Chapter 536: Legendary "Shadow Hunter"
"Come up quickly." Ian urged, squatting on the edge of the hole.
Needless to say, Ruby grabbed the rope as he went up, held the torch in the other hand, and rubbed the rope with his feet to climb up. Suddenly, a gust of wind came from nowhere, and the flame on the torch fluttered slightly, as if it was about to go out.
A trace of panic surged in Ruby's heart, and he couldn't help turning his head to look around. In the gloomy darkness around him, it seemed that the thing would burst out suddenly.
Thinking of the terrifying scene of Luna's death, his throat rolled slightly, and he didn't dare to wait any longer, grabbing the rope with one hand and crawling quickly.
Halfway through the climb, there was a sudden 'whoosh' sound.
Ruby narrowed his pupils and looked in horror, only to see an arrow shoot straight from the top of the hole, wipe it away from the side of the torch, the air flow driven by it made the flame erratic, and with a clang sound, the arrow seemed to hit the metal, sending out a sharp sound. ring.
"It's behind you!!" Ian hurriedly yelled, "Come up!"
Ruby's face turned pale, and he didn't care to look back stupidly. He didn't even want the torch in his hand, and quickly grabbed the rope with both hands and quickly climbed up. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the top of the hole until Ian caught his palm and hung Only then did his heart relax a little, and suddenly, he felt something seemed to be attached to the soles of his feet, and his body suddenly sank.
"No" Ruby was terrified, and hurriedly raised the other pedal.
Whoosh!
Another arrow suddenly passed by.
With a bang, Ruby felt a light on his feet, and his body immediately flew up, and was dragged to the top of the hole by Ian. He was a little shocked, and cold sweat broke out on his dark face. He sat by the hole and turned his head towards the dark hole. Looking from the bottom, it was pitch black inside, and the falling torch was like a weak flame, which gradually went out, and before it went out, there seemed to be a shadow passing by the flame.
Ruby swallowed a mouthful of saliva, only to feel that he passed by the god of death. He turned his head and glanced to the side, but saw Du Dian slowly hanging the bow behind his back. Obviously, the previous two arrows were from Du Dian. hand.
He didn't expect Du Dian, who had a gap a moment ago, to help him. He felt hot and said gratefully: "Thanks to you just now, thank you, thank you!"
"It's nothing." Du Dian glanced around and said: "It's not safe here, this thing is likely to crawl out to chase, we'd better leave as soon as possible."
Seeing that Ruby was fine, Ian breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "That's right, let's smear them with walking corpse powder,
Be careful, don't disturb the big guy outside. "
Martin glanced at Du Dian, the hostility in his eyes subsided a bit, he took out the walking corpse powder in the backpack to cover up the smell, and after the others were all disguised, he walked in front first.
Returning along the passageway when they came, everyone's footsteps were silent, stepping lightly on the side of the bones on the ground, without making the slightest sound.
As the distance from the outside of the cave gets closer and closer, everyone is getting more and more nervous. Even Du Dian can't help but hold his breath. He has already prepared the second step. Once the monster is alarmed, he will immediately rush to the outside of the cave. After leaving the cave, he can use his wings to fly away. Although doing so will expose his abilities to the eyes of Ian and others, whether they can survive is still a problem, and this is a critical moment of life and death.
In the dark and damp cave, in addition to the smell of rot and blood, there is also a strange smell, a bit like the smell of corpses soaked in rotten water, which is somewhat similar to the smell in the nest under the previous cave, but there are some differences .
Several people sniffed lightly, and they all smelled the strange smell, and their expressions were a little dignified, knowing that the big guy was not far away.
Du Di'an's muscles tensed up, ready to rush out at any moment.
Ian gave Martin a wink that the thing was probably just around the corner ahead. Martin also noticed that the smell here was already so strong that he felt pungent, and he could feel that the thing was very close, which made him a little nervous. He clenched the weapon in his hand, and stepped forward lightly. , without making a sound.
He mustered up his courage, peeking out the corner of his eye a little bit.
Du Dian, Ian, and Ruby suddenly felt that Martin's body stiffened slightly, and their hearts jumped, ready to respond at any time.
After a while, Martin slowly retracted his head, made a silent gesture to everyone, then lowered his body and walked forward slowly.
Du Dian's eyes flashed, he tightened his breath, and followed lightly. When he saw the things behind the corner, he immediately knew the reason why Martin's body was slightly stiff. He saw a huge terrifying shadow crawling on the ground in a section of exit passage behind the corner, like a lizard and a poisonous scorpion, with several The forked scorpion tail, covered with silver scales, is huge, but the body is slender, just enough to be accommodated in this cave. Both sides of the body are full of strange limbs, like spider legs and centipede feet. Long and short.
The moment Du Dian saw this thing, he felt a sense of horror, but what really shocked him was that he recognized the appearance of this monster, which was recorded in the monster atlas, and it was one of the eight legendary monsters. Shadow!
This is a super monster as famous as the Ripper! !
Different from the ultimate attack type Splitter, the Shadow Hunter is good at lurking and sneak attacking, and belongs to the top lurking monster. To some extent, it is more fearsome than the Splitter, even if it is much more powerful than the Shadow Hunter. Monsters may also be attacked and killed by it, and even some top human beings cannot escape its claws.
Ian and Ruby were horrified, and they also recognized the identity of this monster. They never thought that in this orange wasteland, they would encounter a rare legendary monster in a hundred years!
A trace of greed flashed in Ian's eyes, but he was soon overwhelmed by fear. He held his breath tightly and his muscles tensed. In front of the shadow hunters who are good at lurking, the lurking of the few of them is simply at the level of newborn children. worth mentioning.
He suddenly regretted it. He knew that this big guy was the legendary Shadow Hunter. He would rather starve to death in the lair than come out. It's just that now that I'm halfway on the road, I can only bite the bullet and continue walking. He could only pray that the Shadow Hunter slept deeply enough not to be woken up by them.
"This looks like a mature shadow hunter, with a hunting level of sixty-four to sixty-seven." Du Dian glanced at the shape of the shadow hunter. The records of legendary monsters in the monster atlas are relatively brief, only the mature stage And the morphological description of the complete body stage, he suddenly noticed that the silver scales on the shadow hunter's body were similar in shape to the silver scales he saw when he entered the cave earlier.
In addition, the extremely ferocious triangular head on the upper body of this shadow hunter is also somewhat familiar, which is very similar to the horror monster hatched in the lair, except that the triangular arc on its head is slightly concave inward, making the triangle on the head point to The outer bulge extends a little like a spike, making it sharper and more ferocious.
Du Dian suddenly understood, and couldn't help but look a little ugly. Obviously, the entire cave is its territory, and most of the wind listeners and bloodsenters are the food that it captured! And the eggs in the nest are the shadow hunter cubs it gave birth to. It's just that the shape of the shadow hunter they met earlier was different from it, so they didn't think about it for a while.
After all, monsters will transform at each stage, and some monsters can even be turned upside down, with no resemblance to their previous appearance.
Du Dian had a horrible feeling of returning to the lair when he was captured by the Ripper. His sight slowly shifted to the cave in front. Not far behind the Shadow Hunter is the exit of the cave. Just rush out, with the help of wings If it is Yi, it is entirely possible for him to escape!
"It's almost there!" He moved forward cautiously.
Click!
Suddenly, a soft sound came from behind.
Du Dian's pupils shrank suddenly. Although he didn't look back, his eyes instantly saw the source of the sound, which came from Ruby's feet. (.)
