Chapter 1608 Return
In the stone niche on the stone wall of the passage, there is a wheel-like object embedded in it.
In fact, this is a winch with a noose of unknown material on it.
Seeing this, Frederick let out a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, this one was not exposed."
Maryland nodded, "This stone wall is covered with precious Illusion God Sand..."
If the enemy can even detect this, then the right way for them to choose to run away directly.
He turned the winch, and the smooth stone wall in front slowly rose. Inside was a deeper cave that seemed endless.
There are three sides of this stone wall, and the third side is not at the top of the passage, but on the side.
After the two entered the passage for the third time, a cold breath came from inside, "Why are you here again?"
"I have met you, sir," Maryland said respectfully, "Now we are in some trouble, please give us some advice..."
After the adult listened to his story, he hummed softly, "This is your business, what does it have to do with me?"
Frederick replied respectfully, "We are worried that the other party may be coming for you, Your Excellency."
"Hmph," the cold breath snorted, "Come then, I want to see what kind of characters appear."
Frederick coughed lightly, "Sir, the main reason is that two supremes are missing."
"We want to know if anyone can break the restrictions imposed by your Majesty?"
"That's impossible," the cold breath replied coldly, "You two have no idea what the secret of this restriction is."
Maryland hesitated after hearing this, and then spoke, "But sir... the other party is really strong and good at mental attacks."
The cold breath was silent, and it took a long time before he said, "It's not convenient for me to take action, you know."
Maryland's beard twitched and his heart skipped a beat, "Sir, they can use magic weapons without any hindrance."
"This is impossible," the cold breath replied without hesitation.
He sneered disdainfully, "Haha, even if alternative equipment can be developed, it will not be without obstacles."
Frederick couldn't help it anymore, "Sir, what should we do before you are willing to take action?"
"I'm old and want to live for two more years," the cold voice replied calmly, "It's okay... just go ahead."
Maryland and Frederick looked at each other and remained silent for a long time.
In the end, Maryland sighed, raised his hand and said, "Sir, we have to leave first."
Then the two left silently without speaking.
It wasn't until Maryland sealed the hole again that Frederick sneered, "Is this your achievement?"
Maryland looked at him indifferently, "How about...you be responsible for this?"
There was a hint of ferocity on Frederick's thin face, "Is it too much?"
He had wanted to stick to this place before. Although it was probably desolate, it was a place that researchers dreamed of.
In particular, that adult is extremely capable and has an extraordinary amount of knowledge. Everyone is eager to gain his favor.
It's a pity that he couldn't beat Maryland and finally had to give up here.
As for coming once or twice a year, that's his duty. He has to come, and Maryland can't stop him.
It's good now. When something happens, Maryland thinks of giving up. Does this mean he's being treated as a fool?
"So don't say those sarcastic words," Maryland replied calmly, "At this time, we should first consider communicating with the outside world."
"Hmph," Frederick snorted coldly, "If I were you, I would take the initiative to resign now, so as not to injure my companions."
"Implicating you? It's out of the question," Maryland said expressionlessly. "If we have to go head-to-head, we have no chance of winning."
"As long as the adults are willing to take action, the digital phantom... is nothing more than a clown."
"It's a pity that we can't leak the news that the master is hiding here."
Frederick spoke with a dark face, "Digital Phantom has set its sights on this place, and it will be a matter of time before it is leaked."
In fact, he still underestimated this team. At this moment, a ruler was looming in the sky at an altitude of 700 to 800 kilometers.
Speaking of which, the sunset appears only because the thumb peak activates the interference system.
This system is so powerful, the energy fluctuations are so powerful that even Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin, who are thousands of miles away, can feel it.
When they discover that the fluctuations are coming from the Thumb Peak, they will immediately send Sunset to investigate, and they will follow.
There is no need to emphasize Xizhao's stealth travel ability, but the alliance's high-tech equipment is indeed not bad.
But because it had been tricked by the Divine Wen Society and this organization gave it a bad feeling, it was still quite cautious.
When it arrived, Maryland and Frederick had already walked out of the cave.
Xizhao is also good at sensing aura. When he discovered that there were two Supreme Beings below, he immediately became more careful.
If there is only one Supreme Being, it won't notice it, but if there are two... then you have to be careful.
But then, it made a new discovery, "There... seems to be something wrong there?"
In any case, it will not take the initiative to get close to investigate. Things like fighting should be the responsibility of others.
"Two supremes?" Qu Jianlei didn't care. If he let go and fight, he would be confident of winning one against two.
But now he is more curious - what will be halfway up the mountain?
Are those unsolved mysteries hidden there?
Unfortunately, there are too many people gathered there now, and there may even be targeted traps.
Jing Yuexin already knows him quite well. Seeing his slightly frowned brows, she took out something directly, "Try the invisibility cloak?"
Qu Jianlei gave a thumbs up, "You really have everything."
He had tried the effect of the invisibility cloak a long time ago. It can not only blind the vision and consciousness, but also be immune to many technological detection methods.
So the two of them wrapped themselves in a cloak and walked hand in hand.
Considering that the alliance may have some unknown detection methods, the two did not flash over long distances, but just relied on their body skills to travel quickly.
When they arrived at the place, it was already the next morning.
Yi He was the first to notice something was wrong, "There is still residual breath fluctuation there."
When they approached the stone wall, Xizhao suddenly issued a warning, "Be careful, I feel a dangerous breath!"
Qu Jianlei slowed down his pace, "I also think there is something wrong... Senior Yi He?"
Yi He was a little unconvinced, "I don't think it's that dangerous, are you mistaken?"
His spiritual perception is the undisputed first in the team, stronger than Qu Jianlei and Jia Shuiqing.
Xizhao's perception is not bad, but it is still incomparable to him.
But this time, the ruler rarely took it seriously, "What do you know? The perception of the world elves is stronger than danger!"
"Okay," Yi He didn't bother with it, "It's okay to be careful, it's not a bad thing to be cautious."
The two slowly came to the rock under the cover of the cloak.
"No!" Qu Jianlei and Yi He reacted at the same time.
Jing Yuexin's reaction was a bit slower, "Why do I feel... there is a very fragmented mental power?"
"It's a bit like a spiritual alarm," Yi He was a little confused, "Can this kind of application be developed in the awakener system?"
"No, it's more like a trap," Qu Jianlei shook his head, "It feels like a trigger device, wow... there are such people in the alliance?"
"Yes, yes," Xizhao quickly agreed, "I also feel like I've encountered a trap, no wonder I'm always uneasy."
The next moment, Yi He sighed again, "There is actually a phantom sand... What good things are hidden in it?"
"I suggest you retreat and think about it in the long run!" It's rare that Xizhao, who has always been arrogant, actually showed timidity.
"At the very least, transfer a few more good players, such as Jia Shuiqing, Qing Hu or Paranoia."
The three people it mentioned are all Yuanying who have experienced the tribulation of thunder.
Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin retreated quietly without saying a word.
This is also the consensus reached by the team: different opinions can be discussed slowly, but the warnings of companions must not be ignored!
Wherever the invisible cloak passed, not only did the landscape remain unchanged, but there was not even a trace left on the snow.
After retreating to a mountain valley more than 300 kilometers away, Jing Yuexin asked, "Boss, do you want to call for help?"
She knew very well that the boss always acted cautiously, and would never hesitate to call for help when he felt the situation was difficult.
But why is calling for help... called "calling for help"?
If I call for help at this time, do I have no face? Qu Jianlei frowned. When he left, he rejected many people.
"I don't care. If you think you should call someone, then go ahead. I'll guard the teleportation array."
However, Yi He immediately expressed his opinion, "Why call someone? Can't you just do a divination?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at Jing Yuexin, "It's rare for us to come out to relax, you see..."
Jing Yuexin frowned, "Anyway, do what you can. I don't want anything to happen to you."
"It's okay," Qu Jianlei said seriously, "But if you want to do divination, you have to retreat a little."
They retreated a thousand kilometers away, and he made a divination. The result was - half bad and half good!
But the bad was medium bad, and the good was medium good. Qu Jianlei thought he could take a gamble.
He discussed it with Jing Yuexin, and the spokesperson said very straightforwardly, "It's a medium-to-low bet, it's worth a gamble."
"Then it's settled," Qu Jianlei nodded.
After the two agreed, they didn't rush to take action, but left the Sky Mountain Range first.
The other side's two supremes had just arrived, so it would be safer to avoid the sharp edge a little.
Three days later, a Supreme went to the military area—the one with the big beard.
Maryland went to the military to emphasize the relationship of mutual dependence, hoping that a regiment of the military would obey Tianwen's command.
But it was obvious that if the military was so easy to talk to, he wouldn't have to go there.
That night, Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin came to Thumb Peak for the third time.
Then they were surprised to find that the skinny Supreme had arrived at the rock before them.
