"How's the setup?"

"Envoy Wu, everything is ready and ready to be launched at any time. ”

"Good. The man in black nodded and said, "There are so many mercenaries outside, and many of them are tricky, all of which cheer me up." The lair of the poisonous ruins was discovered before, and the gang of cannon fodder cultists who were harmed were discovered in advance, which has already made the upper side very dissatisfied. Now that we're at the final juncture, don't let anything go wrong. Otherwise, no one can afford to blame Sanban Street and the fortress!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the man in black mention Sanban Street, the bodies of the two subordinates who came to report trembled involuntarily, obviously very afraid.

"It's good that you know the result of failure~"

The man in black snorted, waved his hand, and motioned for the two to go down first, and then walked to the top of the stone tower that had collapsed nearly halfway to the highest part of the Spirit Ruins, looking at the entire ruins, and whispered with doubts for a long time: "After finishing this vote, you should be able to transfer out...... But what is the result of doing this?"

I don't understand.

After a sigh, the old man in black disappeared into the darkness.

.........

"Someone's coming, let's hide for a while. ”

Because of that accidental discovery, he and Chen Liu turned back and wasted a lot of time. It is normal for a mercenary to follow up in the same direction, and it is normal to catch up with them.

Originally, Lu Chengfeng didn't take the visitor to heart, and found a hidden ruin with Chen Liu to hide. After all, ruins are a place of right and wrong, and anyone you encounter may be an enemy, so it is naturally best to avoid trouble. But the problem is that just as the two of them hid, several figures hurried forward from behind the ruins. Although Lu Chengfeng didn't know the person who took the lead, the person next to him, Lu Chengfeng looked familiar.

The fifth-order swordsman of the Blood Knife Mercenary Squad, Su Ping!

Before this, the Blood Knife Squad had three fifth-order masters. However, while exploring other Spirit Clan ruins before, the Blood Knife Squad lost a fifth-order master. The Blood Knife himself touched the threshold of the sixth order again. As a result, Su Ping became the only fifth-order sword master in the Blood Knife Squad now.

Since he appeared, and followed the person in the middle as a deputy, Lu Chengfeng was naturally white, the identity of the middle-aged burly man.

It's a coincidence.

"It's a blood knife, yes!"

Chen Liu had seen the Blood Knife before, so he secretly glanced at it and confirmed Lu Chengfeng's speculation.

The Blood Knife obviously didn't know that his enemy was hiding nearby, so he just whispered a few words and hurriedly rushed forward with Su Ping and two other men. Obscured by ruins and lush woods, they were soon lost.

After confirming that a few people had left, Lu Chengfeng walked out with Chen Liu.

Chen Liu was a little puzzled by the appearance of the Blood Knife in the ruins, and said strangely: "At this time, shouldn't they still be in the camp near the main passage?"

"What's so strange about this?" Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "The Blood Knife Squad is not a big force in Kaiyang, and he alone can barely be regarded as a sixth order. As you can imagine, in this negotiation, oh no, it was a partition meeting, he had almost no right to speak. It is estimated that knowing this, he took advantage of the lack of discussion and prepared to enter the ruins in advance to search overnight. I reckon there are quite a few mercenary squads like them. ”

Chen Liu had already thought of it quickly after asking, and nodded: "I should not be reconciled, I want to try my luck." ”

"Let's go, follow them and see if there's a chance. "Lu Chengfeng's original plan was to wait for the cloudy day to be discussed and the Blood Knife team set off, and then quietly follow behind to look for opportunities. Unexpectedly, today they took the initiative to enter the ruins, which saved Lu Chengfeng trouble.

Tracking is a science, but Lu Chengfeng has not studied this much. Fortunately, in this ruin, there are too many blind spots in the line of sight, as long as you are not stupid enough to swagger behind, it is easy to hide your body shape and ensure that you will not be discovered. Relying on the favorable terrain, the two chased Su Ping and the four of them all the way, and gradually approached the center of the ruins.

At this point, the shadow is more dangerous than the periphery.

Whether it is the demonic beast encountered, or the statue guard left by the spirit people, the strength is at least the fifth order. When passing through an archway, a sword statue patrolling by under the trend of the magic array had a strength close to the sixth order. Su Ping tried to sneak attack from behind with a sword, but was discovered by the sword statue, and actually shook Su Ping's long sword off with a backhand blow.

If it weren't for Su Ping's quick reaction and immediate flight back, I'm afraid his hand would be useless.

This kind of combat power is indeed a bit terrifying. The Blood Knife had to take action himself and fight the gray statue. Although the victory or defeat was not cloudy for a while, it gave Lu Chengfeng an excellent opportunity to observe the strength of the Blood Knife.

I have to say that as the captain of the Blood Knife Squad, the strength of the Blood Knife himself is indeed somewhat strong. After a few rounds, after getting familiar with the style of the sword statue, he saw the opportunity, and forcibly grabbed the sword statue with a soul devouring hand, and then slashed it out. Without waiting for it to make any resistance, the Blood Knife trotted forward two steps, and the Tai Knife in Pinto's hand jumped up with all his might, and unleashed a super-wide range of fifth-order sword skills—Mountain Collapse Strike!

From the atmosphere of the name of the sword technique, you can feel the horror of this blow.

The blood-colored fighting qi attached to the knife, and as it hit the ground, it sent out a full eight shockwaves in all directions. From a long distance, Lu Chengfeng could feel a slight tremor on the ground, not to mention the sword statue at the center of the mountain collapse. Almost instantly, the statue was knocked into the air, and the blood-colored shockwaves left deep scratches on its hard body.

"It's so strong!"

Chen Liu was shocked by the power of the mountain collapse, if he was a sword statue himself, it is estimated that he would be torn to pieces by the shock wave after this blow - he did not have a sturdy body like a sword statue.

"Fortunately, the current blood knife has not broken through to the sixth order!"

Lu Chengfeng looked at it for a moment and also came to a conclusion.

As a former quasi-ninth-order, Lu Chengfeng's vision is much stronger than Chen Liu's. Chen Liu could only see that the Blood Knife was very strong, but he was a little unsure of how strong it was, whether it was the peak of the fifth order or the sixth order. Lu Chengfeng could conclude that without the fury of the blood, he was indeed the peak of the fifth order.

However, it is difficult to say after the rampage.

Everyone knows that when a berserker is at his most powerful, he enters a state of madness after opening the blood rage. The gap in strength before and after it can sometimes even widen to the point of a single order. At present, the blood knife has not been fully exerted, and Lu Chengfeng can only make such a reserved conclusion.

The battle continues.

The sword statue has a hard body, and it is not afraid of ordinary attacks. If it was a living demonic beast, I am afraid it would have been taken down by the blood knife a long time ago. Rao was so, and the wounds on the sword statue's body were also increasing, which had already affected its movements and attacks. After a ghost slash severed the left arm of the sword statue, the remaining guard of the Spirit Clan was at the end of its mission.

Su Ping also made up for it with a sword at a critical moment and completely killed the statue guard.

"Another little delay. ”

The blood knife spat on the ground, muttered impatiently, and continued to move forward with Su Ping and his men. But Lu Chengfeng noticed that the Blood Knife took out a map-like thing at this time, which seemed to be against the road. After careful comparison for a while, he led the people to move on.

This action made Lu Chengfeng care.

"Where did he get the map?" Chen Liu also saw that action, and wondered, "Could it be that he came here before?" Perhaps, the two highly decomposed corpses we found were left by them before?"

"Possibly. Lu Chengfeng nodded, but immediately found that this didn't seem reasonable: "They have auctioned a ring of the Spirit Clan at an auction before, and they have indeed been to the ruins of the Spirit Clan. However, this is not the only one with the remnants of the Spirit Race. Moreover, they didn't have to dispose of the corpses in the ruins. If someone else comes with them, the ruins will be discovered as well, and what can be hidden after disposing of the corpses inside?"

Besides, the time is not right!

The ring of the Song of Spiritual Energy was auctioned not long after Lu Chengfeng arrived in Kaiyang. It's been months now. And the corpse of this spirit relic was about a month ago.

When Lu Chengfeng said this, Chen Liu also felt unreasonable: "They are just mercenaries seeking money, they have no other intentions, even if others know that they have been here, there is really no need to make another move." ”

"If you want me to say, that map or something, maybe the Blood Knife team found it last time they were exploring another Spirit tribe. Lu Chengfeng pondered for a while, but came up with a possibility: "However, that map is only a structural map of this ruin, and it does not mark the specific location of this ruin." Although they knew a lot about the ruin, they didn't know where it was in the Endless Forest, so they couldn't figure it out. It wasn't until the disciples of the Earth Soul Sect leaked their secrets that they hurried over. ”

This inference is reasonable, and it is very close to the truth.

"If that's ......" Chen Liu was suddenly a little surprised, and lowered his voice: "Doesn't that mean that the Blood Knife Team knows where there is a treasure and is walking in that direction?"

Lu Chengfeng didn't answer, but a smug smile appeared on his face.

If it weren't for themselves, the Blood Knife Squad would indeed have discovered the good things in the Spirit Clan ruins with the map in hand, and then pretended to be nothing and retreated. But God doomed them to be unlucky, so these people ran into Lu Chengfeng. If he can't seize the opportunity to add some trouble to them, Lu Chengfeng will write his surname upside down!
