Chapter 156: Deep Valley Cave

After a short rest, everyone recovered a lot of strength, and the already gray sky gradually darkened, and the narrow slit above their heads was no longer visible, which marked the arrival of a heavy rain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 InfoIt's not a good thing to have heavy rain in the valley, because the torrent will carry mud and stones from the top of your head, and maybe after a while, the valley will become a swamp, and by that time, the only creatures that will survive will probably be fish.

The group hurriedly packed their bags and made a quick forward under the guidance of the scouts, and after ten minutes they finally came to the end of the valley.

The mountain wall in front of him was as smooth as a knife, the green moss covered the mountain wall, and the thick vines were crisscrossed and crisscrossed, like the blood of the gods swelling. Occasionally crawling past a few tiny lizards, frightened by the ugly-looking trolls below, they burrowed into the cracks of the rocks and hid.

At the bottom of the mountain wall was a huge semi-circular cave, juttled out of the cave, like the jaws of wild beasts, waiting for the stupid little beasts to crash in. There was a chill from the deep entrance of the cave, and everyone couldn't help but shiver. The demon warriors took out the thick clothes from their backpacks and put them on the leather armor, and Liang Ke and Pietro also put on the soft fur they had exchanged for the beasts, and the bright and warm clothes made Pinto and his guards envious.

The scouts lit their torches and cautiously groped their way forward against the cave. The light emitted by the pine grease torch is pitifully faint in the dark cave, and Liang Ke even thinks that the heating effect of the torch is much greater than the lighting, but fortunately, the demon dragon Lord Achilles is a natural master of dark magic, and the "Eye of the Night" can make everyone see farther in a dimly lit environment, when Liang Ke pretended to chant the incantation, and the demon warrior suddenly saw the scene on the road ahead, everyone invariably cast an approving look at Liang Ke. Liang Ke had a serious face, his eyes were focused and deep, and he looked unfathomable, but what no one knew was that under his indifferent disguise, he was suffering from Achilles' scolding over and over again.

This is a nameless cave, and if it weren't for the Great Snake Xiudesen, the demons wouldn't know that there was a path to the civilized world besides the path of the ancestors. The empty cave was full of strange rocks, cold and slippery, and everyone had rough straw ropes tied to their feet so as not to slip on the winding paths.

Liang Ke could feel that the cave was slowly extending downward, and although the slope was not large, the fading torches indicated that the oxygen content in the air was decreasing. After walking for about half a day, everyone began to feel unbearably hot, and the heavy clothes were taken off, but they still couldn't make people feel some cool. The trolls held on to Dongbi and gasped for air, sweat flowing down their backs into streams, and no matter how much they drank, it was difficult to moisten their dry throats.

Liang Ke handed the water bag to Pinto, shook his dizzy head, and asked Pinto with a strong spirit.

"Did you come from here?"

"Who knows! The stones here are all the same, and we should be right to follow the signposts left by the army! Didn't we get the supplies left by the army just now?"

Liang Ke looked at Pidero, who was also weak, and Pidero shook his head to indicate that he did not feel the danger, but Liang Ke still felt strongly uneasy after years of scout intuition.

Liang Ke looked up at the roof of the cave, where huge stalactites hung upside down, like the sharp teeth of a shark, ready to chew the food in its mouth. Less than fifty paces further on, there was a small pool of water, which trickled down the cave and disappeared into the small hole on the other side. Liang Ke rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, only to find that there was more than one hole the size of this fist, and from the ground to the top of the cave, there were no less than 100 such small holes. Liang Ke's pupils shrank sharply, and he asked nervously, "Did you pass by that small waterhole when you came?"

"No, my lord, I'm sure, because I was the scout at the front when I came. A diminutive spirit demon replied quickly.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Pinto also suddenly realized the danger, grabbed the spirit demon by the neck, and glared at him and questioned him.

"Ahem! I ...... We kept following the signpost, I ...... I thought that Lord Sean must have found a shortcut, and it was normal to change routes, so ......"

"All on alert, retreat in commando formation. ”

Pinto didn't care about holding the scout accountable, let go of the spirit demon and roared, and a blue flame was summoned, and the giant sword in both hands was crossed in front of his chest. Liang Ke also pulled out the giant blade and stared vigilantly at the small puddle, which was obviously just a puddle of less than three meters, but it made him feel a kind of uneasiness about being targeted by the beasts of the wilderness.

"Mouse!"

As soon as the team finished assembling, the dwarf spirit demon pointed to the cave and shouted. Liang Ke's entire attention was focused on the water, and when he heard the warning of the spirit demons, he turned his head to look, and found that thousands of gray-black rats had gathered on the way, and countless rats were still coming out of the holes in the stone wall. They squeaked, their two long fangs stuck under their noses, their stiff tentacles shaking with their noses, and they looked like circus clowns.

However, when thousands of clowns gather together, even the most cute smile can make people feel inexplicably oppressive, not to mention that from the faces of those palm-sized mice, all that can be observed is the salivation of their prey.

These pesky rodents don't seem to be in a hurry to eat their prey, and tens of thousands of fierce-eyed rats surround the group in the middle, squeaking and intimidating their opponents.

In the face of such an opponent, Liang Ke felt powerless. This time is different from the wolf cavalry under the Rumbet Cape, the elite squad cavalry can be interspersed with the enemy's battle formation, there is a key factor, that is, the enemy formation is not very dense, each soldier can face two or three enemy soldiers at most at the same time, so that relying on the far beyond the single combat power, you can quickly cut out a bloody path and disrupt the enemy's formation. However, due to the limited physical strength of each person, it is impossible for even the most elite soldiers to continuously cut the enemy formation.

Liang Ke believes that once the war starts, these petite and agile animals will inevitably rush towards him like a torrential rain, and is there really a martial art in the world that water can't splash into? That is just the boasting of the wandering poet, at least he can't do it. Hundreds of rats lay on top of themselves and eat their own flesh and blood, and it makes people shiver to think about it. If it was just himself, he could jump on Sanduo's back and slip away, but if he wanted to break through with these demon warriors, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream!

Just when Liang Ke measured the situation and summoned Sanduo to prepare desperately, he suddenly heard a shrill voice let out a strange laugh.

"Hey, hey, hey, trust! One of the most beautiful human emotions, alas, that old man will never know until he dies, and it is because of his trust that his handsome nephew is brought to my mouth. ”

Liang Ke followed the sound with a big knife, and at some point, the puddle that was originally smooth as a mirror rippled a few times, and a black and shiny otter with a fat body came out of the water and crawled out of the puddle awkwardly. Then, to everyone's surprise, it actually held a dead branch with its short front paws and stood upright like a human. The otter that stood up was like a ball, its little eyes glaring, its two dazzling white teeth, and its small mouth struggling to breathe in the air, and it seemed that every movement was a kind of torture for it.

After half a minute, the fat otter finally gasped for breath, writhed his big buttocks, which had completely covered his legs, and took two steps forward, and said, "Now, dear gentlemen, let us know you! I am Atwood Dawson, and you may call me Lord Earl if you wish." A noble otter with a knighthood, don't you think it's funny?"

The fat otter Atwood squinted his little eyes and scanned everyone, and Liang Ke believed that as long as someone dared to show a hint of ridicule, this guy who had turned into an otter and maintained his elegant appearance would not hesitate to let the rat men gnaw them into a pile of white bones.

However, in the face of this civilized and polite guy, Liang Ke no longer felt afraid, what can't be communicated between civilized people? Liang Ke shook his head at Pinto without a trace, jumped off Sanduo's back, inserted the long knife into the scabbard, and then solemnly gave a standard aristocratic hat salute to the fat otter opposite.

"My Excellency, I am Aragonese Liang from Gallente, a hereditary baron, and it is a great honour to meet His Excellency the Earl here. This is General Pinto, and the great nobleman of the Demon Clan, and we are terrified and disturbed by disturbing the rest of the Earl, so please allow me to sincerely apologize to you and your people. ”

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, flamboyant, hypocritical guy! I haven't heard such hypocritical flattery for many years, and I really don't want to eat you all, hey! I can only blame you for your bad life. I'm a tolerant person, what else do you want to say before I die?"

Liang Ke has always believed that as long as he can speak, he is still far from doing his best, and the more he talks, the more difficult it is to do it, because he will always find a balance between the interests of both parties in the conversation.

"I do not expect you to tell me the reason for killing us in the face of your great power, but I think that a noble earl will have mercy on the curiosity of me, a dying man, and I wish to hear your story before you eat me. ”

"My story?"

The otter dragged his big ass two steps forward again, then leaned back and sat down on his little short legs.

"I didn't expect that the people who care about my story are actually my food, which is a great irony. Since His Excellency the Baron is so interested, then I will satisfy your curiosity. After today, maybe I will forget that story myself. ”

Liang Ke didn't seem to be worried that he was about to become someone else's excrement after a meal, so he sat on the stalactite pier beside him with great interest, took out a handful of frog jerky, and tasted it carefully. Seeing the greedy eyes of the big rats, Liang Ke was not stingy, and threw out a large handful of dried meat, causing those hunters to squeak and scream, and they ate nothing left in the blink of an eye. Fat Otter Atwood licked his lips and closed his eyes, and by the time he opened them again, there was already a small pile of jerky in front of him.
