I became a member of the ancient gods

Chapter 43 Miss me?

"Food?" Xu Zhongyi perked up.

He had ten years of hunting experience, and he had an idea at a glance. There were pieces of meat left on the ground, which were probably leftover food residues eaten by the apostles.

Abyssal creatures also need to eat. They will hunt animals and abyssal creatures with lower evolutionary levels, and their favorite food is humans.

The blood was still shiny and had not yet dried, indicating that it had just been left there not long ago.

"I'm going to check it out." Xu Zhongyi stepped forward alone with the instrument and pointed it at the pieces of meat on the ground.

No matter what kind of meat it was, if it was leftover from the apostles, there should be saliva on it.

Soon, Xu Zhongyi saw the test results on the display on the handle of the instrument. There was indeed a reaction from abyssal creatures, and the tissue was still active. It was estimated that the time would not exceed three hours.

Xu Zhongyi held his breath. This basically confirmed that the apostle was deep in the cave!
"Response, the target may be in this direction!" He whispered and used the intercom and communication headset built into the helmet to communicate with his teammates.

He subconsciously turned his head and looked behind him.

This was his habitual action. He usually looked behind Lin Zhong to confirm his opinion. This time, he looked at Irene.

Erin looked around and saw that there were actually forks here. The piece of meat appeared in one of the forks. The tunnel became obviously narrower here.

"The last time I checked over there, the innermost side seemed to be a dead end." Erin reminded.

"But didn't we discuss before, is there any hidden space in this cave that we haven't found? Maybe it's here!" Xu Zhongyi said.

No matter whether it was the investigation a month ago or their previous raids, they could not find the real apostle.

Before setting off this time, they had discussed that there might be a space with a hidden entrance to this cave, and the real apostles were hiding and operating there.

"The apostle's intelligence is no less than that of a human. Its lair has only been attacked by humans. It should be more cautious now." Irene said seriously.

When Xu Zhongyi heard this, he reacted suddenly.

This apostle was originally very cautious and had been operating in places where they could not find them. After the nest was attacked, he should have been more cautious, either abandoning the nest and leaving, or continuing to hide in the depths, but now he suddenly left traces of eating on the path of the nest. , and it happened to be when there was a fork in the road.

"This side is so narrow, there might be something wrong inside. You come out first, and we'll explore the other side first." Eileen concluded directly.

"Okay." Xu Zhongyi agreed immediately.

At the same time, deep in the cave, Lin Zhong saw Xu Zhongyi turning around through the camera window on the helmet display.

He installed a camera near there, which is where he set the trap.

The amount of explosives he brought was not large, and it could only exert sufficient power in a narrow place.

In order to lead them to the narrow side of the side road, he laid the guiding traces.

As a result, only Xu Zhongyi entered the explosion zone for investigation.

Lin finally couldn't hear the conversation in their communication headsets, but seeing that no one else was following, Xu Zhongyi suddenly turned around, and he immediately realized that someone had seen the clues.

He guessed that person was Irene, and Xu Zhongyi probably wasn't so careful.

Now that they are suspicious, they may not go in again. When they come back after checking out other areas, they will probably check more carefully, just in case they find a trap...

Thinking of this, Lin Zhong made a quick decision and pressed the detonation switch at hand.

The next moment, two packs of explosives hidden on the top of Xu Zhongyi's head and on one side of the rock wall exploded at the same time. With a loud bang, shock waves and gravel hit Xu Zhongyi. The "heavy armor" automatically opened in an instant to absorb the impact for him and block the Those bullet-deadly bits of gravel.

This level three abyssal relic is quite reliable as a life-saving weapon, and it is also what Xu Zhongyi relies on to dare to walk in the forefront alone as an assaulter.

Smoke and dust obscured his vision, and large chunks of rock collapsed. A huge boulder that could break a person's cervical vertebra fell on Xu Zhongyi's head, and the impact was absorbed by the heavy armor and rolled to one side.

Xu Zhongyi was startled by this sudden situation. He subconsciously ran in the direction of other team members, but he hit a pile of rocks. The dust was flying and he couldn't see the situation clearly. At the same time, the top of his head continued to collapse, and he continued to wait. Here he will be buried!
Xu Zhongyi could only change direction and charge, relying on his "heavy armor" to push through the rocks falling like a rainstorm.

The tremor quickly subsided and Xu Zhongyi turned around. A large amount of rubble had been piled up in the passage behind him.

"Irene!?" He immediately yelled worriedly.

"We're fine. Only the area where you were standing exploded." Erin's voice rang in his earphones.

Xu Zhongyi heaved a sigh of relief.

"Ayi, that was explosives just now, there is a problem here!" Irene reminded.

Xu Zhongyi had also realized that they had thought that there might be a trap on this side, but they never expected that explosives would be buried in the passage. This was definitely not something that abyssal creatures would do.

If Erin and the other three had just followed them into such a narrow passage, they would have been seriously injured on the spot.

He suddenly felt a little panicked. The explosion separated him from other people, which made him feel very insecure.

He immediately checked the stones piled up in the passage. The power of the explosion was not too strong. It did not completely destroy the passage. It only caused the rock wall and the top to collapse and partially buried the bottom. In fact, there was a little more space above. The shape of the passage was due to the The pile of rubble becomes irregular, but with a little time and a little digging you should be able to get it wide enough for a person to pass through.

"You guys wait a moment."

Xu Zhongyi put away his "heavy armor" and prepared to open the "Giant's Right Hand" excavation channel.

But at this moment, there was a gunshot, and the "heavy armor" suddenly turned on automatically again. A bullet hit his body and was blocked by the "heavy armor".

gun! ?

Xu Zhongyi turned around in shock and saw a figure in protective clothing appearing out of thin air behind him, pointing a pistol at him.

The searchlight of Xu Zhongyi's helmet penetrated the gray fog in the cave, penetrated the opponent's helmet mask, and illuminated the man's face.

His heart stopped for a moment at this moment.

Standing in front of him was Lin Zhong whose heart had been blasted by him a few days ago!
"I haven't seen you for a few days, good brother, do you miss me?"

Lin finally gave Xu Zhongyi a cold smile and directly pressed the trigger of the gun.

Eileen heard the gunshots on the other side of the passage and immediately started calling: "Ayi? Ayi!"

With the third-level abyssal relic "Heavy Armor" in her possession, Xu Zhongyi should be unlikely to be killed by a sneak attack, but her call did not receive an immediate response.

Suddenly, she noticed something, turned around and raised her gun. The two mercenaries immediately stood in front of her without her opening a word.

Fran walked slowly from the depths of the cave and appeared in the direction where her gun was pointing without fear.

The apostle's response alarm immediately began to sound in Erin's helmet, and at the same time Fran's body was marked with a red outline in the display screen of her mask.

"Huh?" Irene put down the gun in surprise and observed Fran carefully.

"The two people in front can leave." Fran's cold gaze directly passed over the two male mercenaries in front and locked on Irene, "And you must die."
