Seeing Nicholas' uncontrollable fear, Bai Qi also realized the horror of the aura that Nicholas sensed.
Even when facing Aletta and Nine Netherworld Bird Nicholas, he has never been so frightened. Although it has a friendly favorability bonus, this appearance clearly shows how powerful the other party is.
However, Bai Qi slowly calmed down.
"The demigod dragon...the black dragon tribe...is that the black dragon tribe that Nicholas sensed? It turned out to be a demigod black dragon. No wonder the ghost wolf is so afraid."
Bai Qi quickly analyzed the current situation and suddenly felt a little headache.
Based on the information currently available, the base of the Twin Towers is basically in the hands of the Black Dragon Tribe, and it is not very far from here.
"In this case, it will be quite difficult to get back to the bottom of the tower."
Bai Qi sighed. Judging from Nicholas' current situation, the other party's strength may not be higher than that of the Nine Nether Birds. It is estimated that Granny Fan may have some hope when she comes.
Speaking of which, he did not find the materials left behind by the legendary ghost wolf after his death in the black and white secret realm. Combined with the idiot Beta's report afterwards, the ghost wolf should have escaped with the help of some life-saving techniques.
The ghost wolf determined that the Black Dragon Tribe was colluding with the Federation, and it would be great if the other party could use this to cause trouble.
If there was a Ten Thousand Beasts Project, he would be able to sneak in and look for the bottom of the tower.
If you're lucky, you might be able to pick up two or three pieces of legendary materials.
"Beast Controller, your saliva is dripping."
Seeing Bai Qi's silly smile, Shuke couldn't help but remind him.
"Saliva? What saliva?"
When Bai Qi heard this, he wiped the corners of his mouth as if nothing had happened, and reluctantly dismissed his fantasy.
I don't dare to write such an outrageous plot, just think about it.
"Bai Qi, you guys stay here for now, while I go out to see the situation."
After some time of buffering, Nicholas slowly recovered, and a touch of perseverance appeared in his eyes again.
He's just a demigod, and it's not like he's never been exposed to it before. Even if he's not an opponent in a head-on fight, the opponent won't have an easy time.
If it doesn't work, he will run back to the Emerald Dream and chase him in if he can. There, the green dragon is not afraid of any enemy!
"Okay, be careful."
Bai Qi nodded, and after watching Nicholas leave, he fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
The Emerald Dream does not welcome any flesh-and-blood creatures except green dragons. Only souls can enter.
But soon, Nicholas flew back, woke up Bai Qi and others, and said, "The demigod black dragon should have just passed by. It has gone far now. We can go out."
"Passed by?"
Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. As long as they were not active nearby, otherwise they might not even be able to go out.
One person, one dragon, and six pets carefully poked their heads out of the emerald mark. After confirming that neither Nicholas nor Beta sensed the crisis, they left the Emerald Dream one by one.
"Bai Qi, what should we do now?"
Nicholas looked at Bai Qi and asked.
Bai Qi thought for a moment, looked at the sky, and said, "Nicholas, do you still remember which direction the black dragon came from?"
"It came from the west."
Nicholas recalled it carefully and said.
"In that case, let's go south."
It's unclear whether the black dragon is going home or going out, but no matter which way it is, the east-west direction is very dangerous.
Relatively speaking, the risk encountered in the north-south direction will be lower.
As for why not go north.
He is already far enough away from the Federation. If he goes further north, he might as well not go back and just join the tribe.
"good."
Nicholas nodded, and then he restrained his aura and transformed into a human form, following Bai Qi. Bai Qi also put away all the pet beasts, leaving only Husky and Gama outside.
The task now is to figure out where they are now. Too many numbers will only expose the target. Moreover, the shapes of Alpha and Delta are too cool and can easily expose the target. Keep the Husky and pretend to be taking the beast soul master out for wandering.
Just a ferocious beast.
As for the gamma hidden under the clothes...
Of course it's to save your life!
…
The climate here is extremely harsh and the number of ferocious beasts is extremely rare. Bai Qi walked for a long time but found no trace of the existence of the tribe.
"No wonder the tribe has been thinking about invading the Federation. With such a harsh environment, no one would want to stay here."
Bai Qi hid behind a rock wall, spat out the sand in his mouth, and said, "Shuke, can you detect anything?"
"The energy of the earth element here is too strong, and it is a bit chaotic due to the wind and sand, making it difficult to detect."
Shuke shook his head. In such an evil environment, it would be difficult for other creatures to survive here unless they were earth creatures.
"Ben Long seems to have heard something."
At this moment, Nicholas suddenly lay down on the ground, listened carefully for a while, and then raised his head and said, "Bai Qi, there seem to be creatures moving underground, and there are quite a lot of them."
"underground?"
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this. No wonder they couldn't see any signs of life activity around them. Was it originally underground?
"Let's go directly underground."
Seeing the unstoppable sandstorm, Bai Qi immediately signaled Shuke to transform into an earth drill and head underground.
Perhaps because of the strong earth element, the ground here was also extremely hard. Shuke drilled underground for a long time before finally reaching an empty place.
"This looks like a mine tunnel?"
Bai Qi took Shuke back, looked at the obvious traces of artificial mining in the deep passage, and guessed.
"It should be so. Residual traces of some special metals can still be detected here."
Shuke, who turned into a necklace and hid it, nodded and said, "But this place must have been abandoned for a long time."
"That's good."
Bai Qi nodded slightly. In the abandoned mine tunnel, he didn't have to worry about being discovered for the time being.
As for now, the only thing is to capture two ferocious beasts or the beast soul master to come back and understand the situation nearby.
…
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The complexity of this mine far exceeds Bai Qi's imagination. If it were not for the help of Shuke's geological survey equipment, I would have been lost long ago.
"With so many mines dug, is the tribe planning an industrial revolution?"
Bai Qi became more and more confused as he walked, but he bumped into Nicholas who was walking in front.
"Bai Qi, the exit is ahead."
Nicholas snapped his fingers, and an emerald mark appeared in front of Bai Qi, and on the other side of the emerald mark was the scene outside the mine.
A huge, bottomless pit.
"My darling, you really plan to carry out the industrial revolution~"
Looking at the scene outside the mine, Bai Qi opened his mouth in surprise.
The walls around the huge pit are covered with pits one after another, and passages surround it. There are also metal stairs connecting each other in the cave. From a distance, it looks like the lair of some kind of monster.
The mine tunnel that Bai Qi and the others are currently in is located at the top of this huge mine. Except for a few humans and ferocious beasts who occasionally pass by here, they are almost left out in the cold.
"If you dig such a big hole, you will definitely mine a lot of metal. What are you going to do?"
Bai Qi continued to look down along the jade mark, and saw that there was a complete set of smelting equipment in the mine, but not even a single ore was transported upwards. Instead, it was transported downwards.
"Have they all been sent to the bottom of the mine?"
Bai Qi nodded slightly, but suddenly heard some movement and immediately restrained his breath.
Not far from the exit of their mine, two humans in short clothes were walking leisurely out of the mine.
"Did you see it just now? Lord Black Dragon's majestic and heroic appearance is really unforgettable."
"Don't think about it, we are just vassals of the Black Dragon Tribe. If it weren't for the fact that the Diyou Armor Beast is a natural mining expert, it wouldn't be our turn."
"That's true, but now we can be considered as joining the Black Dragon Tribe. Although it is a bit harder, it is indeed much better than the precarious life before."
"Nonsense, tribes have always been like this. The strong are respected. Countless tribes disappear and are born every year. If we didn't rely on powerful tribes like the Black Dragon Tribe, we would have been in trouble for a long time."
"Hahaha... take a walk and see how those low-level servants are doing. The men in black robes brought by Lord Black Dragon are still waiting."
"Well, you have to hurry up."
The two continued to move forward, but when they passed the exit of a mine tunnel, they suddenly felt their feet sink, and then they fell in.
Inside the mine tunnel.
The two beast soul masters looked at Bai Qi and Nicholas in front of them in horror. They wanted to speak, but no sound came out.
"Jerry, have you cut off their spiritual connection with the outside world?"
"Don't worry, they can't contact the outside world for the time being."
"That's good."
Bai Qi nodded, looked at the two of them, and said, "I'll ask a question later, and you guys will answer. Do you understand?"
The two nodded repeatedly. As the beast soul masters of the Earth-Wandering Armored Beast, they had fully inherited each other's timid character. Facing Bai Qi, whose aura far surpassed theirs, they had no intention of resisting at all.
"Is the Lord Black Dragon you just mentioned the demigod black dragon from the Black Dragon Tribe?"
The two nodded, very well-behaved.
Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded slightly and continued to ask, "He has left now. Will he be back soon?"
The two shook their heads, moving so fast that they almost bumped into their companions.
"Very good, now I allow one of you to speak. If you dare to scream, you will know the consequences~"
With that said, Bai Qi loosened the restraints of one of them, knocked out the other one, and asked, "What is the purpose of that black dragon coming here? Also, tell me carefully what you are mining here."
Hearing Bai Qi's series of questions, the man couldn't help but be confused, but after seeing Bai Qi's impatient eyes, he immediately told what he knew like a machine gun.
Later, Bai Qi woke up the other person and asked the same question repeatedly, and the answers were exactly the same.
"Beast Master, they didn't lie."
Jerry left the two of them and said.
"Yeah, I can see it."
Bai Qi nodded, asked some other questions, and immediately summoned Cordyceps to cover their memories. Looking at the huge pothole outside the jade mark, his eyes became deeper and deeper.
