Chapter 424: Peeling off the cocoon


Chapter 424: Peeling off the cocoon

Although Diack was in a hurry, he was the slowest one to come.

This has something to do with their daily habits. People like Ye Jinghong, Drogo and Silk all maintain their proper status as professional soldiers.

The moment they received the order, they didn’t say ‘What’s the matter? ','Why? ’ and other questions, without even a moment of confusion, they immediately lifted off the quilt, changed their clothes and rushed over.

By the time Diack arrived, everyone else had already arrived.

Diack, who had just arrived at the meeting hall, immediately saw the tribesmen already inside.

In order to avoid too much chaos, Zhou Xu only asked a representative of the Centaur team to come in and talk things over.

When Diack saw the other party, he quickly went up to ask questions.

"Barr, why are you here? Is something going on in the clan?!"

Faced with Diak's question, the centaur called Barr subconsciously looked at A glance at Zhou Xu sitting above.

Originally, as soon as he saw Zhou Xu, he wanted to talk about business as soon as possible, but Zhou Xu told him that there were still people who had not arrived, and it would be easier to wait for everyone to arrive and talk together.

He thought what Zhou Xu said made sense, so he waited there.

Now feeling the other person's gaze, Zhou Xu nodded.

“Everyone is here, let’s talk.”

Hearing this, Barr, who had been holding back until now, nodded and started talking quickly.

"It was the lizard people who suddenly came to us and wanted to talk to us about peace talks..."

While speaking, Barr told them everything that happened there.

After listening, Ye Jinghong frowned obviously. He did not expect that the lizard people would actually propose such a thing as 'peace talks'.

But after thinking about it, it doesn’t seem that surprising.

After all, they already know that in the opposite world, the lizard people are fighting fiercely with the rat people.

Under this premise, if they join forces with the Centaurs again, the lizard people will fall into a dilemma of being attacked from both sides.

Of course, taking action on this option also requires taking huge risks for them.

On the one hand, they will definitely be counterattacked by the lizardmen, and they will also suffer a lot of casualties. On the other hand, after the lizardmen are eliminated, they will most likely have to face the group of ratmen. ! This is also a big trouble that cannot be ignored!

Contemplating this question, Ye Jinghong fell into a brief thought.

During this period, Zhou Xu’s focus did not seem to be on this matter, but on one thing that Bal mentioned when describing the whole process,

"You just said that the lizardman's high priest opened the energy channel and let you come over?"

"Yes."

Baal nodded vigorously.

Although they have been neighbors with the lizard people for many years, because the two sides have not violated the river water for a long time, they really don't know much about some of the lizard people's methods.

After receiving a positive reply from Barr, Zhou Xu nodded slightly.

As early as the early winter of last year, when the lizardmen's large army suddenly disappeared out of thin air, he was wondering if the lizardmen had any means of teleportation.

Now it seems that although it is not very accurate, the method is really about the same.

"What exactly did the lizardman high priest do at that time? Please tell me in detail, don't miss any move."

Leaning on Chitose's body, Zhou Xu's voice was calm. , but with an inexplicable convincing power, Baal below could not help but describe it according to his wishes. Zhou Xu listened carefully throughout the process and extracted useful information.

[This method should not only be used by the high priest. Otherwise, the high priest did not come before. How did the large lizard man army leave? 】

[In other words, there are at least two more lizardmen, including the high priest, who have mastered the same method. 】

【If this speculation is true, then why does the high priest, who has a respected position among the ethnic group, do this in person this time? Logically speaking, wouldn't it be nice to send one of his men there? 】

【Did those subordinates lose this ability? Or does the high priest think they can't do it? 】

【If it is the latter, it means that there is still an influence of ability level. 】

[At the same time, Barr’s words just now seem to mention that after the high priest arrived at the scene, he did not take action directly, but searched for a while. Does this mean that this energy channel cannot be opened anywhere? Does it have location requirements? 】

Peeling away the silk and cocoons, Zhou Xu continued to further analyze and organize the extracted clues in his mind, and various intelligence information was continuously connected together.

[Could this ability of the other party not open an energy channel at all? At least it’s not such a direct method! 】

The flash of this thought suddenly opened up a new way of thinking for Zhou Xu.

【Need to find a place, and it seems to be affected by the level of ability...】

At this moment, Zhou Xu vaguely felt that he was very close to the truth about the other party's ability.

【I understand! It's acceleration! The method used by the other party is most likely not to build an energy channel by its own ability, but to speed up the formation of the energy channel through some means under the premise that the energy channel between the two world fragments has already begun to be constructed! 】

[Under this premise, the consumption between the two is definitely to accelerate the formation of an energy channel that has been constructed for ten days, and to accelerate the formation of an energy channel that has only been constructed for two days. It's different. 】

【This energy channel has only been constructed not long ago and is still far from being formed. Ordinary lizardmen are not that powerful, so the high priest needs to take action! 】

【In this way, everything makes sense! 】

At this moment, a whole line was straightened out at once, giving Zhou Xu a feeling of enlightenment.

At the same time, the pressure in my heart was slightly relieved.

If the lizardmen can open energy channels and attack anytime and anywhere, then they will be under too much pressure.

Now, he can at least use this ability to feel certain patterns and know that the threshold for opening energy channels is much higher than he expected.

Then he no longer needs to worry about the lizardmen on the opposite side attacking him anytime and anywhere as he did before.

For example, right now, the energy channel has just been opened twice in a short period of time. The first time it should have been opened naturally, and the latter time it was accelerated by the intervention of the high priest's ability.

Based on his previous thoughts, in the next half month, they basically don’t need to worry too much about the threat from the lizard people. They can relax their tense nerves a little. .

At the same time, individual work can also be adjusted.

For example, Wang Dong's enchanting work...

After temporarily finishing the work at the paper mill, Wang Dong is now back to Prairie Village to carry out his enchanting work.

Because of the special nature of enchanted weapons, he had to constantly perform enchanting work.

But it’s different now. They can follow the rules and take a long vacation in the middle, and Wang Dong can also use this to do other things.
