Chapter 3356 The Trial of the Great Fool (One Hundred and Fifty-Nine)
When everyone heard Elaine talking about this, their expressions suddenly became serious.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Elaine kept talking on her own: "Wait, wait until late at night, when the brightness of the city drops, and then we can sneak away in the dark?"
This is the only reliable method he can think of at the moment. Although the plan is still very rough.
"What about the guards outside?" Xuri didn't even object and naturally joined the discussion.
"How about moving the cavalry to the second floor and secretly flying out of the second floor window?" Edmund said: "The window is so big that it is enough for the cavalry to come in and out. Before going out, use a magic mirror to prevent people outside from peeking, and disable it when you go out.
Mirror, turn on the cavalry's concealment device, and sneak through the whole process?"
"Okay, that's a good idea." Elaine thought for a moment: "But Zuo, Zuoli, how good is the eyesight of the Aters?"
"It's just so so. The eyesight of most Yate people is not as good as mine." Hayato boy replied: "In a place like this, you often can't help but stare at the glowing heat pipes. Staring at them for a long time will hurt your eyes."
Over time, their eyesight becomes worse."
"So, why are you staring at that kind of thing..." Elaine covered her head. How stupid are those half-murlocs...
"Because you have to cook and keep warm. And you have to be careful when walking, don't hit it and get burned by it." Xuli touched his eyes: "I have eyelids, but they don't. They want to close them.
Even if you can't block the light from your eyes, it will naturally become like this."
By the way, fish don't have eyelids. It was only then that Elaine remembered that this was the case.
No wonder these stalkers must choose to sleep at night when the light of the light beam becomes weaker. Because the light in "daytime" is too strong, they can't sleep even if they don't have eyelids.
Wait, that's not right...
"So, can't they get a piece of cloth to cover their eyes or something..."
"What are you talking about?" Zuoli complained: "The fabric here is very precious. It can only be made from the silk of Kumor spiders, and there are very few Aters who know how to weave. It can only be used to make clothes."
This is the limit, and you actually use it to blindfold your eyes? Isn’t it too extravagant?"
Yes, this is a primitive society after all. Elaine covered her face again.
It is not an exaggeration to say that these stalkers are "so poor that they only have a pair of pants." Compared to this, Elaine and his group, who are wearing all the clothes and wearing the holy cloth as a scarf, are simply like suddenly
The rich man appeared in front of these poor barbarians. No wonder the stalkers looked at Elaine and the others with such burning eyes.
If stalkers are so obsessed with fabric, Elaine has another way to attract their attention.
"If possible, I hope not to have violent conflicts with the people here." Xuli added, "I still don't want anyone to get hurt or bleed because of this."
"I, we will try our best." Elaine blinked and stared at Hayato: "You, you want to escape from here so much, why didn't you escape before? There should be a lot of opportunities, right?"
"Don't be ridiculous, what can I do if I escape alone?" Zuoli was very calm: "The upper floors of the maze are full of monsters and murder traps? Even if I can escape to the surface, it is said that there are countless man-eating sea monsters in the sea.
Oh? It is said that it is a world of ice and snow outside? There are barbaric humans on the land? They will catch a little bird like me and roast it to eat? Where should I escape?"
(Indeed. Although it is not as exaggerated as he said, but it is true.)
"I have turned into a bird egg and been reborn so many times. I must have turned into an adult or even an old man in my previous life, right? At that time, I didn't even think about escaping, which proves that I didn't have the conditions to escape at all.
."
Elaine frowned. Xury didn't seem to know that Atlantis surfaced once every thousand years.
In the past, Xury may have known that he was trapped in a city deep under the sea. Even if he wanted to escape, he could not escape from Atlantis (he would be instantly crushed by the water pressure!), so he kept dormant. He was reincarnated so many times.
Many times, until today, until this great opportunity came once in a thousand years, and then he was lucky enough to meet Elaine and his party.
This is probably the last chance for Xuli.
"Ming, I understand." Elaine washed her face and climbed out of the bath: "Everyone, has it cooled down? Hurry, dry your body quickly and go to bed. I, let's go to bed earlier than them. While they are asleep
When the time comes, we wake up and run away."
"But it's still very bright here." Young Hayato complained.
Elaine pulled off a long strip of cloth from the holy cloth: "Use, use this to cover your eyes."
Xuri watched with a surprised expression as he watched the piece of holy cloth immediately return to its original shape after a strip of cloth was torn off, as if it could multiply indefinitely.
"The outside world is really full of weird things." He sighed.
"Yes, yes. For example, if you follow us, you will see more strange things." The white lion boy took out a big towel from his storage pocket and wiped his body: "Compared to living in this wild place."
Land is a thousand times more interesting."
Hayato's eyes became bright, and he didn't know whether it was because of anticipation or emotion, or both.
"Brother, do you want Uncle Queeg to bring the tent over, and then put ice cubes next to the tent and sleep cool in the tent?" Bailey asked after putting on clean clothes.
"Ice, ice cubes..." Elaine looked at the rubber boat beside him. The water in it had not been collected yet. Logically speaking, he should turn into a human boy and use his telekinesis to collect the water. But he didn't want to at the moment.
Using the Transformation Technique, the less he transforms, the less damage his body will suffer.
"I'll freeze this bath and make the best use of it." Edmund said, turning into a stalker: "Will Queeg come to take a bath? You can wait until he finishes washing first and then freeze it."
"I, I'll ask him. But he doesn't seem to like taking a bath..."
"Let him wash it quickly, even if he doesn't want to." Xuli said, "The eyesight of the Yat people is average, but their noses are good. If the leopard smells like sweat, it will expose our whereabouts."
"Okay, okay." Elaine ran downstairs.
"Taking a bath?" After hearing Elaine's description, Queeg showed a troubled expression: "But, I'm not dirty."
"You, you have sweated." Elaine emphasized again: "Quickly, get rid of the smell of sweat on your body, otherwise it will affect our plan."
"But, the scars from chickenpox are still..."
"Wouldn't it be better if you soaked in the water for a while and didn't scratch the scar?" Elaine wondered: "Oh, by the way, here, this is for you."
"Is this?" Queeg took the small bottle containing green liquid.
"Thick, concentrated chlorhexidine gluconate. Disinfectant. Put this, this into the bath water. It will be useful for recovering acne scars."
"Is it not poisonous? OK, contact with skin?"
Elaine rolled her eyes at Leopard: "Here, after dilution, this can be used to prepare mouthwash. Do you think it can come into contact with the skin?"
"Okay..." Leopard accepted the disinfectant and reluctantly went upstairs to take a bath.
"Do you want me to rub your back?" Elaine said half-jokingly.
"No need," Queeg replied with a blush.
The white lion boy frowned.
"Seriously, what's the matter with you?" He expressed the doubts he had hidden in his heart for a long time: "You, you don't hate bathing, but you resist taking a bath with us, right? We are all men,
What are you afraid of? Did someone do something that disgusted you? Was it Bailey touching you? Or was it Edmund?"
"No." Leopard also frowned: "You are here and you are talking nonsense."
"Then, why do you hate washing with us so much? There must be a reason, right?"
"Really not."
"real?"
"Why do you need to ask more questions? You are so annoying." Queeg wondered.
"I, I don't want to be separated from you because of this matter. Yes, if there is anything you hate, just say it clearly. Don't make us speculate in fear. This, this is very tiring."
"Exactly." Leopard smacked his mouth, as if he was unwilling to tell the truth, but he had no choice but to say: "Yours is very big. Edmund is even bigger. It's very uncomfortable to compare with you."
"Then, that...?" Elaine looked at her crotch along Queeg's line of sight, and suddenly understood what Queeg was talking about: "You, what are you talking about? What's too big!"
"It's big, for a kid." Queeg snorted, "Bigger than me. Damn."
"You're just a child! Are you, are you stupid?" Elaine covered her face: "This, this is copied from Leo's body. Lion, the size of the lion-human race is normal! This is one of the racial advantages, leopards and
Lions are incomparable, so give up!"
"Then you can turn into a bear when you take a shower?" Queeg said again: "He is a big guy, but that one is very small. I don't envy him."
"You, how do you know? When did you notice it?!" Elaine blushed: "You, do you always stare at others?"
"Of course. We have to compare." Queeg said matter-of-factly. Then he received a heavy punch from Elaine head-on.
Looking at Queeg lying on the ground, Elaine rubbed her fists: "Huh! I beat something boring again."
Three hours later.
Queeg got up from the bed and rubbed the left side of his face involuntarily. His face was a little swollen, although the force of Elaine's punch was not actually strong.
The surrounding light dimmed.
"Hey, is everyone awake?" Elaine crawled out of the tent: "Yes, we have to take action."
"...Five more minutes of sleep..." Zuoli lay there unwilling to get up.
A blue vein appeared on Elaine's forehead.
"Brother, don't be angry, leave it to me." The little fox walked over with a smile and took a feather from Hayato's forehead.
"...Ouch!" Zuoli jumped up. As soon as he jumped up, Bailey covered his mouth: "Shh!"
"Oh...is it time to take action?" Hayato boy touched his head: "Can you use other methods to wake me up in the future? If you pluck my feathers like this, I will be bald sooner or later."
"You're lazy, it's better for a lazy guy to be bald." Elaine said angrily.
"That's too much~" Zuoli stuck out his tongue.
"Stop playing around and get down to business." Edmund took advantage of the darkness (actually it was just the light dimming) to push the cavalry up from downstairs. At this time, all the windows on the first and second floors were blocked by Edmund's ice cubes.
The magic mirror turned into is sealed, and people outside cannot see the situation inside the house. In addition, the light is dimmed, and the movement inside the house is even more difficult to detect. Everything is perfect.
Queeg also went downstairs, preparing to bring another iron cavalry to the second floor.
The load capacity of the iron cavalry was limited, so they could only try to spread the number of people into two iron cavalry according to their weight. So Edmund and Queeg rode on one iron cavalry, while Elaine, Bailey, and Xury rode on another iron cavalry.
The little fox sat in front of Elaine, Elaine was in the middle controlling the cavalry, and Xuri sat behind and hugged Elaine's waist tightly. This configuration was a bit crowded... and very hot.
If Elaine hadn't already smeared a lot of frozen rosin on the small dagger amulet for cooling, he would have been sweating by now.
"Okay, let's go." The white lion boy lowered his voice and said, "Edmund, get rid of the ice."
Edmund, who became a stalker, lifted the magic near the window, and the ice blocking the window gradually melted. Naturally, Elaine and his cavalry had already turned on the concealment device, and they were almost invisible under a layer of optical camouflage shield.
Nearly transparent. The light in the room has become so dark, and they are even harder to detect.
Elaine drove the iron cavalry forward at a slight speed, tilting the iron cavalry slightly to the right. The three of them sitting on the iron cavalry pressed tightly against the body of the iron cavalry and remained motionless. In this way, the iron cavalry could just pass through the large space.
square windows.
Elaine's ability to control the iron cavalry was relatively average. He could barely make the iron cavalry go through the window, although part of the fuselage still scratched the window. He was a little worried about Queeg, because Queeg's control level should be worse than him.
Could their cavalry be stuck directly on the window?
Unexpectedly, Queeg activated [Virtualization], making the people on the iron cavalry and the iron cavalry translucent. The iron cavalry directly penetrated the material without colliding with the window at all, and escaped safely.
It's really omnipotent, this [virtualization] ability.
Elaine complained a little in her heart, and then glanced at the ground outside the house. There were several guards there, sitting on the ground monitoring the situation inside the house. Two of the stalkers had begun to doze off with their eyes open and their heads shaking.
It was shaking. They obviously didn't see that the house was empty. Moreover, they didn't expect that there would be a cavalry flying away from the second floor, and they didn't even look up.
Even if they look upward, more than forty feet above the ground, the cavalry with the concealment system on is not that easy to detect. Even under normal lighting conditions, if you look carefully within ten feet, you can only
An unnatural bubble that twists the air is seen. If you want to see through the cavalry with the naked eye, you must either get close enough (within five feet), or the cavalry is moving very fast.
"Very, very good," Elaine lowered her voice and used the communicator to contact Queeg: "Just, keep quiet like this, raise another ten feet in height, and then slowly fly away from the city. Xuri, here, reach the next level.
In which direction is the stairwell located?"
Hayato boy pointed in the direction of three o'clock: "Over there."
Elaine then changed the flight direction of the iron cavalry and advanced at a speed close to walking speed. In this darkness, the two iron cavalry bypassed the city, avoiding eyes and ears, and sneaked in a low profile.
