Chapter 526: Fog
"Martin, is your wound okay?" Luna asked worriedly, walking towards Martin.
Martin shook his head slightly, "It has been treated, the wound is not infected, don't worry."
"That's good." Luna glanced at his bandaged wound and breathed a sigh of relief.
After Ian and the others were all adjusted, they said, "Let's go." With that, he took the lead in opening the way.
Martin and Rosemary and others followed.
Du Dian glanced at Eugene, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. He was ready to find an opportunity to get rid of this person in the next battle, and by the way, tortured the behind-the-scenes messenger who sent him here.
The fog on the mountain is hazy, the air is humid, and there is a faint smell of rot and fishy smell.
Ian took the lead and walked towards the foggy direction. His magic mark ability can control body temperature and sense the temperature difference in the surrounding air. .
"It's a little weird." After climbing more than 200 meters, Martin suddenly said.
Ian paused and looked back at him, "What?"
Martin looked at the deep grass and leaves beside him, and said in a low voice, "Have you not noticed, the density of the fog is a bit too high, it's still the black snow season, the temperature is so low, and there is no sun today, shouldn't it be? There is such a heavy fog, and there are too many dewdrops on it."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and then they noticed that the deep grass passing around was covered with dew, as if it had been washed by heavy rain, but when they came here yesterday, there was no sign of rain, and the road was also Not moist.
Ian frowned and pondered silently. Years of hunting experience told him that there must be monsters when things went wrong, but the mission target was nearby, so he couldn't back down because of it. All of them have already been killed by them. If they return halfway now, if the listeners perceive the danger and leave this place, it will be even more difficult to find them again. The time spent and the distance to find them will be an adventure.
He thought for a moment, made up his mind, and said in a low voice, "Everyone, be careful, if you encounter an abnormal situation, be ready to evacuate at any time."
Everyone nodded and became more vigilant in their hearts.
Du Dian followed behind the team, and his heart also did not dare to relax. After all, this is a barren area, and pioneers will encounter danger. Although he has wings to save his life, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be attacked by powerful monsters before he reacts. kill.
"I smell it." After walking for another hundred meters, Luna suddenly said, she gently sniffed the tip of her nose, raised her finger to a high slope with dense forests ahead, and said, "The smell of wind listeners is right there. Front."
Ian looked back at her, "Are you sure?"
"Sure!" Luna nodded earnestly, "The odor of the wind listener is recorded in the Monster Atlas, which is very similar to what I smell now. It should be the wind listener right!"
Ian nodded and was a little relieved. He didn't expect to be lucky this time. As soon as he arrived in the barren area, he found the mission target. However, what followed was a dangerous and hard battle. With a dignified expression, he said to everyone: "Get ready for the battle, Ruby, put the food here first, so as not to be inconvenient to move later."
Ruby nodded, put down the huge burden on his back, and stuffed it between the two nearby trees to fix it.
"Go!" Ian set an example and walked ahead.
The crowd quickly followed.
Soon, everyone walked out of the woods and saw that there was a flat land in front of them. In front of the flat land was a huge strange rock, steep and towering, and sunken inward. There was a dark cave at the intersection of the sunken, even Du Di'an People with ordinary sense of smell can also smell the foul stench wafting out of this cave, mixed with the rotten smell of damp soil in the swamp, and another indescribable odor, which is creepy and nauseating.
Seeing this cave, Ian's eyes were certain, and he said in a low voice: "This is it, prepare the torches!"
Ruby immediately took out a few torches from her rucksack, poured kerosene and lit them, and handed them to Ian and Martin, the remaining one, and one to Eugene. As for Du Dian and Rosemary, Lu Na and the three of them have been told in their previous communication ability that they have night vision ability, so they do not need torches.
Ian also has night vision ability. After he picked up the torch, he threw it into the cave.
Whoosh!
The firelight rolled in the air, whirring like a wheel, and fell straight into the cave. The firelight was imprinted on the edge of the cave. Suddenly, I saw an extremely disgusting scene. The material that crawls all over the cave is a bit like dried and hard feces, a bit like a hard shell after molting, more like the rotting flesh and blood of some animals.
A strong stench emanated from the black lacquer substance stuck on the cave's rock wall, and after the firelight flew into the cave, it quickly disappeared.
However, everyone looked at the cave vigilantly as if they were facing a great enemy, pulled up the team posture, and prepared for battle.
Time is passing little by little.
Ten minutes passed, and there was still no movement in the cave.
Ian frowned. Could it be that the depth of the cave was too long, so it didn't alert the listeners inside?
He glanced at the surrounding ground, picked up a stone and approached it a little, and threw it in again. With a bang, the stone hit the rock wall and made a muffled sound.
Ian took two steps back and returned to the line, staring warily at the cave.
After waiting for another four or five minutes, there was still no response in the cave.
Seeing such a strange appearance, Ian couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Martin, Rosemary, Luna and others also looked at each other. If they ventured into the cave, the natural danger would greatly increase. After all, it was the old nest of the hearers, and the latter was naturally more familiar, and the environment inside was narrow. It is not conducive to their team fighting. In the open space outside this cave, all the strength of the team can be exerted.
It's just that, because of such a big movement, the listeners inside still didn't respond?
unless it's not in the lair.
Everyone almost unanimously thought of this possibility, Ian's eyes flashed, and he whispered: "It may not be in the cave, I am going to go in and ambush with me, be careful, lest it secretly hide in the dark of the cave, ready to ambush us. ."
Although the possibility of the latter is small, and the intelligence quotient of the listeners will not be the case, there is always a possibility that it is natural to be on guard.
Everyone nodded and followed him slowly approaching the cave.
As she got closer, Luna covered her nose tightly, her keen sense of smell made her face turn green at this moment, and she felt like she was about to suffocate.
Du Di'an stared around and didn't see a heat reaction inside, but the listener is a cold-blooded monster, so it's natural that his heat vision is difficult to detect.
Suddenly, he saw two silver scales beside a raised stone four or five meters above the entrance of the cave. The scales were stained with viscous filamentous liquid and exuded a stench.
He was stunned for a moment. Hearing the wind didn't have such scales. Could it be that there are other monsters in this cave?
