Chapter 676: Escape and Planting
"Saved!"
After tumbling on the floor of the mage tower, Hu Siming took a few breaths, only to feel that he had lost his strength up and down. It wasn't until he barely sat up from the floor that he noticed that his health was only a pitiful hundred and ten points—and that was after he had recovered for two seconds after entering.
In other words, as long as Hu Siming was exposed to the red mist toxin for another second or two just now, he might not be able to enter again!
It's dangerous!
As soon as he remembered that he had just brushed shoulders with death, a strong fear rose in his heart. What I thought was a very thorough preparation is a joke in a new world full of dangers and where anything can happen. This ghost dragon lord who appeared unexpectedly gave Hu Siming a lesson himself, and made him really understand what he had known for a long time - but it had never been as profound as today.
However, just when Hu Siming thought he was safe, the roar of a ghost dragon suddenly came from outside.
Hu Siming's heart, which had just been put down, suddenly sank.
He suddenly remembered a big problem, when he was fleeing for his life, he thought that he could get rid of the red mist by withdrawing the mage tower, but he forgot that the mage tower itself had fallen into disrepair for a long time, and it had long lost the power of the Arcane Empire. In case this ghost dragon lord is unwilling to leave, and destroys the mage tower with great might, then ......
Thinking of this possibility, Hu Siming couldn't be annoyed and quickly stood up.
He genuinely hoped that might not happen. Because once the Ghost Dragon Lord launched an attack on this mage tower that could only barely be maintained, Hu Siming would not only die after losing his protection, but also lose the foothold that he had so hard to find before. If you want to venture to the Red Mist Ruins in the future, it will not be so easy.
The ghost dragon outside roared angrily again!
Hu Siming, who was worried, couldn't help but walk to the crystal reflection on the first floor of the Mage Tower while quickly recovering his blood volume. It was a magic trick to reflect the scene outside the Mage Tower on a glass plate-like crystal, allowing the minions inside the Mage Tower to observe the visiting guests outside.
The result surprised Hu Siming very much, and there were some surprises.
Seeing Hu Siming sneaking into the Mage Tower, the Ghost Dragon Lord subconsciously wanted to follow. However, the countless blood vines that entwined the entire mage tower made the ghost dragon lord instinctively sense the danger and temporarily hovered in the air. The first roar Hu Siming heard was its demonstration.
However, the blood vine, which was used to running rampant in this ruin, how could he ever be afraid of a demonic beast?
Stimulated by the tide of red mist, these blood vines were at the peak of their power, swaying their branches and leaves and rattan blades, provoking the ghost dragon lord, which was also a threat.
After patrolling around the low sky, the Ghost Dragon Lord was finally unwilling to let Hu Siming go, so he raised his height and rushed to the top of the Mage Tower. Its size was much larger than the main entrance of the Mage Tower, and Hu Siming could enter, but it was impossible for it to enter. Therefore, the ghost dragon used the method he was most accustomed to, preparing to directly demolish the top of the mage tower and descend from the rooftop. Moreover, the airspace above is wider, which is suitable for it to fight.
In response to it, it was the unyielding attack of the blood vine!
These terrible plants have long regarded the Mage Tower as their own territory. At least dozens of rattan blades, like springs pressed to the end, suddenly ejected twenty meters and launched a fierce attack on the Ghost Dragon Lord. The red juice contaminated with poison was also like a dense fountain, spraying out continuously, forming a deadly rain mist.
The second roar that Hu Siming heard happened after the Ghost Dragon Lord was caught off guard and suffered a small loss.
At this moment, there was a crystal reflection, and Hu Siming was able to watch the big drama in the first floor for a long time - the blood vine jungle of the mage tower vs. the ghost dragon lord of LV39!
Although the Blood Vines were not well-known in the ruins of the Red Mist, the terrifying number and the recovery power in the Red Mist gave them the strength of the overlord-level. And LV39's golden-named monster beast, which dominates the ghost dragon in the air, is also a rampant cunzi. These two collide together, and the battle will undoubtedly be as fierce as Mars hitting Earth.
The rattan blade that attacked first was shredded by the claws of the Ghost Dragon Lord almost instantly.
However, it was nothing more than a scream of pain as it was attacked by a constant stream of red juice. But whether it was the rapidly regenerating blood vine or the fierce inspired ghost dragon lord, they didn't seem to have the intention of retreating, but quickly launched a more violent attack.
A large mass of phosphorus fire was spewed out by the Ghost Dragon Lord.
Although this thing is different from Hu Siming's innate flame and cannot cause continuous restraint to the blood vine, its instantaneous lethality is extremely terrifying. More than a dozen rattan sticks stretched out were burned to black ash after the phosphorus fire. At the same time, several dark red rattan tentacles that were particularly flexible and thick also took advantage of the Ghost Dragon Lord's spell to suddenly burst out, firmly wrapping around its lower limbs, pulling the Ghost Dragon Lord out of balance and crashing into the Mage Tower.
Below that, more blood vines were already rejoicing and eager to try.
If it is an ordinary demonic beast, the moment you fall into it, you are afraid that you will be dead. But the Ghost Dragon Lord is only 1 level away from breaking through the LV40 mark, and his strength is extremely terrifying. Under the entanglement of the blood vine's attack, even if he lost his balance, he still swung his claws to inflict whirlwind and terrible damage around him, and used the instantaneous steps he showed when he chased Hu Siming before at the extreme moment.
And it's three shots in a row!
Like a short-range flash with a cooldown time of only 0/1 second, three continuous teleportations allowed the Ghost Dragon Lord to successfully get out of the crisis and fly back into the air.
With such lethality and mobility, Hu Siming felt chills when he saw it!
Fortunately, it was careless when it first chased and killed itself, and did not use all its strength, and when it didn't catch up later, it was too late to use it. If this big guy comes up with ten out of ten abilities from the beginning, even if Hu Siming has flash cards and various means, he will definitely not be able to escape.
At this time, Hu Siming couldn't help but think of his big move again.
If there is a strong mobility of the remnant flame, why would it be reduced to the point of being hunted down like this. Unless the enemy can control the zhì first, and a set of bursts and kills during the period, as long as there is a residual flame in a safe place, the spirit of the ashes is almost an unkillable existence.
Adjusting the experience distribution plan earlier, and raising the level to level 6 as much as possible, it was indeed a correct decision.
Just as he was briefly distracted, the battle over the Mage Tower broke out again. After a short period of altitude and hovering, the ghost dragon lord who couldn't swallow this breath swooped again, although there were many blood vines, but after all, it couldn't be infinite, it wanted to burn all these damn rattans to ashes, and then knock down the mage tower and eat the humans inside!
Between twelve o'clock in the afternoon and four o'clock in the afternoon, in the face of waves of attacks like the ghost dragon lord, the blood vine may not be able to be exhausted.
But now it's the red fog!
This wave of red fog that appeared nearly two hours earlier was stronger than Hu Siming had seen before. In such an atmosphere, Blood Vine can exert almost 120% of its combat power. Although waves of blood vines were cut off and burned to ashes, under the nourishment of the red mist, the blood vines' recovery ability was super strong, and it was difficult to solve the problem with the ghost dragon lord.
Looking at the excitement, Hu Siming, who is not a big deal, must be the blood vine.
In case the blood vine is defeated, with the domineering attitude of the ghost dragon lord, it will inevitably burn the mage tower to ashes along with him. But as the battle continued, Hu Siming suddenly realized that it was actually very good to lose both. In that case, Hu Siming could intervene in time, if he could snatch the kill of the Ghost Dragon Lord from the hands of the blood vine......
Even if the damage contribution is not enough and you don't have much experience, you can at least grab the drop!
What will a LV39 Golden Lord and a flying Sky Overlord drop?
Just thinking about it, Hu Siming felt that the blood flow rate increased, and his heart was pounding.
It's a pity that the Ghost Dragon Lord is still not so stupid after all. After being beaten all over his body by the blood vine, the anger in his heart gradually subsided, and he realized that he didn't need to fight with these immovable things at all, so he immediately patted his paws disdainfully, tilted his neck, and flew away in an instant.
Blood Vine, who also suffered a big loss, was also honest and didn't dare to provoke again.
Hu Siming's hope for a lose-lose situation did not happen!
In fact, the battle between the blood vine and it cannot be said to be completely useless. At the very least, the current state of the Ghost Dragon Lord is not even half of what it was at its peak. If a team of heroes now chases after them and initiates an encirclement, it will be much easier than starting from scratch. In the final analysis, Hu Siming's strength is not good. Even if the Ghost Dragon Lord was already scarred, he still couldn't help it, and he didn't dare to chase it out against the red mist.
After sighing regretfully, he watched the Ghost Dragon Lord disappear in the red mist, and then sat back on the floor.
If you don't get the benefits, you don't get it, at least before this sudden disaster, he managed to save his life. Thinking about the other heroes who entered the Red Mist Ruins to adventure, most of them were planted once, and Hu Siming's mood quickly balanced. But just after the joy of escaping death faded, the doubts about why this red mist tide happened in advance gradually surfaced in my heart.
How could a good red mist tide suddenly appear two hours earlier?
Was it an accident?
Still is...... Artificial?
If so, why have there been few similar accidents in the past few years......? In Hu Siming's heart, he instinctively thought of the panda wine fairy Wang Hongyang.
Could it be him?
Hu Siming's eyes flickered, and his heart suddenly moved.
Whether the reason for this red fog tide that appeared in advance is accidental or man-made, the truth is not important. What if he, as the captain of the large Libra team, stood up and accused this red mist tidal disaster of being man-made, and that the Panda Brewmaster did it?
Those heroes who hung up in this catastrophe are afraid that their anger will be poured out on him immediately, right?
As for evidence, there are some things that don't need evidence at all. Hu Siming's influence is the biggest evidence! Will the other students believe in a hero of an ordinary society, or will they believe in a master of Libra?
No, this matter cannot be brought up by Hu Siming on his own initiative.
It's no secret that the panda wine fairy has a grudge against him, as long as you have the heart to investigate, you will definitely be able to find out. If Hu Siming directly stands up and accuses, it is easy to think of planting. If you find an unlucky guy who hangs up and ask him to stand up and identify the panda wine fairy, Hu Siming will come forward to echo......
This plan seems to be feasible!
While Hu Siming was perfecting his plan and waiting for the red mist to recede in the mage tower, he didn't know that he had invisibly locked on the real murderer.
.........
The inertia that has been formed over the past thousands of years is strong after all.
Although disturbed by a brief explosion, the sudden tide of red fog subsided again after twelve o'clock at noon the next day. It's just that after such a disaster, even if the red mist tide recedes now, no one will dare to enter for a while, for fear that there will be any more accidents.
Wang Hongyang, who was guarding outside far away, witnessed this scene, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The catastrophe he single-handedly caused killed almost everyone in the ruins of the Red Mist!
The henchmen who had arranged in advance at the only safe point had already said that at the time of the incident, only one spirit warrior and a sword master had escaped here. Other than that, there was no one, and the two heroes didn't meet anyone else along the way.
If you guessed correctly, the kid surnamed Hu should still be counting seconds in the resurrection cemetery, right?
Thinking that he had finally killed this cunning enemy once, Wang Hongyang's brows couldn't help but stretch. He thought about it and decided to return to the cemetery of the base camp with his own eyes to confirm Hu Siming's death. Although he felt that there should be no mistakes in the plan, he didn't know why, he didn't see it with his own eyes, and Wang Hongyang's heart was always a little unsteady.
.........
Base camp, resurrection cemetery.
Unless a resurrection point is specially bound before leaving, students who die in the new world will be automatically teleported here to resurrect. Because of this, this special functional building is always one of the liveliest parts of the base camp, and people come out of it 24 hours a day.
If there is a disaster somewhere in the New World, it is more likely that a large number of students will die and be resurrected.
The convulsions in the ruins of the red mist are undoubtedly the most typical of them.
However, the problems caused by this disaster do not seem to be too big. Due to the high difficulty and risk, and the fact that it is only open for a limited time every year, there are not many students who venture into the Red Mist Ruins. Even if there was almost a unity, only a few dozen people were hung up. Compared to the big scene at the Dire Tide, it's nothing to mention.
The black-armored elite guarding here didn't even feel anything abnormal.
The resurrection time of the hero student is still relatively long, even if he has just entered the hero level and has not died much before, it will take at least more than a day. Seizing the time, Wang Hongyang, who had done a big case, changed his clothes in a low-key manner, waited in an inconspicuous place outside the cemetery, and carefully observed the students who came out after the resurrection.
A few hours later, familiar guys came out scolding one after another.
Although their faces were not good-looking, they did not notice anything unusual, just an accident. Always walking in the new world, who can not have a time when something unexpected happens. The red mist tide, which is not controlled by man, really happened, and you can only blame yourself for being unlucky. Except for a few Shouyuan, there are really not many of them, or they have dropped some particularly valuable equipment, otherwise they will complain a few times at most, and then find a place to hunt again.
No one felt the greasy inside, which made Wang Hongyang's heart feel steady.
If he could, he wouldn't want to drag the entire Red Mist Ruins into the water. It's a pity that Hu Siming was too cautious and never let him determine his whereabouts. And the name of Libra makes him afraid to ask for help casually. For more than a decade, things like this have been all too common. I found someone with an unreliable relationship to help here, but as a result, they sold the news of "XX is designing you" to the master of the Zodiac Society, and changed their favors.
Wang Hongyang waited for a week, but there was really no way, so he used the second set of plans, which triggered the tide of red mist.
However, although he did it with the idea of calculating Hu Siming, he finally counted all the students in the ruins of the red mist. If the news that he is the culprit leaks out, then it is a big problem. Wang Hongyang will become the target of public criticism in an instant, even if there is no conclusive evidence left, there will still be countless troubles.
No one is aware at the moment, and that's the ideal scenario.
It's just that Wang Hongyang lasted for more than a day, and with the resurrection of one guy after another, it gradually became bad.
From beginning to end, he did not see Hu Siming from the resurrected crowd!
