Under the night, a large group of black bats fluttered across the sky and disappeared at the end of the horizon. There was also a white figure wrapped in the center of the bat group. Nangong Wuyue watched the pair of enemies disappear into the horizon and couldn't help but murmur a little.
: "Won't Vivian throw Lily down on the way..."
Hao Ren looked far into the distance and spread his hands slightly: "It was already thrown down - it was thrown down as soon as it flew into the forest."
Nangong Wuyue: "..."
"It's okay. Lily's body is strong and she can be beaten twice without any problem. Moreover, this is something they both usually reserve." Hao Renhun looked away nonchalantly, "Every time Vivian flies out to relax at night, Lily still holds a
Slingshot is guarding her behind the window, these two are just like this, there is no cure."
Lily and Vivian, as the "high-speed combination" of the team, want to explore the situation at the Blood Lake Outpost together. However, in order to resist the stone giants on the ground, the Knights have set up layers of ground defense lines outside the Twisted Woodland, with various sensors.
There was almost no gap between the magic tower and the roving sentries. Hao Ren didn't want to cause trouble on unrelated matters, so he suggested that the two of them cross the defense line from the air. Lily couldn't fly, so of course she was carried over by Vivian——
The vampire girl is also real. She said she just crossed the defense line and threw the husky down as soon as it flew into the woods.
Yzaks and Betsy had left earlier, and now only Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue were left at the scene. The cold light of the twin moons shone down, and Hao Ren used the light to scan the Longji Mountains under the night cover, and put the data
The terminal was thrown into the air: "Teleport!"
"You're so lazy..." The data terminal turned into a blue light and disappeared in mid-air, leaving only one sentence that slowly dissipated in the air.
A moment later, Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue had arrived at a place nearly 100 kilometers away from the south of Leighton Town through the transmission function of the data terminal. This was where the strange collapse and deformation of the Longji Mountains occurred. Hao Ren had just recovered from the brief dizziness caused by the teleportation.
After recovering, I was shocked by the sight in front of me:
Hearing is worse than seeing. It is hard to imagine how the mountains must be deformed to form a "heavenly road" based on other people's descriptions. Now he knows why both Gelton and Ofra insist that the deformation in the southern part of the Dragon's Back Mountains is an ancient evil.
The power of magic: Under the night, the dark mountain was twisted into strange shapes like evil ghosts. Countless stalactite-like stalagmites were poked out from the mountain wall that should have been smooth and clear. There were dozens of small ones.
meters long, and the larger ones stretch across the sky. The so-called "Sky Road" is actually a super giant "stalagmite" extending out like this. The road is hundreds of meters wide, crossing the Leighton Mountain Ridge in the night sky, falling straight into the twisting
The deformed mountain in the forest cannot be formed naturally in any way, but there are no traces of artificial construction. If you have to describe it, it is more like "growing" out of the mountain wall.
The Leighton Defense Line can become a "defense line" because if you go from the Dragon's Back Mountains to the Twisted Woodland, you will encounter a "geological fold" that is lower than the mountains but steeper and harder to climb. This fold surrounds the Twisted Woodland, and Leiden
Dun Town is its only entrance, and when the stone giants first appeared, those huge monsters that were not good at climbing were blocked by this mountain edge. But now this mountain extends out of the Dragon's Back Mountains.
This "heavenly road" completely crossed the defense line from the air, and the stone giants could enter the Holy Land through this point almost unimpeded.
This "heavenly road" often collapses, changes shape, and even changes the landing point at the other end. The knights have no way to set up a fixed line of defense at its end. No wonder they are exhausted when dealing with this thing.
It's just that the intelligence of the stone giants is always limited. Except for their actions half a month ago, they don't know how to allocate superior forces to a group to attack. The stone giants will always pick the nearest stronghold to attack based on whichever mountain peak they fell from.
Otherwise, if all the monsters in the entire mountain range were mobilized and poured into the Twisted Woods from this sky road, no matter how religious the warriors of the Church Knights were, they would not be able to defeat so many monsters.
However, no stone giant has collapsed from the southern peak. It is also possible that the stone giant is dormant and Hao Ren did not notice any monsters wandering nearby. The majestic and strange boulder "heavenly road" is just quiet.
The ground stretched across the night sky, seemingly harmless.
Hao Ren raised the data terminal and shined it everywhere like a searchlight. The data terminal was puzzled by his behavior: "What are you doing?"
Hao Ren took it for granted: "Aren't you a sensor? I'm scanning the environment..."
The data terminal was stunned for a moment, then flew out of Hao Ren's hand and shouted: "Can't your brain function normally for once? Just say no to this computer!"
Then the data terminal emitted a faint blue light and roughly scanned the surrounding situation. After more than ten seconds, it returned to the good man's shoulders: "'Heavenly Road' itself has no residual magic energy. It is just a simple stone. The source of this abnormality should be
It’s inside the mountain.”
Hao Ren looked up and found a path to climb the "Heavenly Road" on the jagged mountain nearby: "Go up and have a look. I heard that the 'Heavenly Road' will dump people if it senses an outsider climbing on it.
'Go down, go up and try." As he said that, he looked back at Nangong Wuyue: "Are you waiting below or..."
"I'm not here to hold you back!" Nangong Wuyue puffed up her cheeks and put her hands on her hips, "The Siren has no other abilities, except that its ability to survive is at least better than yours. Exploring such a dangerous place is all about my ability, okay?
"
As Nangong Wuyue said, a burst of water mist suddenly appeared around her, blocking her vision, and she threw the frozen ball of clothes into Hao Ren's hand: "Help me collect it. Let me walk in front after you get up there.
, isn't it said that there is still miasma on the mountain road - I am the best at dealing with that thing."
Hao Ren put away Nangong Wuyue's clothes and looked thoughtfully at the other party's seemingly soft and boneless snake tail, and then at the rugged mountain wall: "Is your body structure suitable for mountain climbing?
Stop rubbing your belly bald..."
Nangong Wuyue swung her tail over and said, "See more of the animal world when you have time. You need to improve your brain!"
After saying that, she took the lead and twisted her body to climb up the mountain. Her body fit perfectly on those rugged rocks. She was graceful but very fast. Hao Ren quickly followed behind and ran up the mountain: "There is no special talk in the animal world."
A climbing snake..."
The two of them moved very quickly and soon arrived at the starting point of the "Heavenly Road". After climbing up, Hao Ren noticed that the part where the "Heavenly Road" connected with the mountain was not as abrupt as it seemed. There was a gap between the two.
It is quite a large transition zone with gentle terrain, and there are wide ramps extending out along the mountains on both sides of the "Heaven Road". It was just that these structures were not found below due to the angle. These gentle and wide slopes
The meaning of the transition zone is self-evident: it is to allow the stone giants to come here easily. After all, those monsters do not have the ability to climb cliffs.
"The 'design' is so sophisticated and thoughtful that it has nothing to do with man-made things." Hao Ren tugged at the corner of his mouth, preparing to find the real starting point of this twisted mountain from the terrain, but he frowned first.
He frowned, "What does it smell like?"
There was a strange smell like rotting vegetation in the air, and it was so subtle that it was almost indistinguishable. If Hao Ren didn't have extraordinary senses, people would have subconsciously ignored it or thought it was the normal smell of rotting vegetation in the mountains. However, Hao Ren didn't say anything.
A cool breeze containing water vapor blew away the strange smell. Nangong Wuyue stretched his arms and used water mist to disperse the surrounding poisonous mist: "This should be the so-called miasma. It is very dangerous, because it just
It is non-toxic when inhaled and will react in the warm environment of the lungs for a while before becoming fatal."
Hao Ren was immediately shocked: "I seemed to have inhaled it just now!"
Nangong Wuyue glanced at him sideways: "It's okay, my water mist can detoxify - and with your physique, you won't die if you inhale even a little bit."
Hao Ren feels that Nangong Wuyue is a girl with so many functions - she can cure diseases, heal injuries, detoxify, and provide a shield for the team. She is also a water-avoiding golden-eyed beast in special situations. You can use such a high-end assistant.
Where can I find it? The only problem is that I get scared whenever I get into a fight...
"Now we are testing how this mountain can 'feel' someone climbing the 'Heavenly Road'," Hao Ren looked at the huge stone long "bridge" across the sky not far away, "I want to take a look.
Who is staring here? By the way, if I fall later, remember to use space teleportation to pull me back. It would be uncomfortable to fall from such a height and be hit by dozens of tons of rocks..."
The data terminal slammed into Hao Ren's back: "Okay, okay, go your way!" (To be continued...)
