Chapter 16 The Valley
“Yes, the space-time vortex here is very strong, it’s like a tangled mess, making it almost impossible to pinpoint the space. It's not that we can't directly return, but the failure rate of using props is terrifyingly high!"
This sentence was originally said by Zi, but in the orc camp five or six kilometers away, someone said the same thing, and the voice was exactly the same as Zi's.
This person's name is Bo Xiwen. Before entering the Nightmare World, he was a famous lip-reading expert. There were four or five people sitting around him, all with very solemn expressions.
Bo Xiwen's voice echoed softly, with an indescribable strangeness.
These people were sitting around a censer, which contained something black like half a cigarette. The smoke that came out was wisps of red. A fierce-looking three-headed hellhound was lying next to the censer. This fellow was very fat, almost the size of a cow, and looked like it was resting its three heads on its claws, sleeping.
The red smoke was inhaled into the three-headed hellhound's large, moist black nostrils, and it slept even more soundly.
With the three-headed hellhound's rhythmic breathing, saliva flowed from the corners of its mouth, flowing along the plastic sheeting that had been placed there into a basin.
At this time, the basin was already half-full of saliva. The accumulated saliva had the characteristics of mercury and oil, and the surface of the saliva was like a mirror, clearly reflecting a large pattern, which was exactly the situation around Fang Senyan and the others.
"What the Eye Demon sees is completely incomprehensible to humans, only the three-headed dog's saliva can receive the signals returned by the Eye Demon and clearly reflect them." This is the original text on page seventeen, paragraph eight of Black Magic Alchemy. To deepen understanding, the relationship between television signals and television sets was used as an analogy to explain the relationship between the two.
Suddenly, a strong wave appeared in the mirrored scene, and then Zi raised her right hand towards this side without looking back. Zi's right hand was slender and long. Seeing her fingers, one couldn't help but think of the artistic elegance of dancing and jumping on piano keys, but at this time, this hand was wrapped in a black silk glove with gold patterns on a black background, appearing gorgeous and noble.
Bo Xiwen suddenly exclaimed:
"Not good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene in the basin fluctuated and became disordered, and then a shrill scream came, followed by pitch blackness. A bearded man with a poisonous snake tattoo on his arm immediately cursed in pain:
"That bitch! My Eye Demon! ... You can't just sit by and watch, my Eye Demon is worth at least 100,000 points, I finally earned enough contribution points to exchange for it!"
"Shut up, Luo Laos, take this silver plot ring! It's worth at least 50,000 points, you can find Blood Butterfly for the rest of the price, she will give you a fair price!" said a guy who was also carrying a shield. This guy's shield was a wooden shield, but the surface of the shield was inlaid with three shrunken heads, one head was human, one head was a giant ape, and one head was a shark. It looked like he was also an MT.
As soon as this MT spoke, Luo Laos immediately shut his mouth and muttered aggrievedly:
"Okay, since Laxili spoke, then this matter will end here."
Bo Xiwen couldn't help but say:
"Luo Laos, the cost of your Eye Demon will not be higher than 20,000 points, greed is the original sin - Lilith, have you found the reason why the Eye Demon was discovered?"
Lilith was a tall witch with a fiery red phoenix feather in her hair. She nodded and said:
"That woman should have entered the ranks of the Forgers. Bo Xiwen, when your lip-reading repeats her words, the Force existing in this woman's body will automatically warn. She has a very sharp sense and has probably touched the mysteries of time and space. It's not surprising that she discovered the Eye Demon when she was on guard."
Luo Laos, who had gained a bargain, suddenly said:
"However, I think the most powerful guy in this team is that MT called Reef. He took the combined attack of nine people without fear, and immediately counterattacked. The enemy who was caught and killed in seconds should be the core of the team, or at least a very prestigious person! Next, he also continuously blocked several fatal attacks on his teammates. It can be said that he was the MVP of this battle."
Laxili, who was stroking the three-headed dog to wake it up, suddenly raised his head and said disdainfully:
"Humph, it's because those ambushers were too stupid. They probably haven't seen a real MT before. That Reef probably has a survival talent similar to mine. If the instantaneous damage value obtained within a few seconds exceeds a certain limit, then the overflow damage will be ignored. As for those behaviors of protecting teammates, isn't that what an MT should do?"
"Moreover, he also has a professional auxiliary-type deputy to assist him. If I had a similar deputy MT, then I could do it a hundred times better than him! But that Ronnie is really a crazy demon blade. He always draws blood when he strikes. He can be regarded as a top figure in this battle. I don't know how he was subdued by Reef."
Bo Xiwen took the opportunity to say:
"Although Reef has that sailor to be his deputy, don't you have Heibei as a helper, Laxili? As the only beastmaster MT in this space, you are the most powerful MT in this battlefield."
A hint of complacency appeared between Laxili's eyebrows, and he said lightly:
"I can't be regarded as the most powerful, but being in the top three shouldn't be a problem."
Laxili is a dual-talent contractor. His beastmaster talent allows him to directly have an animal companion and share life with the animal companion. His MT talent is an S-class talent, escape. Once the cumulative instantaneous burst damage value received within two seconds reaches or exceeds one-fifth of his health value, then not only will the overflow damage be invalid, but also all damage he receives in the next ten seconds will be halved. The cooldown time for escape is thirty seconds.
Such a powerful guy would of course not be willing to be under anyone casually. Although the Blue Light team also valued him and tried to win him over, Laxili was playing tricks on the surface and secretly formed a maritime alliance, vaguely intending to compete with the Blue Light team.
The battle that Fang Senyan and the others had just fought was undoubtedly fierce, but it came and went quickly. The attack launched in a breath, but ended in a breath! Only the large pit left in place, the ground that seemed to have been plowed, and the **** and faint smoky smell in the air told the truth of the previous battle.
Everyone was familiar with the post-war healing, stopping bleeding, sprinkling medicinal powder, bandaging, and then taking medicines that continuously restored health points (which would be interrupted after being attacked), and then counting the spoils and dividing the spoils, in short, everything was in order. On the other hand, the group of half-orc workers were greatly surprised when they heard that they had to continue walking forward.
These guys obviously didn't have any guts, otherwise they wouldn't have been sent to dig wood and collect stones. After witnessing the previous battle, they were naturally scared out of their wits, and they felt very fortunate to be able to save their lives.
At this time, when they heard Fang Senyan's order to continue moving forward, they were immediately terrified and refused to move forward. However, they forgot one thing, that is, they were just half-orc workers, the lowest-ranking half-orc workers, and they didn't have the right to say no. Ronnie's whips immediately made them scurry away with their heads in their hands, and the few cans of meat thrown by Reef increased their work efficiency by more than 50%.
The Rosa Nagi Valley was originally beautiful, with the ancient trees with brownish-red leaves like burning flames, plus the gurgling streams and clean pebbles, and the eucalyptus fragrance floating in the air, making people feel that it would be a waste not to have a picnic or camp here.
Unfortunately, the hard work of the half-orc workers here destroyed this beautiful scenery. Bald spots like leprosy could be seen everywhere in the valley, and the method of collecting stones now is also very backward. Often, the workers would burn the stones until they were scalding hot with fire, and then pour water on them to make the stones naturally crack. Therefore, plumes of black smoke could be seen rising everywhere.
Just entering the valley area, Fang Senyan and the others saw four or five orc workers running out from a distance, screaming. Chasing after them were several blue giant wolves, running and jumping, very agile, and one could feel that they still had spare strength when they were chasing. As soon as he saw these giant wolves, Sanzai immediately said:
"These are summons! This summoner is very strong!"
While Sanzai was speaking, a blue giant wolf had already jumped lightly and easily pounced on a half-orc worker. Its sharp white teeth easily bit open the worker's throat, first sucking its blood, and then eating its limbs. It seemed that it was not interested in the half-orc's dirty internal organs and head.
At this time, Fang Senyan ordered:
"Save people!"
These half-orc workers were very valuable assets. If Fang Senyan and the others used the team to receive tasks, they would only be allocated four half-orc workers and ten half-orc slaves. For example, slaves are the most unskilled workers on the construction site, such as carrying bricks, while half-orc workers are slightly more skilled, such as laying bricks and mixing mortar. There is no doubt that if they could get three extra half-orc workers, then this contribution would definitely be increased a little.
What? Do the remaining three half-orc workers have any intention of helping? They don't have the right to consider such things. Since Fang Senyan saved them, even their lives belong to Fang Senyan. Do they have the right to say no to a few hours of work?
Another blue giant wolf pounced out. Its movements were smooth, and the long hair and muscles all over its body were smoothly spread out in the wind. Even without looking with its eyes, it believed that the prey under its paws was doomed.
However, even though it was empty in front of it, the blue giant wolf seemed to have crashed into a hard wall head-on, and that wall was rushing over at high speed. The nasal bone of this blue giant wolf was completely shattered, and it suddenly let out a shrill scream, but the scream was immediately blocked by the boiling and shooting blood - a dark red dagger swept across its throat!!
Ever since Ronnie learned that Reef also had the ability of the Hand of God, he rushed even more recklessly. He originally liked to wander between life and death, bringing the feeling and experience of death to the enemy. This experience was as addictive as taking drugs. At this time, after he slashed across the throat of the blue giant wolf with a knife, he turned his hand and cut off the paw of a giant wolf that was pouncing. Although these blue giant wolves roared again and again, they were played with ease by Ronnie's super-high speed.
When Zi completely killed the blue giant wolf with a severed throat with a Force needle, the remaining giant wolves decisively chose to flee in all directions without hesitation. They chased and killed very decisively, but once they found that the situation was not right, they also escaped very resolutely. However, Fang Senyan's group was not easy to deal with either. How could they let a group of beasts run away like this? After a series of pursuits, they killed two more blue wolves.
There is no doubt that those half-orc workers and slaves under his command were all trembling and wanting to run back to the camp immediately, but under coercion, they could only continue to move forward (looking back) in the Rosa Nagi Valley, which has excellent scenery but is full of scars. It is not easy to find a good mining location. Fortunately, Fang Senyan has always been a stable person, and he did not intend to mine overnight, so this mining is the last one for today. In order to get enough weight, they had to go deep into the valley.
Walking forward for about 400 meters, after turning around a forest, they saw a messy battlefield. Large areas of trees had collapsed, and even the mountain rocks showed signs of being blackened by smoke. Blood was dripping, and the leaves were speckled, as if the autumn days of frost had arrived in advance.
Ronnie is an expert in this area. He walked around the battlefield at a very fast speed, and incidentally dropped a few mandrake seeds. These things that have been熏蒸d with vinegar and pepper will let out a very shrill scream once they are stepped on, so in a hasty and simple situation, they are the best sentries.
After Ronnie issued the all-clear signal, Zi snorted coldly:
"These guys run really fast."
Fang Senyan glanced at her, then walked over, took her hand, and smiled:
"Why have you been a little impetuous lately?"
Zi rolled her eyes at him. Wasn't her impetuosity because Fang Senyan was a little promiscuous? But on the one hand, Zi didn't have any evidence, and on the other hand, she knew that it was really impossible to tie down such an excellent man as Fang Senyan like a domestic dog, so she could only pinch her nose and accept it. At this time, Fang Senyan was rarely gentle and considerate, and she just snorted coldly, but let him hold her hand, feeling a complex mixture of shyness and sweetness in her heart.
Sanzai said:
"If the blue giant wolf can be cultivated one step further, it can become a wind-type or earth-type beast, releasing wind blades or stone thorns. The power can be said to be multiplied. Their owner must be heartbroken that we killed three of them, but they retreated very decisively, which shows that the leader has a very high reputation, and everyone obeys his orders without exception."
Probably because Fang Senyan and the others came very quickly, so they got a ready-made bargain - the attackers only killed people, and before they could destroy the wood and stone materials collected by the previous team, they benefited Fang Senyan and the others for nothing. However, the wood and stone materials transported by this team were far from satisfying Fang Senyan's appetite, so he ordered the orc slaves to push the carts, and the group continued to move towards the depths of the valley. In short, it would be fine to let Ramtas come out to help if it was really impossible.
Next, they walked out for about a kilometer. Here, the mountain began to extend towards both sides, showing a figure-eight shape, so the valley suddenly widened, like a喇叭口. The boulders washed down by the flash floods were piled up near the出口, which is a natural quarry.
After arriving here, because there are usually teams mining stones here, the safety factor is relatively high. Fang Senyan and the others were choosing a place when they saw a group of people rushing out of the mountain road next to them. A woman with a silver longbow in her hand was running in the front in a hurry, but when she saw the simple large wooden wheeled cart being pushed by the half-orc slaves, her face suddenly turned red, and she aimed the bow at an orc worker and shot it in the head!
However, this woman's behavior had already been noticed. Zi pointed her hand and pushed away the terrified orc worker. The woman holding the bow had already screamed:
"This is our car! I remember that rock, Second Brother joked at the time that there was gold in this yellow rock!! It's them, they must be the ones who ambushed us!"
As soon as this woman spoke, the people behind her immediately made fighting poses, but obviously, there was someone else in charge. A man holding a wolf-tooth hammer stood out from the crowd. His eyes first stopped on Reef's shield, then he walked out and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, it doesn't seem like you are from the opposite side, I need an explanation."
Ronnie said sharply and sarcastically:
"We came in to complete the task. We encountered a group of dogs from the defense side. After we drove them away, we picked up two carts of wood and stone ore. It's as simple as that."
The woman holding the bow laughed sharply as if she had heard a big joke:
"We were ambushed by a full two teams!! Fifteen strong enemies, and a awakened summoner releasing beasts to suppress the audience. How can you a few people shamelessly say that you drove them away? You must be spies, spies colluding with the opposite side!"
Even Sanzai couldn't stand this woman's unreasonable entanglement. He sighed and walked out and said:
"Seriously, I really don't know how you have lived to this day with a mouth that smells worse than a butt... Is this the beast that you said suppressed the audience? We killed a few and plan to take them back to eat dog meat hot pot tonight."
