Reign of the Hunters

Chapter 262: Fantasy or reality

Views:

Shimen looks like a huge, dark mouth, and the Doro people stand in the mouth like this. People also came out. When all the people came out, this is, the Doro, who was the leader, approached the stone gate and pressed lightly on an ordinary stone that could not be used on ordinary stones. Ye Ci heard the crisp "click" sound again, and then the stone gate slowly rose.

"Lord Nobo is relieved now, I said from the beginning that it is impossible for the White Elf and Dero to discover this secret, and this secret, I am afraid that Darufal will not discover it.

. "

"Be careful sailing the thousand-year-old ship, that white elf is so valued by Darufal, it is normal for Lord Nobo to be careful." The Doro man at the head finally showed a smile on his face, and he directed at the others. Luo Ren nodded: "Okay, let's go back quickly, we've stayed here for a long time, I'm afraid that someone will find out, and if Darufal or that white elf meets, we will even risk extra things. Out."

"Yes!" A group of Doro people lined up neatly in front of Ye Ci and left quickly.

They were still talking in a low voice as they walked, but at this time, no matter what they said, they were no longer attractive to Ye Ci. Because of the current Ye Ci, all the attraction is placed on the stone gate just now.

She followed behind a group of people and confirmed that they had all left the dark cave, and began to climb in the direction of the tribe, and then quickly answered the bottom of the dark cave. Found Araunah.

"Where have you been?" Arauna crawled out of the cracks in the thin stone and let out a long breath. "I saw someone from the Nob Guard come over just now. It scared me to death. Fortunately, he didn't find me. If he found me, I didn't change my clothes. I don't know how to explain it."

"Isn't this not found?" Ye Ci smiled slightly.

"It's too thrilling." Arauna patted his chest and let out a long breath. He could see that the Doro man's search just made him extremely nervous, and then he looked at Ye Ci again: "You I haven't answered yet. Where have you been?"

"I went with Nob's Guard."

"Ah! Are the Nob Guards here? What are they coming for? Are they here to arrest me!" It could be seen that Araunah was very afraid of the Nob Guards, which might have something to do with the fact that he was often bullied by these people. Even if he is now a powerful shaman, he still sweats nervously when he mentions these people.

"No. They're just looking for something." Ye Ci waved at Araunah, motioning him to follow him.

"what?"

"I don't know that."

Araunna scratched his hair and looked strange: "Come looking for something in the dark cave? What could it be?"

Ye Ci looked at Arauna with a smile, then turned and walked in front

. As he walked, he said, "Araunah, does your tribe have a forbidden land or something?"

"Forbidden land?" Arauna followed Ye Ci's side, and when he turned his head, he saw Ye Ci's pointed ears, and he began to reach out and touch his own ears again. "What forbidden place?"

"It's a place that no one can get close to." Seeing Araunna's strange expression, Ye Ci explained it again according to the words he could understand.

Araunah shook his head into a rattle. Then he said: "No! In our tribe, where you can go, Lord Darufal has never drawn any forbidden area." Having said this, he tilted his head and frowned and said, "However, after a few days. A few years ago, Lord Noble told Lord Darufal that the magma people in this dark cave were very dangerous and could hurt people at any time. The kids are getting closer. Until now. Even going down to the sinkhole to mine is restricted."

"You mean, so your children can come here casually?"

"Yeah! However, how can a child dare to enter the dark cave. The magma people here are very fierce, and the children are scared to death. They only dare to play outside." Arauna seemed to recall the time when he was a child: " When I was a child, I used to bring Mara to the Tiankeng to pick up stones to play, but later, the Tiankeng was not allowed to enter. Only those who have the permission of Lord Darufal can enter here." Arauna affirmed. Answer: "I didn't come in after I joined the Nob Guard. I brought you here according to my childhood memory."

Ye Ci nodded, as if he had a general understanding of what was going on.

It turns out that this forbidden area has not always existed, but has been slowly formed recently. The question Nob posed to Darufal was not a recent one. According to Araunah, these magma people had been around since they were children, but why didn't Nob raise it before? After he proposed it, he even invited Darufal to inspect the place himself, which showed that he was not afraid of what Darufal found, or that he was open-minded.

If, indeed, that's the case, what is that door

Ye Ci fell into contemplation. It seems that whatever he thinks now is in vain. The easiest way is to open the door directly, and then go behind the door to see what is going on.

Nobo must be hiding some secrets, as the so-called villain grows up. This is inevitable.

But does Darufal have to be a gentleman? If he was a gentleman, why didn't he tell Ye Ci that this was a forbidden place? Did he think it was unnecessary to say it, or did he simply forget about it, or did he mean something else

As Ye Ci walked in the direction of Shimen, he secretly speculated about these things.

.

Because it is a holographic game, all NPCs in all games are independent individuals, especially NPCs like Darufal are representatives of high intelligence. They are no different from ordinary humans, except for some In addition to the basic attributes left by the npc itself, he is basically a living person. He has a human intelligence quotient, a human emotion, and a human ** and weakness. so. You need to be more careful when dealing with such NPCs, or you will be calculated if you are not careful.

Araunah looked very strange. He was talking about something along the way, but Ye Ci was thinking about other things and didn't hear what he said, just perfunctory him, he was not angry, this A simple child who often talks to himself and is easily satisfied and happy.

Soon, Ye Ci walked to Shimen with Araunna. Araunah looked around and found nothing. He looked at Ye Ci and said strangely: "White Elf, where are we going? It's over here, and we've already been here just now."

Ye Ci squinted his eyes and didn't answer Arauna's words directly, but walked to the position of the Doro man headed just now, stretched out his hand and carefully stroked the area he had just searched for. The Doro man was moving very fast just now. It was so close that Ye Ci could only see a general area, but there was no way to see which stone it was, so now she could only stroke one by one. Well, not much range. As long as she doesn't miss any stone or any gap, she will never find this trap.

Araunah stood beside Ye Ci. He got close to the place Ye Ci was touching and looked at it carefully, suddenly he stretched out his hand and pressed it gently towards a protruding stone. Next, a rumbling sound was heard, and Shimen slowly fell.

Arauna was obviously frightened by this situation, he jumped back suddenly, and then hid behind Ye Ci, until he found that a stone gate had fallen, he stuck his head out and looked at the stone gate and said, "This is a stone gate. what is the place?"

And Ye Ci looked at the stone gate in amazement, she looked back at Arauna and then looked at the stone gate. Finally, she looked at the place where Araunna pressed it, but she still couldn't see anything. "Araunah, where did you press just now?"

"Here." Arauna looked at Ye Ci strangely. Pointing to a protruding stone: "Don't you see such a big stone?"

leaf word horrified

. She really didn't see it, even if Arauna pointed at the stone now, she still didn't see anything, but when she reached out to touch it, it was blank, there was nothing at all! She was shocked! No wonder these Doro people have no fear, no wonder they couldn't find the mechanism, so it is, so it is!

Except for the people of the Doro people's own race, there is no way for foreigners to touch or discover this organization at all! Ye Ci didn't know what they got here. In short, this hidden effect made Ye Ci couldn't help but be amazed.

Ye Ci took a deep breath. She glanced at Arauna and nodded: "Okay, let's go in."

No wonder Nob asked Araun to follow him. It seemed that in addition to hating Araunah, it was because Araunah didn't know his secret at all. He is so reassuring to let himself enter the dark cave every day, and he is not afraid, because although he is keen, he will never discover this mechanism, and although Arauna is a Doro, he is not keen and understanding of this kind of thing, if no one points out Araunah would never find out if it was an agency.

Ye Ci couldn't help laughing at herself in her heart. She thought that Nobo was an NPC with a relatively low IQ, but from this point of view, this guy is probably not much stupider than Darufal, or in other words, he will be smarter.

"Go in?" Arauna couldn't help shivering as she looked at the dark cave. For some reason, looking at the hole that looked like a big devil's mouth, a deep fear surged in his heart, swallowing his courage little by little.

"Are you afraid?" Ye Ci glanced at Arauna, his pale face was full of fear for this place.

Arauna glanced at Ye Ci and remembered that when he and Ye Ci first arrived in the dark cave, Ye Ci had something to say to him. He took a deep breath and tried to throw the fear out of his mind. After a while, he finally calmed down the agitation in his heart before shaking his head firmly: "No, I'm not afraid."

Ye Ci raised his eyebrows, this child has grown up, sooner or later, he will become a senior shaman, or a top shaman, Ye Ci seems to have seen that day. She nodded and walked towards the dark hole: "Do you have Illumination?"

"Yes." Arauna was stunned for a moment, hurriedly chanted a spell, lit a bright light ball in the palm of his hand, and quickly caught up with Ye Ci's footsteps. Then follow her down the cave.

It was a stairway that seemed to have no end, and it was so tiresome that one could hardly breathe. Ye Ci carefully walked ahead, she amplified her perception to the highest point, and turned all her 3.6 million pores into radar. No matter where there is any problem, the arrow in her hand will shoot without hesitation

.

Here is Nobo's secret, it will definitely not be so safe, there will definitely be a mechanism.

This is what Ye Ci guessed, but after walking down the stairs, Ye Ci didn't find any mechanism. Did you think wrong

Ye Ci stood at the last level of stairs. Looking around carefully, I found nothing, nothing. Ye Ci took a breath, maybe he really thought wrong. She was about to step down the stairs, but was grabbed by Araun behind her. Ye Ci turned to look at Arauna, a little strange: "What's wrong?"

"Wait a minute! I'll lead the way!" Arauna immediately shook his head, indicating that Ye Ci couldn't go down.

"Why?" Ye Ci felt that his perception was much stronger than that of Rauna. If you lead the way yourself, you can at least find many traps, but if you lead the way by Araunah, I am afraid that nothing will be found.

Araunah looked at Ye Ci. Reaching out and dancing in front of her eyes, his expression was as if something had gone wrong with Ye Ci's strength. Ye Ci couldn't help but laugh a little. Reached out and took his hand: "What are you doing? I'm not blind."

"If you're not blind, didn't you see the lava below the stairs?" Yaruna's face was pale, and Ye Ci's move that he almost stepped on just now scared him into a panic, so he hurriedly grabbed her.

"Magma?" Ye Ci looked incredulous. She looked down at the pitch-black ground. What kind of magma was there? Moreover, if there is lava, it should be very hot, but why can't she feel the heat at all? Did he see it wrong, or did Araunna have hallucinations. She shook her head: "There is no magma here. Isn't there a black ground below?"

"No, there must be magma." Araunah was rarely so persistent, and he still shook his head. Deny the statement of this leaf word, in his opinion. There is danger here.

Ye Ci frowned. Starting from the agency just now, what he and Arauna saw were different. Who the hell had the hallucination? Ye Ci looked at Araunah, should he believe Araunah? After thinking for a while, she drew an arrow from behind and threw it towards the black ground. Then, she saw that the arrow was swallowed by the ground in an instant, not even a trace of smoke was left. Down, it's like being thrown into the lava!

Ye Ci was shocked!

Actually, it's really so

!

She has always been very confident in herself, but now, but now, everything in reality tells Ye Ci that she is blinded by her own eyes! She looked up at this extremely ordinary cave, and she couldn't help but feel a little surprised. In her eyes, it looked like this, but what did it look like in Araunah's eyes? Ye Ci turned to look at Arauna, and saw that although the child was pale, there was a thunderous tenacity in his eyes, she thought, she might be able to guess what kind of terrifying it was in Arauna's eyes The scenery, but he did not flinch, but offered to lead the way at such a time, what kind of courage should this be

Just looking at Arauna for a while, Ye Ci's face showed a shallow smile, she reached out and patted Arauna's shoulder: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"I confirm." Araunah nodded vigorously, then took a deep breath: "My father is a warrior of the Doro people, I will never be a coward, I swear in the name of my dead father, I will Make sure to do it."

Ye Ci raised his eyebrows, but did not speak.

And Araunah continued to say: "White Elf, from the very beginning you were teaching me, and you were protecting me. This time, I will protect you."

Ye Ci looked at Araunah for a while, then finally lowered her eyelids, took a few steps back, and gave Araunna the position of leading the way, her voice was low and calm: "I hand my life into your hands superior."

Ye Ci's words made Araunah's body shake. It seems that Ye Ci's words were a very heavy pressure for Araunah. However, this pressure did not necessarily crush him. Nodding, then walked to the front, standing on the last flight of stairs. He took a deep breath and said to Ye Ci: "In front of us is a piece of magma, and there is a passage above the lava, but the stone in this passage is extremely narrow, you must step on it. I walked where I stepped, or I would fall."

Although the dark ground in front of him did not make any difference to Ye Ci, Ye Ci still nodded. She has never been so passive as she is now, and everything she sees and hears may be false. She couldn't make any judgments, and in the end she could only entrust everything to an npc child and trust him unconditionally.

This is really too risky for Ye Ci.

However, since time immemorial. Benefits and risks go hand in hand. Ye Ci never thought she was a good child, she knew that she was actually only a gambler

. But now, she just wants to make a bet with herself.

Arauna started to walk away, his footsteps were steady and powerful but very slow, as if he wanted to make Ye Ci behind him see clearly. He lifted his foot. Stepping on a stone, Ye Ci clearly wrote down the stone. Just as he was about to step down, he heard a rumbling sound from the top of the stairs behind him. Ye Ci and Arauna both looked back, and it seemed that the stone gate at the entrance had been closed.

Ye Ci thought to himself that he knew the location of the organs that came in from the outside, but not the location of the organs that went out from the inside. Even after exploring this forbidden area, he might not be able to go out, which was a bit embarrassing. However, things must have come to this point, and it is really redundant to think about this issue again. Now I just have to keep going, go to the innermost and see what I can find.

Ye Ci followed Arauna step by step, she was impartial. He will never act casually on his own, he must walk where Araunah has stepped. This made it a lot easier for both of them.

I don't know how long it took to walk, but Ye Ci looked up and saw a crystal clear lake. However, she didn't trust her eyes very much, but stopped and asked, "Araunah, is there a lake in front of you?"

"Yes." Although Araunah wondered why there was such a clear lake in a place full of magma, he still answered Ye Ci honestly: "There are a lot of flowers blooming on the top of the lake. The flowers, very beautiful, I have never seen before."

However, for Ye Ci, she was at a loss. She didn't see anything, except for a clear lake, she didn't see anything. Arauna looked at Ye Ci's blank expression and knew that she was different from what she saw, so she could only sigh: "We will go ashore with a few more stones, you follow me."

Ye Ci stopped talking, nodded, and stepped on Araunah's footprints and quickly landed.

Although in Ye Ci's view, the so-called shore is no different from the place she just walked, but now she doesn't believe her eyes anymore.

"There is a very clear lake in front. The lake is full of flowers and fog. I don't know what this means." Arauna stood beside Ye Ci and described what she saw to Ye Ci listen.

Ye Ci nodded. Although all she saw in front of her eyes were illusory scenes, it did not mean that she had lost all her abilities. At least she hasn't lowered her map sensitivity at all. She stood by the lake, walked left and right, finally found a position, took the arrow from behind, and shot an arrow toward the middle of the lake. The white bone arrow made a sharp whistle, rubbing the surface of the water and moving fast.

. And the traces it left on the water have become the best reference for Ye Ci as a judgment.

Sure enough, where Araunah described the flowers, the Bone Arrows would be somewhat blocked, which can be easily seen from the traces on the water. Ye Ci's memory was good. After sending out more than 30 arrows, he remembered the positions of the relatively large clusters of flowers on the entire lake. Next, what she wants to experiment is whether the lake water is poisonous.

She looked at her body, and there was an intermediate-level antidote. The general poison could be cured, and even if her blood thickness could not remove the poison, with the support of the blood bottle, it should not be fatal. Squatting by the lake, Ye Ci stretched out his hand and gently stroked the clear lake water.

Immediately, ripples appeared on the calm lake, and the clear water droplets churned with Ye Ci's hand. There were many beautiful stones under the water, Ye Ci reached out and grabbed a handful, wanting to test if there was any danger, but nothing happened. Ye Ci then straightened up and said to Arauna, "Can you swim?"

"Of course, we deal a lot with mermen. If you can't swim, there's no way to live."

"Okay, let's swim over."

Araunah nodded and followed Ye Ci into the lake. Ye Ci did not forget to explain to Araunah: "I can't see the flowers, so there is no way to test what will happen to them, so don't get close to them, and if I get close, also remind me."

Ye Ci was a little discouraged, she didn't have any underwater breathing medicine on her body, and even the fishing rod with underwater breathing skills was put in the warehouse by her. It seems that plans never change quickly, and you never know what you need. It's a pity that the package on my body is too small to fit so many things. It seems after going out from here. She'll have to figure out how to get some bigger packages.

Araunna and Ye Ci were swimming slowly in the lake, and Araunah held a cane with lighting on it, so that the two would not lose their direction in the dark environment.

Suddenly Ye Ci heard some voices. It's piercing and annoying. She looked around, but couldn't find it, and Araunah said in a panic, "The white elf. Look, look under the water!"

Ye Ci then lowered his head. I only saw that many merman-like monsters were constantly swimming under him and Arauna. They wanted to rush up, but they seemed to be worried about something, so they held back. Ye Ci threw them a reconnaissance skill, and found that their levels were not high, all of them were ordinary monsters around level 70, but there were too many of these monsters.

"What is this?" Arauna was so nervous, she grabbed Ye Ci's arm tightly: "They look like mermaids.

. "

"This is a water demon." Ye Ci looked at the monster attribute on the reconnaissance and told Arauna, "It's actually similar to a mermaid. They all live by eating human flesh."

"What!" Arauna was taken aback, the lighting on the staff almost went out, and the water demon below immediately started to move. There were even brave ones who had already rushed towards the two of them and jumped out of the water. He opened his mouth to attack the two of them.

"Illumination!" Ye Ci hurriedly shouted, and Yarau took a shocking spirit and immediately ignited another illumination technique. Ye Ci raised his hand and waved, and the light ball raised by the illumination technique jumped up and rushed towards the other. The two water demons shot away. Unbiased, the light ball just hit the water demon's face, the water demon's sharp fingers immediately covered his face, screamed, and jumped into the bottom of the water again, not daring to come up again.

And taking advantage of this moment, Ye Ci could see the appearance of the water demon clearly.

In fact, the water demon and the mermaid look very similar. However, the upper body of the mermaid is exactly the same as that of the human, while the upper body of the water monster has many characteristics of fish. For example, their scales are distributed on their chests, there are webs between their hands, there are many fins under their arms, and their ears are also shaped like fins. , but a clear skin.

After Ye Ci destroyed Arauna's lighting technique, Araunah quickly lit another lighting technique, and took a look around according to Ye Ci's instructions. The pure white light reflected on the water surface, illuminating the dark lake surface with a morbid light.

The water demon who was attacked by Ye Ci just now seemed to be injured, and had been curled up in the water demon group, unable to move, while the other water demons surrounded him, grinning in the direction of the two of them, but still grinning. Hesitantly, he didn't dare to go forward, and just wandered back and forth at the bottom of the water not far from the two of them.

Ye Ci looked at the water demon under the water, thought for a while, and said to Arauna, "Throw this ball of light toward the location where the water demon is concentrated, and then click another one."

Araun nodded, and immediately threw the ball of light in his hand toward the place where the water monsters were most dense, and another ball of light was lit in the other hand. The ball of light that was thrown into the water immediately aroused the panic of the water demons. They fled around and made a shrill cry, looking very scared.

Araunah was a little strange: "They seem to be afraid of light."

"Well, didn't you see that they don't have eyes?"

Araunah also saw this just now, so he was even more strange: "Yeah, they don't have eyes, why are they afraid of light?"

"General water monsters have eyes, but these water monsters don't have eyes, which means it has something to do with the environment they live in.

. You see, there is no daylight here, so in the long run, the eyes of these water monsters have degenerated, and the other organs of the water monsters who have lost their sight must be more sensitive. I don't know where they are particularly sensitive to light sources. In short, we just need to know that they are afraid of light, so as long as we light the lighting spell, then we don't have to be afraid that these water monsters will approach us. "Ye Ci gave Arauna an analysis of her understanding of the water demon.

Araunah nodded, and kept lighting illumination with both hands to ensure the safety of the two. I don't know how long it took to swim forward. Ye Ci stopped again, pulled up the bow and arrow and released arrows in all directions. The bone arrows caused a string of water marks on the water surface. Mark confirmed the direction again.

"It's foggy ahead." Arauna reminded Ye Ci. But Ye Ci couldn't see it.

Ye Ci sometimes felt that there was nothing wrong with this, she could make the most accurate judgment based on the combination of Araunna and what she saw.

"Don't stop the lighting technique, we keep swimming forward. According to the direction of the stagnation of the bone arrow just now, I think there should be a platform in front." Ye Ci judged that there was at least a solid in front of her just in front of her according to the sound of the bone arrow disappearing. 's table. It's just that she can't see it in her field of vision.

"I don't know, I can't see it. I just think there is fog all around." Araunna looked around, but couldn't see anything. He didn't dare to stop the illumination technique in his hand, and he even released it more eagerly than before.

Ye Ci raised the bow again. A few arrows were released towards the front, and after listening to the echo carefully. Say to Araunah, "There's a platform thirty yards in front of me. I don't know where to go. Look carefully."

Araunah kept throwing the ball of light in front of the two of them, hoping to disperse the dense fog, but it was still in vain. After they had to swim forward for a while, Araunah finally fainted. A dark high platform was found in the fog.

"I found it!" Araunah said excitedly, he started lighting with one hand, while the other hand pulled Ye Ci and swam towards the table. After swimming to the edge of the platform, Arauna placed the ball of light in his hand on each step: "White Elf. You look at the ball of light, and the place where the ball of light is placed is the step."

This is a good way, Ye Ci quickly climbed the ladder

. The ladder is not long. It was only about tenth level, and then Ye Ci stepped on a cold and hard platform.

There was nothing in Ye Ci's eyes. It was pitch black everywhere, and she seemed to be suspended above a lake.

"What's on this table?" Ye Ci stood there and looked around, but found nothing.

"There is a stone pillar three yards in front of you, with a book at the top of the pillar." Arauna looked at the environment in front of him and gave Ye Ci a detailed description: "I can't seem to get close to that stone pillar, just now Walked over and was pushed back. You can try and see if you can touch it."

Ye Ci nodded and walked straight ahead according to Arauna's description. Sure enough, when she walked about three yards, she felt her toes hit something hard. It can be seen that this is the pillar that is invisible to her. She raised her hand on her chest and asked, "Is the book in this position?"

"Go down a bit." Arauna is now like Ye Ci's eyes, guiding her in the direction ahead.

Ye Ci began to correct the position according to Araunna's guidance. Soon, she adjusted the position, took a deep breath, and slowly and gently put down her hand. The moment Ye Ci's hand touched the rough touch, she only felt that a white light flashed in front of her eyes. The white light was so dazzling that she didn't know what was going on at all, and she fell into dizziness. among.

In the vertigo, Ye Ci heard the system prompt sound.

"You found a mission map: Saga Temple."

Saga Temple

Ye Ci's mind was confused, but his eyes were blindingly white. He didn't know where he was, but he felt that his hands and feet were too soft to use any strength. But despite this, there was still a question that kept lingering in her mind, making her already confused mind even more confused.

Why is Saga Temple so familiar? Where did it come from, why can't I remember it at all

He was always in a daze, until someone pushed him, Ye Ci woke up in a trance. She raised her head and looked, only to see a person squatting in front of her, facing the light, so she couldn't see the expression on his face, but she could hear his hurried voice keep saying: "White Elf , White Elf, what's wrong with you?" (To be continued)
