Zhu Long originally thought that his immediate superior's decision to send Tan Xiu to their team was simply a farce. Such a person of little value would only affect the team's overall strength and wouldn't play any role. But these two ideas not only saved them a lot of trouble but also made them realize that they had gained something.
However …
He was afraid that Tan Xiu would become arrogant and conceited, so he just flatly agreed with him and put the robot parts into the military bag. Due to the weight issue, he discussed with Firedevil for a while and decided to hide the military bag containing the robot parts in a hidden corner of the corridor until they returned.
"Let's move forward."
Zhu Long took a deep breath and took the lead to walk inside. At this moment, he had cautiously taken out the mini pistol and coldly glanced around. Even the slightest movement could arouse his vigilance.
A large number of steel-cast statues were placed in the spacious hall ahead. The moment Tan Xiu's eyes fell on those statues, his expression immediately changed and a strange look appeared in his eyes. These statues seemed to be placed randomly, but those who were proficient in arrays could easily see that the placement of all the statues was very particular and even formed a simple array.
It was a maze array!
As long as someone entered these statues, they would be lost in the array unless they were extremely lucky and happened to take the right route. Of course, the probability of such a thing happening was even smaller than winning 5 million yuan in the lottery.
"Technology?"
"Array?"
"The combination of the products of these two different civilizations shows that the civilization of the race that left behind this three-star vestige has reached a very high level. Though it's still far from those advanced civilizations, it's still countless times higher than Earth's civilization."
Tan Xiu took a deep breath and looked at Zhu Long, who was about to enter the maze array. He instantly grabbed his arm and said in a deep voice, "Let me lead the way since the vestige is full of dangers! Sometimes, it's quite useful to have a strong perception and be able to sense danger in advance. "
Zhu Long struggled hard the moment Tan Xiu grabbed his arm. What shocked him was that he could easily get rid of it if an ordinary person grabbed him. But Tan Xiu's hand was like an iron clamp that made his arm ache faintly when he struggled.
"Such power."
Zhulong sighed inwardly and nodded silently, allowing Tan Xiu to walk in front.
Firedevil approached Zhu Long and looked at Tan Xiu's back, asking in a low voice, "Boss Zhu Long, can this kid do it? We don't need cannon fodder. "
Zhu Long said, "We'll know after we walk around. Let's not be too far away from him. If there's any danger ahead, we'll immediately save him. "
In front.
Tan Xiu suddenly came to a halt. He looked at the four people behind him and said in a deep voice, "I can sense danger. We seem to have encountered something powerful. Therefore, you must follow behind me and do not fall behind easily. Also, look at my footprints clearly. It's best to follow them. "
Zhu Long was very cautious, so he nodded heavily after Tan Xiu finished speaking. Electrolady and Aquababe, who never joked in the face of danger, also nodded to indicate that they wouldn't act recklessly. On the other hand, the Fire Demon, who was carrying a military bag and holding a birdcage, had a hint of disdain in his eyes.
The space where the statues were placed was very large, about the size of a regular football field. Only a few of these statues were in human form, but most of them were in the form of various wild beasts, such as jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards, eagles, swallows, pigeons, and birds.
"Huh?"
Firedevil was walking at the back of the five people. His eyes suddenly flickered and he immediately walked toward a statue a few meters away to the left. The statue looked like an earthworm, but strangely, it had eight legs. There were many special patterns on its back that were dyed with various colors.
"Don't move!"
At the forefront, Tan Xiu was keenly aware of the Fire Demon's movement. He turned around and shouted in a low voice as he instantly pounced toward the Fire Demon. What made him angry was that the position of the statue in front of him instantly changed after he left the correct path of the array. As his footsteps came to a halt, his keen eyes looked around and his fist filled with surging power fiercely slammed the ground three meters to the left.
"Boom …"
Layers of ripples appeared in the air as though the space was distorted. In Tan Xiu's sight, the position of the statue was restored to its previous position. It was at this moment that his figure flickered lightning-fast and instantly appeared next to the Fire Demon, who had a dazed expression on his face. Tan Xiu grabbed the Fire Demon's shoulder and forcefully pulled him back behind Aquababe.
"What just happened was …"
The Fire Demon looked around with a puzzled expression before his eyes finally fell on Tan Xiu next to him.
"I originally thought that your ability user team was very disciplined and very cautious in this dangerous vestige," said Tan Xiu indifferently. "But I didn't expect you to be so arrogant and stupid. You better behave yourself if you don't want to get lost in this place forever. This is the first time, and I won't save you the second time. "
After saying that …
He quickly brushed past Aquababe, Electrolady, and Zhu Long and returned to the front. Even though Zhu Long and the other two looked puzzled, he still didn't explain.
The Fire Demon's complexion instantly turned red. The strange scene just now made him recall it and immediately gave rise to fear inside. However, Tan Xiu's merciless reprimand made him feel greatly humiliated. If it weren't for what Tan Xiu had just done, he would have slapped Tan Xiu to death.
"Mind your own business. I can solve it with my own strength even if I encounter a crisis," said the Fire Demon indignantly.
Tan Xiu ignored him and continued to move forward. He had made up his mind that he would never save the Fire Demon again if he was swayed by his emotions and insisted on deviating from the route he chose.
Zhu Long frowned and looked at Tan Xiu's back, asking, "What just happened, Tan Xiu?"
"Actually, I have a special ability," said Tan Xiu without looking back. "Well, I actually have a special ability, which is to understand Feng Shui arrays. This space full of statues has been arranged into an array. Moreover, it's the most troublesome maze array. Unless someone has the strength to break the array with brute force, the chance of survival is minuscule if you don't understand arrays and fall into it. "
Maze array?
Proficient in arrays?
Zhu Long's complexion drastically changed and he gasped inwardly. Tan Xiu's words made him faintly feel that this guy was somewhat unfathomable.
Electrolady and Aquababe looked at each other with shocked expressions on their faces. They were all ability users and had a high level of contact with people, so they naturally knew some things about Feng Shui arrays. It was just that they never expected that Tan Xiu would be proficient in Feng Shui arrays.
Could it be …
He's a powerful Feng Shui Master?
No wonder. No wonder the Great Leader, Duanmu Lin, actually forced Tang Xiu to join the team. He even agreed to Tang Xiu's excessive requests.
Firedevil's complexion turned ugly at this moment. Tan Xiu, whom he had always despised, had saved him once, which made him feel disgraced. Now, he even had the identity of a Feng Shui Master who was proficient in Feng Shui arrays. It was hard for him to accept it for a while.
Seven or eight minutes later, Tan Xiu led the four people through the statue space and came to a three-meter-wide passage. Looking at the steel gate in front of them, which completely blocked the passage, Tan Xiu's spiritual sense instantly enveloped the inside.
Zhu Long looked at Tan Xiu with a complicated expression. He understood that it was all thanks to Tan Xiu that everyone could come here so easily. It must be noted that nearly a hundred people from China came to the three-star vestige last time, but they only made it this far. Less than 20 people made it here alive, and only one person was lucky enough to pass through the statue space and the robot's attack and escaped with serious injuries.
Therefore …
His contempt for Tan Xiu had completely disappeared. Although he thought that Tan Xiu's combat power was not good, these special abilities were what they needed more.
"Tan Xiu, it's this gate. If we want to move forward, we must find a way to open this gate. Otherwise, we won't gain much from coming here. "Zhu Long's eyes flickered, hoping that Tan Xiu could find a way to open the gate.
Tan Xiu smiled indifferently. Through the observation of his spiritual sense, he had already found a way to open the steel gate. However, in order not to expose his special abilities, he deliberately looked around and finally stopped in front of some patterns engraved on the steel wall.
It was a dragon-shaped pattern. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell that the dragon was missing an eye. To be precise, it was missing an eyeball. Under the gaze of Zhu Long and the other three, Tan Xiu reached out and pressed the missing eyeball.
"Kacha …"
Along with a mechanical sound, the tightly stitched steel gate slowly split open from the middle and a wide corridor appeared in front of everyone.
Zhu Long and the others were overjoyed and looked at Tan Xiu with a bit of admiration in their eyes. However, when they saw the situation in the corridor inside, the joy on their faces instantly froze. Subconsciously, they even retreated a few steps back like snakes or scorpions blocking their way, as though they were facing a formidable enemy.
Tan Xiu slightly furrowed his brows as he looked at the robots on both sides of the corridor. After a careful count, he found that there were 18 robots in the tens of meters long corridor ahead. At the foot of each robot was a robot dog.
"Electrolady, Aquababe, continue."
Tan Xiu dodged to the side with a relatively calm expression.
Electrolady and Aquababe exchanged glances and nodded to each other. Then, one condensed a water dragon, while the other released lightning and quickly rushed toward the robots.
Buzz, buzz, buzz …
The 18 robots and 18 robot dogs were activated with sparks splashing in all directions and quickly stopped. Choking black smoke drifted in the corridor.
Tan Xiu paced a few steps forward and lightly said, "Let's keep moving forward! If my guess is correct, there should be something interesting ahead. "
