Chapter 198: The Study and the River (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Peng Fei, he's the new guard?"

Seeing Xu Shen come out, several people who were waiting in the hall on the first floor looked over and looked at Xu Shen.

They had already received the news that a new guard had joined their six-way team, but they didn't expect to look so young.

Han Pengfei nodded, gave a brief introduction to Xu Shen's situation, and then introduced the other four to Xu Shen, and after a few minutes, everyone was able to call each other by name.

"I'm free to learn."

The young man named Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Xu Shen saw that there was no provocation in his eyes, just a strong interest.

Han Pengfei said helplessly: "Xu Shen, don't get me wrong, he is such a person, he likes to communicate with someone when he has nothing to do, and when no one accompanies him, he runs to find the ruins to play, without malice." ”

Xu Shen nodded in understanding, and said politely to Lin Xiao: "If you have a chance, you can." ”

"Then even if you say yes." Lin Xiao's eyes lit up.

Xu Shen saw his excited appearance, and suddenly felt as if he should refuse directly.

"The captain is here."

Another beautiful woman next to her suddenly said.

Her name is Lou Haiyin, and she is another person in the team who has the ability to perceive.

The previous Lin Xiao was a strengthened system, but it was a relatively rare transformation ability in the enhanced system.

Moreover, Xu Shen also noticed that the surname Lin, which is also one of the surnames of the seven Gao clans in the inner city, is most likely the same as Han Pengfei, and the above generations have been exiled by the Gao clan.

Footsteps sounded, Wang Cheng walked in from outside, saw that everyone had assembled, nodded, his eyes swept Xu Shen, and said, "Does the armor still fit?" ”

"Fit."

Xu Shen raised his hand, indicating that there was no obstacle.

Wang Cheng nodded slightly, and said: "It's almost time, the location of today's inspection is His Highness's study and Youhe, Xu Shen, you just reported today, go to the study with Shen Wanqing to inspect, and the rest of the people go to Youhe, the queen ant has gone there to enjoy the lights before, it may be a little dangerous, you are all smart." ”

"Yes." Everyone nodded.

Xu Shen looked at the other girl in the team, Shen Wanqing looked ordinary, not the amazing type, but if she looked closely, she felt a sense of serene beauty.

As the detachment was completed, Han Pengfei patted Xu Shen on the shoulder: "If there is something, I will summon the message, Wanqing is a veteran player, ask her if you don't understand anything." ”

"Hmm." Xu Shen nodded: "You should also be careful." ”

"Gone."

Han Pengfei waved his hand in a dashing manner, and then left with several other people.

Shen Wanqing also turned around and walked towards another route.

Seeing this, Xu Shen immediately followed his footsteps.

Passing through the garden outside along the way, Xu Shen had followed Han Pengfei to familiarize himself with the route before, but he was not too unfamiliar.

Soon, they came to the study where the queen ant was reading.

It is said to be a study, but it is actually a separate building, as large as a library.

When the guard at the door saw the two, he immediately nodded and saluted, Shen Wanqing didn't say anything, pushed open the door, and came to the study to patrol around.

Xu Shen immediately saw that in this study, there were rows of huge bookshelves, when he was familiar with the route with Han Pengfei before, he only passed by outside, and did not enter it, at this moment Xu Shen had a feeling of entering the sea of books.

As far as the eye can see, the shelves are full of dense books.

It was extremely quiet inside, and the guards were all outside, Xu Shen looked around and couldn't help asking, "Are these the books that His Highness reads, she...... Can you see it? ”

Shen Wanqing didn't look back, walked in front of herself, and said, "Your Highness likes to read books and collect books, whether you can read them or not is not our responsibility." ”

Xu Shen also realized that his question was a bit rude, and he asked, "The captain said that His Highness went down to the Youhe River to enjoy the lanterns, why did it become more dangerous there?" Is there someone who is going to ambush and wait for the opportunity to assassinate the queen? ”

Shen Wanqing's voice was quiet, there was no indifference, but there was a faint sense of alienation, it seemed to be out of the crowd, her eyes were joyless and sad, and said: "The danger does not refer to people, but to ruins, no one in Termite City is stupid enough to assassinate the queen ant, of course, it is not that no one has assassinated, but they all failed." ”

"Ruins?"

Xu Shen was puzzled.

Shen Wanqing glanced back at him, and saw that Xu Shen really didn't seem to understand, so she retracted her gaze and continued to walk as she spoke: "The queen ant is the third state king, and when she usually acts, she will release her own scent, leaving traces in the ruins, and some ruins will follow these scent traces...... Do you know that the ruins will meet each other? ”

Xu Shen suddenly said, "You mean, the smell left by His Highness will attract some ruins, and they want to eat the queen ant?" ”

Shen Wanqing's expression was calm, and said: "That's right, although the deep ruins will have IQs that do not belong to humans, the pursuit of food will overshadow their sanity and make them more impulsive, and their self-control is much worse than that of humans, so even some B-grade ruins, the taste left by the queen ant will not help but be affected by appetite." ”

"Then why doesn't the queen cover up her scent?" Xu Shen wondered.

Shen Wanqing glanced at Xu Shen, "Do you wipe off your footprints at any time when you walk?" ”

"Uh......" Of course Xu Shen won't, he can do it, but he won't do it, because of trouble, unless the footprints will bring him great danger.

"Those ruins that are attracted are nothing to the queen ant, but they are quite tricky for us, and they will also destroy the Snow Palace, in short, the duty of our personal guards is to let His Highness worry." Shen Wanqing said.

Xu Shen has already understood.

But he had a different question in mind.

"Will the smell left by His Highness attract stronger ruins?" Xu Shen asked curiously.

Shen Wanqing said calmly: "Of course it will, but the A-level ruins are the same level of existence as His Highness, they will sense each other's strength, and they will also sense that this is His Highness's territory, and the top ruins are similar to the lone tiger, in order to maintain their own territory, they also understand what kind of attack they will suffer if they invade other people's territories." ”

Xu Shen's face was strange, what I wanted to ask was...... What about the ruins beyond the A-class?

Are they attracted by the scent of the queen ant and wander down to feed?

"If you're hungry, there will be ruins that come to the shallow depths to feed." Maeve seemed to see his thoughts through Xu Shen's expression, and replied close to Xu Shen's ear.

Xu Shen felt that his ears were a little itchy, and although they didn't touch each other, he understood that this was his own psychological effect.

"The queen ant...... The flavor is still in the germination stage. Maeve chuckled, but her eyes showed a little appetite.

Xu Shen's heart was awe-inspiring.

In this way, the stronger the cultivation, the more your own aura is revealed, the more you will be noticed by the deep ruins?

Stronger...... Got tastier too?

"Your Highness usually comes here to read, so the residual smell in this study will also attract ruins, don't be careless." Shen Wanqing reminded Xu Shen.

The study looked very peaceful, not at all like a dangerous place, but Shen Wanqing had already experienced two battles here.

Xu Shen nodded, his eyes became solemn, and he patrolled around.

The study has three floors, the area of each floor is huge, and the bookshelves are heavy.

Only a few bookshelves have dust on them.

Xu Shen swept the names of these books and found that each bookshelf was classified, and the most classified was the detective story bookshelf.

The Vanishing Third Room

"Ellen's Toys"

Don't write fill-in-the-blank questions

The Wall

……

Xu Shen read them one by one, all of them are reasoning story books.

Soon, the first floor was turned, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Xu Shen followed Shen Wanqing to the second floor.

"We don't have to patrol the third floor, there are many top-secret items collected by the queen ant, and outsiders are forbidden to enter." Shen Wanqing said.

Xu Shen nodded and looked at the second floor, which was also large, there were just as many bookshelves here, and the light was blocked by the bookshelves, and the bookshelves looked a little dark with each other.

Xu Shen saw that Shen Wanqing had been keeping the ruin eye open and closed, which would consume the ruin power, but for the two states, maintaining it for a day was enough to afford.

Therefore, the inspection of the guards is also considered a physical work.

“!”

Xu Shen followed behind Shen Wanqing, bypassing a bookshelf, and suddenly paused slightly.

Well, the normal update was restored, but it was not fully restored, 20 minutes late......
