Chapter 75: Jungle Quest (4)

Views:

Tang Yi and the giant lizard stared at each other for a moment, not daring to move. Zixi didn't dare to make sound waves at will. Just now, his sound waves didn't hit the monster, but hit the top of the cave, and a lot of soil and gravel were scattered, which made them both feel cold.

The monitor lizard stared at them inexplicably, some dark green liquid leaking from the gap in the sarcoid on his neck, dripping sticky. Tang Yi swallowed, carefully lowered the frequency of the Weibo gun, and aimed the muzzle at the thing's head. He was not sure whether the microwave beam of this level could kill the monster, but it would not melt the rock and cause the cave to collapse.

But just as he was about to pull the trigger, the monster suddenly swooped down at an extremely fast speed and threw Tang Yi to the ground head on. The blood-red mouth bit down at Tang Yi's neck, but Tang Yi held it with a gun. Unexpectedly, the monster's strength was so great that he gritted his teeth, the blue veins on his arms burst out, and he trembled violently.

Tang Yi and the monster scuffled together, Zi Xi was afraid of accidentally hurting Tang Yi, so he couldn't use the sonic attack, so he had to lift a rock and smash the monster's head. Under the pain, the monitor lizard made a sticky and strange cry, and jumped onto the stone wall at once, its limbs and claws were tightly attached to the smooth stone like suction cups, and it roared again.

Disturbingly, from another dark, narrow cave, a similar cry of a baby was heard, seemingly in response to the monitor lizard's cry.

"Damn... He even got help..." Tang Yi shot and smashed, but the thing dodged abruptly, but was burned on the tail. Microwave beams hit the wall, baking the rock red. The monitor lizard became more and more angry, and the sarcomas on its neck bulged, glowing with a bloody green luster. It suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed out a black mucus that smelled of rotting fish. Tang Yi hurriedly jumped back, but his gun was still splashed. I saw that the originally hard metal suddenly melted like cheese, and the disgusting viscous liquid that gradually turned green snot fell to the ground.

Tang Yi hurriedly threw the gun away, took out the dagger from the boot, confronted the monster, and shouted at Zixi, "Help me drive him over!"

Zixi sent several sonic attacks to the monster one after another, forcing the monitor lizard in the direction of Tang Yi. Tang Yi saw the opportunity and rushed forward suddenly. The monitor lizard jumped up and wanted to bite Tang Yi's neck, while Tang Yi stepped on a raised rock on the stone wall and changed the direction of his body abruptly. The monitor lizard failed to bite him, but its sharp claws left a few deep blood marks on his waist. Tang Yi took the opportunity to insert the dagger into the neck of the monitor lizard with his backhand. Green mucus was sprayed on his hand, but there was no burning sensation. It appears that only black slime is corrosive.

The monitor lizard let out a long, heart-shattering cry, and lay on the ground with its four feet upside down and twitched for a while, without making a sound.

Before he could relax his guard, he saw two more monitor lizards burrowing out of the narrow hole on the right. They were not as big as the one just now, but the green sarcomas on the neck made Tang Yi's scalp hairless. numb. He and Zixi looked at each other, and both saw the expression of "Sunday Dog" on each other's faces.

Just as they were about to fight the monster, a brazen sonic attack suddenly struck, sending the two monitor lizards flying out. Looking back, I saw Liu Huo and Mercury came out with a group of disgraced people behind. The two monitor lizards screamed angrily, and suddenly opened their bat wings attached to their hands and feet and swooped down. Tang Yi saw a figure flashed by, and the cold light cut through the sky. When Hetian landed, the head of a monitor lizard had been chopped off by his samurai sword. Tang Yi also flew up the dagger, and the blade accurately fell into the head of another monitor lizard.

"They were calling for their companions just now, and I'm afraid more lizards will come out. We will leave immediately." Tsuruta ordered, everyone followed him and ran to the way, only Zixi grabbed Lanhuang violently, "I found Luo Wei?"

Lan Huang shook his head and said with some reluctance, "We saw his coat. He may have been attacked by monitor lizards who went out for food at night when he was on duty, and now he is probably..."

Zixi's eyes widened slightly, and there was an afterglow that was gradually shattering.

"No... I don't believe it!"

Zixi suddenly turned around, ignoring Lanhuang's call, and headed into the corridor where Hetian and the others came out. The sudden change made everyone dumbfounded, but distant baby-like cries and terrifying sounds similar to laughter were approaching from all directions, and a large number of troll lizards were surrounding them, and it was urgent to evacuate. Tang Yi pulled the dagger from the monitor lizard's corpse, and said to Tsuruta Takumi, "You retreat first, and I'll go after him."

Tsuruta frowned, but did not stop him. Tang Yi glanced at Mercury again, "Don't follow them, go up with them."

Mercury turned a deaf ear, and strode towards him, "Don't talk nonsense, let's go."

Tang Yi saw that Mercury was faster than him, and knew that it was impossible to persuade the Kraken. Although he was annoyed that Mercury never listened to his orders, he couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart.

Wherever he went, Quicksilver would never leave him.

The dark passage was so narrow that people could only crawl on the ground. Tang Yi was crawling with his teeth behind Mercury. The gloomy baby cries that could be heard from time to time in the dark made the whole dark environment even more terrifying, as if he was in a nightmare. . The monitor lizard living in the dark may not have very good eyesight, but his hearing must be extremely sensitive. Neither he nor Mercury dared to make a sound, but there was no way to suppress the sound of panting.

When he reached a more spacious place, Mercury pulled him to stand up straight. In order not to be noticed by the monitor lizard, Tang Yi turned off the light above his head and groped the stone wall in the dark and walked laboriously. The exploratory hand was suddenly firmly held by another slightly cold hand, and Tang Yi opened his eyes wide in the darkness.

Mercury said in infrasonic waves, "That way it won't get lost."

Even though he knew that Mercury was only doing this for safety reasons, Tang Yi's heartbeat would still speed up unconsciously.

It's really strange, obviously he has done more intimate things, just holding hands, not to mention in such a dangerous environment, but his palms are sweaty, and his heart is racing.

The faint glimmer of Mercury's body was the only light source in the darkness, barely able to illuminate the scene within half a meter of the surroundings. The two walked for a while, stopped at the same time, and quickly hid behind a protruding rock wall. On the walls above and opposite their heads, three monster monitor lizards scrambled past, occasionally making several unintelligible grunts. They stopped less than two meters in front of Mercury and Tang Yi, raised their heads, and seemed to be sniffing something in the air.

Tang Yi felt that his heart was in his throat, and the hand holding Mercury couldn't help but squeeze harder. One of the largest monitor lizards suddenly jumped from the top of the cave and crawled in their direction step by step.

Tang Yi thought to himself that it would be impossible to get through this time without fighting to the death. Who knew that at this moment, a siren's scream came from the depths of the cave.

It's Purple Breath!

The three monitor lizards crawled in the direction of the sound immediately, and Tang Yi and Mercury waited for their sound to drift away, and followed them.

After drilling for a while in the intricate cave, a low cliff suddenly appeared in front. The slightly bright figure below is surrounded by more than a dozen monitor lizards, which is Zixi.

But when he looked closely, he was still holding someone in his arms.

Is it Luo Wei? Did he really find it

After being in the dark for a long time, Tang Yi could already vaguely see the outlines of those giant beasts, only to see a black patch below, and there were still a few monitor lizards crawling down on the surrounding stone walls. Looking more closely, the ground was full of animal bones that had been eaten, and some animals that had not been eaten were lying on the side, exuding a rancid smell. It seems that this is where the lizards store their food.

Tang Yi couldn't imagine how Zixi rushed to the middle.

"What should I do?" Tang Yi asked Mercury in a low voice, "too many..."

Mercury looked at the top of the seepage cave and knew that the swamp area where the cave was located was rich in water and soft sand. If he used ultrasonic waves to attack the monitor lizards in a large area, it might cause collapse. People have headaches. Although Mercury was always upset that Luo Wei came to "harass" Tang Yi when he had nothing to do, he didn't want Tang Yi to blame himself for his death.

Mercury thought for a while, closed his eyes, and let his thoughts sink into a deep sea of consciousness.

In the deep sea before, he had discovered that he could communicate with the consciousness of the fish in the sea, and even summoned them for his own use. But these lizards are reptiles, and I don't know if I can control them.

Mercury entered a stagnant sound wave space with another consciousness, and carefully analyzed the calls of those monitor lizards. After a while, I saw Mercury opened his mouth and made a strange sound similar to that of a baby crying.

Tang Yi took a step back in fright, "Fuck... this can be... "

All the lizards suddenly raised their heads and looked at the hole where the two of them were staying. Those godless eyes couldn't really see Tang Yi and Mercury, but they still made them chill.

Mercury called out again. A giant lizard with more sarcoma on its neck than the other monitor lizards responded first, and then the other lizards responded.

Tang Yi was stunned to see that Mercury had contacts with those monsters, thinking that he might be negotiating with those reptiles...

Mercury said to Tang Yi at this time, "Let's go down."

"… you sure?"

Quicksilver said, "I'm not sure, but is there any other way?"

The two stepped on the raised rock and jumped down from the hole, where the monitor lizard suddenly scattered in a circle. Tang Yi followed behind Mercury and walked forward cautiously. From time to time, Mercury still made a tone of inexplicable meaning similar to that of a small baby. The black lizards on both sides were covered with a layer of fluorescent green luster, but they never came up. Tang Yi walked in fear, holding his dagger tightly in his hand. .

He came to the center of the encirclement without any danger, but Zixi seemed to be unaware of their arrival, just hugging Luo Wei's lifeless body covered in blood. Tang Yi felt a chill in his heart when he saw this, he immediately turned on the light on his head, and went forward to feel the pulse on Luo Wei's neck, but he couldn't feel anything, so he hurriedly put the dagger across to Luo Wei's face During this period, Zi Xi grabbed his wrist suddenly, but only slowly let go after seeing Tang Yi's soothing eyes.

Tang Yi put the dagger between Luo Wei's nose, held his breath and waited for a while, and finally saw a thin layer of mist on the dagger.

"He's still breathing!"

Zixi's body was shocked, and she reached out and gently stroked Luo Wei's cheek. Tang Yi pressed his shoulder, "We have to go out quickly..."

Zixi wanted to pick up Luo Wei, but the physique of the Krakens was never as strong as that of humans, and after trying several times, he couldn't pull Luo Wei. When Tang Yi saw this, he simply bent down and picked Luo Wei up like he was carrying a bag of rice.

But when they were about to leave, the monitor lizards blocked the way.

Quicksilver began to negotiate with them again, but the strongest monitor lizard, who seemed to be the leader, kept pressing, each time getting louder and louder, and even hissing threateningly. Tang Yi mumbled, "It's not the negotiation that is about to break down..."

Mercury was also angry, and there was a cold light in his eyes. These cunning reptiles are really not as friendly as whales, and it seems that they just wanted to lure them down and catch them all before assuming a non-threatening posture for a while.

The IQ of these lizards is so high...

Mercury made a strange low but continuous sound, and the invisible sound waves stirred up layer by layer with him as the center. He was trying to hypnotize the lizard. The hypnotism he learned before was all aimed at humans, and had never been performed on animals, especially reptiles, and he was not sure whether it would be successful. He controlled his voice very carefully, keeping the fluctuations in the right frequency. Gradually, the monitor lizards closest to them started shaking their heads and moving slowly. Then the monitor lizards behind them were also affected.

Tang Yi thought that Mercury was indeed a copy of Chen Yuan... Even reptiles could be hypnotized. If one day the power of Mercury is fully awakened, and the sea-monsters rebel like Chen Yuan, how much chance do humans have

Inexplicably, his hair became cold, and he quickly shifted his thoughts, followed closely behind Mercury and carefully moved towards the entrance of the hole when they came.

But at this moment, the leader monitor lizard suddenly gave a strange cry. A sharp cry suddenly disturbed Mercury's sound waves. For a moment, the monitor lizards, who were still drowsy just now, suddenly woke up from the fog, opened their blood-red huge mouths and showed sharp teeth, and rushed towards them.

Before I had time to think about it, the ultrasonic waves of mercury exploded like a nuclear bomb, hitting and strengthening on the stone wall. The lizards crawling on the ground rolled up like a black tide, slamming against the stone wall, and dark green mucus flew all over the sky. At the same time, the entire cave was crumbling under the impact of violent sound waves, and large blocks of boulders collapsed. Tang Yi carried Luo Wei and quickly flashed to a depression between the stone walls. There was a deafening bang all around, and countless stones fell from the sky and hit his arched back. A slightly larger stone hit his forehead, making him dizzy, and he fell into a ball with Luo Wei when his body was tilted. At this moment, a huge stalagmite fell from the sky, and it was about to hit Luo Wei's head...

Zixi rushed over and blocked the boulder with his body. I saw a mouthful of blood from the Kraken's mouth, and the whole person fell on Luo Wei's body.

"Purple Breath!!!" Tang Yi crawled over against the wall while dodging the falling stones, pulling the two of them close to the stone wall with all his strength. He raised his eyes anxiously, but he couldn't see where the clear silver was. The endless smoke and dust flew in all directions, and the sound of landslides and cracks made him suddenly feel that this time he was really going to explain it here.

When the loud noise faded away, Tang Yi dared to let go of the hands protecting the back of his head and tried to move his body. It was pitch black all around, and the body was squeezed by something hard. He reached forward and felt a faint moan.

"Luo Wei? Or Zixi?"

"Tang... Big Brother?"

"Luo Wei!!!" Tang Yi quickly fumbled over Luo Wei's body and felt the other side's chest rise and fall, "Are you alright! Where's Zixi?"

"Zi Xi... in my arms..." Luo Wei's voice trembled, "what's wrong with him... he has blood on his body!"

Tang Yi thought of the last sight he saw, and was a little afraid to tell Luo Wei. It is very likely that Zi Xi had suffered serious internal injuries. If he did not get medical treatment quickly, he might not last long.

The other thing he was even more anxious about was where the mercury was now. They were still buried under heavy rocks. Mercury was in the center of the entire cave at that time. Could it be…

A throbbing pain made his internal organs twist in one place, and the deep sense of fear made him short of breath. The stone he struck hard called the name of Quicksilver.

"Brother Tang..." Luo Wei's weak voice temporarily replaced a trace of rationality in Tang Yi's panicked mind. He suddenly remembered that he had a communicator on him. Immediately he fumbled for the small circular instrument from his pocket and stuffed it into his ear.

"Tsuruda! Tsuruta! Can you hear me? Tsuruta!"

After a long period of silence, there was a rustling of electromagnetic interference in the headset, which was so severe that it was harsh, but human voices could be vaguely heard. Tang Yi didn't care what the other party said, and said quickly, "I'm Tang Yi, the cave we were in collapsed, and now we're buried, Zi Xi and Luo Wei are both injured, Mercury's life and death is unknown, we need to Help!" He said it many times in a row, and when he said it for the third time, the communication was cut off.

Tang Yi was stunned for a while, then began to beat the stone wall hard again. He didn't know his hand had tapped blood, just desperately needed to do something, desperately need Quicksilver to hear him.

It wasn't until he heard a familiar infrasound wave vibrating along the stone that the heart hanging in his throat finally fell to the ground. He shouted the name of Mercury into the crevices of the rock, and he heard the outer stones blasting apart in infrasonic resonance. He squeezed Luo Wei's hand and said excitedly, "Hold on! Mercury has come to save us, and we can go out soon!"

When a stone in front of him was reduced to the end of a meter in the infrasonic resonance, Tang Yi couldn't wait to squeeze the other stones and drilled out. He didn't even see Mercury's face clearly, so he slammed on it and hugged the silver-haired Kraken so tightly that the exhausted Kraken suddenly had the illusion that he was about to suffocate.

Tang Yi buried his head in the silver hair that was covered with mud and knotted, feeling that the heart that had been up and down in his chest was finally returning to its original position.

"Tang... Ya?" Mercury wasn't sure if Luo Wei could hear their conversation, so he didn't dare to call Tang Yi's name just to be on the safe side. Tang Yi only felt happy and sour in his heart, and the taste was indescribable.

"I almost thought you were crushed to death..." Tang Yi said in a sullen voice.

Mercury lowered her eyes, and her dirty face softened a little. He raised his arm hesitantly, not knowing if it was to appease him or not, he hugged Tang Yi's waist with his backhand.

Tang Yi felt Mercury's response, and instantly felt an unprecedented sense of peace of mind. It was as if he had suddenly entered a safe space, and there was no need to be afraid of what happened again.

Then Tang Yi suddenly broke free from Mercury's embrace, "Zi Xi was seriously injured, we have to find a way to get out quickly." He turned around and pulled Luo Wei and Zi Xi out, who had lost consciousness again. Luo Wei lost a lot of blood, but many wounds are already scabbed, all of which are skin injuries. Although it looks terrible, as long as it is not infected, it should not be life-threatening. However, Zixi was smashed by the boulder and had internal bleeding, and the situation was in critical condition.

Mercury checked Zixi's situation, carefully turned the purple-haired Kraken over, and put his hands on the bloody skin that the boulder hit. Tang Yi watched him close his eyes, and the shimmering light around his body became more and more dazzling. He began to sing a tune that Tang Yi was familiar with. The secluded lyrics with a strong ancient rhyme matched the melody of thousands of turns, but the invisible music seemed to have turned into a tangible holy light, lingering around the Kraken's body. Tang Yi saw a light streamer flowing from his palm, sneaking into the purple-haired Kraken's skin, flowing in his blood. Purple Breath's skin seemed to have become transparent, and the healing power was surging in it.

After knowing that this song was written by Tang Ya as a birthday present to him, and listening to this song again, Tang Yi only felt a dull pain in his heart. Obviously it was just a casual bet made when I was a child, but my brother has always remembered it.

Looking at the Kraken shrouded in a clean and holy halo in front of him, Tang Yi couldn't help thinking, if Mercury knew that this song so important to him was actually given to him by Tang Ya, he felt in his heart. Will you also taste the bitterness that you once tasted

Zixi's wound is healing at an amazing speed visible to the naked eye, and it seems that the power of mercury is getting stronger and stronger. It's just that Tang Yi remembered the last time Mercury exhausted his strength to save him, and then he lay in the hospital bed for a month before waking up. I hope the same thing won't happen again this time...

Mercury's singing stopped, he slowly opened his eyes and withdrew his palms. The wound on Zixi's back was gone, only a faint red mark remained. Mercury's face was tired, and his face was much paler than usual. Apparently, he attacked the monitor lizards with ultrasonic waves before, and later used infrasound waves to dig them out. In addition, he used the healing technique to stop the bleeding of the purple breath, which consumed too much biological energy.

However, Mercury obviously intends to continue to heal Luo Wei. He put his palm on the deepest claw mark on Luo Wei's chest and closed his eyes to enter the depths of consciousness, but Tang Yi suddenly heard an imperceptible rustling sound. Rear approaching. And because he was too tired and focused on healing, Mercury didn't notice anything unusual.

He could not see clearly in the dark, but at that moment he seemed to suddenly have night vision ability, he saw the blood-stained monitor lizard leader's degenerated eyes swollen with deep anger and hatred, the sarcoma on his neck All of them spewed angrily, their mouths opened wide, and a hot black venom sprayed towards the mercury.

Tang Yi didn't even have time to shout, and his body responded even faster than his voice. When he threw the mercury to the ground, he couldn't completely avoid the attack of the monitor lizard, and his left eye was splashed with a few drops of venom.

But just a few drops of venom are enough to burn through flesh and even bones.

Tang Yi only felt that his left eye was burning as if it had exploded. He's not someone who can't bear the pain, even when he was on a rescue mission and was pierced with a big hole by lev34, he never called. But now he is screaming, but rolling on the ground and screaming without image. It was so painful, he never knew that the pain could reach this point, as if all the pain nerves were burning at the same time, and it seemed as if someone was gouging out his eyeballs.

Even the hoarse cry of the mercury seemed so far away. Only the word "pain" remained in his consciousness.

When the pain reached Phoenix, Qingming's consciousness broke into pieces, and Tang Yi fell into the benevolent embrace of a coma.
