Chapter 161: A Terrible Guess
"What's the matter?" Roy asked.
Ah Fu didn't speak, just wiped her fingers on a silver-white space ring on her right hand, took out a book, and handed it to Roy.
"This is the material I bought in the Mission Hall about the Lulian Abyss, it's very detailed," said Aph, turning the book to a certain page in the middle, "Look at this. ”
A faint scent entered Roy's nose. Because leaning over, Afu's arm was next to Roy's hand, and her face was blown up, almost under her nose.
Roy's heart fluttered slightly, and his body stiffened for a while, as if he was afraid of accidentally touching Afu.
However, Roy quickly settled down and focused his attention on the book. didn't notice that at the moment when he lost his mind, the corners of Afu's mouth hooked a small smug arc.
Reading the page that Ave had turned carefully, Roy saw a passage about the Lulian Abyss.
It has been decades since the entrance to the Lulian Abyss was discovered. There is an endless stream of explorers. The main route maps of the first and second floors were drawn one after the other, and the rest of the third floor was also progressing smoothly.
However, the Abyssal Labyrinth has become a forbidden area that can never be removed from the fog because of its strange and complex terrain. The progress of the probe 10 ∧ is even lower than the more dangerous fourth layer.
After paying a lot of casualties and learning about the horrors of the Abyss Labyrinth, many mercenaries gave up exploring the Dark Basin. Unwilling to gnaw on this difficult bone.
However, there are also people who have developed a strong interest in the Abyss Labyrinth because of this. One of them, a high-ranking mercenary named Frank, explored the abyssal labyrinth dozens of times in order to attack the super mercenary.
That was almost twenty years ago.
This Frank is a master of mapping, and the dense underground caverns are not a problem for him. Therefore, from the very beginning he focused all his attention on the Dark Basin.
In his view, the Dark Basin is the core of the deep labyrinth. It is also the biggest obstacle for people to explore the abyss. If you can't conquer here, you can't conquer the abyss labyrinth!
Frank begins his quest for the Dark Basin.
Drawing a map is a very hard job, and in the mercenary world, it is figuratively called a pioneer. The topography, the direction of rivers and mountains, where is the gathering place of demons. Wherever there are hidden natural traps, it is up to the explorer to find out and mark them out.
Frank is also a ruthless man. In just half a year, he went down to the abyss dozens of times, and with a pair of feet and a sword, he actually drew a map ten kilometers deep into the dark basin!
This has aroused great attention from the Mission Hall. At that time, after Frank reported to the mission hall of Muni City, a super mercenary was sent to the Dark Basin to verify it in person.
If this is verified, according to Frank's points, there will be no doubt about the promotion of super mercenary.
But......
Roy found it in the record. I don't know what's going on, but after the super mercenary who went to verify came back, the evaluation he gave turned out to be a fraudulent reprimand, and he walked away with a black face.
This made Frank and several of his friends, who were waiting in the mission hall to celebrate, completely confused.
And what's worse is that this directly leads Frank, who feels deeply hummed, to explore the abyss again the next day. And this time, he met with an accident and never came out alive.
In the midst of decades of information on the exploration of the abyss. Frank's existence is just a splash in the sea, insignificant. Plus the scope of this matter is very small. If it weren't for the mission hall, no one would even know.
And at this moment, when Roy saw the account, he couldn't help but connect Frank's experience with the strange scene he saw.
"You mean," Roy said to Aph, "that Frank has met with this kind of thing, too?"
Afu nodded. said: "Since he can impact the super mercenary, he is naturally not a weak person, nor is he the kind of unreliable person." Did he spend so much time just weaving a lie that was destined to be exposed?"
As she spoke, she nodded affirmatively and said, "So when you asked me if I had heard of a similar legend." That's when I think about it. I think that when that super mercenary came to the Dark Basin to check, he must have seen a completely different place than when Frank explored. ”
Roy nodded.
However, another suspicion has emerged. Why did Frank explore for so long and enter the Dark Basin dozens of times, without encountering any changes, but when it was submitted for verification, such an incident happened?
If there had been a change, Frank would not have been unaware.
Roy buried his head and studied the material intently. However, from this brief account, he did not see anything wrong.
Roy was not reconciled and flipped through other accounts of the Abyss, especially focusing on the period when Frank explored the Abyss. The hard work paid off, and after a full prayer hour, he finally saw the clues from some clues.
Back then, Frank originally wanted to explore the entire dark abyss. Moreover, for this reason, he also contacted a group of friends to prepare for the later joint exploration.
And the reason why he submitted it to the Mission Hall when he explored ten kilometers was because as long as the Mission Hall confirmed, his points would be enough to promote to Super Mercenary. Second, it was also because he encountered a situation that was not controllable by man.
The abyss is closed!
It was because of the closure of the Abyss that Frank stopped his exploration and used this free time to prepare for the next phase of his exploration and submit it for verification.
And after the abyss was reopened, what happened later became a tragedy.
This discovery made Roy's heart sink.
Even if he didn't know anything about the abyss, he knew what it meant for the abyss to be closed.
That means an overwhelming abyssal storm, and it means that people below the second layer of the abyss have almost no hope of survival, let alone in this dark basin where they can't even figure out the direction!
Roy turned his head to look at the hole.
The clouds were still in the air, surging into the distance. There was no sign of pouring into the cave.
But Roy knew that the cloudy storm wouldn't be so mild. It will sweep a qiē and swarm to any corner in a violent wind.
When the time comes, such a cave will not only not be a haven for everyone, but will become a cemetery for death!
And. Combined with the clouds of the storm, it will become extremely aggressive. In the storm, even if it stood still and the battle ring was fully open, an ordinary Fire Source Pill would not be able to support it for twenty minutes.
And if you run, I'm afraid you won't be able to last even three minutes.
Equally. The effect of the Bright Detoxification Pill that you have refined yourself will also drop significantly.
Seeing that Roy's face was wrong, Afu asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Hearing Roy's speculation, the blood on Afu's face suddenly faded cleanly.
"So what do we do?" Afu couldn't help but grab Roy, her voice trembling a little.
Roy looked at Aph.
If those innocent eyes and weak appearance are just a disguise for this decisive and ruthless woman in her heart, then Roy knows that she is really afraid of it now.
For any woman. Screaming and festering in the clouds is the most difficult way for them to accept death. The more beautiful a woman is, the more scared she is.
"I was thinking," Roy smiled and reassured, "don't worry. That's just my guess. ”
After comforting Afu, Roy secretly said in his heart, "No. Keep staying here and just sit back and wait. Once you can't get out of here before the cloudy storm arrives. I'm afraid everyone will have to die!"
Roy himself wasn't afraid.
First of all, there were ten bottles and hundreds of Bright Detoxification Pills he had refined. Six were given to Ziggy and others, and there were also ninety-four.
If calculated according to the calculation of a pill that lasted five or six prayer hours in a cloudy storm, more than ninety antidote pills were enough for him to last for twenty days.
And more importantly, as a last resort. Roy was even able to leave directly through the spatial passage of the guò ruling. No matter how fierce the cloud storm was, it didn't pose any threat to him.
However, if he wants to watch his companions die alongside him, he can't do it.
But how can we get everyone out?
To know. In the clouds, no life can survive. Even the demons who live here can't stand it, let alone ordinary humans. Once they lose the protection of the medicine and the battle ring, they will turn into a pile of white bones like the poor magician of the Hoover team.
Thinking of the remains of the magician, suddenly, a spiritual light flashed through Roy's mind.
He closed the book in his hand, stooped over to Rondello's side, and quietly gestured to him and the captains to lead them into the corner.
"Leo, what are you ......?" Roundelo asked curiously, seeing Roy's mysterious appearance.
Under the gaze of everyone, Roy repeated his guess.
For fear of causing unnecessary panic, Roy's voice was low. However, as soon as his words fell, Marjorie and Wood's faces changed dramatically, and they exclaimed, "Are you serious?"
The mercenaries looked sideways.
Finally, the two reacted quickly, and quickly adjusted their feelings to cover up the past. Wood lowered his voice and said with a pale face: "How sure are you of this guess?"
Roy handed him the book in his hand. In the book, he has outlined and marked all the clues he has found.
Several captains gathered together and nervously flipped through them, and the more they flipped through them, the more ugly everyone's faces became. Finally, Wood's hand holding the book trembled slightly.
This news, like a sharp bayonet, stabbed them directly in the heart!
I thought that the current situation was bad enough, but I didn't expect that more terrible was yet to come. If Roy's guess is right, then one of the people present counts as one, and all of them are gone!
The thought of dozens of people dying here made them feel cold!
Although they really wanted to find a reason to refute Roy, they knew in their hearts that they couldn't find it, and even if they did, they would just lie to themselves.
"Unexpectedly," Wood laughed, "this is where my Wood is buried." ”
The other captains were also gloomy.
At this moment, Roy smiled and said, "It's not that bad. ”...... (To be continued......)
