Chapter XXIV Adoption

Seeing that the old man was about to walk to the place where the blue grass was blooming, but the small dangerous line under his feet did not break again, the bearded ninja finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was not worried about the safety of the old man, but worried about the increased difficulty of the task.

The arrival of Mo Lun is not useless, the dangerous line can only pass one person at a time, and the place where the blue grass grows can only enter one person at a time, there are many people, and the poisonous insects inside are easy to go crazy and will attack everyone who enters. The most dangerous thing is that at a high altitude where the blue light does not shine, a group of birds and beasts are hovering all the time. These birds have the sharpest eyes, and when they are alone, they rarely pay attention to steroid powder, but when there are too many of them, they attract other birds with keen senses, and they will be in big trouble.

The bearded middle-aged man, the girl and the old man also took on other collection tasks because of Mo Lun this time, and this time the old man's collection was just a demonstration, collecting a qualified lamp blue grass for Mo Lun. After that, they had to go to another area, where Morun couldn't go, so they had to go.

Mo Lun watched the old man disappear into the glow of the blue grass, and his eyes focused on the danger line.

He had just asked the two people who stayed in place, but they didn't bother to explain it at all, or they didn't know it like him. Morun felt that this dangerous line was not naturally generated, but artificial, and that it was a safety line specially set up by ninjas to make it easier for others to pass through.

Nothing else but this line works, like

The clearing beyond the danger line was pitch black, with occasional greenish smoke rising, and the distant glow was dense but could not illuminate the ground at the edge. But from the old man's performance that he did not dare to leave the danger line even if he was stuck to the soles of his shoes by molten insects, he knew that those black ground were dangerous, and the degree of danger was greater than that of molten insects.

Molten insects are also dangerous, and the old man, as a ninja, has experience in dealing with them. But he wasn't a ninja, and once he was glued to these molten insects, he couldn't deal with it, let alone make a handprint and be fine.

It seems that the difficulty in collecting the blue grass lies in how to pass the danger line safely.

Mo Lun glanced at the two of them who were already chatting, and thought to himself that if the danger line would only break a few times, not too often, then this level would not be too difficult for him. Also, this task was originally a simple task that Lin screened out and could be handed over to ordinary people to do, and there was naturally no such desperate situation as nine deaths and one life.

Settle down, Moren looked forward to it.

After waiting for half an hour, I didn't see the old man come out.

Mo Lun once again focused his attention on the danger line, and with the data just collected by the chip, he analyzed the reason why the danger line would be disconnected. When the danger line was disconnected for the first time, the bearded ninja said a sentence: "What's the matter, the last time I walked halfway through, there was a 'molten worm' appeared, could it be that the magma in the ground is about to erupt?" This sentence gave Mo Lun some information, the molten worm came from the ground, and it seemed that it could only crawl out at the moment when the danger line was disconnected, and there was magma underground, so there must be a crater nearby. The characteristics of molten insects can basically be guessed, and they are scorrosive, just like some acid insects that explode on their own.

Just looking at the old man's cautious expression before, it is not difficult to find that the molten insect also has a great threat to the ninja. If he hadn't thought of a way for the time being, he would definitely try to collect these melted worms to increase his life-saving ability. Lin only gave five detonation charms, this thing must be familiar to ninjas, so naturally there are many ways to guard against it. But the molten worm was different, he had never seen this kind of thing, it seemed to exist only in places where magma flowed, and the number must be scarce.

If you grab a few molten worms and put them in a bottle, they will suddenly throw them at the enemy

Just think about it, and you know it's extraordinary. Moren enjoys making gadgets, much of which comes from previous worlds, including small improvised packages of powder from the Dark Forest

All this is just imagination, and the characteristics of the molten worm have only been seen once, and it is impossible to get accurate results without studying it personally.

As a result, Moren soon focused on the fracture of the dangerous line.

For more than half an hour, he had been paying attention to this dangerous line, since the old man entered the blue grass of the lamp, the dangerous line had not been broken, it was very quiet, and if he did not pay close attention, he could not even find the existence of the dangerous line from the edge of a dark basin.

Someone walks up to it, and the dangerous line will break.

Below the danger line, there are a large number of melt worms, and as long as the danger line is broken, the melt worms will climb out along the gap.

Throughout the earth, there is a flow of magma, and there are volcanoes nearby.

At this moment, Moren wanted to wander around, he wanted to find out where the volcano was. Of course, the pock-faced girl and the bearded ninja won't allow it, his task is to collect the lamp blue grass, and when the old man returns, this collection task will be handed over to him.

With an impetuous heart, Morun waited for the old man.

So, after an hour had passed, Morun finally saw the old man's funny blue clothes. The old man clutched a thumb-thick lamp blue grass that emitted a faint blue light. This grass is slightly different from the lantern blue grass with the thickness of bamboo poles around it, in addition to the difference in size, even the blue light emitted by it seems to be slightly different.

The old man stepped on the danger line again, far away, but Mo Lun had the picture of Rising scanning, so he could see it clearly.

Mo Luen's attention was not on the lamp blue grass, but on the danger line at the old man's feet.

Suddenly, the danger thread broke open in the heel of the old man.

One by one, the blue-purple molten worms quickly crawled out, and they tried to stick to the old man, but the old man was prepared and broke away at once. The molten insects had no choice, they dissolved into the black ground on both sides and disappeared without a trace, only the fiercest one fell on the danger line, and the scum turned into a wisp of light smoke.

This was the case that Morun had seen, and when it adhered to the old man's shoes, it was the same, melting into light smoke.

The old man continued walking, very carefully.

After intermittently breaking the dangerous line several times, the old man finally returned.

He exhaled, his face was expressionless, and he said in a very indifferent tone: "Every time I go back and forth, I feel like I have walked through the ghost gate." ”

Before Mo Lun could speak, the old man picked up the lamp blue grass, pointed to the toothpick-like germ inside the rhizome and said, "The light emitted by this thing is much different from those, have you noticed it? And those big germs have grown, and the light is a little stronger. ”

"Let me tell you, the most difficult part of collecting the blue grass is to distinguish this soft light from the countless almost identical grasses, which are strong and easy to recognize, but this soft"

The pock-faced girl leaned over and said with a smile: "I don't think so, I think ah~~ For this guy, the most dangerous thing is the danger line, maybe just step on it, and be burned to death by those insects." ”

The old man was silent, "Then you better pray that he can get through the danger safely, otherwise our task will only be more difficult." Have you forgotten the lesson from last time? There is almost no Dro in him, and the big guys are not interested in him. ”

Before the old man finished speaking, the girl's face became gloomy, and the pockmarks on her face trembled, showing the fluctuations in her heart. Last time, she was almost caught by the ground worm, and that's not all, because the Zhuo Luo in her body was the most powerful of the three, and it actually attracted an incomparably rare green eagle, this beast didn't dare to come down, but it interfered with her in the sky, she panicked, and didn't notice that the danger line under her feet was broken, and her left foot was glued by several molten insects, if she hadn't used the stand-in technique when she was in danger, I'm afraid that foot would have been useless.

For this reason, she lost the only stand-in doll she had, and she has not yet made it back.

This time, she took on other collection tasks, just to take the opportunity to collect enough points to exchange materials for making stand-in dolls, and collecting points for the blue grass of the lamp, which was too little for her.

"This time the god Kun is here, if that beast dares to appear, see if I don't kill it. ”

After Rising recorded the characteristics of the Lamp Blue Grass, he went down the slope, and the Lamp Bluegrass collected by the old man was taken back by him, it took him more than an hour to find this thing, and one plant can get 2 battle merit points, so he would not let Mo Lun bring it over.

What if I die and lose it on the way?

The old man was the best talker of the three, but he still didn't trust Morun, not at all.

Their four-person collection team has to collect at least ten lantern blue grasses to go back, the number is not enough, not to mention the failure of the mission, and punishment is waiting for it.

Under the watchful eyes of the three of them, the teenager took action.

When Morun stepped on the danger line, his heart was lifted and his mind was extremely concentrated.

After only two steps, the danger line under his feet suddenly broke off, and Mo Lun hurriedly jumped forward, just dodging the blue and purple molten insects that rushed out. He stopped steadily on the danger line, and before he had time to rejoice, he saw that the danger line he stepped on when he landed broke again.

"This idiot. The pock-faced girl frowned and scolded.

The old man shook his head and said lightly: "The danger line breaks with the movement of people, and the greater the movement, the more frequent it is disconnected." I didn't tell him in advance, hey!"

The bearded ninja grinned and sneered, not squeaking. But the pock-faced girl was full of ridicule, staring at the old man and sneering: "You will tell him?

"I think this kid is good, I think he'll get through it safely. The old man didn't refute, his face was still expressionless.

A few people didn't speak again, and for a while the slope seemed very quiet.

Narrowly dodging the second rift, Morun already knew the point of the danger line, and began to imitate the old man, walking lightly but slowly.

The bearded ninja looked at it with a flash of light, and said in a deep voice: "This kid has practiced physical arts, and his foundation is very solid!"

"Of course, when I was on the road in the morning, I found out that if I didn't have any ability, daring to take this task was to find death. The pock-faced girl looked behind her frequently, and Kun Shen was still there.

The old man didn't say anything, and quietly looked at Mo Lun walking on the danger line below.

He discovered a phenomenon that the boy was imitating him, not in his demeanor and form, but in his footwork, which was exactly the same.

"Interesting!"
