Chapter 252: Duplicity

"Don't be nervous, everybody." Fortunately, Long Haochen got up in time to help Yue Shen relieve the siege, so as not to let Yue Shen bother to explain to everyone again.

"Because I don't want everyone to think about it, I only told you that I was forced to inherit the necromancer Tower of Eternity, and I didn't tell you about Brother Yue." While explaining to everyone, Long Haochen rolled down the sleeve on his right hand and showed the brown imprint produced by the eternal melody fused into his body for everyone to see.

Seeing this, Yue Shen also learned Long Haochen's movements and showed everyone his eternal melody imprint.

After seeing that everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, Yue Shen also sat in their team without any exception.

"What's wrong with you?" Yue Shen opened his mouth and asked, "Why do you look nervous?" And all of them are injured, have you encountered a strong enemy? ”

"Brother Yue, you should also know that our team is acting independently this time, and the exploration mission we have received is to explore the dark swamp located on the border of the demon race, in Andu Province, right?" Long Haochen first motioned for everyone to rest and recuperate, then moved his body and sat down next to Yue Shen and asked.

"Hmm." Yue Shen nodded, the whereabouts of Long Haochen's team, he naturally couldn't be clearer, "Have you encountered the Demon Clan?" And it seems that there are quite a few of them, otherwise you wouldn't be so embarrassed. Yue Shen asked tentatively.

"No, it doesn't have much to do with the demon clan...... Long Haochen first smiled bitterly, he didn't sell it, and quickly reopened his mouth to explain to Yue Shen: "Because Andu Province is located on the border of the demon clan, the number of demons we have encountered along the way is not much, let alone the demon hunting. ”

"And even if we are really unlucky and meet the troops of the Demon Hunter and the Demon Clan, we also have a demon boy and identity token that can disguise ourselves as the Moon Demon Clan."

Speaking of this, Long Haochen's words changed.

"The real danger comes from the dark swamp." Long Haochen glanced at the filthy armor on his body, and then at the clean and neat light blue power suit on Yue Shen's body, and also subconsciously moved to the side a little.

"What happened to you?" Yue Shen pretended to be curious and asked, "This seems to be the second time you have entered the Tower of Eternity and played its role as a 'safe house', right?" Yue Shen glanced at Sima Xian, who was sitting on the side, with a bone wound on his chest that was almost visible, "It seems that your situation is a little unoptimistic." ”

Yue Shen said as he took out several bottles of pills that could be used to treat external injuries from the storage ring between his fingers and distributed them to everyone.

"Thank you, Brother Yue." Seeing this, Sima Xian hurriedly got up and clasped his fists and said to him.

It's just that because he got up too much, it also involved the wound on his chest, and the pain made him break out in a cold sweat.

Yue Shen nodded, but he didn't say anything, just stared at the wound on Sima Xian's chest.

"Is this an injury caused by a demonic beast?" Yue Shen glanced at the tiny spikes that were pierced into Sima Xian's wound and asked.

"Well, it's a magical beast called a sawfish." Sima Xian gritted his teeth and said.

Seeing that Yue Shen didn't mean to talk to him too much, Sima Xian also returned to his original position with great interest. With the help of Gandalf, who is both a magician and a warrior, and can act as a half-priest if necessary, he treats his wounds.

"Sawfish?"

Yue Shen whispered to himself, roughly confirming the progress of Long Haochen and the others' tasks at this time.

"Thank you." Wang Yuanyuan took the pill handed by Yue Shen with a complicated complexion, and thanked him softly.

Although the injuries on Wang Yuanyuan's body are far less serious than those on Sima Xian's body, the physique is different from person to person, especially Sima Xian, a muscular guy who is born with strong external spiritual power. For a normal person, an injury that can almost be regarded as a fatal injury is nothing more than suffering from flesh and skin.

Because the legal members of Long Haochen's team had Long Haochen and him under the protection of the two guardian knights, the knight Han Yu, there were no obvious external injuries all over his body, so Yue Shen did not continue to give them the pill, and sat back beside Long Haochen.

"It looks like the actual situation in the dark swamp is different from when I took the mission." Yue Shen said.

"The Dark Swamp is indeed much more dangerous than we thought." Long Haochen nodded, his face showing a little tiredness, "We found a lot of powerful demonic beasts that the alliance thought were extinct before, such as the forest snake, the devil flower, and the sawfish ......"

"They don't know how many years they've lived in the Dark Swamp, and almost every individual of the Demonic Beasts we encounter has reached the level of at least seventh-level Demonic Beasts."

"If it's just a seventh-level demonic beast, then we still have the strength to fight against it." Long Haochen continued: "However, with the exception of the Forest, almost all the demonic beasts are active in the dark swamp in the form of group action. ”

"The last time we came to the Tower of Eternity, we were all a little tired from the long journey, so I brought them here to rest." When Long Haochen said this, he also showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.

After all, he had promised Yue Shen before that he would help him keep the secret of his possession of the Tower of Eternity.

"I brought people here first." Yue Shen shook his head and continued, "And I also believe that your teammates will help us keep secrets, so let's get down to business." ”

"Hmm." Long Haochen replied lightly, "We accidentally strayed into the territory where the sawfish tribe lived, and we were attacked by them. The wound on Sima's chest was caused by the King of Sawfish. ”

"That's right...... And where is your last teleportation? Yue Shen then asked.

"The territory where the sawfish live is over." Long Haochen replied.

"Need my help?" Yue Shen asked again, "After all, the location of the Tower of Eternity teleporting back and forth is fixed, and I have also seen the Saw Ray in the Warcraft Classics that the teacher gave me, if nothing else, as soon as you teleport over, you will immediately be attacked by the Saw Ray Clan." ”

"No, I can fix it." Long Haochen shook his head, "I've also figured out the teleportation rules of the Tower of Eternity, so I need to go back and change the landing point of the teleportation, so as to ensure everyone's safety." ”

Seeing that Long Haochen had said everything here, Yue Shen didn't want to say anything more.

"Stay safe." Yue Shen reminded.

……

Since the 'plane' where the Tower of Eternity is located does not have any elements, Long Haochen wants to recover his spiritual power here at this time, and he can only do so by taking pills.

While Long Haochen was recovering his spiritual power, Yue Shen also learned from the mouths of the rest of his team about what they had been going through during this time, as well as what they had gained during their exploration of the dark swamp.

Although they fled to the Tower of Eternity in embarrassment because they strayed into the sawfish's living territory this time, it also made the sawfish that attacked them pay a great price.

There were dozens of sawfish killed by them and their corpses alone.

Sawfish, a giant fish with a body length of about two meters. The appearance is peculiar, the whole body is flat, and the body appears flat and slender.

Yue Shen had read the records of these demonic beasts in the classics, so he had already been mentally prepared before they took out the corpse of the sawfish and introduced it to themselves.

It's just that when a relatively intact sawfish corpse appeared in front of him, it was still a little unexpected for him. He really didn't expect that the real appearance of these sawfish was far more hideous than he imagined.

At the front end of the sawfish's head is a jagged tooth-like mouthpiece that is more than a meter long and occupies more than half of its total body length.

Although the sawfish's corpse looked to have some signs of decay, the silvery-white serrated surface still shimmered with a silvery-white luster, exuding a surging spatial attribute aura to the outside world.

Even in a very dimly lit place like the Tower of Eternity, the cold light flickering on the sawfish's carcass was still clearly visible, which was enough to prove its sharpness, as well as ...... Sima Xian's life is so hard.

That's right, this fish monster called sawfish is actually a spatial attribute monster.

With the blessing of Tosol, Yue Shen can also use the skill of the spatial attribute. And it is precisely because of this that Yue Shen can better understand how powerful the cutting effect of the spatial attribute is.

However, after seeing Sima Xian's 'iron ball' called the Light Pill, which was almost shattered, Yue Shen finally knew that it was not Sima Xian's life that was hard, but that he had taken shit luck.

After knowing the recent history of the Shuai-level No. 62 Demon Hunting Troupe, Yue Shen also didn't know what he should do now.

To continue his progress through the layers of the Tower of Eternity, in an effort to unlock the next Eternal Guardian sooner? No, no, Long Haochen's teammates are still here at this moment.

It doesn't matter if the matter of his possession of the Tower of Eternity is exposed, but the matter of cultivating Yin Lex's inheritance must not be known to them......

"Brother Yue, I have some questions I want to ask you, I don't know if it's convenient for you now?" Just as Yue Shen was seriously thinking about his next move, Cai'er's question sounded in his ears.

"Cai'er, you say." Yue Shen obviously didn't expect Cai'er to take the initiative to talk to him, so he was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses and signaled that the other party could continue to talk.

"When I was before, I always felt that Brother Yue, you and Haochen seemed to have some secrets hidden from all of us." Cai'er looked at Yue Shen's eyes and asked softly, "Is this the Tower of Eternity?" ”

It's really terrifying...... Yue Shen couldn't understand what actions he and Long Haochen had made the other party suspicious.

However, since the matter of the Tower of Eternity had already been known to them, Cai'er came to ask Yue Shen this kind of question at this time, and he did not panic at all, and directly and generously admitted it.

However, to Yue Shen's surprise, Cai'er didn't actually think like this.

"Although this matter really can't be known to the Alliance, especially Brother Yue, you and Haochen are both children of light in your Knight Temple, otherwise it will have too much impact on you at that time......," Cai'er said to herself.

"That's why we decided to hide it from everyone." Yue Shen sighed, and after brewing his emotions a little, he continued, "It stands to reason that Haochen and I should not have any intersection with the evil profession of necromancer, let alone inherit their inheritance. ”

Long Haochen: "......"

Brother Yue, I am digesting the medicinal effect of the pill, not meditating, I can hear everything you say now.

"You should have heard Haochen talk about the specifics of the matter, right?" After receiving Cai'er's affirmative reply, Yue Shen also continued: "If it weren't for a critical moment like this, Haochen and I would probably not have been able to set foot in this necromancer's inheritance for the rest of our lives. ”

The Tower of Eternity, the three twelve holy guards who had been defeated by Yue Shen and received his allegiance, were standing by the window on the third floor at this time, quietly watching their master perform.

"That's how it happened, and we didn't mean to hide it from everyone." Yue Shen said apologetically, "I'm just worried that everyone will fall into a panic week after learning that we have been entangled by such a powerful necromancer. ”

"I see." Cai'er was still talking to herself just now, and she didn't know if she had listened to what Yue Shen had just made up with great difficulty, but fortunately, she gave an answer.

However, just when Yue Shen thought that the matter was over, Cai'er suddenly said coldly: "But if it's just a secret of this level, in the eyes of Brother Yue and Haochen, even I can't know about it?" Or do you think I'm the kind of person who divulges secrets? ”

Long Haochen: "??? ”

Yue Shen: "??? ”

This taste...... Why is it inexplicably familiar?

"No, no, no, this is what I meant, it has nothing to do with Haochen." After realizing that if this matter was not handled well, it was possible that Long Haochen would be brutally pitted, Yue Shen was also very 'righteous' and took the responsibility on himself.

Besides, this is indeed his problem.

After all, as early as before, Long Haochen had told him that Cai'er had been suspicious when she entered his room several times, but she didn't see him. He was very entangled in whether to tell Cai'er everything about the incident and dispel her suspicions.

It's just that Yue Shen didn't take this seriously at the beginning, just regarded it as a small conflict between lovers, so let Long Haochen turn around and prevaricate for whatever reason.

After hearing that Yue Shen took all the responsibility on himself, Long Haochen finally breathed a sigh of relief and put his hanging heart back into his stomach.

It's just that his crisis of trust in Long Haochen is in contact, but the thoughtful Cai'er is not so easy to get rid of, and her eyes fell on Yue Shen.
