Chapter 207: The Monster of the Dragon

In the dim cavern, the smell of rancid came from it.

What's going on?

Holding his torch aloof, Barney at the front frowned, looking at the empty passage in confusion.

It's been five days since they entered the Blackstone Abyss.

But to everyone's surprise, they didn't encounter the shadow of the enemy, no, it can even be said that the existence that can be called an enemy has not appeared, this place is not even like before in the tunnel, there are goblins and some underground creatures to trouble them, after they enter the black stone abyss, everything is far away from them, walking in this silent passage, even giving those mercenaries an illusion, as if they are the only living beings in this world, except for them, this place is empty.

"Barney, would you like to take a break?"

The half-elf girl hesitantly followed Barney's side and whispered a proposal, glancing back at the mercenary not far behind her.

"Everybody............ Everyone was a little uneasy. ”

"I know it."

Barney was visibly upset at the half-elf girl's words, but he quickly sighed.

"Sorry, I just .................."

"I know, but going on like this isn't the solution, Barney. This is indeed the abyss of black stone, and we are not lost, but why do we see nothing? ”

The half-elf girl looked around, and the elf's good vision allowed her to easily break through the darkness and see things that others couldn't. It's the same now, in the eyes of the half-elf girl, this passage is empty, there is nothing, only some broken sculptures and bones that have long since been dusted, but these things are not the purpose of their visit, it has been five days since they entered the underground passage, except for the underground dwellers they met at the beginning, there is nothing here, dead and silent like a cemetery.

Of course, Barney was not stupid enough to really think that there was nothing here, before entering the Blackstone Abyss, he had sent someone to inquire about the news here, it was obvious that this was a very, very dangerous place, those legends, the warnings of the people showed this, and the church itself was too dangerous for them to come. In addition, Rod attaches great importance to this place, although he hates that man quite a lot, Barney has to admit that Rode's strength is still very strong. Even a powerful man like him was hesitant about this mission, so he was sure that there was definitely something dangerous about this commission.

But where exactly is the danger?

For now, at least, Barney didn't see the slightest sign of danger, but it made him nervous even more. This kind of panic felt very bad, he originally thought that the danger here was just more monsters, or more dangerous, so he spent a lot of effort to buy a bunch of flame scrolls, in order to deal with the monsters that might appear here. But right now, there are no monsters here that are enough for them to deal with, so what's the point?

The half-elf girl didn't know what to do, she keenly felt the uneasiness of the group of mercenaries behind her, but she didn't have any way, now everyone was nervous and confused, and some even wondered if they were going the wrong way, although there was only one way from the underground passage to here, but if there were no monsters or something like that, it would be difficult to say.

"Hey, Captain!"

And just then, a rough voice came from behind.

"How long will it take!"

Hearing this, Barney frowned and fell silent. Of course, he was also aware of the dissatisfaction of his subordinates, and at first, these mercenaries were indeed full of enthusiasm under his encouragement. But now, after so many days of trekking, that momentum has long since been exhausted. Even those well-trained old mercenaries will probably be a little unbearable in this situation, not to mention these guys who are not very good in the first place——— frankly, it is a miracle that they have been able to endure until now and have not rebelled. ..., "Huh? What does it taste like? ”

And at this moment, a sweet smell suddenly appeared.

The mercenaries looked at each other curiously, then twitched their noses, and then looked ahead.

"It smells so good............ Is there anything up front? ”

"Quick, go over and have a look!"

Although for the average mercenary, encountering unexpected situations during the mission is their least favorite thing. But for these mercenaries now, they would rather encounter some unexpected situation to pass the lonely and almost painful journey. And Barney was also holding the torch in one hand at the moment, holding the hilt of the sword on the other, and walked forward cautiously.

After turning the passage, soon the crowd saw a wide space.

They were able to see everything here without the need for torches, not because these mercenaries had the same night vision as elves, but because of the "light source".

In a wide cavity six or seven meters above sea level, a large orchard grows, and they shake the fresh green leaves, and the bright red fruits can be seen inside. The overflowing aroma comes to the nostrils, making people's saliva water. Underneath them, the glowing gardens form a beautiful landscape that brings a touch of splendor to the otherwise dark cavern.

What is this? How did it end up here?

Barney looked at the strange trees in disbelief, this was unscientific, there was no water here, there was no sun, there was no way there were fruit trees growing here. But before he could figure out what was going on, some of the mercenaries had already run under the tree and picked the fruit.

"Whew, this smells so good............"

The fruit has a bright red color and looks like a banana, but it is more wide. After peeling off the skin, the sweet and sour taste comes to the nose, and people can't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"I can't stand it anymore, let me taste it first!"

Soon, a mercenary swallowed the bright red fruit in one gulp, and it was only at this time that Barney was suddenly stunned and immediately opened his mouth to stop it.

"Wait! Don't eat it, this stuff is weird! ”

"Strange? Where is it strange? ”

Some of the mercenaries stopped Barney's stop, they already felt that something didn't seem right here, and now they were even more hesitant. But most people took Barney's command as a deaf ear, and still feasted on it, and the sweet and sour flavor became stronger and stronger, and it was impossible for anyone who smelled it to ignore its presence. Soon, some of them couldn't hold on and joined the ranks of the mercenaries, but there were still a few people who lingered and watched them cautiously.

"What do you think?"

Barney pressed his forehead and asked the half-elf girl.

"I............ I don't know what to do, Barney. ”

The half-elf girl shook her head.

"I find these things weird............ Anyway, I always feel like they don't look like plants..............."

"Forget it."

Barney wasn't in the mood to listen any longer, so he waved his hand and interrupted the half-elf girl.

"Search around, this is already the deepest part, I don't believe there is anything here, there must be something we have overlooked."

"Okay, Barney, I'm ....................."

"Ahh!!h

Before they could finish their sentences, they were interrupted by a terrible scream, which stunned Barney and the half-elf girl, and then they immediately turned their heads to look at the group, and then they saw a scene that the two of them could not believe.

The mercenaries who were still tasting the fruit just now all fell to the ground in pain at the moment, they rolled desperately, grabbed the skin on their bodies, and let out one scream after another. And above their heads, the red fruits that originally produced on those "fruit trees" were now actively peeled, revealing the "flesh" inside, and after those "flesh" fell from the trees, they immediately crawled towards the mercenaries and drilled into their bodies along their mouths and ears! ..., what the hell is this!?

The strange scene in front of them left the others stunned, but Barney was the first to react.

"Everyone prepare the Flame Scrolls at once and burn them!!"

As he spoke, he took out the scroll and opened it, and soon a flame flew out of it and burned towards the fruit trees. Hearing Barney's words, the other mercenaries who were originally stunned quickly made the same move, and soon, the flames spread along the "fruit tree", and those "flesh" seemed to sense who their enemy was, and they turned around sharply and crawled towards Barney and the others with a completely unpredictable speed. Soon, two mercenaries crawled on top of them because they didn't notice the bugs under their feet, and then the mercenaries fell to the ground screaming, and soon the bugs got through their mouths, and then their sides quickly began to twist and deform.

"Quick, retreat! It's now!! Come on! ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Barney gave the order, and he stepped back as he opened a scroll of a wall of fire blocking the way of the bugs. The half-elf girl followed closely beside him, looking at the others with a panicked expression.

"Barney, watch around, there's a lot of them!"

"Let's get out of here and go to the passage, where we can stop these things completely by just raising the wall of fire!"

Now, Barney finally understood why Rhodes had bought so many flame scrolls for Lu, but he couldn't do anything now. He could only take the half-elf girl and a few other remaining mercenaries to the entrance of the passage as fast as he could, trying to get out of here.

The earth began to shake.

Bulges appeared on the ground, and they used the cover of the soil to cross the wall of fire and rush towards the crowd. Then, a tentacle burst out of the ground, wrapped around the half-elf girl's legs, and pulled her to the ground.

"Ahh

Hearing the voice of the half-elf girl, Barney hurriedly turned his head, and at this time, dozens of tentacles were still entangled and suspended in the air.

"Barney, save me, save me!! Help me!! ”

The half-elf girl tried hard to break free of these tentacles, but it didn't succeed, on the contrary, those tentacles became more and more fierce because she had to resist, only a few soft sounds, the clothes on the half-elf girl's body were torn, revealing the snow-white and delicate skin inside, and the sticky tentacles slowly extended the girl's limbs to climb forward, they gently caressed the girl's body, exuding a dizzying aura.

But Barney hesitated for a moment after seeing the scene in front of him, and then ran towards the entrance of the passage without looking back.

"Barney, help me............ Help me.................."

The half-elf girl's consciousness began to blur, and she struggled to reach forward, and at this moment, two thick tentacles slowly climbed up along the half-elf girl's legs and burrowed into the bottom of her skirt. At the same time, the girl suddenly struggled violently.

"Don't, don't!! Stop it!! Stop, ahh ”

The girl's pleading turned into a scream after the most slump, and in her body, two thick marks were clearly visible, they bulged from the girl's lower abdomen, writhing and burrowing towards the slur, while the half-elf girl passively beat with the depth of the tentacles, her body went up and down in the air, and the mouth blocked by the tentacles made a muffled snort. The girl's eyes rolled, her slender body trembled violently, and she could faintly hear the sound of sticky water and the impact of flesh.

"Hmm............ Hmm.................. Hmmm.................."

Soon, the tentacles' movements became more and more intense, and the body of the half-elf girl began to writhe like a puppet that had been broken in a storm. …,“————！！ ”

With the scorching explosion in her body, the girl's eyes widened in surprise, her body arched upward, tense and straight, her eyes rolled white, her mouth wide open, but she could only make the sound of swallowing. And with the rapid retreat of the tentacles, the turbidity mixed with white liquid sprayed out from between the girl's legs, and the girl at this moment was hanging upside down on the tentacles like a rag, silver silk threads flowed from her mouth, and the clothes that originally wrapped her body had been completely torn and fallen off at this moment, revealing the snow-white body inside.

The earth is rising.

A large lump of flesh emerged from it, and it waved its tentacles, slowly merging the girl into its body. And the tentacles that wrapped around the girl's body soon rushed into her body again..................

"Damn!! Damn it! What would be like this!! ”

Barney, who ran into the passageway, released the wall of fire without looking back, gritting his teeth and his mind going blank.

How can this be? For what? What is this for? What the hell is that?!

But it's useless to think about it now, get out of here now, I want to live, as long as I can live...............

An icy touch appeared on Barney's neck.

Is it water?

The boy looked at Lu Shang with some confusion, and then, his eyes widened in horror.

At the same moment, the blood-red flesh that led to the top surged down like a raging wave, enveloping Barney completely.
