Ji Chaoyang immediately took out another loaded crossbow from his backpack and fired it into the mouth of a flying piranha.

Xu Xin took out his halberd and stabbed another big blood-red fish that was flying toward him!

The Silver King next to Xu Xin suddenly jumped up and pounced directly on the third fish from the side!

"boom!"

Ji Chaoyang's explosive crossbow arrow accurately hit the piranha's mouth, and the entire piranha was instantly blown to pieces with flesh and blood flying everywhere!

"Click!"

Xu Xin's halberd also directly penetrated the entire piranha. He swept it horizontally again, and the halberd burst out of the piranha's belly, with part of the fish's internal organs still picked up on the tip of the halberd!

The Silver King also directly threw a piranha to the ground. The huge wolf fangs penetrated deeply into the piranha's body. With a flick of the wolf's head, it directly disemboweled the piranha!

[Kill the giant mutated piranha*2, get points: 160 points. 】

At this time, the river was already boiling, but no piranha jumped out again.

This group of fish was just like the piranhas that Xu Xin saw in the lake next to the tree house. They began to gather together and crazily ate the injured piranha fish that was first thrown into the water by the two!

The river was churning and gradually dyed red. Blood splashed onto the shore and onto the two people's bodies and faces. However, they didn't care. Instead, they nervously watched the underwater situation while tensing up their bodies, ready to attack at any time.

attack.

But no more piranhas jumped out of the river, but it gradually calmed down and finally became calm.

The red color of the river gradually dissipated with the slow flow of water, and until it became clear again, no piranha came out again.

"Have they swam away already?" Ji Chaoyang asked in a deep voice, still pointing the crossbow at the river.

His spear was broken in order to prevent the cave entrance from closing, and half of it was pierced into the cave wall. His sword was too short, so now he only had a crossbow to deal with the group of fish.

Fortunately, he made many green-level crossbows as backup, and the power of the explosive crossbow bolts did not require high requirements for the crossbow itself. He loaded all the crossbows with an explosive crossbow bolt, so that he was equivalent to possessing

A repeating crossbow that fires continuously.

"Not yet." Xu Xin did not dare to relax his vigilance. Because although the river had returned to calm, the red dots on the map were still scattered in the river in front of them, as if they were lurking. Once they got close to the river to check,

They will jump out of the river and attack.

"Bah." Keke also lay on Xu Xin's shoulder and whispered softly, indicating that there was something in the river, so don't get close yet.

Silver King had already begun to feast on the piranha he killed. It had been running around for a day and was already very hungry.

Although the scales of this piranha are red, the meat is indeed tender and white. It looks very delicious, which makes Xu Xin's throat roll. He didn't eat much of the medicinal meal at noon. It was really too difficult.

After eating, I'm a little hungry now.

The two of them waited there for about two minutes, when the river began to move and ripples appeared.

"These piranhas are starting to swim back!" Seeing the red dots on the map starting to move back, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

There are too many fish. If they all jump out and bite them, they really may not be able to deal with them.

"That's good." Ji Chaoyang's expression relaxed after hearing this.

The two waited for another ten seconds.

"They are far away. I want to see where they are going." Xu Xin focused on the map.

"Okay, you come and look at the map, and I'll take care of these two big piranhas." Ji Chaoyang took out the boning knife and started working on the two piranhas that they killed.

Xu Xin observed the migration path of this group of piranhas.

Their position at this time was still in this circle of hills, and they were already close to the "giant head". Xu Xin had previously suspected that they were underground rather than in the mountain, but now it was confirmed.

The map will only display enemy units near the ground. If it is deeper below the ground, these piranha red dots will not be visible to him.

In other words, this should be the inside of the hills on the ground, and the entire cave wall is actually those hills.

They have come all the way back from the inside of this circle of hills.

And those piranhas were swimming towards the giant's head!

Under Xu Xin's gaze, the red dot had swam close to the giant's head.

But what surprised him was that they didn't really swim over, but suddenly turned around when they got close to it.

On the map, the red dots that originally formed a straight line in the river collectively turned at a position in front of the mine and began to move toward the interior of the hilly resource area.

"...?" Xu Xin looked at these moving red dots and narrowed his eyes.

The brightness of the red dot became darker and darker, and after moving a few hundred meters, it completely dimmed and disappeared.

Xu Xin was thoughtful.

These fish must have swam along the underground river in the hilly resource area. Because they swam underground, Xu Xin's map was no longer visible.

Looking at the direction, they should be swimming towards the lake in the hilly resource area.

It seems that the lake is no longer safe!

However, this at least shows one thing. Following this river, you should be able to reach the inside of the head!

Although they don’t know why they were teleported so far and had to go half a circle to get there, it’s fine as long as they can get there. Over there, there should be the secret and the way out that they are looking for!

Silver King had already eaten a piranha down to its bones and was sitting on the ground to rest with satisfaction.

"How is it? What resources does this fish have?" Xu Xin asked Ji Chaoyang.

This piranha is really big, much bigger than the ones he has seen before. You know, the average piranha is only about the size of a palm. This fish is nearly one meter long. It can be called the giant among piranhas.

A beast!

"It's not bad. Blue grade fish scale skin," Ji Chaoyang picked up a piece of fish skin in his hand, which was covered with red scales. "It can be used to make blue fish scale armor. I don't know what the function of this fish scale armor set is."

."

"Two fish scale skins can't make a set of scale armor." Xu Xin shook his head, he would have killed two more if he had known better.

"Maybe we can meet again in the future?" Ji Chaoyang raised the fish skin in his hand, "Do you want it?"

"Take it, by the way, is only fish skin blue-level?"

"That's right, after all, it's only worth 80 points, and it's just a primary mutated creature. Only the skin will 100% obtain blue-level resources."

Indeed, although 80 points is already very close to the points for an intermediate mutant creature, it still has not passed the intermediate level.

"Hey! Hey!" Coco pushed Xu Xin's face on his shoulder, and pointed his little paw deeper into the cave, as if to tell him that there are good things in that direction, and we should go there quickly.

"Okay, I understand." Xu Xin rubbed Coco's head, "Let's go and continue to move deeper."

At the same time, he told Ji Chaoyang what he had just seen on the map.

"Since there is a road, let's go quickly."

The two did not jump into the water again this time, but chose to walk on land.

We have just attracted a bunch of piranhas, and who knows what else is in the water. Now the shore is very wide and much flatter, and there is no need to go into the water anymore.

"Be careful. Since there are mutated creatures underwater, there may be some on the shore too." Ji Chaoyang reminded.

"Keke will remind us, right?" Xu Xin scratched Keke's chin.

"Hey~" Keke cried out in comfort, then raised her head to show that she was right.

"Ouch!" Because the road surface was much smoother, Silver King could move freely.

"...This place is so spacious and much smoother, just like a tunnel. Why don't we ride the Silver King forward." Xu Xin proposed another time-saving method.

"That's fine, we have spent nearly an hour on the road and we need to move forward quickly." Ji Chaoyang nodded.

The two of them climbed onto Silver King's back, and Coco also got off Xu Xin's shoulders and got into his arms.

"Sit tight. Let's go, Silver King!"

"Ouch--" Silver King subconsciously let out a wolf howl, which echoed throughout the cave, and then it rushed forward.

…

Qi Xuefei, who was sitting on the stone at the entrance of the salt mine and had been waiting, was still staring into the cave, hoping that the two people would suddenly appear.

Suddenly, she heard a faint wolf howl coming from the mine.

"This is... the Silver King's cry?!"

She stood up instantly and looked into the cave entrance.

There was nothing, which made her a little disappointed. However, since she had heard the sound, at least she had a clue.

She immediately sent a voice message to Li Wenxi.

"Hey, Sister Xue Fei, are they back?" Li Wenxi asked impatiently before she could speak.

"Wen Xi, I heard the Silver King's cry from the mine, but I didn't see them."

"Silver King's cry? I'll go back right away!"

…

Silver King's speed was very fast, and the cave became wider and flatter as they walked. In just a few minutes, they were almost at the location of the giant's head.

The river next to me is also getting wider and wider, and is now seven or eight meters wide.
