Chapter 275: Kill him while he’s ill!
"Crack~~"
There was a noise coming from the gate, and the mutant monster in the cave came over following the sound.
The pupils in his golden-green eyes expanded and contracted, looking at the door vigilantly.
The one who pushed the door open was a team led by a lizardman.
The leading lizard monster walked forward, knelt down devoutly, and lowered his head to the ground, while the fish-headed monsters behind him lay directly on the ground with their weapons and shields placed on both sides of their bodies.
Muttering something to himself, a lizard monster in a robe on the stage waved a scepter in his hand. The small leader of the lizard monsters stood up and brought his brothers to fill the vacancies in the team.
The robed lizard monster looked around, and after confirming that the team was present, it waved the scepter in its hand. Wherever it pointed, the monsters there waved their arms and screamed.
Wen Ning was at the top of the entire cave, covering his ears in discomfort.
This strange cry is unpleasant and harsh.
Just when she was about to lie down and take a peek, the voice of the fish-headed monster suddenly came from the corner behind her.
Wen Ning had nowhere to hide, and when he looked up, he found a broken entrance to a cave at the top.
After hiding inside, Wen Ning crawled in the dark towards the source of the sound.
The underwater cave ruins are interconnected, with caves of all sizes connected by passages.
Wen Ning groped in the darkness for a while, and located the place based on the sounds and the small glimmers of light that were coming through.
She actually managed to touch the top of this group of mutant monsters.
The exit coordinates are not far from your feet, and the place where Wen Ning is located can also be considered a cave.
The space was quite large, and the cave entrance was on the side. Wen Ning could lean against the cave wall and look out to see the scene below.
Wen Ning observed the space behind him, thought about it, and only released 001.
It's not that there's too much space, but the main reason is that we're worried that it won't be able to bear the weight. It's enough to have 001 help scan the terrain, so that it will be easier to command when the battle starts.
The two of them secretly peeked down, and at a glance, Wen Ning recognized it. This was the altar painted on the wall of the cave outside.
The ferocious priest and the fish-headed lizard monster below also match the scenes on the mural one by one.
The cave below is at least several hundred square meters. When Wen Ning looked down, he saw that the fish-headed monsters below were densely packed.
It seemed like they were gathered in a square. There were more than 20 lizard monsters gathered in front, and behind each lizard monster were his own monsters.
It looks like there are about two to three hundred of them.
Wen Ning looked inside and saw a human figure covered with a pure white cloth on a crystal bed in the center of the altar. The figure wearing a robe next to him should be the priest monster.
The monster encyclopedia had not been updated. Wen Ning observed the appearance of the priest and watched him excitedly lift up his robe.
Six eyes appeared on the face.
Wen Ning understood. The monster encyclopedia had not been updated. Either this was a high-level monster, or it was the same as the lizard monster below.
But judging from the pious attitude of these monsters, he should be a high-level lizard monster.
Wen Ning didn’t have the advanced monster encyclopedia, so she could only take a gamble on this monster’s weakness.
Wen Ning returned his gaze to the center of the altar, the rectangular crystal bed, and saw a little formation diagram exposed under the bed.
This is the exit sign, and it matches the coordinates on the system map.
It seemed that the exit she was looking for was right under the butt of the monster lying on the crystal bed.
Wen Ning watched as the monsters below began to dance around the altar. The door opened and the monsters outside walked in with clay pots on their heads.
A group of fish-headed monsters gradually surrounded the crystal bed.
It was as if they were preparing for some kind of ceremony.
Wen Ning watched and thought about a way out.
She now has two choices. First, jump down to interrupt the sacrifice and kill all the monsters. Even if she cannot kill them all, she will have no problem escaping in the chaos.
Wen Ning made sure that he could at least escape unscathed.
As for the clay pot in the fish-headed monster's hand, Wen Ning had already put it into his backpack.
It is reasonable to take away the things you carry in your backpack, right?
The second option is to keep quiet, wait for the sacrifice to be over, and then sneak away.
Wen Ning must have selfishly wanted to choose the first option, and this idea became even more certain after seeing the white cloth on the crystal bed being uncovered.
There was a very beautiful man lying on the crystal bed.
From Wen Ning's angle, he could just see his beautiful face.
Wen Ning would have loved to admire it for a while, if he didn’t look too familiar!
She has white hair and skin that is as light blue as crystal and as delicate as a baby's.
On the sides of the neck are the gills that are fluttering slightly.
Isn’t this the man in the book of history? He is also very likely the man who launched the underwater sonic attack that invaded her territory on the day of disaster!
The fish-headed man piled the crystals in the jar beside the man, and the overlapping crystals wrapped the man up.
The fish-headed monster did not stop until the colorful crystal gems covered the man, leaving only his face.
Wait until the fish-headed monster carrying the clay jar comes out of the cave and close the door.
"Master, the door is locked."
001 reminded Wen Ning.
Lock the door?
Wen Ning's eyelids twitched, surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he looked down.
It seemed that all preparations were ready. Under the leadership of the priest, all the monsters began a strange chant.
Wen Ning's eyebrows began to throb, it seemed that this ritual was meant to wake up the man on the crystal bed!
On the disaster night, the fishman's sonic attack caused huge losses to the territory of light.
This is also the second monster that Wen Ning cannot deal with in the wasteland continent.
If he really waited for these monsters to wake him up, he would definitely find Wen Ning.
There is no doubt about this.
As if to confirm Wen Ning's guess, the crystals and rubies on the crystal bed began to slowly melt under the chanting of the priest!
Then the melted substance with flowing light came into contact with the man's skin, and the next second the man's skin actually actively absorbed the substance!
Wen Ning's expression changed, and the tone in his mind became solemn.
"001, we can't wait any longer, we must interrupt this sacrifice!"
Wen Ning guessed that this ritual was intended to recharge the man's energy.
And these crystal gems are the source of his power.
No matter what the opportunity was that led her to this sacrifice.
Today is the perfect opportunity for her to destroy this fish-man sonic monster!
It is possible that this time, this fish-man monster is undergoing a healing ritual after being severely injured by the Lantern Fish King!
There rang his deadly sound waves from the bottom of the sea.
The murderous intent in Wen Ning's eyes was evident.
Kill him while he is ill!
Wen Ning began to deploy his troops in his mind. The square was not particularly large, so Wen Ning could control the war robots and summon them anywhere within 200 meters of him.
Wen Ning plans to make a center bloom!
Just when the atmosphere of the live singing was about to reach its climax, Wen Ning moved.
The dagger in his hand was as fast as lightning, and the cold light swept down from the top of the cave at a high speed.
“Puff!”
Wen Ning accurately thrust the dagger into the eyes on top of the priest's head, interrupting its chanting!
“Uh…uh…”
A scream was heard and the priest immediately covered his eyes.
Wen Ning jumped out of the cave, and 001 appeared on the altar, reaching out and steadily catching Wen Ning who jumped down.
The lizard monster and the fish-headed monster were shocked. Amidst the uproar, more than a dozen robots appeared out of thin air on the outskirts of the cave square.
The sound of puffing was heard and the battle started instantly.
001 cleaned up the lizard monster that rushed onto the altar, and Wen Ning turned around and rushed onto the crystal bed in one step.
The giant sickle blade in his hand stabbed down at the fastest speed.
“Puff!”
The sound of swords entering flesh was heard, and Wen Ning's pupils shrank sharply.
The imagined killing sound did not occur.
At the critical moment, the priest actually rushed forward and caught Wen Ning's knife with his own hands!
