Chapter 690: Gold?
"But I don't think they looked angry." Xuanyuan Wanyu said with some confusion.
Xiao Ye shook his head and said nothing. Creatures like this that live in groups are not very scary individually, but when they gather together, they are the most terrifying.
After all, strong individuals walk alone.
But this kind of group that gathers together is also very scary. Their group consciousness is very scary. Killing one by accident is equivalent to angering the entire group.
Just like these things in front of me, Xuanyuan Wanyu only killed one of them, but the other party actually sent out all of them. It seems that they are determined to fight to the death.
It was absolutely terrifying.
"What are we going to do now?" Xuanyuan Wanyu looked at Xiao Ye who was silent with some anxiety.
At this moment, she felt a little guilty in her heart. If she hadn't been impulsive, she wouldn't have been in this situation. Xiao Ye had obviously reminded herself, but she still passed it.
"I'm sorry," she added quietly.
"What did you say?" Xiao Ye turned around and glanced at Xuanyuan Wanyu in surprise. He was just thinking about what to do and didn't notice what Xuanyuan Wanyu said.
"I'm sorry about what I said before. If it weren't for my reckless actions, this situation wouldn't have been caused." Xuanyuan Wanyu whispered.
"It has nothing to do with you." Xiao Ye shook his head and said: "For these creatures, they have regarded this lake as their own territory. No matter you wake them up or not, as long as the two of us enter the lake Within the range, they will definitely wake up. This kind of social creature has a strong sense of territoriality and is very hostile to outsiders."
"Don't blame yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you. Annoying, because you alerted them in advance and gave us some precautions against them, it's like entering the lake rashly with no way out."
"Really?" Xuanyuan Wanyu looked at Xiao Ye in disbelief: "You really didn't blame me?"
Xiao Ye looked at Xuanyuan Wanyu strangely: "Why do you have such strange thoughts? Now that we are a team, it can even be said that we both rise and fall together. How can I blame you?"
Xuanyuan Wanyu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. From just now to now, she had been feeling anxious in her heart, fearing that Xiao Ye would blame her.
Although her realm has reached the level of mythology, she knows very well that she does not have any actual combat experience and can be regarded as a burden to Xiao Ye.
In a crisis-ridden place like this, baggage can really hold you back.
Xiao Ye thought for a moment and said, "How about you go into my space and rest for a while, and then I'll let you out after I find a way out."
Xiao Ye was not stupid. From Xuanyuan Wanyu's words, he quickly guessed what Xuanyuan Wanyu was thinking at the moment. He was just blaming himself for holding him back.
"No need." Xuanyuan Wanyu said firmly: "My current strength is not bad, enough to help you. I will listen to you in the future and will not act recklessly again."
"Okay." Xiao Ye nodded: "Don't take what just happened to your heart. In such a weird place, anything can happen. It's not your fault. Even I didn't expect this to exist. Planting something, I just felt something was wrong."
Xuanyuan Wanyu nodded heavily.
Xiao Ye turned back to look at the group of mosquito-like creatures and asked without looking back: "Are you able to control the power of misfortune in your body independently now?"
"Not yet." Xuanyuan Wanyu shook her head and whispered: "Although I can sense their existence, they do not obey my control, and I can only barely mobilize them when using the Lucky Heart."
"If it doesn't work, forget it." Xiao Ye said.
"Do you want me to use the power of misfortune to destroy them?" Xuanyuan Wanyu asked.
Xiao Ye shook his head: "No, I just asked casually. There are too many of these things. Even if you can use Era freely,
The power of luck may not be able to clean them out quickly. "
This is not because Xiao Ye underestimated Xuanyuan Wanyu, nor did he underestimate the power of misfortune, but Xiao Ye thought of something.
How did this thing get into Xuanyuan Wanyu's body?
From beginning to end, he didn't notice it at all.
Xiao Ye clearly remembered that his consciousness almost enveloped that place, but until Xuanyuan Wanyu's accident happened, he didn't notice anything strange.
When this happens, there are only a few possibilities. First, this kind of creature can block its spiritual perception. Second, their speed is so fast that even the spiritual consciousness cannot catch their traces.
Both situations are possible. If it's the first one, it's fine. You can't use your spiritual consciousness and you can still use your eyes. But if it's the second situation, it's a bit troublesome.
If their speed is really so fast that even the consciousness cannot catch it, then it is even more impossible to catch it with the naked eye. How can we deal with them when we can't even hide from them, let alone deal with them?
Not to mention that their numbers are still so fine.
"By the way, where is that bird?" Xuanyuan Wanyu suddenly asked.
"Yes, where is that bird?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment. If his perception was correct, the last location where the bird appeared should be at this place, and there was no trace of spatial movement.
This can only mean that it appeared here at the last moment and left again without using space to move.
But apart from that group of weird creatures, there were no other creatures in the entire lake. The lake was clearly visible, and there was nothing hidden at all.
So the question is, where did that bird go?
"Has it already left?" Xuanyuan Wanyu asked.
"I don't know." Xiao Ye shook his head: "Maybe he has left, or maybe he is still here, just hiding."
"Hide it?" Xuanyuan Wanyu looked at Xiao Ye doubtfully: "You mean it led us to this place and then hid it?"
Xiao Ye nodded: "Didn't you notice when we were chasing it just now? Every time it would wait until we were about to catch up with it before running away again. According to her speed and methods, it wouldn't be possible at all. It needs to be like this, which shows that it is intentional.”
"But why does it do this?" Xuanyuan Wanyu was a little confused.
"Maybe they want to use our hands to deal with these guys, or maybe they just lure us here on purpose and then trap us here." Xiao Ye said.
Xuanyuan Wanyu glanced around: "Besides this group of things, there should be nothing else here, right? How can we be trapped?"
"If you go back and take a walk, maybe you will understand." Xiao Ye said.
"Is there anything strange?" Xuanyuan Wanyu asked.
Xiao Ye shook his head and said: "Actually, I don't know either, but when I first came here, I felt something was wrong, but I didn't think much about it at the time. Now it seems that we may have been trapped here. "
"You head in the opposite direction of the lake and see if you can leave here. If you can leave, come back and tell me. I will keep an eye on these guys here to prevent any accidents."
Xuanyuan Wanyu nodded: "Okay."
After Xuanyuan Wanyu left, Xiao Ye drew out the Sword of Dusk and Dawn and slashed a beam of sword light towards the mosquito-like creatures.
However, what surprised him was that the sword light went straight through the bodies of the mosquito-like things and struck into the lake water, causing layers of waves to splash.
"How could this happen?" Xiao Ye was confused.
These things clearly seem to be physical, so why can't the sword light cause harm to them?
The splashing waves of the lake made the mosquito-like things commotion for a moment, but they still did not leave the area around Amber.
Xiao Ye was just a hundred meters away from the lake, but they didn't seem to see Xiao Ye.
resemble
Ye was even more puzzled. From this distance, anyone who is not blind should be able to see it, right?
But this group of creatures just turned a deaf ear to its existence, as if they regarded him as air.
"Are they really invisible, or are they unable to leave the area around the lake?" Xiao Ye pondered.
"As you guessed, we are indeed trapped here." At this moment, Xuanyuan Wanyu came back.
"Tell me carefully," Xiao Ye said.
"I walked in the opposite direction of the lake for a while, and then I discovered your presence again. Then I changed the direction, but the result was the same every time. No matter which direction I walked, I would eventually go Come to the lake." Xuanyuan Wanyu said.
"It seems to be as I guessed." Xiao Ye nodded.
This place clearly showed that he was in a special space. He followed the three-headed strange bird and used space movement to come in directly. It was impossible to get out. The only way to get out was to move out directly through space.
But Xiao Ye had sensed it before, and he couldn't find that special entrance.
It's possible that the entrance has disappeared, or it's hidden. It's even possible that only the three-headed strange bird can open that special entrance.
At this moment, Xiao Ye suddenly frowned and struck Xuanyuan Wanyu in the back with his sword.
when!
A golden bullet was split into two pieces by his knife.
"I just said that this is not possible. If he was killed so easily, he would not be so hated by those beings." A male voice appeared in the void.
"I know, I just wanted to give it a try." A female voice appeared.
"Is it you again?" Xiao Ye frowned.
The voices of the two were very familiar to him. They were the two space-time killers who attacked him not long ago, but a month had passed since the last sneak attack, so Xiao Ye had almost forgotten them.
"I have no grievances with you, why can't we sit down and have a good talk?" Xiao Ye asked in a deep voice.
"Sorry, we are killers and you are our target. In this relationship, do you think we can sit down and talk?" the male voice said.
Xiao Ye said: "What's wrong? Although I am your target, we can also be friends. For example, I can pay double the reward to let you let me go."
"This does sound like a very good idea, what do you think?" the male voice asked.
A female voice sounded: "As a top time and space killer, I feel that talking about money is an insult to us!"
"Three times." Xiao Ye said calmly.
"We are professional." The female voice said.
"What do you think we are?" the male voice asked.
"Four times." Xiao Ye continued.
"no."
"impossible."
"Five times."
Xiao Ye said in a deep voice: "Make friends, many friends, many paths. If five times doesn't work, then we will have to deal with the real thing."
"But before that, take a look at the person next to me. Do you think if anything happens to her during our battle, will you be directly obliterated by the law of time? Or will you be entangled by her power? .”
The two people in the void made no sound.
Xiao Ye didn't say anything, quietly waiting for them to speak.
As visitors from time and space, it was impossible for them not to be able to sense the abnormality in Xuanyuan Wanyu's body.
If something unexpected happens to Xuanyuan Wanyu here because of their battle, the fluctuations in time and space will wipe out everyone who caused it.
Xuanyuan Wanyu is equivalent to a catalyst that drives the long river of time forward. Her importance is self-evident. If something goes wrong under normal circumstances, it may not be a big deal, but if something happens like this, the entire long river of time will be violently affected. fluctuations.
And have luck
Xuanyuan Wanyu, who has a heart of luck, will definitely achieve more than this in the future. If she senses danger in the future, she will definitely go against the long river of time and nip this danger in the cradle.
[I thought you were going to have a fight with them. 】
The system said.
Xiao Ye rolled his eyes: "Do you think I look like that kind of militant?"
[Sometimes it’s quite similar. 】
"Do you think they will consider my proposal?" Xiao Ye asked.
[I don’t know, but it should be possible. 】
"Oh?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment. His suggestion was just a joke. If the other party really agreed, it would be great fun.
Five times the remuneration, I probably shouldn’t have it!
In the void.
A man and a woman were talking.
"There is some trouble. We really can't do anything this time." The male voice said: "I seem to have seen that woman somewhere. She is indeed no match for us now, but we really can't afford to offend her in the future. She is not like Xiao Ye. They are also specially marked by the long river of time and space."
"So you agree to his proposal?" The female voice said, "If word spread like this, our reputation will be lost."
The man sneered: "What good reputation do our Time Killers have? We are not as good as other killer organizations. Although we can travel through time and space at will, our target that time was easy to deal with. Among all killer organizations, we The success rate of the Time Killer organization is less than 10%. If it weren’t for our special abilities and the special targets we serve, I’m afraid it would have been disbanded by now.”
"We are here just to earn some extra money. We don't have to work so hard. As this guy said, multiple friends, multiple paths!"
The girl thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then agree to him!"
The goal of the two of them was not Xiao Ye, and their attack on Xiao Ye was just a casual move to make extra money. Now they can't succeed, and they won't lose anything. Instead, they can get five times the reward Xiao Ye said. How can such a good thing be done? What about enjoying it but not doing it?
As for the honor of being a killer, what is that?
Can it be eaten?
I can't eat it, what can you tell me?
Among all killer organizations, the Time Killers can be regarded as notorious. Not only do they have an extremely low success rate, but they are also very untrustworthy. Almost no one will come to them to take action. But unfortunately, some targets can only be taken action by them. Other killers simply don't have this special ability.
For Time Killers, other beings really love and hate them. Even if the task is given to them, they don't have much hope.
"Okay, we promise you." Just when Xiao Ye was struggling, the two voices came over.
"What? Did you agree?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
"That's right, but five times the reward must be paid every penny!" said the male voice.
"Are you no longer thinking about it?" Xiao Ye asked.
"What are you considering? We also want to make money. Since you can provide more, why don't we agree to it?" said the female voice.
You are so realistic!
Xiao Ye's mouth twitched.
"But is there a possibility that I don't actually have that much money on me?" Xiao Ye said awkwardly.
A man and a woman in the void looked at each other and froze on the spot. The transaction was almost completed, but now you tell us that you have no money!
You just said so loudly that you have no money. If you don’t know, you thought you were a rich man!
"Why don't you make an IOU!" Xiao Ye hesitated and said, "When I have money in the future, I will pay it back to you! By the way, how much is your remuneration?"
"Ten grams of gold." A man's and a woman's voices sounded simultaneously in the void.
"gold?"
"Ten grams?"
Hearing their answers, Xiao Ye froze on the spot. Ten grams of gold could summon two time killers to attack me.
No, it's my own
Why is he worth only ten grams of gold?
That's not right. Is the gold they talk about really the kind of gold they think?
Xiao Ye felt very complicated in his heart and asked quietly: "Are you sure you are not joking with me?"
"We never joke about money." The male voice said.
"If you think it's too much, we can lower the price." The female voice continued.
Xiao Ye was silent for a moment without speaking. He found a small lump of gold from the sea of consciousness: "Is this what you are talking about?"
"Big dog owner, why are there so many!"
"Go ahead, I've never seen so much money in my life!"
Two voices sounded in the void one after another.
Xiao Ye glanced at the almost inexhaustible gold planet in the sea of consciousness, then looked at the barely large amount of gold in his hand, and fell into deep thought.
