Chapter 1,368 Keep Moving Forward
It's just that others are not as lucky as him. With the book of ancient contracts, even the Netherworld Mantis King becomes his.
Then there must be no such loopholes in this life. Then Ye Chen ordered Xiao Hei to carry out the policy of elite soldiers, cultivate more giant Nether Mantises that are 100 feet tall, and also place ten steps, one post, five steps, and one sentry in the passage. , we must guard this place tightly to prevent anyone from stealing eggs again.
Xiao Hei also believed it and glanced at Ye Chen with a rather resentful look. This incident almost left a psychological shadow on him. He was sure that he would never let something like this happen again!
Ye Chen asked Xiao Hei again: "How big is the Misty Swamp? Are you the only one in the Netherworld Mantis clan? Have you seen any other creatures?"
Xiao Hei immediately replied: "It's not the entire Cloud Swamp. It's actually divided into three areas, the peripheral area, the middle area and the core area. The Nether Mantis clan is only in the outer area, and the middle area is occupied by some damn Nether Knights. , and the Netherworld Mantis and the Netherworld Knight are mortal enemies, but they usually don’t interfere with each other. As for what is in the core area, no one knows.”
Ye Chen immediately took a deep breath. Unexpectedly, he and An Xiaoxi had been crawling around in the misty swamp for so long, and they were still spinning around. There was actually a more terrifying ghost knight inside. , apart from that, I don’t know what else is there in the core area.
Now Ye Chen no longer has any hope for the survival of An Xiaoxi's father. Based on his understanding of the treasure-hunting psychic bird clan, his father couldn't even get through the outer area before being torn apart by the Netherworld Praying Mantis, let alone What about going to the core area?
Then Ye Chen released An Xiaoxi from the little world. When An Xiaoxi saw the huge little black, he was so frightened that his face changed color and he screamed.
He hid behind Ye Chen nervously, but after he called for a long time, he saw Ye Chen looking at him quietly, and Xiao Hei also looked at An Xiaoxi curiously.
An Xiaoxi suddenly felt confused. He stammered and asked in disbelief: "What's going on with this super-large Netherworld Mantis, Master? Is it their king? Why does he look a little well-behaved? Why does he look so cute?" Not attacking us?”
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Guess what."
An Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and then he asked incredulously: "Master, have you already subdued him? How is this possible?"
Ye Chen laughed and said, "It's not impossible. Xiao Hei, come and say hello to your partner."
Xiao Hei immediately lowered his huge head and gently rubbed it against the pale An Xiaoxi. Then he lay down next to Ye Chen. His huge body was like a black hill. Ye Chen Right on the hill.
An Xiaoxi was even more surprised. He didn't expect his master to have such ability. He even subdued the king of Netherworld Mantis. This was really unbelievable.
Then An Xiaoxi's eyes lit up and she said with some surprise:
"Master, now that you have captured the Nether Mantis King, the Nether Mantis outside will not attack us. Can we directly enter the core area of the Misty Swamp?"
Ye Chen looked at An Xiaoxi with some sympathy, sighed and said:
"An Xiaoxi, I have communicated with Xiao Hei just now. In fact, we have been operating on the periphery of the Misty Swamp for more than a month and have not yet entered the interior of the Misty Swamp. The Misty Swamp is divided into three areas. zone, middle zone and core zone.
The Nether Mantis occupies the core area of the peripheral area, and there is also the even more terrifying Nether Knight. As for the core area, there are no terrifying creatures yet. Do you think your father can enter the core area independently? "
After An Xiaoxi heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and she sat down on the ground and burst into tears. She didn't understand what Ye Chen meant. He had already told her quite implicitly that it was impossible for his father to pass through the outer area of the misty swamp. and middle area.
Ye Chen shook his head. Although this incident was very cruel, Xiaoxi always had to learn to accept the reality on his own.
After crying for a while, An Xiaoxi suddenly got up and gave Ye Chen a few heavy drinks. She raised her head and said with determination:
"Master, thank you for taking care of me all the way, but I still want to take a look at the core area. Even if there is only one chance in 10,000, I want to see with my own eyes to confirm whether my father is trapped there. Master, next I will walk the road myself, and if I am lucky enough to survive and come back alive, I will continue to serve the master."
After saying that, An Xiaoxi stood up and continued walking out without looking back.
Ye Chen suddenly shouted coldly: "Stop, I am your master now, you can't go anywhere without my consent?"
An Xiaoxi's steps immediately stopped. She turned around slowly and looked at Ye Chen desperately. It was indeed like this. They had signed a master-servant contract. Life and death depended on Ye Chen's thoughts. If Ye Chen didn't agree, An Xiaoxi wouldn't be able to leave him at all.
Ye Chen is by no means hard-hearted. He has seen An Xiaoxi's performance over the past month. It can be said that he works hard, never complains or feels tired, and doubles the tasks assigned to him by Ye Chen every day. Completed, this made Ye Chen a little impressed. After all, when he first met An Xiaoxi, he was still a domineering and somewhat spoiled little girl. Such a transformation was already quite difficult.
Seeing An Xiaoxi in such pain, Ye Chen couldn't bear it, and finally sighed and said: "That's it, you stubborn girl, for the sake of your filial piety, your master, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you. Go have a try.”
After An Xiaoxi heard this, a burst of surprise burst out in his eyes. He rushed forward, grabbed Ye Chen's arm, and asked with tears in his eyes: "Master, is what you said true? Really? Thank you so much."
Then An Xiaoxi threw herself into Ye Chen's arms like a puppy, rubbing her little head against his chest.
Ye Chen pushed him away and said angrily: "My clothes are wet from your tears. As agreed in advance, although I promise to help you go to the core area, there is a condition, that is, everything must be done." You must obey my command. Without my order, you are strictly forbidden to act without permission, and you must not violate it. When I order you to retreat, you must execute it unconditionally, do you understand?"
An Xiaoxi took a deep breath and said decisively: "Master, don't worry, I understand in my heart that although I guess that my father may be gone, I will always be unwilling if I don't give it a try. Let's try Give it a try, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll give up.”
