Chapter 867: Dragon's Lair

Some luminous myctograms grow tenaciously on stone walls or in stone crevices, and in the lightless world of underground space, they still spread faith in light. A faint, with a hint of turquoise, brightens the space. It's a pity that for the lizard, light is meaningless. Born in the dark, their eyes have long since deteriorated. Instead of perceiving the outside world, the senses of smell and hearing are used.

The dragon was striding slowly, its bony stomach lacked its luster and was covered in tiny cracks. Even, its tail was cut off. There is no doubt that this lizard dragon is old. It can no longer crisscross the dark earth like a young dragon, nor can it catch prey as easily as it did when it was younger.

All it can do now is protect their descendants.

Here, there are dense lizard dragon eggs. Each of them is more than half a meter tall and is covered with mottled natural patterns. These patterns rise and fall rhythmically as if they are breathing, under the glow of the luminous fungus coat. They are held to the cold ground by some grayish-white gelatinous material that acts as some kind of abutment to protect the dragon eggs from falling to the ground.

This is the lair of the lizard, and the place where the old lizard dragon is located is similar to a human nursery. At the end of this cave there is an exit that connects to the rest of the dragon's lair. From time to time, the roar of a lizard dragon sounded. But now is the time for the dragon to sleep. Most of the dragons lay asleep in a large cavern that resembled a hall, and they were next to each other, keeping themselves safe from the cold.

Of course, there are also lizards that continue to move, such as this guard.

The old dragon patrols the maternity ward like a king, and in two months, a new batch of dragons will appear. This race will grow in strength and is expected to become the ruler of the underworld. Even though they haven't evolved the intelligence of the nezumi yet, they do have a powerful and wise king.

It is the ancestor of the lizard dragon and the hope of the entire race. Because it is the only one that can lay newborn dragon eggs.

It is called Berry Gog, and it is one of the most powerful beings in the Underworld. Because of it, the nezumi can only retreat in the Giant Beast Canyon, and cannot touch the plains where the dragon clan is located.

Of course, Zero doesn't know any of this at the moment.

In the delivery room, a dragon egg shook slightly, then slowly sank before disappearing to the ground. A gap appeared in the ground, and a deft figure emerged. It was Yeliu, and under the cover of the dragon's egg, the girl moved like a ghost, and gradually disappeared.

The old lizard dragon seemed to smell something, it wasn't quite sure. Because the smell was always there, but when it had to concentrate on analyzing what kind of creature it belonged to, the smell disappeared, as if it were hallucinating. The guards didn't know that just now, there was already a dragon egg missing from the delivery room.

Looking at this dragon egg with a unique pattern, Zero has a complicated expression. After a long time, he shook his head at Leah and smiled: "The nezumi dug such a long tunnel, and actually ran into the lizard dragon's lair to steal eggs, is this like the behavior of intelligent beings?"

Leah covered her mouth and chuckled, "They may have evolved intelligence, but don't forget." Those things still have the upper hand in bestiality, so they are just smarter beasts. Do you expect them to dig tunnels into the Hall of Titans?"

"Not really. It's good to be here, at least, when Yeliu is done exploring the road, we can leave the Dragon's Lair and go straight to the Titan Hall, which saves us a lot of effort. "Zero stalls.

Beside him, naturally, there are people like Kim and Alice. They set off from the tunnels of the Behemoth Canyon and traveled at full speed for nearly seven hours to get here. Through the tunnel, they had crossed a distance of almost five hundred kilometers, as if they had reached the end of the Lizard Dragon Plain. Now in the dragon's lair, Yeliu has gone out to explore the way. Once they find their way out of the Dragon's Lair, they will be able to make a beeline for the Titan Hall.

Arriving at their destination was about to arrive, and everyone was a little excited. But they also know that they are in danger now, so everyone sits and rests in order to regain their energy and energy. About half an hour later, Yeliu returned. She was not covered in dust, and it didn't look like she had explored a crypt at all, but it looked like she had gone for a walk in the back garden. Back in the tunnel, Yeliu immediately crouched down and drew something on the ground of the tunnel with her fingers.

Jin Zhiji hit the beam of light of the searchlight under Yeliu's fingers, so the ground was outlined by the girl, and two circles first appeared, one large and one small. Yeliu pointed to the little one and said, "Now we are here, and there are three dragon guards guarding it. There is an exit, and leaving from the exit is the real nest of these monsters. ”

"There are at least hundreds of dragons sleeping there right now, also guarded. Then there is the ......" Yeliu drew some staggered lines in the larger circle: "The hall, I guess call it the hall." Listen, there are some stone passages above the hall that look like sky bridges. The place where we are should be somewhere underground, or in the belly of some mountain. The dragon enters the surface by the stone paths of these bridges, which are connected to them by caves. About 30 meters above the ground, I felt a noticeable increase in air movement at the entrance to one of the caves, which was supposed to be the location of the exit. ”

Zero nodded and asked, "How many guards are there?"

"The first three, twenty-three in the hall. Yeliu said succinctly, and added: "Not much, but not a lot." And these guys have a very sensitive sense of smell, and I have no problem. Zero should be able to hide from them, as for you ......"

Ye Liu said that he would not continue to say this, but what are the following words, Jin They are not stupid, how could they not guess. It's nothing more than saying that their work on concealment is not as good as she and Zero, and the chance of being discovered by the dragon is very high. Kim wanted to refute it, but Yeliu was telling the truth, so he had nothing to say.

"It's okay, just get rid of the guards and leave. Zero said indifferently: "Rest for 10 minutes, and then act." ”

Yeliu shook her head: "I only need 5 minutes." ”

"No, 10 minutes. "Zero persistence.

Yeliu nodded, and the natural girl lowered her head, but there was a slight arc between her lips.

Ten minutes later, Yeliu still got out of the tunnel first. She is the best candidate in the group to stealth ambushes, and no one can do anything about it, not zero. Therefore, the ambush dragon guard was naturally handed over to Yeliu to deal with, and after a while, three finger snaps sounded on the tunnel, which was a signal that it was safe to enter. Zero didn't think there was anything, but the eyes of the Jin people were a little unnatural.

During the whole process of Yeliu's attack on the first three lizard dragons, he didn't even make such a sound, and even the lizard dragons didn't have any howls, so what kind of dark technique should be able to do this?

Kim didn't want to think about it, but thankfully, Yeru was their companion rather than an enemy. In the face of such a strong dark powerhouse, even the most courageous warrior will feel a chill in his heart.

Coming out of the tunnel, Zero sees the corpses of the three dragon guards, including the old dragon with no tail. Yeliu didn't directly divide the body of the lizard dragon like he did in the forward base before. This time she used a more subtle direction, and even Zero couldn't see any obvious wounds on the corpse.

On that side, Yeliu had already dived towards the Lizard Dragon Hall. Zero was afraid that she would lose, so he gestured to everyone and asked them to stay there for the time being. Zero took a step forward, and when the figure reappeared, it was already at Yeliu's side. The ability to jump in space makes Zero move without any wind sound, and all of his information temporarily disappears as he shuttles through secondary space, which is like another form of invisibility.

As for Yeliu, it is to shrink the pores of the whole body, and even stop breathing. It takes a long time before the air in the lungs is replaced. This is a killer's skill, and you can't learn it if you want to.

The two of them stuck to the exit and looked towards the lizard dragon hall, and through the ubiquitous luminous fungus light, it was not difficult to see that in this huge space of nearly 1,000 square meters, hundreds of lizard dragons were curled up, huddled together and sleeping. Around the hall, about twenty dragon guards were resting on the ground, while others were walking back and forth. They are basically distributed on the edges of the hall.

A stone bridge connects the top of a corner of the hall from top to bottom, where it is guarded by three guards. Yeru pointed to the left and tapped her chest, meaning that the guard on the left was in charge of her. Zero nodded, since Yeliu was in charge of the left, the dozen or so lizard dragons on the right were naturally none other than him.

After the two finished their work, they entered the hall in their own ways.

Yeliu's figure looms, and every time she appears, she always steps into some shadowy corner of the hall. Her footholds are carefully screened to ensure that her figure does not appear in the light of the glowing mystery. At the same time, she restrained her breath, and if the dragon could tell by its smell, it wouldn't smell anything at all. Yeliu's movements were silent, and at the moment when he approached a lizard dragon, there was a black glow in his palm.

She pressed lightly on the dragon's head, and the dragon turned into a corpse before it could react.

Looking at Zero in the distance, he finally knew what method Yeliu used. It was a technique to smash the energy threads into the dragon's head in a concentrated manner, instantly destroying its brain and stopping all life skills. Yeliu used this method to quietly kill these guards.

Zero uses his own methods, and he approaches the guards with his ability to space jump. The moment he appeared, he reached out and slapped it at the dragon's head. The palm of the hand brought up several afterimages, but it was a technique of stacking attacks. It's just that when he patted the guard's head, Zero went straight through the force, so the bony armor stomach of the dragon's head sank like cheese, and the energy that penetrated the brain would shatter the dragon's brain. The dragon also collapsed without making a sound, but dragon blood flowed from its nostrils and mouth.

In this regard, Zero is obviously not as clean as Yeliu has done.

But this is a silent killing technique that Zero can think of, after all, he is not as proficient in assassination as Yeru.

The two walked around the hall, and the guards were silently killed one by one, and finally only three were left near the passage. Without any warning, the two of them rushed towards the guards almost at the same time, but they were extremely tacit. Yeliu flashed next to the two lizard dragons that were close together, and with a slap of his hands, the guard fell to the ground. But her figure fell into the eyes of another lizard dragon, and this lizard dragon was about to make a whistling sound, and it was taken a slap on its head, and immediately spurted blood mist from its mouth and nose, and it was also weak and weak.

Zero held its corpse and slowly lowered it to the ground, the whole process silently. After doing this, Zero asked Yeliu to guard the entrance to the stone bridge, and he went back to inform the others to act. After a few moments, the team cautiously circled the side of the hall.

On the ground, a lizard dragon suddenly moved. It smelled of blood, and worse, it was a problem of the same kind. The dragon wakes up, and there is one of the guards near it that Zero killed before. The blood that flowed from the guard's mouth meandered like a small snake to the dragon's side, and the dragon stretched out its long tongue a little, and immediately no longer felt sleepy, and let out a thunderous dragon roar in the sky!

"Discovered, full speed ahead, fast. "Zero yelling.

Everyone didn't care about being cautious, and they all ran towards the stone bridge at full speed. At this time, the dragons in the hall were waking up one by one. The lizard dragon that had tasted the blood of the same kind before had already locked in the direction of Zero and the others, and with a hard kick on its hind limbs, its claws grabbed a spark on the ground, and sprinted towards the team at full speed. Zero flickered, head-on.

At this time, he no longer had any scruples, and his fist shone through the golden light, giving birth to a continuous scream that broke through the sky and slammed into the dragon's head. The running dragon was smashed by Zero's punch and lost its center of gravity, and its body rolled and fell out. By the time it fell to the ground, the entire head had been severely deformed, and only one lower palate was still intact.

The dragon's roar came and went, and they awoke from their slumber, angrily latching onto the invaders and charging them. The team had already started running up the stone bridge, and Zero was left behind. However, he was not the only one who struck, the dragon that was running suddenly knocked over the top of the stone cone that rose from the ground, causing chaos in the front line.

Zero turned around, Kim grinned at him, and then turned around and ran. Zero then caught up, pulled out a golden wave of light in his hand, and the fate broke and roared away, blowing away the twenty or so lizard dragons that were running at the front. And at this moment, the team has made a turn and ran onto another stone bridge. Seeing this, he stomped down directly, shaking the cracks on the surface of the stone bridge and spreading.

A moment later, there was a loud rumble, and the stone bridge was shattered by him, and the mud and gravel poured down like rain, smashing the dragon below to avoid it. The stone bridge connected to the ground broke the middle of the bridge, and some of the dragons ran to the side of the broken bridge and bounced forward with their hind limbs, but unfortunately their bounce force was not enough to cross this gap of nearly seven meters, so they only fell back into the hall, only to yell at the intruders in vain below.

However, the sound of the dragon woke something else. In a pitch-black space, several bright yellow eyes as bright as light bulbs suddenly flipped up, and then a circle of invisible fluctuations swept away, sweeping the entire dragon's lair in an instant. As he was running, he knew that he had been noticed by something, and that these things were not ordinary goods.

The dragons were furious at the sound of dragons roaring from under the bridge, but anger could not help the intruders. It's just that they can't do it, but that doesn't mean that other things can't do it. The team ran up a few stone bridges, and it seemed that they were about to reach the place that Yeryu had said. A large ball of purple flames suddenly came towards her, and Alice also reacted quickly, immediately releasing a hexagonal ice shield to offset the impact of the flames.

The team stopped, and on the wall at the end of the stone bridge ahead, a purple dragon stuck to the wall like a gecko. It was much more slender than the Prunengsaurus, which was not covered in bony armor and had purple scales in many places. Only the head, chest, and the front half of the limbs are covered with black bone armor.

These pitch-black armor stomachs look very strong, a notch higher than the armor of ordinary lizard dragons. The xenosaurus also had a row of crystal-like spines on its back, and the light in the crystal thorns was bright and flickering, as if it was breathing.

Jumping down from the mountain wall and spinning nimbly in mid-air a few times, the xenosaurus fell to the ground, and then the man stood up, like a dragon man who only appeared in fantasy novels. Its stomach-covered head was embedded with six crystals as small as soybeans and eyes like eyes. The hedron flickered, sending out a circle of oscillating fluctuations. This is a means of detecting range, using the feedback of shock waves to locate the prey.

Compared to the perception methods used by ordinary lizard dragons, the dragon man in front of him is obviously much more high-end. It opened its mouth and spit out its long tongue. Then he let out a whistling and stretched out, kicking his hind limbs and immediately crashing into the team.

A figure swept out of the group, staggering with the dragon in a flash of lightning, and then drifted back again. The death blunt in Moni's hand shook and shot the dragon's blood from the sword away. As for the xenomorphic lizardman, his whole body was shocked, and his whole head flew up, and his body fell to the ground in two, falling into the group of lizards.

Moni frowned and said, "This thing is really heavy." ”

Her right hand was sore, and she retreated in the hand-to-hand battle just now. The seemingly slender dragon weighed more than two hundred kilograms. With her own weight and inertia, Moni slashed like a sword into a thick piece of metal. Even though he had killed the thing, it had shaken her hand to a tingle.

Rustle-

Strange sounds rang out throughout the underground space, and everyone looked up, in the faint light of the glowing fungus coat. Xenosaurus dragons crawled out of the caves in the mountain walls, small hedrons glittering dangerously on their heads. Countless concussive detection waves filled the entire space, and Zero and the others couldn't hide their whereabouts at all. At this time, they realized that the caves on the mountain wall were actually the nests of these high lizard dragons.

Like the untouchables and nobles of the human race, the saurosaurus is also hierarchical. Ordinary lizards were only able to sleep together in the hall, while higher lizards had their own "beds". There weren't many of these xenosaurs, only about twenty or thirty. But each one's energy aura is very strong, and like the gray squirrel people, they all catch up with the level of the human eighth-order ability!
