Chapter 241: Hooked

The brown-haired dwarf is named One-Eyed Jayne.

His left eye was blinded by the beast, and it was inlaid with a faintly glowing glass orb.

Now he was sweating profusely in pain, staring at the phantom-like spirit floating in the air in front of him with his only remaining eyes, and then at the skeleton wearing a red turban, and his thoughts raced for a moment.

"We're hired guards by the archaeological team, who are you!?"

The other party crossed the tripwire and magic trap he had placed in front of the door, obviously coming prepared.

"He said he was a bodyguard hired by the archaeological team."

Dai Lin turned back to Teacher Xia and said.

Bodyguard?

Bao Nima's dart!

Teacher Xia pressed the dagger, he only hated that his vocabulary was not enough.

He didn't know how to spell the academic term "Space Steady-State Observation Device", and the player's black word "sapper eye" couldn't be understood by the other party.

So he could only dry out a sentence:

"He lies, he has a problem"

"He said you lied!"

Dailin drifted to the other side with interest and leaned closer into Jayne's eyes.

The strangest thing about the other party's whole body is this glowing eye.

Jayne immediately replied in a broken lingua franca:

“…… I can read the lingua franca. ”

Dailin: "He said he ......"

Teacher Xia: "This does not need to be translated."

"Oh."

Dailin floated back and asked excitedly:

"So there's something wrong with his eyes?"

"Yes"

"Is that some kind of magic item? Why didn't you dig it out just now? ”

"Because there's no need, it's not a threat."

"How do you know everything, are you really just an undead?"

"I am"

The two of them started talking back and forth, completely throwing Jayne aside.

But the dwarf's mood was not at all relaxed at the moment.

The other party revealed half of his biggest secret in just a few words.

After all, even the rest of the camp thought his prosthetic eye was an ornament!

Who the hell is this......

Jayne hurriedly said: "I am really a guard, I have a license issued by the Glittering Gold Alliance, you can all open my things and look at them, I swear in the name of my father, I am definitely a serious guard!" ”

Teacher Xia: "Translator, translator, his accent is too heavy"

Dailin burst out laughing, then repeated Jayne's words.

Teacher Xia heard the word "Shining Gold Alliance" in the lingua franca for the first time, and asked specifically.

This is a pan-commercial organization established by the professional guild of the totem of the dwarves and the guild of archaeology, aiming to protect the traditional culture of the dwarves and independently develop the widely distributed relics in the southern mountains.

It's a pity that the organization has been severely suppressed by the Lion King Trading Company in the past, and has reached the point where it has to sell old antiques to make a living.

However, with the outbreak of the Void Calamity, the Lion King's men quickly retracted to Villitas and voluntarily relinquished their local trade, and the Glittering Gold Alliance was brought back to life.

Its current president is none other than the famous dwarven archaeologist Ian Hoddle.

- Sure enough, it's two or five boys.

Teacher Xia thought to herself.

Although he is not a plot party, he still knows all the members of the Shuojin Alliance.

In all the dungeons related to it, the humanoids are basically dwarves who have defected from the Glittering Alliance.

In addition to the high-level of this organization, the people below have basically infiltrated the lion king.

Now the so-called "giving up market share" is just letting the two or five boys who have been eating empty wages in the past to work.

As for the one in front of him, Mr. Xia vaguely remembered what his name was One-Eyed.

In the original plot, he was almost also on stage after the disaster broke out, and was a small leader in the Gullivern Mountain dungeon group.

The reason why I remember it is because the opponent dropped the "Sapper Eye".

This thing is used to detect rifts, and it is a must-have item after the update.

Most importantly, it's handsome!

This color is a little DIY, and it is a prosthetic eye that glows red!

When the time comes, the whole black trench coat and sunglasses, and then find a life player full of forging points to get a Winchester M1887 gun mold, a proper T-800!

"Who is your last home?"

He asked straight to the point.

The reason why he appeared here was because a day earlier, the Split-Toe Clan had received a mysterious commission.

A wounded griffin passes through a chasm hidden in the air and delivers a letter of entrustment signed "Hops" and some deposits to the Splittoe Clan.

The other party claims to be archaeological somewhere in this mountain, and the operation is coming to an end.

But he knew that there were multiple teams out there ambushing him, so he asked for help from the Zanlo.

If it was just like this, Teacher Xia and Arthur would not care, but would think that this dwarf was crazy and rushed to the doctor like this.

However, the deposit sent by the other party was actually the gold bar they spent not long ago, which is very interesting.

This is, after all, the legacy of the Golden Tooth.

Apparently, the guy named "Hops" deliberately recovered the item from the market, investigated its origin, and returned it to its users.

So, Mr. Xia decided to come here in person to see what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.

Faced with such a direct question, a trace of horror flashed in Jayne's eyes, and he immediately replied:

"I'm employed by Master Hargen of the Glittering Gold League, but I'm just a logistician who stays outside, I ...... Ahhh

Mr. Xia cut off his other two fingers.

One of his hands was bare.

"You still have five fingers."

Jayne gritted his teeth and said: "I'm really just a logistics staff, I don't even have the right to follow them into the ruins, if you have a grudge against Master Hargen, you shouldn't embarrass me as a little person!" ”

Although he couldn't hear it very clearly, he didn't need to translate Mr. Xia to know that he was hard-mouthed.

At this time, it's really hard to still concave people.

"There's a problem with your Charge Stone."

He simply opened up.

"You're the last survivor of the four camps on this mountain. I don't believe you ask her."

Jayne looked incredulous, but Dailin, who had been given a chance to speak, had already started to talk excitedly.

"He didn't lie to you, although the totem that glows white in your camp can defend against weak beasts, it is more like a tonic for powerful beasts.

"We have been to the first three camps, where the people have fallen, and they are under the control of strange beasts, attacking each other around the totem until the last man also falls.

"As for those of your men in this camp, ......"

She looked at Teacher Xia: "Well, they have all been killed by this guy, but they have shown signs of being controlled, you should be the mildest symptom - you should have had a nightmare just now, right?" ”

Jayne swallowed uneasily.

The insistence on his face was gone.

Yes, he did have a nightmare...... A long-lost nightmare.

Teacher Xia said in a timely manner:

"You are not the instrument, you are the bait of the feeding tool"

"The people above you know you can't deal with Halgen, that's why they do it."

Jayne was still hesitating when a low roar suddenly came from outside.

His soul trembled.

"Look at it."

Teacher Xia threw down a sentence and got out of the tent with a toilet bowl.

After confirming that he was really gone, Jayne trembled and picked up the severed finger on the ground, took off the ring and put it on his only remaining hand.

A healing glow emanated from the ring, his wound slowly scabbed, and his pale face improved.

He hurried to the door and peeked out.

A giant stilted spider slowly approached the Soul Alert Totem in the middle of the camp.

Its body is almost transparent, as if carved from crystal, not at all like a monster, but rather like a delicate work of art.

But as it got closer, Jayne could see its belly.

It was as if it was a pile of hideous and distorted faces, like ripples rippling in the water, which would disappear at any time and appear elsewhere in the blink of an eye.

There was no shortage of people he knew......

Jayne chuckled inwardly.

The guy ...... Didn't lie!

"Survivor ......"

An unfamiliar consciousness rudely squeezed into his thoughts, as if greeting him with food.

"Don't move, I'm coming for you......"

As if sensing him, the spider suddenly turned its head and crawled over quickly!

Fear and despair drowned Jayne like a tidal wave, and the will to survive made him desperately crawl backwards!

However, the hiss -

The tent was split in two by sharp spider legs, and the transparent spider feet with barbs were pinned around him like javelins.

To Jayne's horror, he found himself trapped in a cage.

His body was completely stiff, as if all his courage had been extinguished.

He could only watch as the other party's mouthparts unfolded, revealing the innermost chaotic gray vortex.

Then, his soul was pulled, the whole person was like falling into the clouds, and his consciousness became ethereal.

Just as he was about to fall, the spider let out a painful roar!

Suddenly I opened my eyes and saw a dagger stuck in the spider's belly.

The flesh there quickly withered and shriveled.

At the same moment, a figure carrying a silver basket jumped high, and the dark purple light covered the disgraceful weapon in his hand, and then stabbed into the monster's mouth!

For a moment, Jayne did feel a little sympathy for the monster.
