Chapter 298: Vulnerable
"Please don't be nervous, I don't mean it badly. ”
Seeing Lu Chengfeng's strong strength, the man who claimed to be Du Li hurriedly explained. Although he was a little excited in his heart, he still had a peaceful and innocent smile on his face, and said, "The reason why I know your intention is because in the past few months, there have been ** waves of people who have come here." ”
"Oh, you mean?"
Lu Chengfeng and Zu Liang glanced at each other, and they both saw the other's nervousness.
Du Li was about to open his mouth to answer, but unexpectedly, a gust of hot wind swept in and choked on a mouthful of dust. He had to cough a few times and moisten his throat with water, before he said, "I don't know if there really are any ruins here, but the guy who sold you the news must not have kept his word." I've shown people around, so I know what you're looking for. ”
Lu Chengfeng groaned slightly, and then asked, "Then the people who came before us, have you found the ruins of the royal family?"
Du Li shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know about this, after all, I am only responsible for leading the way." Moreover, those people will not tell me the details. However, I have the impression that at least half of those who passed here did not come back. ”
Lu Chengfeng nodded, he felt that this should be considered good news.
No one has returned, proving that the entrance to that site may be dangerous. This means that if there is anything good in it, maybe it hasn't been taken away yet, and he and Zu Liang still have a chance.
Thinking like this, Lu Chengfeng asked casually: "So, if you stopped us, did you just want to show us the way?"
"Yes. Du Li beat the snake with the stick, and simply promoted himself: "Don't look at Pompeii volcano in front of you, but in fact there is still a long way to go." In the middle of the desert, a large number of sand scorpions live. If you don't know their ethnic distribution, it's easy to get into danger. I'm very familiar with the terrain here, and I can definitely save you a lot of trouble. Don't have too much, just give 2,000 gold coins, and I'll take the job. ”
Hearing his words, Lu Chengfeng looked at him a few times with scrutinizing eyes, and he was a little hesitant in his heart.
The Village of Confusion is a place that is notoriously chaotic. Is it really credible that the people here want to lead the way? Lu Chengfeng was very suspicious, and he went out of the village to go around in a circle, and he caused them to die. Although Zu Liang didn't speak, there was clearly suspicion in the eyes he threw here.
However, Lu Chengfeng finally agreed.
If you really have the strength, you can follow them and do it directly. If this guy really has a ghost in his heart, it proves that he and his accomplices are not completely sure that they will eat them, so they will use this method. If this is called Du Li, it's just a matter of really leading the way honestly. If he has ulterior motives, then don't blame Lu Chengfeng for being ruthless, he will definitely make this guy vomit doubly!
Du Li obviously didn't know that Lu Chengfeng was a master of art and bold, and thought that the two of them were really moved, and he couldn't help but be very excited. But in order not to show flaws and arouse suspicion, he still suppressed his expression, went back to the house to prepare for a while, and then took them out of the village.
In the distance behind him, someone looked at the departing figure and sneered.
.........
This whole area called Northmar is really a very desolate place.
In the village of confusion before, although it already felt very dilapidated and old, it was still somewhat popular. After walking out of the village, it was only a hundred steps before the ground turned into coarse gravel again. In the hot wind blowing in the face, there is also a smell of sand. The previous little noise quickly disappeared from the surroundings, and only the intermittent wind lingered in my ears.
Because the village will regularly organize people to clean up the approaching magical beasts, everything went smoothly for the first few kilometers. Du Li, who led the way, did not show anything abnormal, walked in the front in a regular manner, and introduced the situation here from time to time. It was almost after going deep into this desert that the three of them were attacked by sporadic demonic beasts.
There are no magical beasts that can survive in such a desert that are easy to mess with. Even a giant beetle that is accustomed to acting alone is at least a fifth-order demonic beast. This kind of guy weighs at least hundreds of catties, and has a hard brown-yellow shell on his back, which is enough to withstand the full force of the fifth-order master's attack. And their sharp forelimbs, as well as the mucus with paralyzing poison, are a great threat to ordinary mercenaries.
At the very least, Du Li didn't dare to be careless in the face of it.
If Lu Chengfeng wants to go all out and deal with this giant beetle, of course, there is no problem. The incomparably sharp Ice Flame Aurora Sword, even if it was slashed directly into its most defensive shell, could forcibly cut it off. But in order not to frighten Du Li, Lu Chengfeng compressed his fighting qi to half, and did not use any lightsaber skills, which was roughly the level of an ordinary swordsman.
Rao is like this, relying on the sharpness of the Ice Flame Sword, he still found its weakness in a few moves, and killed it with a sword qi.
Seeing the strength of Lu Chengfeng's shot, Zu Liang was undoubtedly a little surprised at first. But this bald head is very smart, and he immediately understood what Lu Chengfeng meant, and then suppressed his strength. After several battles in a row, Du Li had a bottom in his heart.
These two people look very dragged in the village, but they are actually not that powerful
After making such a judgment, he couldn't help but think of the previous waves of people who came here. Although one of them was indeed very awesome, he forcibly killed it. But the others, they have all left. Even if it took several people to divide it, he still made a sum of money in the end. Two more votes might be enough for him to get out of here and clear his name.
With that in mind, he decided to do it.
After walking a few dozen steps forward, I saw that the sand in front of me became thinner, and the wind blew like a sea of sand. He stopped here and turned around, "There is a sand scorpion colony in front of us, so we'd better take a detour." Although the two of them are very strong, if they are besieged by dozens of sand scorpions, it will be very troublesome. ”
Probably used to doing this kind of thing, Du Li's face did not change when he spoke, and he seemed to be very calm.
On the surface, Lu Chengfeng didn't see anything unusual at all. But his instincts told him that trouble was coming!
After secretly glancing at Zu Liang next to him, Lu Chengfeng nodded and agreed to Du Li's detour. So, under the leadership of Du Li, the two first circled two or three kilometers near the sand dunes on the east side, and then made an arc-shaped circle and turned north again. Nearby, there are a few ruined walls that have been hidden by quicksand, with only a few spires exposed.
Du Li stood still on the small sand dunes near the ruin.
On Zu Liang's fist, a white thought qi immediately appeared. After secretly preparing for the move, he put a puzzled expression on his face and asked, "Why don't you leave?"
Du Li sneered, turned around and looked at the two of them condescendingly, with an extra knife in his hand.
"Come out. ”
As he spoke, the slightly bulging sand dunes behind him suddenly shook. Two accomplices who had been ambushed here in advance appeared to surround Lu Chengfeng and Zu Liang. Because the angle has been calculated earlier, the position of the three people is roughly in a zigzag shape, which seals the retreat of the two.
"Are you another fool who came to find the ruins of the royal family?"
"Lao Du, what is the strength of these two guys? I don't think they seem to be afraid, they feel as if they have no fear. ”
As soon as the two accomplices said it, Du Li glanced at it a few times, and also found that Lu Chengfeng and Zu Liang at this moment seemed to be too calm. It's just that in the previous observation, he thought that he had seen through Lu Chengfeng's strength, so when the two of them didn't understand the current situation, he waved the knife in his hand and drank: "If you meet our thief group, you two are unlucky." Obediently hand over the space ring, we can consider letting you go. ”
However, no one paid any attention to him.
Zu Liang looked at the three of them boringly, and said to Lu Chengfeng: "It's exactly the same as expected, I knew that I would have solved him directly on the road." It was a complete waste of time to go around in such a circle. ”
Lu Chengfeng was also very calm, and said: "It's okay, someone has eyes and no beads, and if they forcibly want to send a wave, we can only accept it." ”
"Hey, you two!"
Being ignored like this, Du Li was obviously very unhappy. He shouted twice, and seeing that it was ineffective, he raised his hand and swung a sword ray, attacking Lu Chengfeng through the air.
As the one who leads the way, his strength is the most mediocre of the three. But even then, there is a fifth-order high stage. The two companions in the back, one with a sixth-order high stage and one with a seventh-order rank. With such strength, it should be foolproof against two ordinary swordsmen. It was precisely with such confidence that he did it directly to Lu Chengfeng without any scruples.
However, his sword was directly cut off by Lu Chengfeng's volley!
Such an understatement surprised the two stronger companions. But before they could attack, Zu Liang's Dragon and Tiger Thoughts had already been launched. Under the amplification of the Dragon Shadow and the Tiger Shadow, he forced the seventh-order Seventh Order away with a white telekinetic cannon, and then leaned over like a ghost, and Tie Shan leaned into his arms, which was directly a set of wind combos.
With the mysterious Tiger Shadow Nian Qi bonus, each of his attacks inflicted extremely exaggerated damage.
That sixth-order high-level officer hurriedly opened the Dou Qi armor, but after only three punches, a deep crack appeared on the Dou Qi armor!
Zu Liang's performance shocked the three bandits in the Confused Village. But Lu Chengfeng, who shot next, made them realize that there was a more perverted existence. The three-stage slash slid over, and after directly killing Du Li, Lu Chengfeng swung his sword and killed the seventh-order.
is also a seventh-order master, and the yellow-faced tall man in front of him is completely two levels from Cen Qingwolf. Lu Chengfeng had the intention to experiment with the power of the Shadow Belt, and after a flow of heart forced him back, he directly summoned the two Shadow Swordsmen. With the appearance of Qingguang, two powerful seventh-order swordsmen entered the battle, and almost in just a few seconds, they forced the yellow-faced man into a desperate situation. From Du Li's face turning to the end, it only took more than ten seconds. These three self-righteous bandits were completely vulnerable in front of the real masters! However, at the moment when Lu Chengfeng and Zu Liang stopped, there was a sudden burst of applause from behind them.
