Chapter 441 The Mysterious Cave
Puzzled, Lei Xiao slowed down his pace in the territory, and opened the chatterbox at the same time.
Sean, the captain of the third-tier pterodactyl knight team, panted nervously, and immediately came to Lei Xiao's ears: "Report to the lord, my subordinates have found some abnormalities here..."
"abnormal?"
A look of curiosity appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he asked, "Xiao En, didn't the ten of you lead the migrating sky pterosaurs to build a nest in the Baibu mountain range near the territory?"
"That's right, my lord, the thing is like this..."
Sean's voice, which hadn't completely calmed down, sounded immediately.
"Because of the huge size of the sky pterosaur, more than sixty of them could not all be squeezed together, so the ten subordinates found a group of caves in an excellent location in the hidden place of a mountain peak, which just met the conditions for nesting. During the five caves, the subordinates and others did not find any abnormalities, and everything went very smoothly."
Sean's tone began to become more urgent: "However, after entering the sixth cave, a sudden change occurred."
"In the depths of the cave, my subordinates accidentally discovered a hidden path. Before the subordinates organized people to step up and examine it carefully, more than 20 third-level roads suddenly rushed out of the hidden passage ahead. The clay figurine warrior launched a fierce attack on his subordinates and others."
"This high-level golem puppet is extremely weird and difficult to deal with. No matter how it is hacked, it will recover quickly and cannot cause any damage at all."
The sound of swallowing and spitting was heard, and Sean continued: "After a fierce battle, the subordinates and others finally got rid of the opponent's entanglement, and finally returned to the outside of the cave. Fortunately, those guys didn't chase them out. ..."
"Is there such a thing?"
In Lei Xiao's eyes, a touch of astonishment and awe-inspiring suddenly emerged.
From Sean's description, we can know.
Those sudden golem puppets are obviously very dangerous, and they should be guarding something.
The location where Xiao En and the others built their nests was not very far from the territory, in the Baibu Mountains near the north of the territory.
Therefore, it is natural not to sit idly by and watch such an unknown dangerous place near the territory.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned and asked: "Xiao En, how are the ten of you doing now?"
"My lord, only the three pterodactyl knights suffered minor injuries, and the others are fine."
Xiao En's voice gradually calmed down, and came to Lei Xiao's ears again: "At present, the subordinates and others are guarding the entrance of this cave, in case the other party appears again."
"Very well done, wait for me there, I'll bring someone over right away."
Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and then greeted Chao Yan, Ye Cang, Nan Xing and Nan Yue with words.
Not long after, with Lei Xiao as the center, the knotweed, Hongye, Baiwei, and several fourth-tier powerhouses who had just arrived gathered in front of the small gate on the west side of the territory.
"Everyone, the situation is like this."
Lei Xiao nodded to the seven subordinates in front of him, and briefly described the affairs of Xiao En and the others.
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao stepped onto the giant white wolf and said solemnly: "Okay, then let's take a good look at what kind of secrets are hidden in that cave."
"Obey! Your lord!"
The two fifth-tier powerhouses and the four fourth-tier powerhouses touched their chests and saluted, and responded respectfully.
Under the guidance of the two pterosaur knights who came to meet them.
It didn't take long for Lei Xiao and his party of eight to enter the depths of the Baibu Mountains in the north of the territory.
During the fast speed, Lei Xiao noticed.
The surrounding topography is extremely complicated, with smog, jagged rocks everywhere, and overlapping mountains, making people dazzled.
Among the lofty mountains, sharp cliffs and uneven valleys emerge endlessly, which is obviously much more complicated than the Songyin Mountains that I have traversed several times before.
"With such rugged terrain, even ordinary third-tier powerhouses may find it difficult to cross in a short period of time, let alone ordinary soldiers."
"In addition to the precipitous environment, there are also a large number of Tier 1, Tier 2, and even Tier 3 monsters inhabiting the forests and caves in the mountains, which form a double barrier with the mountains themselves. These hundred mountains are indeed a perfect natural danger. .”
Lei Xiao stared at the deep valley around him, and nodded thoughtfully.
Of course, for Lei Xiao and his group, walking in it is not a difficult task.
In the marching team of eight people, only Bai Wei and Lei Xiao are still at the peak level of Tier 3.
And Bai Wei, who grew up in the mountains since she was a child, is very familiar with the terrain of mountains. In the form of a giant white wolf, her speed is even comparable to that of Nanxing Nanyue.
As a result, the overall movement efficiency of the team is almost affected.
Wait until the light of the two suns fades and the twilight falls slowly.
The dusty Lei Xiao and his party had already joined Xiao En and other pterosaur knights.
"See Lord Lord!"
Seeing Lei Xiao's tall and straight figure, Xiao En and other knights hurried forward and saluted respectfully.
It can be clearly seen that the pterosaur knights all looked relieved.
The Lord Lord's arrival undoubtedly made them completely relax from the tension they had been hanging around.
"No need to be too polite, everyone has worked hard."
Lei Xiao nodded, his eyes swept over the pterosaur knights.
I saw a few pterosaur knights with some bandages wrapped around their bodies, looking quite embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao immediately ordered to the muscular priest beside him: "Ye Cang, start the treatment first."
"Obey, my lord."
Ye Cang bowed gracefully, with the dark golden life force surging in his hands, he walked towards several wounded pterosaur knights.
During Ye Cang's treatment, Lei Xiao found out by the last rays of the two sunsets.
This is a steep ring-shaped mountain, the location is very hidden, and the steep terrain makes it difficult for a considerable number of land-based monsters to approach.
Just like what Xiao En said in his reading, there are six or seven large and small caves dotted among the surrounding cliffs, which are indeed very suitable as the lair of the Sky Pterosaur.
"My lord, the mysterious cave that hides the third-order clay figurines is here!"
Xiao En's still nervous voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again.
Looking in the direction of Xiao En's finger, Lei Xiao noticed further.
Among the weeds not far ahead, there is a very ordinary-looking cave entrance, almost indistinguishable from other surrounding cave entrances.
"My lord, there is indeed a trace of some kind of golem puppets remaining there."
Hong Ye, who had been keeping a low profile in the line, twitched her jade nose, stepped forward and stroked her chest in salute.
At this moment, Sean was surprised to find out.
Beside him, the leader of the firmament pterosaur who had just been tamed not long ago began to tremble uncontrollably, as if he saw some natural enemy.
"It can actually make the leader of the pterosaur who is not afraid of the sky and the earth tremble. It seems that the lord has subdued another powerful general..."
Thinking of this in his heart, Sean swallowed involuntarily.
Although I couldn't see the depth of this sassy strong woman, as a senior pterosaur knight, I had never seen a pterosaur mount so frightened.
"My lord, the treatment has been completed. Fortunately, the injuries of the knights are not serious."
Not long after, Ye Cang bowed slightly and returned to Lei Xiao.
"very good."
Lei Xiao nodded, and then ordered: "The other nine pterodactyl knights are guarding outside the cave, and Sean is leading the way. Let me take a good look and see what's so special here."
"Obey! Your lord!"
All the subordinates bowed in unison and said in unison.
Walking straight into the cave not far away, Lei Xiao who was holding a shiny light spar noticed it.
The interior of this cave is quite spacious and humid.
On the stone walls on both sides, turbid water droplets continued to slide down, and at the same time as making a "tick tick" ethereal sound, they finally scattered on the rocky ground.
Walking along the damp passage, it didn't take long before a vast cave space appeared in front of Lei Xiao.
Gently sniffing the moist air filled with the smell of earth, Lei Xiao looked around.
In this cave space with an area of at least one hundred square meters, the magic moss seen in the underground caves of the Songyin Mountains is covered everywhere.
Wherever the line of sight is, it is full of colorful dots of fluorescent light, which seems to have a sense of fantasy.
"My lord, this subordinate was attacked by those third-order clay figurines here before."
Sean took a step forward, raised his finger to a higher place at the end of the cave, and reported to Lei Xiao.
Judging from his slightly nervous expression, he obviously still has some lingering fears about the sudden attack by his opponent just now.
"Just go and have a look."
Lei Xiao nodded and took his own steps first.
Stepping over a large area of slightly slippery magic moss, Lei Xiao soon came to the end of this cave.
Just like what Sean said in his reading, in the shadows ahead, there is indeed a small passage that only two people can advance side by side.
However, since this unknown passage is not a straight line, it is impossible to know what is at the end.
Just when Lei Xiao was about to lead all his subordinates to find out.
Accompanied by a strong surge of energy, a group of pitch-black figures suddenly filed in from the passage ahead, blocking the entire passage tightly.
Under the reflection of the light spar, Lei Xiao, who narrowed his eyes slightly, noticed it.
These sudden figures are exactly the high-level golem puppets in the form of clay warriors that Xiao En said.
All of these clay figurine warriors were dripping thick mud continuously, as if they had just crawled out of a swamp.
That menacing ferocious face, coupled with a pair of scarlet eyes, looks quite visually impactful.
Judging from the breath, the strength of these high-level golem puppets is obviously at the level of the third-order senior powerhouse.
"Lord, be careful, it's these guys! They are not afraid of physical attacks, and they are very difficult to deal with..."
Beside Lei Xiao, Xiao En's nervous reminder sounded again.
"My lord, leave everything to your subordinates."
Seeing that this huge crowd of clay figurine warriors was about to rush out of the passage, Hong Ye couldn't help but frowned slightly.
"Go."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and nodded calmly.
"Obey, my lord."
Hong Ye took a step forward and blocked the exit of the passage.
After taking a deep breath, a fiery red flame burst out from Hong Ye's vermilion lips.
In an instant, a continuously churning red pillar of fire was formed, and with lightning speed, it swept towards the passage full of clay figurine warriors ahead.
With the sudden rise in the surrounding temperature, the entire cave was as bright as day, making it almost difficult to open one's eyes.
The roiling heat waves generated by the flames continued to spread to the surroundings, causing the magic moss in the cave to quickly lose their luster.
As the scorching flames rose, the whole scene was astonishing, as if a flame storm had blown up.
Of course, under Hong Ye's precise control, Lei Xiao and his party were not harmed in any way.
When the flames gradually extinguished and everything calmed down again, Lei Xiao looked into the passageway again.
I saw that the passage was empty, and those clay figurine warriors who were not afraid of physical attacks and bared their teeth and claws had long since disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.
Only the scorched air around and the black smoke that kept coming out were left, and the sound of sizzling was still making.
"This... this is?!"
This was like a scene of trial by flames, making Sean's mouth open, and he couldn't believe his eyes.
The group of powerful clay figurine warriors who chased him all the way to the outside of the cave just now were wiped out so easily?
Lord lord... What kind of monster did this subdue?
And the rest of the subordinates also showed expressions of amazement.
Instantly killing 20 or 30 senior golem puppets at the third-tier senior powerhouse level, Hong Ye's spray is really amazing.
"What a powerful flame, is this the dragon's breath?"
Among them, especially Zhao Yan, who is a great magician of flames, stars appeared in a pair of crystal clear eyes, and she wished to exchange her experience of "playing with fire" with Hong Ye immediately.
"Good guy, it seems that the bed-wetting fighters under my command have risen to two people. I wonder if the dragons would wet the bed when they were young?"
Seeing this, Lei Xiao pouted helplessly, muttering to himself.
"Having said that, I didn't expect to be able to use Dragon's Breath so easily in the human form of Hongye."
"It can be imagined that in close combat, a mouthful of dragon flames directly hitting the enemy's face must feel very sour, right?"
Thinking about this leisurely, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and said to the dragon woman who was still smoking a little smoke, "Hong Ye, you did a good job."
After speaking, Lei Xiao nodded to the subordinates beside him and said, "Okay, let's move on."
Moving forward along the completely dry charred passage, after making two consecutive turns, the group soon came to the other end of the passage.
So far, the hidden space at the end of this mysterious cave has been completely displayed in Lei Xiao's field of vision.
