Chapter 2353 Fighting of Savages!
In addition to the "Flame Flower", Li Yao and Li Jialing also discovered all kinds of weird underground life. The diversity of biodiversity reminded Li Yao of his past exploration experience in the silver lake under the Skeleton Dragon Star.
However, almost all the life forms in the depths of the ground are like colorful variants of life on the ground, rather than being naturally generated. It seems that they have also accepted the genetic modulation and artificial intervention of generations of intelligent life since the Pangu and Nuwa civilizations. , to survive in such a harsh environment.
The habitats of the vast majority of underground life are the refuges that have been continuously collapsed, buried and abandoned for hundreds of thousands of years.
In just half a day, Li Yao and Li Jialing passed by three deserted refuges, or ancient ruins.
The ancient relics sound quite mysterious, containing infinite treasures. The places that attract the powerhouses from all walks of life are like the Kunlun Secret Realm discovered by the Xingyao Federation, and the Nuwa battleship deep in the Yongye Ice Field near the North Pole of the Ancient Sacred Realm. Like the Pangu Underground Palace.
However, such relics that have a special maintenance system, or are frozen in the depths of the North Pole, so they can be intact, are really rare and rare.
Most of the ruins have been eroded from 10,000 to hundreds of thousands of years, and the magic weapons and corpses of slight value have long been annihilated, either in ashes, or mixed with lava, losing any possibility of excavation and restoration.
This is the case with these three ruins near area 10084.
The crystal brain system, which used to have excellent computing power, has long since become a rusty, twisted and deformed shell; the rune arrays used to purify the air and cool the temperature are also covered with moss and vines; most of the passages have been collapsed. The rocks and the gushing magma were clogged, and the traces of the last victim's painful struggle before death could be vaguely seen. These traces have all become fossils and are clearly imprinted on the uneven rock wall.
Regardless of whether the owners of these relics are the Pangu or Nuwa tribes who controlled the Xinghai hundreds of thousands of years ago, or the ignorant Guxiu who inherited a large number of ancient secret treasures tens of thousands of years ago, or the demons of the 30,000-year-old Great Dark Age Nobles, even the first batch of modern cultivators from the Star Sea Empire era... There is no difference, their glory and civilization have dissipated, their corpses have not been restored to their original shape, and the dim light of the "Flame Flower" swept over them. Moss-covered tracks, even the lizards and small snakes that scrambled past dismissed their ashes. There was really nothing in it to suck and devour.
However, finding the ruins meant that the savages were not far away.
Because most of the savages are descendants of the people in these ruins.
Both Li Yao and Li Jialing wrapped strands of divine thoughts with spiritual energy, rippling around like ripples, and sure enough, not long after, they found traces of several wild men in the depths of the darkness.
The two enjoyed a wonderful ambush.
In the beginning, it was a man from the red ring who hunted and killed a man from the black armor.
The Honghuan man is thinner and smaller than ordinary people, about 1.5 meters tall, but there are bundles of slender and powerful muscles all over his body, like cables tightly tied together, containing amazing explosive power.
They are as light as cheetahs in the ground, elegant and extremely ferocious. The upper and lower rows of canine teeth protrude like daggers, just enough to bite a human's head from behind, piercing in along the eye sockets, instantly destroying brain tissue deep underground There are no other large mammals except humans. Such tooth structure can only show that they are used to eating their own kind.
Li Yao paid special attention to the eyes of the man with the red ring, and found that, as Li Jialing described, the pupils were scarlet rings that spread out in circles, shining brightly in the dark. If they were illuminated by the "flame flower", At that time, it is even more shining, full of soul-stirring power.
It seems that in addition to "night vision", there is also some kind of natural mental attack, which is similar to "deterrence" and "shock". Although it is extremely weak, it is more than enough to deal with ordinary prey.
Their ears are also big and flat, with criss-cross folds. It is said that the depths of the folds are filled with extremely sensitive sensory organs, which can sense the surrounding terrain and the breathing and heartbeat of prey through the feedback of sound waves.
With such sharp searching and attacking weapons, the red ring man has become the premier hunter in the dark death zone, the existence at the top of the food chain.
When Li Yao sensed this red-ringed man, he was hanging upside down above a cave, creeping towards another black-armored man who was eating a lizard.
Li Yao originally thought that the black armored man was wide and flat, like a tortoise. When he saw it with his own eyes, he realized that the black armored man was also very thin. More like an armadillo.
Except for a suit of black armor, they did not evolve any more offensive weapons, and naturally they were at a disadvantage in the duel with the red ring men.
Seeing that this single and ignorant black armor man was about to die at the hands of the red ring men, Li Yao was thinking whether he should stop the two wild men from fighting.
Suddenly, just as the red-ringed man threw himself towards the black-armored man, a lump of stalagmite-like thing moved violently, smashing a black shadow towards the red-ringed man, smashing the red-ringed man all at once. fell to the ground.
It was a Nightwing disguised as a rock!
Li Yao was astonished at the subtlety of the Nightwing man's "mimicry". Even though he was seriously injured and only inspired one-tenth of his divine sense to detect, the Nightwing man was able to escape his scan , the racial talents evolved deep underground are quite sharp.
Moreover, this is obviously a pre-set trap, with the Heijia man as the bait and the Nightwing man as the main attacker, let's hunt this careless Red Ring man together. They can set such a careful trap, which shows that the light of wisdom has not been completely wiped out. , it is still in the category of "human beings", not just beasts in human skin.
The black shadow cast by the Night Wing Man seems to be a super-strong alloy component of some kind of magic weapon, with sharp edges and corners, and it is like a mace when swung. The Red Ring Man is a flesh and blood body after all. He didn't practice spiritual power, so he fell to the ground after taking this heavy blow, bleeding profusely.
Seeing the Heijia man and the Night Wing man screaming to bite off the throat of their prey, Li Yao stood up from the depths of the darkness, and slightly increased the agitation of the spiritual energy in his body.
The underground residents were extremely alert to danger. The Heijiaren and the Nightwings didn't even hesitate for half a second before throwing away their prey, retreating into the depths of the darkness, and fleeing.
Li Yao didn't stop them, but stepped forward to check the condition of this red ring man.
His head suffered a heavy blow, and the skull was deeply sunken from the left temple, and he could only breathe in but not out, and it seemed that he could not survive.
Li Yao carefully observed the red ring man's body, and found that although he was not naked, there were beetles gnawing on his chest, uneven tattoos, and a rubber band tied on his right arm, with two sharp bone blades attached to it. Jialing told Li Yao that the Red Ring people had the habit of sharpening their bone blades with the teeth of their dead relatives. They believed that the souls of the dead were attached to the sharp canine teeth like daggers. Such bone blades would bring good luck to the living and protect the living. safety.
It seems that today's close relative of the Red Ring man did not bring him good luck.
However, the intricate tattoos and unique customs also prove that the Red Ring Man is not a beast in human skin, but a member of the human family.
Li Yao can even accept monster races with teeth and claws and strange shapes. Naturally, there is no reason to reject these underground races who still retain most of their human appearance.
The strange eyes of the red ring man gradually lost their dim light, turning into ashes like a rock, his chest stopped heaving completely, his always tense muscles relaxed one by one, but his tendons contracted and stiffened, making him pose A very distorted posture.
Li Yao sighed, crossed the hands of the man with the red ring on his chest, put on an appearance of sleeping peacefully, put him in the corner of the cave, and hurled down extremely fast rocks to bury the corpse. For the time being, this is the only thing he can do. too much.
Li Jialing has been watching silently from the side, hesitated to speak several times, but in the end he still didn't cast out the doubts in his heart.
After burying the Red Ring man, the two moved on.
The caves and cracks ahead are more rugged and secretive. If it weren't for the guidance of maps and coordinates, and the fact that Long Yangjun sprayed huge arrows with special fluorescent agents when he went deep into the ground, Li Yao and Li Jialing couldn't have imagined that they would be here. In such a desolate place deep in the ground, there is still a bright road.
I walked down and down again, and after half a day of climbing, suddenly, a tunnel with a diameter of 30 to 40 meters appeared for no reason. The spiral lines on the wall must be some kind of super giant drill. Developed by the earth magic weapon.
"I'm afraid it wasn't developed by the Pangu or Nuwa tribes hundreds of thousands of years ago!"
Li Yao observed the surrounding environment and said, "Originally, it was supposed to lead to... the ground? But then, with the vicissitudes of life and the drastic geological changes, the first half of the tunnel leading to the ground collapsed and buried, leaving nothing but the back half." , into a form without a head and a tail."
At the end of the tunnel, there is a faint light.
Moreover, the oxygen content and air pressure of the air ahead are different from those here, so that an air flow similar to a draft is born.
The positioning chip showed that Long Yangjun's coordinates were right in front of him, at the end of the giant tunnel.
Li Yao and Li Jialing looked at each other. Since they both came here, there was nothing to hesitate. If Long Yangjun really had ulterior motives, there was no need to save them from Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi. If he really wanted to harm Li Yao, There were plenty of opportunities in the past ten days, so there was no need to lure them here to do it again.
"Go, go and see what kind of tricks this bitch is up to!" Li Yao waved his hand and strode towards the end of the tunnel.
