Chapter 38: The Tongue Demon

The appearance of the pale hand shocked everyone's hearts slightly!

Marven keenly noticed that in fact, the faces of several leaders of the tarantula mercenary group were not very good-looking.

It looks like there are legends on board, and they don't like it.

"Worried that Saruha's treasure has been divided? Not really? Since the tarantula mercenary group dares to hire a master from outside, it should only be happy if it has one more legend. ”

Marven's heart moved slightly.

This pale hand looked like an ordinary human being, but he could vaguely sense the terrifying explosive power contained in his body.

This guy has definitely reached the realm of God's agility, and his killing ability is first-class.

After all, the Pale Hand is a truly legendary class, far from being comparable to a legendary thief or a legendary assassin.

At the beginning, in order to fight against the primeval red dragon earl, the Southern Wizarding Alliance dispatched the Shadow Thief and another legendary professional advanced assassin, who was also a pale hand!

Of course, the two are not the same person - in fact, because of the existence of the [Pale Battle Banner], the Pale Hand is almost the most legendary class on the Fernand continent.

The reason is also very simple, the Pale Banner organization has a complete Pale Hand advancement method, as long as you meet the qualifications to join the organization, and voluntarily join the Pale Banner and obey the conditions of the organization, then you can obtain the Pale Hand Advanced Manual.

He is also from the Wanderer lineage, and compared to the more comprehensive Night Master, the Pale Hand can be described as an expert in killing.

They use longer knives that are more aggressive, and they are more skilled in all kinds of killing techniques.

All in all, this is a group of top-notch assassins who are very difficult to mess with.

……

The emergence of the legendary class. Naturally, there are a lot of variables that add to this adventure.

However, the leader of the tarantula still pretended to be calm and briefly introduced the legend to everyone.

The name is simple, Skye. But just like Marvin's [Kerry]. God knows if it's true or not.

After the Pale Hand joined the group, he didn't say much. It's just that An'an is waiting for the arrangement.

But Marven always felt a little strange.

This guy has a bit of a strange look in his eyes.

Although he has no ill will towards himself, he is always careful in everything.

"Okay, now that everyone is together, let's go."

The tarantula leader spoke, and everyone naturally went on the road excitedly.

The group left the ruined capital on a foal and headed east to the undulating mountain forest.

At the southern corner of the avenue, everyone dismounted and followed the Pathfinder into the hill.

The mountains here are uneven. But most of them are extremely desolate, and there are often monsters infesting them.

However, with such a large group of adventurers, there will be no unsightly monsters popping up.

The group descended into the mountain and went around and around, and finally arrived at a low mountain stream before the moon rose to the sky.

"The entrance to Saruha, right here."

"If it wasn't for an accident, we wouldn't have found out. We held the opening and closing of a door in Saruha, and after a moment our wizard opened it. How about the tarantula people go in first, and the rest of you follow? ”

The head of the tarantula spoke, and everyone naturally had no objections.

……

Under the moonlight. Lilia, the deputy head of the troupe, stood in front of the mountain stream with a quaint scroll in her hand and began to chant in a low voice.

The water of the mountain stream beats against the boulders. Moss spread in the moonlight, and the sorceress's chant was soft.

A moment later. The scroll in her hand suddenly cast a portal light.

The mountain stream immediately stopped flowing, as if time had stood still.

"Quick! We only have three minutes! Those who go in should beware of the enemy. The sorceress urged.

The crowd rushed into the portal.

Marven is not slow. The battle is at the rear.

However, at this moment, a familiar voice sounded in his ears:

"Long time no see, Mr. Marven."

"I'm sorry, my name is Kerry." Marven faced the cloaked man without changing his face.

Gewen under the cloak snorted coldly: "No matter how you disguise it, I can always see through it." ”

"So what? Anyway, is it really okay for you, a Ming party, to walk so openly on the West Coast? ”

Marven joked: "This is the base camp of the dark party, by the way, what happened to your cousin?" ”

Gwen was silent.

Although Marven handed Kanos to him, at that time, Kanos had already completed the transformation and had [Blood Hunger * Thirst], so Gewen had no choice but to escort him back to the Ming Party headquarters and hand him over to the elders to dispose of.

Needless to say, the results are true. Whether it is the open party or the dark party, the fate of the traitor is very tragic.

……

"You have to be careful." Marven said suddenly.

Gwen was slightly stunned.

"You're looking for the bearer of the Holy Blood, aren't you?" Taking advantage of the commotion of everyone, Marven said in a low voice: "Grand Duke William is really relieved to let you come to the West Coast alone." ”

"I'm not alone......" Before Gewen finished speaking, he immediately reacted and was actually tricked by Marven.

It's just that what Marven said was enough to shock him.

"How do you know so much?" Gwen was shocked.

Marven smiled, he was originally nonsense, but Gewen was so lightly tricked out by himself.

This guy is indeed here for the Holy Blood.

The competition between the Bright Party and the Dark Party of the Blood Clan is really tragic enough.

However, after Marven shook off the burden, he ignored him and went directly into the portal.

Gwen frowned and followed.

One after another, most of the people have already entered the portal. The sorceress looked at the remaining two with a look of helplessness.

Skye the Pale Hand, and the leader of the tarantula.

"Mr. Skye, I hope you will do as you promised before, and that there will be no negative impact on our expedition."

"After all, we have always respected the Pale Battle Banner. The annual money is not less paid. ”

Reimer, the leader of the tarantula mercenary group, said cautiously.

He knew how terrible the Pale Hand was. This time he came to the door, it was a disaster!

It would have been the perfect expedition plan. How can he not be upset?

The Pale Hand sneered, "Are you worried that I'm greedy for your loot? It's ridiculous. I'm here to kill people. I'm not interested in anything from Saruhari. ”

"If you don't get in my way, maybe I'll help you."

With that, he snorted and strode in.

The tarantula leader and the sorceress glanced at each other, and the latter said softly and comfortingly, "It's okay, although the person with the pale battle banner is domineering, he is still reasonable. ”

Reimer smiled bitterly: "I hope ...... So be it. ”

With that, the two of them took the scroll and walked in together.

A few minutes later. A blood-colored bat swoops down from the sky!

She flew back and forth over the mountain stream for a while, and finally landed on a rock and slowly turned into a human form!

It was a naked woman, and with a wave of her hand, a faint red veil appeared on her body.

However, a barrier can't block the view of others, but she doesn't seem to care.

"It's a step too late, huh? How can we have the breath of our own people? ”

"Forget it, just wait here, I don't believe it. They can stay in the ruins for too long. ”

"I hope I don't die in the ruins."

Stamford yawned, "Otherwise, it would be too boring." ”

……

Among the ruins, it was pitch black.

The people of the tarantula had explored this place before, so they had a lot of experience in the first part of the road.

No ignition!

No lighting fixtures are allowed.

This is the tarantula's requirement for all external masters.

The stone wall can only be touched with your hands. Go ahead.

Because in this place, once a light source appears, it can trigger a small area of landslides.

There must be a photosensitive mechanism around here. It's a pity that it's too clever for the most powerful thieves in tarantulas to be excluded. As for the newcomer, the Pale Hand Skye. Although he is a legendary thief, he specializes in killing. Instead of eliminating traps and traps.

If it's an authentic [Trap Master], there is hope to solve this problem.

"Everyone try to be as soft as possible, and those with low-light vision will go first. It's much better to get out of this way. ”

Reimer's voice sounded in the darkness, and because of the previous explanation, everyone was still calm, and they walked forward one after another caressing the smooth stone wall.

But this qiē is purely superfluous for Marven.

The night walker's vision allowed him to see clearly.

It's not a long tunnel, and there's a huge bend at the end of the tunnel. There, he saw a dark shadow.

Combined with the route in his memory, Marven immediately came to a conclusion:

"It turns out that the tarantula people found the back door!"

"I mean, why don't you know this road well?"

"Oops, if it's the back door, then the first monster you'll face is probably those things!"

Marven's face was slightly gloomy. If the tarantula people are not prepared and encounter those monsters directly, I am afraid that they will suffer a big loss!

But Marven must hide his strength.

The pale hand in the team unnerved him, and he was still acting with his eyes wide open despite his obvious dark vision.

Because he could feel that there was a pair of eyes, always sweeping over himself and Gervin behind him.

The other person may have low-light vision or infrared vision.

It is necessary to keep a low profile and show weakness to the enemy.

……

The group walked forward for a while, and when they saw that they were about to reach the bend, the [Pathfinder] who was walking in the front seemed to have touched the mark he had carved before, and said to Reimer:

"That's pretty much it. After crossing this line, you can light the torch. ”

Reimer nodded, urging the group forward.

In a short time, everyone crossed the line.

Fires began to flicker through the dark caverns, and there were all sorts of strange lighting fixtures.

On the West Coast, alchemy items are smuggled very much, and wizards' works can be auctioned at free bidding here, so many wealthy adventurers have a lot of good things in their hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the last time we explored the path, this was almost here."

Reimer held his two-handed sword in his hand and showed a solemn expression: "We may encounter a lot of monsters next. Be vigilant! ”

Everyone nodded and took out their weapons.

The people of the tarantula spontaneously formed a formation. The external masters are more suitable for playing alone and wandering on the periphery of the formation.

They went the way forward. After all, adventurers are greedy.

Only Marven and Gewen have been hanging at the end of the formation.

"Why did you go so far behind?" Marven asked the man in the cloak.

The latter's answer made Marven speechless: "Because you go behind." ”

"Follow you, luck shouldn't be too bad."

While the two were talking, the person in front had already come to the corner.

Marven's eyes narrowed slightly.

In an instant, a strange sizzling sound erupted in the tunnel, and several greasy tongues stretched out from the dark stone wall, slamming away the first few pathfinders!

Under the horrified gaze of everyone. The stone walls on both sides slowly cracked, turning into large mouths of blood!

"Oh my God!"

"What is this?"

"Help me!"

All of a sudden, the shouts shook the sky.

"Cut off these tongues!" Reimer immediately made a decision and commanded loudly.

He was a good man, taking the lead, cutting off a thick tongue with a single sword and saving a pathfinder.

However, the others were not so lucky, and they were swept into the bloody mouths in front of everyone. Chewed into pieces of meat!

Blood was flying, bones were splattered all over the ground!

Rao is Marven saw this scene, and he couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp!

He'd only heard that there was an ambush of tongue demons at Saruha's back door, but he hadn't seen their power with his own eyes!

"It's an evil spirit!"

The sorceress Lilia exclaimed, "How can there be evil spirits in Saruhari? ”

Chaos in between. Everyone kept retreating, and at this moment, there was a "Stop!" It suddenly alarmed everyone.

Marven stood at the end. Burst out.

"What are you doing?"

"A man is hiding in the back, and now he shouts to stop. Hero? ”

The rest of the people were immediately very dissatisfied with Marven's expression.

Marven pointed to the yellow line on the side and said lightly: "If you retreat, it will be a landslide." ”

Everyone changes color in unison!

They still have torches in their hands!

As Marvin said. If you cross the yellow line, the trap in the tunnel will be triggered. When the time comes, what they will face will not be as simple as the Tongue Demon, and a large-scale landslide will be enough to bury so many people!

All of a sudden, everyone's gaze towards Marven became much more complicated.

Is this guy really momentarily smart, or has he always been calm?

It's rare to be able to notice this in such a chaotic process.

The crowd shrank back as far as they could. But the Tongue Demon wouldn't let them go.

The thick tongues, wrapped in pale yellow slime, crackled through the stone walls and killed the people!

"What are we going to do!"

"Commander?"

The crowd exclaimed. They didn't expect that the Tongue Demon would still be able to move.

"You can't use range magic here, the tunnel is too fragile, and the gathering and release of arcane energy may lead to collapse!"

The sorceress Lilia's face was also ugly.

Reimer stood at the forefront, looked at the menacing tongue demon, gritted his teeth and said, "Kill them!" ”

However, at this moment, a lazy voice sounded:

"Forget it, since I ask you for help, I'll help you once."

Pale Hands.

He was originally very lazy and mixed in the middle of the group, and he didn't mean to make a move at all.

It's just that he was disappointed that before he reached the open area, the tarantula group was forced to this point!

But then again, the Tongue Demon is indeed a very difficult type of evil spirit to deal with, second only to the Brain Eater!

Skye's figure suddenly disappeared in place!

"Kill!"

A simple killing word.

A glimpse of an aurora began to crisscross the tunnel.

Many people couldn't even see the knife in his hand clearly.

Marven can barely keep up with the rhythm of the other party, but the killing efficiency of the Pale Hand makes Marven a little embarrassed!

He thought to himself that it would not be difficult to deal with the Tongue Demon, after all, there was a peerless good knife plus No. 4 holy water.

But as calm as Skye is, he can't.

He simply shuttled back and forth, constantly jumping on the shadow plane. Every time you jump, you forcibly pass through the body of a tongue demon!

The knife in his hand is slightly longer. But it's thin, and the figure flashes. The tongue just hit the ground.

Whoosh!

In just a few dozen breaths, more than twenty tongue demons hidden behind the stone wall were killed by him alone!

That's the strength of the legend.

Marven took a deep breath. I can do it myself, but it's definitely not as fast as the other party.

Although they are both agile gods, the Pale Hand must have other specialties or skills to increase speed, Marven thinks that he is currently facing the other party, and I am afraid that he will not be able to take ten moves!

Even if you incarnate as an Anzula Violent Bear, the other party can calmly kill yourself!

The Pale Hand was the most lethal of the Assassins, and even the armor of the Ancient Red Dragon could be easily torn apart. Not to mention an astral creature.

"If you can't beat it, what about escaping?"

Marven had a dark contrast in his heart.

The conclusion was quite comforting to him, and the many skills of the Night Walker could still allow him to escape.

The Pale Hand pursues the ultimate killing ability, and has given up a lot of tracking methods, so he can't beat it himself, so it should be possible to escape.

Thinking of this, he was a little relieved.

……

"Let's go."

In the empty tunnel, the tongue on the ground was still wriggling.

Skye turned a blind eye. He even stepped on a beating tongue and said impatiently, "Reimer, is that clear?" ”

Reimer hurriedly nodded.

It's just that there is a hint of gloom in his heart.

I didn't expect Saruha to be so terrifying, the tarantula group had just entered. That's how difficult it is!

So what will you encounter next?

This Pale Hand Lord won't really help all the way to the end.

Come to think of it. He had a headache, and he waved his hand: "Let's move on!" ”

……

A few pathfinders, you look at me, I look at you. But he didn't dare to go any further.

The same goes for external adventurers.

The sudden Tongue Demon just now frightened them a lot, and at least three people were eaten alive by the Tongue Demon. They don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Reimer frowned slightly, no one dared to leave!

At the moment, he was ruthless:

"Who's going to find the way?"

"Pathfinder, you can have the right to pick the loot with the highest priority. At the same time, what you find for yourselves, is directly yours! ”

Under such a heavy reward, several thieves in the tarantula team are ready to move.

But the flesh and blood of their companions were beside them, and they hesitated for a moment, and they all hesitated.

Lei Mo was so angry that he almost wanted to scold his mother.

The Tarantula Mercenary Regiment is also famous in the Ruins City, and they have taken countless adventures, but they have never encountered such a situation!

As soon as he came in, he lost his troops and lost his generals, and everyone seemed to have a shadow in their hearts!

After all, the Tongue Demon is a creature that everyone is very unfamiliar with!

No one dares to explore the way, and it is normal.

But at this moment, a light voice sounded at the end of the line:

"I'll do it."

Under the slightly surprised gaze of everyone, Marven walked all the way and directly arrived at the front of the team.

His gaze looked directly at Reimer: "What I found, directly belongs to me?" ”

Reimer saw a life-saving straw, where would he disagree, and nodded desperately at the moment.

Marven smiled secretly in his heart, after passing the level of the tongue demon, it seems that there is a small treasure trove behind him.

This time, I was lucky.

Who knew that at this time, another voice also remembered:

"I'll be with Mr. Kerry."

The cloaked man, Gwen, followed closely.

Marven's face suddenly sank.

This kid is also very cunning!

"After all, one person is not safe, and two people can take care of it."

Gewen said calmly: "In order to avoid the recurrence of what happened just now, the two of us and the large army can keep a certain distance. ”

Reimer almost applauded for Gwen!

Where did he find such a pathfinder?

At that moment, he promised: "When I go back, the two of you will be doubled!" ”

Marven didn't say much, and immediately passed directly through the tongue demon area and walked to the depths of the tunnel.

The vampire Gwen is naturally in hot pursuit.

In the crowd, Skye the Pale Hand stared at Gewen's back for a long time, revealing a sneer.

…… (To be continued......)
