Chapter 910 Ambush and Chance Encounter
The night is dark, and the terrain of the hills to the west of Corland is undulating, with mountain ridges and low canyons intertwined. The mountains and canyons are filled with patches of woods and shrubs, mixed with Along with some shallow ditches, rivers and streams, extending from these hills is a meadow and a huge swamp...
In a patch of grass, a viper pierced its fangs into the body of a mouse in the dark night. Just as the viper began to devour today's delicious food, several fireflies flew from the direction of the swamp and slowly crossed the grass. , came to this hilly area.
In this dark wilderness, there are many fireflies and other insects that can be seen everywhere, so the few fireflies flying from the swamp area are flying slowly and leisurely, gathering and dispersing, wandering around without attracting any attention.
After those few fireflies, in the direction of the grassland close to the swamp, a meter-long chameleon crawled out of the water, waded across the grass, twisted its head and looked around, and also crawled towards the hills.
The size of this lizard made the viper, which was enjoying a delicious meal, feel threatened. The viper, which had swallowed the mouse, quickly twisted its bulging body and burrowed into the grass next to it. Gone in the blink of an eye.
The lizard crawled across the grass, entered the hills, and climbed into a shallow ditch in a valley in the hilly area. It followed a stream in the shallow ditch and began to swim deeper into the hills, twisting its neck as it swam. Looking around, in the darkness, in the wild hills, there was no one except for the occasional call of the withered owl.
The lizard wandered around the shallow ditch and hills for more than an hour, and finally stopped under a bush.
After more than half an hour, a cloud covered the moonlight in the sky, and another one-meter-long chameleon crawled out of the swamp, following the path of the previous lizard and crossing the grass. , climbed into the shallow ditch of the valley, entered the stream, dived underwater, and then swam towards the valley.
Everything seemed silent.
And just after the big lizard at the back sneaked for almost a few hundred meters in the creek in the valley, suddenly, several dazzling lightnings appeared out of thin air and struck directly into the calm stream. All of a sudden, the lightning flashed wildly, the water splashed, and the vegetation around the stream was instantly scorched under the powerful lightning.
The worst thing was the big lizard in the stream. When the electric light hit the stream, the big lizard was in the water and could not be avoided. In just an instant, the lizard was surrounded by a ball of electric light. , the lizard's mouth suddenly let out a human-like scream, and its body was instantly blackened. The lizard's shape shattered and turned into a human appearance. Like a fish that was electrocuted from the bottom of the water, it suddenly popped out of the water and jumped to He was in the air, but his body was still in a state of stiffness and paralysis under the electric light. A water-shaped shield had been passively activated, protecting the man's figure.
At the moment when the water-shaped shield appeared outside the man's body, on the ground, a dark creature with a turtle back and a snake neck the size of a millstone emerged from the nearby bushes. It raised its head and stared at the man from behind indifferently. The human figure jumped out of the stream, and a black icy breath had already spat out on the water shield around the man's body.
The terrifying low temperature instantly enveloped the surrounding hundreds of square meters of ground. The flowing stream was completely frozen at this moment. The grass and trees that were burning under the electric light just now formed a layer of white frost. The person and the person who were hit by Xuanwu's breath were completely frozen. The water shield outside his body instantly turned into a huge ice ball with a hint of cold air, falling from the air to the ground.
Before the ice ball fell to the ground, a blood-red fire suddenly lit up inside the ice ball. Countless cracks appeared on the ice ball. The huge ice ball shattered all of a sudden. The skin and most of the muscles of the person inside the ice ball were already broken. It was completely shattered, revealing the bones and blood inside and two eyes flashing red, like a skinned and blood-stained skeleton, with the whole body burning.
Before the blood-skull-like human figure could fall, dozens of sharp ice picks rushed towards the blood-skeleton like dense arrows. A bloody flame shield surged around the blood-skeleton. The child blocked most of the ice picks, but there were still two ice picks that passed through the body of the blood skeleton and brought up large blood flowers.
The blood skeleton groaned and vomited blood, and landed. At the moment the blood skeleton just landed, golden lotus emerged on the dark ground, and a black shadow sprang out like lightning, getting close to the blood skeleton, like The shadow of the blood skeleton was the same. With a flash of sword light in the darkness, the head and body of the blood skeleton were instantly divided into two parts.
A strange scene happened again. The moment the blood skeleton's head was chopped off, the headless body suddenly reached out and grabbed the flying head, as if trying to put it back on its neck.
The black shadow raised his hand again, and with a flash of sword light, the blood skeleton's head and body directly turned into four halves, falling in four directions. The few broken limbs that fell on the ground were still trying to struggle, and the dark magic vines emerged from the ground. Chi Li suddenly drilled out, penetrated deeply into the blooming head and body, and fixed the stump to the ground. The stump finally stopped moving. The remaining life energy on the stump was demonized in the blink of an eye. The vines were drawn out.
With a crash, the space equipment of the blood skeleton exploded. Gold coins, divine crystals, a world bead and some bottles and jars and the like exploded all over the ground.
The moment the blood skeleton's life breath disappeared, many fireflies flying in the surrounding valleys and woods, as well as the lizard, turned into light and disappeared at the same time.
"Moonlight, long time no see..." Xia Ping'an moved his hand, put away the long sword in his hand, looked not far away, and said in a low voice.
A night watchman wearing an angel mask on his face and red gloves on his hands slowly walked out of the darkness not far away. Several spiritual butterflies with faint brilliance flew around that person. The breath is smart and mysterious.
Yes, that person is none other than Colander's Night Watchman Moonlight. Even the night watchman's robe cannot conceal Moonlight's graceful figure.
The Xuanwu that had just ambushed and exhaled moved its limbs like a big turtle. After glancing at Xia Ping'an, it walked towards the moonlight and walked into the black mist behind the moonlight in the blink of an eye.
Unexpectedly, moonlight can also summon Xuanwu, which is somewhat beyond Xia Pingan's expectations.
"Ajiluo..." Moonlight spoke, walking towards Xia Pingan with birdlike steps, "I didn't expect you to still be staring at him, I'm really surprised..."
"I'm equally surprised to see you here!" Xia Pingan said.
"This man's bounty is very attractive. I have been keeping an eye on him for a long time..." Yueguang said, scanning the "trophies" on the ground, and said directly, "I just need this world bead. You can choose three of the five boundary beads from the Investigation Bureau, and each of us will share half of the remaining loot and bounty, do you have any objections?"
Xia Pingan's eyes also glanced at the world bead on the ground. That world bead happened to be the assassin's world bead that he had fused before. It was of no use to him. He nodded generously, "Of course, I have no objection, Madam said. The final word!"
As he spoke, Xia Pingan thought. The magic vine had already divided the divine crystal gold coins among the loot on the ground into two halves. Together with the Assassin's World Pearl, he donated them with vines and handed them directly to Yueguang. Moonlight also Without any politeness, I accepted it directly.
The other portion of the divine crystals and money was brought to Xia Pingan and was collected by Xia Pingan. These things were not free of charge. There were three to four hundred points in those divine crystals.
"What to do with this body and the things on the ground?" Xia Ping'an asked, "Do we need to take them back?"
"No, I have just notified the Investigation Bureau. The people from the Investigation Bureau will be here soon!" Yueguang said calmly, and had already walked to a place only a few meters away from Xia Ping'an. Then Yueguang suddenly stopped, Suddenly he looked at Xia Pingan with doubtful eyes, "Compared with the last mission, you seem to be a little different. The aura on your body has completely changed... It's very powerful. Did anything interesting happen to you?"
Xia Pingan's heart trembled. This woman's perception was too keen. Of course he was different from last time. He was now a fifth-level divine scroller, so he was naturally different.
"Everyone has secrets, right?" Xia Pingan said, the aura on his body gradually became obscured, and he slowly retreated into the darkness behind him, "I hope we have a chance to cooperate again next time..."
After saying this, Xia Pingan's entire figure gradually disappeared, and the magic vine shivered back to the ground, leaving no trace.
The spiritual butterflies flying around Yueguang came to Xia Ping'an's disappeared side and lingered for a while, and then returned to Yueguang's side, conveying some secret messages through strange flight trajectories.
"Interesting, I can even get rid of the tracking of Spirit Butterfly. It doesn't look like a newcomer who has just joined the Night Watch. The aura just now is at least the fifth level. Is it my illusion..." Moonlight whispered to herself. .
