Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 79 The Strange Genius

“If you get a psychic variant, it will naturally belong to Sister Ren.”

Ji Xinghuo and the three of them had no objection to this. Ren Mian had helped them so much, and now that she was in need, she would definitely do her best.

However, Ji Xinghuo had a question, "Sister Ren, how do you know there is a toad spirit in the deep rock rift?"

 “I bought the news from Wanglongtai.” Ren Mian replied.

 “Is it reliable?”

"It's most likely reliable." Ren Mian's eyes showed a bit of coldness, "Wanglongtai doesn't dare to lie to me. Their reputation has always been very good."

"I'm afraid they will sell the information to others." Ji Xinghuo disagreed.

 In this kind of information trading, in addition to the initial cost of obtaining the information, there will be huge profits later. If you sell it once, you will sell it, and you will sell it a hundred times. Of course, you have to sell it to more customers to earn more money.

"It is indeed possible." Ren Mian muttered for a few times, "After dawn, we will enter the deep rock rift valley to explore the city of the Skink people. First, we must confirm whether the toad spirit is still there." She looked at Ji Xinghuo, " Starfire, it’s all up to you.”

 Ji Xinghuo nodded heavily.

 A few hours later, it got hot soon after dawn.

Skin Lizards are afraid of heat but not cold, and are afraid of light but not dark. The combination of these two factors makes them generally active only on starry nights and dark nights, and will not easily leave the Rift Valley during the day.

 The four of them approached the rift valley and explored the terrain.

 This huge rift valley, which is more than 100 kilometers long, is different from other places. There are large rocks on the surrounding ground and there is not much vegetation. It looks bare, which is not conducive to hiding.

The widest part of the rift valley is more than ten kilometers. Inside, there are rugged rocks and countless cliffs, forming an extremely complex terrain. It is like a huge maze with no bottom. Cold wind and mist blowing out of the tunnels and dark rooms are daunting. .

 “Let’s go in.”

Ren Mian led the team into the rift valley, and Ji Xinghuo quickly found traces of people walking there.

He recognized that these were the footprints of the Skink people, extending deep into the rift valley. "Follow the traces, and you should be able to find the way to the Skink City."

 “Starfire, you will show the way.”

"good."

Ji Xinghuo has always turned on his magnetic field induction. In fact, he can find the right path without tracing his footprints.

After walking for more than an hour, the team has penetrated deep into the middle of the rift valley, thousands of meters above the ground. When looking up, they can only see dim light. The sky is blocked by large cliffs and strange rocks. The temperature has dropped. Walking in it feels like walking in a Traveling through caves.

 Suddenly, Ji Xinghuo made a gesture to stop his teammates.

Ren Mian put on the thinking necklace, and a voice rang in his head: "What's wrong?"

 “There is someone.”

Ji Xinghuo's expression was a little strange, "They are from Earth. They are a hunting team. There are five in total. They should all be super aliens."

 The expressions on the faces of the three teammates are all wonderful.

Ren Mian snorted in his heart, "You were right. Wanglongtai sold the information about the toad spirit to others."

 Then he asked: "They didn't notice us, did they?"

"No."

Ji Xinghuo shook his head. The team was more than 700 meters away. The four of them did not speak. They all wore "sweat-absorbing orchid leaves" and sprayed deodorant on their bodies. The other party could not see, hear or smell them. They were moving forward in the rift valley. , did not realize that he had been discovered.

“Sister Ren, what should we do?” he asked, “They seem to be familiar with the Rift Valley and should have gotten here before us.”

Ren Mian thought for a few seconds, "Follow them and act according to the situation."

"good."

Ji Xinghuo's magnetic field induction was locked on these five people, keeping a distance of 600 to 700 meters.

This team advanced very quickly in the rift valley, but did not emit any sound waves.

 “Phantom Sound Master?”

Ji Xinghuo quickly saw the clues.

 There is a Phantom Sound Master among the five people, who can cover the movements of the entire team at all times and absorb sounds. This is much more concealed than a single Phantom Bead.

Soon after, the team in front slowed down, became cautious, and hid in a corner.

Ji Xinghuo followed a little further and realized what was going on.

There is a tall cave entrance a few hundred meters away, which was obviously dug manually. There are huge rocks surrounding the cave entrance, making it difficult to find. The entrance to the cave is very deep, and there is a group of Skink Guards inside. This should be the passage leading to the Skink City.

  Ji Xinghuo conveyed this information to his teammates.

 “They are going in.”

During the magnetic field induction, Ji Xinghuo saw a strange person's body undergo drastic changes. He grew from about 1.85 meters to 2 meters tall, with a big tail growing out of his back. His hands turned into claws. His body was a little more rickety, and his appearance was similar to that of a stone lizard. People are exactly the same.

 “The strange wizard!”

Ji Xinghuo was surprised. There was actually a strange wizard in this team.

This is an extremely rare career template with three core abilities.

 They are "Inorganic Change", "Organic Restoration" and "Mimicry" respectively. The first two are transboundary powers, and the latter one is an outstanding power.

The bodies of strange wizards are ever-changing. Not only can they turn into the appearance of other humans and other races through genetic information, but they can also turn into various inanimate objects, such as stones, running water, tables and chairs, etc. Their fighting methods are very strange and difficult to guard against. . I saw this strange wizard strutting towards the entrance of the cave. When the skink guard saw him, he was not on guard and just asked.

The weird wizard didn't answer. As he approached the guards, his hands suddenly turned into sharp blades. One to the left and one to the right, he chopped off the heads of the two guards.

 At the same time, his body turned into a large cloud of smoke, shrouding the remaining skink people.

 They were immediately suffocated and unable to make a sound.

This smoke is obviously highly poisonous. It penetrates from the nostrils of the skink people and accelerates the poisoning. The smoke is like invisible hands, grabbing their necks and wrapping around their bodies, killing them silently.

 In just a few seconds, an entire group of skink guards were killed.

Ji Xinghuo was amazed.

This kind of killing method, even if you know in advance that he is a cunning wizard, it is difficult to guard against it.

 After the Wizard of War killed the guard, his teammates came out of the hiding place and walked into the cave entrance.

 “Let’s go in too.”

Ji Xinghuo and the others approached the cave entrance. When Ren Mian saw the corpse of the Skin Lizard on the ground, her face changed slightly. She had already heard Ji Xinghuo say that this was the work of a strange wizard.

“This team is not simple.” Chi Zhonglin said in his heart.

"You can't underestimate a cunning wizard." Ren Mian was still very calm, "However, the news about the Toad Spirit has been over a year ago, and the Wanglong Tower should not only be sold to us and the team in front, but there is not enough preparation. Even the toad spirit can’t be found, it should still be there now.”

 She paused and said, "This is actually a good thing."

Ji Xinghuo guessed what she was thinking, "Sister Ren wants to use them as bait?"

"That's right." Ren Mian smiled, "The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. This time, let's just be the oriole."

While talking, the four of them had already walked into the passage behind the cave entrance.

This passage winds all the way down. There are many forks and guards on the road, but they were all cleared by the team in front.

Ji Xinghuo and his party followed them and gradually went deeper.

After a moment, my eyes suddenly opened up, and I entered a huge cave with a height of nearly two hundred meters. There were huge pillars or rocks in the middle supporting the dome. The light was dim. Looking from one side of the entrance to the other side, there were three or four caves. Kilometers so far.

Ji Xinghuo looked far into the distance and saw that the passage he was in was just one of the entrances to the cave.

There are more than a dozen passages like this.

There are countless nests built in the cave, all of which were dug out of the original huge rocks. They are scattered at different heights and orderly, like artificial beehives. However, the people living in them are not bees, but stone lizards. It is a huge city under the city walls.

The dim light had little effect on the Wanxiang Xingpu. Ji Xinghuo looked towards the opposite side of the cave, where there was a giant arch a hundred meters high.

 Behind the arch you can see another cave.

It is precisely such interconnected caves that constitute the city under the city of the Skin Lizards.

They also lived underground on their home star "Night Star". Their technology was not developed and could even be said to be primitive and backward. That's why they were defeated by the Dagon expeditionary force and surrendered to their rule.

 At this time, the team in front had already gone far.

They asked the Phantom Sound Master to cover up their figures, carefully avoiding the skink lizards in the cave, and headed towards the arch.

Ji Xinghuo saw through their silent illusions at a glance.

 This is the first time he has directly observed this hunting team. All five of them are men. From their equipment and appearance, they can guess their alien occupations.

 The Voicecaster and the Trickster Already Know.

 The remaining three, a tall man carrying a spear, should be martial arts masters.

There is also a man wearing heavy plate armor, like a mobile humanoid fortress, holding a giant axe, which weighs at least two to three hundred kilograms, but his steps are light and agile, as if the heavy armored ax on his body has no weight and is used. Made of plastic foam.

 “Gravity Warrior!”

Ji Xinghuo's heart was open. Only gravity warriors had this ability to lift things with ease.

The profession of the last alien is also easy to identify. He wears streamlined soft leather armor that is elastic and can fit the body. The weapons are two short swords. The boots on his feet are also specially made super equipment. These Designed to reduce air resistance at high speeds.

 “He is a fly-stepper.”

 Cunning wizard, martial artist, phantom sound master, gravity warrior, flying step.

 The professional configuration of this team is very unreasonable. It is obviously formed temporarily. It does not look at the configuration, but only the personal strength of the members.

 As long as you are strong enough, many problems can be solved.

It can also be seen from their skin color that of these five people, except for the gravity warrior who is wrapped in heavy armor, two are of yellow race, one is white and one is black.

This kind of cross-border combination rarely lasts long, not to mention that the five people are all super aliens.

 They are a temporary team formed for the Toad Spirit.

 “Where is the toad spirit?”

Ji Xinghuo looked at the direction they were heading and asked Ren Mian in his mind.

"Over there." Ren Mian pointed to the arch opposite the cave, "The toad spirits are in the deepest part of the Skink City. Let's follow them and let them explore the way ahead."
