Chapter 155 Be Bold when the Time Comes
Baji Prison, Arena Square.
Xu Yue withdrew his gaze from the information panel and turned to look at Ba She in front of him. Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed.
A subtle alarm sounded in his ears, which was a reminder from the warning equipment he had placed outside.
"It looks like an uninvited guest is here."
After muttering to himself, he glanced at Ba Snake, who was still lying on the ground, and moved his gaze to the pile of gluttons. The latter was now so greedy that he was almost drooling.
Ba Snake's talents overlap greatly with Taotie's, and they both belong to Xu Yue's split soul. They have the basis for fusion with each other. After eating it, Taotie's abilities will be completed and improved to a certain extent.
Therefore, Taotie will instinctively show its salivating desire for a picture of Ba Snake. This is the essence of the soul that longs for completion and completeness. If Xu Yue was not there, it would have pounced on it and devoured it.
"You can start now, Taotie."
Hearing this, Taotie looked at Xu Yue in surprise, while Ba Snake opened his eyes in surprise.
"Wait a minute, shouldn't I be included in the flag?"
Facing Ba Snake's question, Xu Yue just glanced at it indifferently and had no idea of explaining.
It takes 20 points of intelligence attribute of Jiuli Battle Flag to condense one. Now he does not have any extra battle flag to seal Ba Snake.
No matter how obedient, forthright and aware of current affairs Ba She was, he had no intention of leaving the other party behind for future seal drives. He was not prepared to leave any possible hidden dangers in his spiritual space.
After giving orders to Taotie, he left the spiritual space in a flash.
On the spot, after seeing Xu Yue disappear directly, a flash of surprise flashed in Ba She's eyes, and he obviously thought of the need for the Jiuli War Flag to unite.
"It turns out there is no place for him. He is indeed an experiment. His life is really short."
"It's a pity that the time was too short and I couldn't recover much physical strength."
In the snake's eyes were the sharp teeth of the Taotie that gradually enlarged. The Ba Snake used its last strength, opened an exaggerated snake kiss that was one size larger than the Taotie, and pounced away with a roar.
The deep roar of the Ba Snake sounded in the Baji Prison, but it soon stopped abruptly, and was replaced by the terrifying swallowing sound of biting flesh.
…………
Xuanwu Outskirts, Snake Valley.
The boulder sealing the valley exploded with a bang, and among the debris flying, two figures, one tall and one thin, walked through the smoke and dust and stepped into the valley.
At this time, several hours had passed with heavy rain falling. The clouds had already disappeared and the sun was setting.
The original grand scene of red waterfalls and lava flowing into the lake in the valley has disappeared. After several hours of continuous watering by heavy rains, the flowing red magma has turned into a black-red substance similar to obsidian, but its texture is far inferior to obsidian. hard.
This substance is found in almost every corner of the valley, coating it with a black-red coating, making the entire valley look gloomy and terrifying, like a purgatory on earth.
Two figures stopped at the entrance of the valley, scanning the Snake Valley in front of them, which was completely different from what was reported in the information. They were a little dumbfounded.
"Is this all caused by that kid? He couldn't really destroy the entire snake demon settlement by himself, could he?"
A man dressed as a scholar in the figure looked horrified and muttered to himself.
To the right of the scholar, there is a tall and burly man. Looking at the scene in front of him, he also looks gloomy. These two people were the two who were talking about Xu Yue in the compartment on the second floor of the tavern. assassin.
"Brother Shan, are you sure we still want to cause trouble for that kid?"
After seeing the handwriting left by Xu Yue, the scholar spoke hesitantly. The strong man in front also hesitated for a moment, but after remembering the rumors that the target was suspected to be the Indestructible Vajra Perfection, he still gritted his teeth and said.
"It doesn't matter even if this kid really kills all the snake demons in the valley. Judging from the traces left in the snake valley, at least several hours have passed since the battle ended."
"And we have been guarding outside Xingyang City for so long, but we haven't seen this kid return to the city."
"It means that even if he completed the mission, he must have been seriously injured. He may not even have the strength to return to the city. He can only stay in this dangerous wilderness Snake Valley to recuperate."
"The more serious the damage in this valley, the more intense the fighting is, and the boy is seriously exhausted."
With the analysis, the strong man's tone became more and more firm and powerful, and he began to believe the possibility of what he said. He noticed that the scholar behind him looked a little loose, and he continued to strike while the iron was hot:
"That kid is most likely still in Snake Valley, so let's find him first."
"If the other party seems to be safe and sound, we will not take action. We will assume that they are here to assassinate the snake demon."
"But if the other party is seriously injured, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Considering that the other party is obviously less than thirty years old, he can actually achieve the perfection of Vajra Indestructibility. Coupled with this fire-bending ability, don't you want to go one step further? ”
The scholar was silent for a while. After noticing the fierce look in the eyes of the big man in front of him, his hesitant eyes gradually became firmer.
"Okay! But according to Brother Shan's arrangement, I will follow suit."
Speaking of which, he was actually the one who was interested in Xu Yue in the first place, so he deliberately provoked the strong man. However, after seeing Xu Yue's methods, he became a little timid, but the strong man refused to give up.
It can only be said that he underestimated the temptation of the Great Perfection of Indestructible Vajra for the people of Shigeng country. No one knows better than them how difficult it is to achieve this step. This is already the obsession of a strong man.
After hearing the scholar's reply, the fierce light in the strong man's eyes gradually subsided. They were not close friends.
"Don't worry, I won't kill myself if it's impossible."
"But you have to be brave when the time comes. Opportunities are often fleeting. Even if you are really defeated, it will be your turn after I die."
As he spoke, the strong man had already strode into the valley, and the scholar followed him with a wry smile.
When they arrived in the valley, the two simply looked around and walked straight to the cave where Xu Yue was.
The valley that had been destroyed several times was in full view. The only possible places to hide people were a few caves on the rock wall, and the most obvious target was naturally the cave that served as the sleeping palace of the snake demon king.
When they arrived at the cave entrance, the strong man took the lead in clearing the way. He had the strongest defense among the two, so the first task was naturally handed over to him.
It was dusk, and the evening light was dim, especially in the cave. The two walked into the dim cave one after the other, but no one noticed that a tiny electronic eye was flashing a faint red light in the crack of the rock at the top of the cave entrance.
At the same time, deep in the cave.
Xu Yue, who was sitting cross-legged on the high platform, opened his eyes and left the spiritual space.
He turned his head to look at a small screen beside him, which was playing a picture of two figures walking in from the cave entrance one after another. He took off the small white disc behind his ear, and the piercing alarm in his ear stopped.
After putting the disc away, Xu Yue clicked on the screen, and saw the faces of the two people in the picture quickly enlarged, occupying half of the screen on the left and right.
This device was a small warning device he bought in the Mechanical Street. It cost 200 Paradise Coins, and the technical difficulty was not high, but it was surprisingly easy to use. It was just that the signal could not cover a large range, but it was more than enough to monitor a valley.
"Tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and eyes, and a fierce face, this should be the rock ranked 28th that Guyu mentioned."
"Wearing a white robe, dressed like a scholar, and always holding a fan, this should be the Baiyu scholar ranked 36th."
After carefully observing the characteristics of the two people, Xu Yue quickly recognized their identities. Among the assassins stationed in Xingyang City, only more than ten of them are ranked in the top 100. Last night, he had learned about their detailed information from Guyu in detail. After comparison, it was not difficult to identify them.
In Xuanwu Country, assassins are a very prestigious profession. They even have close cooperation with the court and jointly carry out foreign aggression activities. Therefore, few assassins pay attention to hiding their identities, especially the assassins ranked in the top 100. Their corresponding characteristics are basically known to everyone in the organization.
As for the seven shadow assassins at the top, they are famous throughout the continent. Their reputation is forged by the blood and death of countless powerful and high-ranking officials.
After Xu Yue put the screen beside him back into the space, he stood up from the platform and stretched his stiff body. There was a slight purple in his eyes. He had just dealt with the snake demon and these two people came together. Their purpose was self-evident.
It happened that he was recovering well now. He just improved two attributes and needed to stretch his body. These two people came at the right time.
To be honest, he was looking forward to how much gold content the assassin ranked around 30 would have.
After taking the wolf-hair cloak from the corner of the platform and putting it on, Xu Yue simply sat on the platform again and waited.
