Chapter 168: An Unexpected Convergence

Cui Jiekai didn't know how long he had beaten Zhao Guangguang, and he didn't stop until the person under him couldn't see the human appearance.

The corners of the mouth are cracked, the corners of the eyes are cracked, the bridge of the nose is deformed, the face is full of ruptured wounds and blood, a face is completely unrecognizable, it is estimated that Zhao Guangguang himself can't recognize himself now; the pain on his face keeps coming, Zhao Guangguang doesn't dare to touch his face with his hands, at this time, any touch is a secondary injury to the wound, and nothing can be exchanged except pain.

Xue Xinling looked at Liu Xinyu, who couldn't cry anymore, and a thousand words turned into a sigh, with her position, she was not qualified to comfort Liu Xinyu.

She flew to Chen Mo's side—they didn't take off the flying disc as a precaution—and asked with some hesitation, "That, what about the person with you?"

She wanted to ask this question from just now, why didn't Luo Miao, who was supposed to lure away the cunning demon with Chen Mo, appear with him, and why did the cunning demon appear at the exit gate?

"It should still be attracting the attention of that cunning demon......" Seeing that Xue Xinling was obviously still puzzled, Chen Mo explained to her clearly: "It was my junior brother who asked me to rush over - the person you said is my junior brother - I don't know how he reasoned, he guessed that there might be a second cunning demon, so he asked me to take the flying disk and quickly join you."

If it weren't for him asking me to hurry to you with a flying disk, the chances of you being able to escape from that cunning demon without the flying disc are almost slim, but I didn't expect that there really would be a second cunning demon. ”

"The second cunning demon?" Xue Xinling was stunned, she didn't expect this to be the case, and then there was worry on her face, "So he's still mediating with another cunning demon?"

Chen Mo nodded, he was also worried about Luo Miao's situation, after all, he was only a second-order mage, he was alone in the face of a cunning demon, even if he had a flying disk, he couldn't be regarded as relying on it.

He ...... It's going to be okay, right?" Xue Xinling asked hesitantly, she didn't want to see anyone have an accident anymore.

"I don't know. Chen Mo didn't know this.

"Don't you have to go to him? He's ......."

"Bringing a large number of people to him will only make us fall into the situation of being chased by the cunning demon again, my junior brother is probably still followed by a cunning demon behind him, I can't leave to maintain this layer of water film that isolates the smell for you, and you can't leave, the smell may attract another cunning demon, if we act, we can only act together." Chen Mo shook his head at Xue Xinling's thoughts, "And more importantly, I don't know where his location is now, it's more realistic to think about how to ask for help outside than to look for it randomly."

It's not that I'm not worried about my junior brother, but when the weaker side is more numerous, the chaos will increase, so what if a few of us converge? We don't even have the ability to hurt the cunning demons, we will only make ourselves more dangerous in vain.

For the nonce...... Let's take this as a reason for peace of mind. ”

Xue Xinling showed a complicated gaze: "...... Well, I see. ”

"Call the three of them, let's figure out how to call for help outside, and a few of us may come up with an idea together. But when he saw the appearance of the three of them, he sighed, and he couldn't hope too much.

"Phew...... Wow......"

"Wait, there's movement!" Some small voices caught Chen Mo's attention, and the third-order mage's sense of hearing became even keen.

As soon as Chen Mo reminded her, Xue Xinling, who was listening with her ears up, faintly heard some movements: It seemed to be coming from the direction above.

She and Chen Mo looked at the ceiling together, looking around, and finally their eyes stopped at a vent with a blinds frame—where the sound came from.

Chen Mo and Xue Xinling reminded the rest of the people to be wary of the vent, and Cui Jiekai immediately protected Liu Xinyu, who was still choking, as for Zhao Guangguang...... Who cares about him.

Under their vigilant gaze, the blinds of the vent were suddenly pushed open, and an arm emerged from it, followed by a slightly pale human face.

Chen Mo was stunned: "Senior brother?"

Luo Miao's lips turned white and smiled: "Yo, senior brother, and everyone is here." ”

Chen Mo hurriedly stepped forward to help Luo Miao get out of the vent, and soon found the injury behind him: "Are you injured?"

"Careless results. Luo Miao shook her head and smiled, and took out some medical supplies from the space bracelet, "Help me deal with these wounds first." ”

Chen Mo carefully helped Luo Miao take off his blood-covered shirt and observe the injury: Fortunately, although the wound was not shallow, it did not hurt the bones and internal organs.

He first used alcohol to detoxify Luo Miao's wound, and after confirming that there were no fragments in the wound, he smeared hemostatic medicine, in the process, Luo Miao broke out in a cold sweat in pain, and the feeling of alcohol spilling on the wound was really not a joke.

When it came time to wrap the bandage, Luo Miao finally couldn't help but say: "Tap ......"

"Let me do it. Xue Xinling on the side couldn't help but say.

Chen Mo thought about it and felt that the girl's movements must be lighter than his, so he handed over this task to Xue Xinling.

Looking at Luo Miao, whose pain had eased, Chen Mo asked, "Senior brother, how did you get rid of that cunning demon." ”

"Through a vent, the sturdiness of the buildings inside the Scourge Vault is no joke, and the cunning demon can't do anything about it no matter how angry it jumps through the vent, it can knock out a few gaps at most. Luo Miao refreshed when he remembered the angry roar of the cunning demon, "After that, I crawled all the way along the ventilation pipe, and after hearing some sounds, I went in this direction of yours, but I didn't expect it to be really you." ”

Speaking of this, Luo Miao smiled, his luck was still quite good.

"It's such a coincidence...... Chen Mo was also surprised by such a coincidence, but he immediately looked at Luo Miao's vent and had a worried face: "Senior brother, that cunning demon should be able to track your scent, right?"

If that's the case, they'll have to move in advance.

"It's reassuring. Luo Miao pulled out a handful of blue plants from underneath, "I have this." ”

"Blue ...... Smoked?" Chen Mo carefully distinguished the bundle of blue plants, he still knew the blue smoked plant, there was botany in the curriculum of the Magic Academy, he knew some plants more or less, he knew that the smell of blue smoke could cover up their smell, but this method only worked for the desolate demons with low IQ, "Senior brother, the cunning demons are not those desolate demons with low IQ, even if your smell is covered by the blue smoke, but it may chase after this sudden smell." ”

"Of course I know that. A hint of cunning flashed in the corner of Luo Miao's eyes, "So I left a lot of blue smoke in the places I passed by, and then went back and forth along these ventilation pipes with blue smoke, what it smelled in its nose must be a strong smell of blue smoke, even if it can guess that I am hiding in it, it can't judge my location, there are more than a hundred places with blue smoke, it will find it slowly!"

Chen Mo was simply stunned by Luo Miao's train of thought, full of admiration, if he was that cunning demon, then he must be very crazy now.

"By the way, how did you deduce that there was another cunning demon before?" Chen Mo remembered this.

"Yes, there may be!" Luo Miao corrected Chen Mo's words, "So, did you really encounter another cunning demon?"

"Well, if it weren't for your senior brother coming in time, a few of us might have stayed there. Xue Xinling, who was helping Luo Miao wrap the bandage, nodded.

"Everyone's okay, right?"

“......”

This sentence was exchanged for silence between the two, and Luo Miao looked up and looked around...... One less person.

"Cui Jinlong......" Chen Mo considered his words, "he wanted to save Liu Xinyu...... Life and death are unknown, and we have no time to save him. ”

Chen Mo kept the truth of the matter for the time being, he was afraid that the angry Luo Miao would beat Zhao Guangguang again, not because he was thinking about Zhao Guangguang, but because he was worried that Luo Miao's wound would open again.

“...... That's it......" Luo Miao glanced at Liu Xinyu, who was sitting on the ground, bowing his head and choking, and Cui Jiekai, who was standing next to Liu Xinyu with an expressionless face, and sighed for a long time, "If only I could think of it faster......"

Chen Mo shook his head: "It's not your fault, junior brother, if I could find them faster, all this would not be this result." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Zhao Guangguang, who was sitting alone in the corner: And if it weren't for this guy, the person whose life and death are unknown would not be Cui Jinlong.

Xue Xinling tied the last piece of bandage and participated in their conversation, a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth: "You don't have to bear any responsibility for this, on the contrary, we can be saved by the two of you, we should thank you." ”

"Then let's wait until we get out of danger. Luo Miao smiled and shook his head, he knew that Xue Xinling said these words to enlighten him, and he couldn't continue to blame himself.

"Let me explain to you why I speculated that there might be a second Cunning Demon. Luo Miao changed to a more comfortable posture and sat down, "Senior brother, you must not have paid enough attention to the 'Desolate Demon Species' class, the information on the textbook of the dangerous Desolate Demon is quite complete. ”

Chen Mo's eyes drifted to the side, scratching his cheeks, it was quite embarrassing to be lectured by his junior brother: "So you deduced it from the materials introduced in the textbook?"

Luo Miao nodded: "Female cunning demons will raise them until they reach adulthood after giving birth to cubs before leaving their offspring, and judging whether a cunning demon is an adult depends on one condition: class."

A fifth-order cunning demon is an adult cunning demon, senior brother, judging by its size, the first cunning demon that appears is not enough to reach the fifth-order. ”
