There are actually three rows of crystal-like scales growing on the back of a giant python, each scale is the size of a palm, extending from the snake's head to its tail. The other giant python only has a row of crystal scales.
Under the night, the giant python's crystal scales shone faintly, as if a band of light was flowing while swimming, it was extremely mysterious and beautiful.
This is a crystal python, a ferocious beast unique to the Eternal Night Continent. It is famous for its poisonous mist. An adult giant python with three rows of crystal scales has a combat power equivalent to that of a seventh-level or eighth-level human soldier.
Qianye looked at the two crystal pythons, and was thinking whether to go down, but the smaller crystal python was the first to spot someone outside. The python's head was erected vigilantly, and it opened its mouth wide. Sprayed over.
Qianye dodged the poisonous mist sideways, jumped down the cliff without hesitation, and jumped into the crystal python's lair in an instant.
A bright red knife light flashed in the air, and the shining fangs pierced through the head of the crystal python with three rows of back scales. It took Qianye almost 80% of his strength to insert the short knife into the gap in the skull, which shows how hard this big guy's head is. According to this strength, even an eagle strike cannot blast its skull in one go.
The giant python's vitality was extremely tenacious, even though its head was pierced, it still rolled desperately, almost knocking Qianye onto the cave wall. At this moment Qianye finally found a wrestling opponent, with one hand clenched on the shining fangs, the other firmly tightened the crystal python, and as the python rolled, it leaped between the cave walls from time to time, letting the crystal python slam it None were left behind.
After wrestling for a long time, the crystal python lay down and did not move.
The crystal python with a single row of scales on the other side was almost forced out of the cave by the tumbling energy, only then did it find an opportunity, and flew over to attack Qianye. However, its strength was far behind. It was only at the fourth or fifth level, and it died under the shining teeth in the blink of an eye.
When the night was darkest, Qianye climbed back to the top of the cliff. His backpack bulged a lot, filled with palm-sized crystal scales.
The scales of the crystal python have long been proven to be a type of crystal, and when injected with force, it will transform into a beautiful halo. Therefore, the price of crystal python scales is quite high. It is not only a raw material for low-level force arrays, but also a popular jewelry material in the upper continent. It's just that the two crystal pythons were too big, Qianye couldn't take away so many scales, so he only picked the best quality ones to fill a backpack, which was less than a third of the amount.
When Qianye returned to the cave where he lived, a thick layer of blood suddenly appeared on his face, and he spit out clouds of light red mist between breaths.
When beheading the crystal python with three rows of back scales just now, in order to prevent it from dying to fight back, Qianye stabbed the last knife directly into its heart, and immediately a huge amount of blood poured into his body from the shining fangs, almost as strong as It is equivalent to the ninth-level dark warrior, but the quality is very poor and there are many impurities.
Qianye discovered for the first time that he could still draw blood energy from a beast with a dark attribute like the crystal python. Now, it doesn't matter whether the blood energy from the alien beast is pure or not.
However, Qianye was a little puzzled, thinking of a detail that he had overlooked in the past, it seems that most of the alien beasts in the Eternal Night Continent have the force attributes that are on the dark side
For the next period of time, Qianye's itinerary went to several war zones. He followed the signs on the map of the Wei family and went to see several predetermined battlefields of the dark race. He also observed the expeditionary army, the main army of the empire and Participate in the military power of the private army of the family.
For example, it happened several times before when he encountered the private army of the White Clan. Qianye used his super-long-range sniper expertise to help the imperial soldiers speed up or turn the tide of the battle. However, as soon as the battle situation became clear, he left quickly. No more contact with those clans.
On an ordinary morning, on the Yinguang Plain at the northern edge of the Eternal Night Continent, a tragic battle had just ended.
In the past, this endless plain was covered with nocturnal grass, and under the black velvet night, there was a faint silver light. From a distance, the whole plain looked like a huge luminous lake with layers of silver ripples. This used to be a landscape on the Eternal Night Continent. Later, several important strongholds of the expeditionary force were lost nearby. Dark races began to appear on the Silver Light Plain, so no one came to visit.
But now, the entire Silver Light Plain has become unrecognizable, with traces of corrosion and burning everywhere, and some huge craters formed by explosions can reach hundreds of meters in diameter. The silver light grass was almost completely burned, and there were green streams flowing everywhere in the bare brown soil. It was the body fluid of the nerubian. This highly corrosive venom would destroy all life in the soil, and nothing could grow anymore. thing.
Teams of expeditionary forces and Imperial Legion soldiers are cleaning up the battlefield, clearing out the corpses and relics, and then moving them to the designated location. Judging from the control of the battlefield, humans should have won this tragic battle. But no joy could be seen on the faces of a group of imperial generals standing on the edge of the battlefield.
Among the group of generals in military uniform, Bai Ao Cong, who was still wearing a wide-sleeved toga, seemed to be unique. However, she also has unique qualifications. In the Yinguang War Zone, which includes three counties, she is a strong man in command, and can take over the military and political power of the entire theater if necessary.
Although the silver light theater is a secondary theater, there is also a preset battlefield for the dark race. And among the younger generation of powerhouses in the empire, there are still very few people who can independently guard one side.
Bloodstains were all over the white uneven clothes, the shoulders and back were damaged in many places, and the bloody wounds could be vaguely seen. Her face was pale and bloodless, and her breathing was weak and unsteady. It was obvious that she was seriously injured.
Most of the imperial generals around her were more than twice her age, but all of them looked at Bai Bump with admiration and fear. This is not a tribute to the Bai family, but because of her real record. In the just-concluded battle, Bai Aotu almost single-handedly beheaded the strongest opponent, which turned the tide of the battle with difficulty.
Looking at the tragic scene on the battlefield, an old general with gray beard and hair sighed heavily and said, "We... have won, right?"
Another general said with a wry smile: "The dark race was defeated but not chaotic, and the retreat was orderly. We can only be regarded as a small victory."
The old general said with a gloomy expression: "My group army has been wiped out. I may have to cancel the number when I go back."
One person comforted: "No, you have made great contributions, and the empire will definitely rebuild the 133rd Army."
"I hope so." The old general sighed and shook his head, still looking helpless.
These generals naturally knew that although the group army was rebuilt, it would be reduced to the third-rate ranks. A new army could not compare to the team they had brought up over the years.
Bai Bump's drooping eyes suddenly opened, and he said, "The total casualties on our side are more than 100,000?"
A general next to him hurriedly replied: "We are still counting, but according to my estimation, it may be more than 110,000."
Bai Aotu seemed to be talking to himself: "Nearly 10,000 regular soldiers and more than 100,000 cannon fodder died in the dark race. Why are they fighting this battle?"
All the generals looked at each other, but no one could answer. This battle was extremely tragic. The dark races came in like a tide, and they went on and on, completely fearless of life and death. Drag more imperial warriors to die together.
The generals didn't know what to do, and no one dared to speak more.
Bai Aotu suddenly flickered and appeared tens of meters away. He squatted down next to the corpse of an expeditionary soldier, pulled out a short knife, and cut open the expeditionary soldier's chest.
The generals were stunned by her sudden action, and followed her one after another. Bai Bump never does meaningless things, apparently found something abnormal.
Bai Bump pointed at the soldier's body, frowned and said, "Look, he was stabbed between the eyebrows by a high-ranking vampire and died, so his body should not be affected. But now his vitality is draining extremely fast, don't you guys?" Do you think this is unusual?"
Not long after this soldier died in battle, his internal organs showed signs of withering, and such changes continued in various organs in his body. In less than two days, he would completely turn into a mummy.
A general with keen senses suddenly inserted one hand into the ground, then grabbed a lump of soil, squeezed it hard, and blood dripped from his fingers!
Seeing this scene, the general looked solemn and said, "It seems that this land has the effect of absorbing blood and vitality. No wonder I always feel a little heavy in my movements. I can't stay in this place for a long time."
But if it's just the environment, then there's nothing to be afraid of. Everyone present is strong, with solid and powerful blood, and the absorbing power of the Silver Light Plain has no effect on them.
The white and concave eyebrows were locked even tighter, and he said slowly: "Maybe it's not that simple, you all don't forget, those old guys in the Eternal Night Council may be crazy, but there is absolutely no fool. Show me the military map again have a look."
A major general's chief of staff took out the latest military map and pulled it away in front of Bai Outong. On this military map, a total of fifteen battlefields are marked. Including the Silver Light Plain, there have been wars in seven places. The human race has won three and lost four, and is slightly disadvantaged.
This is the preset battlefield of the dark race, so when the human race deploys troops accordingly, they have a slight advantage from the strong to the arrangement of troops. Even so, they still lose more than they win.
Bai Aotu stared at the fifteen battlefields, frowning in silence.
In fact, the Imperial Military Department has already conducted a thorough analysis of these fifteen battlefields, including various connection drawings, but all the drawn patterns are meaningless. There are also many people who have used the secret method of deduction. Even Lin Xitang rushed from the western border to the imperial capital, but even the Dayan Tianji Jue found nothing.
However, this result is not surprising. It is said that several giants of the Eternal Night Council have come to sit on the dark side. With those old guys, how could it be deduced by the secret method of the human race
The old general said at this time: "Miss Bai, we have only fought seven battles now, and there are still eight battles to be fought. Maybe a few more times before we can see some clues."
