After three days of traveling without finding anything, finally on the evening of the fourth day, everyone who was looking for a place to spend the night found an exciting clue.
The stone was burned, but there was no ashes around it, and there were some things that looked like food fragments on the ground.
Heilig was sure at a glance that this was something left by Reina. If Chestnut was here, it would be able to smell Reina's scent, but he still searched for a while on the ground and finally found a few animal hairs.
This is the hair left by the shadowless cat. He is finally 100% sure that this is the trace left by Reina. She once spent the night here. The reason is that she is the only one who has the burning stone. The hunter left
There will definitely be embers in the bonfire.
"She was here, about a week ago."
He stood up and looked around, as if analyzing the direction Reina was taking.
In fact, this is not difficult, because Reina's route is easy to guess. As long as you know the direction of the twisted heart, you can basically find the path she takes.
"I finally heard some good news, ah~ I really want to see that little human girl soon."
The Enchantress yawned and said that they did not light a bonfire tonight because they had lost nearly half of their supplies due to the previous attack by the strange demons. They could save as much as they could now. After all, there was still a possibility of adding a new member.
"Human? It still feels unrealistic. I have never seen a human."
The Yalong girl Busi, who was sitting hugging her knees, said calmly.
"After all, humans live far away from here. I heard that they were almost driven out by the demon kings."
"Isn't that the same as us?"
"Oh, almost."
Youken and Faceless were silent. As the only believer in the Moon God Cult, Youken hardly spoke at ordinary times. At night, he would pray to the sky. In fact, he prayed to the moon, but on the second floor
It is rare to see a clear night sky. From here, the sky always has a layer of hazy clouds.
As for Faceless, he often sits on the ground motionless. Because he wears a mask, it is difficult to tell whether he is thinking or sitting and falling asleep. Heilig is used to living alone, and he will sit on the floor when necessary.
They can't speak, so except for the Enchantress Shia and the Aragon Girl Busi who are more talkative, others rarely speak.
As a result, the atmosphere in the team often became silent and a little awkward. Perhaps because clues were found and the mission finally became clear, the atmosphere is much better now.
After finding the clue, Heilig immediately determined the route. What's even more surprising is that Reina is only less than half a day's journey away.
So, at noon the next day, they saw a vision. There were many strange demons crawling around a mountain, as if there was an invisible wall blocking them. They seemed to want to climb the mountain, but they couldn't.
Dare to take that step.
The careful Heilig also discovered that some locust monsters jumped into it, but they were attacked by unknown means and lay motionless on the ground as if they were dead.
No one has ever seen or heard of this kind of vision. In the hundreds of thousands of years of Calderila's history of fighting against strange demons, nothing like this has ever happened. The only explanation is that it may be around that place.
It is poisonous, and the strange monster will be killed by the poisonous gas once it gets close.
This is the explanation given by the enchantress who is good at using poison. It does make sense. The second underground level is very deep. Sometimes there is a similar poisonous gas in a place like coral land. I heard from the hunters who survived.
According to the description, there is a smell like rotten eggs, and then your eyes will shed tears for no reason. If you stay there for a long time, you will feel headache and nausea. If you continue to go deep, you will die suddenly.
The second level has many dangerous areas full of poison gas, most of which are marked on the map.
For such forbidden areas, the best thing to do is to stay away from there. This is the experience of hunters. But what they don't know is that these places that are forbidden to them are a huge treasure house for humans, and there are many things in them.
Many precious resources can be developed and utilized.
Heilig's map was lost, so he could only use other people's maps. The other people's maps were the maps of the hive headquarters. Although it was very detailed, compared with the hunter's map, it lacked some of the hunter's notes.
In order to prevent the map from becoming full of graffiti, not all the modification suggestions put forward by hunters will be accepted. Hunters also like to draw some marks on the map to record some important things to them, but these things will not be synchronized.
into the hands of someone else's map.
Just like Heilig, he would mark on the map the places he had traveled and the safe places he had found where he could camp out.
The place in front of them was marked unknown on the map. Unknowingly, they had reached the depths of the second level, a dangerous place where few hunters set foot...
"What should we do? Should we go around or go to that mountain to have a look?"
Heilig turned his head and looked at Wu Mian behind him. At this time, he was stepping on a stone and looking at the scenery in the distance.
"Do you think the person we're looking for will be on that mountain?"
He asked in turn, and Heilig thought for a few seconds and replied: "To be honest, I can't say for sure. I can't understand her thoughts at all. But if she was on that mountain, she must have been injured."
She would hide, otherwise she would not let go of any fighting opportunity. I think she came here purely to find a strong opponent. But I can't figure out why those damn strange demons are surrounding them and don't dare to get close. As far as I know
As far as I know, she does not have this magical power..."
Hearing this, Wu Mian smiled, pinched his chin, and said while thinking:
"Haha, it sounds like she looks a lot like me. I really look forward to meeting her. So, does that mean that although it is unlikely, it is possible that she is there?"
"Um……"
Heilig replied uneasily. He knew that now was a race against time, and he could not hesitate for too long. A wrong decision could lead to thousands of deaths.
"Then let's split up. You go around here, avoid those strange monsters, and then meet on the other side of the mountain pass."
Wu Mian suddenly pointed far ahead and said.
"What? Do you mean? You want to act alone?"
Heilig looked at Faceless in surprise. This meant that he had to break into a circle surrounded by tens of thousands of strange demons alone. If Reina was not there, if the place was full of poisonous gas, and if Faceless was gone forever, then
what to do……
Thinking of this, Heilig was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. He was shocked as if he woke up from his sleep. When he looked up, he seemed to see a somewhat scary smiling face. If he looked carefully, it was
Mask on the faceless face.
"If I don't come back within a day and don't send a signal, then you continue to lead the team forward." After saying that, before Heilig could speak, he turned around and said to the resting people: "Now
We have to act separately. Heilig will be the captain during my absence, and you must obey his orders..."
