The blood from Mr. Crocodile's wound has not yet condensed, and the body is still warm, indicating that it died not long ago, but Reina clearly felt that she had been trapped for several days. Horn could not have waited that long before taking action. Maybe that space gave her time
Swallowed.
There were no signs of fighting at the scene. Mr. Crocodile was not weak. Even if his wounds had not healed and his physical condition had not recovered, he could not be killed easily.
This can only mean that it was either attacked by surprise or plotted by a trusted person.
There is no mistake, the murderer is definitely Horn!
This is a huge building. Reina and Mr. Ball buried Mr. Crocodile with gravel as a grave. There are still some of Mr. Crocodile's precious dried meat in the camp.
The hungry Rena held back tears and ate them all. She would never let Horn go. The dried meat she ate would become her strength to avenge Mr. Crocodile.
But before that, she had to regain her strength. She knew that Horn was very strong, and she had to be fully prepared.
"Mr. Ball."
"I'm in Little Princess."
"I need your help..."
…
There are puddles everywhere in the wet temple. There is no connection to the outside world and there is no wind.
A strange figure was reflected in the water. The man's face was covered by hair, his eyes were very sharp, and there was a black cloak behind him.
"It's unbelievable that she actually escaped."
This is really incredible. In a place where any magic has no effect, she actually managed to escape, proving that she still has some secrets.
Horn came to a pile of stones. He could find out what was buried in the arched pile of stones without digging.
He half-crouched on the burnt ground, wiped the black floor with his index finger, and looked at it before his eyes.
"She started the fire here, well, about two hours ago."
He rubbed the black index finger with his thumb a few times to wipe off the carbon stains on it. Then he stood up, turned his head, and saw light black shoe prints on the ground, heading straight towards a certain place.
Horn's eyes were fixed on the line of footprints. The best people in this world who are good at tracking prey are hunters and explorers. As an experienced explorer, Horn can know a lot of information from a footprint.
He touched his chin and his eyes curved cunningly.
"The steps are too small. I didn't expect this silly girl to be so clever, but it's not easy to deceive me."
In some fairy tales, some smart animals will walk back on their own footprints to avoid being tracked by hunters. In fact, Horn also encountered this situation. The tracking footprints were suddenly and inexplicably interrupted, just like the prey suddenly flew into the sky.
It's like escaping to the ground.
Horn's mouth curved slightly. He had already noticed Reina's trick. She wanted to let the ball machine lead her away to buy her time to escape.
No, that's not right. With her character, she would like to kill me.
All in all, if you follow these obvious footprints, the last thing you see will definitely be the disappeared footprints. In a place full of puddles that can be washed away by water, it is normal for the footprints to disappear midway. If you follow this
If you leave your footprints, you will definitely waste a lot of time.
Moreover, this direction is not the direction they came from.
That little girl knew the dangers here, and it might be even more dangerous if she wandered around, not to mention she didn't have a cloak to protect herself.
Therefore, there is a high chance that she will return the same way, maybe preparing a trap, maybe resting, and of course there is a low probability that she wants to escape.
That last point was the wisest, but Horn knew she wouldn't choose that path.
"Don't blame me kid, humans are selfish."
Horn whispered, and then ran quickly along the original path...
In front of a huge stone door, there is a bottomless abyss. Reina and others climbed up from below.
A ball-shaped machine was leaning against the door frame, as if waiting for someone, with a long piece of grass in its mouth.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Mr. Ball said calmly.
A strange figure appeared in the darkness, and Horn walked out with a smile. The light shone on his hairy face, which looked very strange.
"Where is your terrible little master?"
he asked.
"Going down."
"That's weird."
Horn slowly opened his eyes and looked around. A breeze flew out of his body and spread in all directions.
Not here.
His eyes darkened.
Fooled.
Maybe she underestimated the girl's IQ, but she actually guessed that she would "see through" her scam.
wrong!
She might not have thought that far ahead at all! She deceived herself!
But why is this robotic ball here?
Just as Horn was thinking, a round shadow appeared in front of him.
Suddenly, Mr. Ball launched an attack on him, flying towards him like a cannonball.
Horn raised his head, stretched out his somewhat skinny right hand, and sand flew out like a splash of water from his palm. He actually blocked Mr. Ball's attack with one hand. He pressed his backhand, and a ball of sand pressed Mr. Ball to the ground.
.
Bang!
Mr. Qiu broke away immediately, but he found that the other party had disappeared.
"Oops!"
The other party actually had no intention of asking Mr. Ball about the whereabouts of Reina. He probably knew that Mr. Ball would not reveal any information even if he died, so he would not waste a single minute on Mr. Ball.
He turned back again, this time paying attention to his surroundings, and quickly ran back to the hiding camp.
This wasted a lot of time, and he even doubted whether the other party was hiding in the pile of stones. After destroying the tomb with his hand, he found that there was only the body of the crocodile inside.
"Cunning little rabbit."
Horn cursed secretly, and then chased after him along the black footprints.
Just as he predicted, the trail stopped after a while and also passed through a small puddle.
Maybe she'll hide in front.
He raised his head. In front of where the footprints disappeared was a very deep and huge corridor with dense entrances on both sides. This was a maze entrance, and it was difficult to get out.
Horn gritted his teeth.
This is indeed a good place to hide, but unfortunately, this is the only exit here, if he keeps guarding outside.
This is also impossible, he will not waste such a long time.
Horn bent down, knelt on one knee, grabbed his right wrist with his left hand, and pressed it to the floor.
"This will take a lot of time, but it is much faster than searching in the maze."
I saw the same magic power as the sand emitting from his hands. They sank into the ground and spread out in all directions like waves on the lake.
However, after almost an hour, Horn suddenly opened his eyes.
"You're not here! What's going on!"
Suddenly, a voice came into his mind: "Idiot! What are you doing! She is at the top! Go and catch her!"
Hearing this, Horn was shocked. He was the only one who knew the way to the top floor. How did that stinky girl find the way!
At this time, on the top floor full of treasures, a silver-haired girl lay in the gold and fell asleep soundly. What was pillowed on her pillow was a strange ancient pot. A map, no, it was an ancient book with detailed drawings.
The book of the tower map was placed on her belly, and there were some strange magic runes marked on the map.
