Chapter 457 Disturbing Information
Xu Ning picked up a wine bowl from the table, casually found a spot with wine, leaned against the blue stone beside it, and quietly drank a bowl of wine.
Qingyi naturally sensed that Xu Ning had entered.
As she walked out of her own little house, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Xu Ning leaning against the wine spring, drinking.
"What? We built you such a big house, and now you want to sleep on the grass?"
The woman in green walked over, casually found a soft patch of grass, lay down, and began to mock Xu Ning.
Xu Ning chuckled, seemingly ignoring the little snake's mockery. "Qingyi, let me ask you something."
The little snake rolled over and said, "You tell me."
"When you were half-buried on the beach that day, did you see where I came from?"
The little snake stiffened, and after a long while, it replied, "I don't even know which day you're talking about, or when I buried myself on the beach?"
Xu Ning didn't notice the little snake's expression and continued, "It was the day I met Beidou that I dug you out of the beach. You remember now, right?"
"Oh..." The little snake rested its chin on its hand and lay in the grass. "You mean back then? I had just woken up. It was you who activated the achievement that woke me up. As for how you appeared, I have no idea!"
Xu Ning didn't expect the little snake to know, but he must have come here with a mission. Otherwise, why would some mysterious guy throw him here for no reason and then disappear for no reason, leaving him here to enjoy life?
Xu Ning fell into a deep sleep, unaware of what time it was.
However, he was awakened by Paimon in the morning.
"Enjoy this delicious food. I guess we'll have to rely on you again today."
Qingyi encouraged Yinglangwan as she forked large pieces of meat onto his plate.
Little Paimon, standing to the side, looked on with envy and jealousy. "Kong, come and see! The Xiu Gou here eats better than me..."
Kong blushed and pretended not to hear Paimon's request for a better treatment, then asked Xu Ning, "Where shall we begin today?"
Xu Ning thought for a moment, "We've basically cleaned up the southwest region. The easternmost area has become the main mining area. If we had found any trace of the Black Serpent Knights there, we probably would have reported it to the Thousand Rock Army long ago. I think we should focus our search around the Octagonal Hall."
"Kagerou has already memorized the scent of these guys. As long as we bring it to the right place, we won't need to do anything else in the search. Just leave it to Kagerou."
Xu Ning didn't let everyone go out with the puppy; instead, he went out first and found Katarina.
Meanwhile, Zhiqiong was already standing beside Katarina, full of energy, waiting for Xu Ning.
I had originally thought that Jinwu could persuade Zhiqiong, but now it seems that I will have to keep running around with her.
After having the two members of the suicide squad hold hands, Xu Ning teleported them directly to the vicinity of the rugged stone hall, and then summoned Kong, Yinglangmaru, and the others.
"Kageroumaru, how's it going? Any new leads?"
Without hesitation, Yinglangmaru started running, and Xu Ning and the others quickly followed.
"Huh?" Zhiqiong was the first to notice something was wrong and shouted, "Isn't this the way I led you to find Katarina last time? Doggy, you've gone the wrong way, we've been here before."
Xu Ning didn't stop walking. "When we came here last time, it was Katarina who led us to kill the first Black Serpent Knight and obtain that orb. So it's very possible that we missed some monster here."
The group followed the same path as before and arrived at the broken bridge.
Paimon flew around in surprise, "There's an ancient city here! It's amazing that you were able to find this place."
When Zhiqiong heard Paimon's praise, her eyes disappeared from her smile.
Yinglangmaru arrived here, his steps unwavering. He leaped onto a protrusion in the rock wall, ran along the broken stone path, and stopped in front of a crumbling stone wall.
Then he called out to someone behind him.
After spending some time together, Xu Ning gradually seemed to understand Yinglangmaru's actions and cries. Just now, Yinglangmaru's cry clearly told him that the target was inside this wall.
"Zhiqiong, you don't have much fighting ability, don't rush over."
Xu Ning seemed to see more than one person through the crack in the wall. He turned his head and gave Zhiqiong a special instruction, then suddenly threw the wine gourd he was holding in his left hand in the opposite direction.
When the Dust Concealing Gourd flew to its farthest point, the red rope hooked on Xu Ning's middle finger was also stretched to its tightest point.
Xu Ning suddenly pulled, and the Dust Concealment Gourd, like a cannonball shining with golden light, crashed into the wall that was on the verge of collapse.
The moment the stone wall shattered in the center, Xu Ning also saw what was happening inside.
There were three enemies in total. In the center was a blue-armored knight wielding a heavy sword, on the left was an ice arrow archer wielding a longbow, and on the right was a red-armored warrior wielding a long spear, whom Xu Ning was seeing for the first time.
Kong walked to Xu Ning's side, brandishing his longsword, "Brother Xu, I'll deal with that red-armored warrior."
Kagerou drew his long sword from his tail and pointed it at the archer on the left. Xu Ning smiled and said, "Then I have no choice but to take the one in the center!"
The swordsman in blue armor said a sentence and then launched a sweeping attack.
Katarina, who was already standing at the entrance of the stone wall, was struck dumb by its words and froze on the spot.
None of Xu Ning and the other two turned around to look at Katarina, so they naturally didn't notice the expression on her face.
After all, it was a three-on-three match. Apart from Xu Ning, Kong and Yinglangmaru both seemed to be holding back their efforts and were unwilling to fall behind each other.
With a flick of his right claw across the blade he was biting, a talisman crackling with purple lightning was attached to the blade.
He then flicked his head, and three spinning lightning blades flew toward his opponent.
Kong immediately unleashed a "Purple Shadow" attack, sending three bolts of lightning towards his opponent.
"Oh, the dog launched the same attack as you! Sora, keep it up, don't lose to the little dog!"
Paimon pumped up Kong's fists from behind, making the two guys' moves even more ferocious.
As Xu Ning leisurely pressed down on the blue-armored knight's shoulder, injecting a stream of alcohol into its body, Sora and Kagerou had already dealt with their opponent.
“...****, ****…”
The blue-armored knight uttered his last words with difficulty, and then, as the black mist dissipated, he suddenly scattered into a pile of armor and fell to the ground.
Xu Ning took out the beads and engravings from its armor and turned to look at Katarina with a puzzled expression.
She always translated the Black Serpent Knights' words without me having to say anything before, so why is she just standing there in a daze this time?
