Chapter Ninety-Four: Strange Bird Attack
Wang Xiaotian continued: "The fence defense system is so large and complex that it cannot be built overnight, and requires a lot of materials, personnel and equipment. There had to be a relatively smooth road to transport these things. ”
"Moreover, the equipment in the tower cannot be transported directly, and it can be installed. Debugging of the system is required. Therefore, it is necessary to leave roads and gates for the construction personnel and commissioning personnel!"
"The road must be connected to the door. If you find a way, you will definitely find a door if you follow the road! Even if the road has been damaged after thousands of years, some roadbeds and facilities should still be there. Moreover, the road is for transporting goods, so it should be relatively flat. ”
When Albert heard this, he hurriedly ordered his subordinates, "Go, go down and see if there are any road remains." ”
Albert's three men immediately descended the mountain to look for him.
Soon they cried out from the bottom of the mountain, "There really is a road down there, and it's quite well preserved." ”
"Walk up this road, just below the base of the tower, there's a cave!"
Albert immediately grabbed Wang Xiaotian's wrist and jumped down with him. Tang Yunjin also jumped down.
The next moment, the three of them stood halfway up the mountain.
Looking down from here, you can see a clear "Z" shaped winding mountain road, from the foot of the mountain, winding upwards to where they stand, and a short distance up, the mountain road to the end. It was a very secluded cave.
Above the cave, there is a section of almost vertical mountain wall that is hundreds of meters high. Above the mountain wall is the base of the tower.
If you stand on the top of the mountain where the tower base is located and look down, you can't see the cave at all because of the obstruction of the mountain wall. The winding mountain road is also blocked by the craggy mountain rocks, and there is no trace in sight.
Only when you come to the bottom of the mountain and look up from the bottom can you clearly see the mountain road and the cave.
Everyone is looking at the winding mountain road, sighing that the ancestors of the old era, what kind of amazing means did they use to complete the miraculous project of opening roads in the barren mountains and mountains and building a fence defense system spanning thousands of kilometers?
Just as he was sighing, he suddenly heard a sharp birdsong in the sky. The people looked up and saw a strange bird flying above their heads.
"Let's go. Tang Yunjin couldn't wait to run to the cave first.
Alberta followed closely with Wang Xiaotian. Three of his men also ran to the cave.
At this moment, there was another birdsong, and it was much closer to them. Wang Xiaotian looked back and saw that the incomparably huge strange bird had already pounced on the head of one of Albert's subordinates.
Before he could react, the strange bird had already clawed at his back. One extremely sharp claw pierced his body directly from the back, and the other two claws grabbed his body at the waist.
This unlucky guy immediately let out a scream. Immediately after, the strange bird flapped its wings and flew away with the unlucky eggs screaming repeatedly.
Wang Xiaotian's heart was beating in shock.
Maybe it's the screams of the unlucky guys that attract more strange birds, or maybe other strange birds, who have been paying attention to this place.
Wang Xiaotian saw that there were several strange birds, turning in the air.
If someone told Wang Xiaotian, they were turning around and preparing to go home.
Wang Xiaotian must have been the first to go up and slap his face. Because he had seen that there was a strange bird in the air, which had locked on to him, and was swooping towards him with its wings on!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! It rushed down. Wang Xiaotian shouted anxiously, and his feet also sped up, keeping level with Albert.
The strange bird had rushed down. When he was five or six meters above the ground, his wings suddenly opened, and two giant claws suddenly stretched out downwards to grab Albert.
Albert had already sensed the danger, and he didn't have time to look back, so he immediately threw Wang Xiaotian out, and at the same time activated the flash skill. "Hmm" the two disappeared.
The next moment, the bird's talon grabbed Albert's position. Without accident, he grabbed a void and grabbed directly to the ground, grabbing a few deep grooves on the ground.
The monster bird's body swooped down, and it was about to hit the ground. It hurriedly grabbed the ground with its claws and flailed its wings, trying to steady.
Wang Xiaotian looked back in the air, only saw smoke and dust flying, and could not see the figure of the strange bird at all. When the smoke and dust dissipated, Wang Xiaotian saw that the strange bird was tilting its head and staring at him!
Then, the strange bird opened its talons, waved its wings, and rushed towards him!
Wang Xiaotian also wanted to run quickly, but the others hadn't landed yet, so he couldn't do it, so he could only shout: "It's rushing over!"
Albert appeared beside him, reached out and grabbed his arm, and immediately ran with all his might.
Albert had just used the "flash" skill, and there was no way to use it again in a short period of time, and he didn't dare to jump, because the speed of the strange bird in the air was much faster.
Jumping into the air makes it easier for the strange birds to catch them. Now it's safest only if it's close to the ground. So, the two of them could only run on their legs.
Wang Xiaotian watched the strange bird get closer and closer, and he could even see the lines on the bird's beak. He couldn't help but shout, "Hurry, hurry, it's only five...... Four...... It's three meters, and it's getting faster and faster. Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
In fact, there was no need for Wang Xiaotian to shout, Albert had already noticed that the strange bird was getting closer and closer.
They were still about twenty meters from the entrance of the cave, but this distance was a ramp.
If you use the "flash" skill, you can only flash directly into the air and then fall down, which will waste time and be caught up and bitten by strange birds.
Therefore, it is safest to rush up the ramp and use the "flash" skill against the hole.
Albert decided to delay the Strange Bird for a moment. He reached out and touched his body, but found nothing suitable, so he had to raise his hand to throw the thing out of his wrist and smash it at the strange bird.
The strange bird didn't dodge at all, and directly opened its huge mouth to swallow it, and then continued to chase after it.
Wang Xiaotian couldn't help but ask when he saw that what Albert threw out was swallowed by the strange bird and had no effect of delaying at all: "What did you throw?"
Albert's flesh ached, "Watch." Or a gold watch made by hand by a master. ”
Wang Xiaotian was speechless. What a trench.
At this time, the strange bird had rushed behind Wang Xiaotian. It raised its head and pecked hard, and its thick, hook-like beak pierced Wang Xiaotian's back.
Wang Xiaotian was held by Alberta's left arm, and half of his body could not function with the force, so he could only shout, "Throw me!"
Albert hurriedly waved his arm and sent Wang Xiaotian out. The strange bird's head tilted, and the beak in mid-air deflected slightly, and pierced Albert's back.
Albert hurriedly activated the skill "Flash", and the figure disappeared in an instant! The huge beak of the bird, which almost rubbed Albert's body, plunged into the earth, and suddenly a large cloud of dust flew like ocean waves.
When Albert threw Wang Xiaotian out, the Force did not dissipate immediately, and still controlled half of Wang Xiaotian's body. Therefore, Wang Xiaotian looked at himself, flew into the dark hole, and shouted loudly with frightened limbs.
By the time Albert's Force disappeared and Wang Xiaotian was able to control his body, he had already hit the wall of the cave with a "bang" sound.
Immediately after, Albert appeared next to him and also slammed into the cave wall with a "bang".
Wang Xiaotian turned around and found that Tang Yunjin and Albert's two subordinates who had come in in front of them were standing next to him against the mountain wall, looking nervously outside.
Wang Xiaotian looked out and immediately knew why they were nervous. Because of the depth of the cave, it is only about two meters!
Before he could speak, the huge head of the strange bird had already appeared at the entrance of the cave.
Wang Xiaotian's heart was in his throat. He didn't expect this cave to be so shallow, everyone hurriedly ran over, but the strange bird came to catch the turtle in an urn!
The strange bird stood at the bottom of the slope, with its huge head on its side, and looked at the cave with eyes the size of a basin. It seems to be estimating whether his beak can reach them.
Then the strange bird straightened its head, aimed its beak at the hole, and suddenly rushed over.
Two of Albert's men screamed in fright. Because the location of the two of them is in the middle of the cave.
Wang Xiaotian and Albert were on their left, and Tang Yunjin was on their right. When the beak rushed over, the three were safe for the time being.
Wang Xiaotian watched the bird's beak rush over, and then suddenly stopped less than ten centimeters in front of one of Albert's subordinates!
Two of Albert's men closed their eyes and shouted in fright.
Wang Xiaotian and the others were stunned for a moment, and immediately turned their heads to look. Soon, they saw the reason why the beak of the bird stopped.
Because the hole was stuck in the huge bird's head, it couldn't go any further.
The beak of the bird retreated. Then it stabbed violently again.
"Bang!" the strange bird's head slammed into the mouth of the cave with a loud bang, and the roof of the cave fell into dust.
This time the beak of the bird has advanced by a centimeter compared to the last time.
Two of Albert's men were still shouting with their eyes closed.
Albert shouted impatiently, "Shut up!"
The two stopped shouting and opened their eyes. The subordinate who was facing the beak of the bird looked at the beak in front of him in horror, and his crotch suddenly became hot.
Wang Xiaotian's body immediately flashed violently, isolating the smell of urine.
Albert also shielded the smell. Tang Yunjin's body flickered, and he scolded in disgust, "Cowardice!"
Wang Xiaotian said: "This is not a way." This bird's beak is relatively short, what if it is replaced with a longer one? Not to mention, the strange bird also has a tongue and claws. ”
Before he could finish speaking, the beak of the bird retreated about half a meter, and then the tongue stuck out of the beak, and the python rolled towards the scared guy.
Although this guy has a fifth-level primary-level Force, he has already been frightened, and when he looks at the bird's tongue rolling over, he doesn't know how to dodge at all, and he will only shrink back desperately.
Wang Xiaotian wanted to help, but he was worried that his strength would be exposed and affect his escape plan later. So he hurriedly shouted, "You save people." ”
At the critical moment, Albert made a move. Suddenly, an unusually ornate scimitar appeared in his hand, as fast as lightning, and slashed at the bird's tongue.
With a "swish", the bird's tongue was broken off by the knife. The beak immediately withdrew, and the strange bird outside chirped miserably.
But everyone was stunned.
Albert looked at the scimitar in his hand and whispered to himself, "It's that simple?"
Wang Xiaotian couldn't help but ask, "Are you the Force Master?"
Albert nodded, "Seventh-level Force Beginner." ”
Tang Yunjin suddenly interjected: "Boy, don't try to run away with a bad idea. Although Albert is not specialized in combat, it is more than enough to deal with you as a fifth-level beginner kid. ”
Wang Xiaotian pouted and said, "Are you stupid for me?" There are still a few strange birds outside, should I run out to find death?"
Tang Yunjin nodded and said, "It's good that you understand." ”
Then, he asked Albert, "Albert, your age, you should have experienced the last beast tide." Even if you're not involved, you know a little bit, right?"
Albert shook his head and said, "The last time the beast tide was over, I was still young, and my strength was far behind. ”
Wang Xiaotian asked curiously, "What were you doing a hundred years ago?"
Albert said: "I was very weak at that time, about the third level of the Force, and I ran errands with a big businessman. ”
"That great merchant's business is in the Canaanite Federation. Naturally, I followed him into business in the Canaanite Federation. It wasn't until I was promoted to the seventh-level Force Master that I began to explore the trade route to the Eastern Chu Kingdom. ”
Wang Xiaotian said: "How long did it take you to promote to the seventh-level Force Master?"
