Chapter 48: Near in front of us, far in the horizon
"But, can you tell me the reason for doing this?" Shadow looked at me with a complicated face.
Hum? Today's shadow seems to be different from before. I feel a little suspicious, but on the surface, I still shook my hair with a very badass, and smiled and said firmly: "No!"
With a bang, Shadow almost fainted after hearing my words, but soon returned to normal, "Then let's start!" As she said that, she pinched a sword technique and made an attacking posture.
"Wait for a moment!" I raised one hand to stop the shadow. "I remember you told me that if one day I want to kill you, you will let me have a move first and then fight back, right?"
Shadow was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly in his heart. Unexpectedly, a joke-like statement would come true. Destiny was indeed unpredictable. "I promised you that I will fulfill my promise." As he said that, Shadow changed to a defensive posture.
"This is unfair!" A person from Xueyan Pavilion spoke out indignantly.
Shadow reached out and made a stop gesture, then calmly said to me: "Okay, I'm ready, you attack!"
I smiled and pulled the ghost killing away, "Shadow, you don't have to be beaten foolishly, you can avoid it!" Of course I don't want him to avoid it. It's just a tactic of hard to get. If he really avoids it, I'll be stunned.
As I expected, Shadow shook his head: "Since I'm asking you, of course I'm going to take this arrow. I don't think I'll be killed instantly by this arrow!" Shadow's last sentence was said to the people of the Blood Yan Pavilion, which meant to make them feel relieved. After hearing this sentence, the members of the Blood Yan Pavilion who had great confidence in Shadow's strength also laughed. Of course, an archer could not kill a swordsman in seconds, let alone Shadow is not an ordinary swordsman, so it's no big deal to give an arrow.
Seeing the expressions of the people in the Blood Yan Pavilion, I laughed in my heart. A group of ignorant guys, let’s see how I kill Shadow in seconds! But my face was a serious expression, and I seriously pulled the bow and looked at Shadow, "Be prepared mentally, I’m going to attack!"
The thieves next to him sweated a lot. On the surface, this scene looked like a fair duel between two gentlemen, but only they knew that this was actually a shameless and dirty show match in which Spider, a despicable guy, plotted against the Shadow.
There was a whoosh sound of breaking through the air. Because we were not far away, in just one ten thousandth of a second, before everyone could react, my Jiushu burst out less than one meter in front of the shadow, and half of the 99 steel needles that had quenched the Fire Poison King's body instantly sank into the shadow's body.
I have calculated that the total attack power of 99 steel needles is 12,870. Even if I only shoot half of it, it still has an attack power of about 6,000. Shadow is a Swordsman. With his current level, his blood is definitely less than 4,000. As long as he doesn't dodge, I can kill him in seconds.
As I imagined, the moment the steel needle hit the shadow, a thick red line flashed on the shadow's head, which was a blood reduction symbol! Before everyone could react to what happened, the shadow turned into a white light and flew away...
The people in the Blood Yan Pavilion were all frozen in place as if they were petrochemical. Isn’t it? Or is it a bug?! Each of them thought so. Although the five thieves had known the power of Jiutu for a long time, they were still shocked. This was the real killing skill! Apart from me, the most sane reporter from the Honghuang Daily who was hiding in the dark, took a close-up look at me, holding a camera at me, and then I was tall and straight after winning, with long fluttering hair, handsome masked scarf, and mysterious dark red eyes... I could see it all.
After about seven or eight seconds, the people in the Blood Yan Pavilion finally got rid of their petrification state. After coming to their senses, they all stared at me with angry eyes. Fortunately, those who had tacit understanding all took out their weapons. Sweat, don’t you want to kill me to avenge the Shadow!
Thinking of me pulling out another Nine Slaughter, and instantly summoning the matchmaker, the five thieves also pulled out their weapons when they saw this. The reporter Cola was hiding in the dark. Today's news is really shocking! The mysterious archers who can kill the shadows in seconds, the mysterious wind brigade, and... the upcoming bloody battle... This issue of the newspaper is about to sell! My bonus is about to double! The excited reporter pulled the camera away and began to shoot the scene of our two armies confrontation.
However, the reporter's expected bloody battle did not appear. Everyone in the Blood Yan Pavilion was very afraid of the inconspicuous arrow in my hand. While they were hesitating, a person who seemed to have a good position looked at his message, then waved his hand to ask them to take back his weapons, looked at me in a complicated way, and turned around and took the lead. It seemed that the shadow had been resurrected. Send them a message so that they should not make things difficult for me, which was also within my expectations.
After everyone retreated, I thought for a while and said to the sneak peasant Zhu: "Go and check the details of the man who returns home at night. The man who dares to touch me is impatient to live. Let me see how I deal with him!" A group of thieves sweated heavily when they heard this, thinking that it wasn't you who killed the shadow? It's really shameless!
The next day, when the Honghuang Daily was launched, we couldn't wait to buy a copy. The newspaper wrote in big bold words "The Shadow of the Leader of the Blood Yan Pavilion was instantly killed!!" The two bright red exclamations were extremely eye-catching.
"Yesterday, our reporter 008 went to the mountains and forests outside the eastern suburbs of Eclipse Moon City to investigate the movements of monsters. He accidentally discovered a secret duel. The two sides of the competition were Shadow, the leader of the famous Blood Yan Pavilion Gang, and the other was the leader of the legendary mysterious mercenary group, Rainbow Brigade. So the reporter 008 hid aside and secretly took a picture of the duel scene between the two... Unexpectedly, Shadow was killed directly by this arrow... We have posted the entire video to the official website of the prehistoric world..."
After watching it, we looked at each other: "This time we are once again famous!"
"Wrong, it's the spider that has become famous again."
"What's the point? I'll have more opportunities to become famous in the future!" I shook my hair and said disdainfully.
"Spider, the dragon ghost in the world has sent us another message. We still have to hire us to defend the city, and the price has increased a little." The secretly rebellion took a look at the information and said obscenely.
"I won't go!" I said firmly. I really don't want to see that perverted guy, "Why do you five go!"
The five people shook their heads together, "We won't go if you don't go!"
"Huh?" Zuoliang Huanzhu made a surprised voice as he looked at the message, which made us look at him curiously.
"What's wrong with the fat man?"
Ji Liang Huanzhu looked at me strangely: "It was a message sent by Shadow, saying that he wanted to ask us to defend the city." Ji Liang Huanzhu finished speaking, the five thieves looked at me with that look, making me look so furry.
"What do you think? Ask him how much money he pays, let's go!" I pretended to be nothing, but in fact, I was surprised in my heart than them. I didn't expect Shadow to do this. What did he want to do? I was very curious.
"100,000 taels." Stolen the scepter answered me.
"It's not bad. We don't have much business now, so go, what are you watching?" I looked around the five of them.
"Damn! Just tell me if you want to go, so hypocritical!" Several thieves despise me together.
So we agreed to the Shadow, but there was still some time before their battle to defend the city, and we were still like the same as before. Five thieves went to level up, and I was wandering around, but my mission had not been completed yet.
Today I decided not to go to the city, but to the outskirts of the city. There were too many NPCs in the city and I couldn’t finish asking. Why not come outside to try my luck! I walked along the foot of the mountain to the east and met several NPCs, but they were all uninformed guys.
As I gradually went deeper, another NPC appeared in front of me, a woodcutter who was chopping wood. He habitually ran up to say hello: "Hello!"
The woodcutter looked up and looked at me strangely, and said with a little reproach: "What are you, a foreigner, doing here? Don't go forward anymore, leave here quickly!"
Tsk~ I despised him in my heart. What a scoop, isn’t it just an NPC? I didn’t let me go, I insisted on going over. Thinking of it, I pretended to walk back, and when I got to the place where I couldn’t see the NPC, I sneaked into the valley.
There are no monsters on the road. It is far from several leveling points here, and usually no one comes. Maybe there are any tricks inside. With this idea, I touched the valley. Once I arrived at the valley, the system prompted "You found the forbidden area of the White Wolf Clan."
The forbidden area of the White Wolf Clan? I looked around and there were no plants here. A large area of bare ochre rocks were scattered in messy areas in this valley, without any life. The valley walls of the valley were very steep and there was absolutely nothing to climb up. This is really a natural dangerous place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it weren’t too barren, it would definitely be a good place to build a city.
However, since this place is the forbidden area of the White Wolf tribe, why is there not half of the guards? Could it be... there is any monster here! Thinking of this, I nervously took out the ghost killing and patrolled vigilantly, but I found nothing. I walked around the valley again, but still didn't find it. I frowned and looked at the steep and smooth mountain walls around. Is there any mechanism that secretly telling me? If there is a mechanism... I had to ask the thieves to come and take a look.
After they arrived, they had a group of stealing the sky and changing the beams and pillars, a group of stealing the dragon and phoenix and a little thief, starting a carpet-style search from both sides. My life and Wuhuan and I were leisurely working as supervisors beside us.
"Spider, I've discovered it!" News came from the side of the stealing dragon and turning phoenix. I was so bored that I was about to fall asleep. After hearing the news, I was very excited and jumped up and ran towards the direction of the stealing dragon and turning phoenix.
When they saw them, they were lying on the mountain wall like geckos, touching them back and forth, as if they were molesting a beautiful woman, sweating to death.
"What are you doing? What are you finding?" I said as they looked at their strange behavior.
"There is empty behind this mountain wall, and it is a mechanism, but we can't find the switch to turn on the mechanism." The dragon and the phoenix said helplessly.
"Empty?" I knocked on the mountain wall. Sure enough, the dull sound was different from the sound of the stone wall next to me, and it was really empty.
"Let's look together." The gecko and the gecko also joined the ranks of the gecko.
I summoned the matchmaker, "Matchmaker, can you open this stone wall?" A big drop of sweat dripped from the matchmaker's head, took a few steps back, and kept shaking his head. Alas! The matchmaker can't open it either!
I looked at the stone wall and said, "Open the sesame door!" I didn't respond.
"Mung beans open the door!" There was no response.
"The spider opens the door!" still didn't respond.
"Mu Ye Sichen opens the door!" Still no response.
...
I didn't react for a long time, so I continued to think, boredly knocking on the stone wall the tone of the prehistoric landing music "Dang~Dangdang~Dangdang..."
With a "wow", when the music ended, the stone gate suddenly opened, my hand was hanging in the air, and I was stunned. No, this is OK? Did they have found the switch and just turned on? Thinking of me, I turned around and looked at the four big geckos, but they all looked at me in surprise, and kept the movements in their hands.
After a while, the sky changed the sun was heard: "Damn! This is OK? Spider, I suspect that the great god Pangu is your relative." The other four nodded in agreement and looked at me with a look of perverted eyes.
"You are jealous of me!" I murmured in a low voice and took the lead in walking into the cave.
The cave is not big, everything is obvious at a glance. The entire cave is an oval shape. A pool about 30 meters wide in the middle divides the cave into two parts. There is a small stone bridge that only one person can pass through. The side where we stand is empty and there is nothing but a few supporting pillars. On the wall of the cave opposite us, there is a relief of the great god Pangu. In front of the relief there is a stone table similar to the altar, and there is an ancient wooden box on the stone table. We looked at the box and looked at each other. The sky was about to move forward, but I stopped him.
I put away the ghost killing and looked around vigilantly. There was no monster breath, but I didn't think it was safe here. I kept focusing heavily and slowly walked towards the stone platform... less than 100 meters away, I walked for 10 minutes and walked to the front of the stone platform without any danger. I wiped my sweat and looked back at the thieves. They gave me a worried look. I knew what they meant was to tell me not to touch the box, maybe it was a trap, but I still plucked up the courage to touch the box. Anyway, I was not afraid of death.
Dong! Before I could figure out what was going on, I felt dark and the stars in front of me flew around. When I regained my consciousness, I found that I was lying next to the entrance of the cave where we came in, and several thieves were looking at me sympathetically.
After stuffing a few blood-enhancing pills, I rubbed my ravaged head and asked several thieves: "What happened just now? What attacked me."
Several thieves turned their eyes to the pool: "A tentacle was stretched out from the pool and pulled you a home run."
Tentacles? Is it an octopus? The system just prompted me that I was attacked by Pangu Guardians, and I didn't see what it looked like. I rubbed my head and walked to the pool to look inside. The water surface was calm and there was nothing? Alas, really, I looked at the box, but it was close to me and couldn't get it. I was so depressed! I don't know what was in that box?
At this time, the system prompted the sound suddenly sounded: "The secret treasure mission in the prehistoric continent has been completed. Please go to the meteor to hand in the mission."
Chapter completed!
