Chapter 1827： : disappeared without a trace (2

Over time, the glowing plants growing in the underground space emit less and less light.

The surroundings were dark, although it wasn't so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, but as far as you could see, the distance you could see clearly was shortened by more than half.

The three Ji Xiaoxiao anxiously waited for Wang Chao's return, because they entered this underground space for the first time and saw that the surrounding plants had turned dark. I wonder if it would eventually become dark as time passed.

If it becomes dark, it will be very detrimental to Wang Chao, who is on the tracking mission, and they are very worried about it.

"It feels like the sky is about to get completely dark." Cheng Ling said, looking at the luminous plants around him that were getting dim.

Sun Bin looked around, sighed, frowned tightly, and replied, "Yes! If it's completely dark, it will be a little troublesome."

"You don't have to worry too much. With Wang Chao's strength, nothing will happen..." Although Ji Xiaoxiao, like his two companions, was very worried about Wang Chao's safety, as the captain, it is not appropriate for him to say discouraged words at this time.

"Hey..." Cheng Ling sighed and didn't speak any more, while Sun Bin looked at the direction where Wang Chao left with a serious expression.

Ji Xiaoxiao took out the telescope from his backpack and looked into the distance.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in Ji Xiaoxiao's sight.

"what?"

"Wang Chao, he's back." Ji Xiaoxiao said to his companions.

"Ah?" When Sun Bin and Cheng Ling heard the words, they suddenly let out a surprised voice. Then they also took out the telescope from their backpacks and looked in the direction Ji Xiaoxiao was looking at.

"It's really that guy!" Sun Bin said happily.

"It looks like he's not injured, that's great." Cheng Ling looked at Wang Chao, who was running towards his location, and looked up and down carefully to see that the other party's clothes were intact, and said with a smile.

"Huh..." Ji Xiaoxiao exhaled softly, the tense nerves in her heart suddenly relaxed, and she felt that her whole body became very relaxed.

A moment ago, because Wang Chao went on a tracking mission and didn't come back for a long time, the pressure in his heart was very great.

Seeing the other party returning safely now, the pressure on his shoulders instantly dissipated.

Wang Chao, who was running all the way, soon saw the three Ji Xiaoxiao who were looking at him. His face was full of smiles, and the speed under his feet increased.

After a while, he came to the front of his companion.

"call…"

All the way back, Wang Chao was out of breath.

"You! You're finally back. We haven't come back for so long. We thought you had an accident!" Cheng Ling said with a smile as he looked at Wang Chao, who had returned safely.

"What are you kidding? I'm not you, how could something happen?" Wang Chao responded with a smile.

"..." Cheng Ling became unhappy when he heard Wang Chao say this to himself, and then countered, "Hmph, isn't it just stronger than me? There's nothing to be proud of, I will surpass you in the future."

"Really? Then you have to work harder. Judging from the current situation, if you can break through to Tier 3 this year, then you will burn high incense." Wang Chao said with a laugh, he likes to make fun of Cheng Ling.

"Okay, the two of you stop arguing, Wang Chao, tell me quickly, what's the result of following those goblins." Ji Xiaoxiao stopped the two arguing and asked.

"I have recorded the place where the goblins lived with the spirit tool. The whole process of tracking was very smooth, and there were no mistakes..." Wang Chao replied.

"Since you have recorded the places where the goblins live, let's start returning now!" Ji Xiaoxiao said.

"Yeah." Wang Chao nodded, and then the group of four began to return along the same path.

...

The sky in the underground space is getting darker and darker. If it is outside, the sun in the sky is just about to set, but there seems to be a time difference.

But fortunately, the glowing plants around them finally stopped the trend of continuing to press after darkening to a certain extent, and maintained a certain brightness, so as not to make this underground space dark.

Ji Xiaoxiao and his party of four walked all the way, occasionally taking out a positioning tool to indicate the direction.

About an hour later, they came to the hole where they came out at the beginning.

But this time, something unexpected happened.

"Eh?!!"

"The entrance of the hole we came out from is here! Why is it gone!" Cheng Ling exclaimed, and the other three looked around with serious expressions.

Originally, this place should have been a stone wall, and there was a hole in the stone wall with a large diameter, but now there is no hole! At a glance, it is an endless plain.

"Could it be that we haven't reached the place yet!" Sun Bin asked.

"Yes, Ji Xiaoxiao, did you make a mistake?" Wang Chao said.

Ji Xiaoxiao with a dignified face took out the positioning tool from his pocket and fiddled with it a few times. According to the information displayed by the spirit tool, the coordinates here are correct, which is where they came out earlier.

"I'm not mistaken, the spirit tool shows that this is where we came out from the beginning."

"..." Wang Chao and the three fell silent when they heard Ji Xiaoxiao's assertive statement.

"call…"

A strong wind blew up on the vast and boundless plain, causing the sand and stones on the ground to roll and making noises. In such an open place, there were unfamiliar vegetation at a glance, which made Wang Chao and the four of them feel that the surroundings were a little terrifyingly quiet.

"Why is the hole we came out of in the first place gone?" Cheng Ling was the first to break the silence and let out a puzzled murmur.

Unfortunately, no one could answer her question.

"I don't know what happened to the hole that came out and disappeared, so what should we do now?" Sun Bin said.

"Ji Xiaoxiao, you give me the positioning tool and I'll try it." Wang Chao said to Ji Xiaoxiao, he was holding himself to try it to see if the positioning tool would give other answers.

Ji Xiaoxiao gave Wang Chao the locating tool in his hand, and the three watched Wang Chao start playing with the locating tool. After a while, Wang Chao sighed.

"Hey, no! The result is the same as Ji Xiaoxiao, the location displayed by the positioning tool is here..."

Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a few minutes, and felt that it was getting late. She said, "I don't know what happened now. The cave we came out of has disappeared. In this case, we can only let it take its course."

The three of Wang Chao nodded. When they encountered such a strange thing, there was nothing they could do if they were in a hurry. The only way to do this was to wait and see if there were any clues to find the cave that they could go back to.

Just as Ji Xiaoxiao and his party of four were about to find a place to settle down, a black line suddenly appeared on the horizon in the distance.

"What is that?" Cheng Ling was the first to spot the anomaly, pointing to the black line that appeared on the horizon in the distance, and shouted to his companions.

Ji Xiaoxiao and the three looked in the direction Cheng Ling raised his hand to, and immediately discovered the unusual situation, and everyone took out their binoculars to check.

"Cattle?"

In the sight of the four people, they saw that the black line in the distance turned out to be a head and a body with two horns. The body was the size of an eight-person van, and its body was covered with black scales, exactly like a buffalo in the paddy fields on the Blue Star. Alien looking beast.

The reason why they were determined to be alien beasts, rather than by perception, was because the eyes of these creatures shone with a pale golden aura.

"There are so many exotic beasts!" Sun Bin exclaimed. The buffalo beasts with black scales appeared in the distance, and their eyes scanned from left to right. There were hundreds of them in a row.

After that, there were countless numbers of people in the second row and the third row.

"The number of these alien beasts is really amazing. I didn't expect such a large-scale alien beast group to live under the ground so close to our spiritual world station." Wang Chao said, his tone was very solemn.

"They're coming towards us, let's get out of here quickly." Ji Xiaoxiao saw the buffalo beasts with black scales galloping towards their location, and felt that the most urgent task at the moment was to avoid this group of aliens as soon as possible. beast.

"Where to hide?" Cheng Ling said.

"There, there is a small hill there. Although it is not particularly high, it is a suitable place to avoid." Wang Chao raised his finger and pointed to a small hill several dozen meters high in the distance, and said to his companions.

"Okay, let's go to that small hill." Ji Xiaoxiao looked at the location of the small hill.

Although there is a distance from where they are, at their speed, before the group of buffalo animals with black scales arrive, they can reach the place where the small hill is.

Afterwards, a group of four people ran non-stop to the place where the small hill was.

The buffalo alien beasts with black scales are generally not strong, only the strength of the first stage to the first stage high stage.

But there are too many of them. At first glance, I can't see the head. I guessed that the number should be no less than four or five thousand.

Such a large group of alien beasts is rare, and if it appears on the ground, it is a great threat to the stronghold of human beings.

And if the human side wants to clear such a large-scale alien beast group, it must send a large number of people to carry out all-out efforts to clear it.

"Tap tap..."

Ji Xiaoxiao's group of four ran all the way, and soon they came to the foot of the small hill, and then ran to the top of the mountain.

The **** of the small hill is not very steep, so they climbed the mountain very easily and quickly reached the top of the mountain.

"call…"

After adjusting their breath, the four of them looked into the distance with binoculars.

"Roar…"

Flocks of buffalo beasts with black scales on their bodies uttered one after another cry.

They passed through where Ji Xiaoxiao and his group of four were before, then ran forward quickly, turned a corner 1 km ahead, and then went to a place with lush grass in the distance.

Ji Xiaoxiao and his party of four quietly watched the buffalo beasts with black scales on the top of the mountain, watched them reach the place with lush grass, and then stopped.

"These alien beasts have stopped and are ready to be repaired there." Cheng Ling said.

"I thought they would run all the way until they disappeared, but they all stopped not far from us," Sun Bin said.

"We're going to stay in this place for a while now." Wang Chao said, looking at the alien beasts that were gnawing at the grass and leaves.

"Everyone, sit down and eat something and replenish your physical strength! If there is another change in the future, we will be able to deal with it." Ji Xiaoxiao said.

Wang Chao and the other three nodded, and then they all sat on the ground, watching the wild beasts in the distance, while taking out dry food from their backpacks and eating them in small bites.

Change to normal, even if you are tired of portable dry food, but everyone eats fast food with big mouthfuls.

Naihe's current situation really doesn't make me want to eat. It's fine. The hole that I came out of has disappeared, and I can't go home. Anyone would feel a little depressed.

"Roar…"

Thousands of buffalo beasts with black scales on their bodies ate the delicious grass and leaves in big mouthfuls, in stark contrast to the four humans who couldn't get their appetites to eat on the distant hills.

Over time, these black-scaled buffalo beasts also filled their stomachs.

After eating and drinking, the alien beasts did not lie down and rest directly, but stepped forward, left the place to eat, and ran towards the end of the sky.

So many alien beasts ran together, and the sound caused by stepping on the ground gave people an overwhelming momentum.

It was as if any enemy standing in front of this group of alien beasts could not withstand their round of charge.

After they were full, they ran faster. After a while, the group of buffalo beasts with black scales disappeared on the horizon.

"Those alien beasts have left." Cheng Ling put down the telescope and said to the three companions beside him.

"Yeah, we left, should we find a place to settle down next?" Sun Bin said.

"Calculate the time, before UU reading goes to bed, we have to go around and see if we can find clues about the disappearance of the hole." Wang Chao suggested.

The three looked at the captain Ji Xiaoxiao and wanted to see what she was thinking now.

Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, she felt that the surroundings were dark, and it was safer to wait for those glowing plants to become bright again before moving.

"We are not familiar with the situation here. For the sake of safety, let's find a place to settle down for the time being! Let's wait until the environment here brightens before moving."

Ji Xiaoxiao's proposal is indeed a relatively safe approach in this unfamiliar environment.

The three of Wang Chao thought for a while and nodded, then they all got down from the small hill and cleaned the ground behind a boulder at the foot of the hill, as a place for them to sleep tonight.
