Chapter 21: The Chain Trap

The deep and remote tunnels seemed endless, and everyone had walked for almost an hour, but they still didn't encounter anything. Whether it was the enemy they had expected, or something else. All in all, there is nothing here, nothing but silence.

"How long are we going to go?"

The snake man captain twisted his body, his four arms clenched into his sword, and glared angrily ahead. Sensing the gaze of the serpent captain, Hovrin in front of him turned around and glared at him with a gloomy gaze -- as a natural spy and thief, Hovrin naturally took on the task of finding the way and searching.

"How do I know, this trace shows those damn guys who drove the caravan underground lizards here, you know those big fat worms can go days and nights without eating or drinking, not to mention the traces that were left several days ago, who knows where they will go? Maybe these guys will run into the abyss and make a hole! ”

Elise walked in the middle of the line, frowning slightly, a little worried about the situation in front of her. This patrol is indeed the most elite unit in Black Onyx Stone City. But because of this, the relationship between the personnel of the patrol is also very tense, as if now -- the snake people are eager to fight the imaginary enemy, and Hovrin has no interest in sending them to death, and they are trying to avoid a pointless fight as much as possible. Judging by that Houfflin's expression, if the snake captain dared to yell and reveal their location, maybe he couldn't help but strangle the other party. Half-vampires, on the other hand, are just around them, and their only goal is to keep them safe. It is conceivable that if something goes wrong, these half-vampires will definitely take themselves with them as soon as possible.

In Elise's opinion, the best thing to do was to send a patrol from each of the three races, rather than acting together like this, she could keenly feel the smell of gunpowder in the team, and quickly revealed hidden dangers that she did not want to see.

"Let's hope so, you guys with hooves better not be lazy! Even if you're lazy, it's best not to let me know! ”

"What do you say? You scaly, cold-blooded bastard..............."

"I said ..............."

Seeing that the two sides were about to turn from a verbal quarrel to a full-scale conflict, Elise also had to stand up, but before she could finish her words, a change suddenly appeared.

With a "whew", I saw that the floor under the feet of a snake man suddenly bounced up like a bellows. The hapless fellow flew out like a cannonball, and the sudden sight surprised everyone, and they didn't even know what was happening when they saw their companion fly past them with the sound of the howling wind.

But the most unclear thing about the situation was the unlucky guy himself, who instinctively screamed as he was bounced away, and raised his hands high in the air to try to grab something. But this qiē was all in vain, because in the next moment, he hit the stone wall next to him so hard, and before he could react, a dark shadow covered his vision.

"Boom!!"

The heavy stone slabs rose slowly, carrying dripping blood and scattered pieces of flesh. Everyone stared blankly -- just a few seconds before the snake man had been thrown against the wall, then crushed into a pile of debris by the rocks that whizzed down from above. The only thing he had left now was the bright red scraps of flesh and the white scraps of bones.

“……………”

For a moment, the entire tunnel fell into a deathly silence, until the serpent captain angrily walked up to Hoflin and slapped him hard.

"Pathfinding?"

He roared angrily, his long tongue sticking out of his mouth in a furious and uneasy way, making a "hissing" sound.

"That's what the you're pathfinding? Can you hoofed freaks get a little bit of a snack and don't make things so bad!? ”

"Hey! What does this have to do with us, you dead snake!! ”

Houfflin jumped to his feet, his hands just pressed and flipped around his waist, and the next moment two daggers appeared in his hands.

"We didn't see anything here, we didn't show anything, and you walked through here, nothing! Can we be blamed for that? ”

"So can you explain why my team members are now a bunch of Nolde roast minced meat?!"

The serpent captain's sword was raised high, and his eyes widened as he wished to slice the damn fool in front of him to pieces in the next moment. In the face of this imminent threat, the Houfflin shrugged his shoulders disdainfully.

"How do I know that maybe he's out of luck?"

The snake man captain didn't speak, because the next moment his sword was swung in a staggered way. But the glittering cold light was not able to tear through the Houfflin in front of him. Because at the moment when the sword light shone, his body quickly turned into a whole black mist, twisted backwards to avoid the opponent's attack, and then circled and reorganized like a whirlwind, turning into a physical form again.

"Hey, I advise you not to force me to do it, snakehead, or I'll definitely rip off your skin to make a leather bag!"

"Just you shit?!"

"Don't make any noise!"

Seeing that things were getting more and more out of control, Elise had to interrupt them with a shout. After making sure that their attention was already on herself, she sighed imperceptibly and spoke.

"This trap is magical."

"Magic?"

Hearing this, both the snake man and Hovrin stared at Elise in disbelief with wide eyes in surprise. It's no wonder they're so surprised, in everyone's understanding, traps are only moved through guò mechanisms. That's why those Houfflins will explore the way so carefully, although there are magic traps on the surface, but they all use magic runes to compress the power, to put it bluntly, they condense a magic and only move after waiting for someone to step on it.

This is also the reason why Hovrin is very suitable to be a thief, they are a hybrid of human and demon, they are quite sensitive to magic, and they are agile, they can find their way as a thief, no matter what kind of mechanism, or there is a magic array hidden, they can feel it.

But this time, it was a hell of a thing, and everyone saw that the snake man was stoned to death after being bounced off, which means that it was a trap mechanism, but the Hovrin didn't have a sign of a move, and they didn't notice the fluctuation of magical energy.

So how could Elise say that it was magical?

In fact, for Elise, this is also a coincidence. The bloodsucking species itself is much higher than other races, and Elise is the perfect body among them, so there is no need to mention the body essence. The hapless snake man was walking not far in front of her, so Elise had a full view of the situation when the snake man was catapulted away. It was only a few seconds to others, but to Elise's eyes, it was like slow motion. Because of this, she could clearly see that the bright red patterns on the otherwise dim surface of the stone slab shone faintly as the floor bounced the snake guards away. And when the slate was restored to its original form, the light was gone.

"But we really didn't feel the fluctuations of magic!"

The Hovlins also realized the severity of the matter, and their faces turned pale. It's no wonder that they have never heard of this trap and don't even know what it is! Not to mention them, in fact, even Elise herself was completely unaware of the magic fluctuations, if it weren't for the tips of her eyes, I'm afraid she would have ignored the past long ago.

"I don't think there's something quite right about this place."

Thinking of this, Elise spoke again, and the strange feeling when she walked in before resurfaced in her heart, I don't know why, after walking here, Elise vaguely felt as if someone was watching her. This made her feel very uncomfortable, and Elise had originally felt that there was a ghost, but now that she saw this scene, she decided to be careful.

"I think we'd better get out and see how it goes."

"This ..............."

"Anyway, the safety of the eldest lady is important."

Seeing the other frowning, a half-vampire was visibly upset, and he quickly stepped back and gestured to Elise with a gesture of please.

"Miss, for the sake of safety, we still ........."

However, before the half-vampire could finish speaking, he heard a bang, and the stone wall behind the half-vampire rushed out with a roar, slamming into the body of the half-vampire.

Although it is said that the vampire body is better than the average person, there is no sign of this trap. The poor fellow seemed to have been hit by a speeding truck, and immediately flew to the other side. However, he reacted quickly after all, and with a spin in the air, he took advantage of the situation to dodge.

But at the moment when the half-vampire was about to dodge, he only heard the sound of metal grinding in the darkness, and the next moment, several metal chains burst out of thin air, like the open mouth of a poisonous snake, and bit the limbs of the half-vampire, accompanied by a series of sounds of "kalalala", and the next moment the half-vampire was pulled by the wall like this, and before the guy could do anything more, he saw the stone wall crashing hard.

"Boom!!"

A dull loud sound echoed in the dark tunnels, as if a heavy hammer had struck the hearts of everyone. Everyone looked pale at the stone wall that blocked their way, and as for the poor worm, the vampire species had a very strong ability to recover, but it was also finished if it was crushed into slag.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but feel furious in their hearts. Even the way back has been blocked, what now?

Could it be that there is really only a way to go down?
