Chapter 201 The First Night

"Did you notice that there was a ferocious monster nearby? That's why you dragged us back?"

On the flat square in front of the Walled Temple, a pile of bonfires burned brightly. The intense heat wave dispelled the gloomy air and blocked the gaze of the ferocious beasts in the darkness.

Madison threw a piece of wood into the fire and said without paying much attention:

"In just half a day, we have seen enough monsters. Bloodthirsty lizards like cars, hard-shelled terrestrial giant crabs like pocket tanks, poisonous mosquitoes and flies the size of fists are certainly fatal dangers to ordinary people. , but in our opinion, it just looks scary."

"But what about an extraordinary behemoth that is hundreds of meters in size, extremely powerful, moves like the wind, and has strength above [Knight Level]?" Zhu Mingyao glanced at her.

The expressions of the girls suddenly became solemn. An enemy of this level, not to mention the moment when their power is suppressed, is enough to pose a fatal threat to them even if they are intact.

"Are you talking about the giant ape that caused havoc in New York seventy years ago? We have read the information, and it seems we didn't find any similar traces just now, right?" Zoe asked astutely.

Zhu Mingyao held a sharpened wooden skewer, threaded a few pieces of special compressed bread and roasted them over the fire.

"Since you have read the information, you should know how a group of mortal crew members captured the giant ape monster back then."

He carefully controlled the distance between the food and the flame, watching the bread absorb the heat and become soft, and continued.

"There were marks left by a giant reptile on the cliff just now. Each of its feet had four-toed claws, and its lower body was as slender as a snake. It should be the kind of skeletal giant lizard that fought the giant ape in the past. According to the description of the eyewitness, It is not only extremely ferocious, but also quite cunning. The environment at night is complicated, so we don’t need to take too many risks and wait until dawn before going deeper.”

After saying that, he took out a square object and placed it on the ground. He chanted a spell and made white smoke rise. A small room made of yellow paper talismans appeared. When he opened the door, the room was equipped with beds, tables and chairs made of paper. .

Zhu Mingyao grabbed two pieces of toasted bread and handed them over, waving his hands in a gentlemanly manner, "You guys go in and rest first, I'll be on duty all night."

Unexpectedly, he was so considerate. Madison pursed her red lips, tried hard to resist the desire to raise the corners of her mouth, and nodded slightly reservedly:

"Thank you so much. After my birthday party is over, I'm going to take a long trip and have a good time. Please come with me when the time comes. I will entertain you well!"

Zhu Mingyao agreed, and after the two of them had a rest, he took out a notebook and recorded all the terrain and products he had seen along the way since entering the secret realm.

The cool night wind blew by, and the bonfires swayed, reflecting the shadows of the stone buildings.

His spiritual sense, which was seriously affected by the laws of the secret realm, did not notice that in the shadow cast by the city wall on the sea, there were a few subtle glimmers rising and falling.

It seemed like... something was shaking slightly.

……

……

Two dots of blue fluorescence flashed, and a jaguar with purple and black magic patterns crawled on its body and silently moved towards a giant centipede that took advantage of the cover of the night to come out of the ground and gnaw on the rotten wood.

Even with a pair of sharp fangs and powerful enough venom, this large arthropod, which is more than one meter long, is still a rare meat head in the eyes of leopards.

At least it's easier to bully than those guys with all kinds of special abilities.

——Today is such a lucky day.

If the brain structure of the jaguar could be more complex, this is probably what you would think of.

Its limbs are tense, its strong tendons are tightened, and its muscles and bones transmit an explosive force in an instant, and it pounces towards the ignorant prey with lightning speed!
  The buzzing of insects all around suddenly stopped for a second, and then started to become noisy again. The oblivious giant centipede was still feasting, but the leopard had disappeared.

After a while, the centipede, which had eaten and drank enough, lazily crawled back to the ground. The tentacles on its head waved happily, telling its mood.
  ——Today is such a lucky day!
  "Sir Michael, I...should we continue to go deeper?"

The blond battle priest raised his nail-headed scepter and pushed aside a vine that was blocking the way. His teeth chattered lightly. A thin layer of protective holy light shrouded his body, as if a light bulb with poor contact flickered on and off. .

As night fell, the inexplicable suppressive force in the secret realm strengthened by three points, making it very difficult for him to hold on. In addition...

He looked at more and more black shadows around his "companion", and the fear in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

The rhinoceros with rock-like horny thick skin, the magic-patterned jaguar with sharp teeth and claws, the giant scorpion with protruding bone spurs on its chitin shell...

These creatures that looked tame and followed the young wizard, without exception, all looked haggard, with green phosphorus fire burning in their eye sockets, and they were obviously no longer alive.

"How strong is he...?" The blond priest swallowed, and was shocked in his heart. Under the same circumstances being targeted by the laws of the secret realm, he was about to lose his ability to cast spells, and yet he could easily transform a bunch of undead guards. , is the gap between people so big?
  Hearing his question, Michael's eyes flashed with a strange light, and the corners of his mouth curled up and his tone was as gentle as the spring breeze:

"Please be patient. Let's go to the front to do an experiment. After the experiment is over, we will return to the edge area. How about it?"

Although he was asking for advice in his words, his feet did not stop at all and he walked forward on his own.

Seeing this, the blond priest could only curse secretly, and then forced himself to follow.

……

……

The rotation of the sun and the moon has always been the same, and even the aloof Aztec gods follow the supreme laws of this world in their own divine domain setting.

The orange-red light shone down, and many strange and dangerous creatures completed their night foraging and returned to their respective lairs. The dense jungle seemed to be calm again.

In the square, on the bonfire that was mostly reduced to blackened charcoal, a few wisps of flames were still beating tenaciously.

With a "click" sound, Zhu Mingyao closed the note filled with various patterns and lines, and said hello to the girl who emerged from the phantom paper house.

"The place we walked yesterday has been mapped. You go and bury the spatial locator, and we can move on."

Watching the two little witches holding spatial positioning instruments shaped like celestial spheres walking around the city, looking for the best place to place them, Zhu Ming dazzled and ran back to the god with the blood pool sarcophagus. temple.

He stared at the Tezcatlipoca statue, which was full of jewelry that was full of aura, rubbed his hands like flies, and grinned with no respect.

You have already left the earth, and it is useless to keep this piece of stuff in your body, so we are not welcome!

After a short stay, the visitors from the outside world embarked on a new journey, leaving behind a few piles of bonfire embers in the square, emitting curls of green smoke.

Inside the temple, a slender figure quietly emerged. He staggered out with strange steps, glanced at the statue of the god that had become smooth, raised his orchid fingers, and sighed leisurely:

"Good guy, you are so clean! Is being a thief a legal profession in this day and age?
  This skill of searching for treasures is almost as good as what I used to be..."
