Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Golden Crow Temple

The eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan looked at us standing in front of him with an extremely ugly expression.One hundred middle-level fighters plus masters like me and Tie Xiong, only twenty of them came back, and besides me, none of them was uninjured.This made him feel very ashamed. He thought that he could easily wipe out the Ratmen with just a few fingers, and get back the Nine Profound Turtle Orb within a day, but he never thought that he would come back repeatedly. There are endless traps and various monsters on the territory of the Ratmen. I suspect that these monsters of all shapes and sizes are raised by the Ratmen as food, but they became obstacles when the Fantasy Stars invaded. The best weapon for Phantasmal Starmen.

Especially the giant alien ant we met. Its greenish body continuously emits poisonous gas. Its huge body is protected by a hard shell, which makes it invulnerable. It also has scissor-like sharp teeth about one meter long.We solved it at the cost of the lives of fifteen mid-level fighters. The ants and insects of the different species occupy a favorable location, the space in the cave is narrow, and there are many traps. The mid-level fighters can't hide at all, and they can't distance themselves from the ants and insects. Therefore, they inevitably inhale poisonous gas, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced, and they eventually become alien ants. insect prey.

If you are in an open field or valley, you only need to keep a distance from the ants and insects, and you can kill them with concentrated firepower from a distance. Unfortunately, the battlefield is in a narrow cave. After returning without success twice and losing a large number of soldiers, the eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan did not dare to send anyone down anymore.Unless he was willing to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates, fill up all traps with human sea tactics, and destroy all the monsters raised by the Ratmen.What's more, the passages of the Ratman tribe extend in all directions, which looks like a maze. It is obviously impossible to catch the patriarch of the Ratmen tribe in a short time.

The eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan looked livid and did not speak. The Frog Clan, the head of the Imperial Guard, approached him and whispered, "Although the Rat People are cunning, as long as we blow up the entire Huanping Mountain Range, forgive them. There is no way to escape." I was shocked, the idea was so vicious.If the Huanping Mountain Range is completely blown apart, not only will none of the Ratmen be able to escape, but the hundreds of millions of creatures on the mountain will also be doomed. The eldest prince of the Xuangui clan was silent, but his eyes lit up when he listened to the suggestion of the head of the imperial guards, and he seemed quite moved.

I was shocked. It only needed enough energy to blow up the entire Huanping Mountain Range, and there was no need to worry about any casualties.Although the Ratmen are famous for their many skilled craftsmen who are good at making weapons, due to the limitations of their living environment, it is impossible for the Ratmen to develop large weapons that can compete with warships.As long as the eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan nods, the Ratman Clan will be finished immediately. I was very anxious, I was really afraid that the eldest prince of the Xuangui clan would be tempted and agreed, but I knew that he didn't come here to destroy the rat people, his goal was the Jiuxuan turtle beads in the hands of the rat people, I took a deep breath and decided to go from here Jiuxuan Guizhu persuaded him.

I took a step forward and stood side by side with the head of the Imperial Guards and said: "When my brothers and I entered the territory of the Ratmen, we saw a gap in the cave of the Ratmen, leading to the bottomless underground. I saw it too. Even if we didn’t blow up the Jiuxuan Guizhu into powder when we bombed the Huanping Mountains, what if the Jiuxuan Guizhu was accidentally thrown into the bottomless gap by some ratman during the bombing If you are swept away by the underground river, the king will regret it." The eldest prince of the Xuangui tribe kept nodding, and seemed to agree with my words. Who can guarantee that the Jiuxuan Guizhu will not be pulverized by the powerful firepower of the battleship?In case the Jiuxuan Turtle Bead falls into the unfathomable abyss, even if the turtle bead is detected by the induction between blood vessels, how can it be taken out?The more precious the Jiuxuan Guizhu was to him, the less he dared to do it easily.

The head of the imperial guards was very dissatisfied with the approval of the eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan, and he said: "My lord, as long as you use intensive firepower to completely blast the territory of the Ratmen, and then send people to catch the Ratmen as quickly as possible." Patriarch, we will definitely know the whereabouts of Jiuxuan Guizhu from the patriarch of the Ratman clan." The eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan said: "The last time we attacked Renyan City, we suffered heavy losses and lost thousands of warships. We had to guard against the counterattack of the Houyi Stars in Renyan City, so we have to preserve our strength and energy. The Huanping Mountains will consume half of our energy reserves, not to mention, I am bound to get the Nine Profound Turtle Orb, so I can't take this risk."

Now that the eldest prince of the Xuangui tribe has settled the matter, the head of the imperial guards naturally shut up and dared not mention the matter of blowing up the Huanping mountain range. He just stared at me resentfully, as if I had stolen the favor of the king from him. The eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan suddenly looked at me sullenly and said, "What can you do?" "Me?" I said in astonishment, "I haven't figured out a good way to kill two birds with one stone yet." He snorted coldly: "Really? You saved a rat man from me that day."

I hurriedly explained: "That was just an accident, you know that the Feathermen and the Ratmen have always been related..." He said forcefully: "Then take advantage of the relationship between you, and you go and convey my conditions to the Ratmen, and hand over the Jiuxuan Guizhu to keep them safe forever." I bit the bullet and said, "What if they don't agree?" He showed his fierceness and said: "The entire Houyi Star will belong to our Fantasia Stars, let alone a small rat tribe? If I don't agree, I can only take risks and destroy them." I sighed: "As you can see, we don't know where the Ratmen have moved. If they don't come out, I can't find them."

He said gloomyly: "If you can't find them, I'm afraid I might vent my grievances on the Feathermen. You will be given three days to find the Ratmen and convey my conditions. The Feather people are all wiped out." After speaking, all the battleships roared away except for me who was thrown into the battleship. I stayed in mid-air and sighed helplessly. I was seen by the Ratmen when Iron Bear and I rushed into the territory of the Ratmen with a hundred mid-level fighters. A nest of snakes and rats.In this special case, this cognition is probably certain.After thinking about it again and again, I finally had to admit that if we want to save the Ratmen and Feathermen, we can only let Long Yuan come here earlier.

I sighed again, and flew close to the valley where I hid the battleship.After I got in touch with Long Yuan, as soon as I explained the current situation, Long Yuan said decisively: "My Houyi star royal family rules hundreds of races in Houyi star, so naturally we should take on the responsibility of protecting them, not to mention the Ratman race It will be of great help for us to manufacture advanced warships in the future, and I will save them no matter what." I was relieved to get Long Yuan's affirmative answer. Leaving the valley, I flew around the Huanping Mountains again, but I didn't see a ratman, nor did I sense the Jiuxuan Guizhu.I decided to go back to Eagle Town to find the Ratmen who dug the tunnel for us first, and see if I can get them to take me to Shanhua. When I returned to Eagle Town, I found that the children were all right, and the ratmen who dug the tunnel were still there, so I told these ratmen what happened today, and they were all terrified and burst into tears.At the moment, the tunnel digging operation also stopped, Long Yuan will bring the army over soon, there is no need to dig tunnels anymore. The Ratmen cried for a while, and then decided to go back to their own tribe to live and die with their own tribe.So I left Eagle Town with them. The little dog wolf and minnow are still in Eagle Town to prevent any accidents to the feathered children in the town during this special period. At the same time, I also ordered the children to stay in the town and not go out. The Huanping Mountains were bombed, and there must be other Phantasy Star warriors guarding there. I advise the Ratmen to return to their clan through other passages. Several hours later, it was already dark, and the Ratmen and I finally arrived at the safe entrance mentioned by the chief guard of Shan Hua.This is a place in the valley that looks like a beast's lair, and it looks familiar. As the Ratmen went deeper into the cave, I suddenly remembered that there was a time when the Phantasm Starmen harassed Birdman Town, and we fled here with Mayor Bai. For the first time, I always felt that this cave was artificially repaired. Without thinking too much, I walked in from a hidden hole deep underground with the impatient Ratmen. The passage is not too small, I can barely follow behind the ratmen, and there is a touch of moisture in the air.We made our way through two pristine subterranean caverns and finally entered a repaired stone-paved passage. Soon, we met the nervous Ratmen guards, who were taken aback by our presence, thinking that the Phantasmals had come in. The Ratmen were let in, but I was guarded as an intruder.Although I can knock down all eight Ratmen guards in front of me with just a single move, but doing so will only deepen the misunderstanding.Facing the eight ratmen who were staring at me angrily, I didn't try to explain, but just stood quietly and waited. I think Shanhua will definitely come when she knows I have appeared.Alas, the most worrying thing happened. They regarded me as an accomplice of the Phantasy Stars. After a long time, a rat man hurried over and said that the patriarch wanted to see me. I was escorted by the rat-human guards to meet Shan Hua. However, Shanhua doesn't seem to be in this small town of Ratmen. I watched without any resistance as they chained my hands and wings, and then I was escorted by the guards of the Ratman chief to where Shanhua is now. The place. The guards of the six patriarchs rode on weird pangolin-like and ant-like monsters, and escorted me forward quickly. The passage gradually widened, and the air on all sides gradually dried up. The passage and the caves passed by seemed to have been painstakingly sorted out, and the number of guards gradually increased. I felt that the place I was going to might be the heartland of the rat people. Turning around an intersection, the eyes suddenly lit up, and the tops of two large stone pillars were burning with raging flames, illuminating the surrounding space. In front of me was a very ancient looking stone gate. The stone gate was very tall, with a fiery red sun painted in the middle, which was emitting strong light to the surroundings. In front of the stone gate, there were twelve solemn looking guards, fully armed. Just as the guards who escorted me were negotiating with the guards standing guard here, there was a "creaking" sound, and the stone gate suddenly split into two from the middle, and slowly moved to the two sides. I ran over. The Ratman guard subconsciously wanted to stop him, but found that it was Shanda who came. Shanda rushed towards me, suddenly stopped in front of me, and shouted angrily: "I still regard you as my idol, why did you join forces with the fantasy stars to kill us ratmen? Why?" All around was quiet, only his angry voice was heard.I smiled helplessly and said: "Undercover is really a technical job, being an undercover is always thankless." He said in amazement: "What undercover agent?" I said: "I don't have time to explain it so clearly. In short, you only need to know that I am not the person you think. I agreed to be the guy of the Xuangui clan because of my difficulties. I am going to see your father right now." , I have something important to tell him." Shanda excitedly stepped forward to hug me and said, "I knew you were not a bad person. I told my father a long time ago that you are not that kind of person." This time it was my turn to be surprised, and I said in amazement, "You trust me so much?" He nodded excitedly and said: "I believe in you, I would have died without you, I will take you to see my father now." Shanda pulled me to leave, and suddenly found that my hands and wings were locked with thick iron chains. He shouted to the guards escorting me: "Don't open his iron chains yet! Such heavy Chains, do you want to exhaust him to death?" All the guards looked embarrassed, and one of them said bravely: "He is very powerful, we locked him up because we are afraid that he will hurt the patriarch." But Shanda ignored them, and said loudly: "Hmph, I don't believe that he will hurt us, let him untie it!" Although this iron chain looks shocking, it cannot withstand my strength, as long as I want, I can break it at any time.I said: "This weight is nothing to me. Let's go to see your father first. As long as your father asks them to open the chain, they will definitely obey." Shanda hesitated for a moment, then looked at me, and I shook my hands at him, indicating that it was easy.So Shanda stopped talking and led me forward. After walking for a while, I felt something different. Looking around, above and below, there is a vast space and rich decoration, which is not comparable to a simple cave.Could this be the palace of the rat people? The wide and flat ground is paved with carefully selected and polished stones, extending downward at an inclined angle, enough for twelve or three people of my size to walk side by side.The walls on both sides are decorated with ancient and simple murals, and I can feel the vicissitudes of life keenly. This palace seems to have existed for a long, long time. We walked quietly, through one promenade after another, through one exquisite ornate hall after another. It seems that everything here is related to the Golden Crow. Could it be that this is the palace left by the ancient Golden Crow warriors?The scale of the project here is huge and beautiful, and it is absolutely impossible for the Ratmen to complete the construction in just a few hundred years.What's more, to build such a huge palace, it is even more impossible to hide it from the feathered people who are close by. More importantly, the ancient, desolate, and mysterious atmosphere exuded by this palace and the murals exuding the atmosphere of alien civilization can be seen everywhere, as well as the bottles that have not been cleaned up in the corners of some halls I passed by. Bottles and jars, all this shows that the ratmen may only have discovered this place recently. Finally, I saw Shanhua in an unusually wide hall with a height of more than ten meters. Shanhua sits on the throne at the top of the main hall. The throne is very big, while Shanhua is small, which is a bit funny.Around the main hall stood some seven or eight meter high sword-wielding warriors carved out of huge stones, which looked a bit like the legendary Golden Crow Warrior. Shan Hua's face was gloomy, and when she saw me, she stood up from the throne, jumped up and cursed: "You still have the face to come to see me, you traitor!" I said calmly: "I am not a traitor, I just want to tell you the conditions that the eldest prince of the Xuangui clan asked me to bring to you." Shan Hua pointed at me and cursed: "Lan Hu, you still say you are not a traitor! Not a traitor, why didn't the Fantastic Stars kill you? Not a traitor, why did the Fantastic Stars ask you to negotiate with me? Not a traitor, how could you cooperate with me? The Phantasm Stars rushed into the territory of our Ratmen? Huh, I have nothing to talk to the Phantasy Stars, our Ratmen are not easy to bully, as many as they come, I will kill as many as they come!" Shan Hua was very emotional, of course, anyone who has been hit by a double blow of surprise and betrayal would probably be like this. I increased my voice and said: "Do you think that you can defeat them by repelling the Phantasmal Stars once by virtue of the location? Wake up! As long as the Phantasm Stars blow up the Huanping Mountains completely, you have no hope at all! You think that The arrogant traps, as well as the weird monsters raised, are useless at all! You can’t even touch a hair of the fantasy star!" Shan Hua was stunned, and murmured: "They want to blow up the entire Huanping Mountain Range? It's impossible, it's impossible..." I said: "Why is this impossible? Blowing up the entire Huanping Mountain Range will only consume more energy. They have enough energy and time to do this." Shan Hua suddenly said forcefully: "Even if they blow up the entire Huanping Mountain Range, I'm not afraid..." I interrupted him and said, "You want to use the palace left behind by the Golden Crow warriors to fight against the fantasy stars?" Shan Hua was shocked, looked straight at me and shouted: "How do you know this is the Golden Crow Temple? How do you know?" I said, "It doesn't matter how I know, what matters is that I am not a traitor." So I told him that I was a soldier under King Yi of Renyan City, and I came here to investigate the reality of the fantasy star military fortress, and then told him the situation of Longyuan. Shan Hua half-believingly said: "You mean that your King Yi's army has been canonized by the royal family, and you came here under the order of King Yi to investigate the reality of the fantasy stars?" Before I could answer, Shanda was already cheering from the sidelines. I said: "The eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan once sent thousands of warships to attack us. After we repelled the fantasy stars, I followed them all the way from Renyan City to observe them, and tried to find out the strength of the military fortress. Prepare for King Yi's counterattack against the Fantasy Stars. In view of the dangerous situation faced by the Ratmen and Feathermen, I have contacted King Yi, and King Yi will soon send troops to support us and attack the Fantasy Stars. But King Yi's army is here It takes time, and we need to delay the time until King Yi's army arrives." Shan Hua pondered for a while, then pondered: "Then what should we do?" I said: "The purpose of the eldest prince of the Xuangui clan to attack the rat people is for one thing." Shan Hua asked eagerly, "What is it?" "Nine Profound Turtle Beads!" Shan Hua's complexion suddenly changed! I didn't believe that the Ratmen had the Nine Profound Turtle Orb, but the change in Shan Hua's face convinced me of it.I said: "As long as I can bring this Nine Profound Turtle Orb back to them, it will definitely be delayed for a while." Shan Hua's expression kept changing. I feel something is wrong, why does he value Jiuxuan Guizhu so much? "I can't give it to him!" An abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the hall. I looked in the direction of the sound in surprise, only to see Mayor Bai walking out from behind the throne with a blank expression. Mayor Bai pointed at me and said: "You are not from our Yuren tribe at all. When did our Yuren tribe see you so tall? You must be a ferocious Yuren on the Fantasy Star, and they came to invade our Houyi together with the Fantasy Star people. Star! It's not that easy to cheat our Jiuxuan Guizhu away!" I looked at him in astonishment, never expecting that old man Bai would appear here. He held an iron box in his left hand and slowly opened it with his right hand. I immediately had a strong feeling that there were Jiuxuan Guizhu in the iron box! He squeezed out the Jiuxuan Turtle Bead with three fingers, and an inexplicable liquid was dripping from the turtle bead, like blood.It's really incredible that blood can block our sense of Jiuxuan Guizhu. Old Man Bai walked up to Shan Hua, and said in a low voice, "We will succeed soon! As long as we can revive the most powerful ancestor, the Golden Crow God of War, what are mere fantasy stars?" A flash of light flashed in Shan Hua's eyes, she stood up quickly and said, "Lan Hu is a traitor! Keep him under strict guard, if he is dishonest, kill him!" Shan Hua turned her head to look at me again and said, "Lan Hu, do you think I don't know that the Phantasm Stars are searching for Jiuxuan Guizhu to revive their ancestor god? I won't let you succeed, you traitor!" I stared blankly at the two of them, under the protection of the guards, and left directly from an exit next to the main hall. Shanda shouted hoarsely from behind: "Father, he is not a traitor! Don't kill him, let him go!" I hesitated, should I break the iron chain on my body, catch up and snatch the Jiuxuan Guizhu?If I do this, there will definitely be conflicts. In this underground space, it is difficult for me to guarantee that I will not accidentally injure the Ratman. But if he didn't hand over the Jiuxuan Guizhu to the eldest prince of the Xuangui Clan, he would definitely not let it go. There was a 99% possibility that he would have someone blow up the Huanping Mountain Range immediately. I thought that if I took out one more of the two Nine Profound Turtle Beads I had hidden and gave it to the eldest prince of the Xuan Turtle Clan, it might be delayed for a while, but it might be too late now. The old man Bai resolutely took the Jiuxuan Guizhu out of the iron box, as if he was going to do something earth-shattering with Shan Hua. Once the Jiuxuan Guizhu lost its shield, the eldest prince of the Xuangui clan would definitely be able to sense the Jiuxuan Guizhu here Strong energy fluctuations.
