Chapter 498: The Lost Sense of Smell
The Misty Forest is very dangerous, last time the Doomsday Mercenary Group and the Qingfeng Mercenary Group formed a group, and the strength was very strong, but there was still a lot of loss in the Misty Forest, so it passed through the forest and arrived at the Yaksha Valley.
From a distance, the Misty Forest is very quiet, like a calm lake, with no wind or waves, and a clear sky. The smell of desolation and antiquity is particularly evident in this forest. This time, the Doomsday Mercenary Group has made a lot of preliminary preparations for walking through the Misty Forest, but the only fortunate thing is that this time they are completely clear about the path through the Misty Forest, and they will not be as blind as last time. This is also why the Doomsday Mercenary Group dared to follow the Aomine Mercenary Group through this misty forest to reach the Yaksha Valley alone in the face of heavy losses.
Yan chased and quickly rushed back, but his face was a little unsightly.
"What did you find?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask when he saw Yan's face.
"There is nothing unusual between the Misty Forest and the Valley of Weeping Blood, but there is no trace of the Aomine Mercenary Group and other mercenary groups passing by. Not even a trace of breath!" Yan Chai's face was very ugly.
"What?" Li Mo's face also changed, they were tracking the Qingfeng Mercenary Group, but when they came here, they found that there was no trace of them, which was definitely not good news.
"There are only two possibilities, either we ran in front of them, or they also have anti-tracking masters, erasing all the traces of their passing, and I can't see Ni Duan, but when they were in the Desperate River Valley, their traces can still be found, but they can't be found here, which is unreasonable. Yan chased and said a little depressed.
Li Mo looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and asked, "What do you think?"
"Could it be that they also encountered the wave of weeping blood demon insects in the Weeping Blood Valley, and they were all unlucky to be wiped out in this Weeping Blood Valley?" someone speculated.
"Maybe that cry for help and the smell of blood we smelled before was left behind by their people......"
"Brother Yan, can you smell any peculiar smell now?" While everyone was discussing and speculating, the figure of Zhan Wuxian suddenly fell to Yan's pursuit, and asked lightly.
"What smell?" Yan Chase couldn't help but sniff and said with some surprise: "No!"
"Commander, do you smell any peculiar smell?" Zhan Wuxian turned his head to Li Mo and asked.
"I didn't even smell the pursuit......" Li Mo's voice changed suddenly, and he looked at Yan Chase suspiciously, and asked, "You really didn't smell any peculiar smell?"
Yan Chase sniffed again, shook his head suddenly, and said in amazement: "I really didn't smell any peculiar smell!"
"Do you smell the fragrance?" asked Li Mo, turning his head to the crowd. Everyone immediately sniffed intently.
"Yes, it's scented, it's very light, but it can make people feel refreshed, it can't be that there is an elixir around here!" someone immediately whispered.
"There's something wrong with your sense of smell, and it looks like someone has done something specifically to you, so along the way, you've had a problem with your talent. Zhan Wusheng suddenly said with a solemn expression, and then floated down on the boulder where he was hiding just now, and took down a white nine-petal lotus.
"Sister Yalan, this flower is for you!" Zhan Wuming sent the lotus flower that exuded bursts of fragrance directly to Li Yalan's face, which immediately made everyone stunned, and some people glared at Zhan Wuxuan fiercely, meaning like what do you mean by this, kid, you are going to rob a woman with your brother......
Li Yalan was also slightly stunned, she didn't expect Zhan Wufang to give her such a beautiful lotus flower in public, but it seemed to be a little too much. Of course, her eyesight naturally knew that this lotus flower was a nine-leaf Xuanlian, a precious treasure medicine, but she did not refuse.
Yan Chai's face became a little pale at this time, this Nine Leaf Xuanlian was so close to them, such a special fragrance, he actually didn't smell it, it can be said that his sense of smell was out of order and he was completely unaware, this was definitely an unexpected blow to him.
"How can this be!" Yan Chai's face was very ugly.
"Let's think about it carefully, is there anything suspicious happening along the way?" Li Mo's face was pale, Yan's pursuit was their living map, and it could also be said that they were the most important role in pursuing the Qingfeng Mercenary Group, and it was precisely because of Yan's pursuit that he was sure that he could still be confident that he could catch up with the Qingfeng Mercenary Group even if he set off one day late. At this time, if you think about it carefully, when the weeping blood demon insect tide appeared, it was not that Zhan Wuming had a more sensitive perception ability than Yan Chasing, but because Yan Chase's perception talent was unknowingly wasted. This is definitely a huge blow to the Doomsday Mercenary Group.
At this time, almost all of them have no jealousy of fighting for their lives, they know very well that Yan's talent for pursuit has been cleared, for the Doomsday Mercenary Group, what kind of consequences does that mean, almost ruining their eyes and ears, there are only thirty people on their side, and the Qingfeng Mercenary Group and several other mercenary groups combined, there are more than three hundred people, ten times their own, once they follow from a distance because they do not have the talent of Yan's pursuit, but approach and let the other party find out the existence of others and others, then, waiting for their own, there is only the end of being destroyed directly。 No one cares about attacking some weak opponents in the wasteland, and many mercenary groups disappear one by one.
Everyone who enters the wasteland represents wealth, they explore in the wasteland, hunt for treasures, more or less, they will have some valuable belongings, so often many weak mercenary groups will also become the target of hunting by other mercenary groups. If the Doomsday Mercenary Group had been in the Yaksha Valley before, it might have been somewhat famous and powerful in the Dream Moon City, but since the Yaksha Valley, everything has changed, and if it can't recruit enough masters again, the Doomsday Mercenary Group will really come to an end, and it will be reduced to a third- or fourth-rate weak group.
"How did you find out that Yan Pursuit's sense of smell was out of order?" Brother Xiong's face was gloomy as he looked at Zhan Wudi, and his tone was a little unkind.
Zhan Wuxian was stunned, but he didn't expect Brother Xiong to question him first. But he was not annoyed, and said lightly: "Because I believe that Brother Yan will not lie, he said that he did not find the trace of the Qingfeng Mercenary Group, then it must not be found, but I know that the trace of the Qingfeng Mercenary Group must exist, then, the only possibility is that Brother Yan can't find it, with his talent, if he can't find those clues, if he doesn't lie, then there is only one possibility, his talent is abnormal!"
"So you found their traces?" Li Mo couldn't help but ask.
Zhan Wuxing nodded, and said with a wry smile: "I think our opponent is very familiar with our abilities and whereabouts, so all of this is a very targeted arrangement of our actions." ”
"What do you mean?" Brother Xiong's face changed suddenly, and he asked in surprise.
"What do I mean, I think there should be someone among us who knows better than me, along the way, Yan Chases eats and sleeps with everyone, but all of us are fine, only Yan Chases has a problem, then, something must have happened to Yan Chases that is different from us. Zhan Wu's tone suddenly turned cold, and his gaze swept over everyone.
Everyone suddenly became vigilant, and the meaning of the words of the battle was obvious, and there were internal thieves in the Doomsday Mercenary Group. Everyone thought about it, and immediately understood that what Zhan Wufang said was not invincible, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a spy inside, then how could Yan's pursuit be abolished, and it was so silent and unconscious. Only if his own people attack, then Yan's pursuit will be defenseless.
"Along the way, Yan chased after you and spent the most time with you, if there is really anything wrong, I'm afraid that you won't be able to get out of it!" Brother Xiong's voice became a little gloomy.
"You can be so suspicious, because all of us are suspicious of that person, of course, except for the head of the regiment, Yan Chase has spent a lot of time with me, but he has never been out of everyone's sight, I have not given Yan Chase anything to eat, nor have I given Yan Chase anything to drink, let alone smelled anything for Yan Pursuit, so that Yan Chai's spiritual talent can disappear, it must be an abnormal stimulation of something, this kind of thing must have an unusually strong irritating smell, or something that has a huge impact on people's divine consciousness。 If it is a poison, then Yan Chase will inevitably have signs of poisoning, but Yan Chase does not have any signs of poisoning, so it is only when it is stimulated by some special breath and something. Zhan Wuxian categorically analyzed.
"Yan Chase, did you hear what Xiao Zhan said, think about it carefully, what special stimuli can you smell along the way?" Li Mo suddenly asked with a calm expression.
"Something that particularly irritates the smell?" Yan Chai looked puzzled, but said a little confused: "No, only Brother Xiong asked me to help him distinguish a kind of herb, and the smell of that herb is particularly unpleasant......"
Before Yan's words fell, Brother Xiong's face changed suddenly, and he scolded angrily: "Yan Chase, what nonsense are you talking about? When did I take any herbs to distinguish? It was just a strange-looking weed, which we found together, and you want to smell it yourself, why did I tell you to distinguish it?"
"Oh, this is also, at that time, Brother Xiong just said that the weed is very special, and asked me if I knew what kind of grass it was, I said I don't know, he said don't you can tell a lot of herbs by smelling it? Why don't you smell it, so I sniffed it, the grass is indeed very weird, when I was more than two feet away from him, there was no smell at all, but when I got closer to smell it, it could emit a terrible pungent smell. Yan chased awkwardly.
"I think it may be that herb that stimulated your senses, rendering your talent useless for a short time. Zhan Wusheng glanced at Brother Xiong with a little meaning, and said indifferently.
Everyone's faces became very gloomy, although everything seemed to be a coincidence in Yan's explanation, but this kind of coincidence appeared at this special time, which made everyone's hearts feel heavy, but the big guy also knew that the problem with Yan's pursuit should have nothing to do with Zhan Wusheng, otherwise Zhan Wuxuan would not be able to put this problem out, and no one should be stupid to do this kind of thing. But it seems that Brother Xiong can't be blamed for this matter, because Brother Xiong may not know that the grass would have such an abnormality. Besides, Brother Xiong, as the deputy head of the Doomsday Mercenary Group, has no reason to do this at all, so what good can it do him if he also dismantles his own lift? Therefore, in addition to being heavy in their hearts, everyone doesn't know what to do at this time.
"Brother Yan, have you picked that grass back?" Zhan Wuming suddenly asked again.
"No, such stinky grass, I don't even want to touch him again!" Yan chased and shook his head.
"If there was a pattern of that grass, would you recognize it?" asked Zhan Wuming again.
"Of course, that thing is very special, easy to recognize!"
