Chapter 1598: Fiery Fire Burns Strange Bird
Seeing the black shadow monster and the giant trilobites all running away in panic, we were all stunned and speechless.
What was that loud roar that came from deep underground just now?
Is that really a suppressed dragon?
I specifically looked at Lina's hand, and sure enough, it was exactly as Jiang Dayu said, clenched into a fist.
This was a special habit that was extremely difficult to change, and she was indeed somewhat uncontrollably excited.
Pike said that the nightmare of the William family does exist, but they just hid the most important part from me and didn't mention a word about the evil dragon!
Lina is very knowledgeable and proficient in various high technologies, but does she know too much about the situation in the underground palace? Even before she got into the water, she knew far more than I did except dragons.
All the monsters fled in a hurry, and after several waves, the water surface returned to calm.
"Let's go." Fan Chong took a deep breath and said calmly.
Fortunately, Fan Chong was here just now. If he hadn't relied on his extremely rich sailing experience, even if those trilobites were not directed at us, they would have knocked us over and then been killed by those giant guys. Squeezed into a patty, it was swallowed by the black shadow.
Although the danger has passed for the time being, we did not dare to be careless at all and hurriedly accelerated forward.
The area of this underground lake is extremely huge. The section we want to cross is just a small narrow bay. After this emergency escape, we have already deviated from the direction. After Lina corrected the position several times, we finally headed back to the right path.
As soon as the airboat docked, I boarded it first and checked it carefully. I found no danger, and then I called the two of them ashore.
We took a short rest, put away the airboat, hid it in the crevices on the shore, tied the corpse-like Pike to Fan Chong, and continued to move forward.
The road up from the shore is very bumpy, or it can’t be called a road at all!
There are stone cliffs that reach the top on both sides, and the narrow path in the middle is full of large and small gravels. Because it was near the water, the humidity was very heavy, and it was covered with a very strange black moss, which was both smooth and slippery. If you were not careful, you would fall down.
I'm okay. One of Lina and Fan Chong had an injured leg, and the other couldn't see anything. It was very difficult to stumble around.
And I want to alert the surroundings and protect everyone's safety, but I can't be of much help.
call!
Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly jumped out of the rock cliff beside me and went straight to my throat.
My nerves had been tense for a long time. When I saw the black shadow coming out, I threw out the invisible needle in my hand.
"Gah!" The black figure was instantly stabbed with dozens of transparent holes by invisible needles, let out a scream, and fell down.
But then, hundreds of black shadows jumped up from both sides of the stone cliff.
"Quack!"
The sound was extremely harsh and uncomfortable.
"What the hell?" Fan Chong waved his sword and asked in shock.
Lina pulled out a small alloy crossbow from nowhere and stood in front of Fan Chong nervously.
I took out the ghost-slaying swords from their sheaths and held up a flashlight to shine. Only then did I realize that the black figures were actually a group of strange birds.
It is more appropriate to say that they are birds, rather than bats. These guys don't have a single feather on their bodies. They are all black and shiny, as if someone has painted them with a layer of black paint.
It has a long pointed beak and two extremely sharp short claws, and it keeps flapping its wings as thin as flesh skin, whistling in the wind.
They are simply a group of truly strange birds.
These guys didn't rush towards us, but kept hovering in the sky, staring at our every move with a pair of shining little eyes.
What kind of thing is this, I can’t tell!
Maybe these guys have never seen a human being. I killed one just now, which made them quite afraid and didn't dare to attack easily.
Although these guys didn't attack, they didn't move away either. They kept circling around us, squawking and screaming like a dead daddy.
If they don't disperse, we don't dare to act rashly.
Judging from the sharp beaks and sharp claws, these guys are not easy to mess with. They can tear off a piece of flesh alive if caught.
no!
Spending so much money is not an option.
However, if they don't come down, we can't get up either.
This is how to do?
"Mr. Zhang, they seem to be afraid of light!" Suddenly, Lina reminded loudly.
I took a look, and sure enough, the sky was full of strange birds, under the light of the flashlight, they couldn't open their eyes, and were hiding aside in fear, and some even covered their bare little heads with their wings.
I swayed around a few times, and the strange birds immediately dispersed, squawking wildly, and fled to another place.
But the flashlight light couldn't last long after all. As soon as it passed by, they crowded in densely again, like dark clouds in the sky, firmly covering our heads.
Got it!
These guys live deep underground all year round. Not only have they never seen light, they must have never seen fire, right?
When I thought of this, I hung the flashlight on the buckle on my shoulder and took out a few paper cranes from my backpack.
This is a trick that Han Laoliu casually taught me on the way back from Devil's Valley.
I wrote a flame talisman on each paper crane, and then recited a spell to give them spiritual power. The paper cranes were immediately awakened and flew into the air with fluttering wings.
The strange birds stared with their little eyes, thinking that the paper crane was easy to bully, so they immediately swarmed up.
As soon as it touched the paper crane, the flame talisman immediately activated, causing waves of fire to rise.
The strange birds surrounding them were all burned, and these guys were frightened, squealing, and flying in all directions. This time, another large area was immediately ignited.
In an instant, most of the strange birds in the sky were set on fire, with raging fire and screams. The air was filled with the stench of burnt flesh.
From time to time, strange birds with burned wings fell from the sky. I waved my knife to block them and shouted loudly: "Quickly move!"
Lina and Fan Chong hurriedly supported each other and moved forward.
The strange bird was stuck in a ball of fire and had nothing to do with itself, so how could it have any time to attack us? Taking advantage of this gap, the three of us quickly passed through this area and climbed up the rugged valley path.
The top of the canyon became flat, but the path ahead was blocked.
On the mountain facing us, there was a vague hole large enough for a train to pass through, but it was completely sealed by countless pieces of large and small gravel.
I looked up with a flashlight and discovered that there was a trace of sword energy more than ten meters long on the top of the mountain, and half of the mountain had been flattened.
It must have been done by Taoist Master Bai He!
