Chapter 280
The two looked in the direction pointed by the boss and found a huge rock that was as tall as a person. Just when they were wondering why the boss pointed out a huge rock, Lin Qingyang's ears moved, and he quickly pulled Cheng Hui to hide.
Just as his figure disappeared behind the boulder, two demons came out from a secret passage.
The appearance of these two demons is something Cheng Hui has never seen before.
A tall creature with distinct muscles, a sharp horn on its head, and feet as thick as cow hooves, wearing a pair of strange straw sandals.
There was also a demon the size of a human child riding on the unicorn's neck.
This demon was completely black and had a hunched body. The pair of large eyes on its face took up half of the space, and its nose and mouth were squeezed together, making its shape almost invisible.
Cheng Hui's heart moved. The little monkey monster's eyes were very strange, covered with a layer of red fascia. Through that layer of fascia, he could see another circle of golden rings in his eyes.
Whenever he looked over here, Cheng Hui would feel a palpitation in his heart.
Those eyes could see through the illusion, and Cheng Hui had this feeling for no reason.
No wonder the boss asked them to hide behind the rocks. Those eyes probably have the talent to break through magic, so all illusions and magic cannot escape those eyes.
On the contrary, using stones for physical shielding like them can help them avoid being observed by others.
After observing the surroundings, the two strange demons said something behind them, and soon more footsteps were heard in the passage.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang held their breath. They instinctively felt that what they were about to see might be a big secret that could change the situation of the Forbidden Magic Battlefield for thousands of years.
The two demons quickly walked onto the mud carpet. Just when Cheng Hui was wondering why they were not attacked by the mud carpet, the people behind them also revealed their figures.
Cheng Hui was shocked. Following behind the two demons was a team of naked humans, both men and women, each with an octopus-shaped demon on their head.
This octopus monster has a very small head, only as big as a fist, but its tentacles are thin and long.
Cheng Hui noticed that the tentacles of the octopus monsters had penetrated into the nasal cavities and ear canals of these people. Everyone had the same dull expression, as if they were just a group of human puppets.
Under the command of the two special demons, these people came to a rock wall.
No one knew what the two demons did, but the towering rock wall suddenly began to wriggle, like a breathing mountain of flesh.
Cheng Hui was shocked. That thing was actually alive?
He and Lin Qingyang exchanged a glance and secretly thought they were lucky. Fortunately, they had been very alert along the way and hadn't made any big noise, otherwise who knows what would have happened.
The two demons brought the puppet-like human to the front of the meat mountain. The little monkey monster jumped from the unicorn monster's head to the first person, and its sharp claws cut the man's arm.
The man foolishly stuffed his bleeding wrist into the mountain of meat. The octopus monster above his head quickly retracted its tentacles and climbed onto the unicorn monster.
The man seemed to wake up from a daze and looked around in horror. When he saw his arm being swallowed, he couldn't help but scream.
Cheng Hui couldn't bear it and was about to rescue the person, but he saw that the person suddenly stopped screaming and even showed a happy expression.
Cheng Hui: ???
When the man showed a happy expression, the octopus monster quickly climbed back onto his head, put its tentacles deep into his ear again, controlled him, and slowly retreated.
The unicorn monster stepped forward at the right time and suddenly inserted a sharp tube into the meat mountain. A large amount of transparent juice flowed out of the tube and was poured into the bucket. Those people controlled by the octopus monster struggled frantically. At this time, the octopus monster relaxed its control at the right time, and those people surrounded the bucket, scrambling to drink the liquid.
Cheng Hui felt a little disgusted and even doubted whether these people were still human beings.
Soon, the liquid in the tube gradually decreased, and the octopus monster immediately controlled those people to line up and come forward to feed the mountain of meat with blood.
After those people had lined up to donate blood and drank a glass of clear liquid, they lined up again and walked under the cocoons.
The unicorn monster collected the remaining liquid and came to the crowd, saying something. Several purple-black tentacles hung down from above. These tentacles rolled up the human and spit out silk from the top, wrapping the human in a cocoon. After checking and confirming that there was no problem, the unicorn monster brought a large number of octopus monsters and little monkey monsters to another area.
Cheng Hui noticed that the broken cocoon had fallen nearby.
The unicorn monster looked back and forth at the cocoons, like a hardworking old farmer who was now ready to harvest his fruits.
"The quality of this batch is not very good." The little monkey monster looked at it for a while and complained dissatisfiedly.
The unicorn sighed, "There's nothing we can do. The situation is bad right now. It's hard to catch humans. I heard..." He suddenly looked around and lowered his voice, "I heard that the young organism we managed to conceive last time was captured by humans."
The little monkey monster screamed, "What? That's the only larva! What else can these useless people do?"
"Shh, keep it down." The unicorn was startled and looked around frantically. After confirming that they were the only two people there, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you crazy? Why are you so loud? What if you anger some adult? Are you dissatisfied with your own death not being fast enough?"
The little monkey monster gritted his teeth and said, "Bullshit adults! We worked so hard to raise them! Why do they become adults?"
The unicorn also sighed: "Okay, stop complaining. It's our bad luck. We are different from that adult."
"Bah! I don't accept it!"
"So what if you don't accept it?" The unicorn glanced at him and curled his lips: "You still have to cultivate new seeds obediently."
The little monkey monster frowned and angrily tore a cocoon with his sharp claws.
As the liquid drained away, the cocoon quickly shrank and a strange-looking creature fell out.
The unicorn sighed, "That won't work either. Have you noticed that our success rate has been getting lower and lower recently? If this continues, we'll probably suffer on the battlefield over there."
"So what if I suffer a loss? What does it have to do with me? They won't share the benefits over there with me." The little monkey monster looked indifferent.
The unicorn didn't know what to say, so he could only continue to check the other cocoons.
Cheng Hui watched them pick and choose. Most of the cocoons were punctured, and the creatures inside were left to fall to the ground and be swallowed by the tentacles.
There were only a few creatures that looked ferocious in appearance, carried on the shoulders of the unicorn monster. However, the little monkey monster still had a look of disgust on his face, as if he looked down on those ferocious monsters.
The little monkey monster looked at the creatures on the unicorn monster's body, and suddenly became angry. He jumped up and tore the unicorn monster's hands.
The unicorn was caught off guard and failed to stop the monsters, and they all fell on the mud carpet.
Without special straw sandals to isolate them, these creatures, which had just been born, were all swept away by the tentacles.
The unicorn monster didn't seem very angry, but just sighed softly: "Why are you doing this?"
"I'm not happy with them, okay?" The little monkey monster vented his anger and felt much better. He slowly climbed onto the unicorn monster's head and sat down.
The unicorn monster looked helpless and said, "Okay, okay, as long as you're happy. They're just semi-finished products anyway. I can just cultivate them next time."
Anyway, these people are trapped here and there is nothing to do except breeding new species of demons.
As for those ferocious creatures?
Haha, what creature? I didn't see it.
Anyway, the adults won’t really come here to check, so if they say there are no suitable new varieties, then there are none.
The two of them walked back slowly carrying the transparent liquid, and Cheng Hui's sleeves flew up again.
Cheng Hui looked at his cuffs and saw the direction the two men had left. His face suddenly turned bitter and he whispered, "No way! That monkey monster can see through the illusion array. If we follow it, we'll easily be discovered."
Words appeared on the sandbox: Don't worry, his body can't sustain activating his talent all the time.
Cheng Hui: I understand.
The boss has spoken, so just follow him.
The two of them activated the formation again and slowly controlled the flying swords to follow behind the two people.
Perhaps there really haven't been any enemies here for a long time, and both the unicorn monster and the little monkey monster seem to lack vigilance.
Except for the initial check, I turned off this feature afterwards.
Cheng Hui followed the two demons into the passage, but not long after, they parted ways.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang looked at each other: With whom?
Without them having to think about it, the boss gave the answer directly, and his sleeves flew towards the little monkey monster.
There are many demons in the passage. They all have strange shapes, and some are even out of balance.
Cheng Hui saw a mushroom-shaped demon that looked very similar to the poisonous mushrooms seen on the battlefield, but the mushrooms here were less aggressive and did not grow any small tumor-like mushrooms on them.
If I have to say, the mushrooms on the battlefield are more like a pure killing weapon, but this mushroom here looks... quite lively.
No one knew how these demons built such a huge cave here. There were passages everywhere in the cave, densely packed and interconnected. If there was no one to lead the way, Cheng Hui felt that he could get lost in there for a hundred years.
I really don’t know how the little monkey monster can distinguish different roads. In order to avoid getting lost, Cheng Hui left many marks along the way.
Soon, the little monkey monster went further and further astray, and gradually, fewer and fewer strange demons appeared in the passage, until finally none could be seen at all.
The little monkey monster suddenly stopped, and Lin Qingyang also stopped vigilantly, and quickly retreated to the place where he had turned just now.
Sure enough, the little monkey monster opened the Eye of Demon Destruction, looked around and confirmed that no one was following him, then he closed his talent and quietly pushed away a huge rock, revealing the cave inside.
Lin Qingyang seized the opportunity and flew in over the little monkey monster's head before he closed the door.
Fortunately, the person who built the secret room did not design it according to the little monkey monster's body shape. His short height actually created an advantageous condition for Lin Qingyang and others.
As soon as Lin Qingyang and Cheng Hui entered the secret room, they smelled a foul odor.
The stench gave Cheng Hui a bad feeling.
When the little monkey monster walked in and lit the candles on the wall, Cheng Hui knew that his premonition had come true.
At this moment, he was extremely grateful that they flew in and did not step on the ground, otherwise he was really afraid that he would not be able to help but scream.
The entire floor of the secret room was covered with all kinds of insects.
Cheng Hui could imagine that if he walked in without noticing, he would be covered in bugs in the next second.
Tsk, it’s scary just thinking about it!
