Chapter 7: Into the Nest
The general's gaze swept over, and he looked left and right at the five people in front of him, he thought that this young man with different eyes was quite a leader, so he looked at the young man and introduced himself: "I am He Lanzhen, the commander of the North Division of Youzhou Town of Hong Tianguo. ”
Who knew that he looked away, and the sturdy man next to the young man opened his mouth, and it turned out that he was the leader of the five.
Captain Manniu bowed and said: "I have seen the general, we are members of the seventh team of the Shadow Gate Demon Hunting Faction, I am the captain, codenamed Manniu, and I have been entrusted to arrest the culprit of the ghoul case." ”
The general nodded: "Well, I have heard about it for a long time, and it is really the same as I expected, the skills I saw you are indeed extraordinary, if you don't save me in time, I'm afraid that I am already a ghost under the hands of ghouls." ”
The bull looked at the pile of burnt ghouls on the ground and asked, "But how did they escape?" Could it be that they already have the power to break the formation? ”
The corner of the general's eyes quietly glanced at the general Bai An, Bai An's eyes flickered and dodged, and then the general pretended to be confused and said: "I can't remember clearly, I just drank some wine, maybe the power of the magic circle is no longer powerful after a long time." ”
Bai An's behavior is suspicious, and it's hard not to suspect that he did all this.
First, he left halfway through drinking, and it happened that the ghoul broke out at this time, and then he hurriedly beheaded the sentry without saying a word, to say that it was because of anger? It was himself who was attacked by the ghouls, not him, what was his anger, and it should be himself who was angry, so why did he kill the sentry in such a hurry? It's kind of like an extermination, but there is no evidence in front of me and I have to pretend to be stupid.
He could also sense that Bai An seemed to covet his place.
In the Hongtian Kingdom, each state has a state guard, as well as the four military points, respectively: Zhaodong Division, Fuxi Division, Annan Division, Zhenbei Division, all four are under the orders of the state Shousi, the state Shousi is equivalent to the emperor of the state within a state, there is a saying among the people, it is: "Rather disobey the emperor, do not provoke the king of the state." ”
Helan Zhen was parachuted into Bai An's boss, Bai An was also the general of the previous Zhenbei Division, after the death of the previous commander, Bai An was originally the best candidate for the next commander, but the state guard suddenly parachuted a queen's cousin over, which made Bai An feel very unfair in his heart, to talk about talent, Bai An is stronger than him, to say military merits, Bai An is also more than him, if it is not for the queen in the court He Lanke, now the queen mother, how can He Lanzhen, such an ordinary ordinary man sit in the position of the commander of the Zhenbei Division.
In the past few years, He Lanzhen has not been in charge of things very much, and he has given Bai An all the work to do, so that Bai An has the opportunity to install henchmen everywhere, and He Lanzhen's power has gradually been hollowed out.
If people mention Zhenbei Division, the first thing that comes to mind is Bai An, not He Lanzhen.
After such an incident happened today, Helan Zhen realized how vicious Bai An's heart was, if he couldn't find a chance to get rid of Bai An, then he could only go back to Mangzhou, otherwise it would not be worth losing his life for an official position.
If the first emperor is still there, he doesn't have to worry about these, his queen Helan Ke's cousin can help him settle this little person, but now that the first emperor is dead, the queen can no longer be a fox and a tiger, and now there is an undercurrent in the court, and the queen can't suppress the princes in the court who have ghosts in their hearts, and the mountain is far away from the emperor, and the imperial power is crumbling in the hands of the young emperor.
Helan Zhen ordered his subordinates to bring an artifact, which was shaped like a round mirror and was pitch black.
He introduced: "This is the spirit square, the Panxiao City Lord activated the magic circle before he died, and by the way, he used the power of the magic circle to record the location of the murderer, the murderer is still in the magic circle, and the spirit square will show the location after entering the magic circle." ”
Panxiao City and the surrounding thirty kilometers are all caged and within the magic circle.
Helan Zhen handed over the Spirit Fang Instrument to Manniu.
The brute bull took the spirit instrument and looked at it for a while, and said, "You can activate it with spiritual power, right?" ”
He Lanzhen nodded: "Yes." Then he asked, "Are you ready?" ”
"How to get in?" Brute Bull asked.
Helan summoned the soldiers to bring a stone plate and undo the seal on it.
A blue circle of light appeared on the stone disk, and there was darkness inside the circle.
The white wolf whispered to Snow Deer, "This is the teleportation stone, a high-level thing. ”
Snow Deer: "Yes, I've heard of it. ”
The use of teleportation stones requires a marked point in advance, and then the teleportation stone can only be used to teleport, and can only enter the marked point from the opening place, and cannot reach the opening side through the teleportation circle from the marked point side.
Markers are marked by mercenaries who have previously entered the formation.
He Lanzhen distributed a bracelet to each of the five people, which was made of obsidian with complex ancient runes.
"This allows you to perceive the distance and vital signs of your teammates," he said. ”
"How is it displayed?" Qiu Xiao asked curiously.
He Lanzhen said, "You inject spiritual power and try it." ”
Qiu Xiao did as he did and injected spiritual power into the bracelet, and then five small green dots appeared in his mind, just like the five people standing together now.
Qiu Xiao opened his eyes and looked at He Lanzhen and said; "There are five green dots in my head, and that's the five of us, right?"
He Lanzhen nodded: "That's right." ”
"After you go in, be careful, don't make a big move, otherwise it will attract a group of ghouls to attack, and remember to catch the one alive, the real murderer behind the scenes must live, after success, you go to the easternmost formation, and then break the spirit orator, so that I will get the signal, and then send someone to open the gap to rescue you out."
Helan Zhen advised.
The bull faced the four of them and said, "Are you ready?" Let's go. ”
"Okay, who's going to take the lead?" The white wolf turned his eyes to the bull, the falcon and Qiu Xiao and said.
"I'll come."
Qiu Xiao walked towards the blue aperture.
The five of them put on the bracelets and entered the blue circle of light one after another, and the red pupil Qiu Xiao took the lead in entering.
————
There seemed to be an electric current passing through his body, and he felt numb all over his body, and then a strong white light flashed in front of his eyes.
As the white light faded, the five had reached the marker.
What is this place?
A strong sour smell of rotting vegetables and fruits came to my nose with a fishy smell.
It looks like it's a cellar.
"Hmm.." Xuelu immediately reached out and covered his mouth and nose, this fishy smell really made people feel very disgusting.
Seeing this, the white wolf tore open the sleeves of his clothes, made a prototype of a mask, and then put it on for Snow Deer.
"There's a human corpse." Qiu Xiao saw a corpse curled up in the corner, although it was pitch black here, Qiu Xiao was practicing night vision, even if the environment was dim, it would not have any effect on them.
The corpse was in tatters, with organs scattered all over the ground, and there were signs of gnawing everywhere, but judging by the extent of the blood, it seemed that it had not been dead for long.
That means: The thing that killed him may still be nearby!
The bull speculated, "I think this man was killed by a ghoul." ”
"Shhhh
The falcon made a low gesture, then gently pulled out his short crossbow.
He hunched over and slowly walked up the cellar steps, barely making a sound of footsteps.
And above the cellar .. There was the sound of Gadagada's bones rubbing!
