Chapter 310: Speculation
Wangshan ran a dead horse.
This sentence does not apply to the Knight of the Radiant Moon.
Lin Lichuan and Lu Qiu flew with all their might, and it took less than an hour to reach the periphery of the Ring of Sighs.
As far as the eye can see, the mountains are lush and full of tall and lush trees, which contrasts sharply with the empty and bleak wilderness.
What surprised Lin Lichuan even more was that in the blue sky above the Circle of Sighs, many twisted vortices could be faintly seen, the small ones were only the size of cars, and the large area was even comparable to a large square, which were irregularly distributed in the sky.
"That's the Death Vortex. Lu Qiu explained softly on the side, "The sky above the Ring of Sighs is full of this vortex, and if you are accidentally caught in it, it will be twisted into powder in an instant. ”
Lu Qiu's voice fell, and just as a huge bird with a wingspan of three meters flew through the sky, one wing accidentally touched the vortex, and in an instant, the whole body was swept into the vortex uncontrollably, and it was crushed into a fluffy blood mist before it could even make a sound.
"The Death Vortex is not even a knight to carry it head-on, it is precisely because of their existence that the Terran aircraft have not been able to pass over the Ring of Sighs, and if we want to hurry, it is better to walk from the ground. "Lu Qiu Road.
Lin Lichuan naturally has no objections, there is a death vortex, and flying from the air is not necessarily faster than the ground.
Even so, the two did not really rush with their feet, but controlled the altitude slightly higher than the canopy of the tree and flew out of thin air.
After really entering the Circle of Sighs, Lin Lichuan realized how serious the beast inside was, but in just one kilometer, he sensed no less than a hundred beast breaths, although most of them were not even black iron steps, but they were also very terrifying.
And this is only the outer area, and the deeper areas of the Ring of Sighs must be inhabited by more powerful beasts.
With these beasts, the Circle of Sighs is almost equivalent to the forbidden land of ordinary people, and the resources required to open up a stable passage in the Ring of Sighs are undoubtedly astronomical, and it makes people's scalps tingle to think about.
As time passed, the surrounding scenery gradually transitioned from mountain forest to mountainous land, and towering mountains began to appear in the field of vision.
Lu Qiu looked around and said softly: "This is the inner ring area of the Ring of Sighs, and if you go through a few mountains further, you can enter the core area, and then we have to be a little more careful, whether it is the inner ring or the core area, the biological energy level of the beast is much stronger than the periphery, and there is no shortage of existences that are comparable to knights." ”
Lin Lichuan bowed slightly, and the next second his wrist suddenly flipped over, and there was an extra long sword in his palm, and then he slashed out a sword pressure with a sharp swing, roaring and slashing downward, drilling out of the ground, looking like an earthworm that had been magnified countless times, full of sharp teeth, and cut the monster that tried to sneak attack in two.
Crash!
With a large amount of disgusting green blood splashing, the corpse of the monster that was broken in two fell heavily to the ground, followed by several more identical earthworm monsters from the ground, but did not attack Lin Lichuan, but rushed towards the corpse of his companion, opening his mouth wide and feasting on it.
"The appearance and habits of these monsters are really weird. Lin Lichuan muttered in surprise.
Lu Qiu smiled slightly and explained: "The Ring of Sighs is isolated from the outside world all year round, so most of the creatures living here are completely different from the outside, and when you put it outside, it is a new species that has never been seen before, the deeper the Ring of Sighs, the more obvious this phenomenon is, and when you get to the core area, you can also see many more strange-looking beasts." ”
When she said this, the girl's eyes lit up slightly, showing a rare look of slightly excitement and excitement, which made Lin Lichuan stunned.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little out of shape. Lu Qiu quickly noticed his abnormal performance and quickly returned to his normal appearance.
Lin Lichuan waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't expect that in addition to meteorite stones, you are also so interested in biological research." ”
"In fact, the most fundamental reason why I study meteorite is because of biological research. ”
"Meteorite stones and creatures...... Lin Lichuan was stunned, and then suddenly thought of one thing, and blurted out, "Alien beasts and star beasts?"
Lu Qiu glanced at him appreciatively and sighed, "Ah Chuan, your thinking is really sharp, it's a pity not to be a researcher." ”
"I don't have as much knowledge as you. Lin Lichuan shrugged.
Lu Qiu just said it casually, and he didn't care about being rejected, and continued: "I thought it was strange a long time ago, the meteorite was excavated from a meteorite, and it is reasonable to say that it is a natural product, but there are meteorite crystals in the bodies of alien beasts and star beasts, which is not normal. ”
"Aren't the meteorite crystals in the bodies of alien beasts and star beasts born gradually because they feed on meteorites all year round?" Lin Lichuan asked.
Lu Qiu shook his head and said: "The activities of alien beasts and star beasts all depend on the meteorite in their bodies, once the energy of the meteorite is exhausted, they will die immediately, if their meteorite is gradually generated by swallowing meteorites, then how did they carry out life activities in the beginning?"
Lin Lichuan was stunned, he really hadn't thought about this question.
"And what do you mean?"
"Alien beasts and star beasts are man-made creatures, biochemical beasts created by the Star Clan using meteorite stones!" Lu Qiu said categorically.
This guess was very bold, but Lin Lichuan recalled all the things he had encountered in the past with alien beasts and star beasts, but he intuitively felt that Lu Qiu's guess might be right.
Seeing Lin Lichuan's contemplative face, Lu Qiu blinked, and suddenly chuckled: "Ah Chuan, this is just my speculation in the final analysis, there is no clear basis, and it has nothing to do with the current situation, you don't have to think about it." ”
"I just have a gut feeling that maybe you're right. Coming back to his senses, Lin Lichuan smiled, "But it really doesn't have much to do with the current situation, tell me, where is the specific location of the Star Calamity Ruins?"
Lu Qiu didn't answer immediately when he heard this, but suddenly pointed his finger towards the void, and where his fingertips passed, a thin spatial crack quickly emerged and expanded, followed by a strange creature the size of a palm and shaped like a sparrow.
"This is the Shadow-Seeking Bird, an extradimensional creature that can leave its own unique shadow pattern somewhere, and then be able to sense and find the place where it left its shadow pattern again, no matter how far away it is. Lu Qiu rubbed the chin of the shadow-seeking bird and explained to Lin Lichuan.
"It's really convenient. Lin Lichuan looked at the shadow-seeking bird that flew to Lu Qiu's shoulder in surprise.
Creak!
After looking around for a moment, the shadow-seeking bird suddenly pointed in one direction with its wings and chirped a few crisply.
Seeing this, Lu Qiu touched the head of the shadow bird, and then looked at Lin Lichuan: "Let's go, the Star Calamity Ruins are in that direction." ”
......
Just when Lin Lichuan and Lu Qiu followed the guidance of the shadow bird to the ruins, six or seven hundred kilometers apart, where the stinger and others died, four figures suddenly appeared.
Three of them were dressed in gray robes, whose faces were not clear because of the obscuration of the brim of their hats, and the fourth was a fat man who had left not long ago, and he had been thrown to the ground by one of the gray-robed men, his head covered in blood, and his small eyes were full of fear.
"There is no living mouth, everyone is fatal with one blow, the time of death is about two hours ago, and the person who did it is at least knight-level strength. "A gray-robed man only looked around, without even looking closely at the corpse, and came to a conclusion.
The other two didn't seem to have the slightest doubt about his speculation, and one of them listened to it, and said respectfully to the other gray-robed man with a relatively thin body: "My lord, it seems that it is our goal to kill these people." ”
"I want a definite answer. The thin gray-robed man said lightly.
The voice fell, and the gray-robed man who had previously told the speculation of the time of death walked towards the fat man lying on the ground without saying a word.
The fat man immediately showed a frightened look, and said urgently: "A few adults spare their lives, I will say anything! Those two people just now ......."
It's a pity that before he finished speaking, he was coldly interrupted by the gray-robed man: "I'll watch it myself!"
As soon as the words fell, the index finger of his right hand suddenly stabbed the fat man's temple, directly pierced the hard skull, stirred it in a few times, and then pulled it out, and took it into his mouth without hesitation.
After a while, the gray-robed man threw down the fat man, who had turned into a corpse, stood still, and said respectfully to the thin gray-robed man, "My lord, it is indeed our goal to kill these people, and he and a woman are heading towards the Ring of Sighs. ”
The thin gray-robed man bowed lightly.
"Chase!"
