Chapter 37 What are you hiding?
In the semi-enclosed passage, the faint sweet smell of pheromones made the sentinels feel like a rain of blessing after a long drought.

They sniffed the scent almost greedily, and many sentinels thought they were hallucinating.

Otherwise, how could the smell of the guide's pheromones appear in such a place?

Perhaps it was too outrageous. Even though the sentinels were sure that the smell was the guide's pheromone, they did not think it was real at first.

It could just be someone using some higher level guide element, or it could be my own hallucination.

How can this be true?

The other sentinels didn't dare to confirm, but Renault, the S-class white iguana sentinel, kept his eyes fixed in a certain direction.

His spiritual body, the white iguana, spit out its tongue, smelling the faint sweet fragrance mixed with the pheromones of thousands of sentinels.

In just a moment, Renault's gaze penetrated the layers of sentinels and locked onto the source of the pheromones.

The tip of his ear moved slightly and caught an extremely subtle gasp.

The sound, the pheromones, the scent. No doubt, it is a guide.

It took Renault only a dozen seconds from hearing the guide's voice to confirming it.

The Knicks didn't even dare to make any rash moves at this moment. They could only stand still and pay close attention to the situation on Yu Xia's side.

"You guys." Renault slowly raised his long knife and pointed at Nix and Huo Lin, "You are quite courageous."

Hearing his words, Knicks and Huo Lin's expressions darkened and they immediately tightened their knives.

Renault's words and expression told them that he already knew that it was the guide.

At this time, a sentinel in the crowd suddenly said, "This smell seems to be a guide."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire passage fell silent instantly.

Then, the sentinel's words just now were like a delayed thunder, which suddenly exploded after the sentinels were silent for a moment.

All the sentries looked in Yu Xia's direction.

With their sensitive hearing and sense of smell, they can determine the source of the sound and smell without any hesitation.

The members of Team 19 knew they could no longer hide the secret.

If everything had gone as they planned, with Huo Lin controlling the mecha to open the isolation net, they would have taken Yu Xia out of the contaminated area, avoided the sentinels, headed for the nearest resettlement point, and then contacted the Federation and the White Tower.

No one expected that the spread of the contaminated area would activate the gray wall, completely trapping them inside.

And from what Colen said, they were trapped here, and there might be someone else behind it.

The current situation is what they least want to see.

They were caught in a group of sentinels that were about to go berserk, with a guide who might be experiencing a fever of union.

At this moment, Yu Xia curled up in Oger's arms and felt hot. His desire for water reached its peak at this moment.

She wanted water, but she also wanted to use her mental power to calm the anxious emotions of the sentinels, so that she would feel better.

She felt really stuffy, so she pulled down the Oger that was covering her mouth, and then roughly pulled off her scarf, wanting to take a good breath.

Oger knew that she was upset, and did not stop her. He just held her in his arms, and his spirit body silently stood in front of them.

He knew that there might be a tough battle later.

He glanced at the pendant on Yu Xia's chest. This was the A-level containment object he had given her before that could conceal her breath and sound. Now the "ruby" on the pendant had disappeared.

The spread of the contaminated area caused these originally benign objects to suddenly become extremely active, and the object on the pendant actually ran away on its own.

None of them had expected this, and it was worse than their worst-case scenario.

Gradually, the sentries gathered around them, all staring at the backs of the members of Team 19. One sentry asked, "What are you hiding?"

The members of Team 19 had cold expressions. They summoned all their spirits and held their weapons in a defensive stance.

"What is hidden?!" A bear sentry who was about to go berserk was panting, staring at the back of them with red eyes. The sweet scent was about to drive him crazy.

He gasped heavily for a few times, and could no longer hold back as he raised his mutated and sharp bear claws, trying to knock away the members of Team 19 who were blocking his way.

Baru pounced on him first, and the spirit of the fire dragon appeared behind him, biting the sentinel and shaking him hard, throwing him away.

It happened in a flash, and seeing someone taking action, the other sentinels also became restless.

"Roar!" The fire dragon roared at the sentinels. Its body size changed to its largest. It raised its head and spewed out a stream of flame to warn and intimidate the sentinels.

The roar of a dragon echoed throughout the passage. The sentinels took a few steps back in fear when they saw the spirit of the fire dragon.

A large space suddenly appeared in front of Baru and the others.

At this time, Knicks and Huo Lin also squeezed through the crowd and rushed over, holding long swords to protect them.

Huo Lin said without even turning his head: "Oger, Baru, you guys escort Yu Xia out."

There was a burst of gunfire, and two mechas fired into the air, clearing a path and protecting them.

Oger hugged Yu Xia tightly, ready to take her out of here.

There are alien species everywhere outside now, but they have no choice in this situation.

"Knicks, what's going on?" A captain asked Knicks, "You guys, what are you hiding?!"

"It's a guide! They hid a guide!" A sentinel said what they couldn't believe in their hearts.

Suddenly, the sentries were in an uproar.

"How dare you?!"

They were shocked not only that Knicks had brought a guide into the contaminated area, but also that Knicks was involved in doing this.

Most of the sentinels here know Nix. He used to be a major in the Seventh Legion and was in charge of a lot of sentinels. He was dismissed for fighting for the rights of the grassroots sentinels. No one would believe that such an upright and righteous person would do something like hiding the guide.

"A, a guide?! Really a guide?!"

"I knew it. I said this smell is not something that can be produced by guide essence!"

"How despicable! You actually hid the guide! Hand him over now!"

The sentinels were furious. Knyx looked around and saw that most of those who were shouting to hand over the guide were mercenaries with no organization.

The sentries of the Seventh Legion looked at them mostly with condemnation.

"Nix, what's going on?" A team leader whose spirit body is a gray wolf stepped forward. "The contaminated area is so dangerous, how can you bring a guide in?"

Other team leaders also stepped forward and stood in front of the sentinels.

They were slightly more rational than the other sentinels and knew that if they were not controlled at this moment, a tragedy would occur.

No matter how strong Huo Lin and his men were, they could not fight against so many sentinels that were about to go berserk.

The Gray Wolf Captain just now said again: "There are alien species and pollutants outside now. You still want to take the guide out. Aren't you asking for her life?"

Nix took a deep breath and said, "We brought a guide."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the group of sentinels became agitated, and several already violent sentinels rushed towards them.
