The Dark King
Chapter 529
"It's actually... there's another nest." Ian stared at the oval white eggs standing quietly around him.
Ruby swallowed a spit and said, "Isn't that the wind listener's ovary here? Isn't it... these are wind listeners who have not hatched?"
Hearing his words, the eyes of Luna and Rosemary and others showed a bit of greed and greed. If these are the eggs of the wind listener, it means that these are rare monster cubs, just wait for them to hatch In the growth period, you can kill and take out parasitic soul insects, and judging from the number of dense eggs around, there are dozens of them, which is a heaven and a fortune!
boom!
Suddenly, there was a violent roar in the cave above his head, pulling everyone's thoughts back to reality. Before everyone could react, he heard an angry roar, extremely loud, exploding like an angry thunder.
In this roar, the whole nest shuddered slightly, and the dark material on the rock wall fell off.
The faces of Ian and others paled in an instant, and looked up hurriedly. A large amount of sand and dust fell from the holes they dug, which seemed to collapse at any time.
"Quick, find out." Ian said quickly.
Du Dian shook his head slightly and said, "Useless, there is no road here, it is closed."
Ruby and Luna, who just wanted to act, were stunned and looked at him puzzled, with a trace of fear in their eyes, as if fear was really what Du Dean said.
Du Dian smiled bitterly and said: "There is no wind around, and you don't feel it, Captain. The temperature here is very high, much higher than the surface. If I guess right, the environment here is constructed according to the environment of the ovary. Yes, it takes a relatively high temperature to hatch these eggs, so the wind listener has completely closed it, even if there is a passage, it is also closed and needs to be cut, and the passage will only be connected to the cave above."
Hearing his words, the crowd reacted. The abnormal temperature and the sultry air around it did indeed have no breeze as Du Di Ando said.
Luna couldn't help but say: "Then, what shall we do? Wait here to die, that thing will get into the cave in a few moments, and find here, aren't we throwing ourselves in the net?"
Ian's face changed, and she gritted her teeth: "To this day, you can only fight for a fight, immediately set traps, get ready to fight, and rush out if you find a chance, Ruby and Eugene, you first find a mouth, maybe there is Other exports are not necessarily."
Ruby and Eugene nodded, held their torches high, and walked along the gap between the white eggs. After a while, the two returned to the team. Ruby said abruptly: "There are really no exits, everywhere. Rock face."
Hearing the words, Ian and others holding the last glimmer of hope were also dull and somewhat lost, but they had been prepared before and were not too disappointed.
Ian and Martin quickly packed up and continued to prepare traps in their hands. Poison nets made of special materials and trap materials such as dark arrow projectiles were placed in the shadow below the hole.
After a while, the trap was made.
Ian took a deep breath and stepped back, hiding near a white egg next to her, whispering: "Ready to ambush."
Everyone held their breath.
After a few minutes, Martin suddenly spoke and lowered his voice: "It seems that there has been no movement for a long time."
Ian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that since the previous roar, the movement above gradually stopped, did you say that the thing gave up chasing them?
Luna hiding behind another white egg said quietly: "Is it because its body is too big and stuck in the cave, can't you come in?"
"It's possible." Ian's eyes flickered slightly, recalling the location of the roar he had heard before, shaking his head: "It should be still in the cave, not leaving."
Everyone knows this naturally, if they leave, the loud footsteps will gradually go away, but the fact is not, but stopped. Obviously, after the thing can not squeeze into the cave, it seems to be ready to wait for the rabbit.
Continue to squat for a while, Eugene took the lead to stand up, gasping for breath, said: "It's too sultry here, since it can't come in, shall we wait for it?"
Ian frowned, and immediately said: "Speak quietly, don't disturb it. This kind of thing has a big appetite and generally has little patience. It will leave later. Don't act lightly."
Eugene shrugged, but said nothing more.
Gradually, as the movement outside remained silent, everyone came out of their respective lurking places, one by one like the fish that was pulled out of the water, and the messy hair drooped on the hard brain, only Ian’s body There is no sweat at all, and the body temperature is very normal.
"Shall we wait like this?" Ruby asked.
Ian nodded, "Wait until it leaves."
Seeing no other way, everyone no longer said anything, and each found a clean place to sit and rest.It's just that there are almost no clean areas in this nest. The ground is full of sticky things, both like feces and mucus secreted from monsters, and some like soft skin that has fallen off, sticking thickly. Together, it emits a strong smell like mud.
In the sultry temperature, the smell has evaporated to the extreme.
Luna clutched her nose tightly, her complexion pale, her body soft, as if she would be unconscious at any time.
Ian and Martin and others saw her in a bad situation and were a bit worried.Ian fanned Luna and said, "You drink some water, take it easy."
Luna nodded weakly, took some water from her rucksack and drank a little, her face was slightly better, but it didn't take long, and she sweated a lot all over her body, her face was extremely pale, and she sat on the ground.
Martin frowned: "It's not a way to go down like this. The smell here is too strong. Otherwise, let Luna go up first and stay on it."
Ian looked at Luna, who would be stunned at any time, hesitated and nodded.
Everyone joined forces to send Luna out of the hole.
Luna was lying on the side of the hole above her head, breathing out the "fresh" air outside, a little soothing.
Du Di'an rejoiced in seeing Luna. Fortunately, he replaced the "dread dyer" magic mark in time. The excessively sensitive sense of smell is good at some times, but the weakness is also very obvious. Although Luna is not a noble lady , Not so hypocritical, able to endure some unpleasant smells, but this is not a problem of endurance, but the body's physiological response.
It's like some people vomit when they smell something.
Among the five senses of human beings, smell is the strongest sensory stimulus to nerves. Excessive nerve stimulation causes the body to be unbearable and coma is normal. It is not considered to be of poor psychological quality.
"Let's break up, don't be around." Ian said to the rest.
Everyone sat a little bit apart and waited silently.
The nest ** was silent, only the densely white eggs twitched softly.
An hour, two hours... A dozen hours passed in the blink of an eye, and there was still no movement on the cave, even making people suspect that the thing had left.
But everyone still dare not act rashly, because that thing is likely to fall asleep there.
In a flash, five days passed.
In the nest, everyone's face is not very good-looking, although after five days, everyone has been accustomed to this sultry and strange smelly environment, but what made them unexpected is that what caused such a large amount of movement in the past can actually be in Waiting so long outside!
According to Ian's initial inference, this thing should leave soon, not even more than a day.
But now after five days, there is still no movement outside.
"The temperature here is too high, and our food is almost spoiled." Rosemary took out the water and drank a little, soaked only two lips, then put it away and said to Ian: "If you go on like this, we will starve to death. Inside."
Although everyone was not physically exhausted while waiting, their basic daily needs were still high, and although their food was sealed and waterproof, they could not withstand high temperatures.
Ian's face was gloomy, without a word.
Rosemary sighed when he saw that he had no plan, and turned to look at Ruby. Before entering the cave, Ruby discarded the burden of food. Now they can only rely on the food in their rucksacks, and These foods are only enough for them to save money for half a month. Although they will not starve to death after half a month, they will naturally decline in all aspects of their health, including responsiveness, even when they have been on an empty stomach.
"I don't think it's the way to continue to wait." Du Dian glanced at the people sitting around the cave. When the time was almost up, his eyes flashed coldly and whispered: "If that thing falls asleep, it will be half a month. , We simply can’t last that long."
"Then what do you say?" Martin squinted to Du Dean. Although Du Dean's performance was good a few times before, which made him somewhat admired, he has been a little irritable to stay here for five consecutive days.
Du Dian looked at Eugene, who was sitting next to a white egg, and said, "I think I need to send someone to check the situation to see if the thing is really asleep, or left quietly, if it is asleep, we Hing may leave quietly while it is asleep."
