Chapter 46: Aether Sensitivity

In the next two days, Ji Xinghuo and the four of them found several groups of stone sickles, the largest of which numbered hundreds, but there were no stone sickle giant rays.

At this time, they had penetrated more than 100 kilometers into the Peak Valley.

Attacks are becoming more and more frequent, both from monsters but more often with various poisonous snakes and insects.

Syllable!

The scales in the pool slapped him on the neck, and his palms were red, and there was a mosquito corpse the size of a thumb on it.

Half a second late, his neck was already swollen with a big bag.

"Poisonous mosquito ......"

Pond grinned and looked back at his teammates.

Ren Mian and Jiang Nan Caiyi tore open a piece of washing and changing clothes, wrapped their faces and necks tightly with strips of cloth, and sprayed insect repellent on their bodies.

Ji Xinghuo is also dressed in a similar outfit, with only a pair of eyes on his face.

However, the effect of this is very limited, most of the mosquitoes in the peak valley are not afraid of insect repellent, and ordinary cloth cannot stop their thirst for blood.

The valley is humid and muggy, like a big steamer, and the tighter it is wrapped, the hotter it gets.

Ji Xinghuo's bodies were all sticky and very uncomfortable.

Chi Zhong's scales relied on his thick skin and thick flesh, and wanted to be cooler, so he didn't wrap himself in cloth, and was bitten hundreds of times in two days, and the physique of the fungal giant made him recover quickly, but it was inevitable to leave a mark one by one, and he was also psychologically tortured.

But he has a good face, but he doesn't speak.

Until now, I finally couldn't hold it anymore, and I was about to speak, but I saw Ji Xinghuo make a gesture.

"Someone."

Ji Xinghuo pointed in one direction.

The teammates all looked over but found that the view was blocked by the woods, Ji Xinghuo continued: "Six people, about three hundred meters away from us, should also be a hunting team. ”

"Well, they've spotted us, too."

"I'm leaning in."

When Ji Xinghuo spoke, the formation of the four people was slightly scattered but kept close, Chi Zhonglu stood at the front, Ren Mian put his hand on his waist, and Jiang Nan Caiyi also drew a katana.

None of the people were particularly nervous.

I had already encountered a hunting party yesterday, and I staggered from a distance.

In the case where both sides have discovered each other's whereabouts and cannot sneak attack, there is no conflict of interest, and there is usually no conflict.

"They didn't look hostile, they just came over to make sure." Ji Xinghuo said.

Soon, six figures came out through the woods and stopped a hundred meters apart.

Both sides are looking at each other.

This hunting team is the same as themselves, everyone wraps themselves tightly, only their eyes are exposed, judging from the body shape, they are five men and one woman, each of them has black pupils, and it is likely that they are also Inhumans from the Asia-Pacific Community.

The only scale in the field that did not cover his face became the focus.

"Scales in the pool?"

Suddenly, a man on the opposite side called out his name.

Ji Xinghuo had already noticed this person, he was holding a traditional hunting bow, followed by a sturdy and tall pure black cheetah, obviously a hunter, with a keen sense of sight, hearing and smell, so he could find out that there were four of them, and he was the captain of this hunting team.

"You are?" Chi Zhonglu was a little puzzled, but he didn't hear it for a while.

"Holy shit, you kid forgot about me so quickly."

The stalker pulled down the strip of cloth on his face, revealing the face of a middle-aged man, and scolded: "Last month, you were robbed of women in the club with me, Lao Tzu saw that you were a good person, and I didn't fight with you, and I was still called a brother at that time, so I would have beaten you up if I knew it!" ”

"Aha......" Chi Zhongyan looked embarrassed, "Brother Xue, you cover your face and stand so far away, my eyes are not good, so I didn't recognize it immediately, my fault." ”

Seeing that Xue Yi was still not very happy, he hurriedly said: "Next time I go back, I will invite Brother Xue to drink, Secret Window No. 9, and I will cover the expenses of the whole audience." ”

"It's sincere."

Xue Yi's expression softened, and then he looked at Ji Xinghuo and the others, "Are they your teammates?" ”

"Yes." Ikechu Scales nodded, but didn't mean to introduce.

Both sides covered their faces and did not show their true faces.

Xue Yi didn't want to introduce his teammates, and suddenly asked, "Chi Zhongfang, didn't you come to the Peak Valley to hunt the Stone Sickle Giant Ray?" ”

"Also?" The scales in the pool have captured the keyword.

Both of them changed their faces and suddenly fell silent.

Ji Xinghuo glanced at Ren Mian beside him, the thinking necklace had been stimulated, and said in his heart: "Sister Ren, your news channel doesn't seem to be very secret......"

"Hmm." Ren Mian snorted lightly, "Xiao Chi, where did you get the news from them?" ”

"Brother Xue, how do you know that there is a stone sickle giant in the Peak Valley?" Pond scales immediately asked.

"When I set off, it is estimated that half of the hunting team in the Eastern Xia District knew about it." Xue Yi didn't hide it, "I don't know where the news came from, on the way here, I have already met three or four teams, all of which are coming for the stone sickle giant dragon." ”

Speaking of this, he snorted, "There are so many teams that none of them are easy to mess with, they must run for nothing, and they can only try their luck." ”

"I see." The scales in the pond pretended to have just arrived, "We didn't get anything either." ”

Xue Yi had no doubts.

There is no conflict between the two sides, but they are also competitors, and they are ready to separate after a few simple exchanges, "Then we will each rely on our own abilities." ”

"Good luck to Brother Xue."

Chi Zhongliang waved his hand and watched Xue Yi lead his team away.

Ji Xinghuo and the four of them walked in the other direction, and after confirming that the other party was beyond the magnetic field induction, he made a safe gesture.

"Our trip should be empty."

Ren Mian opened his mouth and said: "Generally, this kind of news that is widely circulated is deliberately released by people with intentions, and the purpose is nothing more than two: either you want to borrow a knife to kill people, use other teams to weaken the stone sickle giant ray, and make a profit for yourself; Or, there is no stone sickle at all, and the people who spread the news are just trying to trick the enemy out of Olympia and secretly set up an ambush and sneak attack. ”

Ji Xinghuo couldn't help but think that Sister Ren got the news a few days earlier than others, could it be that she was targeting her?

Ren Mian seemed to have guessed Ji Xinghuo's thoughts, shook his head and said, "If it's the second possibility, the target is not us." ”

"Why?" Ji Xinghuo asked.

"My enemies will not use such troublesome means, they will do it directly in Olympia." Ren Mian said lightly.

Ji Xinghuo was shocked.

it!

What is Olympia?

In the Asia-Pacific Community alone, there are at least thirty resident legendary Inhumans, and General Hawke, who is responsible for guarding Olympiap, is a king-level Inhuman, and he is given the title of "Champion Hou"!

Those who dare to do it directly in Olympia are at least legendary Inhumans, right?

And it's "them", more than one!

Chi Zhonglu and Jiang Nan Caiyi were also taken aback by the information revealed in Ren Mian's words, they looked at each other, and Chi Zhonglan's voice was a little dry, "Sister Ren, who is your enemy?" ”

"I won't tell you just yet." Ren Mian's tone was relaxed and full of confidence, "Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you." ”

Ji Xinghuo's heart relaxed.

One is to believe in Ren Mian, and the other is to believe in yourself. He turned on the magnetic field sensing at all times, and did not find anyone following or spying on him.

"Sister Ren, are we going to continue to look for the Stone Scythe Giant Ray?" Ike Zhongyan asked.

"Continue, of course." Ren Mian analyzed: "Some people think that the fisherman is more likely to make a profit, and if we are lucky, we may be able to take the lead." However, if things don't go right, we'll immediately retreat and return to Olympia. ”

For the next few days, the team wandered around the valley.

However, apart from harvesting a few xenomorphs, the stone sickle giant was not found, but several other hunting teams were encountered, both from the Asia-Pacific Community and other countries.

More and more people are getting the news.

Ren Mian decided to look for a few more days and go back, not wanting to waste any more time.

Day 10.

Ji Xinghuo suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky.

There was a huge rock suspended in the sky, the shape was very irregular, like a potato with sharp lines, wide horizontally, short up and down, the widest place was more than 100 meters, trees and weeds grew on it, vines hung down from the edge, and the whole rock gently fluttered with the wind, casting a shadow.

It is a small hanging mountain.

The number of hanging mountains in the Thousand Peaks Abyss Forest is extremely large, the largest can be tens of thousands of meters, and the medium one is also thousands of meters, all of which are occupied by the Heavenly Feather Royal Court and built as cities, with a total of more than a thousand.

The rest of the hanging mountains are relatively small and scattered all over the place.

There are many in the valley of the peaks, but all of them are small hanging mountains, some of which are anchored to the ground by thick vines, and the stone sickle group climbs up along the vines, and occupies the mountain as the king.

However, there is no owner in front of me.

Because it is not connected to the ground, the position is constantly moving.

"Starfire, what do you think it's for?" The scales in the pool raised their heads.

This hanging mountain doesn't seem to be anything special, and these days I have encountered several bigger ones, and I have not found much.

"There's something up there."

Ji Xinghuo pointed and said suspiciously: "But I don't know what ...... is"

Magnetic field sensing uncovered a natural cave on the side of the Hanging Mountain, obscured by large expanses of plant vines.

The magnetic field in the cave is very strange, and the magnetic field lines actually form a very regular vortex, not like a biomagnetic field, but as if there is life.

Ji Xinghuo had never seen it, and he couldn't tell the difference for a while.

Chi Zhongyan's eyes lit up when he heard this, he now trusts Ji Xinghuo's perception very much, Ji Xinghuo said that there are good things, it is likely to be true.

"Let's go up and have a look!"

Ren Mian nodded in agreement.

However, when everyone looked at the hanging mountain more than 300 meters above the ground, they were a little troubled. They can't fly, so how can they climb up?

"I'll give it a try." Ji Xinghuo immediately thought of a way.

He took out the nanorope and chose the heaviest arrow to tie the rope to the end of the arrow and hold it firmly in place.

The nanorope is very thin and light, more than a thousand meters long, and it must be long enough.

The problem is that it is very difficult to shoot the arrow into the hanging mountain and get stuck.

Ji Xinghuo did not shoot directly below the Hanging Mountain, but walked more than two hundred meters away, which could reduce the influence of gravity and let the arrow shoot farther, he aimed diagonally at the sky, and the aperture in his eyes flashed slightly, opening Vientiane Senluo.

His arrows moved back and forth, as if looking for a suitable place to shoot.

Suddenly, an arrow was fired.

The arrows soared into the air, and the long nanoropes resembled a tail, which slowed down as it rose in height.

"It's going to fail, but you can try a few more times." Chi Zhonglu looked at the trajectory of the arrow, obviously out of reach of the Hanging Mountain, and was falling.

The next second, he was stunned.

The arrow was entangled in a vine that was falling from the mountain.

Ji Xinghuo grabbed the nanorope with both hands and shook it skillfully, and immediately got entangled with the vines, pulling it a few times, and it was very firm.

"Is that okay?" Pool Scales was dumbfounded.

Ji Xinghuo took the nanorope back to the bottom of the hanging mountain and said, "I'll go up first." ”

The nanorope is very thin, only three millimeters in diameter, and can support several tons of weight, but it may cut your hands when you exert force, and Ji Xinghuo wears gloves to solve this problem.

He wraps the rope around the palm of his hand twice, pulls his body up a little higher, and then wraps the rope around the rope with another hand, alternating upwards.

When I was halfway up, the whole person was suspended in the air, and the wind shook it gently.

This made the teammates below pinch a cold sweat when they saw it.

Fortunately, Ji Xinghuo quickly climbed to the top, grabbed the vines and continued to climb, reaching the top of the Hanging Mountain. Then it was easy, Ji Xinghuo asked his teammates to tie the rope around his waist, and then directly dragged them to the mountain one by one, and finally put the rope up to avoid accidents.

"Where are you talking about?" Chi Zhonglan asked eagerly.

"Follow me."

Ji Xinghuo led his teammates through the top of the mountain, where the woods were no different from the ground, and there were no traces of other animals except birds and birds.

He came to the other side of the hanging mountain, climbed down more than ten meters along the vines, and turned over the weeds to reveal a hole.

The three of them followed in.

This is a natural rock cave, the area is dozens of square meters, three or four meters high, the light in the cave is dim, when they came in, they alarmed a group of bats, and they flew out in a burst.

Ji Xinghuo stood in the middle of the cave.

In front of him, a stalactite hung down from the top of the cave, forming a shoot-like stone tip on the ground, and the two were facing each other vertically, and the tips were only about ten centimeters apart to join together.

In this ten-centimeter void, there is a ball of light.

The light is faint, like fireflies, but it is also pure.

At the center of the light source was a tiny crystal, irregular oval, the size of a mung bean, that hovered there and flickered lightly every few seconds.

Pond Scale's eyes widened, and he couldn't see anything after observing it for a few seconds.

"Is this a strange thing?"

He asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

There are many strange things in the astral plane, some are born naturally, and some are born of life, and the expansion of strange things is one of them, and there are many other treasures with magical functions.

Ji Xinghuo saw a smile in Ren Mian's eyes and asked, "Sister Ren recognizes this thing?" ”

Ren Mian nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a naturally born xenomorph, too sensitive." ”

"Huh?" The scales in the pool were disappointed.

What kind of priceless treasure did he think it was, but it was just an ether-sensitive xenomorph.

Aether Sensitivity is a premium ability, but it's the most valuable of the premium abilities, and even more expensive than the premium ability.

It can increase the upper limit of Inhuman's star power and increase the speed of star power recovery, which is equivalent to improving the efficiency of cultivation, and it is very sensitive to the distribution and flow of etheric energy.

A lot of career templates are ether-sensitive and very sought-after.

There are a wide range of sources of ether sensitivity, but naturally born is extremely rare, so the scales in the pool are not recognized for a while.

However, no matter how rare it is, it's just a good ability.

When I first saw this xenomorph, I was looking forward to being infinitely high, but now I know that it is just a high-quality ability, and the huge sense of frustration makes everyone very disappointed.

"No matter how you say it, it can be worth more than two million, which is equivalent to the money you picked up for nothing."

Ji Xinghuo laughed, stepped forward and gently grabbed the crystal in the center of the light source.

As it moved, the light quickly dimmed, turning into an inconspicuous white crystal, like a piece of quartz.

Suddenly, the information interface popped up in front of my eyes.

[Xeno: Aether Sensitive]

[Grade: High Quality]

[Fusion success rate: 100%]

[Upgradeability: Yes]

Ji Xinghuo's eyes were slightly stunned, and the success rate of fusion was 100%!
