  But when YuanSu's barrier was gone, Jin, who didn't want to attract the attention of Bidis City, naturally had to put away the sandstorm. Looking at the flustered and exasperated young man, she smiled and said, "This is not an ideal battlefield after all. But before we meet again, can you tell me why you want to kill me?"

  Jin gritted his teeth: "Because I come from the Beaumont!"

  With that, Jin quickly left. At this time, the commotion in the Well of the Abyss had already attracted the attention of the Bidis City. After he memorized the words "Beaumont" in his mind, his figure flashed, and he had already borrowed the power of the Shadow Jump to swiftly leave the Well of the Abyss.

  The guards of the Bidis City would soon discover what was happening, but it didn't matter. Since Zero was already prepared, Jin would lure the guards away for him.

  As he approached the gold in the sandstorm, Zero quietly gave the young man a small gift.

  Chapter 397 - Fishing (I)

  [Xiao Chen is a bumpkin, he just got some advice from a master, so he started his own Weibo on Sina. There was a child's shoe fan that played on Sina Weibo, ]

  The circular shaped ice shards flew and swirled between his slender fingers and Alice continuously bounced between the bridge and the buildings. At the same time, he cut the ice shards out of the bridge and chased after the small figure that faintly appeared in the air.

  But no matter how hard Alice tried, he was unable to catch up to him. This was something that he could not do anything about, since Alice was not an expert in speed, and whether it was the Night Emissary or the Shadow Wanderer, both of them excelled in movement and speed. For those with limited abilities who wished to avoid battle, unless they used the environment or some other reason, Su, to erase their advantage in movements, would not be able to force them to a fight to the death.

  Yoru was facing this kind of awkward situation. Although Yoru's rank was lower than hers, but she was fully focused on avoiding the battle, and that unpredictable exercise made Alice's head hurt.

  The ice shard missed again. This thin yet sharp object had only cut Yoru's afterimage, while the real Yoru had already escaped a hundred meters away.

  The energy thread formed by the Dark Origin Su was intertwined in Yoru's hands. This was of the same nature as the Black Thread Cut that Bodon had previously used. Different from the previous situation, Bodon's Thread Cut was a one-time use product. After condensing Su into a line, it exploded out in a single breath, using disorderly attacks to cut its target with immense power. On the other hand, the energy thread in Yoru's hands, while not being as powerful as the Dark String Slash, was extremely durable and could change softness into toughness according to Yoru's wishes when necessary, becoming a weapon to kill enemies, or turning into the strings needed for the Death Tone.

  But just now, she had used the energy thread in her hand to continuously neutralize the energy of YuanSu's barrier in the air, in order to achieve a destructive effect. However, with this speed, it would not be easy for him to completely break through the barrier set up by Alice.

  As the ice shards swirled, Alice brought her arm together and was about to swing out the ice shards. Suddenly, she had a thought and frowned as she looked down at the Bidis City.

  From Alice's perception, Jin's barrier had already collapsed. At the same time, there were a number of energy reactions with varying strengths that were moving towards the battlefield of Gold. They should be the citizens of Bidis City.

  The ice stopped spinning and disappeared. Alice landed on the ground and said indifferently: "Big Sis won't play hide and seek with you anymore. Little Bunny, don't let Big Sis catch you the next time. Otherwise, Big Sis will definitely take off your clothes and cherish you a little. "

  Yoru appeared on a bridge as she corrected herself: "I'm not a little rabbit, my name is Yoru."

  "Stubborn kid." Alice shook her head, revealing an expression of having a headache. With a tap of her toes, she rapidly disappeared into the shadows of the buildings. The wind blew urgently, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the distance.

  Alice was flying between the bridge and the buildings. Not long later, another person suddenly appeared beside him.

  "Missed?" Alice asked.

  Jin's face was gloomy: "Don't ask me! I'm not in a good mood right now. "

  With that, he suddenly accelerated, passing by Alice's body. Alice chuckled and said, "All of the current brats have bad tempers."

  While flying, Alice caught up with Jin, glancing at his chest: What is that?

  King looked down and saw that his camouflage clothes had been cut open. He harrumphed and said, "It's nothing, just that the clothes were torn."

  "No, I mean, there seems to be something in your clothes."

  "What?" Jin suddenly stopped and tore open the hole in his shirt. He saw that there was something the size of a fingernail attached to his chest. As King ripped off his clothes, the little thing suddenly exuded an aura of energy, which continued to grow. Finally, there was a spark of light.

  On the plaza of Well of the Abyss, Chief Sacrificer and dozens of guards had already arrived. Looking at the sixteen elite warriors who were still alive, Chief Sacrificer's beautiful face was filled with haze. Just then, a dull explosion sounded above Bidis City. Chief Sacrificer raised his head and just happened to see a small flame bloom high in the sky.

  "Chase!" "Stop the invaders!" Using the language that only the subterranean race knew, the Chief Sacrificer spoke anxiously.

  As a result, the Bidis City sounded out long horn sounds. This was an alarm from the Earth City. At the sound of the alarm, the guards scattered throughout the city rushed in the direction of the flames, vowing to capture the daring intruder.

  But when the horn sounded, Zero found Yoru and called her back to the resting area of the caravan. Just as he entered the resting room, Zero heard shouts from outside, and at the same time, various piercing sounds sounded out. Thinking that it was the Bidis City's guards and Jin Yu who were fighting.

  Zero snickered. In the sandstorm, when Zero approached Gold and used the dagger to cut open his clothes, he shot out a small time-lapse bomb that was revealed by the energy device. In order to not let Jin find out, the might of the bomb was so small that it could be ignored, but the sound and flames it created was enough to attract the attention of the Bidis City.

  The truth was as expected, right now Jin and Alice were running in the direction of the exit as if their butts were on fire.

  Jin's face was pitch black, not because of his expression, but because his face was really charred by the flames. The time delay bombs that Lingcun produced were of limited power. Other than smearing his face black, they could not hurt a single hair on his body. However, the sound of the explosion and the flames attracted the Lamia scorpion man's attention. Especially Alice, who was behind her. Even though her face was tied up, everyone could still see the smile in the corner of her eyes.

  "Bastard!"

  A rock gun appeared in Jin's hands, and he threw an energy lance towards him from the left roof. At the same time, the rock gun threw it straight into the Lamia's abdomen, nailing it to the roof.

  Seeing that the warriors on the other side had died miserably, the scorpion man who were chasing behind them lifted up the things in their hands like cannons. After a simple aim, they shot out a ray of energy from their cannons. Streams of energy beams shot through the air and headed straight for Jin's back.

  Alice suddenly inserted the metal blade into the energy light and her delicate hand drew a circle in front of her, instantly forming a circular shield. When the energy rays hit the ice shield, they were all reflected back. The seemingly weak and weak streams of light, every time they fell on a target, would silently erode a shallow hole in the building and the rock wall.

  At this time, Jin continued to use his rock gun and Earth Tooth, these low level abilities to force away the nearby guards. However, there were many guards in the Bidis City, and whether it was the La
mia or the scorpion man, they all had the ability to move about in any terrain. They either flew on the walls or suspended themselves under the complicated overpass, using all sorts of environments as cover to attack Jin and Alice.

  Under such pursuit, the two of them ran while fighting. Finally, they reached the ramp leading to the ground. "Open the door," Jin suddenly said. "I'll cut off the rear!"

  Alice was not courteous, although the two of them were of high rank, it would be dangerous if they were to be entangled by the city guards. Moreover, after the Well of the Abyss's situation was exposed, Alice could feel that at the bottom of this Earth City, there were three powerful auras that she had no choice but to pay attention to. That should be an expert from the Bidis City, Alice would never believe a person as powerful as him without a suitable expert to guard them.

  If the two of them were to be entangled by the guards and attacked by powerful non-humankind beings, the chances of the two of them surviving would plummet. Therefore, Alice twisted her body and increased her speed, leaving Jin far behind.

  King stopped, turned, and faced the enemy swarming behind him. He groaned and raised his right arm. He opened his golden palm wide and forcefully retracted it. Immediately, the bridge connecting the city and the ramp began to shake violently. With a loud shout from Jin, the bridge broke in half and the bridge cracked open. Together with a dozen guards, the bridge fell into the abyss.

  For a moment, the broken bridge was crowded with guards. The Lamia threw her own energy spear, while the scorpion man continued to fire chaotically at their opponents. However, once the Sky Bridge was broken, they were unable to continue their pursuit. Jin seized the opportunity to retreat, causing the guards' attacks to miss.

  At the exit, as Alice dashed forward, she pointed her finger at the ground and ice immediately formed beneath her feet and spread like a snake. When they arrived at the exit, they saw a thick, sharp ice protruding from the ground, directly piercing through the ancient tree bark that acted as a door. After piercing through the tree bark, the ice shards suddenly exploded again, enlarging the hole that had been torn open.

  This Frost Blade was originally a two phase attack skill that would explode after stabbing into the target's body. Now, it was a good idea to use it to break out of the target's body. Although the bark of the ancient tree was tough, it could not withstand the stabbing and bursting of the ice blades. Hearing the footsteps coming from far away, Alice did not stop and jumped up while stepping on the remnants of the ice shards. Then, she suddenly sprung up and jumped out of the hole created by the ice blades.

  Immediately, a cold wind blew over.

  Alice landed on the ground and rolled. When she stood up again, she saw that Jin had also jumped out from the hole. The two of them exchanged a glance before shaking their heads and smiling bitterly. Then, they turned around and left.

  No matter how dark the night was, there would always be a time when it would pass. The next morning, when Zero woke up, the old man and the others were already dressed and ready to go to the square to pick up the goods and leave. It wasn't appropriate to say that he was waking up. Zero did not sleep. He only allowed his body to rest, but his thoughts were still active. Last night, the Bidis City was not quiet. Even after that unfamiliar assassin had left, there were still guards patrolling the city.

  Several of the guards came to the caravan's resting area, but they seemed to have received some kind of order and did not alarm the caravan. With his eyes closed, he could feel the guard's gaze sweeping through the crowd of merchants. This should be a search for the intruders, but in the end, this kind of work was naturally futile.

  Taking advantage of the time when he was dozing off with his eyes closed, Zero accelerated the activation of the cells, allowing the wound left by Jin to quickly heal. In his battle against Jin, he had only suffered a few superficial wounds. For him, these wounds were enough to heal himself in one night. As it turned out, he was right. By now, the wounds on his skin had completely healed without any signs of damage.

  To Zero's surprise, the caravan quickly received the black gold from the dwarven supervisor. Thus, under the lead of a Lamia Warrior, the caravan set off, leaving the Bidis City along another path with buckets of oil. What the Bidis City did not know was that the caravan was not only bringing away Black Gold, but also some other things.

  The image of the caravan leaving was reflected in a pair of black gem-like eyes. This was a tall man, nearly five meters tall, much taller than ordinary scorpion man Warriors. It had muscles as hard as steel, and the lines of its muscles were even more complex than the strongest human men. If placed on the dissecting table, they would find that the muscle fiber in the Subterranean Clan were also more complicated than humans.

  A head of unruly hair like fire, also from one side of the owner's temperament. This overly tall male Subterranean Clan's lower body was not constructed like a scorpion, but instead had a lobster-like body. Three pairs of thick pincers grew out from its jointed body, supporting the male Subterranean Clan's majestic body.

  In its hand, it held a warhammer that was as tall as its head. The surface of the warhammer was covered with sharp spikes. One could imagine, when this weapon hit the opponent, it would bring more than just the destruction caused by the blunt force. This warhammer did not have any energy aura, it looked more like a large piece of metal, but it made people feel that it was rough and wild.

  The Subterranean Clan pointed to the caravan and said, "Esteemed Sacrificial length, are you going to let these humans leave just like that? It was obvious that the invaders last night were humans as well. They definitely had something to do with this Pavaric caravan. Otherwise, it will be impossible to explain the time coincidence! "

  "Huo Xian, brave long guard, my friend. We do not have evidence to suggest that the intruders are related to the people of the Pavaric. Just a mere Pavaric isn't enough to scare you, but don't forget, those humans have our secrets in their hands. If they reveal our existence, how many greedy humans will come. When my Wang Naga is about to fully recover, I really cannot allow any mistakes to occur, even if it is just a small mistake. "

  Just like a combination between a woman and a spider, Chief Sacrificer softly voiced out the concerns in his heart.

  Just then, another Subterranean Clan walked out from beside the Chief Sacrificer. Its appearance was similar to that of the lowest level of dwarves. However, this dwarf was countless years old. Her beard reached her feet and extended towards the ground. To be seen, one could not help but fear that it would step on one's beard and fall down. With one hand behind her back, the Old Dwarf was leaning on a walking stick with the other.

  The cane was about ten meters tall. Judging from its texture, it seemed to be carved out of some kind of special stone. Thread like patterns covered the rod from top to bottom. At the end of the staff was a fist-sized crystal stone. The crystal was emitting a light purple energy. From time to time, one or two rays of energy would leak out from the crystal and pass by the spiral patterns on the rod, extending to the ground before dispersing into a ring.

  The Old Dwarf leaning on his crystal staff said with an aged voice, "Esteemed Sacrificial length, there is already a human spying on our Well of the Abyss. Maybe it's time for us to migrate. "

  Chief Sacrificer sighed slightly, and said: "Morson, the length of wisdom. My, Wang Naga's, complete genetic complement has already reached 94%. If we were to move at this time, all of our efforts would have been for naught. "

  Old Dwarf's eyes darkened as he said in a deep voice, "Greedy wolves can already smell the delicious fresh meat. If we don't leave, we have to be prepared to deal with these wolves."

  long guard took a deep breath, and his voice sounded like thunder. He raised his hammer and shouted, "If the human race dares to invade our homeland, I will make sure that they will never return!"

  With that, every corner of the Bidis City had Snake Lady scorpion man holding up his weapon. The shouts of "Come, come, come!" rose and f
ell, forming a huge sound wave that engulfed the entire Earth City!

  Chapter 398 - Fishing (II)

  "That's the basic situation."

  Inside Charon's villa in Pavaric, in the hall which was temporarily expropriated as the fighting Command post, Zero reported the general situation of the Bidis City to Biansi, Chalod and Austin, as well as the officers of the various families. Due to two assassins appearing out of nowhere and interfering with the operation, Zero was unable to bring back the detailed map. However, with his exceptional memory, Zero still told everyone in the hall the outline of the Bidis City, the levels and abilities of the warriors.

  When they heard that the Lamia scorpion man used energy-type weapons and that the Bidis City had a three-dimensional structure, both Chalod and Austin did not have much of a reaction, but the military officers beneath them all had heavy expressions.

  One of the military officers sighed, "Let's not talk about the physique of this alien warrior. Just by looking at the fact that they are able to use energy-tier weapons, their civilization may be different from us humans, but their technology is not inferior in the slightest. In terms of combat power alone, an ordinary soldier equipped with an energy weapon was equivalent to a low-level esper. An army formed by low-level experts, and relying on the complicated three-dimensional city, if we want to fight in a place like this, even if we can win, the price would be huge. "

  The officer spoke out the thoughts of the veterans on the battlefield, and they all echoed his words. At this moment, even if Chalod and Austin were strangers, they could tell that the battle was not going to end well.
