Chapter 32: The Great Crisis! Everyone is poisoned
After Gu Ci's treatment and a night's rest, Shi Di finally recovered his health, and there should be no problem in moving on. But Ke Meng was not so lucky, and I don't know if it was because the blow of the Thunderbolt Flame Demon was too domineering or what, although Gu Ci healed all his injuries, but he did not return to normal, but ...... Reverted back to the form of a Dangkang cub.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa......" So everyone was woken up from their sleep by Ke Meng's depressed howl.
Anna and the others had never seen Ke Meng's form of Dangkang, so they naturally felt very novel, and the little pig teased Ke Meng for a short time, making Ke Meng angry and screaming, he hated being called a little pig the most in his life, except for Luo Luo, who called him a little pig and who was in a hurry.
"Ke Meng, do you see what gift your sister Anna has prepared for you?" Anna deliberately took out the heavy sword she got yesterday and dangled it in front of Ke Meng's eyes, and said with a pretended regret, "Oh, it's a pity, you can't use it now, this is a divine weapon, much better than your original broken sword!"
"I'll be back soon!" saw that the heavy sword was indeed very majestic, and her round eyes shone with joy, and she seemed to like the heavy sword that Anna had found for him.
"You like this heavy sword, so did you forget to say something to Sister Anna?" Anna crouched down and scratched Ke Meng's head in a teasing way.
"Whew! How can a man's head be touched casually! Hmph, it's not a big deal, I will naturally get a better heavy sword than this in the future!" Ke Meng shook her head, just unwilling to thank Anna, but her expression was full of three words I want.
"Yo, you're pretty gentle......"
"Alright Anna, don't tease him, it's not too early, it's time for us to move on to the next level, Yimiao, did you learn anything from the Napoleonic Library related to the fourth floor?" Shi Di began.
"I only know that there are three blood clans in the fourth layer, and I haven't found more relevant records, and the literature about the ninth layer of purgatory, the further down you go, the less there are, most likely because there are fewer and fewer adventurers who can survive from the depths. ”
"Well, the soldiers will cover the water, let's go find the portal first. ”
The group continued to move towards the top of the hill, and soon came to the vicinity of the thunder and lightning array, Shi Di probed around, but found no mechanism, and just as he was thinking about how to find the portal, Yi Miao spoke.
"The portal on this level needs to use the flame element to dissolve the thunder and lightning elements here, you guys stand back, I have my own way to break the thunder and lightning array. ”
Everyone retreated to the rear according to the words, only to see that Yi Miao began to chant a spell in his mouth, raised the staff in his right hand, and dozens of red flame pillars flew out of the staff, flying straight towards the Dao Dao thunder and lightning in the thunder and lightning array, as soon as the flame light pillar touched the thunder and lightning, it burst out with a dazzling strong light, the red light pillar and the purple light pillar were stalemate for a while, and finally the red light pillar prevailed, and slowly moved forward little by little to devour all the purple light pillars.
A familiar black portal appeared in the center of the original lightning array area.
"That's it. Yi Miao stopped chanting the incantation and turned back to the others.
It's still the old rule, Shi Di was the first to walk into the portal, and the rest of the people followed.
After another dizziness, Shi Di calmed down and found that he had come to the fourth layer, the ground here was still a huge black rock, but there was no longer microcurrent and heat on the rock, it seemed that the environment here was much more normal than the previous three layers, and some herbaceous plants appeared around.
Shi Di's eyes fell on the grass in front of him, and he saw that the top of the grass was composed of many small white flowers forming an umbrella, and several of these small white umbrellas were connected to a grass stem, which looked quite beautiful from a distance.
However, Shi Di knew in his heart that this seemingly harmless plant is called poison ginseng, which is actually the main raw material of a fierce poison, and with some common ingredients, it can be used to make a bloody poison ginseng, which can quickly paralyze the muscles of living beings, so that they die within a few minutes due to paralysis of respiratory muscles and heart muscles.
Haha, it really didn't take much effort to get it, according to the record of the "Perfect Thief's Essential Book", poison ginseng is an extremely rare plant, and he actually encountered it here, and the poison ginseng made from it is much more powerful than the tears of Ace bought from the old man in the dark alleys of Napoleon City, Shi Di's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Shi Di hurriedly walked to the location of the poison ginseng, put on gloves, and carefully uprooted the plant and put it into the cowhide bag he carried with him.
At this moment, a vicious dog barking came into Shi Di's ears, and Shi Di looked up and found that two black hounds appeared about five meters in front of him. It doesn't seem appropriate to say that these two are hounds, because although they have the appearance of hounds, their bodies are covered in a layer of yellow-green smashes, and they obviously don't look like ordinary creatures.
The two hounds were obviously not good, and they had already sharpened their teeth towards Shi Di at this moment, and there was a sound in their throats that dogs only make when they saw food, and it seemed that they were planning to take Shi Di for breakfast.
Seeing this, Shi Di immediately took out the Spirit Binding Dagger, and at this time the two hounds couldn't wait to rush towards him, Shi Di quickly dodged from the position of the hound's attack, and the left and right hands crossed the abdomen of the two hounds at the same time, and the two hounds were disemboweled, and the yellow-green blood and internal organs flowed all over the ground.
"Sample! I actually want a dog to bite me!" Shi Di saw that the two hounds had been successfully dealt with, and strode away from their corpses, walking towards his companions who had been teleported to the fourth layer.
One thing that Shi Di overlooked was that the blood and internal organs of the two hounds were still flashing with yellow-green flames, as if something was emanating from those flames, gradually filling the surrounding air, but because this thing was colorless and odorless, no one noticed their existence.
After the group converged, they continued to walk forward, and along the way they encountered more than ten waves of the same hunting dogs, which basically moved in groups, and at most there were more than 20 of them, surrounding them. However, despite the large number of them, the attack ability of these hounds is very average, and they do not pose any threat to them, Shi Di and Anna basically solved one by one, and even the three waste materials of Alpha, Beta and Gamma also killed several of them.
However, everyone still did not realize that whenever those bloodhounds shed blood, some inexplicable substance would be added to the air, which was constantly eroding their health.
The first to discover the anomaly was Gu Ci, as a light elemental sorcerer whose main function was medical treatment, he keenly found that he had symptoms of weakness and depression, which were very mild at first, and he thought it was just the environment in the nine-layer purgatory, so he didn't care. But as they go deeper, especially after killing more and more hounds, the symptoms are clearly increasing.
"Wait!" Gu Ci said to stop everyone from moving on, "I think these hounds are a little weird, wait until I get some of their blood!"
Gu Ci walked to the side of a hunting dog's body, dipped his fingers in some blood, put it under his nose and sniffed it, his face sank suddenly, "The blood of these hunting dogs contains toxins that make people debilitating and weak, this toxin will slowly accumulate in our body, and if it accumulates to a certain extent, it will kill people!"
"We have killed a lot of hounds along the way, and every time we kill a batch of hounds, the toxin on our bodies is deeper, and I am afraid that we are not far from the amount of toxin death, we must not move forward, we must start treatment immediately, and if there are still hounds attacking us later, remember not to make them bleed again. Everyone's physique is different, and the bottom line of toxins that can be tolerated is different, maybe someone is already on the verge of death. Gu Ci said as he activated his spiritual magic and destroyed several hound corpses around them.
Hearing Gu Ci say this, everyone realized that the powerlessness and depression they felt just now turned out to be because they had been poisoned by the blood of the hound, and this toxin actually had a lethal effect.
"At this time, I found out that I had been poisoned, is it a little late?If you are allowed to recover like this, won't you be sorry for my little boys?" a woman's voice sounded.
"Hmph, there's another prey on the door. The woman's voice was followed by a man's voice.
"There's no need to talk nonsense with them, they won't live for a few minutes anyway. Another man's voice rang out.
Although there is no figure in sight, most of them are the three blood clans mentioned before, Shi Di must not secretly complain in his heart, this situation is really bad, the group is highly poisonous, not only in a state of detachment, but also may be killed at any time, but at this time it is a strong enemy.
It seems that this time, it is really in a big crisis!
Easter Egg Theatre:
Bloodhound: Woohoo!
Ke Meng: Whoa, who
Ke Meng: Whoa! Whoop! Hound: Hoop Woo Woo!
Translation: Well, in fact, the gist is that Ke Meng said to take his life, the hound said I want to eat pork, Ke Meng said look at my strength, the hound said I want to eat pork, Ke Meng said I want to destroy you on behalf of the moon, and the hound said I want to eat pork.
ps: Because I wrote a work related, this one was postponed for a few minutes, forgive me~ The newcomer continues to roll all over the ground, begging for support, asking for recommendation, asking for red tickets, asking for collection~
