire mountain wall rumbled!
The three chicks seemed to have learned to fly as they fell, and kept approaching us, stretching out their claws to try to hold us, but unfortunately they didn't use the right force, and they hurt me. At the moment of my death, I vaguely realized that I could control these three birds!
"Stop, stop!"
"Time, pause!"
There is a drop of more than 170 meters between the cliff platform and the underground river, although the underground is a river, but people who have studied physics know that when a person falls from a high altitude unsuspectingly, the impact force on himself is like smashing on the concrete floor, and the tension of the water surface can completely smash us to pieces. Even professional divers can't withstand such a high level of impact.
"Stop, stop!" After Shirley was unconscious, no one was able to throw a new rappelling rope, and at the same time, the gravitational potential was so strong that my time control had little effect.
No, you have to stop!
The height of more than 170 meters did not allow us to fall into the water, and soon, our bodies were already in contact with the boundless mist, and the turbulent river surface was more than ten meters below. At this critical moment, I suddenly felt a slight lightness in my body, and before I could react to what was going on, Shirley and I were swallowed up by the dark underground river at the same time.
The huge impact slapped on my body, and for a moment, I felt as if all the internal organs of my limbs were about to shatter, and a pain with a violent feeling of choking soon spread to every pore on my body, and for a moment I felt as if the bones of my whole body had been shattered.
The confusion of consciousness came almost in a fraction of a second. The water broke the protective belt between me and Shirley, and before I had time to call, Shirley had disappeared in front of me, and for a moment, I could feel my heart completely cold! It's a sense of boundless despair!
Then I saw three chicks follow me into the water, and really, within a second, I was completely unconscious, and my head was full of images of Shirley being washed away before I fell unconscious.
Blame me, blame me!
Before I was completely unconscious, I thought that I might be dead, but when the aches and pains hit my body again, the terrifying feeling instantly woke me up in a coma.
Ahem, ahem!
Waking up in a coma, in addition to the spasming pain, the lungs are also choking.
"Didn't you die?" In the process of struggling, I asked myself this question over and over again, and at the same time, the image of Shirley being walked away by the flood kept reappearing in my mind, and the pain and guilt made me cry out heartbreakingly.
Of course, this howl is not only a catharsis of despair, but also an expression of hatred.
In addition, shouting incessantly can reduce the pain on one's body, which is another magical instinct that human beings have mastered since 10,000 years of evolution, distracting the brain and deceiving their nerves! At that time, I didn't realize how terrifying my thoughts were, but in fact, when a person can really deceive his nerves, it will become very terrifying!
Pain is an expression of bioelectrical stimulation of the brain, and human beings perform surgery on patients through external paralysis. If one day, someone has mastered the ability to deceive their nerves, then this person will be able to easily receive treatment without any paralysis at all. Because such a person can minimize the pain sensation or even eliminate it completely.
And even if this person is able to deceive someone else's nerves, then can he magnify someone else's pain by a hundredfold, or more!
In the process of constantly trying to distract myself, I saw three chicks flying around me.
Thankfully, the pocket watch given by Shirley wasn't broken, and the time was still the same day, but more than four hours had passed!
Ah, I know why it hurts so much. My jellyfish corpse tweed! At this time, I began to feel the numbness in my left leg, and this paralysis seemed to be spreading rapidly.
"Ahh
It hurts, it really hurts! The injuries I suffered when I fell into the water, and the petrification of my left leg almost tore me apart!
And in the process of my constant howling, a strange scene happened again.
One of the largest chicks hovering beside me suddenly left me and disappeared into the night. Just when I was almost fainting from the pain again, I saw this guy come with two things, one is a soul bell and the other is a jellyfish corpse flower.
The chicks came to me and threw the jellyfish over my head.
Not daring to think about it, I grabbed the jellyfish corpse flower, whether it was dirty or not, and first stuffed the corpse flower into my mouth and chewed it non-stop, and at the same time swallowed the konjac-like rhizome that had been soaked in the foul mud all year round like a pudding.
The smell of corpse flowers stinks, probably like the rotting smell of rat corpses.
The jellyfish-like tubers didn't taste like they tasted, just disgusting, like a big stream of cold snot.
Swallowing this jellyfish corpse flower into my stomach, my stomach churned again in a terrible heart-lung pain, and in an instant I fell into a coma again!
……
I, I don't want to eat anything like this again!
I don't know how long it took for me to hear the chirping of chicks in my ears, and when I opened my eyes again, I saw that the three guys were eating a mouse the size of a lamb, and the mouse was already a blur of flesh and blood.
Vomit! The smell of the rat reminded me of the corpse flower, and the thought of the jellyfish corpse flower I had swallowed before made me almost faint again.
However, after calming down a little, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my left leg was already sensible, and my whole body no longer seemed to be in pain. In the world of adventurers, there is a saying of "real medicine", which refers to all plants in the world that have lived for more than a hundred years, especially medicinal, even if it is a poisonous weed, as long as it is carried, it also has its effect of strengthening the body and bones.
Obviously, the jellyfish corpse flower not only neutralized the petrified toxins in my body, but also healed the wounds I had suffered when I fell into the water.
So now the question is, where am I and where is Shirley?
