Chapter 441 The Mysterious Cave
In confusion, Lei Xiao slowed down his pace in the territory and started talking.
Sean, the captain of the third-order pterosaur knight team, panted nervously and immediately reached Lei Xiao's ears: "Lord Qi, my subordinates have discovered some abnormalities here..."
"Abnormal?"
A hint of curiosity appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he asked: "Sean, weren't the ten of you in the Baibu Mountains near the territory, leading the Sky Pterosaurs who migrated here to build a nest?"
< br>
"Yes, Lord Lord, this is what happened..."
Sean's voice, which was still not completely calmed down, immediately rang out.
"Due to the huge size of the Sky Pterosaurs, more than sixty of them could not be squeezed together. So ten of my subordinates found a group of caves in a perfect location in the hiding 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, it was not until entering the sixth cave that a change suddenly occurred."
"In the depths of the cave, my subordinates accidentally discovered a hidden path. Before my subordinates could organize people to take a closer look, more than twenty three-level people suddenly rushed out of the hidden passage ahead. The clay warrior took the initiative and launched a fierce attack on his subordinates.”
"This high-level golem puppet is extremely weird and difficult to deal with. No matter how you chop it, it will recover quickly and cannot cause any damage at all."
The sound of vomiting was heard, and Sean continued: "After a fierce battle, the subordinates and others got rid of each other's entanglement, and finally returned to the cave again. Fortunately, those guys did not chase them out. …”
"Is there such a thing?"
A hint of surprise and awe suddenly appeared in Lei Xiao's eyes.
It can be known from Sean's description.
Those sudden golem puppets are obviously very dangerous and must be guarding something.
The location where Sean and others built their nest was not very far from the territory. It was in the nearby Baibu Mountains to the north of the territory.
Therefore, naturally we cannot sit back and watch as there is such an unknown and dangerous place near our territory.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned and asked: "Sean, how are the ten of you doing now?"
"Back to the lord, only three pterodactyl knights suffered some minor injuries, the others are not serious."
Sean's gradually calming voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again: "Currently, my subordinates and others are guarding the entrance of this cave to prevent the other party from appearing again."
"Very well done. Just wait for me there. I'll bring someone over right away."
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and then called Chao Yan, Ye Cang, Nan Xing and Nan Yue over with his words.
Not long after, Huzhang, Hongye, Baiwei, and several fourth-level experts who had just arrived, with Lei Xiao as the center, quickly gathered in front of the small gate on the west side of the territory.
"Everyone, this is the situation."
Lei Xiao nodded to the seven subordinates in front of him and briefly described the affairs of Xiao En and others.
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao stepped onto the giant white wolf and said solemnly: "Okay, let's take a closer look at what kind of secrets are hidden in that cave."
"Yes! Lord!"
The two fifth-level powerhouses and the four fourth-level powerhouses touched their chests and saluted, and responded respectfully.
Under the guidance of the two pterodactyl knights who came to meet him.
It didn't take long for Lei Xiao and his group of eight to enter the depths of the Baibu Mountains in the north of the territory.
In the process of flying at lightning speed, Lei Xiao noticed.
The surrounding topography is extremely complex, with smoky smoke, rugged rocks and mountains everywhere, making it dazzling to see.
Among the high mountains, there are endless cliffs and rugged valleys, which are obviously much more complicated than the Songyin Mountains that I have traversed several times before.
"Such a rugged terrain would be difficult for even an average third-level expert to traverse in a short period of time, let alone ordinary soldiers."
"In addition to the precipitous environment, the woods and caves in the mountains also inhabit a large number of first-, second-, and even third-order monsters, which form a double barrier with the mountains themselves. The Baibu Mountains are indeed a perfect natural barrier. .”
Lei Xiao stared at the deep valley around him and nodded thoughtfully.
Of course, for Lei Xiao and his party, walking in it is not difficult.
Among the eight-person marching team, only Bai Wei and Lei Xiao themselves were still at the peak level of the third level.
Bai Wei, who grew up in the mountains, is very familiar with terrain like mountains. In the form of a giant white wolf, her speed is even as fast as Nanxing Nanyue.
As a result, the overall movement efficiency of the team is almost completely affected.
When the light of the two suns gradually dims and dusk falls slowly.
Lei Xiao and his party, who were tired of their travels, had already reunited with Sean and other pterodactyl knights.
"See you Lord!"
Seeing Lei Xiao's tall figure, Sean and the other knights quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
It can be clearly seen that the pterosaur knights all look relieved.
The arrival of the Lord Lord undoubtedly made them completely relax from the tension they had been feeling.
"No need to be polite, thank you for your hard work."
Lei Xiao nodded and glanced at the pterodactyl knights.
I saw several pterodactyl knights with some bandages wrapped around their bodies, looking quite embarrassed.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao immediately ordered the muscle priest beside him: "Ye Cang, start the treatment first."
"As you command, Lord."
Ye Cang bowed gracefully, with the dark golden life force surging in his hands, and walked towards several injured pterodactyl knights.
During Ye Cang's treatment, Lei Xiao discovered it through the last rays of light as the two sunsets set.
This is a steep ring-shaped mountain peak with a very hidden location. The steep terrain makes it difficult for many land-based monsters to approach.
Just as Sean said in his words, there are six or seven large and small caves scattered among the surrounding cliffs, which are indeed very suitable as the lair of the Sky Pterosaur.
"Lord, the mysterious cave hiding the third-order clay figurine is right here!"
Sean's still nervous voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again.
Looking in the direction of Sean's finger, Lei Xiao further noticed.
Among the weeds not far ahead, there is a very ordinary-looking cave entrance, almost the same as other cave entrances around it.
"Lord, there is indeed a trace of some kind of golem and puppet atmosphere left there."
Hong Ye, who had been keeping a low profile in the team, twitched her jade nose, stepped forward, stroked her chest and saluted.
At this time, Sean was surprised to find out.
The strong body of the recently tamed Sky Pterosaur leader next to him actually began to tremble uncontrollably, as if he had seen some natural enemy.
"It can actually make the pterosaur leader, who is not afraid of anything, tremble. It seems that the lord has conquered another powerful general..."
Thinking of this in his mind, Sean swallowed involuntarily.
Although I couldn't see the depth of this sassy and powerful woman, as a senior pterosaur knight, I had never seen a pterosaur mount so frightened.
"Lord, the treatment has been completed. Fortunately, the injuries of several knights are not serious."
Not long after, Ye Cang bowed slightly and returned to Lei Xiao again.
“Very good.”
Lei Xiao nodded, and then ordered: "The other nine pterodactyl knights are on guard outside the cave, and Sean is leading the way. Let me take a good look at what is special about this place."
"Yes! Lord!"
All the subordinates bowed and said in unison.
He walked straight into the cave not far away, and Lei Xiao, who was holding a shining light crystal, noticed.
The interior of this cave is quite spacious and damp.
On the stone walls on both sides, turbid water drops continued to slide down. While making an ethereal sound of "tick-tick-tick", they finally scattered on the rocky ground.
Moving forward along the damp passage, it didn't take long for a vast cave space to appear in front of Lei Xiao.
Sniffing the moist air full of earthy smell, Lei Xiao looked around.
This cave space, which covers an area of at least one hundred square meters, is covered with the magic moss that was previously seen in the underground caves of the Songyin Mountains.
Everywhere you look, there are dots of colorful fluorescence, which looks quite magical.
"Lord, my subordinates were attacked by the group of third-order clay figures here before."
Xiao En stepped forward, pointed to a higher area at the end of the cave, and reported to Lei Xiao.
Judging from his slightly nervous look, he was obviously still a little frightened by the sudden attack by his opponent just now.
"Just go and have a look."
Lei Xiao nodded and took his own steps first.
After stepping through a large area of slightly slippery magic moss, Lei Xiao quickly arrived at the end of the cave.
Just as Sean said in his words, in the shadow ahead, a small passage did appear that could only allow two people to move forward 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 his subordinates in to find out.
Following a strong wave of energy, a group of dark figures suddenly came from the passage ahead, blocking the entire passage tightly.
Under the reflection of the light crystal, Lei Xiao, who narrowed his eyes slightly, noticed.
These sudden figures are the advanced golem puppets in the form of clay warriors that Sean mentioned.
I saw that these clay warriors were dripping with rich mud all over their bodies, as if they had just crawled out of the swamp.
The menacing and ferocious face, coupled with a pair of scarlet eyes, looks quite visually impactful.
Judging from the aura, the strength of these high-level golem puppets is obviously at the level of third-level senior experts.
"Lord, be careful, it is these guys! They are not afraid of physical attacks and are very difficult to deal with..."
Beside Lei Xiao, Sean's nervous reminder sounded again.
"Lord, leave everything to your subordinates."
Seeing this huge mass of densely packed clay warriors about to rush out of the passage, Hong Ye couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Go ahead."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and Feng Qingyun nodded calmly.
"As you command, Lord."
Hongye took a step forward and blocked the exit of the passage.
After taking a deep breath, a blazing red flame suddenly spurted out from Hong Ye's red lips.
In an instant, a churning pillar of red fire was formed, sweeping towards the passage ahead filled with clay warriors at lightning speed.
As the surrounding temperature suddenly increased, the entire cave became as bright as day, making it almost difficult to open one's eyes.
The billowing heat waves generated by the flames continued to spread to the surroundings, causing all the magic moss in the cave to quickly lose their luster.
As the scorching flames rose, the whole scene was astonishing, like a storm of fire.
Of course, under Hong Ye's precise control, Lei Xiao and his party did not suffer any harm.
When the flames gradually died down and everything calmed down again, Lei Xiao looked into the passage again.
I saw that the passage was empty. Those clay warriors who were not afraid of physical attacks and showed their teeth and claws had long disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
All that was left was the burning air around him and the black smoke that was constantly coming out, still making a sizzling sound.
"This...this is?!"
This was like a scene of trial by fire, which made Sean's mouth open and he could hardly believe his eyes.
The group of powerful clay warriors who had been chasing him all the way out of the cave were wiped out so easily?
Lord, what kind of monster did you conquer?
The rest of the subordinates also had expressions of amazement on their faces.
Killing twenty or thirty high-level golem puppets at the level of third-level senior experts at once, Hong Ye's spray was indeed astonishingly powerful.
"What a powerful flame, is this dragon's breath?"
Among them, especially Chao Yan, who is the great flame magician, stars are shining in her big crystal clear eyes, and she can't wait to share her experience of "playing with fire" with Hong Ye.
"Good guy, it seems that the number of bedwetting warriors under my command has been increased to two. I wonder if the dragon clan wet the bed when they were young?"
Seeing this, Lei Xiao curled his lips helplessly and murmured to himself.
"Speaking of which, I didn't expect that Hongye in human form could use Dragon Breath so easily."
"You can imagine that in close combat, if a puff of dragon flame hits the enemy's face directly, it must feel very sour, right?"
Thinking of this for a long time, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and said to the dragon woman in front of him with a hint of smoke coming out of her mouth: "Hongye, you did a good job."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao nodded to the subordinates beside him and said: "Okay, let's move on."
Moving forward along the completely dry passage, after turning two consecutive turns, the group soon arrived at the other end of the passage.
At this point, the hidden space at the end of this mysterious cave was completely displayed in Lei Xiao's field of vision. (End of chapter)
