Chapter 283: Peeping into the Monster's Lair
This battle lasted longer and was more difficult than the previous ones.
Xie Liuyin and his companions endured for five full days before the monster tide receded. Seeing that the monsters that had originally surrounded Xie Liuyin and tried desperately to bite off a piece of her flesh, they retreated one after another as if they were inspired by something.
Xie Liuyin suddenly felt curious. She attached a wisp of divine consciousness to one of the monsters that didn't look very smart, and quickly disappeared along with the group of monsters.
"Let's go, Junior Sister Xie. We need to go back and heal our wounds." Liao Yan saw that she was staring at the direction where the monster tide left, so he urged her.
Xie Liuyin came back to his senses and followed Liao Yan into the city.
They all had wounds to varying degrees, but the blood from these wounds could not be tested.
Blood must be drawn again on the spot and the instrument must be monitored in real time to ensure the authenticity of the test results.
After successfully passing the test, Xie Liuyin was allowed into the city.
Her injuries were not serious, and she could treat them herself without help. Liao Yan didn't pay much attention to her, but followed Song Xing to take care of other injured people.
Xie Liuyin simply treated the wound and then returned to his residence.
She lay on the bed and concentrated on connecting the wisp of divine consciousness she had separated. The next second, a strange picture suddenly appeared in Xie Liuyin's mind.
The angle of the picture was a bit low, and all I could see were monsters of various shapes. They were running wildly in one direction, as if they were inspired by something.
With just one glance, Xie Liuyin became serious and waited to see what would happen next.
Attaching divine consciousness to monsters to explore their origins is indeed a risky method.
If anything happened to this monster, Xie Liuyin would also be in danger of having his spiritual power damaged.
But she was really curious about where the monsters came from, because she felt that this regular and organized siege did not seem like the monsters' spontaneous behavior at all, but rather had some kind of human-induced flavor.
Xie Liuyin felt that Song Xing and the others must have also noticed this, but they did not think more about it as Xie Liuyin did, and probably simply thought that it was an attack organized by some smart monster.
But Xie Liuyin realized that the situations of the two attacks were similar, but today's attack was more fierce.
However, Xie Liuyin could also understand this point. Now that the skin-covered ghost's plan had been exposed, those monsters naturally wanted to take revenge on them.
But these actions made Xie Liuyin even more certain that behind the monsters there was definitely a being whose intelligence was no less than that of humans.
She was very curious about what kind of monster was this one who could come up with such a sinister trick as the skin-covered ghost.
The other party's wisdom is beyond the reach of ordinary humans. How can Xie Liuyin not feel worried?
If this continues, who knows what conspiracy that clever monster will come up with in the future. This time, the skin-covered ghost is a newly born monster, and Xie Liuyin has no way of predicting what kind of strange monster will appear next.
These worried thoughts were still circling in my mind, but the scene before my eyes had changed again.
Xie Liuyin's spiritual consciousness followed the monster all the way forward, and after crossing countless sand dunes, it finally arrived at a place that looked like a nest.
The location of the nest was very secretive, hidden under thick yellow sand.
If it weren't for the monsters' extremely sensitive sense of smell and their excellent ability to recognize the way, no one else would have been able to discover that there was actually an entrance to a huge lair under the yellow sand.
Dense black monsters dug through the yellow sand and drilled into the ground smoothly.
I don't know how long I climbed, but the yellow sand in front of me suddenly turned into a dark cave. Xie Liuyin's mind also fell into the cave with the monster, and then continued to move forward with the monster's team.
The cave was very large and deep. Although there was little light inside, with the help of the monster's eyes, Xie Liuyin was finally able to see the structure inside clearly.
She tried hard to write down all the details, intending to tell Song Xing and the others about her findings after the séance.
The tunnel of the cave went all the way down, and the monsters climbed along the tunnel for a full quarter of an hour before reaching a high rock cave.
The monsters moved very quickly, but even so, they still crawled inside for a full quarter of an hour, which shows how big the underground is.
What Xie Liuyin didn't expect was that this cave was not the end of the nest. There was only a huge monster guarding the cave, barking at the other small monsters.
Later, Xie Liuyin discovered that some of the more powerful monsters changed direction and went to the corridor on the right side of the cave. No one knew what they were doing.
Just as she was thinking about what to do with the remaining monsters, the huge spider-shaped monster swung its slender legs, pierced a low-level monster, and put it into its mouth!
The crunching sound of the monster being bitten made Xie Liuyin's hair stand on end.
The spider monster seemed to have opened its appetite and swallowed one monster after another into its stomach.
Even the little monster that Xie Liuyin's spiritual consciousness was attached to was almost eaten by it. If she hadn't mobilized her spiritual consciousness at the critical moment, the little monster would have pretended to be pushed away and avoided it slightly.
She was afraid that the little monster had already entered the spider monster's stomach and had been chewed into a crispy state.
Seeing that there was no more useful information to be found in this place, Xie Liuyin tried to guide the little monster to somewhere else.
But the rules of the monsters in the underground were obviously stricter than Xie Liuyin had imagined. Encouraged by her, the little monster set out to explore the underground. The spider monster guarding here immediately discovered it and screamed at the little monster.
Although Xie Liuyin didn't understand what the spider monster was roaring, the little monster was obviously frightened. It immediately huddled up into a ball and dared not move anymore.
Xie Liuyin was helpless, she regretted it now. If she had known earlier, she should have chosen a higher level monster, so that she could have seen other places on the earth.
She was worried that her divine consciousness would be discovered by the monster, so she deliberately chose the not-so-smart one, but she didn't expect that it would end up hurting her.
Helplessly, Xie Liuyin could only stay with this little monster and wait and see if there would be any turning point.
By the way, she also carefully looked at the spider monster in front of her.
Xie Liuyin had never seen this kind of spider monster outside before. There had been large monsters attacking the city before, but never one like this.
She had a vague feeling in her heart that the origin of this spider monster must be unusual.
The spider monster had a huge appetite, and it ate more than half of the small monsters that were originally crowded together filling up most of the cave.
The remaining little monsters are only one or two tenths of what they used to be and look extremely pitiful.
But what surprised Xie Liuyin was that after the spider monster was full, it actually let the other little monsters go to the corridor on the left.
Xie Liuyin quickly perked up and followed the little monster into the corridor.
