Inside The Black Mist Chapter 148: Devil fruit
Kun Lan came back and said, "I found a way, so do you want to continue discussing the first kiss, or come and have a look?"
Ji Yu had already picked up her longbow and walked forward. After walking a few steps, she gasped and said, "This doesn't seem like a man-made cave."
Hearing this, Cang Du raised his rifle and looked around with the lighting accessories on the gun. This cave corridor is very different from the one they came to. The cave passage in front of them has a rough road surface, and the width varies greatly.
In the widest place, two people can walk side by side, and in the narrowest place, you have to turn sideways to pass.
And there are water stains on the top of the cave. It seems that there should be underground water flowing through it, so the environment in the cave is relatively humid.
"This is a naturally formed cave, so if we are lucky, maybe we can reach the ground directly." Kunlan led the way in front. He kept walking, so that the three people behind almost lost him.
Cang Du murmured softly: "This little blue hair grew up underground, right?"
Tianyang also felt that Kunlan seemed to have a natural intuition for this kind of cave system, and it might not be surprising that he really grew up underground.
After a while, Kunlan stopped. There was no way ahead of them, but under the feet of the blue-haired boy, there was a winding tunnel leading to nowhere.
Tianyang threw a light stick down, and after the light stick collided with the stones in the tunnel, it finally stopped.
The emitted cold light illuminated a tunnel more than ten meters deep, extending obliquely downwards, with a twisted tunnel in the middle like a sheep's gut.
Kun Lan volunteered and said: "I'll go down first, you just follow. Be careful, don't climb too fast. Sometimes, when you step on the ground, you will fall into a natural pothole."
"If luck is worse, it may be a bottomless pit. Go deep into the ground and always be in awe."
After turning over the instructions, the blue-haired boy began to crawl into the tunnel, his movements were methodical and nimble. Like a monkey, in the blink of an eye, he has already arrived at the location of the light stick.
In the next paragraph, there seemed to be a turning point. Kunlan bowed her head and leaned forward, and she disappeared into the tunnel.
Others climbed down one after another.
After Jiyu and Cang went down the cave one after another, Tianyang took charge of breaking the tunnel. They walked through this winding and undulating tunnel for nearly four or five hours.
At their best, they can walk stooped; at their worst, they crawl like worms in tight spaces.
During the period, he stopped and stopped, and after resting about ten times, when Kunlan kicked away a stone blocking the way ahead, a gust of cold wind suddenly poured in.
It is windy and cold, which means that they have come to the ground. And this place should be quite empty.
Kunlan threw a fluorescent stick by the cave, and the fluorescent stick quickly fell to the ground. It was not difficult to see from the cold light that they were located less than three meters from the ground.
The blue-haired boy jumped down, but just as he landed, a red light suddenly lit up in front of his eyes.
He quickly lay down on the ground, then looked up, and there was a plant rhizome not far away, crossing this open space.
There are large and small cocoons growing on the fat rhizome as thick as an oil barrel. At this moment, all the cocoons on the rhizome lit up, exuding a crimson light, which dyed the entire space with a layer of blood for no reason.
In the blood-colored cocoon, Kun Lan suddenly saw a large mass of liquid rushing past. In that mass of liquid, there was a half-human arm.
That arm is even wearing armor and gloves. Judging from the standard, it seems to be a soldier of the regular army.
The same scene, Tianyang in the cave also saw: "It's these things again."
Ji Yu came to his side, and her hair that fell down lightly brushed Tian Yang's face, making the young man feel a little itchy.
"The weird plants you saw underground before, are these things?"
Tianyang nodded: "That's them."
"Look ahead." Cang Du stretched out his finger to the other side of the darkness.
In the darkness that seemed like an eternal night, a light began to shine. Slices of red light rose one after another, forming the outline of a towering tree!
It is simply an ancient giant tree, even if it is far away, you can still see its tall and straight figure.
Tianyang suddenly thought, could it be that those rhizomes are the roots of this tree?
Just because the tree roots are so thick and penetrated so deep, they may spread throughout the entire underground system.
Then, it is not surprising that such a tree has the height of a building.
Kun Lan called softly from below: "Are you going to take a look with me, or stay here?"
Since they all came to the ground and found an exaggeratedly large strange tree, naturally no one wanted to stay. The three of Tianyang jumped to the ground one after another, and everyone followed the root on the ground to move forward.
It didn't take long to find that there were more and more similar rhizomes. They seemed to be extending from all directions, and finally they all gathered together.
The place where these roots gather is the giant tree!
Not long after, the four-person team stopped, hiding behind a boulder. Looking forward from behind the stone, the strange giant tree is not far from here.
It can be seen clearly from this distance that the trunk of that thing is almost as thick as a small building.
The height of the tree is more than fifty meters, and those twisted branches extend radially in all directions. There are no leaves, and the branches like arms cling to the dome, looking like they support the hall space.
The blood-colored light flows from the tree body, and the light is dimmed and brightened, as if the tree is breathing.
Tianyang activates his tactical eye, zooms in on the picture, and sees that the roots of the tree are intertwined, and in the intertwined gaps of the roots, there are long and short arms sticking out!
Those arms are not dead, they are alive! They waved slowly, opening and closing their fingers, still wanting to grab something.
Near this evil and strange giant tree, the corpses of the black people in twos and threes knelt down on the ground. Whether it is a mad dog or a prowler, they all face the big tree, forming a circle of worship.
These black people cannot see the light from the cage of will, but their corpses are imprisoned by some kind of force, and they show no signs of corruption and decomposition.
When he looked to the left side of Tianyang Giant Tree, his whole body was shocked suddenly.
Ji Yu noticed something strange about the young man, and asked softly, "What did you find?"
But Tian Yang didn't know how to answer. In the field of vision of tactical eyes, he saw a high-backed throne!
The throne is glued to the giant tree, making it look like an inseparable whole. On the throne made of twisted roots, sat a figure.
Black Prince!
Before the Raven team found three black princes in the high wall, Tian Yang alone remembered clearly. However, he had never seen the one sitting on the throne now.
This black prince looks somewhat similar to the long-haired prince they met for the first time. A crowned helmet with the same shape, but this helmet is more gorgeous, with complicated patterns, and there is a purple gemstone embedded in the crown.
The hair is also loose and long, but it is pale and shimmering. When the wind blows, the hair flutters like a pale flame dancing in the air.
That face looks more mature, if the long-haired prince I met before was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. So now this one has a face more like a mature man in his thirties.
Moreover, it is wearing a set of light armor with a simple shape. It seems that it focuses more on flexibility than defense.
On the forearm armor it placed on the armrest, Tianyang saw a pattern.
A rhombus, with something like an eyeball in the middle, surrounded by twisted and thin lines, just like what I saw on the black tree outside the rotting corpse building.
Beside the throne, there is still a sword. From the scabbard to the hilt, black and silver are used to form various patterns and patterns.
The sword is slender and majestic, like a king's sword!
Apparently Kunlan also found the black prince, the blue-haired boy said in a young voice: "Hey, that is the black prince, it seems that we have found a treasure this time!"
Tianyang quickly said: "Don't mess around, it is definitely not something we can deal with, it's best to wait for the captain and the others to come."
When the three black princes fought that day, the abilities they displayed had already far surpassed that of level 3 dangerous wizards.
The Black Prince sitting under the giant tree may have evolved again, maybe even the rank 4 ascendant is no match for him.
Looking at the four of them, Cangdu has the highest rank among them, and it doesn't look like they have a chance of winning anyway.
Kunlan laughed dryly: "Don't worry, I like to fight, but I'm not stupid. That thing looks very difficult to mess with. Look at that armor and that sword."
"I've never seen such a black people before, and my intuition tells me that it is very dangerous! Super dangerous!"
At this moment, above the giant tree, there was a sudden rustling in the canopy supporting the dome.
Even the Black Prince, who had been sitting still, raised his head.
Tianyang and the others also looked up, and saw a branch hanging down from the sky above the giant tree.
At the end of that branch, two delicate red leaves actually grew. Right in the middle of the pair of leaves, a fruit grows rapidly from small to large.
When the branch was not far from the Black Prince, the fruit was already the size of a fist.
The surface is extremely smooth, and the shape looks like an apple, but the skin is almost transparent. In Tianyang's tactical eyes, he saw clusters of crystals under the peel.
Those crystal filaments expand, glow, and shrink slightly. During this process, this fruit exudes a strong energy atmosphere.
"What is that?" Ji Yu whispered, "It can't be my illusion, why do I feel unbelievable energy in that fruit. The aura it released has already matched a high There is no difference between rank and power!"
Tianyang suddenly remembered something, turned his head and looked back, and the young man's eyes fell on those thick roots.
His pupils suddenly dilated slightly, and he took a breath: "That thing is simply a devil's fruit..."
Several people couldn't help looking at him, wondering what Tianyang meant by this?
