In the swaying and twisted dark shadow, the interlocking stalagmites, rock peaks, and stone protrusions occupy most of the space in the field of vision. As long as there is a sound in the empty and silent cave, it can be heard far and wide along the winding tunnels.
Greem was perched high on the Demon Crocodile Hunter's back, a sharp blue light flashing in his eyes.
Although the surroundings were very quiet and there was no sound, Greem's dangerous instincts were already audible. It seemed that a large number of enemies had already arrived!
With a soft click, a blinding red flame shield appeared, and began to rotate around Greem's body. The chip in Greem's mind was busy calculating, and countless real-time images were constantly matched and compared.
The subtle differences that were difficult to discern with the naked eye were picked out one by one by the sharp-eyed chip, and then marked on Greem's retina one by one.
Greem turned his head and stared at a low-hanging stalactite on the left side of his route. The shadow there was a little thicker than before. As Greem lightly stomped his foot, the native hunter in front of him raised his hand with one hand and made a move.
An earth-yellow sharp earth spear was condensed in its hand.
Twisting his waist and swaying, under the strong projection of the native hunter, the soil spear turned into a streak of yellow lightning, and instantly pierced the shadow.
In Greem's vision, there was originally nothing there. There was neither any elemental reaction nor any breath of life. But as the earth spear penetrated, there was first a dull "pop" sound as the nails penetrated the flesh.
There was an unusual sound, followed by a shrill scream that echoed through the silent space.
The shadow boiled, and a humanoid creature covered in fine blue-black scales suddenly appeared. The earth spear just passed through the chest and nailed it to the stone pillar.
Warm blood trickled down the earth spear, and the humanoid creature began to struggle desperately. The harder it struggled, the larger the wound torn by the earth spear, and the more ferocious the blood flowed.
puff.
The second earth spear came across the sky and pierced its head.
The humanoid creature stopped moving instantly and hung motionless on the stone pillar. The only sound left in the cave was the clear and sweet sound of blood dripping onto the ground.
The next moment, Greem raised his head and looked at the dark top of the wall.
It was twelve or thirteen meters above the ground. Even with Greem's eyesight, the scene he saw under the interference of weak light was blurry. But as the native hunter threw two earth spears, another thin man appeared.
The vigorous humanoid creature fell from above.
The two spears just pierced its right chest and left leg, but did not take away its life. However, just as it was lying on the cold floor in pain and struggling desperately, the huge claws of the demon crocodile suddenly expanded in front of its eyes.
There was a muffled sound, and the cave resounded with the muffled sound of tomatoes and watermelons being stepped on and exploded.
The Demon Crocodile was still moving forward leisurely and leisurely. When it raised its claws again, where the humanoid creature was, there was only a puddle of mud and meat paste whose shape, race, and gender were difficult to distinguish.
A sharp whistle suddenly sounded in the darkness.
When the whistle sounded through the cave, in the deep darkness in the distance, countless shadowy black figures began to quickly approach Greem's direction. Judging from the looks of it, there were probably more than a hundred people.
In the darkness, the explosions of bowstrings continued continuously, and the sharp explosions that pierced the air came from all directions, aiming directly at Greem, who was covered in flames.
Aou, prepare for a group fight!
Greem didn't dare to lift his weight, and instantly dissipated the flame shield on his body, and then his body sank into the huge and thick body of the Demon Crocodile as if he was sinking into a swamp.
Puff puff puff...
As soon as Greem disappeared, the back of the demon crocodile he was originally standing on was densely covered with sharp arrows that looked like a field of wheat. All the arrows were flashing green fluorescence, obviously containing some unknown toxin.
The native hunter who was attacked along with it was also full of arrows, but it didn't care. It raised its hands above its head and grasped it, and every time it could automatically condense a one and a half meter long arrow.
The earth element threw a spear. And it opened its bow from left to right, constantly throwing towards the lizard hunters who were showing their figures in the distance.
Some were dodged by the lizard hunters and assassins, some were blown to pieces on the obstructing rock peaks and stalagmites, and some directly hit the target, instantly annihilating an enemy in the shadows.
It has to be said that the body of the lizard man is still too weak and slender. In order not to affect the flexibility and speed of movement, they have not evolved thick and dense hard scales similar to those of large monsters, but have grown layers of fine scales.
The thin blue-black scales are only used to isolate the body temperature from leaking out.
This evolutionary direction gives them unparalleled dark stealth capabilities in dark caves, but makes their defenses vulnerable. Earth spears as thick as cup rims are a deadly terror no matter where they penetrate their bodies.
Huge damage. Their delicate bodies are simply not strong enough to withstand such an attack.
The poison-quenched arrows they usually used had no effect at all against the life of a mud-carved indigenous elemental puppet. As a last resort, these lizard-man hunters had to pull out their short daggers and shoot through the rock walls and stalagmites.
Yue Rufei pounced towards the huge demon crocodile that was still moving forward.
At this moment, the shortcomings of non-enchanted weapons are undoubtedly obvious.
Although weapons made from special metals in the ground are extremely sharp, most of them are thin and short. Such weapons are simply not enough to break the yellow-glow mud armor on the surface of the Demon Crocodile. Many lizardmen surrounded the Demon Crocodile and attacked continuously.
The mud debris that was chopped up and cut by the mud armor kept falling down. But after a moment, an earthy yellow halo flashed through, and the mud armor returned to like new again.
They can't beat the devil crocodile, but the devil crocodile can beat them.
Although the attack frequency of the Demon Crocodile is a bit slower, each large area spear thrust can take away the lives of 3-5 lizard men. The Demon Crocodile is like a giant tank that keeps rolling forward, and those
The lizard men are a group of ignorant natives holding bamboo spears and carrying bamboo arrows. The gap in strength between the two sides is by no means small, and the huge casualties caused by this are understandable.
Finally, after more than half of the lizard men were damaged, a shrill whistle sounded again in the darkness in the distance.
With a low roar, the lizards began to retreat.
When the surroundings of the Demon Crocodile returned to peace again, Greem's body hidden under the thick cloak slowly emerged. He hesitated and did not drive the Demon Crocodile to pursue these enemies.
It can be seen that the underground tribes here have a strong sense of territoriality. I was probably too close to their habitat and suffered a violent attack from them. At this time, they suffered such a big loss and seemed to be retreating to their nests.
We went to the defense.
However, just as Greem drove the Demon Crocodile forward, his keen hearing sensed the shrill screams of the lizard people in the distance, as if a new war was starting in the darkness.
However, Greem didn't dare to be interested in this, so he just stood on the magic crocodile and looked into the distance for a few times before continuing his journey.
In the dark shadow, the old jackal leader hid behind a stone pillar, sizing up Greem from a distance, his gray, thin fur face full of an expression of surprise that could not be concealed.
Behind it, the wolf men with strong bodies and flying in the dark and rugged caves were rushing towards the defeated lizard man team. The two sides chased and fought in the dark shadows of the rock peaks and stalagmites.
, the muffled sound of a sharp dagger slicing his throat was endless.
If this raid goes well, maybe that damn lizard tribe will be driven out of this area, and then all the profits in the ruins will belong to the jackals.
However, Gray Ear was still wary of the surface apprentice who suddenly broke into the ruins.
As it waved, a subordinate emerged from the shadows behind it.
"Go, notify the Split Tooth in Paradise City and let him tell the fallen wizard that someone else wants to enter the ruins. Just say that our Gray Ear Tribe cannot stop the enemy and has suffered heavy losses. The Dark Lin Lizard Tribe has been annihilated by the enemy!
"In the darkness, the scarlet blood pupils of the old jackal were exposed with cold light, and the white fangs were heart-stopping.
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
With a slight bow and salute, the shadow turned and disappeared into the boundless darkness.
…………
The further he walked, the deeper the worry in Greem's heart became.
In front of and behind you, to your left and right, and even above your head and feet, the metal content in the rock formations is getting higher and higher, and the soil exposed by the fruit is getting less and less. This also means that once you encounter a terrible enemy here, you will
Even he can no longer escape as easily as before.
For him, this was really the bad news he least wanted to hear.
However, Greem had to admit that this was indeed an extremely suitable area for building a city.
In the underground world, if you want to build a city once and for all, in addition to considering the surrounding biological resources, mineral resources and water sources, the most important thing to consider is the stability and solidity of the geological structure. Like this, it is surrounded by metal mineral deposits and rock formations.
Continuous and stable areas are rare.
The presence of mineral deposits means that there will be a steady stream of resources to attract wandering caravans, and the presence of water means that the place can support more lives, but these are not as good as having a stable "sky". No one wants to sleep
It was crushed into meat patties by tens of millions of tons of soil and sand!
So Kirby pointed out that this is the ruins of the previous Paradise City. Judging from the terrain alone, it still makes some sense.
They passed through the habitats of multiple underground races in succession, perhaps affected by the tragic defeat of the lizard people. They were all clustered in the darkness in the distance, but they did not rush forward to attack impulsively.
So in a scene full of dangers, the Demon Crocodile finally came to the end of its long journey.
When Greem rode the Demon Crocodile through a huge arch, the unprecedented landscape in front of him suddenly became empty, and a dark, huge cave full of confusing and fantasy colors appeared in front of him.
