Fast Forward To three thousand and seventy seven

When the expedition wandered in the valley abyss, the rain in the crown level special area had stopped.

The sky was supposed to be cloudy, but it was empty over the sealed land!

Not to mention the lead gray dark clouds, even the normal clouds can not see a penny, and even can clearly see the gradually emerging stars and the unusually large bright moon wheel.

If someone stands at the top of the valley, he can find that the vast seal area has been covered by thick fog at the moment, and the only weak area is the central area, where some silver white flashes can be vaguely seen.

At one moment, at the bottom of the mountain wall in the southeast, a conical team rushed out.

Different from the formation when he came, Xu Jiu, wearing special glasses of the secret society, rushed in front this time. Behind him, the apostles were divided into two rows and extended to the left and right oblique rear.

The three colonels were in the front, and the cicada's apostles were in the back. Several mystics with weak combat ability were protected in the center.

This is the formation agreed by the expedition.

The reason is very simple. As Zheng Yi said, the dense fog covering the seal area can never be formed naturally, but the rich evil energy is close to the abnormal environment caused by substantiation.

This will inevitably affect the identification of the team's forward speed and direction. If the team is dispersed, if the team members are dispersed due to strange attacks, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Therefore, the whole expedition must be gathered at any time, at least until it reaches the temple.

Xu Jiu's strength, coupled with the glasses that can distinguish the evil energy, is enough to bear the responsibility of opening the way.

Since the destination has been locked in the central area of the seal, what Xu Jiu has to do is to ensure that he is always moving forward and will not be deflected by the dense fog.

Facts have proved that this is not an easy thing.

The cold fog filled every place in front of the body, and the visual distance was even compressed to one meter. Each step forward had to be baptized by these fog. The place touched slightly was like being crawled by caterpillars.

Running out of a distance, when Xu Jiu looked back, he could only see Zongze and Lindo on his side. The people behind him were only fuzzy silhouettes and crystal light tied around their waist in advance.

Xu Jiu didn't try to disperse the fog with fire or strong wind, but the effect was very poor. In the seal area, natural energy inevitably fell into a weak position against Shangxie energy. In order to force back the dense fog, he had to consume a lot of spar ability, which obviously outweighed the loss for Xu Jiu.

Because he couldn't see the temple, Xu Jiu had to control the distance by himself.

Keep scanning around, with the help of glasses to distinguish the area with the strongest evil energy.

It's a pity that we can't open the seal on the round bead at the moment, otherwise it will be much easier to look for the temple.

Da da~

The sound made by his feet when stepping on the water attracted Xu Jiu's attention. He looked down and found that pools of different sizes but with a lot of water began to appear in the grass.

It is said that it rained not long ago, and it is normal to have a pool, but there is a large area of grassland in the valley. Although there will be some sound of stepping on the water just now, it is limited to this. Most of the rain has already been absorbed by the grassland.

"Everyone pay attention to their feet, especially the pool, and try to avoid walking!"

Xu Jiuyi couldn't figure out the reason for this. At this time, he couldn't stop to observe carefully. He had to remind the people behind him first.

Some messy answers came, and Xu Jiu didn't look back, just kept moving forward.

Just at this time, a huge dark shadow suddenly appeared in the fog in front of the right. It was shaking and moving closer to this side.

"There's something in front right!"

First of all, it's an abnormal body shape to appear in this place. I want to know that it won't be fun. Xu Jiu's eyes are full of indifference. He didn't intend to get close at all. He raised his right hand and pointed to the dark shadow. The dark blue fire line suddenly shot out.

The hot line of fire ran straight through the shadow. To be on the safe side, Xu Jiu specially controlled it to wear several pairs, and then burned a small part of his arm and dragged it back.

A remnant arm filled with parts, most of which have been melted by high temperature.

"The mechanical puppet of relic civilization should be the guard arranged here."

Colonel Zongze had read the relevant materials before he came, and immediately opened his mouth to remind Xu Jiu when he found the items in front of him.

"Yes."

Xu Jiu, who has been to the undersea city, can naturally see its origin, but now more importantly, the dark shadow is still close!

Because it's a mechanical puppet, don't you care if the heart is penetrated

Throwing away the remaining limbs in his hand, Xu Jiu gathered the fire line again, but this time it was obviously stronger. It was easy to penetrate the position of chest and head and keep it for a period of time, so that the flame could completely burn the control elements in it.

I thought this would stop the mechanical puppet from moving forward. Unexpectedly, as soon as the fire burned, this guy ran faster.

What, is this thing still powered by heat?

With the distance between the two sides getting closer, Xu Jiu quickly found that there was a strong evil energy reaction on the mechanical puppet, and then suddenly realized that it had been eroded by the evil energy.

The two sides are still a few meters away, but Xu Jiu first noticed the abnormal vibration of the fog. Because the mechanical puppet stopped on the way forward, Xu Jiu can't ignore its existence.

The control element is destroyed, but it is still able to move flexibly. There is only one possibility that a strange person is controlling it!

At this time, the mechanical puppet who had rushed to Xu Jiu also confirmed this speculation.

Its shape is quite different from what Xu Jiu once saw in Haixia city. If the latter is a mass-produced mechanical puppet, then this one in front of him is definitely a painstaking work in the relic civilization.

Even if the damage is serious, the precise parts exposed at the gap of the mechanical puppet still make people look sideways, and what makes Xu Jiu care more is the gray and white fog swirling in its body.

Unlike the thick fog that can be easily removed around, these fog condenses into an amorphous gas, occupying the mechanical puppet and launching an impact on Xu Jiu.

This mechanical puppet also has many means. Rao was destroyed by the fire line shot by Xu Jiu repeatedly, and various weapons were displayed on his shoulder and intact left arm.

Unfortunately, it faces Xu Jiu.

Without waiting for the monster to become powerful, Xu Jiu had stepped close and punched in the air, directly smashing the whole mechanical puppet, together with the hidden monster, which was also smashed into the thick fog.

It didn't seem willing to fail. It expanded in an instant and surrounded Xu Jiu from all directions. The fog formed several vortices under its agitation, but it was pushed back by the fist again before it got close, and disappeared in the twinkling of an eye.

Knowing that it would be extremely difficult to kill them as long as they had evil energy supplement, Xu Jiu was too lazy to catch up, but turned to the people behind him and said,

"It's solved. There are strange things hidden in the fog. Pay attention to the flow of the surrounding fog... Be careful!"

In the middle of the conversation, Xu Jiu suddenly found that a cloud of fog suddenly rushed out of the residual arm of the mechanical puppet he had just thrown aside and went straight to the nearest secret instrument.

Obviously, the particularity of the mystics themselves makes them the priority targets of strange attacks.

Xu Jiu promptly reminded Madeleine, who was next to the guard, to notice the attack of the fog for the first time, and cut the small fog with a straight knife.

Perhaps because of its deformity, this strange fog lost its activity and integrated into the fog after being blocked.

Seeing strange, he retreated, and the mystic who was regarded as the target was reluctantly relieved.

However, no one expected that because of the strange advance of the fog, his steps inevitably appeared in chaos. Coupled with the relaxation just now, he stepped into a puddle the size of the washbasin in front of him.

Originally, it was just that his shoes were soaked in water. It was not worth paying attention at all. When he didn't want to go down, the whole man began to tilt. Before waiting for the reaction from the side, he seemed to step empty by the river and sink directly!

How powerful can a puddle the size of a washbasin look but a few centimeters deep?

The mystic thought so at first

However, facts have proved that the more common things in this sealed land, the more deadly!

Until the water covered half of his body and even reached the position of his neck, he looked blankly at the dense weeds and splashing water in front of him. His brain was like downtime and still didn't respond.

There is no doubt that the elites of these secret societies have a good understanding of evil deeds, but understanding does not mean that they have experience in fighting strange things.

You know, not everyone can get a lot of special knowledge after attending the awakening ceremony like Xu Jiu.

Without exception, these secret artists are one in a thousand or even one in a thousand. They have been trained by the secret society for many years. It is not surprising that they will be sent to the first scene to face the danger. In the face of this life and death crisis that will arrive in the blink of an eye, they are at a loss for a moment.

This sudden abnormal phenomenon also surprised Madeleine nearby, but it was the cicada deciduous apostle, whose reflex nerve was far more sensitive than the mystic. The latter was still waving his hand. Madeleine had grabbed his collar first and shouted at the same time,

"There's something strange in the puddle. Stop. I may need help!"

The march of the team stalled. Madeleine immediately tried to drag the mystic out of the puddle. However, she soon realized that things were not as simple as she thought.

A sink the size of a washbasin, even if it is not bottomed out, cannot squeeze an adult man into it.

The puddle is expanding!

Almost at the moment of realizing this, Madeleine's eyes looked at her feet. I don't know when the several puddles she had avoided have converged, and the water flow has converged abruptly.

No!

Madeleine's extraordinary ability could not support her to walk on the water. When she found that the ground under her feet changed suddenly, she immediately drew a knife again and inserted it into the normal ground next to her, trying to stabilize her figure.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I raised my hand here, the puddle under my feet seemed to have been predicted in advance. Suddenly, more than ten translucent tentacles formed by water gushed out, binding Madeleine and the secret instrument firmly.

Madeleine turned her hand gently holding the handle of the knife, and the storm of the blade broke the shackles of her body in an instant, but the result of doing so was that she completely lost the opportunity to stabilize her body shape, and the puddles under her feet spread, and both of them would fall into it.

At the critical moment, Albert on the other side of the team noticed that Madeleine was facing a crisis and immediately condensed several chains to drag them back to the shore at the same time.

The crisis was temporarily lifted. At this time, the puddles around the team began to converge at a high speed, as if they were one, but they were scattered everywhere before, waiting for prey to fall into the net.

Zheng Yi, who stood at the end, tried to destroy the process and avoid the strange from becoming the whole. However, when he started, he found that these puddles could not be completely eliminated. Even if he could suck up some of them with his ability, there were still more puddles emerging in the grassland.

Obviously, their source is not rain at all.

The team had to try to avoid these puddles. This retreat made the small puddles first become puddles, then become pools with a diameter of nearly three meters and continue to expand.

After that, some strange and difficult to move limbs and organs began to emerge in the pool, even mixed with these swollen eyes, staring at the marching expedition.

"The evil energy here is too strong. The strength and number of monsters are far greater than those of urban relics. Try not to entangle with them, which will only make us fall into a deeper dilemma."

Xu Jiu's earlier experience in urban relics made him clearly know that these monsters are completely derivatives of evil energy. It's meaningless to entangle with them. Only by solving the source of evil can they really disappear completely.

It's just that many things are easy to think, but it's very difficult to operate in practice.

Don't forget, as the source of evil energy, the closer the temple is, the higher the degree of danger around it.

Not far away, the fog over the expedition was stirred by something

"Air raid!"

Xu Jiu, who was aware of the strange, reminded him at the first time, and just as his voice fell, several monsters that had been bumped into inside and outside the valley before, with sharp corners on their heads and no sound during flight, swooped down quickly.

Their body shape has been enhanced compared with what we saw before, and there are more or less parasitic extraordinary organs on their bodies. When they move, they emit light of various colors. Obviously, these guys in front of them are the elite of the monster group.

Silent flight combined with fast steering ability, coupled with the field of vision masking of the dense fog itself, has brought the advantages of these monsters into full play.

There was only one face-to-face meeting between the two sides. The soil around the expedition first melted out a large area of mud, followed by a series of soil spikes, air cannons flying continuously in the thick fog and attacks formed by various elements.

They didn't intend to fight the expedition at close range, but harassed and obstructed their progress in this way. It's really disgusting.

At other times, Xu Jiu had rushed to heaven to let these guys know what politeness is.

The problem is that he is now the guide of the expedition. He can't leave without permission!
