Chapter 78: Wizard of Treachery
"If you get a psionic xenomorph, it will naturally be Sister Ren's."
Ji Xinghuo and the three of them have no objection to this, Ren Mian has helped them so much, now that she is in need, she will definitely do her best.
However, Ji Xinghuo had a question, "Sister Ren, how do you know that there is a toad spirit in the Deep Rock Rift?" ”
"I bought the news from Wanglongtai." Ren Mian replied.
"Is it reliable?"
"There is a high probability that it is reliable." Ren Mian's eyes showed a little coldness, "Wanglongtai doesn't dare to lie to me, their reputation has always been very good." ”
"I'm afraid they'll sell the news to someone else." Ji Xinghuo disagreed.
This kind of information transaction, in addition to the cost of obtaining information at the beginning, is followed by a million profits, sold once is sold, sold a hundred times is also sold, of course, it must be sold to a few more customers, and earn back more money.
"It's a possibility." Ren Mian groaned a few times, "After dawn, we will enter the deep rock rift valley and explore the city of the stone lizardmen. First of all, confirm whether the toad spirit is still there. She looked at Ji Xinghuo, "Xinghuo, it's all up to you." ”
Ji Xinghuo nodded heavily.
A few hours later, it was hot shortly after dawn.
The combination of two factors makes them generally only active in starry and dark nights, and will not easily leave the rift during the day.
The four approached the rift and surveyed the terrain.
This huge rift valley, which is more than 100 kilometers long, is different from other places, and the surrounding ground is bare and rocky, and there is not much vegetation, which looks bare, which is not conducive to concealment.
The widest part of the rift valley is more than ten kilometers, and the strange rocks in it are craggy, and countless cliffs and cliffs form an incomparably complex terrain, like a huge labyrinth, bottomless, and cold wind and fog blowing out of tunnels and dark rooms, which makes people daunting.
"Let's go inside."
Ren Mian led the team into the rift valley, and Ji Xinghuo quickly found the traces of someone walking by.
He recognized them as the footprints of the Lizardmen, stretching deep into the Rift, "Follow the trail and you should find your way to the Lizardmen's city." ”
"Starfire, you're here to show the way."
"Okay."
Ji Xinghuo has always turned on the magnetic field induction, in fact, he can find the right path without tracking his footprints.
After walking for more than an hour, the team has gone deep into the middle of the rift valley, thousands of meters from the ground, looking up can only see dim light, the sky is blocked by large cliffs and strange rocks, the temperature drops, walking in it is like shuttling in caves.
Suddenly, Ji Xinghuo made a gesture to stop his teammates.
Ren Mian stimulated the thinking necklace, and a voice sounded in his head: "What's wrong?" ”
"Someone."
Ji Xinghuo's expression was a little strange, "It's earthlings, they are a hunting team, there are five in total, and all of them should be super inhumans." ”
The faces of the three teammates were all wonderful.
Ren Mian snorted in his heart, "You said yes, Wanglongtai sold the news of Toad Ling to others." ”
Then he asked, "They didn't find us, did they?" ”
"Nope."
Ji Xinghuo shook his head, this team is more than 700 meters away, the four of them did not speak, they all pasted "sweat-absorbing orchid leaves" and sprayed deodorant, the other party could not see, hear, smell, and was advancing in the rift, and did not realize that they had been discovered.
"Sister Ren, what should we do?" "They seem to be familiar with the Rift Valley and should have arrived here before we do," he asked. ”
Ren Mian thought for a few seconds, "Follow them and act when the opportunity arises." ”
"Okay."
Ji Xinghuo's magnetic field induction locked on these five people, far away, maintaining a distance of six hundred meters to seven hundred meters.
The team moved fast through the rift, but it didn't emit a sound wave.
"Phantomist?"
Ji Xinghuo quickly saw the clue.
There is an illusionist among the five people, who is able to cover the movements of the whole team at all times and absorb sounds, which is much more subtle than a single phantom orb.
Soon after, the team in front slowed down, became cautious, and lurked in a corner without moving.
Ji Xinghuo followed a little forward before he knew what was going on.
A few hundred meters away there is a tall hole, apparently dug out by hand, and the hole is surrounded by huge boulders, which is difficult to find. The entrance to the cave is deep, and there is a team of stone lizardmen guarding it, which is supposed to be the passage to the stone lizardman city.
Ji Xinghuo conveyed this information to his teammates.
"They're going in."
In the magnetic field induction, Ji Xinghuo saw that the body of an alien had changed drastically, his height had grown from about one meter eighty-five to two meters tall, a big tail had grown from his back, his hands had also turned into claws, his body was a little rickety, and his appearance was exactly the same as that of a stone lizardman.
"Treacherous Wizard!"
Ji Xinghuo was taken aback, there was actually a treacherous wizard in this team.
It's an extremely rare class template with three core abilities.
They are Inorganic Change, Organic Restoration, and Mimic, with the first two being overrun and the latter being superb.
The body of the treacherous wizard is ever-changing, not only can he change into the appearance of other humans and other races through genetic information, but also can turn into various inanimate objects, such as stones, flowing water, tables and chairs, etc., and the way of fighting is very strange and unguardable.
I saw this treacherous wizard swaggering towards the entrance of the cave, and when the stone lizard guards saw him, they were not guarded, but only opened their mouths to ask.
The treacherous wizard didn't answer, and as he approached the guards, his hands suddenly turned into sharp blades, one left and one right, and he cut off the heads of two guards.
At the same time, his body turned into a large cloud of smoke, enveloping the remaining stone lizardmen.
They immediately choked and couldn't make a sound.
This smoke is obviously highly poisonous, penetrating through the nostrils of the stone lizardmen, accelerating the poisoning, and the smoke is like an invisible hand, choking their necks, wrapping around their bodies, and killing them silently.
In just a few seconds, an entire team of stone lizard guards was killed.
Ji Xinghuo was breathtaking.
This kind of murder method, even if you know in advance that he is a treacherous wizard, it is difficult to guard against.
After the Wizard kills the guards, his teammates emerge from their hideout and enter the hole.
"Let's go in too."
Ji Xinghuo and the four of them approached the entrance of the cave, Ren Mian saw the corpse of the stone lizard on the ground, and her face changed slightly, she had already heard Ji Xinghuo say that this was a tricky wizard.
"It's not an easy team." Chi Zhonglu said in his heart.
"Just a treacherous wizard can't be underestimated." Ren Mian was still very calm, "However, there has been more than a year of news from Toad Ling, and Wanglongtai should not only be sold to us and the team in front, there is not enough preparation, even Toad Ling can't be found, and it should still be there now." ”
She paused, "That's a good thing. ”
Ji Xinghuo guessed her thoughts, "Sister Ren wants to use them as bait?" ”
"That's right." Ren Mian smiled, "The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind." This time, let's just be a yellow finch. ”
As they spoke, the four of them had already walked into the passage behind the entrance of the cave.
The passage was winding all the way down, and there were many forks and guards along the way, but they were all cleared by the team ahead.
Ji Xinghuo and his party followed behind them, gradually deepening.
After a moment, it suddenly dawned on me to enter a huge cavern, nearly two hundred meters high, with huge pillars or rocks supporting the dome in the middle, dimly lit, looking from the side of the entrance to the opposite side, a full distance of three or four kilometers.
Ji Xinghuo looked into the distance, and the passage he was in was only one of the entrances to the cave.
There are more than a dozen more passages like this.
There are countless nests built in the cave, all of which are excavated from the original huge rock, high and low, orderly, like artificially dug beehives, but the people who live in it are not bees, but stone lizardmen, like a huge city under the city.
The dim light had little effect on the Vientiane Star Pupil, and Ji Xinghuo looked at the opposite side of the cave, where there was a hundred-meter-high giant arch.
Another cave can be seen behind the arch.
It is such interconnected caves that constitute the city under the stone lizard.
They also live underground on their home planet "Night Star", and their technology is not developed, and it can even be said that they are primitive and backward, so they were defeated by the expeditionary force of the Dagon and submitted to the rule of the Dagon.
By this time, the team in front had already gone far.
They asked the illusionist to cover his form, carefully avoiding the stone lizardmen in the cavern, and headed for the arch.
Ji Xinghuo saw through their silent illusion at a glance.
This was the first time he had directly observed the hunting party, all five of them were male, and the Inhuman class could be guessed from their outfit and outfit.
The illusionist and the treacherous wizard already know.
The remaining three, a tall man with a spear on his back, were supposed to be martial artists.
There was also a heavy full-body plate armor, like a mobile humanoid fortress, holding a giant axe, weighing at least two or three hundred kilograms, but the pace was light and agile, as if the heavy armor giant axe on his body had no weight and was made of plastic foam.
"Gravistar!"
Ji Xinghuo's heart is open, and only gravity fighters have this ability to lift weights like light.
The last Inhuman class is also recognizable, wearing streamlined soft leather armor with elasticity that fits the body, weapons are two short swords, and combat boots on the feet are also specially made super equipment, all designed to reduce air resistance at high speeds.
"He's a flyer."
Treacherous Wizard, Martial Artist, Phantom Master, Gravitational, Flying Step.
The professional configuration of this team is very unreasonable, it is obviously improvised, and it does not look at the configuration, but only the personal strength of the members.
As long as the strength is strong enough, many problems can be solved.
It can also be seen from the color of their skin that these five people, in addition to the gravity man who is wrapped in heavy armor, two are yellow, one white and one black.
This kind of multinational combination rarely lasts for a long time, not to mention, all five people are super aliens.
They were a makeshift team for the Toad Spirit.
"Where's the Toad Spirit?"
Ji Xinghuo looked at the direction they were heading and asked Ren Mian in his heart.
"Over there." Ren Mian pointed to the arch on the opposite side of the cave, "The toad spirit is in the deepest part of the stone lizard city, let's follow and let them explore the way ahead." ”
