Fast Forward To 3077

According to Zheng Yi’s plan, the vine ball used as a temporary shelter does not need to descend straight into the abyss. It can reconnect to the rock wall after falling to a certain distance, and then find a chance to return. In situ, head to the seal land.

However, it turns out that Zheng Yi's ideas are somewhat naive.

Limited by the vines' field of vision, all he could see was the monster insect that Xu Jiu was facing, and he didn't notice the chaos higher up at all.

Zheng Yi underestimated the formidable power of landslides, so he naturally has to bear the costs that come with it.

When hundreds of thousands of boulders of dozens or even hundreds of tons were smashed down, he had no time to separate the vines to connect the surrounding rock walls, so he could only be continuously smashed down, trying his best to ensure The vine ball will not be completely crushed at a certain moment.

Change to other apostle, facing this kind of almost continuous pressure, I am afraid that it would have been crushed long ago, that is, Zheng Yi, who almost overdrawn his life before coming, forcibly raised his battle strength. apostle can be forced down.

I don't know how long it took, the vine ball finally stopped falling.

Standing in the center of the interior, Zheng Yi's face was pale, with cold sweat on his forehead, and several vines wrapped around his waist and legs to stabilize his figure.

all around I was completely plunged into darkness, even to the point where I couldn't see my fingers, I could only hear the muffled noise from time to time in the distance, which should be the sound of a rock falling.

But even so, Zheng Yi's senses quickly made Zheng Yi aware of a few heavy breaths around him. Although most of them are weak, they are not lacking. As long as they can breathe, they can recover.

Removing the "safety belt" on his body, Zheng Yi didn't care about his safety at this time. He directly took out a triangular crystal stone on his waist and threw it to the ground. Then there were three of them with the same specificity. Pathfinders unique to the district have several points of similar, and fist sized insects emerge from them.

The light blue fluorescence of the tail section illuminates the environment inside the vine ball.

Madeline and Albert are intact, drinking the medicine they carry with them to restore their state. In the end, they are the apostle of Cicada Moult Level. There is no doubt about their personal qualities, even in the previous chaotic situation. Self, as for others, are more or less a little bumped.

Fortunately, they are all within acceptable limits.

Only Xu Jiu is missing, but Zheng Yi is not worried about him. Since they can survive, Xu Jiu has no reason to be injured.

"Lindu, it's up to you."

Let the three fluorescent bugs surround the vine ball to create a small light source, Zheng Yi looked towards the "doctor" in the team.

"No problem, please move closer to me."

The woman who had exposed her hand in the ruins of the city before took out two bottles of potions. A few people said.

Zheng Yi was a little tired because he had consumed too much energy in a short period of time. He did not choose to lean over, but took a pill from his waist and swallowed it, and then asked Madeleine and Albert The two made a gesture,

"you two stay here, I will look around and stay vigilant. We will wait here for Xu Jiu to come, and then return to the ground together."

Zheng Yi remembers that Xu Jiu followed them down. Because he didn't know what was going on at the top, it was not a rational choice to act rashly.

Release the three fluorescent bugs, which means they can be used to mark them. If Xu Jiu finds out, he will naturally rush over immediately.

Looking towards the surrounding darkness, Zheng Yi's fingertips twisted a seed, light green rays of light flashed by, and the slender branches immediately wrapped around his wrist, a light bulb-like ball of light Extend it to serve as a illuminator.

When the former expedition came to the valley, in order to complete the mission, Zheng Yi and the others never considered entering the abyss to survey. Now that he came here because of an accident, he did not want to miss this opportunity. .

While Xu Jiu is not there, they can discover more information, so that Madeleine and the others can bring back an extra piece of information to accumulate experience for the third and subsequent exploration.

Zheng Yi sees the changes in the city’s relics and the strange appearance of the white ships on the sea. He tells people time and time again that the sealing mission is the most important. Isn’t he reminding himself that he doesn’t have time to go? Follow these mysterious ones.

The remaining energy must be devoted to his final task.

'What if I could live a few more years? '

Looking at the darkness in front of him that was so dense that it was difficult to dispel, Zheng Yi gave birth to some "superfluous" thoughts for no reason, and then shook his head and threw these unnecessary thoughts out of his brain.

Click~

A crisp cracking sound.

Zheng Yi figure stopped, looking towards the place where he stepped just before releasing his left foot, a piece of white bone was embedded on the ground.

'Remaining bones of alienated beasts? '

I didn't pay too much attention, and stepped forward, but before Zheng Yi went out a few steps, his steps stopped again.

On the clearing a few meters away, a giant skeleton lay quietly there. The ribs alone were more than ten meters long, and the spine stretched into the dark, making it difficult to see all of its appearance.

That’s all there is to it...

Suddenly he raised his hand, and the sphere of light that was originally only half a meter in front of the palm grew upward, releasing the rays of light. Also brighter.

The things that gradually emerged in the darkness caused his pupils to shrink suddenly.

I saw the bones of various creatures lying in the surrounding area of ​​more than ten meters. It looked like an open-air cemetery. Zheng Yi glanced roughly and immediately judged that these bones were there. This has already existed for a very long time, and a flow of air bursts out at random, and the bones that it touched will even be directly broken into bone meal.

There was a sudden flash of strangeness in the perception.

Zheng Yi retracted the ball of light and stared at his left front. The right hand was about to touch the bag, but the expression on his face was loose.

"Xu Jiu? "

The voice fell, Xu Jiu's silhouette appeared in the darkness, and a deep azure air current was dissipating behind him.

"Why are you alone? You are separated?"

Xu Jiu's eyes are full of strange colors, and his phantom ability allows him to control light and shadow at the same time. Greatly strengthened his eyesight, so even at the bottom of this abyss, his eyesight was enough to support him to move freely, while detecting the light sources around him.

"No, the others are behind, I just check the situation around, now that you are back, we will leave immediately and prepare to return... Is there any problem?"

Zheng Yi noticed something wrong with Xu Jiu's expression and couldn't help asking.

"I’m afraid it’s not the time to go back. In fact, I don’t really support going back to the previous route."

shook the head, Xu Jiu will shook the head of the group of monster insects I just met. The situation is briefly explained.

"Now they are most likely to still be entrenched in the rock walls high in the valley. If we go up like this, I am afraid that we will have to be buried once, which will only waste more time. ."

Pour a note of Flame Fist into the belly of a monster insect. Xu Jiu doesn’t know if it’s dead, but its family will definitely find ways to retaliate. The previous massive collapse of the rock wall was The best proof.

"Then what should we do, can't we just wait here, right?"

After hearing Xu Jiu's description, Zheng Yi couldn't help being sighed. He was sighed last time. I haven't encountered these monster insects.

In other places, the expedition team is not afraid to fight with these reptiles at all, but it is now in the mountain within the valley. It can be said that this is the nest of these monster insects. They will only suffer from conflicts.

Heaven knows how many such monster insects are hidden in the huge mountain range on both sides!

"Aren’t we already walking on the flattest road?"

Xu Jiu spread his hands and asked shrugged back,

" Do you mean to lean over from the bottom of the valley?"

"Yes, I just looked at the direction when I came down from the top, as long as I walk in the direction behind me, I should be able to walk to the other end of the valley, when the Time comes just think of a way to go up."

Compared with the group of Giant Insect and the chaotic gorge within the valley environment, the bottom of this abyss is obviously more stable.

Not only that, Xu Jiu also found some interesting things not far away.

Different from Zheng Yi and the others trying to preserve themselves in the vine ball, Xu Jiu relies on his own ability to retreat with ease.

So as he dived into the abyss, he still had room to distract and observe the surroundings.

The abyss of the valley is not as deep as imagined.

It has a bottom, and it is not far from the ground...

Of course, this is a relative statement.

In fact, the depth of this abyss or deep valley is about kilometer or so. As far as the expedition team is concerned, it is not too difficult to climb this deep valley.

Because of this, Xu Jiu gave Zheng Yi this suggestion.

Rather than go up and fight either the fish dies or the net splits with the group of monster insects that bury people at every turn, it's better to find another way.

Furthermore, as Xu Jiu said above, there are indeed some very special things in this abyss. He originally just flew two laps at random after landing, and finally gained far surpasses the imagination.

The entire group converged again. Colonel Linduo’s treatment had just ended, and several occultists who had been frightened by the free fall at a height of one thousand meters quickly recovered.

"That many...strange insect appeared on the top before. It is difficult to guarantee that there will be no more terrifying creatures at the bottom of this abyss. Is this choice likely to make us fall into Passive position?"

When Zheng Yi told everyone about Xu Jiu’s thoughts, Madeleine expressed her opinion after a brief silence.

"In fact, we can choose to compromise The way to get out of the abyss, without returning to the surface, just lean forward along the rock wall in the middle section. This may reduce the risk."

This is a compromise method, which sounds good, provided that But there will be no other monsters hidden in the middle.

"You can try, but before that, I still hope you can go and see what I found, not far from here, when the time comes, you might have other ideas."

Xu Jiu did not directly deny Madeleine’s plan, but pointed his finger in the direction when he came. Others have no objection to this. Anyway, they are already at the bottom of the abyss. Take one more section of what the road can't be considered.

This time the team was led by Xu Jiu. Because it was stepping on flat ground, the expedition team changed to running forward, and soon arrived at the place where Zheng Yi had discovered a large piece of alienated beast bones.

The three fluorescent worms flew around and immediately found that there were huge alienated beast skeletons everywhere in several hundred meters, the scale of which was much larger than Zheng Yi had imagined.

"The cemetery of a certain alienated beast group?"

Zong Ze has encountered similar scenes in other special areas before. Alienated beasts of the same race will go to after death A specific area.

"No, look at the surrounding skeletons carefully. They come from different alienated beasts. I have observed a few of them just now, and there are more or less scars on them."

Raise your foot to kick a tooth about the size of an adult, Xu Jiu said solemnly,

"This is not a cemetery, but a battlefield. You'll know if you keep going."

Across many skeletons from alienated beasts, as the team continues to move forward, more things appear in front of everyone.

"Wait, look, this...Is this a weapon fragment?"

A colonel on the left side of the team suddenly stopped the team and walked over. A piece of metal fragment was pulled out from the gap on the side of the spine that he didn't want. Even after an unknown period of time, its edge still flashed cold glow under the fluorescent light.

This is obviously impossible as a naturally occurring metal ore.

There are two. With the discovery of special metal fragments, the expedition team soon found a large number of items that prove that this was a battlefield.

Most of them are fragments of cold weapons, and occasionally there are still some fragmented crystal stone and scepter-like items.

"The war that year seemed to be tragic to the extreme, and the two warring parties were also somewhat special."

Ascendant Light hit the ground, Xu Jiu leaned against the end of the knife handle, leaning to the side. Several people said.

In the open space in front of everyone, there are two "entangled" skeletons.

One side looks like a dog, with a big bloody mouth wide open like a sacrificial bowl. The fangs penetrate the shoulder blades and ribs of the other skeleton, and the person on the other side obviously also not to Be trifled with, the hand is already mutilated, most of the long sword also penetrates the former's heart.

The enemies who fought in blood, after so many years, have become each other's pillars, standing in the center of the battlefield, looking really ironic.

What's more surprising is that the body shapes of both sides in the battle are a bit too peculiar.

Xu Jiu looked up at the knees of a humanoid skeleton that was almost equal to his own height. The height of his body was converted according to this ratio, nearly ten meters, and the dog and beast fighting him stepped on all fours. At the time, the shoulder height was definitely more than 15 meters...

"The giant in the era of relic civilization?"

The so-called relic civilization refers to the original site of the special area. In the era, this is the only reasonable explanation for what everyone sees right now.

A simple humanoid alienated beast impossible to create this kind of horrible weapon that can survive over the years!

"The same skeleton still exists around, proving that this giant is not alone at the bottom of the abyss, they are a team...even a well-trained army!"

Madeleine retracted her gaze to look around, and said with a touch of surprise in her eyes,

"What is their purpose here?"

"That's why I want you to come and take a look. This is just an appetizer. The things in front are more special. Don't stare out your eyes when the time comes."

Xu Jiu mentioned Ascendant Light, strode forward, and said as he walked, "You all forgot a little, the temple in the seal land mentioned by Zheng Yi did not grow out of thin air. , It must have been built by someone, and if you want to build a large building in this area close to the forbidden area of ​​mankind, the forces that can complete this kind of project are absolutely extraordinary!"
