Chapter 155: Exploration

Like the rest of the mercenary squad, as soon as the Ice Star squad entered the stone forest, they were affected by this strange environment. [Latest Chapter Interview wรจn: {Dagger Qi ะซ}]

Roy is no exception.

He found that not only had his field of vision narrowed a lot, but also the range of his perception had narrowed a lot. There seems to be a kind of power, like spider silk, wrapped around his body one by one.

If it had been before, Roy would have had a lot of discomfort, but now, he found that he was not greatly affected.

This is thanks to the demonic power that he absorbs.

This unique power that belongs to the abyss makes him have an inexplicable sense of familiarity and integration with the abyss. Just as a bird flies in the sky and a fish swims in the water, it is completely a natural talent and instinct.

And with the operation of the Truth Decision, the source power containing the power of the demon traveled around Zhoutian, and soon, even some of the slight influences when he had just entered the stone forest were cleared.

Of course, no one knows about the changes in Roy's body. Seeing Roy walking in front alone, Franco asked, "Leo, do you need my help?"

"No," Roy waved his hand, "you go slowly, I'll go ahead first." โ€

"Be careful. Afu said.

Roy nodded, and his figure scurried out like a cheetah, only to shake for a few moments, and then disappeared into the dark stone forest.

"Let's go," Rondello drew his sword, "let's go slower and wait for Leo's first round of probing to be over." โ€

"Damn, what the hell is this place?" Racios covered his forehead, only to feel dizzy no matter which way he looked, "Franco, how are you?"

Franco frowned, danced with two knives in his hands, carefully observed the surroundings and said, "We scouts have their own ways of distinguishing directions, and your sense of direction is much better." However, the environment here is too complicated, so it's better to be careful. โ€

Everyone nodded. I feel the same way.

As mercenaries, everyone understands the importance of the environment and the topography. When fighting in an unfavorable environment, the danger index will increase exponentially. Even if it was just encountering a fifth-level demon, it would be completely different here than anywhere else.

"Roy is okay, right?" said Lake, a little worried.

"It should be fine. "I look at his movements, and they don't seem to be affected at all." It's weird. โ€

As the crowd spoke, Roy had already advanced fifty meters.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was seeing, he quickly opened the field. Released Xiaobai.

In a place like the Abyss, Xiaobai is the top scout.

The two of them are bright and dark, and the area of exploration is wider, and the scope of early warning is also larger. Especially for some places that Roy can't decide, you can use your clone to investigate first. The doppelganger is the incarnation of the realm, and even if it collapses for a while, as long as it takes a little time, it can be restored.

The scout's exploration range is generally the left front and right front areas of the team's forward path. Figuratively speaking, it is like the two large pincers of a lobster.

Roy was the first to probe to the right of the team's direction. in this direction. He found more than a dozen fifth-level demons. It has eight Fire Rock Demons, three Shadow Demons, and one Iron Claw Demon. At the same time, a huge devil tree was discovered.

The devil's tree grew on a floating rock with a diameter of 20 meters, and its sinuous roots wrapped most of the rock, and hundreds of vines hung down from the canopy of the giant umbrella, fluttering in the wind, looking like a black jellyfish.

Devil's trees are not uncommon. In the first and second layers of the abyss, Roy has seen a lot. However, such a huge devil tree. It was the first time he had seen it.

Such a guy, Roy is naturally reluctant to touch. Luckily, the tree's survival did not completely cut off the team's path. Just go around one or two hundred meters. It can be passed from the edge of its control range.

Relying on the doppelganger, Roy quickly figured out the location of the demon and the surrounding environment. After making a secret note in his heart, he silently dived to the left.

The area on the left overlaps with the scouting area of the other mercenary teams. No sooner had he rounded a stone pillar covered in black vines than Roy saw Ziggy scouting cautiously. About fifty meters away from him was another scout named Black Feather.

Roy observed.

I have to say. Both of these are seasoned elites who are good at judging from clues. Where there is no danger, they are fast, and where there is danger, they immediately slow down and investigate carefully.

Their movements were swift, light, and methodical, like two shadows floating in the forest. Not only were the few abyssal demons nearby undisturbed by them, but even some of the hidden abyssal plants in the place where they passed were all quietly staying in place.

However, it is clear that these two people have also been affected by the strange environment of the stone forest.

Roy found that with each leg of his walk, they would stop to adjust their already confused sense of direction, and use some hunter's small tricks to re-orient themselves.

However, this made their reconnaissance speed much slower than usual, and the dark environment and chaotic sense of direction made them unconsciously ignore many places.

If a reconnaissance area were divided into ten districts equally, then Ziggy and Black Feather would ignore at least three of them.

Avoiding Ziggy and Black Feather, Roy and White combed the area carefully.

He found that it would be a good idea for the team to pass through the area if they only followed the area that Ziggy and Blackfeather were exploring. Whether it is the distance traveled or the dangers that need to be dealt with along the way, there is less area that I have explored before.

However, if you add what they have overlooked, it is not so optimistic.

In the entire area, there are at least seventy Abyss Demons. Moreover, their distribution is quite dense. As soon as a part of it is alarmed, the entire area will turn into a series of falling dominoes. Other demons will swarm.

Of course, this is not a danger for the five mercenary squads, at most a little trouble.

The investigation ended quickly.

Because he was not affected by the environment and with the help of the clones, Roy spent less than a third of the time exploring the area. By the time the two had just finished exploring the area, Roy had already returned to where the team was.

"Go this way. โ€

Roy gestured to everyone from afar, then turned around and led the way.

............

"Look, the Ice Star squad moves, and they're going that way. One of the mages of the Raphael mercenary group looked at the Ice Star squad and said.

"So fast?" everyone's eyes widened.

Although the Ice Star team entered the stone forest a minute or two early. However, the two sides sent out scouts, almost synchronously.

And for a scout round of investigation, you need to complete the left and right detection areas.

Now Ziggy and Black Feather have just finished exploring the reconnaissance area on the right. I was just about to explore the area on the left, but the rookie scout had already been completed.

One person versus two people, twice as fast?!

How is this possible!

For a moment, everyone's eyes looking at Roy were full of disdain. Disgust and anger.

In their opinion, no one was able to complete the reconnaissance in such a short time. This also means that this kid is simply perfunctory. And his laziness and stupidity are not only irresponsible to himself, but also to other companions around him.

Thinking about it at this moment, everyone only has happiness and fear in their hearts!

Thankfully, Hoover drove him away. Otherwise......

"Bastard!" said Olivia angrily, "Is Roundelo drugged to trust such a piece of garbage without reservation, to the point of stupidity." Don't he know that he's committing a crime by doing so!"

"Go back this time. I'm going to have to report it to Mission Hall. Wood gritted his teeth and said, "This kind of person must be removed! โ€

"Report?" Hoover laughed, "Mr. Wood, do you think they could have escaped from the Dark Basin?"

Hoover smiled merrily.

Although when he accused Rondello just now, he was righteous and strict, and he looked like he was thinking about everyone, but in fact, his ultimate goal was to drive the Ice Star team away.

He knows this. Others are clear too. Therefore, even Olivia agreed to let the Ice Star team leave, but never gave him a good face from the beginning.

However, a qiฤ“ happened in front of my eyes. But it proved Hoover's wisdom.

When the admiring eyes of the mercenaries around him gathered around him like the lights of the stage, Hoover couldn't help but feel proud.

"No, I'm going to stop them!" Olivia said, preparing to walk towards the Ice Star team.

But at this time. Jacob let out a sudden exclamation.

"What does that kid want to do?"

Everyone raised their eyes and saw the Ice Star Squad moving forward in a regular shuttle formation. And in front of them, Leo ran at high speed like a demon leopard.

The topography of the Stone Forest is complex. Even the elves and orcs who are the best at running in the mountains and jungles have to be cautious when traveling in such a place, not to mention the chaotic sense of direction and dark environment of the dark basin, which can easily make people lose themselves unconsciously.

But at this moment, Roy seemed to have no idea how dangerous it was, and he ran around for a while.

Almost at the same time as everyone's hearts tightened.

"Boom!"

With a demonic roar, a fire rock demon opened its thighs and rushed out from behind a nearby stone pillar, lunging towards Roy.

The appearance of the demon did not put an end to Roy's dangerous moves. Instead, as if frightened, he shifted his body and ran to the other side, trying to shake off the demon.

"Boom!"

There was another roar, and the other Fire Rock Demon in the Stone Forest was also triggered. Like a heavy chariot, it slammed through the grass and pounced on Roy from the side.

"Damn it!"

"Stop!

The mercenaries were shocked and angry, and they cursed. This stone forest is strange and dangerous, and no one knows what terrifying things are hidden in it. This kid is running around like this, if he provokes something, not only will the Ice Star team suffer, but even on his own side, there may be a disaster of pond fish.

Their shouting didn't stop Roy, though.

Seeing the second demon pounce, Roy changed direction again and fled quickly. However, when he went around a stone pillar, in the grass not far away, another demon was alarmed by him, roared out, and joined the pursuit.

This time, Roy's escape trajectory was even more chaotic, rushing left and right, running and bumping, and in an instant, three or four more abyssal demons appeared.

A group of demons chased after him, fierce and vicious, and from a distance, it looked like a herd of lions hunting a small antelope. As long as Roy is the slightest bit worse, he will be torn to pieces by this group of demons. The scene looks like it's thrilling to the extreme!

"Look, what do I say," Hoover said, holding his arms and sneering, "this kind of person is Londero's most trusted scout." Just now, he was ready to put our lives in the hands of such people. Now everyone look, look at this idiot ......"

Before Hoover could finish his words, suddenly, a crowd of exclamations rang out, drowning out his voice.

"Look!"

"This kid is so fast!"

I saw Roy, who was running, suddenly soared into the air, stretched out his feet and kicked on a stone pillar, which was already a refraction and shot backwards. After passing over a few demons that were encircled, he rolled over and landed, and a few wrong steps had already passed between the three demons.

From a distance, it looks like a breeze has passed through a wall!

"Pretty!" ...... (To be continued.) )xh118I752
