โ92. The Horror Happy Valley (3)
"It's a flamingo!" Chijiu shouted in a low voice.
A group of fiery red birds rushed towards the crowd, bringing up smoke and dust on the ground, and flew into the air halfway, their sharp calls pierced the eardrums.
"How come there are flamingos here?" Noah and the others activated the protective cover, while cooperating with their positions and guarding one side.
Flamingos generally live in salt lakes or along the coast, and have water system abilities, often in groups of tens of thousands. Today, there are only about 20 people who have encountered them, and they may have been turbid when passing through the land of turbidity.
There is no water source nearby, and the flamingo's attack power is greatly reduced. Especially Chiji, with the Cinder Flame Sword, he could solve two-thirds of the flamingos by himself. The rest were also wiped out by Noah, Squid and others.
Qianli, Char, Zuo Mian, Lianheng and others basically didn't even move.
Chijiu threw out a ball of flame, burned all the corpses, and got five or six sharp stones.
"It seems that these flamingos have not been turbid for a long time, and they are not the original creatures in Happy Valley." The squid put away their weapons and said casually.
Chijiu threw the sharp stone to Zuo Mian and said impatiently, "Go in."
Zuo Mian held the sharp stone and asked strangely, "Why give it to me?"
Akatsuki glanced at him, but said nothing.
Shui Jing smiled and said, "Take care of the younger generation."
Zuo Mian was speechless and silently put away the sharp stone.
A few people stepped into the entrance, and Qianli said lightly: "I don't know which team is responsible for exploring the top of the colorful clouds like us?"
Lian Heng replied: "It should be a member of the Ming Dynasty. For a mixed team mission like this, two to four teams from different organizations are usually dispatched in the same area."
Qianli nodded: "I think so too. At least 11 people are known to have the same goal as ours."
Lian Heng and the others were slightly taken aback and asked, "They are here? Where are they?"
"At 10 o'clock, it is about 800 meters away from us. When they encountered flamingos just now, they were watching the battle from a high place."
Everyone looked at them together, and sure enough, a figure flashed in the mountainside building complex.
"Don't worry about them." Qianli said, "Time is tight, it took us seven days to travel, and it is best to complete the task within ten days."
Noah and the others nodded, and even Chijiu, who wanted to deter the opponent, put away his anger and continued to move forward according to the previously planned route.
The facilities in Happy Valley are basically in a state of abandonment. Even if the energy is not exhausted, it cannot be used in the turbid land, so everyone can only walk.
After walking for more than an hour, until the sun went down, everyone did not encounter a turbid creature.
The squid wondered: "Isn't Happy Valley a dangerous forbidden place in the legend? Isn't it a bit unworthy of its name?"
"Maybe the previous mercenaries have cleaned up the turbid creatures here?" Shui Jing smiled while sorting out the equipment.
Several people stopped at a small antique palace, ready to set up camp here tonight.
At this time, a member of another team leaned over, and one of the blond men greeted: "Brothers, do you mind if we set up a camp nearby?"
Noah got up and said, "Please feel free."
"Thank you." The blond man smiled, "Let me introduce myself first, I'm White Lion, a member of the Ming-Dark Pavilion, and this is Sand Scorpion..."
He introduced the partners around him one by one, and finally asked, "How do you call them?"
As a representative, Noah reported their names to each other.
When the members of the Dark Pavilion heard the names of "Zero" and "Knight", they all cast their attention.
The girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a beautiful face, just as rumored, and there is no energy fluctuation in her body, no different from ordinary little girls. The only special thing is probably her calm expression and slightly indifferent eyes.
The knight who was inseparable from her was only in his early twenties, and he also had no power fluctuations, but he was awe-inspiring, and anyone with a little vision could feel the terrifying and cold power contained in him.
The third person without supernatural fluctuations is the young man named "Zuo Wing" (the code name of Zuo Mian). No matter how the members of the Dark Pavilion see him, he is just an ordinary person, but how can an ordinary person enter and exit the turbid land? Could it be that he is actually hiding it too?
A team of 9 has 2 minors. Could it be that this world has entered the time for an update?
The last thing that attracted special attention to the members of the dark pavilion was Chijiu, or more precisely, the weapon in his hand, the world's first and only exclusive engraved weapon - Ember Flame. Its appearance was uneventful, and through the hands of Chijiu, it caused a huge shock in a small area.
When the No. 108 Spirit Marker just opened up the "Weapon Weapon" area, no one knew what kind of weapon it was, but with the accumulation of Chido's record, everyone gradually discovered that what he was holding was the rumored weapon. The skeletonized weapon in the game, with its power and superior exclusive features, quickly became the NO.1 in the energy weapon rankings.
However, in the near future, as more and more skeletonized weapons become available, the weapon rankings will list skeletonized weapons and establish a skeletonized weapon ranking.
As an exclusive weapon in the true sense, the skeletonized weapon is no longer suitable for mixing with general weapons. In a few hundred years, these unique weapons will become the precious heritage of mankind, and they bear witness to the long and arduous growth process experienced by the first spiritual tattoo artist in this field...
In the middle of the night, when everyone was sleeping soundly, Qianli suddenly opened his eyes. She felt that there were many creatures moving in the mountain, looking at the body, it seemed to be an ant colony. Ordinary ants don't have much attack power, but this group of ants, one about the size of a palm, has countless numbers, some of which are fighting each other, while the other is digging their nests.
During the day, Qianli did not find any living creatures in the nest, but now they are emerging in groups. The dim light at night is not conducive to combat. Fortunately, this group of ants did not pay attention to the people outside the mountain. They should be able to wait until dawn to find a way to clean up.
Suddenly, a strange figure appeared in the perception. He sneaked into the back, poured something into the mountain fรจng, and then slowly extended to the place where everyone was, until it stopped outside the small palace. After doing all this, he made a few vertical jumps and quickly disappeared into the night.
Qianli sat up and said to Lian Heng who was vigilant: "Wake everyone up and enter a state of preparation."
Lian Heng used his brainwaves to send messages to everyone, and asked, "Zero, what did you find?"
Without waiting for her to reply, the red dove squid and others jumped up one after another.
"What's the situation?" the squid asked.
"Someone poured something outside the small palace."
The squid immediately ran out to check the situation.
After a while, he ran back with a dignified expression and said, "It's blood. Someone poured blood outside the palace gate."
"Pack up and leave immediately!" Qianli said without hesitation.
Shui Jing frowned and said, "Is this trying to attract turbid creatures?"
"Obviously." Noah replied while packing his things, "It's just that there shouldn't be any turbid creatures nearby, right?"
"Yes!" Qianli knocked on the wall and said, "There are tens of thousands of ants in the mountain."
Everyone's expressions changed and their movements accelerated. It is really unwise to fight against ant colonies in the dark.
"You should inform the people in the dark pavilion." Yuan Ye suddenly said.
Chijiu sneered: "Is this necessary? Who knows if they did it in secret?"
"It's not theirs." Qianli said, "There is no need to inform them, they have been alerted."
Sure enough, after a while, the white lion came over and asked, "What happened?"
Noah briefly explained the situation.
The white lion looked solemn, and after saying thanks, he immediately returned to the team to notify his companions to withdraw from the camp.
At this moment, there was a dense sound of Xixi and Susuo from the mountain.
"It's coming so fast." Noah whispered.
Several people did not dare to hesitate any longer, packed their bags, and quickly ran up the mountain.
Soon, the people from the Dark Pavilion followed.
As soon as the two groups of people left the small palace, the ants came out one by one from the cliffs of the mountain, their eyes glowing with green light, which looked extraordinarily eerie in the dark night.
They smelled the smell of blood, frantically screamed, and hurriedly chased in the direction where everyone left. An ant colony was pressed in blackness, and soon the long mountain ladder was covered.
After chasing and fleeing for about half an hour, everyone was a little tired. The mountain ladder was winding and steep. In the dark night, no one dared to jump casually. Except for Char, of course. He carried a thousand miles on his back like a gecko with ease.
The two stopped on a spacious viewing platform, because Qianli found that the ant colony suddenly stopped chasing, and huddled together at a distance of only 100 meters from the viewing platform.
Strange, what's going on? Turbid creatures cannot easily give up food that is in sight.
Could it be... that there is something around here that is holding them back?
Qianli jumped off Char's back and scanned a large area with his senses, but apart from the group of ants, there were no other turbid creatures nearby, at least not enough turbid creatures to pose a threat.
At this time, the rest of the people had arrived, and Noah asked, "Zero, why did you stop? The ant colony is not far behind."
"I know." Qianli turned his head to the direction of the top of the mountain, feeling uneasy in his heart.
"Why didn't you run away?" The members of the Dark Pavilion also followed.
The Fools will all look at Qianli, and the others will follow their gazes, only to see a thin figure with his back to the crowd, standing quietly in the wind, not knowing what he is thinking.
