Section 140 Star Eater
This eerie space exudes a palpitating aura everywhere.
Lance was no stranger to this kind of aura, and with his mental power, he could only feel it when he was in a state of extreme danger.
There is no doubt that the decisive place chosen by the Crimson Scorpion for the Pop Chamber of Commerce floatship will be a tomb - or so it is.
"What the hell are these goddamn robbers trying to do?"
Lance took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind.
He didn't turn on the chameleon form now, but used the invisibility cloak provided by the Pop Chamber of Commerce to get close to this huge space.
As far as the ground is concerned, it's also quite uneven, and not only is the area rocky, but it also leaks some unfathomable holes from time to time.
Lance couldn't be sure where these gaps and loopholes led, the only thing he knew was that once he fell in, there should be no good end.
The Invisibility Cloak is ineffective, but it is more convenient, and Lance must be more careful with his actions - especially if he finds traces of the Crimson Scorpion on the high platform ahead.
Their numbers didn't seem to be large, and it was possible that Lance and the others' raid plans were interfering with their progress - Gianna had left with a total of ten men, so there were only five or six people left.
The other five scarlet scorpion wizards seemed to be guarding the man in the center.
Keeping his guard sufficient, Lance leaned closer.
From this angle, he can clearly see the other party's face and every movement.
It was a man with an extremely pale face, and he carried a long magic flute in his hand. Whenever a demon hunter arrives at the place, which he might call a "nest", he puts this long magic flute to his mouth and plays a melodious tune.
When he played the flute, he pressed his hands on the flute, and Lance could even see the green tendons on his skin.
"Piper......"
Lance knew that there was a kind of wizard in this world who used witchcraft to incorporate witchcraft into musical instruments. It's just that these wizards are quite rare, and I didn't expect to meet one in the crimson scorpion's lair. For this type of person, the wizarding world has its own specific name. For example, the profession of this guy in front of him should be [Piper].
For the piper. Their flutes are life-threatening, and if they lose their flute, they lose their best means of casting spells, and of course, the piper usually has a spare flute. But the spare one is both in the hand-making dù and in the witchcraft effect. It's definitely not as good as the original.
Lance observed. When the Piper plays the Magic Flute, the Demon Hunters will have an involuntary twitch.
"They are resisting the piper's control...... But it failed. ”
Lance secretly analyzed in his heart.
Because after a while, the convulsions of these demon hunting spiders ceased. Entered a state of being controlled by the magic voice.
They seemed reluctant to go deep into the "lair", but the Piper's orders were something they had to do, so they dragged the floatboats and climbed the rock wall carefully.
Soon, a total of eight floating boats were charged against the stone wall.
"There are four more floatboats...... Lance was secretly anxious, he couldn't get in touch with the first float because of the distance, and he didn't know how the guys were executing according to their plan.
He took out the slate, and the red dots on the slab were all gone—meaning that all four of them had discovered their little trick.
It's hard to say what happened after that.
At this time, Lance suddenly thought of a possibility in his heart-
"What if the two floatboats of the Wave Pop Chamber of Commerce chose to abandon the rest of the floats and leave the slalom trail directly after getting the map?"
As soon as this thought came to him, Lance couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.
He had considered many possibilities, but he had forgotten that there was such a layer.
Originally, he had done this to avoid the risk of a direct confrontation with Gianna - if he had known that the support of the First Floatship would come so quickly, he would not have gone in the opposite direction with them.
As a result, at this time, his situation is a little awkward.
He was only one person, and he couldn't kill even a single demon hunter, but as for the piper, he was sure to destroy them.
But that doesn't help. God knows what those demon hunters will do when they lose their controllers.
And he also has a natural curiosity about the strange stone wall.
The Crimson Scorpion is definitely not an ordinary group of robbers, they robbed these floats, they certainly did not rob these floats for money or any other wealth, they must have brought the floats to this place for their purpose.
"No, if Issa and the others really make the most ruthless decisions, I can't sit still. ”
Lance gritted his teeth and was about to approach the eighth float boat, trying to get in touch with Regis and the others above.
Who knew that at this moment, above the dome, there was a sudden panicked hissing!
It's a demon hunter spider dying and struggling!
Lance raised his head suddenly, and in the next second, he was cold-
I saw a small opening on the huge stone wall, which looked like the mouth of an ancient giant beast.
The Demon Hunter Spider, which was constantly dragging the Sixth Float Boat into the depths, had unfortunately stepped on that opening!
In the next second, a large amount of green liquid squirted out of it. There was even a part of the liquid that actually went up one of the feet of the demon hunting spider.
In the blink of an eye, its entire body was encased in a green liquid.
After three breaths, a ticking sound came from afar.
A green liquid mixed with a black carapace and red blood fell from above.
In the blink of an eye, the liquid drained, and above the dome, only a spider skeleton remained!
"Damn!" the piper's voice stopped abruptly.
Bang bang bang!
A large number of skeletons were scattered, and with the accidental death of the demon hunting spider, the sixth float also stuck to the spot. Those spider silks are also constantly losing their brilliance!
The wizards inside the Sixth Float had apparently seen this terrifying scene as well, but they didn't have time to cheer, and the pale green liquid had already swept down the spider silk towards their Float Boat!
"There's nothing we can do to stop it. A wizard comforted the piper. "It's good to have this float sacrificed in advance, it can also save you some energy. It's not your fault. ”
"I know. The pale piper said with some concern, "That's not what I'm thinking about. ”
"This guy, it's getting impatient, it's getting more and more active, and I really don't know if our ritual can really handle it. ”
The other four wizards were silent for a while, and the wizard who spoke first said with a wry smile: "This is Gianna's decision, the only thing we can do is to obey." ”
The Piper was a little irritated: "Gianna! It's Gianna again! This guy is always so self-righteous! Since she got that seed, she thinks she can control the universe!"
"But in fact, we need to deal with creatures that are more terrifying than the universe! Star Eater, oh my God! Even a piece of stomach is enough to kill all of us - the Crimson Scorpion and the Pop Chamber of Commerce are not enough to stuff its teeth!"
......
Beneath the high platform, a figure was sneakily eavesdropping.
"It's actually [Star Swallowing Demon]! Gianna's appetite is inevitably too big!"
When he heard the name, Lance was a little unfamiliar at first, but when he searched the fox's database, he was immediately taken aback.
It turned out that this stone wall, and even the entire rancid space, was originally the stomach of the Star Eater!
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the strange phenomena he had seen in the Valley of Divine Punishment - countless bones were glued to the stone wall, these bones did not have the slightest magical reaction, and seemed to be one with the stone wall.
Now that I think about it, it would make sense if the entire Valley of Divine Punishment, including the Whirling Trail, was part of a long-dead Star Eater. The bones were glued to the stone wall, because the stone wall itself was the stomach wall of the Star Swallowing Demon, and it may have been adhered to before it could be digested;
You must know that the terrifying legendary creature of the Star Eater is a nightmare for every universe!
Even a star beast that can inflict destructive damage on a plane is nothing more than a speck of dust in front of the terrifying Star Eater.
Once a Star Eater appears in a universe - if it is a juvenile Star Eater Demon, then all the legends, demigods, and even true gods will put aside a grudge and join forces to destroy it; If it's an adult Star Eater, then the only way is to escape.
But in front of the true King of Fear, running away is not so easy. The only ones who can escape the devouring of the Star Eater are the few who stand at the top of the food chain - the Eternal Time Dragon, the gods of the Heavenly Kingdom, the Super Archdemon, and so on.
Most mortals, I'm afraid that they don't even feel the slightest feeling, will be devoured.
And Lance is probably in the stomach of a dead Star Eater!
Although the outline of the stomach wall suggests that this terrifying creature was most likely killed at a young age, it is frightening that after all these years, this creature is still quite active.
The Crimson Scorpion's men had apparently discovered something, and they were trying to make a fuss with this passage of the Star Eater's stomach wall.
With the current activity of the Star Swallowing Demon's stomach wall, it was still not enough, so they had to awaken the instinct of this legendary creature.
They're taking risks.
"This force is not something they can control at all!" Lance's head was clouded, his heart beat faster, and he began to think of a way to get out. (To be continued......)
