vs 85 Strange Trees and Eyeballs

Flying over the obstacles in the clouds, the two eagles split up, flying around the canyon on the ground and the peaks on either side.

After transforming into an eagle's body, Lance found that all but the main chip and the rest of the subchips were in a state where they could not be activated.

But fortunately, although there is no Eagle Eye assistance, the Eagle itself has a very good vision. He could clearly see the silent land, an open river slowly flowing out of the forest, through the misty little canyon, towards the mysterious east.

Except for the middle of the canyon, the rest of the place has an unobstructed view.

Lance knew that in the middle of the canyon was the White River Valley, the headquarters of the Flower Scorpion Society. According to the information in the hands of the Golden Lion, the outer defense measures of the Flower Scorpion Society have reached a threefold level, while the core defense mechanism is even tighter, and it needs to go through twelve rigorous procedures to reach the core area of the White River Valley.

"If Monica and little Solo are locked up in the deepest part of the valley, it's going to be trouble. Lance flapped his wings and flew quietly towards the nearby peak.

The valley is lined with rugged mountains and rocky mountains, with low peaks in the south and peaks reaching into the sky in the north.

Lance circled the southern peaks, and after finding nothing out of the ordinary, he flew north to join up with the eagles that Laughren had formed.

The two flew side by side, their sharp gaze searching for the anomalies of the northern peaks.

Soon, they saw countless protruding platforms halfway up the mountain, each with a hot air balloon on the edge. It is used by people coming and going. In terms of mana, these people are obviously first-level wizards, and they have no ability to use magic carpets, so they can only ride hot air balloons up and down, and at the junction of each platform and the mountain, there are many dark holes exposed.

The two looked at each other and immediately split up to investigate.

Not long after, high in the sky, the two stood on the magic carpet, exchanging information with each other what they had found.

"This mountain should be a real base of the Flower Scorpion Society, I circled it before. It was found that there were at least three hundred or more first-level wizards working in this base. They are very well guarded. "But it's not without good news—they haven't hollowed out the mountain. Build the base inside the mountain. Their real room is a half-cave, half-self-built building built next to the mountain, and if you want to investigate deeply, you can at least avoid a lot of trouble. ”

Laughlan squinted his eyes, perusing for something. Half a day. He spoke slowly, "I can feel their breath. I'd put a unique spell tracking mark on their mother and son that I had invented myself. You can't go wrong. They're on this mountain, in these buildings. ”

"But they're very well guarded, and they're quite strong in their alert capabilities. Lance said in a deep voice.

He was in the time of the previous reconnaissance. It was found that there were at least three squads of members of the Scorpion Society's law enforcement team patrolling around these real rooms, and every ten steps, there was a [police puppet].

This kind of puppet operates all the time, can verify the identity of everyone in its thirty steps vicinity, and if it can't provide the unique key of the Flower Scorpion Society, the alarm puppet will immediately let out a piercing scream.

In addition to this, Lauchren also discovered that there were at least three second-level wizards in this actual base!

"Two dead, these three guys are almost the top strength of the Scorpion Society. They didn't hide in the White River Valley, but on this mountain, they must have prepared something very important, such as that ceremony. Lauchren looked at the top of the mountain, where there was an open altar with a large number of sacrificial objects and twelve layers of ritual runes painted on the ground.

From his knowledge, he could only tell that it was a large-scale ritual about summoning evil spirits or demons.

Obviously, Monica and her children are the most crucial part of this ceremony, and may even play the role of sacrifices in this ceremony!

"We don't have much time to do it when the Void Star passes over Hydra in two days' time. "Once the ceremony begins, they will definitely be more guarded...... Even if they do it now, they won't relax. ”

"Next, I'm really going to ask you. The old man said to Lance seriously, "I will fully cooperate with you, and I hope that you can quickly sneak in with your unique talent stealth ability and find Monica and Little Solo." ”

Lance nodded, clutching a summons note that Laughran had given him earlier, and quietly landed in a desolate and remote place on the northern peak.

Stripped of all his clothes in the night breeze and stepping barefoot on the cold rocks, the complexion of his body began to change naturally, and he completely blended into the night and the rocks.

Although it wasn't the first time he had used a chameleon, Lance still felt a little uncomfortable. However, his mental strength was strong enough that he quickly diverted his attention from this aspect and began to figure out how to find Monica.

Lauchran's tracking mark could only give a vague direction, and there were at least twenty or so openings on the mountainside, and countless camps and tents built on protruding platforms. Lance doesn't have much time, and staying in the base for too long will greatly increase the chance of being discovered.

He marched through the rocks, vigilantly dodging two waves of patrols, and finally touched a smaller platform.

In addition to a dark hole, the platform also has three tall barracks. The barracks were brightly lit, and through the windows Lance could see that there were about seven or eight people working very busy.

Compared to a normal wizard hangout, it was more like a factory with an intensive processing industry that Lance had seen in his previous life, working all night to process delicate parts. It's just that the workers here are first-class wizards, and the objects they process in their hands are bottles of colorful potions, the purpose of which is unknown, but each bottle and test tube are marked with the words "extremely dangerous".

Bypassing the obstructive alarm puppets, Lance approached the barracks smoothly. It's just that this time. He was a little hesitant.

It was obvious that there was no one hiding in the three barracks, but if he went directly to the cave to find it, Lance felt that something was wrong.

Somehow, he looked at the black hole and felt an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart.

"Is there something?" Lance suppressed the fear in his heart and quietly leaned over.

The closer you get to the cave, the fewer the number of alarm golems and the less pressure Lance has. His attention was all on the front, but the eagle eye was not night vision after all, and he could only see a little outline.

He leaned against a rock. I thought about it. Or take out the Seal Ring.

"Whatever is in it, it's always a bad idea to venture out on your own. Now that I have this thing, let these gadgets explore it for me. ”

Thinking so, he immediately activated the runes on the sealing ring.

Not much. A dexterous black cat descended on Lance. Lance rubbed the black cat's neck. A dim window suddenly appeared in his mind. Through that window, he could see a gray-black scene, which was the vision of the black cat.

Under the orders of Lance. The black cat slyly burrowed into the black hole and went all the way forward.

"It's so bright in the barracks, why is it so dark in the cave?"

With this question in mind, Lance carefully observed the structure of the cave. To his surprise, the walls of the caves were smooth and nothing else. Obviously, this was created by hand with witchcraft and machinery, and was not a naturally generated cave.

What is the Flower Scorpion Society trying to do by digging artificial caves here?

In the quiet of the cave, there is only the sound of the quiet wind flowing. The black cat went all the way deeper, looking around vigilantly.

Soon, something strange appeared in front of its eyes.

Outwardly, it is a stout branch, so thick that it occupies almost a third of the cave's space. The branch grew out of the belly of the mountain and rested quietly in the cave.

The branches were turquoise and very rough in appearance, and the only thing that struck Lance was that the shape of the branch was too clean - no extra branches, no branches and no buds, not even ants and bugs.

And the moment he saw this tree, Lance only felt that his heart was beating faster, and that sense of fear became much stronger.

"I'm afraid of a tree? No...... Not me. ”

Lance suddenly realized—"This is the love of the demon's heart...... Could it be that this tree is something dangerous?"

At this time, the black cat had already jumped onto the branch.

Lance's eyes widened, and in the next second, he clearly saw countless faint white dots suddenly lit up in the darkness!

On the thick branches, huge eyes appeared.

Each eye was attached to the branch, the whites of the eyes protruded, the eyeballs narrowed, and it seemed that they were staring at themselves with a cold gaze.

The black cat was obviously startled by this sudden change, and just as it was about to jump back, there was a low beastly roar from the belly of the mountain, and the thick branches seemed to come to life suddenly!

Giggles!

An eerie laugh sounded in the cave, and the nearest eye suddenly swam on the surface of the tree, and the black cat's body suddenly froze.

The white eyeballs kept shaking, and suddenly the whites of the eyes were attached to the feet of the black cat, and then the eyelids opened and closed, as if sucking jelly, and a powerful force attacked!

In the blink of an eye, the black cat's skin was torn away by the strange force and swallowed into the eyeballs, revealing blood-red muscles and white bones.

The black cat screamed violently, and soon, the rest of its body was swallowed involuntarily!

The eyeballs that had swallowed an entire black cat burped contentedly, and gradually sank on the surface of the bark. After a while, the branch was restored to its original state.

Outside the cave, Lance's face was pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat!

Until the moment the black cat died, he could see the qiē in the cave clearly.

"This thing is really evil!?" he thought with some trepidation.

However, at this moment, he suddenly saw that in the shadow of the cave, a short branch was stretching out at an even speed.

Soon, the branches left the cave and crawled towards Lance and the barracks, growing faster and faster.

As soon as Lance's head was covered, he pulled his legs and ran. (To be continued......)
