Chapter 2760: The Man in the Pipeline
Seeing that the monarch had taken away Tognia, Karen and Oleg no longer stepped forward. Seeing that the cocoon Qili had put down was awakening, they protected everyone and Qi. Li joins.
"Qili, why did you put down our experimental product?" Karen was a little dissatisfied.
Qili said: "At times like this, life is more important, right? The Lord has taken away Tognia, what should we do?"
Yuko was about to take action against others, but I saw the cocoon of flesh that fell on the ground suddenly began to stir. The outer flesh bag was like a compatriot's clothing, and something was struggling to come out at this moment. Yuko was more interested in this and ignored the others, focusing on the objects on the ground. The Xianyi Dragon was distracted by this and was freed from the entanglement by Lamasu II, flying away into the distance.
The living creatures on the ground quickly broke free from the shackles of the flesh bag. A deformed creature bathed in the dripping fluid of the fountain of youth and released extremely toxic poison.
......
In the pipe, the five Zana people, who had not been resting for long, heard the noise coming from the entrance. Cologne and Heiting cheered up in a daze, and they secretly prayed for pursuit. The soldiers did not pursue them here, but with the sound of footsteps, their hopes were dashed.
"Look, there are new scratches on the wall of the pipe, and there are footprints here. Those guys must be hiding inside, and they must be seriously injured." The pursuer looked at the traces on the ground in the pipe and said Lower your speaking voice. The companions next to him gestured and kept silent, and several people took steps into the air and chased into the pipe.
They walked a few hundred meters and suddenly saw some lights in front of them. They guessed that the other party was recuperating. Everyone looked happy and stepped forward, weapons ready to take action at any time. But just as they rushed forward, they immediately felt that something was wrong. Those lights did not look like the illumination lights lit by the intruders, but more like fire. Moreover, they were already at such a close distance that it was impossible for the other party not to notice. And there must be no reaction.
Just when their hearts tightened and the secret passage was in bad condition, the magic traps arranged in the pipe exploded one after another, the air flow penetrated the impact, and the strong fire flow rushed through.
Zana was holding Heiting and Colon in his arms when he heard an explosion from behind.
"If they find us, they will still come after us. Your magic traps can't stop them!" Cologne was very nervous. His current powerlessness made him lose the arrogance and courage he used to have.
Zana reluctantly said: "Calm down, don't infect me with your emotions, I'm still thinking of a way!" He thought for a while and said: "If there is a fork in this pipeline, we will still There is hope of escape."
"What if there is no chance?" Colon couldn't help but ask.
"Shut up, you guy!" Zana majored in the spiritual system after all, and used magic to stabilize his mind: "In any situation, there are things that cannot be calculated. If you reach a dead end, you can only fight to the death. But surrender is not a bad idea. A good idea, hehe."
Heiting said unhappily: "At this time, you are still in the mood to joke. What bothers Cologne and me is that you are being treated like an incompetent fool. If we still have any fighting ability, I don’t want to live without dignity like this!”
“They want to arrest us and put us in a cage to be visited. That would be a great shame.” Cologne. He said angrily: "Zana, if that time comes, give me and Heiting a good time, and I will thank you."
"Then you should be more cruel to that Yuko guy now." Zana said.
“Hmph, nonsense, now I want to tear him into pieces and chew him in my mouth~!!!”
The footsteps from behind came again, accompanied by the gasping sound of the monster.
Cologne shouted: "The pursuers are getting closer and closer to us, silly fat man, isn't there a fork in the road ahead?"
Poirot held Bonn and ran into the air, surrounded by nothing. The changing landscape swept backwards, like entering a large tunnel. Because the pipe was tortuous, they ran too fast and bumped into the pipe wall several times, but there was still no so-called fork in the road.
Heiting couldn't help but cursed: "What kind of machine domination pipeline is this? How can there be such a pipeline? I seriously doubt whether the people here understand construction machinery? Isn't it said that this arsenal is a huge machine? "The emergence of this kind of pipeline is a complete failure." He and Cologne were so anxious that they began to curse the design of the arsenal. Now Bonn and the two brothers have no fighting ability, Poirot and Zana are seriously injured, and Zana has also lost his strongest fighting method, his puppet. Three or five people with sixth-level strength, or a group of high-level strength guys, can tie them up.
At this moment, a luminous wind group suddenly flew from behind. Zana looked back and glanced back. The magic in his hand offset the wind group, and he met the pursuers in the light.
"Huh, we've caught up." The pursuers laughed wildly and commanded the monster to rush forward.
Zana was annoyed: "You clowns are also trying to catch me." Although he did not have the main battle puppets, he still had many fog mines and other objects. He threw them all behind, and then used the wall of fire to Magic blocked the pipeline layer by layer, and finally blocked the pursuers behind. But this is not the best policy, it only temporarily delays the opponent's pursuit.
Sure enough, the magician who caught up from behind the pipe immediately used wind and water magic to cleanse the wall of thunder, mist and fire in the pipe. In an instant, the passage was reopened, and everyone was chasing after him. They fled from Zana and others, judging that the opponent did not have much fighting power. As long as they caught up, they could capture them, which would be a great achievement. Therefore, the pursuers who had been holding back for a long time started chasing like crazy, for fear that the other party would run away. But after chasing for a while, they realized something was wrong. Not only were the traces of escape on the ground and wall gone, but they could no longer hear the other party's escape noise.
The person chasing at the front stopped and couldn't help but wonder: "What's going on? Why did the person disappear out of thin air?"
"Did teleportation speed up the escape?" someone said.
The magician said: "Impossible. There are bends in this pipe. Even we are not familiar with it. Although it is relatively straight in many cases, I didn't control the teleportation well and broke into the solid part of the pipe wall. Area, that is courting death." However, even though he said this, he could not guarantee that the escaping intruders would not take risks when they were cornered. When he turned around and saw that there were many people following him, he said: "Divide into a group. The people continued to chase forward, and the remaining people looked back carefully, maybe hiding somewhere, paying special attention to the top of the head, which is an easily overlooked place. "
A group of pursuers. While searching forward, the remaining people searched every corner of this section of the road, focusing on the 300-meter section near where the wear marks and footprints disappeared. They found nothing except a smell. Zana and the other intruders seemed to have really disappeared out of thin air.
Zana lay on the ground with his ear against the wall of the pipe. When he heard the movement in the pipe gradually disappearing, he took a long breath. The position of the five of them at this moment was actually outside the thick pipe. To be precise, they were lying on top of the pipe. It turns out that there is a section of this pipe that is not absolutely sealed. The section of pipe wall above the pipe is overlapped up and down. Since the color and texture of the pipe wall are completely the same, such a crack cannot be seen from the inside. Even if someone sticks to the top of the inner wall and searches through the layers, it will be extremely difficult to find. Because the walls of the tube are thick and heavy, they fit together perfectly. Unless you know the exact location and hit it with great force, you can find it. Otherwise, you can't find it just by groping.
“Are you gone?” Poirot asked softly.
Zana lit a finger of fire, nodded, and turned his eyes to the person who saved them - a big turtle shell.
This man was hiding in a large turtle shell, with only his hands and feet exposed. His head was covered with a conch shell, and a pair of cautious eyes emerged from the gap between the conch shell and the tortoise shell.
But this man is so stinky that he will vomit if he comes even close. This man's hands and feet were rotten, and his rotten muscles and skin were covered with various parasites. Cologne and Heiting felt their scalps go numb when they thought about being dragged up by such a man. If there was a second time, they might Would rather choose to die.
"Who are you?" Zana asked while keeping his distance.
In fact, it is not only Zana and the others who are keeping a distance, but the turtle shell man is also keeping a distance, hiding out of the light. This man is holding a fish bone fork in front of him, and it seems that although he is saving Although he saw these people in front of him, he still maintained panic and vigilance: "I... who am I? You... tell me first... who are you?"
Zana thought that this man had already saved people like him, so he shouldn't hide it anymore, so he told him bluntly: "We sneaked in to cause damage, and you don't know the details."
Man in the Shell After hearing this, my head, which was shrunk in the shell, was scratched. He stretched out his lower limbs and his eyes shone with light, but then he disappeared again and retracted to his original appearance. He asked with a little excitement: "Are you... sent by the Desman Empire?" After saying this, he seemed to Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, he immediately closed his mouth again.
Zana heard the message from his words: "Are you from Disman? You are not a spy of Disman, are you!"
The Man in the Shell Sees He was very nervous when his identity was exposed. The fishbone fork in his hand was shaking. He suddenly turned around. He ran away, but after running very far, he realized that the other party was definitely not the one who wanted to catch him, and then he came back and said: "I...I, I...I have been in the darkness for too long, and my brain is not working well." "Aren't you... from Disman?" he stammered, looking forward to it.
Zana shook his head: "Sorry, no."
The expectant gaze of the man in the shell turned to disappointment, but then he regained a trace of hope and caution: "You... you must be... no... not from the factory, not... from the country of the river."
Zana said truthfully: "I am from the Soton River Country, but I am not from the arsenal, and I do not work for the Soton River Country. As far as the current situation is concerned, we have nothing to do with the arsenal and the country. The country of Soton River is the enemy."
The man in the shell smiled happily: "That's good, that's good."
Zana asked: "Who are you? Tell me, why are you here?”
The man in the shell heard another movement under the pipe, pointed, and then pointed to the distance in the darkness, indicating that they should go elsewhere to chat.
Zana nodded, and after the people in the pipe left again, they followed the people in the shell into the darkness.
