Half an hour later, Dio had returned to the canyon, Sophia and the others had found the entrance to the tunnel, and Raymond had been waiting at the entrance of the tunnel for a long time, and when he saw Dio's figure from afar, he immediately jumped out and waved to Dio. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Why did you go so long?" said Raymond.

"There's a strange guy who is tougher. Dio bent down and burrowed into the tunnel, replying as he went, "I have no choice but to lead him to the lair of the mutant praying mantis." ”

"Is he strong?"

"Well, it's a high-level martial artist. Theo said.

Sophia and the others, who heard the conversation, couldn't help but look at each other, for them, the gap in rank was irreparable, and if any of them were to deal with high-level martial artists, they could support a few seconds at most, even if everyone flocked to it, they couldn't change the ending, only Dio, not only could he deal with it calmly, listening to his tone, it seemed that the trouble had been solved.

"Dio, is that guy dead?" asked Gordon.

"It's almost the same if you're not dead. Dio smiled: "Dozens of mutant mantis besieged him...... Imagine that kind of scene, is it possible for him to live?"

"Heavenly ...... Are there dozens of that terrible praying mantis?" Isabel lost her face, the combat power of a mutant mantis was already terrifying, and dozens of mutant mantis fought in unison, it was simply an elite assault team.

"That's good. Gordon breathed a sigh of relief: "In other words, it is impossible for the people of the Principality of Montenegro to discover the secret of the mutant mantis?"

"I don't know, just find out, it's nothing. Dio shook his head, saw that Gordon's face was different, and said with a smile: "Even if they send a large number of strong people to clean up those mutant mantises, they won't be able to find anything valuable." ”

"What?" Gordon was stunned.

"I just ran out of the mutant mantis' lair. Dio's smile was a little smug.

"What did you find?" Raymond shouted, "Quick, take it out!"

Dio flipped his palm, and five shiny stones were spread out in his palm, exuding a dreamlike light.

"It's pretty......" Isabel said in a daze.

"Star Core?!" Gordon and Raymond couldn't help but let out strange screams in unison, their voices were so loud that they startled Sophia and the others.

"This is the Star Core?!" Xue Ni exclaimed, she didn't open her mouth, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was timid, it turned out that she had never seen the Star Core when she had been cultivated by the Santis Academy!

Speaking of which, the powerhouses of the Santis Academy are just local rich people in a remote corner, while Gordon and Raymond are both from that kind of big family with deep roots, and their knowledge is naturally broader than that of Xueni.

"Hahahaha......" Raymond couldn't control his emotions anymore, and laughed wildly: "It's worth it......!

"I really didn't expect it! I really didn't expect it!" Gordon's face was also full of excitement: "No wonder a little praying mantis can change so much, and there is really a star core......! It seems to be a little smaller. ”

"Hillbilly!" Raymond said disdainfully.

"Who are you talking about?" Gordon looked up.

"Say you! Gordon...... Have you never seen any other star cores other than the Celestial Core treasured by your Sky City?" Raymond said with a grin, "How dare you say that this star core is too small?"

"I ......" Gordon's momentum couldn't help but leak, as if he was really accurate by Raymond, and murmured back: "Isn't it small, I don't think it's much bigger than the shards of the stars......"

"Some things are useless compared to size. Raymond said in a didactic tone: "It depends on the connotation......"

At this moment, the cat boy suddenly attacked, volleying towards the star core and star crystal in Dio's hand, its movements were completely instinctive, so its speed and momentum were not as sharp as when facing the enemy.

"I'll ......" Raymond raised his hand and punched the catboy on the chin, and in desperation, he used all his strength, and the catboy was knocked upside down, hitting the hole wall first, and then rolling to the ground.

The cat boy let out a wail, then got up and hid behind Laura, in fact, it didn't hurt at all, but, as the body grows, its consciousness can't keep up with the speed of physical development, for it, Raymond is still the big man who can easily pick it up and play with it, and it is very aggrieved, and it doesn't know why it was beaten, as for the idea of fighting back, it is not at all.

"Raymond, what are you doing?!" exclaimed Isabel.

Laura glared at Raymond angrily, her fists clenched, if she hadn't gotten along for a long time and regarded Raymond as a good partner, she would have done it a long time ago.

"You can't mess around...... You can't mess around......" Raymond shook his hands into an afterimage: "Let the cat eat the star crystal and star core, something will happen." ”

"Is it waste?" asked Chernie.

"It's not a matter of waste...... Raymond scratched his head and said, "In this way, let's say you can eat two catties of beef in one meal......"

"You can only eat two catties of beef!" Xue Ni said angrily, although most of her time is spent on hard cultivation, but she also knows how to maintain her beauty, figure and charm, when she used to live a normal life, she would only eat seven pounds full every time she ate, she would put down the utensils and eat two catties of beef?

"I'm just giving you an example...... "Raymond said with a bitter face: "All of a sudden, you eat a cow in one meal, what will happen?"

"Impossible, isn't it? How can a man eat a cow? It's almost the same to say that a cow swallows a man. Isabel said with a grin.

"Isabel, did you do it on purpose? I'm just giving you an example!" Raymond felt like crazy.

"We all understand that if the cat boy eats the star crystal, he may be strangled to death. Gordon laughed, "Even if it doesn't die, it will become a crazy monster!" Raymond said, "If those mutant mantis had eaten the star core, they wouldn't have survived until now!"

"Dio, put away the star crystals and star cores. Sophia whispered, "See? The cat boy has been secretly watching you, hehe...... The thief's heart is not dead. ”

Dio put away the star crystals and star cores, and then said, "Let's go, it's time for us to go." ”

The light of the sky could not shine into the tunnels at all, but the speed at which Dio and the others were advancing was not slow, because of the roaring beasts.

There seems to be something like lava flowing slowly in the body of the roaring beast, and Gordon and the roaring beast have been together for a long time, and often without speaking, the roaring beast can understand exactly what he means.

Gather the source power, but do not release it, the roaring beast at this time, the whole body will shine, especially in the tunnel where you can't see the five fingers, the brilliance is more conspicuous.

At the beginning, everyone was still a little uncomfortable, from the snowy forest to the tunnel, the contrast of light was too great, but after walking in the tunnel for more than 20 minutes, everyone was completely accustomed to the darkness, and what could be seen was more and more clear.

The adventurer had told them that when they came across a fork in the road, they would choose the one on the left, and they believed the message that there were only a few people in the world who liked to harm others and not to themselves, and that they had seen the adventurer's joyful expression and flattering eyes, and that the other party had no reason to deceive them.

Dio was also the busiest of all, tearing something from Sophia's skirt whenever he came to a fork in the road, or asking Isabel to order ornaments and throw them on the rest of the crossings. Sometimes, he will throw things into the right tunnel, this is the old suspicion, the pursuers of the Principality of Montenegro have suffered several losses, and found that the crossings that left traces are dead ends, and after learning the lesson, they will be led to the wrong path, but they will turn a blind eye to the right road.

He couldn't be careless, the appearance of that high-level Martial Venerable meant that the strong man sent by the Grand Duke of Montenegro to hunt them down was not only that fat man, but also other people, and there might even be a Wind Martial Venerable!

"Grandma's...... When Lao Tzu comes home, he will never let go of that Black Mountain Grand Duke!" Raymond would say the same thing when he tripped over a stone, chewing on tasteless dry bread.

It's nothing to say it once, but it seems to be deliberately showing how prominent his background is, and others can't stand it.

"Raymond, how nice it would be if you were a girl. Gordon said softly.

"What do you mean?!" Raymond's eyes widened in his habitual name.

"If you're a girl, I can forgive you. Gordon explained lightly.

"Poof......" Isabel burst out laughing, "I thought you were going to say that if you were a girl, I would marry you......"

Raymond and Gordon's faces darkened at the same time, of course, not noticeable in the cave.

And Isabel seemed to find her words interesting, eating and laughing under the cover of darkness.

"Don't be too mean!" Raymond said with a straight face: "Be careful that you can't get married in the future!"

"Are you angry? don't you...... Brother Raymond, I'm wrong......" Isabel's voice sounded sweet.

Raymond was immediately dumbfounded, he was most afraid of the girl's soft words to him, even if he knew that the other party had bad intentions, he would be at a loss and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Sophia, you're going to have to work hard. Gordon said in a deep voice: "You still don't know how much effect the stars will have on Dio, me, Raymond, and Xueni, be careful that the gap will get bigger and bigger!"

"Hmph...... Deliberately irritating me, right?!" Isabel sneered.

"Am I talking to you? I'm talking to Sophia. Gordon said, in fact, the words in his heart were, you don't stimulate me, how can I stimulate you?!

"I'll surprise you!" Isabel also seemed to lose her temper, and what she was most disgusted by was the insinuation that others evaluated her strength.

"Alright, let's save some effort. Dio said: "Gordon and Raymond quarrel every day, it's nothing, they are born with hatred, Isabel, what are you messing with?"

"I don't have it......" Isabel muttered in a low voice, these days, Dio has completely established his unshakable position in the team with his actual actions bit by bit, even the most eccentric Isabel, also subconsciously avoided talking back to Dio, you know, even in front of her mentor, Isabel will not be so honest.
