"Martin, are your wounds okay?" Luna walked towards Martin and asked worriedly.
Martin shook his head slightly, "It's been treated, the wound is not infected, don't worry."
"That's good." Luna glanced at his bandaged wound and breathed a sigh of relief.
Ian waited for everyone to adjust, then said: "Let's go." Saying this, he took the lead to open the way ahead.
Martin and Rosemary and others followed closely behind.
Du Dian glanced at Eugene, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. He was ready to find an opportunity to get rid of this person in the next battle, and tortured the mastermind who sent him here by the way.
The mountain is hazy with fog, the air is humid, and there is a faint smell of rot and fishy smell.
Ian took the lead and walked towards the dense fog. His magic scar ability can control body temperature and sense the temperature difference in the surrounding air. It can be described as a precise human body thermometer. Of course, this is only one of his abilities, which is suitable for camouflage .
"It's a bit weird." After climbing more than two hundred meters, Martin suddenly said.
Ian paused and looked back at him, "What?"
Martin looked at the tall grass and leaves around him, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you notice that the density of this fog is a bit too high, it's still the black snow season, the temperature is so low, and the sun didn't come out today, it shouldn't be There is such a thick fog, and there is too much dew on it."
Hearing this, everyone was startled, and then noticed that the tall grass passing by was covered with dewdrops, as if it had been washed by heavy rain, but when they came here yesterday, there was no sign of rain, and the road surface was also wet. Not moist.
Ian frowned and fell silent. Years of hunting experience told him that there must be monsters when things go wrong, but the mission target is nearby, so you can't shrink back because of this. After all, there are more likely guards around the listener to peck the corpse. Those who have been killed by them have been beheaded by them. If they return halfway now, if the listener senses the danger and leaves this place, it will be even more difficult to find it again. The time spent and the distance to search will be an adventure.
He thought for a moment, made up his mind, and said in a low voice, "Everyone, be careful. If you encounter abnormal situations, be ready to evacuate at any time."
Everyone nodded, and their hearts became more vigilant.
Du Dian followed behind the team, and he didn't dare to relax. After all, this is a barren area, and pioneers will be in danger. Although he has the wings to save his life, there is no guarantee that he will not be attacked by powerful monsters before he reacts. kill.
"I smell it." After walking another hundred meters, Luna said suddenly. She sniffed the tip of her nose lightly, raised her finger to a high slope with dense forests in front, and said, "The smell of the wind listener is there. Front."
Ian looked back at her, "Are you sure?"
"Sure!" Luna nodded earnestly, "The smell of the Wind Listener is recorded in the monster atlas, which is very similar to what I smell now, so it should be the Wind Listener!"
Ian nodded and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't expect his luck to be good this time. He found the mission target as soon as he arrived in the barren area. However, what followed was a dangerous and hard fight. With a serious expression on his face, he said to everyone: "Get ready to fight, Ruby, put the food here first, so as not to be inconvenient later."
Ruby nodded, put down the huge burden on his back, and stuffed it into the gap between two nearby big trees to fix it.
"Let's go!" Ian set an example and walked in the lead.
Everyone quickly followed.
Soon, everyone walked out of the woods, and saw a flat land in front of them. In front of the flat land was a huge strange rock, steep and towering, and sunken inward. There was a dark cave at the intersection of the sunken place. Even Du Dian People with a normal sense of smell can also smell the stench wafting from the cave, mixed with the rotten smell of wet mud in the swamp, and another indescribable strange smell, which is creepy and nauseating.
Seeing this cave, Ian's gaze was fixed, and he said in a low voice: "This is here, prepare the torch!"
Ruby immediately took out a few torches from his backpack, poured kerosene and lit them, and handed them to Ian and Martin, the remaining one to himself, and one to Eugene. As for Du Dian and Rosemary, Lu The three of Na have already informed in the previous intercommunication ability that they have night vision ability, so they don't need torches.
Ian also has night vision ability. After picking up the torch, he threw it into the cave.
Whoosh!
The fire rolled in the air, whirring like a wheel, and fell straight into the cave. The fire light printed on the edge of the cave, and I saw an extremely disgusting scene. The wall of this cave is not thick rock and soil, but black like cuticle The substance crawled all over the cave, a bit like dried feces, a bit like a hard shell after molting, and more like the rotting flesh of some animals.
A strong stench emanated from the black paint stuck to the rock wall of the cave. After the fire flew into the cave, it quickly disappeared.
Everyone looked at the cave vigilantly as if they were facing a big enemy, and pulled out their team posture to prepare for the battle.
Time passed bit by bit.
Ten minutes passed, and there was still no movement in the cave.
Ian frowned. Could it be that the depth of the cave was too long, so the listeners inside were not disturbed
He glanced at the surrounding ground, picked up a stone and moved a little closer, and threw it in again. With a bang, the stone hit the rock wall and made a muffled sound.
Ian took two steps back, returned to the team, and stared at the cave warily.
After waiting for another four or five minutes, there was still no response from the cave.
Seeing such a strange appearance, Ian couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.
Martin, Rosemary, Luna, and the others also looked at each other face to face. If they entered the cave rashly, the danger would naturally increase. After all, it was the lair of the Listener, and the latter was naturally more familiar with it, and the environment inside was small. It is not conducive to their team fighting, and the open space outside the cave happens to be able to exert all the strength of the team.
It's just that, with such a big commotion, the listener inside still didn't respond
Unless it's not in the nest.
Everyone thought of this possibility almost unanimously, Ian's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice: "It may not be in the cave, and it is going to go in with me to ambush. Be careful, in case it sneaks in the dark of the cave and prepares to ambush us." .”
Although the possibility of the latter is small, and the IQ of the listener will not be the case, but there is always a possibility, so it is natural to be on guard.
Everyone nodded and followed him slowly towards the cave.
As she approached, Luna tightly covered her nose, her keen sense of smell made her face turn green at this moment, and she felt like she was about to suffocate.
Du Dian stared around and didn't see any heat reaction inside, but the wind listener is a cold-blooded monster, so it's natural that his thermal vision is hard to detect.
Suddenly, he saw two silver scales on the side of a raised stone four or five meters away from the entrance of the cave. The scales were stained with a sticky, silky liquid, exuding a stench.
He was slightly taken aback, there were no such scales on the wind listener, could there be other monsters in this cave
