Chapter 172: Through the Tunnel
The three of them and one ghost immediately moved and continued down the river, crossing a wide waterfall again and entering the third level of the abyss.
Along the way, the three of Jiang Ye relied on the [Fushui Demon Talisman] to avoid the demons, and the [Shield Mountain Ghost], which was a ghost, was directly ignored by the demons.
The abyss of the third layer is under the rule of the Abyss Zerg, and most of the demons are mutant insects, and the concentration of spiritual power is greatly improved compared to the second layer.
"Ahh Alyssa suddenly screamed.
Jiang Ye and Yan Sang were both taken aback.
"Sister, what's going on!?"
Alyssa trembled and pointed to a long, thin black wooden stick in the water.
"It's just a stick." Yan Sang shrugged and swam towards it.
Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows, a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he did not stop Yan Sang.
Yan Sang grabbed the wooden stick and found that it was covered with brown spots, and it didn't feel right.
Somewhat soft.
The two ends of the wooden stick suddenly wriggled, and two oval-shaped insect heads poked out, opening their mouths to Yan Sang.
Burst!
Green pus came out of the stick's body.
"Holy!" Yan Sang screamed in fright and threw the wooden stick away.
"[B-grade water wood node insect], a mutant species of stick beetle, is non-toxic, and it is quite disgusting." Eno smiled.
Yan Sang coughed dryly and pouted: "It's just a little bug." ”
said, looked at Alyssa, and smiled: "Alyssa is not only afraid of mice, but also afraid of insects. ”
Alyssa blushed slightly and glared at Yan Sang: "What's the matter, a delicate girl like me is afraid of this!?" ”
"Delicate doesn't match you, okay......"
"Don't be afraid, miss, we'll be at the entrance of the passage soon." [Shield Mountain Ghost] comforted.
Everyone continued to move forward, and along the way, they saw several insects that were not very big, and even saw an "old acquaintance" [Ghost Knife Man Mantis].
As you go deeper, the insects around you get bigger and bigger, and the bottom of the water is covered with carapace corpses, and you can imagine how many insects have fought and multiplied here in the long years of the past.
"In fact, the secret realm is isolated from the outside world, and they will not invade humans." Alyssa said.
Yan Sang crooked his mouth: "No, the creatures in the secret realm may go out at any time, once they get out of the secret realm and discover the outside world, it will be a terrible disaster." ”
"Then don't let them out?" Alyssa retorted.
"Sometimes being is sin." Eno said, "When a creature that threatens you is around you, even if there is only a 1 percent chance of harming you, most people will have trouble sleeping. ”
"That's the psychology of you humans," Alyssa said after a moment's thought, "anyway, until I have full contact with humans, as an ordinary 'demon', I am not interested in you. ”
"Sister, that's because you don't eat meat, and your demon friends don't eat meat either." Yan Sang complained, "But that large group of demons who eat meat and soul are coveting the flesh and soul of human beings, the soul of all things." ”
“...... Well, you can also choose not to invade the secret realm, just block the entrance. Alyssa said.
Eno was silent.
It is impossible for humans to just block the entrance, because there are countless treasures in the secret realm.
Looking at it this way, maybe for the demons in the secret realm who are not inherently hostile to humans, humans are their "demons"?
But it's useless to discuss this now, the two sides have accumulated hundreds of thousands of years of hatred, and they will not be easily eliminated.
The Ghost of Shield Mountain put an end to the debate that had just begun.
"It's here!"
The crowd was suspended in the water, looking at a dark hole at the bottom of the river.
"Come with me!" [Shield Mountain Ghost] floated away first.
The three of them followed in turn.
Before entering the cave entrance, Eno stuffed each person with an [Immortal Talisman], and then placed two [Wooden Thorn Trap Talismans] at the entrance of the cave to trigger at any time.
Darkness squeezed in from all sides, and everyone instinctively held hands.
After holding his breath for a short distance, a ray of light appeared from the front.
Soon, everyone saw the exit.
Drill out of the water to reach a cave that emits a faint light.
"Wait, I'll see if there are any demons." [Shield Mountain Ghost] said and floated out.
He looked around, but didn't see a single demon, so he turned around and waved his hand.
Burst!
The crowd surfaced, gulping down the fresh air.
Eno climbed ashore and scanned the surroundings.
It's like the intersection of an underground tunnel, with more than a dozen openings in the four walls of the ring.
[Eye of Insight] didn't find anything abnormal, but through the wall, within the line of sight, it sensed some demonic spirits that were not very powerful.
The distribution of demons is irregular, scattered.
"Let's get here." [Shield Mountain Ghost] locked a hole.
The crowd followed.
The entrance to the cave was not high, which made Eno a little puzzled.
Wasn't the [S-Class Strange Law Crystallization Spirit] he saw very big?
How is it going to come out?
"Senior, have you seen the true face of the [S-Class Strange Law Crystallization Spirit]?" Eno asked.
[Shield Mountain Ghost] replied: "I've seen it once, it can transform into a human form, huh...... It's a bloated humanoid. ”
Eno fantasized according to the back he saw.
If that's the case, there's nothing wrong with that.
After walking for a while, Jiang Ye's eyes narrowed: "There are three A-level demon spirits in front. ”
[Shield Mountain Ghost] also sensed it just now, glanced at Jiang Ye in surprise, and immediately stepped forward: "You hide by the wall, although there are some water ripples twisted, but you can't see it if you don't pay attention." ”
"Hmm!" The three hid.
Footsteps approached.
Three A-class demons walked side by side.
One of the demon spirits saw the [Shield Mountain Ghost] standing still and said hello, "Serve my lord." ”
"No strangers." [Shield Mountain Ghost] responded.
The costumes of the three demon spirits looked like people from the last century, and they walked past the three of them, and their bodies were full of demonic energy.
Jiang Ye felt that at their level, his current level was afraid that he would not be able to "purify".
"Let's go." [Shield Mountain Ghost] motioned for the three of them to leave quickly.
After advancing a long distance again, and after dodging several waves of demons, the surrounding environment changed.
The tunnel suddenly descends at an almost vertical angle, and the walls are covered with black crystals.
The big eyes swept away, and they were all half-finished [Strange System Law Crystals].
"Now we estimate that we are in the fifth layer, and the sixth layer belongs to the powerful demons of the S-class, and they have little interest in this tunnel." [Shield Mountain Ghost] said in a deep voice, "But in the sixth layer, the strange aura and demonic aura are strong, and if you are not careful, you will be demonized. ”
"It's easy!" Eno snapped his fingers.
The strange realm element in the center of the eyebrows flashed, and there was an invisible barrier around the three people and one ghost, blocking all the strange aura.
As for the demonic energy, several people should be able to carry it.
Carefully grasping the wall and moving downward, Eno could feel that the strange system in the center of his eyebrows was gradually getting excited.
