Chapter 513 - Weakness
In the gold matrix.
Xiao Qianhan and the rest advanced smoothly without any obstructions from the spirit genie. Because they weren't in a hurry, and because of the mercenary group, they had to conserve their strength as much as possible, so they walked relatively slowly. Perhaps it was because of this that the formation genie was attracted by the people who were rushing over; perhaps the formation genie could sense danger and did not dare to approach them.
All in all, they could only see the formation genie from afar along the way. Furthermore, they were trying to stop them.
The sky above the gold matrix was misty and dark. It was hard to see through, which made people feel depressed. Many people who were in a hurry to climb the mountain would immediately attack the moment they encountered the formation genie. Moreover, they would go all out at once. It was very spicy!
There were also many people who entered the mountain after Xiao Qianhan and the others, but their speed was extremely fast, quickly surpassing Xiao Qianhan and the others. A couple glanced back at them as they passed.
"Verapamil, why are they so slow? They don't seem to be in a hurry at all." The woman asked the man curiously.
"Why else would they be afraid of attracting the formation genie if they leave too quickly?" You didn't see that they were all hiding their true strength, wasn't it just that they were too weak? The man's tone was disdainful.
"Then should we also slow down a bit and let others lure the formation genie away first?"
The man coldly snorted and waved his hand, "That is something incompetent. If I dare to bring you here, a mere formation genie will naturally be no problem. "
"Verapamil, you are awesome!" The woman called out.
The man became more and more pleased, he looked at Xiao Qianhan and the rest with disdain, and quickly walked forward with the woman.
Regarding this, Xiao Qianhan did not react at all. This little episode was completely unable to affect her state of mind. On the other hand, Long Yu could not tolerate it, but after hearing these words from Yuan Shu, he stopped moving.
"If you argue with a fool, you will only be pulled to the same level as a fool."
After Long Yu heard it, he pondered for a moment. He felt that there was no need to bother with idiots, so it was fine.
Although the range of the gold matrix was large, formation spirits were also much rarer. and the others had never encountered a single formation genie before, when they had walked to the edge of the gold matrix and the next one.
However, he encountered other obstacles at the border.
This was the only entrance to the wood array. The intersection of the other two formations was separated by an invisible barrier. The only entrance was already packed. However, it wasn't because there were too many people to pass, but because there were people blocking the way.
There were around a dozen people who were setting up the cards, each of them intentionally releasing strong fluctuations of spiritual energy. Of course, this was only true for the vast majority of the challengers. As for Xiao Qianhan and the others, they were negligible.
Around the entrance stood many people who had just climbed over the mountain and were waiting to charge into the wood array. However, for some reason, these people only stood around without a single person passing.
Xiao Qianhan glanced around and ignored them, and continued to walk towards the entrance. But before she could even take a few steps, she was stopped by a man.
"Hey, what are you all squeezing together for? Do you want to cut in line!? Go to hell! "Go to the back of the line and push forward when the incense is exhausted!" The man disdainfully said as he pointed to an incense stick that was placed near the entrance. It was obvious that the incense had been lit by the card holder.
Xiao Qianhan's gaze turned cold, and just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard someone shout: "The incense has burnt out! I am the first one! "
"I'm second!" No one is coming with me! "
"I'm third …"
"You what? Third? I'm with them, I'm third!"
The first shout was like a primer, causing everyone who was watching to move. Other than Xiao Qianhan and the rest.
In less than a quarter of an hour, a long line had formed at the entrance. It was quite normal, and no one cut in line.
"What's going on? Do we have to wait in line to climb the mountain? " Long Yu was a little doubtful when he saw this.
Xiao Qianhan also slightly creased her brows, her gaze landing on the front. There, the first man was passing through the entrance. At the same time, the first person gave a pill to the person who set up the card.
"Haha!" I only spent a single pill and I am already here! "
"I'm not bad either. I only used two."
As he continued on, he quickly passed a dozen people, and the number of pills he could produce also gradually increased. This caused the people at the back of the line to waver, and some even withdrew from the line with faces full of dejection.
Long Yu was puzzled, and went over to ask someone.
"Excuse me, why do you have to hand in the pills after passing through this entrance?" Furthermore, the numbers are different? "
The person glanced at Long Yu and said gloomily: "Silver Wolf Mercenaries has set this barrier up. Within two hours, everyone who passes through the entrance must hand over their medicinal pellets to Silver Wolf Mercenaries. One for one, two for two, and so on. Every two hours, they would start to count again. "
"Is the setting of a card the rule of the Tianlei Mountain?" Xiao Qianhan walked over from an unknown time, and asked with sunken eyes.
The man shook his head, "No, Silver Wolf Mercenaries just appeared a few days ago."
Long Yu was immediately enraged, "Isn't this a robbery? I've lived for so long, but this is the first time I've seen someone so happy after getting robbed! "
Xiao Qianhan's eyes darkened as well as she stood up straight and looked at the entrance.
The speed at which they passed through gradually slowed down, as if there were too many pills to be given. There were even arguments.
"I don't have enough pills. Can't I just go over?" If a person did not have enough medicinal pills, he did not plan to go over.
"Cut the crap!" Take out the pills, and use your fingers to fill in the leftover! " A person from the Silver Wolf Mercenaries snatched the storage bag away, and immediately erased the traces of its original owner. She opened it and looked, "There are still ten more. I should have chopped off ten of your fingers, but you won't be able to move at all, so I'll give you a ten percent discount, so I'll chop off nine of them! "
When the person heard this, he was so scared that he turned around and was about to run back. However, how could the people of Silver Wolf Mercenaries let him go like this? He grabbed him back and prepared to cut off his fingers.
"AHH!" Don't chop! I'll give you all the pills, can't I go over? " That person frantically struggled, wanting to break free.
"Since you're on the same list, you can't argue with me. Aren't you treating us, the Silver Wolf, as child's play?" The Silver Wolf Mercenaries laughed coldly, and directly said to the people beside him: "Chop!"
A cold light flashed, and all nine of his fingers fell to the ground. The man was in so much pain that he was about to scream, but someone had stuffed something into his mouth, causing him to be unable to utter a single word.
"Alright, get lost." The man from Silver Wolf Mercenaries casually kicked him away, then said to the next person: "Come here, it's your turn."
The person behind him was the man who had mocked Xiao Qianhan and the others previously. At this moment, he was also frightened by the earlier scene to the point that his face turned somewhat pale.
"Verapamil, I'm a little scared." The woman held onto the man's arm with a fearful gaze.
