Ye Chong collected a large number of mineral samples. Fortunately, the Spider's storage room was large enough to store them all. "Darkniss is a fertile land indeed," Ye Chong thought to himself. If this place was in the He Yue Galaxy or the Five Galaxies, no matter how strong the monsters here were, there would always be people who would risk their lives to capture this rich land of rare minerals.
However, only shooters above Level 7 were allowed to enter the area, which made it an undeveloped wasteland. However, to Ye Chong, the Wildlands were like a juicy piece of meat. Compared to other materials, Ye Chong was most familiar with metals. He believed that if he could build a base here, it would be very useful to him in all aspects. The most direct effect would be to shorten the time it would take him to find his way back to the He Yue Galaxy.
This was only his plan for the future. At least in the short term, he could not build a base here. Without sufficient strength, building a base in this dangerous place would only serve as a source of fresh food for the wild beasts of Darkniss.
His goal in entering Darkniss was clear. He wanted to get a better understanding of Darkniss.
Along the Furious Flame River, they continued to advance.
This was their seventh day in Darkniss. The Lava River was already far behind them.
"I don't think anyone has been here before. We're probably the first people to ever set foot here." Xuan Ning smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the Spider. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to reach so deep into Darkniss."
The Spider was much slower than a fighter or a mech, but it was still faster than a human walking. Shooters like Xuan Ning and Sha Ya would need more than 30 days to cover the distance that the Spider covered in seven days. As far as Xuan Ning and Sha Ya knew, no one had ever stayed in Darkniss for so long.
The scenery here was completely different from the place they had been to a few days ago.
The plants were denser, and the metallization was more complete. There were more mineral fragments on the ground, and the sky was darker. Lava was not as common here as when they first entered Darkniss. Most of the lava flowed in small streams. However, the number of glowing plants had greatly increased. On some of the trees that looked like metal spikes, there were beads that emitted white light. The whole tree was filled with specks of light, and it was as gorgeous as the silver flowers of the iron tree.
Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow thousands of spores into the sky. They emitted a faint purple fluorescence, creating a fairytale world.
There were many types of plants here, most of which Ye Chong had never seen before. The Golden Leaf that Sha Ya gave Ye Chong when they first met was just a common plant here. The plants here had a very high degree of metalization. Some plants were even 90% made of metal, which made them very strong and able to survive in this dangerous place.
There was a type of black threaded grass lying on the ground, each more than 15 meters long. To Ye Chong, they looked like alloy ropes. Their texture was extremely soft, but their toughness was much stronger than alloy ropes. This kind of black threadgrass often grew in patches, and traces of it could be seen everywhere. Its vitality was extremely tenacious.
Xuan Ning and Sha Ya had never ventured so deep into Darkniss. They were curious about their surroundings. In contrast, Ye Chong was calmer. He had been to many strange places, such as Archipelago, where the Sang Tribe lived. That place was also full of strange things.
The wild animals here were naturally alert. Other than a few ferocious creatures, most of them would not attack first. They would spy on the big spider not far away, sizing up this huge creature.
The wild beasts here were not big. Even the big spiders were considered huge here. They had never seen anything like the red-tailed beasts, which could grow to more than 10 meters.
Ye Chong soon noticed that the wild animals here had their own areas of activity. Along the way, the three of them did not notice anything out of the ordinary. But why would the snowshade leopard be so close to Darkniss?
Suddenly, a question occurred to him. "Have we reached the area where the snowshade leopard lives?"
"I don't know." Xuan Ning and Sha Ya answered in unison.
"This place is so deep. Didn't you say that no one has been here before? How do you know about the snowshade leopard? "Ye Chong asked.
Sha Ya replied, "I read about the snowshade leopard in the biography of a legendary shooter. The author was the only Level 10 shooter in the history of Eastern Cloud."
Ye Chong looked at Xuan Ning. Xuan Ning nodded. "I also read about it in Lascher's biography. It described the snowshade leopard's characteristics and strength. "
"So you're saying that people have been here before, or even deeper?" Ye Chong quickly grasped the key point.
"Who knows? Lascher has been dead for more than 300 years. I can't ask him even if I wanted to, "Xuan Ning joked.
Just then, Ye Chong pointed at the screen and said, "There's someone there!"
"Someone? Are you kidding me? How could there be someone here? "Xuan Ning did not believe it.
Sha Ya followed Ye Chong's finger and gasped, "It's a person!"
To the right of the Spider, there was a cliff. At the bottom of the cliff was a large rock. There was a silhouette of a person, surrounded by dozens of horned tyrannosauruses.
The horned tyrannosaurus was not large. If it stood up, it would be as tall as a human. The horned tyrannosaurus had a single horn on its forehead. Its body was covered in a layer of fine scales. It was a powerful defensive weapon. They were fast and ferocious. While they were not as strong as the snowshade leopards individually, they usually hunted in groups of dozens. They also knew how to coordinate their attacks, making them difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, they did not encounter a large group of Horned Tyrannosaurus. They only encountered a few scattered ones. Furthermore, the two main laser guns of the huge spider had astonishing destructive power. Xuan Ning and Sha Ya were also very strong, so there were no problems.
However, what they saw was that this person was fighting against a horned tyrannosaurus pack alone! Moreover, from the way he responded, he was calm and collected. He seemed to be quite experienced and did not panic.
Xuan Ning and Sha Ya were dumbfounded. There was someone here! They looked at each other, unable to believe what they were seeing. Xuan Ning was sure that without Ye Chong's Spider, he would not have been able to venture so deep into Darkniss. But there was someone here!
Who could be so strong?
Unfortunately, due to the distance, the three of them could not see the person's appearance clearly.
However, in this short period of time, a small portion of the One-Horned Tyrannosaurus surrounding the boulder had already fallen. The boulder was about 10 meters tall. The horned tyrannosaurus could not jump up to it. They could only jump up to seven or eight meters. Ye Chong did not know how the person managed to get so high up.
He held a laser gun in his hand and fired calmly.
The mysterious shooter's laser gun did not seem to be very powerful. It was much weaker than the Spider's two laser guns. However, the man was very patient. He fired again and again, accurately hitting the same spot, penetrating the scales of the horned tyrannosaurus. It took him about five shots to kill a horned tyrannosaurus, but he was the sharpest shooter he had ever seen. The ordinary laser gun in his hands was very effective.
Sha Ya's expression changed. Even Xuan Ning, a Level 9 shooter, was sweating profusely.
"Do you know him?" Ye Chong asked.
"I can't tell." Xuan Ning squinted, but could not see clearly. Sha Ya shook her head as well.
Ye Chong controlled the Spider to move forward. Before they could take two steps, the three of them were shocked.
Parapsychic sense! A strong parapsychic sense!
This time, Ye Chong's expression changed. He estimated the distance between them to be at least 15 kilometers. The man's parapsychic sense could cover such a long distance. That was terrifying! Xuan Ning's eyes shone brightly. This was the first time he had spread his parapsychic sense so far after reaching Level 9.
Sha Ya's parapsychic sense was stimulated, and she released it as well.
Ye Chong, who was at the center of the three parapsychic waves, quickly calmed down and stared at the screen.
The other party noticed their presence. On the big screen, he glanced at them.
The three of them could now see his face clearly, but to their surprise, such a powerful archer was actually a woman!
When Xuan Ning saw the woman's face, he shuddered. His expression was a mixture of shock and disbelief. He could not help but exclaim, "It's her!"
Ye Chong glanced at Xuan Ning and asked, "You know her?" Sha Ya looked at Xuan Ning as well.
"Quick, let's go help them," Xuan Ning said decisively, "I'll explain later."
Ye Chong heard him and immediately controlled the Spider to run towards the woman. Sha Ya and Xuan Ning grabbed their control levers without hesitation.
A Level 8 shooter and a Level 9 shooter, together with the powerful firepower of the Spider, dealt a heavy blow to the horned tyrannosaurus horde. The Spider's two main laser guns could easily tear through the thick scales of the horned tyrannosaurus.
The woman was shocked by the Spider's firepower. However, she quickly recovered and continued to shoot down the horned tyrannosaurus.
Soon, the horned tyrannosaurus horde fell to the ground. Only about a dozen of them were left standing. The remaining horned tyrannosaurus saw that the situation was not good, and immediately turned and ran.
The Spider carried the three of them to the rock.
The rock was smooth, with no place to climb. It was hard to imagine how the female shooter managed to get up there. The woman glanced at the big spider, then slid down the big rock. She was like a gecko, sticking close to the rock and slipping down nimbly.
Her movement surprised Ye Chong. If he had not seen the woman kill the horned tyrannosaurus with her gun, he would have thought that she was a combat expert, and a strong one at that.
Xuan Ning lowered his voice and said, "She's Mei Wu. Watch your mouth." He took a look at Ye Chong, thinking that he had wasted no time.
Mei Wu. Ye Chong felt like he had heard of this name before. He searched his memory.
Sha Ya looked troubled.
The three of them got off the Spider, and Ye Chong finally got a good look at the woman named Mei Wu. She had long and narrow eyes, thin lips, and a cold expression on her face. She wore an old grey combat suit, and carried an old-fashioned laser gun.
Mei Wu's eyes darted between the three of them. When she saw Xuan Ning, her eyes flickered. "So it's Master Xuan. I must thank you for saving me this time." Her voice was sharp and carried a hint of mockery.
Xuan Ning bowed and looked helpless. "You must be joking. I acted on my own. Why are you here? His Majesty has been thinking about you all these years. "
"His Majesty?" Mei Wu laughed coldly. "Looks like he's finally got his wish, and is now on the throne. Thinking about me? What does he have to do with me? Since when does he have the right to interfere in my affairs? "
Xuan Ning was speechless, but he did not know what to say. He lowered his head.
"Forget it, it's none of your business. You don't have to be like this. You're his subordinate, it's none of my business. "Mei Wu sighed, thinking of something.
Ye Chong looked at the two of them with interest. He remembered who Mei Wu was. She was the teacher of the Shu sisters. He did not expect to meet her here.
Mei Wu suddenly looked at Xuan Ning. "You've reached Level 9?"
Xuan Ning nodded honestly. "Yes, I just did it recently."
Mei Wu laughed coldly. "He must be happy now. Tsk tsk, a Level 9 shooter. Eastern Cloud has a new icon now. "
Xuan Ning did not know what to say.
He looked at the two of them and asked, "Are they your friends?"
Xuan Ning introduced them. "Yes, this is Ye Chong, a Master Weaponsmith. This is Sha Ya, a Level 8 shooter."
"Oh, a Master Weaponsmith." Mei Wu's interest was piqued. She turned her attention to Ye Chong. "Can you make a laser gun? I'd like to trade for one. The one I have is too old."
"A laser gun." Ye Chong thought for a moment. "That's not a problem, but what can you give me in exchange?"
Xuan Ning was sweating profusely. He quickly said, "Just give us the laser gun. We'll pay for it." As expected, this guy's way of speaking was still as unlikable as ever. Xuan Ning cursed Ye Chong in his mind.
Mei Wu raised an eyebrow. "I'll pay for my own things. You don't have to do anything." She turned to Ye Chong and said, "What do you want? Money is fine. I haven't left Darkniss for a long time."
"You … You … You've been in Darkniss all this time?" Xuan Ning was shocked.
It was the first time the three of them had heard of someone staying in Darkniss for a long time.
Mei Wu replied nonchalantly, "Yes, is there a problem? By the way, do you have energy crystals with you? I'm almost out of energy crystals. There's no way to replenish my energy crystals here. It's not easy to go out. "
Xuan Ning shuddered, as if remembering something. He asked tentatively, "You … You've also reached Level 9?"
"Yes, why? You're the only one allowed to reach Level 9? "Mei Wu glanced at Xuan Ning. Sha Ya was shocked. A Level 9 shooter, another Level 9 shooter!
Xuan Ning was overjoyed. He stammered, "You … When did you reach Level 9?"
"I don't remember. It's been a long time." Mei Wu grew impatient with the topic. She turned to Ye Chong and said, "You haven't told me what you need."
Ye Chong thought for a moment. "You've lived in Darkniss for a long time. You must be familiar with the place?"
"Not really. I've never been too deep. The creatures there are too strong. I'm not strong enough to fight them, and I don't have a weapon I can use," Mei Wu said honestly. "I'm not familiar with them. I've never been too deep.
"I need you to be our guide. Show us around the places you're familiar with. In exchange, I'll make you a laser gun and give you some energy crystals. What do you think?" Ye Chong said.
"Alright," Mei Wu agreed readily.
Ye Chong had a few laser guns with him. He had planned to trade them for the weapons design competition. However, aside from the colloid fungus, Ye Chong did not find anything else of value. He kept all the laser guns in Celest's dimension keystone. Ye Chong entered the Spider alone and went to the storage room. He pretended to be there, and then took out a laser gun from the dimension keystone. Sha Ya and Xuan Ning did not know what was in the Spider's storage room, so they were not surprised.
Mei Wu took the laser gun from Ye Chong. Her eyes shone as she praised, "Good gun!" It was a compliment, but it still made Ye Chong feel uncomfortable.
To Ye Chong, this laser gun was just an ordinary product, but to Mei Wu, it was an excellent laser gun. She loved it so much that she could not bear to part with it. Fortunately, she did not see Sha Ya's laser gun. Sha Ya's laser gun was even better.
"Did you make this spider too?" Mei Wu studied Ye Chong from head to toe and praised, "You're a Master weaponsmith. Not bad, not bad." Suddenly, she remembered something and looked at Xuan Ning curiously. "I remember you have a job. Why would he let you come here?"
Xuan Ning answered honestly, "His Majesty and Master Ye Chong have an agreement. I'm here to help."
Mei Wu sneered coldly, "He's still the same as before, able to use everything in front of him." She turned to Ye Chong, her expression softening a little. "Do you need materials? I remember weaponsmiths prefer gravstones. Let me bring you somewhere. " (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please log on to WWW. CMFU. com. Support the author!
