The next day, August 18, early morning. After Li Er woke up, he simply washed and immediately summoned the army, and asked people to bring the murloc captives who had been detained for a few days to him. At present, there are still several important areas near the City of Weirdo that have not been explored yet-↑30 kilometers north, there are more than 500 level 9 rotten centaurs. The demiplane where the two-headed ogre chief is located. The valley occupied by the dark naga and the ancient ruins discovered by the murlocs. Today he plans to explore the ancient ruins discovered by the murlocs first. If he has time, he will go to the dark naga again to try to find out the specific strength of the other party. The gathering place of rotten centaurs and the demiplane occupied by the two-headed ogres, one is not close, and the other is in another plane, so you can put it aside for now and attack it later. Take it step by step. He brought three squadrons of wetland lizardmen and summoned 50,000 muddy wasps.
There is also the two-headed ogre chief with the team. The Bubble Beast and Swamp Banshee who had been following the battle for the past few days stayed in the territory for a while. Hagus also stayed in the territory to manage the newly joined wetland lizardmen. The family needed a strong hero to keep the place in check. Today's main task was exploration, so there was no need to bring all the troops. After the army gathered, they went directly to the south. The purpose was clear and the action was fast. Among the 300 wetland lizardmen warriors brought, two hundred were new. This was their first time to fight with the army. After leaving the territory, they were a little unfamiliar and didn't know how to cooperate with him. Seeing this, Li Er directly disbanded the old warriors of 10 teams and used the old to lead the new. Speed up the running-in. The wetland lizardmen had a very sensitive sense of smell for battle. With the help of the veterans, they quickly ran in together and gradually developed a tacit understanding. Begin to get familiar with Li Er's command style. After traveling more than ten kilometers to the south, when there was still more than an hour away from the ancient ruins, Li Er felt something strange. This area has not been explored, but no wild monsters were found along the way. There are even fewer mosquitoes. And in the mud, you can often see some messy footprints. But it is difficult to leave useful information in the mud, and it is impossible to identify what kind of life it is. I couldn't help but be alert and let the army strengthen its vigilance. After walking forward for another ten minutes, the wetland lizardman who was exploring the way came over with a pale and swollen corpse.
This is the corpse of a half-fishman. You can still vaguely see the fear on his face, as if he saw something extremely terrible. The skin is bloodless and pale. "Master, this is a corpse that was just found. The death time is no more than one day." "The creatures around here have been cleaned up!" Li Er frowned. The half-fishman's corpse did not have any major wounds, only two striking marks on the neck. It seems that the neck was pierced by the fangs of a wild beast. While thinking, the perception is fully open. After carefully sensing from beginning to end, his face changed slightly after a moment. There was a faint evil breath lingering in the other party's heart. Li Er suddenly thought of the scene of the swamp hippopotamus worshiping the evil god he had seen before. That evil breath was very similar to it. Are there other lives in the swamp that also believe in the evil god? As his thoughts turned, his mind moved. Let the mud swamp wasps in the sky spread out and search around to see if there are any abnormalities. Numbers are king. Tens of thousands of mud swamp wasps blasted away, and soon several kilometers around were explored. In the end, there was really something found. After Li Er received the news and arrived at that area, he immediately saw a horrifying scene. On a half-wet and half-dry lawn in front, more than two hundred half-fish people knelt on the ground with their heads facing up. From the outside to the inside, they formed a circle. Their faces were also facing the center of the circle. The marks on the neck pierced by the beast's sharp teeth were particularly obvious, and there was no breath of life long ago. Moreover, the death state of all the merfolk was exactly the same. Lear's face became a little solemn. These merfolk were obviously drained of blood for sacrifice The two-headed ogre chief also strode forward at this moment and said in a deep voice. "My lord, these merfolk are only a shell left, and all the blood and flesh energy in their bodies have disappeared." Lear said slowly. "Have you found anything nearby?"
"No, there are only corpses here. The two-headed ogre chief's tone was also very serious. He felt vaguely uneasy. It is often not a good thing to hook up with the evil god. Lear took a deep breath. It seems that the swamp is more complicated than he expected. "Let's go and find the ruins first. " Without receiving relevant news, he did not stay for long. No matter what happens in the outside world, the most important thing is still oneself. As long as one's strength is sufficient, no matter how big the threat is, it can be suppressed. After this, everyone's eyes were a little solemn. The atmosphere of the march also became a little depressing. On the following journey, there were still no wild monsters encountered. It seemed that all the lives in this area were cleared by those unknown evil god believers. It was not until more than an hour later that the news from the front slightly diluted the heaviness of the air. Ancient ruins, here we are! Lear immediately cheered up and led the army to go. Through the smelly muddy land in front, they came to a towering tree with countless vines and a canopy covering a diameter of more than 100 meters. Under the guidance of the half-fish captive, he passed through the dense vines and came to the trunk of the tree. When Lear approached, he found that there was a stone door growing on the trunk of this giant tree! The height of the stone door was more than 15 meters, and the width was an astonishing 10 meters! Dense moss grew on it, and the runes engraved on the stone door had long been blurred under the erosion of time. The half-fish captive said in a trembling voice. "The respected lord, the chief, said before that this alchemical door has lost its magic power and can only be pushed open by brute force." Lear looked at the exaggerated stone door, and his mouth twitched. How much strength does it take to push it? However, he was still a little unwilling in his heart, and waved his hand to let the wetland lizardman try first. The two-headed ogre chief heard the words and immediately became excited, taking the lead and rushing to the front line. With a height of nearly three meters, he was like a little giant, and his strength was much stronger than that of ordinary wetland lizardmen.
The wetland lizardmen behind him pushed forward one by one. However, there were not many places to stand in front of the stone gate, and the vines were overgrown around it, so it could not accommodate too many people. Under the roar of the two-headed ogre chief, more than 40 wetland lizardmen exerted their strength at the same time, but in the end, they used all their strength, and the stone gate remained motionless. It felt like pushing a majestic mountain. The two-headed ogre chief, who had always been proud of his strength, finally trembled in his hands. He said unwillingly. "Master, clear all the vines around and make a catapult to blast the stone gate open!" "This stone gate cannot be opened by ordinary manpower!" The half-fish captive next to him changed his face. "You can't do this." He hurriedly explained. "My lord, the chief said before that this big tree was originally part of the ruins. Once the vines or the trunk are destroyed, the ruins are likely to collapse directly." "According to the chief's speculation, this ruins has a diameter of at least five kilometers." Lear raised his eyebrows slightly. Five kilometers? No wonder the other party is so honest to find the Cyclops. Hearing this, the two-headed ogre chieftain could only stop with a hum of reluctance. Lear stared at the runes on the stone door, and with some thought, he waved his hand to let the wetland lizardman make way, and stepped forward. As he got closer, he could feel the thickness and heaviness of this door more and more. Even if he could use a catapult to smash it, it would be difficult to have an effect. He took a deep breath, pressed his right hand on the stone door, and felt the touch of moss and rock at the same time. His mental power escaped. After a moment, his face was a little subtle. He could feel that the thickness of these two stone doors reached. Three meters!! Three meters thick, fifteen meters high, ten meters wide stone door. Are you sure this is not a city wall? At this moment, Lear was a little doubtful whether the Cyclops could push it open. He shook his head and let go of his hand. But at this moment, new information quietly appeared in the intelligence system in his mind.
[You discovered an ancient ruin that has never been explored. Extra information is obtained: 1. The gate of the ancient ruins is mixed with a unique metal, which is ten times heavier than ordinary rocks. Only the Cyclops can use the power of blood to drive the metal to push the gate. Once you break into it, the energy of the ruins will restart and the gate will close again. Only by reaching the energy core deep in the ruins can the gate be reopened. ] [2. This ancient ruin is a relic of the goblin civilization. It contains precious treasures, even 5-star treasures, but the ruins are also guarded by extremely fierce mechanical puppets, which have reached level 10 and the number exceeds a thousand. The most powerful is the 14th-level mechanical puppet king. ] Looking at the additional refreshed information, Lear was a little surprised, but frowned again after reading it. Good guy, this door is more exaggerated than he imagined. It is mixed with metal and is ten times heavier than ordinary stones? ! And after entering it, the door will automatically close, and it can only be opened again after passing the level and entering the core. The power of the guardian inside is even more ferocious. However, can it produce 5-star treasures? ! ! He felt that this was like a bait, tempting him directly. It smells so good, 5-star treasures are not much worse than artifacts, right? He looked at the gate deeply. "Et, go back first, this ruins cannot be explored now." Although the 5-star treasures are tempting, they must be obtained. Not to mention other things, the thousands of level 10 mechanical puppets alone are a chasm blocking the road. Mechanical puppets are mechanical creations, and the deadly poison and pain that are fatal to ordinary life have no effect on them. The effect of the muddy wasp is almost zero. The rest, how much does he need to pay to kill the wetland lizardman in his hand? Not to mention that there is a level 14 mechanical puppet king guarding. With the current power, there is no way to explore The order was issued, and the army did not hesitate to turn around and return immediately. On the way, Lear was still a little worried, so he asked the army to disperse on a larger scale to look for traces of the evil god worshippers. Finally, two more places were found for worshipping the evil god. There were hundreds of corpses in each place, all with pierced necks, forming a circle, facing the center. The time of the sacrifice was also within these two days. Although the sacrificial site was found, there was still no trace of the initiator. Finally, watching the sky gradually darken, Lear could only temporarily stop the search and lead the team back. Today's goal was to explore the ancient ruins. He triggered additional intelligence and learned the specific information of the ruins. He had achieved his goal. But the strange sacrifice he found on the way gave him more pressure.
He always felt that there was something hidden in the shadows. The vague danger made him feel more threatened.
