Secret Dice Chapter 44

Chapter 44 Traps and Traps (4200)

Luo Jun's team of four people were walking through the jungle in the Lower City.

The leader is Cheng Yan. He can not only sense the vibrations on the ground to detect the enemy's situation, but his tall stature also gives him powerful strength, which is best suited for dealing with emergencies.

Behind him is Su Keke. This girl's fighting ability is a little weaker, but with her sense of smell and the cooperation with Cheng Yan in front, she can detect nearby movements at the first time.

As for Luo Jun and Chen Ran, they were protecting Su Keke from behind, one on the left and the other on the right.

 Chen Ran is very confident in his explosive power, and his personality also likes melee combat. As for Luo Jun, he is the most flexible in everyone's eyes, and the two of them are suitable for the queen.

 Luo Jun was also happy to be misunderstood, because he could not expose his skills. He originally planned to reduce the number of head-on battles with others. He knew how to use light skills and relied on flexibility to get around people, which was a good way to hide his direction.

"Um?"

As he walked closer to the middle floor, Cheng Yan suddenly frowned and signaled a few people to take cover. He leaned down and felt the ground: "Fifty to a hundred meters ahead, there are people moving... The footsteps are quite messy, there should be no less than three people."

Su Keke raised his nose and took a sniff: "There is indeed someone there, and I've never smelled it before. It's very mixed, so he shouldn't be a candidate."

"Is there a group of prisoners with more than three people?" Chen Ran looked at the front: "It seems to be the junction of the middle level and the lower level. Could it be the middle level prisoners?"

“Let me go and take a look!” Luo Jun raised his legs and jumped onto a big tree nearby. As agile as a monkey, he climbed to the top in twos and twos and looked down from a high position.

I saw three prisoners with collars about seventy or eighty meters ahead, moving furtively. The place they were in was close to the edge, but still at the lower level.

Luo Jun made a gesture toward the bottom, as if he had found prey, and then gestured with three fingers, indicating that he had found a prey.

"Three prisoners in the lower area..." Chen Ran was very excited: "Just in time, we have the numerical advantage, go up and kill them!"

“Wait a minute, look at Luo Jun!” Su Keke pointed at the tree. Chen Ran looked up and saw that Luo Jun was waving his hand to signal them not to move rashly.

 Something is wrong.

Luo Jun looked at the three prisoners in the distance and felt that their movements were a bit strange.

  Normally, candidates search for prisoners, and prisoners should also be looking for candidates. In the complex jungle, everyone should move forward carefully and try to avoid staying in the same place for too long.

 But these three prisoners were different. They were moving back and forth within a range of about ten meters. It looked like they were circling in circles.

 If they are tired, they should rest where they are. If they are searching for candidates, they should just pass by and leave quickly. What does it mean to neither rest nor leave, just wandering around in one place?

 Luo Jun thought about it and found only one possibility.

 They are deliberately making a little noise to lure prey into taking the bait!

 That's a trap!

Thinking of this, Luo Jun motioned to the people below to wait for him, then opened the treasure box and took out a fleshy tentacle.

 Troll's Tongue, this is the reward he got in the last mission.

 The collars sealed the prisoners' treasure boxes, but the examination room did not impose such restrictions on candidates. In other words, the use of treasure chests was allowed.

After all, for cultivators above the Peiyuan realm, the Noble Phantasm is also part of their own strength, and the more advanced the Noble Phantasm is, the greater the consumption of vitality will be when used. Depending on its different functions, there are often some side effects. He is not strong enough and cannot control high-level Noble Phantasms. Therefore, the school is not worried about some candidates passing the exam with the help of high-level treasures given by their teachers.

But the school probably didn't expect that some of the candidates with white wristbands would actually receive the treasure box in advance.

"What is he doing?" Su Keke asked curiously: "It seems that he took out something? Isn't it a noble phantom?"

“Impossible!” Chen Ran waved his hands and said, “There is no treasure box in the solid realm. Besides, even if he does bring a treasure chest, the burden of using a treasure chest is too heavy for our current realm.”

It's like handing a large-caliber pistol to a six-year-old child. Even if he can pull the trigger, he won't be able to withstand the recoil.

But before he finished speaking, Luo Jun on the tree waved his hand forward, and a tentacle shot out, stabbing a big tree more than 20 meters away. Luo Jun jumped down from the treetop, followed by the contraction of his tentacles, and swung to the tree.

 “It's really a treasure!” The three people below were stunned.

Landing on the tree accurately, Luo Jun pulled out the bone spur that pierced the trunk of the tree.

To be honest, he could jump over a distance of more than 20 meters on his own, but it was difficult to control the strength and accuracy. Secondly, the branch he stepped on may not be able to withstand such a strong force. Using this tongue, he can position accurately and make little movement, which is easier than jumping over by himself.

As for being found to be holding a Noble Phantasm, he was not worried. The matter of being sucked into the Chaos Mission was officially registered, and was even compiled into a post by Sasha that made the headlines. Many people in the circle knew about it. He didn't hide the fact that he obtained the treasure box. It would be reasonable to take out any treasure box now.

 Getting closer to the three guys, Luo Jun observed carefully and finally found some clues.

Above the place where the three prisoners circled, something seemed to be hidden in the dense canopy of trees, which was not clearly visible from this angle.

Luo Jun compared it, found another tree, and raised his hand.

When the troll's tongue is used, the fleshy root will cover Luo Jun's hand, making it look like they are growing together. As long as the energy is poured into it, it can be ejected. The strength increases with the amount of energy poured into it, and one shot consumes up to ten breaths. , at least two breaths.

Luo Jun poured five breaths of vitality into his tongue, and his tongue shot out and hit a tree fifteen meters away. The entire bone spur was inserted into the trunk of the tree.

This power is almost the same as the troll's attack.

 After confirming that it was firm, Luo Jun swung over again. This time he not only shortened the distance, but also changed the angle. He finally saw clearly that hidden in the canopy was a suspended boulder!

The overall shape of the boulder is similar to an goose egg, but the narrow head has obvious edges and corners. It is almost more than one meter wide and as tall as a person. There are several tree vines tied to it, connected to several nearby trees, and the pointed ends hang downward in the crown of the tree. between. A rough estimate is that it weighs at least two to three tons!

How did you get such a huge stone up?

 A practitioner at the second-level solid state, including the help of vitality, is four to five times as strong as an ordinary person. Three people are equivalent to the strength of a dozen people. It is very difficult to push a two-ton boulder, let alone hang it so high.

There must be helpers!

Thinking of this, Luo Jun used the troll's tongue to return to the tree above Chen Ran and the others, and climbed down nimbly.

"Good guy, what was that thing you just used? Where is it hidden?" Chen Ran was very curious about Luo Jun's precious phantom.

“Don't worry about that for now, those three guys are bait to lure us in.” Luo Jun explained what he had just discovered.

"And these three guys never walked directly under the boulder. I looked carefully and found that the place was full of weeds and broken leaves. There is probably a pit below, waiting for someone to fall in, and then another rock will fall!"

"Looking at it this way, the opponent must have at least six people." Chen Ran analyzed: "Three people are acting as bait outside, and a few more people are ambushing. If there are few people coming, everyone will come out to counter the siege. If there are many people or there are Master, then use the trap to destroy at least one person..."

"That's too cruel!" Su Keke grinned: "If you fall into a pit and get hit by such a big stone, you will be smashed into pieces..."    "This kind of trap should not be used to deal with us. "Luo Jun analyzed: "It is located at the junction of the middle and lower classes, and it is likely to attract candidates with green wristbands or even higher levels. Candidates can only hand in one score card. I don't know if there are any restrictions on the prisoners. If they kill the advanced candidates. , I should be able to get a higher sentence reduction.”

“The other party is well prepared.” Cheng Yan frowned and said, “What should we do?”

“It seems that we have no choice but to give up.” Chen Ran shook his head. "Even if you don't consider traps, we don't have an advantage just in terms of numbers."

“I think you can try it!” Luo Jun expressed a different opinion.

The three of them looked at him together, and saw Luo Jun showing a wicked smile and glancing at Chen Ran's T-shirt. There is a purple striped pattern on the lower edge of the white T-shirt.

“I said, we've been walking around here for a long time, but we haven't seen a single person...” The tallest of the three prisoners complained under the boulder.

"Is there too many people and no one dares to go in?" The bald prisoner next to him scratched his head and said, "If you ask me, just leave one person."

"Isn't that because the boss won't let you go?" The third person with a mustache said: "Brothers have put so much effort into setting up a trap. It's not enough to catch just a few small fish and shrimps. If you want to catch something big, just catch something big!" I wish I could get a green or even blue wristband, which would save me a few more years!”

"Don't worry, the exam has just started. If it doesn't work, there is still a plan B." As he said that, the mustache looked at the sun: "It's been a long time, is it time to change shifts?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a tentacle suddenly shot out from the woods and hit Mustache on the shoulder with lightning speed!

This tentacle was fast and fierce, with a bone spur with inverted teeth at the end, which instantly penetrated Mustache's body. Before he could cry out in pain, it shrank sharply and dragged him into the woods!

 “What?” The other two were startled and didn't even react, so one of them was lost!

Before they could get into position, another tentacle shot out.

This time they were prepared and immediately dodged, and the tentacles passed between the two of them. But this time, the tentacle suddenly swung to one side and hit the big man. It entangled him and then suddenly retracted it, dragging him deeper into the jungle.

 “Help me!” The big man shouted for help. The bald man wanted to step forward, but was a little afraid of the power of the tentacles.

At this time, four people jumped out from the bushes on the other side and chased the big man. But the tentacle was too fast and dragged him into the woods.

Then there was a muffled sound, and the cry for help suddenly stopped.

The five people stood in the open space, looking at each other, but did not dare to step forward.

Who knows how many people are hiding in the jungle, and the tentacles are too weird, could they be a treasure?

Just when they hesitated, the tentacles shot out again!

This time, several people were on guard. No matter whether they were stabbing or sweeping, no one was caught.

“Who are they, hiding and stabbing people?” The leader of the five people was a man with a scarred face, shouting at the bushes.

"Hehehehe... stabbed someone in the back? A group of criminals, how dare you criticize others?" A burst of laughter came from the woods, and then, a young man who looked less than twenty years old came out. On his right hand, there was a The weird tentacles merged together.

"Did you do it?" The prisoners were on guard, and the scar-faced man looked stern and frowned: "Who are you? Are those tentacles a Noble Phantasm? How can there be a Noble Phantasm in the Solid Realm?"

Luo Jun chuckled: "Who said I was in the solid state?" As he said that, he smoothed his hair and inadvertently revealed a touch of purple on his left wrist.

"Purple wristbands?" Several prisoners were shocked: "This is the lower area, how come purple wristbands appear here?"

“I'm not a prisoner.” Luo Jun chuckled and said, “Where can't I go on this mountain?”

　　"Brother, must you have misunderstood..." The scar-faced man swallowed and showed his score card: "We all have one point, and it's useless for you to take it..."

  If a low-level candidate mistakenly enters the high-level area, there will be a warning on the wristband, but there will be no warning on the wristband for high-level candidates who enter the low-level area. The prisoners also took advantage of this and covered up the score cards in an attempt to lure the big fish to the bait. However, they overdid it and the big fish failed to come in. Instead, a crocodile came...

"Who said I was doing it for the points card?" The smile on Luo Jun's face gradually became abnormal: "I have obtained the four-point card. For the rest of the time, I just want to enjoy the thrill of hunting!"

As he spoke, he swung his tentacles, lightly slapped the ground, and walked slowly towards the four people.

Purple wristbands, which means those who are above the third level of Peiyuan Realm, are as powerful as crushing the prisoners on the second level of Guben Realm. But seeing him approaching on his own initiative, several prisoners looked at each other secretly.

 Keep walking, take a few more steps, and you'll reach a trap!

The scar-faced man was still gesturing behind his back. They did not rush out in full force. They also left a teammate to guard the mechanism secretly so that they could put down the boulder at any time.

 Five, four, three, two…

Just when Luo Jun was only one step away from the trap, he suddenly stopped.

 He turned his head to look in the direction of the middle area and said to himself: "There is movement over there, and there seems to be more interesting prey."

“Forget it, you little fishes and shrimps, I'll come back to deal with you later.” After saying that, Luo Jun calmly turned around and left.

"Huh..." The four prisoners all breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were confident of using the boulder mechanism to kill this master of the Peiyuan Realm, if he escaped, they would definitely not be enough for this pervert to kill him!

 It's best if we can live in peace and harmony.

Scarface turned around and ordered: "Let's get out of here quickly. It will be difficult to deal with the pervert when he comes back! Go call the third brother!"

They hurried to find their teammates who were guarding the facility, but when they walked into the woods, they found a man lying next to the facility.

 The teammate who was ambushing was knocked unconscious at some point, and the score cards were also taken away!

Scarface rolled his eyes, and then slapped his thigh: "Damn it, we've been fooled!"

“That kid didn't have a purple wristband at all, he just came here for the points card! He was just bluffing to attract our attention, and a teammate came around to sneak up on us!”

 “What should we do?” Several people looked at each other.

"Nonsense, of course we are chasing!" Scarface gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare not confront us head-on, it means they are no match. As long as you are careful with that tentacle, you can kill them all!"

With that said, he led a few people and rushed out of the woods. After taking just two steps, he saw a middle-aged man with a strong build and a stubble on his face walking towards him.

"Guys, I want to ask something." The stubble-faced man took out a photo: "Have you seen this kid?"
