In the depths of the underground mine, there was a gray tower hiding.
Back then, when Lin Dong ambushed Donald, this extremely vigilant fellow hid inside and never came out. Bord knew nothing about this, but Lin Dong did, but he decided not to disturb the gray tower's "rest" for the time being. When he returned from the underground palace, he would find this gray tower and see if he could develop this guy into a qualified guide. The Eye of Providence had been making trouble here every other day. If Lin Dong did not go to their side to do something in response and slap them hard in the face, then he would be too easy to bully as a cultivator.
Courtesy demanded reciprocity.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, that was Lin Dong's character.
Lin Dong made an eye-catching mark on the wall of the tunnel leading to the gray tower's hiding place and said to Qianjun, "It's hard to say what will happen in the underground palace. If I don't come out in time, you can go back first. There should be a hiding place at the end of this tunnel. One of the assassins from Donald's previous attack is hiding there. He hasn't moved from his hiding place for the past few days. You can bring him out when you return. He might be useful! "
"We'll definitely wait for you to come back together!" Qianjun was anxious. If Lin Dong didn't come out, how could he go back and explain to Cheng Mingge?
"Only under special circumstances." Lin Dong waved his hand. "Let's talk about it later. Under normal circumstances, that kind of situation won't happen. I'm just making a hypothesis."
The four of them moved on.
They were about seven or eight hundred meters away from Bord's team, following at a distance.
This distance of seven to eight hundred meters was nothing if it was on flat ground, but it was considered quite a long distance in the twisting and winding underground mine. Bord and the others were unaware of Lin Dong's tracking, and the underground river was right in front of him, so he didn't have time to care about his back.
From the mine to the underground river, there was a slightly tilted funnel-shaped pit.
This pit didn't exist before, and it took the foreigners a lot of manpower and material resources to dig it out. The tunnel was slightly tilted downward, and there were some muddy slabs like steps, which were barely passable. Some of the mercenaries wanted to save themselves some trouble, so they leaped and slid down the mud bank. At the end of the tunnel was the entrance to the underground river, from which came the sound of flowing water.
The underground river was extremely large. It was estimated that the surface of the river was no less than fifty meters, and its depth was unfathomable.
Fortunately, the underground river was not full.
On the shore, there was a shallow area with jagged rocks for walking.
"We've arrived at the underground river. It's very dangerous here. Everyone, stay alert!" Bord gave a special warning. "Maybe some people don't think so. They think they're good enough to handle any difficulties. However, I want to make a solemn declaration here again. For such people, if they do not listen to my advice and run into danger, I will not save them. When the time comes, you can only pray for your own good luck! In fact, all the arrogant, conceited, confident, and nonchalant people had died in this underground river or in the terrifying crypt. Very soon, you will realize how fragile life is, and how petty and laughable your confidence and pride are! "
"Boss, we'll listen to you!" Revolver, the leader of the Eye of God's elite personal army, quickly expressed his stance.
"I've entered the crypt five times, and every time I faced death, without exception. The reason I could escape from this terrifying place was because I have a cautious and fearful heart." Bord snorted. "You didn't hear me wrong. It's a fearful heart indeed. If any of you think you can do whatever you want down there, then stay away from me. I don't want to be implicated by such stupid companions. I've entered and exited five times, and my companions have long died. Among them, some were stronger than me, some were smarter than me, some were more proficient in survival skills than me, and some were more experienced than me. But they're all dead … Why? It's because they were confident and thought they could do it. In the end, death proved that they had to be humble and fearful of everything! "
"Mr. Bord, we understand the danger here. Please tell us more about it!" The other team was made up of people from the Plantagenet Dynasty and the Darkness Palace, as well as the Sacred Chrysanthemum Revival Society that the Plantagenet Dynasty had been supporting in recent years, as well as the Teutonic Knights and the Eastern European Grand Alliance.
There were as many as three leaders in this team.
The leader was the Specter, who ranked 55th in the Darkness Palace. He was a mysterious killer who was shrouded in a cloak and his face could not be seen.
This "Specter" did not seem to be the strongest, but he was very experienced. It was rumored that the Grim Reaper of the Scythe, who ranked 13th in the Darkness Palace, was his disciple. Some even said that the wizard who ranked 8th was this Specter's twin brother.
Unlike the powerful wizards, this Specter, who was said to be his twin brother, was very low-key and did not even want to show his true face.
Bord also respected the Specter, and his attitude was completely different from that of other mercenaries and killers.
In fact, the Specter was also regarded as one of Bord's most reliable companions.
The other two deputy leaders were "Smiling Gentleman" from the Plantagenet Dynasty and "Griffon" from the Teutonic Knights. As for the equally powerful "Hammer", "Wrangler", "Pipe", and "Forest Deer", they were not chosen due to their lack of companions, lack of influence in the organization, and lack of personal reputation. There were also outstanding young people, such as "Leech Lady" Enoko Kazama and "Blade" Xing Qianren, who did not even have the right to speak in this team. They could only follow the team and risk their lives. They might even be assigned as cannon fodder to scout the way.
Bord glanced at Griffon, who was speaking, and then at "Smiling Gentleman" who was also looking forward to it.
Finally, he turned to look at the silent Specter and said, "There are all kinds of monsters in the underground river.
Finally, he said, "There are all kinds of monsters in the Dark River. The most prominent one is the Dark River Lizard, which is as large as a crocodile. Not only are they numerous, but they are also extremely greedy. Anyone who is alone will definitely be attacked by them. If you don't want to exist in this world in the form of their feces, try not to stray from the group, and don't go to the deep waters.
"Of course, these damned Dark River Lizards are just a piece of cake. Compared to them, there are many more troublesome and deadly monsters, such as poisonous leeches! In this underground river, there is a kind of poisonous leech. The small ones are only a few inches long, and the big ones are two to three meters long. They can swallow a person alive, directly digesting your skin and flesh. Of course, I haven't seen the biggest one yet, and I don't want to be lucky enough to see it! I don't know how to deal with the big ones, and I can't give you any advice other than to escape. Don't mention the big ones, even if it's a small poisonous leech, if you're not careful and let them secretly bite you, then congratulations, their poison will quickly paralyze your body. You'll walk slower and slower, and eventually fall stiffly on the ground or into the river. You might even be able to enjoy the pleasure of them sucking your blood while you're suffocating to death … "
"If a large number of giant lizards and poisonous leeches can't trouble you, then there is a monster below that will definitely satisfy you. It is a kind of insect with long horns on its head, thorns on its body, and two large pincers in its mouth. I have given it a name, 'Pincer Insect'. The carapace of the Pincer Insect is extremely hard. Even if you shoot it with a gun, the effect is minimal. It is as if its whole body is made of steel. If you encounter this damned Pincer Insect, my advice is to take a detour. Fighting it head-on won't end well. I have seen at least three of my powerful companions have their limbs bitten off, their stomachs torn open, and their bodies chewed on with relish while they screamed in pain. If you insist on enjoying that delicious meal, I won't stop you, but please don't drag me into it. I will politely decline this kind of treatment! "
Bord didn't mention all the monsters, only a few that were representative.
But even so.
It was enough to scare the elites of the two teams.
Of course, no matter how scary the monsters were, they couldn't scare the adventurers' treasure hunting hearts. For the sake of treasures, lives and whatnot could be put aside. Everyone thought that they would be the lucky ones who would return with the final profit.
"I suggest that the two teams take turns to move forward. You don't need to be too fast. The team should unite all its strength and maintain the rhythm. Don't panic when you encounter an enemy. If your companions are in danger, rescue them immediately. Sometimes, saving your companions is equivalent to saving yourself. As for all suicidal behavior, such as picking up something in the deep water without permission, I will regard such brainless behavior as betrayal. I will never lend a helping hand. You never know if what's glowing in the deep water is a treasure or the eye of a terrible monster! "After Bord finished speaking, he personally led Eye of God's personal army to walk in front.
"Is everyone ready? Let's follow! "Griffon and the gentleman looked at each other and nodded.
Being able to come here meant that they were naturally mentally prepared.
Life and death.
Let's put that aside for now. Let's sneak into the underground palace and find the legendary treasure first!
At the beginning of the underground river, it was very calm. The two teams walked about two kilometers without encountering any monsters. At this time, Lin Dong also entered the underground river with the three women and quietly followed behind.
Just as the elite mercenaries were slightly relaxed, they suddenly heard Bord yell, "Attention everyone, there are Giant Lizards in the river. No one panic and no shooting. We have to use a large number of torches to force these guys to retreat. If anyone leaves the team, don't blame me for abandoning him. Everyone stop and take out torches to light up. Two for each person. Wave the torches hard. You have to protect yourself and your companions. Make the team more compact. Put down your guns and wave the torches hard. Gather the entire team together and continue forward … "
The mercenaries hurriedly did as they were told. When they lit their torches and waved them, they discovered that there were hundreds of 'little lights' in the river, and they were quietly approaching them.
As the Giant Lizards approached, the mercenaries were shocked to find that these guys had bodies even larger than the gulf crocodiles.
Fortunately, Bord had enough experience to deal with them. Otherwise, if these hundreds of Giant Lizards pounced on him, he would have died.
The consequences would be dire.
When the Giant Lizards saw the torches, they seemed to be afraid and slowly stopped a few meters away. They chased after them for about a hundred meters. Seeing that there was no chance, they silently sank into the water and disappeared without a trace.
"Continue forward!" Bord hurriedly ordered the team to speed up and leave this dangerous place. It was not time to take a breather. The greedy Giant Lizards could catch up at any time.
"Wah!" A mercenary suddenly found a black lump on his thigh. Under the light of the torches, he realized that it was a leech the size of a child's arm. He couldn't help but scream in fear. They didn't even know when this thing had crawled up and sucked blood. If it weren't for the tough protective pants, they would have been injected with poison and sucked blood.
A few torches were pressed on it at the same time, burning the leech until it sizzled.
The leech fell on the stone and writhed in pain.
The mercenaries did not let it go. They burned it with their torches until the leech was burnt to death, emitting a charred smell … The Gryphon and the Gentleman led the rest of the team to catch up. When they saw the ridiculously huge leech, their faces were filled with disgust.
Only Enoko Kazama, who was known as the Leech Lady, was an exception.
She actually picked up the burnt leech like it was a treasure and washed it in clean water. Then, like eating a delicacy, she swallowed the huge leech into her stomach.
Everyone present felt goosebumps when they saw this!
F * ck!
This woman actually ate leeches … Originally, a few men were interested in her and wanted to find a chance to have sex with her. But now, seeing that she was eating leeches as if they were eating sausages, all their feelings were gone. There was only fear in their hearts! Eating anything was better than eating leeches!
