Chapter 1199: Mantis Oriole (Part 2)
Although the woman wanted to convince her companions, she just opened her mouth and said nothing, because the person, as the leader of this team, was very reasonable and at least more convincing than her words.
After seeing the woman having nothing to say, the leader no longer thought about it, turned around and jumped into the water, and others followed closely behind. The worried woman also got into the water after hesitating for a moment. However, before entering the water, she used more than a dozen protective magic weapons to protect her body tightly to ensure that she could withstand the possible fatal attacks when she encountered danger.
After the ten followers entered the water, they immediately found the breath that Wu Lie had left when he passed by in the water. This breath was not strong, but it was very obvious for these experienced followers. Soon the ten people followed this breath deep into the bottom of the water and swam towards the center of the Blood Sea Lake.
Although there are some huge fish giants in the Blood Sea Lake, these giants have no magic power and only physical strength. For the ten stalkers, no one can easily solve it. There is no danger. Compared with those giant beasts that look scary, those poisonous fish with a breath that is only the size of a palm-sized slap is much more dangerous. If the venom sprayed by this small fish touches the body, it will be very difficult for those famous Tiangong Wushu to completely clean it up.
Along the way, the group passed by the bottom of the lake almost without any danger. Although there were several times in the middle, in order to avoid the toxic fish school in front of the route, they had to take a detour and almost failed to follow the tracking traces in front of them, thus losing Wu Lie's whereabouts, but fortunately, Wu Lie was not afraid. Wu Lie thought he was safe and did not cover himself. The remaining aura was still strong and would not dissipate easily at the bottom of the lake.
Not long after, ten people followed Wu Lie along the intermittent residual trace and came to the ruins of Yecheng at the bottom of the lake.
Perhaps because of the mysterious power contained in Yecheng, the water quality in the city is much clearer than that in other places in Xuehai Lake. It is barely able to look down on the scenes in the distance through eyes. It does not require special connection spells and divine consciousness perception like the waters I have traveled before, so that we can determine the location of companions not far away and the situation of strange beasts in the lake.
"It's Yecheng!" Seeing the flooded city in front of him, the leader muttered involuntarily. Although he was just muttering in his heart, he passed it to his colleagues by using the magic of contacting his colleagues. Rather than talking to himself, it was better to say that he wanted to discuss with his colleagues what to do next. Should he continue to follow and enter the ruins of Yecheng, or should he stop and use other methods to surround Yecheng, and wait for the person he followed to come out of the city?
Compared with the locals in Qingzhou who only had a slight understanding of the situation of Blood Sea Lake, the people from Litian Palace all had a deep understanding of the Blood Sea Lake in Qingzhou. Because after the invasion of the evil gods outside the domain, the biggest casualties of the Litian Palace occurred in Xuehai Lake. Thirty-seven god-born soldiers from Zhongtian and more than one hundred elite soldiers from Tiangong were all lost here. Only the high-level officials of Zhongtian and the most god-lord of the heaven-held god know about the specific process before and after this incident, and the wicked soldiers from the lower realm, even those in the lower realm, just knew what the most god-born god ordered to do during this incident, with the purpose of taking something from this blood sea lake.
It is precisely because of such a huge number of casualties that many good people in the lower world are extremely curious about this. They completely ignored the forbidden forests and the unknown dangers of the Blood Sea Lake issued by Litian Palace and secretly sneaked into the Blood Sea Lake and explored the unknown secrets. In the end, they easily discovered the strangeness of the ruins of the Central Industry City of Xuehai Lake and also figured out the reasons why those people had such great casualties.
It is possible to imprison all mana and retain only physical strength. Such power may not be a big problem in other places, but it is a difficult problem to put it in water. Because even the person with good water nature cannot stay at the bottom of the water for a long time, and it requires breathing. Once he loses the blessing of mana and magic, and is entangled in the water by some strange beasts, unless he is a completely extraordinary existence like the Supreme God Lord, no matter how powerful a person is, he may have to wait for death.
After understanding the details of this matter, those who hear about it will naturally feel a little disappointed, because the result is not as shocking as they thought. To put it bluntly, all the dead died in a cowardly manner, and they all had extraordinary strength but were drowned by water. Therefore, for a long time, what happened in the Blood Sea Lake in Qingzhou became a joke after dinner.
However, while laughing at those drowned cowards, those who know about this are also very clear in their hearts. If they change positions, their result will probably be drowned in cowards, so Blood Sea Lake has become a forbidden place in the hearts of the deserted scholars in the Litian Palace.
The ten people present had heard of the ruins of Xuehai Lake, and although they had never seen them, they knew nothing less than others. Moreover, when they were assigned to Qingzhou this time, they had considered that they might come to Xuehai Lake. Based on the principle of being prepared for any incidents, they not only collected some information published by those who explored the ruins of Yecheng, but also prepared several utensils specially used for underwater operations.
"I've already arrived here, of course I have to continue." Several people passed the same decision to the leader at this time.
One person thanked: "Fortunately, those things were prepared in advance."
"You still need to be careful, those things have time limits." Another person also reminded appropriately.
But one of the responses of these people seemed special. This response came from the woman before. She used her divine thoughts to convey her thoughts and said, "I don't think we should go deeper. As we all know, all the power except physical strength will be imprisoned here, so that our advantage will be reduced by more than 90%. According to the information we collected, Wu Lie himself is also a very powerful body-refining powerhouse. Once we encounter it in the city, I am afraid..."
"Put on underwater equipment and set off." Before the woman could finish what she wanted to say, the leader made a decision. It was obvious that the cautiousness and caution shown by the woman in his eyes were all timid and fear. Although it was not easy to say now, deep down he had decided to wait until he returned to the lower realm, and he must report the performance of the woman and remove her from his team no matter what.
As the order was issued, everyone took out an arm-sized jar from the backpack behind them. The jar was connected to the Dharma door and the leather tube in one section, and at the end of the leather tube was a breathing cover with a special structure. This was a device recorded in a book from the Yuan Realm. It was taken to make it for some special environments, such as water, such as some areas surrounded by poisonous fog, etc. Because it was good to use, it became a must-have item for the soldiers of the Litian Palace to explore the wasteland.
Seeing that all the companions had changed into equipment, the woman couldn't say anything more. She also took out the equipment and replaced it, and took away the defensive magic weapons she had used before. At the same time, she took out a pair of water-dividing spunlaces made of special materials, followed the last, and swam into the urban area of Yecheng.
When they entered the boundary of Yecheng, they encountered the situation as described in the information they collected. The mana of their bodies was as if they were locked and could not move. The spells cast around them were also dispersed by an invisible force, and the only thing left was the power of their physical bodies. However, although they were well prepared, they missed a little when considering the problem, and this point seemed to have been deliberately not mentioned by those who had explored this place before. The missing point was that there was water pressure at the bottom of their water, and the water pressure here was much stronger than ordinary water.
When the effects of mana and spells disappeared from these people, they all felt an invisible force transmitted from the lake water covered by their bodies, giving them the illusion that they were simply squeezed by a pair of big hands.
The resistance formed by this water pressure is very great. Even if the suppressed people raise their hands, it takes a lot of effort. As for walking, it is even more difficult. For a moment, they all become as dull as wooden people because they did not immediately adapt to the changes in the surrounding environment.
"No! Retreat quickly!" After the leader of the ten people felt the impact of the surrounding environment on his body, he immediately felt a sense of crisis. He also thought of the reminder and warning from his previous female colleagues, so he made a decisive decision. When notifying his companions around him, he immediately made every effort to make a decision outside the outer city.
After hearing this order, the others around couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before making a retreating reaction. They had been so alert, and the woman at the back was almost at the same time that the leader made a decision, she had already retreated with all her strength.
Just as the woman left the city area of Yecheng halfway and her body's locked mana began to slowly recover, a figure suddenly rushed out between her and another companion who was about to leave the city. The figure seemed to be not affected by the surrounding environment at all, as flexible and fast as a swimming fish. Before everyone reacted, she rushed to the second-to-last who had not yet left the city. A silver light flashed and saw a brighter red spurt out from the man's neck.
Immediately afterwards, the figure passed by the other eight stalkers who did not leave the city and did not respond at an extremely fast speed. Every time a person passed by, a cold light flashed, and a blood-red horse squirted out of the man's neck.
