The wind howled in my ears, and my vision was blurry.
The black forest trees and the white moonlight are mixed together, like a still-dry oil painting. The tree trunks are passing by like a fleeting light, incredibly fast. The content of the retina in one second is still jungle shrubs, and in the next second it is a green grassy open space.
.
While running at high speed, the airflow hitting his face was like a knife cutting him. Ossie couldn't open his eyes. He originally wanted to speak, but as soon as the airflow entered his mouth, his saliva started to flow.
Nothing can be said.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, three shadows in the clearing jumped and flickered.
The bright moon hangs in the sky, surrounded by a few wisps of pure white clouds, rippling like water waves. The oval white porcelain plate is clean and bright, spreading the faint moonlight on the surface of the mountains.
The shadows of the cedar forest blended obliquely on the soil, forming a large black flat outline. The upper end of the shadow reached into the creek, and was suddenly shattered by the sparkling light reflected from the surface.
Snapped.
The boots suddenly stopped, and the soles sank heavily into the soil next to the tree trunk. The three figures finally stopped and stood quietly.
Everything around was quiet except for the sound of running water and insects.
"Ugh~" "Ugh~"
Two sounds of retching broke the rare tranquility. Ossie and Skate, who were put down by Ka Xiu, had pale faces, even faintly green. At this moment, one of them was leaning on a tree, looking down with a haggard look on his face, and his chest felt like he was shaking.
So uncomfortable.
It took a while for the two of them to recover. They raised their heads and glanced at each other's beggar costumes, their eyes confused and empty.
There are lush branches and leaves in the forest, and if you run fast, you will inevitably be hit by the branches. A hunting windbreaker was turned into tatters, and there were also some red marks on the Ossie skates.
The two took a deep breath and walked behind Ka Xiu.
Ossie said out of breath: "This is it. This creek goes all the way up to the location of the Immortal Blood Ceremony of the Direct Blood Clan. But I estimate that there must be heavy troops guarding there now, and we have already alerted the snake.
.”
"Is this far from the ceremony location?"
"It's not far, about a kilometer or two."
Ossie looked at the environment carefully and answered truthfully.
"Okay, let the three of us go first and clear out all the vampires there, and you two will follow slowly. Remember to move quickly, otherwise all the vampires will be dead by then and you haven't arrived yet. I don't like to execute the plan
It was a waste of people's time, do you understand?" Ka Xiu didn't really want to take these two burdens with him, but he was very interested in the nest of the direct blood clan.
Bang bang bang... The soil on the ground shook. The three figures that were in sight a second ago disappeared like ghosts. He turned his head and looked upstream of the stream, and suddenly found that there was a very distant place under the moonlight.
There are three black spots fading away.
"No...no, they just left like that?"
Having regained his composure a little, Bingsao rubbed his eyes that were bleeding from the wind, and put down his hand that had been leaning on the tree.
"Based on the previous situation, it seems that the three of them really have no use for us. We are more like a burden..." Ossie wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth: "Even the elders of the direct blood clan have been killed.
, we seem to have far underestimated their strength. They slaughtered the vampires like a cat and a mouse..."
Skate was silent for a long time after listening to Ossie's words. It took a long time: "Doesn't that mean we are useless?"
"Who said that!" The strong man Ossie retorted subconsciously, but the follow-up quickly got stuck. He stood there, murmuring and hesitating for a long time: "At least... you can lead the way, right?"
"..." Bing Dao pursed his lips and stopped talking.
"Don't worry so much, let's catch up quickly. According to the speed of these people, I'm afraid they are already fighting over there."
Ossie coughed twice and changed the subject.
Immediately, the two people who had just recovered a little moved towards
He ran all the way above the stream, much faster than ordinary people.
A minute later, the two of them were halfway through the run. Suddenly they saw a body in black robe floating down on the stream reflecting the moonlight in front of them. He was lying on his back with a dignified face. His face was facing up, and his hands were folded.
Fold it on your lower abdomen and sleep very peacefully.
If you can ignore the big hole in your chest.
He ran a few more steps.
Several corpses floated down from the stream one after another, but they were not as beautiful as the first corpse. Basically, each limb was missing, or the arms were torn off, or the neck was twisted into a twist, and some simply only had the upper body or
There was no head. The blood had completely dyed half of the stream red.
Under the moonlight, there is a strange and bloody feeling.
Their eyelids twitched involuntarily, and they walked faster. As they went upward, more and more bodies piled up in the water.
For a moment, it almost blocked the stream.
"Look what that is?!" The ice knife suddenly pointed at the stream, and Ossie turned his head to look, with deep blue eyes.
A head floating in the water was reflected.
The head and face were ugly, not as handsome as ordinary vampires. Instead, half of the face was covered in scars, as if it had been burned by flames.
"The direct blood clan elder, burn with blood!"
Ossie looked shocked. He had participated in the battle between the Blue-Eyed Hunter and the Vampires three years ago. He was deeply impressed by the several elders of the Vampires who appeared in the direct line of Alfama. Each one of them was extremely powerful.
, the purpose of taking action is to kill people.
It requires the cooperation of several elite hunter brigades and their tacit understanding and sacrifice to be able to deal with it. If you are not careful, you will be completely defeated. It will collapse like a castle made of building blocks.
This scar-faced elder, Xue Burn, was the strongest among the vampire elders who appeared that time. He almost killed a quarter of the elite hunters. He stood guard in front of the ritual altar like a wall of mountains. Anyone who wanted to disrupt the smooth progress of the Blood of Immortality ritual
Everyone will be killed. The hunters failed in the battle three years ago.
However, now.
The severed head appeared in front of the two of them...
Ossie's breath froze and she fell silent again.
The next second, the skate suddenly began to accelerate.
Ossie quickly followed and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just think we should run faster."
"The three gentlemen should still be waiting for us to lead the way..."
Half a minute later.
The two people who ran hard reached two kilometers away. Even though they were far apart, they could faintly hear a few high-pitched screams.
When they finally arrived, all the screams stopped. Only the strange calls of night owls coming from the forest could be heard.
The skater looked ahead and subconsciously covered his nose. Ossie also stopped and his nose twitched, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The grassy soil in front of me is completely different from the surroundings, and there is an obvious red dividing line under the moonlight.
The soil within the dividing line is full of blood, like a sponge swallowing viscous liquid in the gaps. The green grass is also dyed scarlet, and the blood-colored dewdrops on the low-hanging leaves shine with a coquettish color.
There are body parts and corpses everywhere. In some places, dead corpses are even piled up in piles, forming a small hill.
On the top of the mountain, a blond figure sat there. His eyes were slightly closed, as if he was taking a nap. His delicate face looked even whiter under the moonlight, with a sense of luxury. However, the bloody air that occasionally escaped around the body rolled around,
An illusion resembling a raptor even condensed on the shoulders. It looked towards the two of them with ferocious, scarlet eyes.
Buzz!
My mind went blank for a while, like a lightning strike.
Ossie felt that his heart was suddenly grabbed by a big hand, and he squeezed it tightly, almost squeezing it. The veins on his forehead were beating wildly, his fists were clenched, and his clothes were wet with cold sweat on his back.
"Here you come? It's more than ten seconds late, but it doesn't matter."
In the shadow next to him, Sheng Feinan came out, fiddling with the spiral-eyed sword in his hand. The grooves on the blade were soaked in blood, making it even more ferocious. The pupils of the sword's hilt were slightly bright, as if
As if alive.
Behind it, in the darkness, a tall figure was leaning against a tree trunk. A flickering cigarette was held between his fingertips.
That red and blue fire cluster is so bright and conspicuous.
The two of them were finally brought back to their senses, and they took a deep breath of air, regardless of how strong the smell of blood was in the air.
"call……"
There was a whistling sound in the air, and suddenly the blond figure jumped down. His feet clicked on the soil.
Splash out the blood sucked inside.
Two or three drops of blood rolled down the surface of the black leather boots.
There was a flash of light, and a figure appeared behind the two of them.
Ossie seemed to sense the dangerous aura, and subconsciously twisted his shoulders. However, he was still clamped by a hand like an iron pincer.
"wait……"
Whoosh!
Huhhhhhhh...
The wind roared, and the flesh in his mouth rolled. The state he finally recovered from was back to normal, and his eyes were so hazy that he couldn't open them.
But fortunately, the card repair will stop every certain distance.
Let Osi and the others correct the position.
Five minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of a canyon.
"There is a cave in the deepest part of the canyon, which is where the Alfama direct blood clan's lair is. However, they have set up many traps and warnings in the canyon. It is difficult to enter quietly. There are also many secret whistles in the bushes...
"
Bing Jiao elaborated on the information that a large number of mercury hunters sacrificed their lives three years ago. That failed battle was not meaningless.
"Is the location of that cave conspicuous? Is it in a straight direction?" Card Xiu asked thoughtfully after hearing certain information.
"It's straight all the way. It's very conspicuous. The mountain wall is bare, and there is only a large cave on it..." Bing Dao said.
"Okay." Ka Xiu nodded and leaned forward slightly.
The front of the boots sank deeply into the mud.
Their eyelids twitched, and they immediately understood what the three people in front of them were going to do. According to their habits along the way...
It's not hard to guess.
Rush in, fight in. Walk in a straight line and kill all the blockers. In fact, they only need to know the location. Traps, secret sentries, and alarms are meaningless to the three of them...
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
"Boom!"
"Pfft! Kluck! Tear!"
"No……"
There were sounds coming one after another in the canyon, and they were getting farther and farther away. Ossie and Skate looked at each other, looking at each other speechlessly.
**********************
In the dense forest and shrubs of the canyon, a straight trace plowed the ground, extending from the mouth of the canyon to the end of the stone wall.
Many traps were destroyed by brute force, dozens of large trees collapsed along the way, and several corpses were scattered in the bushes. Mosquitoes climbed up and waited to rot in the humid environment.
In front of the stone wall, Ka Xiu and the others slowly stopped.
In front of me is a shadowy wall of strange rocks under the moonlight. It is bare. Only at a height of five meters, a giant tree that looks almost dead is twisting and growing in the gap.
The surface of the tree trunk is wrinkled, like scales, and is full of traces of vicissitudes eroded by time. The whole tree is twisted in shape, and its knotted roots are like pythons, entangled and rooted in the cracks of the rocks.
Under the tree roots, there is an arched cave.
The shape does not look like it was formed naturally, but rather resembles an artificially dug channel. However, after years of wind and rain, those traces have basically been integrated into the stone surface. Kaxiu approached and stretched out his hand to touch
across the surface of the cave wall.
The fingers have faint grooves and ridges.
This may be the pattern of a passage arch.
Card Xiu took out the Devil's Book from his arms and turned to the page of the map. It described the entire ruins. The Yaqaba ruins have a total of six floors, showing an inverted pyramid shape. The first floor is the largest, with thousands of people.
area of more than square kilometers.
Then it gradually becomes smaller from top to bottom.
Its overall structure is divided into three upper and lower floors. Although the upper three floors are also dangerous, they are much safer. The lower three floors are twice as dangerous, and there are endless traps, exotic poisons, etc.
The secret of Nandou that Ka Xiu wants to get is on the lower three floors.
During this period of time, they constructed two routes based on the map plan, from the first underground floor to the fifth underground floor. The first route was much longer and bypassed many dangerous and unknown areas. The second route
It is much faster, and most of the selections are dangerous areas within the tolerable range.
Under the moonlight, Ka Xiu studied for a while and quickly found the location of this passage on the map. It was located on the west side of the ruins, and the passage he last traced back to was at the south end of the ruins. The relative positions of the two were clear in his mind.
visible.
This is the benefit of having a map.
Entering the ruins will not be like entering a maze, like a headless fly. Move forward with purpose and avoid danger.
It can increase the efficiency of searching by countless times.
"Ta-ta-ta...ta-ta-ta..."
In the cave passage, there was a faint sound of rapid and powerful footsteps echoing. It seemed that the vampires stationed in the lair had reacted and sent their elite to assist the secret sentry outside.
Plan to attack from both inside and outside to capture or kill the intruders.
"Hurry up, some bastards have broken into the canyon!"
"It's probably those blue-eyed thieves who are obsessed with it!"
"Kill them all and take off their heads! Hahaha..."
Dozens of Vampires were running wildly in the passage, the hem of their black robes making a hunting sound. The excitement of hunting permeated the team.
Click!
Suddenly, a black boot crushed a stone.
Corner location.
Three figures were like high walls, blocking the way.
