Although these vengeful spirits that appeared at this time seemed numerous, they were actually all made of black mist. In other words, they were all part of the sub-giants, just like an octopus lurking on the water surface with only its tentacles extended, it might be mistaken for a single individual.
However, after these twenty or so vengeful spirits entered the dimensional rift, although they were still alive in theory, they were completely cut off from their original bodies because they were moved to another dimension. What is the difference between this cruel fact and the serious damage after being purified?
Seizing the opportunity, Du Yuqi quickly ran forward thirty or forty meters. Looking back, he found no pursuers. Finally, he could not bear it any longer and spit out a mouthful of blood. The blood had been stuck in his chest for a long time. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he was still not satisfied, so he spit out two or three more times. The ground below was covered with blood before he stopped.
After spitting out the blood, Du Yuqi suddenly felt extremely weak all over his body. He could hardly lift even a finger. The Soul Blade in his hand was extremely heavy. Golden sparks appeared in front of his eyes and he was gasping for breath. Not only that, he felt hot and cold all over his body and shivered uncontrollably.
"This... Damn it, the weapons of these evil spirits are actually poisonous!"
Du Yuqi gritted his teeth and walked a few steps, but found that he could not hold on any longer, so he could only drink another sip of the healing potion. After drinking it, he immediately felt a warm current spreading throughout his limbs and bones, and his whole spirit was lifted. However, he was already a little exhausted at this time. Where did this heat current come from out of thin air? It naturally consumed his vitality, which was not a good thing. Therefore, Du Yuqi only dared to drink half a sip to leave enough strength to run away.
With the support of the healing potion, Du Yuqi continued to run and soon found a fork in the road ahead. One fork to the left was parallel, and the other to the right continued to go diagonally upwards. Needless to say, he was definitely going upwards. At the same time, the soil here began to become very moist, as if there was an underground water vein passing through. Wherever Du Yuqi stepped on it, it would leave deep footprints, and there was also a strange smell in the air.
As Du Yuqi climbed higher and higher, he felt something was wrong. He picked up some wet mud in front of him with his fingers and brought it to his nose. He immediately smelled an indescribable stench. He immediately came to his senses. How could this be an underground water vein? It was clearly the excrement of the monster that dug this hole!
At this moment, Du Yuqi really had a contradictory feeling of being surrounded by a wolf in front and a tiger behind. If he went forward, he would encounter this unknown monster, but if he turned around and looked down, the vengeful spirit behind him would definitely chew up all his bones until not a single bone was left.
Under such a contradictory situation, Du Yuqi decisively chose to continue to go up, but not long after, he found that there was some movement above him. Simply put, some small dirt clods kept rolling down from above, but there was no such situation before! This matter seems insignificant, but it is chilling to think about it, because what does this mean? It means that something has drilled in from above and is heading towards Du Yuqi.
As for what this thing is, it is most likely the owner who dug this cave.
If it were a different environment, Du Yuqi felt that he would still have the strength to fight, but now the cave has become much narrower, and it is difficult for him to walk normally. He has to bend down and lower his head. In this situation, even if he had 100% of his abilities, he could only use 30% of them. What's the point of fighting?
So, Du Yuqi sighed and could only turn around and retreat. It took him two minutes to turn around in this narrow cave passage, which made him more convinced that he was unable to defeat the enemy at this time.
After Du Yuqi turned around again, he came to the fork in the road again, and found that the passage leading to the abandoned laboratory was once again filled with the howling of vengeful spirits. So he had no choice but to go into the fork to the left.
However, this fork in the road only went in about thirty or forty meters before it ended. At the end of the fork, there were five different caves. Du Yuqi checked them one by one and found that the two caves on his left were filled with fruits and tubers of various plants, such as acorns, sweet potatoes, pumpkins and the like.
The other cave was filled with frozen prey. Du Yuqi carefully identified it and found the remains of half a yaksha, the legs of a cat demon, and thick ice.
Obviously, these two caves should be food storage rooms, and they even contain a combination of meat and vegetables. It seems that this monster actually pays attention to nutritional balance...
In the largest cave, Du Yuqi found a very large nest. Most of the materials used to make the nest were probably obtained from the ruins of the laboratory. There were actually squirming cubs in the nest. They looked like they were just born not long ago, only the size of a rabbit, with pink skin all over their bodies, and their eyes were not even open.
There was also another cave that looked like a special toilet. Du Yuqi's nose told him its use directly. At this moment, he had heard the unique strange cries of the vengeful spirits coming from outside, as well as a low roar coming from deep in the throat. Thinking of this, Du Yuqi's heart moved, and he tiptoed outside, then took a peek and was immediately shocked!
It turned out that there was a fight outside, and the one fighting against the evil spirit was a giant rat leader with dazzling red light in his eyes! The claws of this giant rat were extremely sharp, at least half a meter long. The most bizarre thing was that from time to time, strange red spirals of light would be emitted from its eyes, and once it came into contact with the evil spirit, it would disperse it. It seemed that the evil spirit was completely restrained.
"No wonder there are giant rats living around here! Could it be that those guys are the descendants of this giant rat monster?" Du Yuqi immediately came up with a speculation in his mind.
Looking at the extremely ferocious appearance of the giant rat leader, he couldn't help but think of an anecdote he had seen before on the continent of Arad. That was the rumor that there were ferocious man-eating giant rats in Hamulin in Northmar. Maybe the giant rat leader in front of him was an experimental subject from Hamulin, but it gradually mutated into this appearance after the test site was abandoned hundreds of years ago.
However, although the giant rat leader is very ferocious, it is also facing a group of fearless monsters. Unless it has the purification power after the awakening of the Paladin, or the skill to instantly exile them to another dimension, it will not make much sense to kill them quickly.
Soon it was seen that the giant rat leader was accidentally hit by a weapon. A powerful vengeful spirit suddenly threw a spear from behind, which pierced its left eye exactly. A stream of red blood spurted out immediately. The giant rat leader was immediately in great pain. He swept his right claw and immediately forced back three or four vengeful spirits. Then, he probably activated some special ability and rushed down against the group of vengeful spirits.
Taking this opportunity, Du Yuqi finally felt that God had a good fortune and he would not delay any longer. He rushed outside without saying a word. When he was about to reach the ground, he was suddenly shocked because he found a huge head facing him with its mouth open, and there were even sharp teeth in the mouth!
As the saying goes, it is better to strike first than to gain the upper hand. Du Yuqi slashed out with his sword without saying a word. The force of this sword was so strong that the wounds on his body burst open and the blood flowed again. At the same time, Du Yuqi was prepared for several tricks in case the opponent attacked him, such as what to do if he bit back, or what to do if he sprayed some acid, poison, or white sticky unknown substance from his mouth... However, all these calculations of Du Yuqi were in vain in the end. After he slashed out with his sword, he hit the opponent's tongue with a "snap", and even cut off half of the opponent's tongue, which was hanging next to him.
"This self-torture trick is too real!" Du Yuqi's eyes almost popped out at this moment! So he decisively added two more knives, still aiming at the eyes, and was still mad in his heart:
"I'll let you act cool, I'll let you pretend to be dead, I'll let you do something bad and try to trick me!"
