After that battle, the blind followers seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and no trace could be seen in this secret base - whether it was their guards or the flesh and blood monsters, they all disappeared without a trace.

Shadow is invisible.

Everyone walked forward along the straight underground cave, immersed in silence and darkness. Only the rustling footsteps under their feet lingered in their ears. It was like an ancient voice, whispering. Fortunately, this was just a question about nervousness.

The hallucination, if you listen carefully, it is actually the sound of wind on the surface of the earth.

Although the floor of the cave is slightly tilted upward, as if it is gradually deepening into the center of the edge of the ridge, Fang Plover can conclude that the thickness of the stone wall on one side is no more than twenty feet at most, and there is Kukai outside, and the thinner parts may not be there.

this thickness.

Rocks several meters thick sound strong enough, but compared to the thousands of meters deep rock layer on the continental edge of Istania, it is just a thin layer of egg shell. In the darkness, Anloser

The emblem is still hanging on his chest, shining brightly in the dim light. Miss Tata is also sitting quietly on her right shoulder, her green eyes are quiet as usual, she only occasionally looks back at him and her 'sister' -

—A look at Miss Fang Nini who was grabbing two bunches of Jita's hair and acting domineeringly.

After walking for a while, the others finally felt something was wrong. The first person to react was Miss Nightingale. She took two steps against the wall, looked forward, frowned nicely, and then quietly backed away.

, like a silent shadow, slid back and stood in front of everyone.

Fang Yu saw Alyssa's bright eyes shining in the darkness, like a cat's eyes, and looked at him and asked: "Captain, are you a little too quiet?"

From before to now, apart from themselves, the only living creature she saw was a lemming crawling over the gray soil.

"Yes," before Fang Pliance could answer, Wu Xiaopang couldn't help it and interrupted: "Did those guys escape? Why is there no movement at all?"

"Indeed, it was clear that there was a lot of back and forth fighting before, but it seems to have suddenly calmed down."

Someone in Rufu's Shield also mentioned this.

In the darkness, Fang Yu took out the communication crystal and asked: "Sylwede, how are you doing there?"

The sound of rustling interference in the communication crystal became more obvious. A dust storm seemed to be brewing in the Silver Sand Desert. Erna told them that the dust storm in the sand sea caused the greatest disturbance to the ether. In other words, this powerful natural

The phenomenon itself is a manifestation of etheric disturbance.

The noble lady looked at the hazy sky floating above the sea of ​​sand. The sky was like dusk, the moment of doomsday was coming, but the center of the storm was still hundreds of miles away, and its edge had already affected the southern plains.

Port Snier.

She covered her flying scarf with one hand and listened to the slightly distorted voice of the plover inside the crystal - like a big child - and couldn't help but laugh: "There is no movement."

In the darkness, Sylvester's voice seemed to be stretched and intermittent.

"...By the way, Ed, there might be a storm."

Fang Yu was slightly startled: "Are you okay over there? If it's not safe, just go back to Tansnir with Shesta."

"It's still far away. The center of the storm should be in Istan. It won't affect Tansnir for a while, but it's hard to say in the next few weeks."

"That's good."

"Is everything going well down there?"

"Barely." Fang Yu thought for a moment and could only think of one adjective for the current situation: "We found some trophies, but the blind followers only had two contacts with us and then disappeared."

"Tianlan will probably like to hear this news," Sylvide smiled, thought for a while and then said: "I didn't see anyone on the ground, it's the same for blind followers or mystics. You may want to be more careful. I

Captain."

Fang Yu responded with a yes and closed the crystal.

The young fat man next to him heard this and his eyes sparkled: "Boss, is this your girlfriend?"

"how?"

"Wow, the voice is so nice," Wu Xiaopang's eyes flashed with the fire of gossip, and he replied exaggeratedly: "I'm envious."

Fang Yu felt a chill and subconsciously took a few steps away from this guy. He didn't expect that this guy actually had the same hobby as Alyssa. He should have noticed it earlier - and how could such a distorted sound sound good? Licking has been done since ancient times.

Dogs don't deserve to die well.

But the little fat man obviously had no awareness of this, and still lowered his voice and whispered: "The boss is really tall."

"What?"

Fang Yu was even more confused.

Little Fatty Wu rolled his eyes: "And Miss Jita."

Before he could finish his words, he got kicked in the butt.

He turned around and said angrily: "Who kicked me?"

The swordsman of Rufu's Shield couldn't bear it anymore: "I asked you, you damn fat guy, can you tell the difference between situations?"

Luo Hao coughed heavily and felt like an arrow had been hit in his knee.

However, the other party finally brought the topic back and expressed their views on the current situation. Most of the opinions were that the smugglers might concentrate their forces and plan to ambush them in front and give them a 'surprise', so they must be more careful next.

Some.

Only the Papalar man seemed to have a unique view on this issue. He put his hands in his pockets and said to everyone with a solemn look: "No, no, no, I don't think it can be that simple."

"Parker, what do you think?" Luo Yu asked him.

The Papalar man rolled his dark eyes and replied: "Everyone, have you forgotten the fact that our leader is a troublemaker? According to my sixth sense - the development of this matter should be

It’s weird no matter what, it’s just a direction you didn’t expect.”

"As for the ambush or something," the Papalar shook his head and his chubby cheeks swayed: "It's too easy to guess, I don't think it will work."

Fang Yu was furious, and immediately avenged his personal revenge and slapped the guy staggering, and said angrily:

"Say something useful."

Parker held his head and said angrily: "Isn't this useful?"

Luo Hao pressed his hands on the shield and sneered: "Only women have the sixth sense."

But this remark aroused the double hostility of Alyssa and Jita, and Miss Nightingale immediately responded tit-for-tat: "Fat Luo, what's the matter? You look down on women?"

Luo Hao then realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly raised his hands in surrender.

However, regarding the question of whether the Papalars have a sixth sense, several people in the Seven Seas Brigade finally reached a consensus - because it was only after the serious reminder from the box that they remembered that the Papalars had another

Comes with an identity.

In this way, both Luo Hao and Alyssa got the perfect answer.

Only Parker was a little annoyed, but he couldn't think of how to retort for a while. He couldn't bring up the fact that he wore a transgender belt. It would be strange if the people in Lufu's Shield didn't laugh out loud.

Our Mr. Nightingale King felt a little boring for a while.

Not long after, the two teams arrived at the end of this long cave, where there was a wide underground space. At the end of the darkness, a closed door stood silently.

Seeing this door, everyone couldn't help but turn around and cast their eyes on Fang Plover. They had previously speculated that the smugglers would gather together and set an ambush for them in one place. The door behind this door was obviously consistent with this possibility. If there was no

If you guess wrong, they might face a big war.

Fang Plover looked at the wooden door.

In addition to being thick and tall, he could not think of any other more appropriate words to describe this door - the opposite doors were tightly closed to each other, and they were plain and unpretentious. The surface of the solid wood had some pits, and the door panels only had hoops.

There were a few rusty iron hoops, and the door handle had long since disappeared.

Assuming that there are unknown dangers and minions lurking behind the door, he actually has another option - that is to wait for Abed to lead his troops. At that time, the blind followers will be attacked from both sides and will naturally defeat themselves. But in Fang Plover's heart

There is always a sense of unease, as if everything is going too smoothly, just as the Papalar people said before.

It was so smooth that it was almost incredible.

Where have the blind followers who behaved so cunningly in the city gone? The only opponents they had encountered before were dull and ignorant opponents.

The mystics also seemed to disappear without a trace.

He couldn't help but think of the clockwork goblins he had met before. Their master seemed to have not shown up yet. Could it be that they had an incident with the Duke hunter in the lower cave?

related?

After Fang Yu thought about it for a moment, he had already determined the answer in his heart.

Everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade was already used to their leader's way of thinking. When Luo Hao saw his expression, he took the initiative to stand up and said, "Let me open the door."

"Be careful." Fang Yu reminded him.

Luo Hao nodded: "I understand."

As the only Iron Guard in the regiment, it is true that only he is qualified for this kind of task - as for the people of Rufu's Shield, their level is not as high as his at the moment.

He stepped forward, pressed his hands on the door, lowered his body and gave a low shout, and pushed forward with force. The door trembled and rumbled, and opened a gap back. Luo Hao changed his posture again,

Use your shoulder to push your body against the door.

The door swings open backwards.

He immediately rolled back alertly, picked up a large shield from the ground and put it in front of him. He looked behind the door, but there was a dark hole behind the door, and there was no light at all.

"Light Flame Technique——"

The box snapped his fingers.

A bright light shines through the door, and a ball of flame hangs in the air, emitting gray light in all directions, reflecting the scene behind the door.
