Chapter 101: The Infiltration of the Hive
On the side of Miracle City, Ma Le and the others put the boxes of high-purity chloroform into the space, brought some ropes, and immediately set off towards the center of the island.
On the way, Ma Le couldn't help but ask Xie Wen, "What does that big grimace mean?" After Xie Wen saw the strange sign, he was obviously worried, and Ma Le's nerves felt that something was wrong, so he was very curious about the grimace sign.
Xie Wen sighed, turned his head to look at Ma Le, his eyes were solemn and complex, and then slowly spit out a sentence: "Specific, I don't know ...... specifically."
This answer flashed Ma Le's heel: "Damn, I don't know if you're afraid of hair!" ā
"I don't understand what the sign means, but I've seen it appear." Xie Wen shook his head, and then began to slowly recount the experience: "At that time, I had just entered the ordinary level, and I happened to catch up with a multi-city battle mission, and there were adventurers from four city-states involved in the world!" And in that mission, there were also senior-level participants, although they were different from our ordinary level tasks, but in the world with difficult adventurers, we were still quite apprehensive......"
Snowy Owl nodded in understanding, there also happened to be an ordinary level intervention in the Terminator world, and at that time, an entry-level like her had no choice. If it weren't for the Persian cat's tricks to provoke a death match between the two sides, I'm afraid that her snow owl would also die in the Terminator world.
On the contrary, it was Ma Le, although he had a common experience with the snow owl, but his feelings were not so deep, and he appreciated the strength of the enemy, his own side...... Strength does not dare to compliment.
"At that time, we didn't act together with the senior adventurers, they did their confrontation missions, we kept our main line, and the well water did not interfere with the river water. And to be honest, at that time, the senior level of our Miracle City was quite a well-known and powerful team, plus the only super-large city-state among the four cities in Miracle City, so we were very confident in ourselves and the strength of our own senior! ā
"But just when we thought the world would be easy, this sign appeared!" Speaking of this, Xie Wen's affection seemed to be slightly excited, and his tone seemed a little hurried: "The logo of that time is slightly different from this one, but it is all hit in the air with a huge searchlight. After seeing this sign, one of our regular-level companions suddenly received a message from a senior-level senior. The senior and this ordinary level have known each other for a long time, and when the two met when they entered the world, the senior was very happy, and even promised that when the intercity confrontation was completed, he would come over to help us complete the main line. But now, the senior sent a message, telling us to stay away from that sign as much as possible, even if we want to give up the main line, things are no longer something that ordinary people like us can participate in! ā
"What the hell is going on?" Hearing this, Ma Le was also whetted: "You did it, or?" ā
Xie Wen shook his head: "At that time, I was a little 'young' frivolous, I had just walked out of the entry-level level, I hadn't experienced any difficult tasks, I thought my strength was good, I even mentioned yƬ to join in the fun, and most of the other ordinary levels also had this intention, after all, our seniors were extraordinary, and they shouldn't be unable to control the scene." As for their reminders, we only understood that they were afraid that the battle would affect us, and some people were quite angry about it at that time, thinking that they were being looked down upon, and even said that they had to go! ā
"So...... And you went? The snow owl asked tentatively, and seeing Xie Wen nodding, she asked again, "What do you see?" ā
Xie Wen chuckled: "What do you see?" Where do I have the guts to see it? Before we arrived at the location of the incident, our Miracle Badge received reminders one after another that the eight ordinary level of our Miracle City had been slaughtered within two minutes! Not only us, but two other city-states also suffered one after another, both of which were overwhelmingly defeated by the last city-state, and the information shows that the murderer who did this is the same person! ā
"How is this possible?" The snowy owl exclaimed, "Could it be some kind of ritual that summons something terrible?" ā
Xie Wen shook his head: "I don't know, when we received these messages, we immediately decided to stay away from there, but it was already a little late, and the adventurers of the last city-state seemed to have noticed our existence and actually chased after us. A few of us ordinary level naturally did not dare to confront those ferocious senior ranks, so we immediately chose to flee separately, taking advantage of the complex terrain and using all the means we could think of to avoid the enemy. ā
"As I fled alone, I felt a great deal of fear and pressure, and the news of my companions being killed kept coming from the miracle badge, and I was afraid that I would be next. Finally, the badge showed that even me, there were only two ordinary levels left on the side of Miracle City, and at this time, I was in a hurry, broke the conditions for the completion of a main quest, and the main line was declared a failure, and then immediately chose to return, and the two of us escaped......"
After listening to Xie Wen's story, Ma Le and Snow Owl couldn't help but sigh. The snowy owl was even more worried and asked, "If this symbol is so dangerous, why do we want to get closer?" ā
Xie Wen replied: "No matter what this symbol symbolizes, the last incident was caused by a senior adventurer after all, and the fact that our predecessors in Miracle City chose to take the initiative to participate in it shows that there is no possibility of victory." And this time, all the players in this competition world are ordinary level, and our strength is even ahead of the other party, even if this symbol is behind the killer feature of Dark City, we will not be without the power to fight. This ring match is a game of death and death, and no matter what the other side does, we will stop it at any cost, so we have to go. By the way, I also just want to see the truth behind this symbol! ā
As they spoke, the three of them had come to the place where the symbol appeared. It was almost dawn, but the sky was already dark, and it was clearly visible, and the huge grimace in the night sky was projected by a little divergence on a high ground, and the conical pillar of light pointed downward, as if piercing a huge nail into the top of the mountain, which was particularly eye-catching.
The three of them came to the light-emitting spot, and found that it was actually a small device, only the size of a palm, with a black display inlaid on it, which was detachable, and it was supposed to be some kind of timed trigger on the rear installation. They fiddled with it a few times, turned off the small machine, and looked at it over and over for a long time, but they didn't find anything suspicious.
is the so-called fan of the authorities, Ma Le and the three of them are confused, but the audience watching the big screen in the ring space can see that this small instrument is not what the tyrannosaurus placed on the ground when it left? I remember that a three-hour countdown was set at the beginning, could it be that the dangerous symbol in Xie Wen's mouth was actually issued by the Tyrannosaurus?
The three of them studied for a long time, but they didn't come up with a reason, so they had to put away this little thing first. As for the danger Xie Wen mentioned, this place is on high ground, and the surrounding area is empty, even if the enemy engages in an ambush and a sneak attack, I am afraid that there will be no chance. In order to deal with the enemies that might be hidden, Xie Wen even scattered a large handful of development dust, but he didn't even see a single hair. Now, even he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, could it be that the grimace last time and the tragic battle were not necessarily related?
Either way, the place has just launched such a visible sign in the night sky, which is likely to attract dangerous creatures nearby, and the guys in Dark City don't know when they will appear. The three of them put away their instruments and planned to leave the top of the mountain. And at this moment, the snow owl suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange electric light in the insect nest area below.
"Look there, is there something?" The snow owl reminded, and Xie Wen and Ma Le also looked at the hive area below, with the amazing eyesight of the adventurer and the effect of the telescope, the three of them finally saw clearly that in the depths of the hive area, there were four figures sneakily approaching the center. Although I can't see the face clearly, I think it must be the guys from the Dark City!
"How is this possible?" The three of them shouted in unison, there is a worm nest, it is a dangerous place on Skull Island now, it is well guarded, and monsters are rampant, how can they sneak in so easily?
"No, look there!" The snowy owl was the first to notice the problem, raised his hand and pointed to the top of a giant nest, and the three of them looked together, only to see that in the opening at the top of the giant nest, there was a globular creature lurking, which seemed to be dormant, completely inactive, just rising and falling with the pulse of the hive. This is not only the case, but all the hives.
"It's the Demon of True Sight!" Xie Wen was surprised: "But why are these Eye Demons not active?" Could it be that the guys in Dark City are the hives that sneaked into at this opportunity? ā
As he spoke, the group of insect hives below seemed to have received some stimulus, and suddenly twitched violently, and with the naked eye, it seemed that something was trying to teleport from the bottom of the insect hive, and those True Vision Demons who were dormant at the top also began to spin, and each turn, they would bring up a few drops of milky white mucus. Presumably, this slime is supposed to be a breeding ground for the Eye Demons to sleep.
The throbbing became more and more intense, and the eye demon spun faster and faster, and finally, with a pop, as if spitting out a jujube core, these bulbous insect monsters were spewed out by the insect nest. After a few rounds in mid-air, the balls of flesh broke open their huge eyes and slowly floated and circled as they looked around, resuming their patrols.
......Suddenly, one of the Eye Demon apparently spotted the people in the Dark City, and immediately let out a series of strange and harsh sounds, and the nearby insect monsters heard it, and they all became agitated, gathering in the direction indicated by the Eye Demon. Immediately afterward, the sound of fighting came from the gathering point, and various skills and magic emerged one after another, accompanied by brilliant lights and shadows, jumping on the skull island before dawn.
