Tomb Raiders: Sign in from obtaining a special status

Page 204

"These big wall skewers seem to be a little bit different."

"Before the blood came out, it behaved completely differently from the rest of the walls, and even showed a slight desire to attack."

"And when the blood was exposed to the air, the desire to attack disappeared instantly, replaced by fear."

"A fear that's exactly the same as a normal wall skewer."

"Is it because of the mutation that shielded or interfered with the perception system of these big wall stringers?"

"Let them not be as sensitive to danger as Xiaoqiang Chuanzi?"

"White puppet, try!"

The white puppet squeezed twice between the middle fingers, and when the blood condensed into a complete drop, it was thrown out directly.

The point where its direction falls is exactly where Daqiang Chuanzi is located.

When the blood was flying, Daqiang Chuanzi retreated quickly as if he had seen a ghost. After pulling away a certain distance and making sure that he would not be attacked, he stayed where he was, motionless.

It's like turning into a sculpture.

"It still retains the habit of being a wall stringer. It will run away when it is in danger, and it will stop when the danger is gone."

"Wia, who can perceive the difference between the upper and lower ranks of the precious blood, behaves no differently from the ordinary wall stringer when the blood appears."

"It seems that this is the Zhang family's design."

"It is used to defend against outsiders. If ordinary people come, Qiang Chuanzi will kill them immediately, and when the time is ripe, the corpse will be corrupted to a certain extent before devouring them."

"But the Zhang family is different. Intermarriage within the family guarantees the purity of Qilin's blood."

"This has led to the bloodline of most Zhang family members having the ability to repel insects."

"There is no disadvantage here. Where others keep secrets, it is like walking on the ground in front of the Zhang family. The so-called guarding the bronze gate should roughly be like this."

"Let's go, don't focus on here, as long as we don't fall into the crack because of slippery feet, we won't encounter any danger."

"Master Bai, what do you mean, here, we, or people with special blood, will hardly be in danger?"

"Who told you that?"

"Master Bai, it's you. Didn't you say that the Zhang family will guard this place! They have a special bloodline, and these bugs are afraid of them."

"Even if a big wall is approaching, you just need to keep the blood in the air."

"Doesn't this mean that as long as you have special precious blood, you can basically guarantee your own safety?"

"...Have you ever thought that the environment here is a paradise for wall stringers, why the number of these wall stringers has never shown explosive growth?"

"Could it be because the temperature outside is low? Can't you get out of these walls?"

"No, in the tomb passage, above the dome, there are also wall strings that are so secretive, but we came at a better time, during the day, and the mobility of these wall strings is relatively weak."

"The internal living environment is so superior, and the adaptability of the bugs is very strong. According to what you said, outside, there must be dead wall stringers."

"But we didn't find out."

"It shows that the number of these wall stringers is always controlled within a certain scale."

"What do you think is controlling the number of these wall clusters? Is it a volcanic eruption? Is it the freezing temperature outside?"

Bai Jing's explanation made Bai Puppet fall into deep thought.

Finally, Bai Puppet asked Bai Jing tentatively,

"Master Bai, what do you mean, these wall skewers are just the lowest level of food here?"

"Being able to control the number of these wall 187 skewers, how many of these wall-eating creatures should there be?"

The white puppet was frightened by his guess.

With such an abundance of food, it is hard for them to imagine how many natural enemies these wall stringers have.

You must know that in the biological world, hunters and prey are interchangeable.

Eagles eat snakes, cats catch mice, but when the prey changes enough and becomes bigger, the relationship between them often reverses.

There are quite a few of these wall stringers, and some of them are as large as two meters, or even three meters in length.

Being able to hunt in such an environment shows that the opponent is also a top predator.

In an environment where food is so plentiful, there are only two options on the predator's side.

First, very top predators, unconventional creatures, such as zongzi and so on.

Second, there are a large number of top-notch creatures that restrain the wall, such as bugs, such as some tomb guard beasts.

This Fengshui boundary, the place where the Kunlun fetus was born, has some strange creatures, it doesn't seem too strange.

"Master Bai, the guns in our hands..."

"What? Are you worried that you don't have enough bullets?"

"Hey, there must be something to worry about. Although we don't have a shortage of weapons, I'm afraid we don't have enough bullets."

"If you can't beat it, just run. The Zhang family can pass smoothly, why? Your skills are not as good as the Zhang family's?"

.......

Chapter 270 The Entrance of the Heavenly Palace, the Human-faced Owl

There were five people taking turns to release the precious blood, and the journey was very smooth. Before the dawn outside, everyone came to a cliff.

"Master Bai, there is no way out."

Following the faint light of the fire, Bai Jing couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the scene under the cliff:

"It's really hard to imagine how this large tomb was built during the Xia and Shang Dynasties."

"Xia Shang? Master Bai, isn't this Dong Xia's tomb?"

After hearing Bai Jing's words, the sixth child asked suspiciously.

The third child glanced at the bewildered sixth child, and explained:

"Look at the layout here, and the ice corpses before we entered the tomb."

"Although the style here seems to be closely related to the Ming Dynasty, the exceptions all reveal the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty."

"But if you look carefully, you can find that this is actually a large tomb from the Xia and Shang Dynasties."

"No, third brother, don't fool me. I have been to both the big and small holy peaks, and I have also carefully observed the main tomb."

"It's the structure of the Ming Dynasty, whether it's materials or style."

"Right now, it's even more so, proper Ming style."

"There is also ice burial. I admit that the residents living at the foot of Changbai Mountain believe in shamanism and have the custom of ice burial."

"Some of the corpses inside may be people who were buried in ice thousands of years ago."

"However, none of this proves that this is an ancient tomb from the Xia and Shang Dynasties!"

"unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless there is an ancient tomb here, which is from the Xia and Shang Dynasties, King Wannu of the Eastern Xia Dynasty rebuilt it on the basis of this ancient tomb, thus forming the current tomb."

"Master Bai, am I right?"

Bai Jing didn't speak, but the third child took the words and said:

"Exactly. First of all, you have to make one thing clear, that is, with Dongxia's national strength, it is impossible to build such a large-scale project."

"Secondly, don't you think the situation here is rather strange? The gnat is the creature at the bottom of the food chain here."

"What are the creatures and murals that we have seen the most along the way?"

"It's a centipede, that is, a wall stringer."

"Regardless of the funeral tomb or the royal tomb, there are a lot of records about centipedes engraved on the murals."

"It shows that the status of centipedes in Eastern Xia is very high. It can even be said that the status of centipedes in Eastern Xia is almost the same as that of our Chinese dragons."

"But here, it is only the lowest end of the biological chain, don't you find it strange?"

The third child was still explaining when he saw a black shadow flying towards him, and its target happened to be directed at the third child.

The speed is so fast, even in the bright place, everyone in this team may not be able to react.

What's more, the light here is so dim, and at such a fast speed, they can't have the time to reflect.

"Be careful, hey, forget it!"

The reminder is useless, because as the black shadow gradually approaches, Bai Jing has gradually discovered what the black shadow is.

A strange bird with a height of nearly one meter and a wingspan of nearly five meters,

This bird is shaped like an owl with a human face and a pheasant body with a dog tail, very similar to the human-faced owl in myths and legends.

The records of such creatures in myths and legends are signs of drought.

The earliest record on this aspect is from the Xia and Shang Dynasties.

Although the speed of this human-faced owl is fast, Bai Jing's speed is even faster, and his hands are like steel hooks.

It directly blocked the path of the human-faced owl.

Even if the human-faced owl is adapting to the sky, how to adapt to the darkness and flight.

At such a fast speed and within such a short distance, it is very difficult to change direction.

The double-winged Megatron, the human-faced owl seems to be making the final adjustments, preparing to stay away from this person who makes it feel mortal threat.

That Bai Jing who stretched out his hand like a steel hook.

Compared with humans, creatures have the greatest advantage in wildness.

The wild instinct allows it to appear instinctively when it encounters danger, especially when it encounters fatal danger.

and make corresponding adjustments.

Nature is cruel, the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest.

Even the human-faced owl, which is a top predator, has to follow this principle.

But the human-faced owl still ignored Bai Jing's speed and strength.

Is it possible to avoid Bai Jing by temporarily adjusting the position?

When the human-faced owl adjusted its direction, Bai Jing also made corresponding adjustments almost at the same time.

The two move almost simultaneously.

Hula!There was the sound of crackling bird feathers beating the ground.

The people who had just heard Bai Jing's reminder, and the tomb robbery team who hadn't had time to make a breakthrough in the future, suddenly discovered that Bai Jing was holding a strange bird in his hand at some point.

The sound of crackling wings beating the ground, and the wings, which are nearly five meters long together, create gusts of wind.

The people who hadn't had time to prepare in the future were thrown off their feet by the wind.

If it weren't for the white puppet's quick eyesight and quick hands, someone might fall into the cliff at this moment.

". "Be honest, or I'll kill you!"

Bai Jing's words seemed to have a special magical power, and the human-faced owl who was still rambunctious in Bai Jing's hands was now as cute as a baby.

Even if Bai Jing let go of the human-faced owl's claws, this guy had no intention of running away.

Instead, she tilted her head and looked at Bai Jing, showing no emotion.

But obviously, the only creature that can make owls obedient to the non-human owl group is fear.

The fear of falling into death at any time.

This is how Bai Jing feels for the face owl.

If you are disobedient, even though you can't understand the meaning of Bai Jing's words, you can tell from the murderous intent in Bai Jing's eyes.

If you dare to move around again, I will kill you!

Bai Jing lightly stroked the human-faced owl's head.
