Mystery: Start with the Reader

Standing at the bow of the boat, Abner stared into the distance, thinking that the small island that Miss Gwen called was really 'small'.

The radius is only two or three miles, and there is no vegetation covering it. It is more like a big reef than an island.

Such a small island is like grains of sand in the desert in the vast sea. If there is no guide, or even if there are coordinates, Abner does not think he can find it quickly.

After instructing the sailors to anchor the "Allenheim" on a nearby sea without hidden reefs, Abner, Hugh, and Miss Gwen disembarked from the ship and landed on the island, and quickly got off under the guidance of Miss Gwen. To the back of a huge rock.

Miss Gwen pointed to the ground under the rock with obvious traces of sand and soil filling, and said to the Abners: "That cave is here. After I escaped by chance last time, I put a straw mat on the entrance of the cave and built it again. Get some dirt on it."

Abner looked around the rock, and didn't rush to dig the hole. Instead, he opened his pure white eyes and used the 'scene backtracking' ability to investigate.

After making sure that no one else had been there, he lifted up the mud-covered cushion, revealing a dark hole in the ground.

Ms. Gwen glanced at Abner, then stepped into the cave first with a gun in one hand and a lantern in the other to lead the way. Abner and Xio followed closely behind, one holding a cane sword and the other holding a revolver, to guard against possible accidents.

The cave has a downward slope as a whole, which is not too steep, but there is a danger of rolling down if you accidentally slip.

After walking through the initial section of a long and narrow passage of more than 100 meters, Abner's eyes suddenly opened up, because they came to a large naturally formed cave.

This karst cave is four to five meters high, and it still slopes downward, but except for the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, the rest of the directions can't be seen at a glance, and I don't know what there is.

"The left and the front will lead to several other passages, but they are all dead ends, and there are some monsters at the end, but I cleaned them up last time I came here." Miss Gwen pointed to the right as she introduced, and continued, "Only There will be a lingering passage on the right! But I don’t know exactly where it leads, we were attacked by a longan python on the way last time.”

Abner had also read the passage that Miss Gwen said in that book "Adventures in the Cave", so he just nodded and didn't speak.

"Are you going to take a look to the left and the front?" Miss Gwen asked, unaware that Abner knew it.

Abner and Xio looked at each other, then shook their heads with a smile, and said, "Let's deal with that longan python first!" The main reason he came here was for the main material of the 'Wisdom Keeper', and nothing else important.

"Then follow me! Also, please pay attention, that beast is very good at sneak attacks, maybe it is already spying on us in secret!"

After finishing speaking, Miss Gwen walked cautiously to the right at two o'clock with the lantern in hand.

After walking for about half an hour, the three of Abner came to the edge of the cave, surrounded by thick stone walls, and only a passage about two meters high and four or five meters wide descended.

"This passage is very long, and I don't know how deep it is. Last time we walked a short distance, we were stopped by that beast." Miss Gwen repeated her previous remarks, her tone full of resentment, Obviously, the closer she got to the place where her companion died, the more restless she felt.

Abner didn't try to persuade her of any reason. If his friend had been killed, he wouldn't be able to hold back his anger. The only thing that can help the other party at this moment is to help her take revenge!

This time, Miss Gwen was not allowed to go to the front again. After all, she was just a Sequence 9 'warrior', and she didn't have any powerful Transcendent items. Once she encountered a surprise attack, it would be difficult to protect herself.

Therefore, Abner took the lead into the passage with his cane sword in hand. While he was walking,

From time to time, open the pure white eyes for a second or two, and use the 'scene backtracking' to check for ambushes.

After going forward for about 10 minutes, Abner suddenly heard an empty voice of "Luoda..." in his ear!

The ethereal but shrill voice instantly covered the entire passage.

The voice was mild and quiet, but also cold and piercing, penetrating the soul.

Abner froze in place, and various information flashed through his brain, as if he had become an overwhelmed server, which was overloaded and shut down in an instant.

Fortunately, Abner often experienced this state when analyzing objects with the pure white eyes, so he recovered a little in the blink of an eye, and immediately opened the pure white eyes.

At this moment, a huge blue snake tail quickly protruded from the passage, danced in mid-air, and drew towards Abner who had just regained his strength.

Snapped!

At the critical moment, Abner activated the ability of the 'Sea Wind Cap', blowing a gust of wind from his body, and using the wind pressure as a shield, he fought hard against the opponent's snake tail!

After striking the snake's tail, it returned in vain, and the monster hidden in the darkness could no longer hide its figure, showing itself in front of the three of Abner.

It was a large python with a length of more than 50 meters. It was covered with strong scales. In the eyes like lava balls, a pair of vertical pupils were looking at the three of Abner coldly.

Miss Gwen and Xio had also woken up from the state of brain overload at this moment. They each held weapons and looked at the huge boa constrictor with fear.

But Abner breathed a sigh of relief at this time. The collision just now seemed to be evenly divided, but one side was deliberately planning and attacking with all its strength, while the other was adapting to the situation and acting hastily. There is still a big gap.

"In addition to its amazing size, this giant python is only at the level of Sequence 7 at most..." Thinking of this, Abner continued to use his pure white eyes to analyze the opponent's weaknesses, while helping the 'sea wind hat', creating Dozens of wind blades were sent out, and they slashed at the dragon's eye python.

For a flesh-and-blood body like a giant python, even with scales protecting its body, it can't resist the cutting of the wind blade. Numerous wounds were cut on its body in an instant. No more, but went completely crazy.

In terms of fighting against the wind blade, its defense is not as good as the earth binding spirit left by Jane's father in the house in Backlund's St. George's district.

The completely crazy longan python not only slapped the three of them fiercely with its tail, but also manipulated its own blood flowing out of the wound into tentacles, whipping around like a whip!

However, in terms of water control, even if the blood comes from the other party's body, it can't compare to a 'Wind Blessed One'! Under the ability of the 'Sea Breeze Hat', the whips of blood that had been whipped were instantly rolled back, and instead, they were drawn on the dragon's eye python itself.

At this time, Abner closed the pure white eyes, because he had successfully analyzed the location of the opponent's 'seven inches', and condensed a wind blade to ruthlessly smashed a scale on the lower back of the longan python's neck.

"Woo!" After being hit to the vitals, a human-like fright flashed in the pupils of the giant dragon eye python. At this moment, it no longer had the aura of madness, and it shrank its body, trying to escape.

After seeing this, Abner 'unsheathed' the cane sword, threw it into the air, and shouted: "Hugh!"

"Understood!" Xio, who had been waiting for an opportunity, leaped tacitly, caught the cane sword in mid-air, and then, with the help of the strong wind Abner gave her, jumped to the neck of the giant longan python in three or two strokes.

After dodging a few blood whips that Abner had no time to control through the 'prediction', Xio held the cane sword instead, and ruthlessly inserted it into the 'seven inches' of the giant python!

At the moment when the cane sword was inserted, the eyes of the dragon eye python dimmed instantly, and then the scales began to fall off layer by layer, and the whole snake body began to dehydrate and shrink. It only lasted for two or three seconds, and its huge body was heavy hit the ground.

At the same time, its aura rapidly dimmed, its spirit disintegrated at a high speed, and its body continued to shrink.

The moment Xio fell to the ground in the body of a snake, relying on the physical coordination and balance ability brought by the extraordinary item, she landed on the ground of the passage smoothly, and then she took out a sailor hat from her arms and put it on her head.

After being vigilant for a while, Abner confirmed that the giant dragon eye python was completely dead, and then carefully stepped forward, dug out a pair of its eyeballs, and put them into the tin box that had been prepared earlier. In fact, the analysis ability of this pair of eyeballs is the most powerful part of the dragon eye python. Unfortunately, it is not intelligent, has never read a book, and its knowledge reserve is almost zero, so it cannot exert the power of 'analysis' at all.

"Now that the main materials of the 'Knowledge Keeper' are assembled, I can be promoted to Sequence 7 only after the 'Deduction Student' has digested it!"

When Abner was jumping for joy, he suddenly heard uncontrollable crying from behind. He looked back and found that Miss Gwen was kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly. Her charming face was covered with tears, but the smile between her brows and eyes became more and more obvious.

This young lady has been extremely strong ever since her companion was killed and she escaped alone. Even if she encounters various difficulties in the way of seeking revenge, she has not flinched in the slightest. At this time, the great revenge was avenged, but she could no longer suppress the sadness and joy in her heart, and finally vented it out. Although she didn't help much in the battle, it was enough to witness the death of the python that killed her friend.

Neither Abner nor Xio spoke, and while letting her vent, they silently packed up the body of the giant longan python. Apart from the pair of eyeballs, its scales and skin were also very valuable.

It took a while for Miss Gwen to adjust her emotions. She wiped away her tears and said a little embarrassedly: "I made you laugh..."

"It's nothing, I can understand your feelings!" Abner waved his hand, and instead of entangled in this topic, he took the snake skin he just peeled off and said, "This is the trophy that was promised to you during the notarization. !"

Although the giant longan python was huge when it was alive, it shrank very badly after death, and the snake skin that was successfully peeled off was only two meters long. Simply put, this is a parallel import...

"Thank you!" Miss Gwen was obviously taken aback before reaching out to take it. Knowing the importance of strength, she can't refuse materials that can help her advance. Even if she felt guilty for not being helpful.

"Okay, the matter here is done, let's continue down to see where this passage leads."

Both women had no objection to Abner's proposal, and they set off again, walking down the winding passage.

In less than ten minutes, the three of them reached the end of the passage. There was a large water pool with a diameter of about five meters. There was a lair beside the water pool, which contained a lot of debris from humans. It was obviously the result of the previous adventurer's death. legacy stuff.

Abner took a look, and found that most of the lair contained broken clothes, ordinary weapons such as swords and muskets, and many bags and backpacks.

Only on the deepest stone platform, the jelly-like crimson object and the jellyfish-like blue water next to it attracted Abner's attention.

"That should be the extraordinary characteristics of Jones and Roy... They were my companions before, one was a 'sailor' and the other was a 'hunter'... Unfortunately, they were all killed by that giant python." Miss Gwen said in a low mood Said.

Abner looked back at her suddenly, then squinted his eyes, and said meaningfully: "You actually know Extraordinary characteristics?!"

You know, even the second-generation Extraordinary like Xio didn't know the existence of Extraordinary characteristics until they met him.
