The Death Knell

This environment is very unfavorable for creatures with a keen sense of smell. Even if Strangler can distinguish various smells in ordinary sewers, it cannot lock on to Diana's smell when surrounded by endless carrion corpses.

The smell of each rotting corpse is different, including the smell of decay after death, and their different body odors during life, all mixed together at this time.

Even if strangulation mimics canine olfactory cells, the answer to the host is still the loss of her trace.

Su Ming now only knows that she once fell on some corpses, and then walked down the mountain of corpses to this narrow canyon like herself. But as the few footprints left on the corpses disappeared, these solid black stones There are no traces left on the ground.

"What does this have to do with those beetles?" Harley followed down from the mountain of corpses and leaned closer to ask.

"Haven't you found it yet?"

Su Ming grabbed a rotting corpse from the pile of corpses nearby, raised his hand and wiped the corpse's face vigorously, wiping away the black mud on the face.

As the pale skin came into view, Harry and Bobo saw that the corpse had no eyes, and gurgling black mud was flowing out of the loose eye sockets, like sticky glue.

"The beetles took out their eyeballs?" Bobo shook his head. Although he knew that beetles were basically decomposers in the biological chain, just eating eyeballs was too weird.

"That's not true."

Su Ming threw the body back, shook his hand, and took out the fruit that Harley had snatched from the beetle from his pocket:

"This is a real fruit, made of cellulose, it just looks like eyes. But first, the eyes must be some kind of hint, and there is a connection between the two that we don't know yet. Second, we see it in the outside world The beetles all crawled out of the sinkhole, which means they should know where the way out is. Finding them means finding the exit, and they are likely to meet Xiao Dai who is also looking for the exit."

Diana had never been good at observation or logical thinking, but those colorful bugs were so conspicuous that she would definitely not miss them if she encountered them.

Beetles usually live in forests or grasslands, and she would think that following the beetles would lead to their nests, which meant leaving the corpse.

Bobo spread his hands on his shoulders and then covered his nose:

"It sounds easy, but it's too difficult to do. We don't know how many corpses there are in this space. Finding a bunch of beetles in this damn place is like finding a needle in a haystack. If they dig holes inside the corpse pile, Do we also have to open every corpse and look for it?”

"Actually, there is an easier way." Su Ming picked up Harley and carried Bobo in one direction. The black ground covered with black mud did not affect his speed: "If we regard each mountain of corpses as The wall, and the canyon between the corpse mountains is regarded as a passage, then this large area is like a maze. Diana is right-handed, so in the seemingly disgusting and dangerous maze, she will pick up a weapon, so, There is a high probability that she will turn left at every intersection."

After listening to Deathstroke's words, the orangutan detective rolled his eyes and understood that this was actually a well-understood assumption.

Diana will hold the sword in her right hand and the shield in her left hand. When turning to the left, her right arm can attack more powerfully, and the shield can naturally protect her body. It's that simple.

Although there is no guarantee that it is 100% correct, as long as there is a 60% possibility, he supports Deathstroke's judgment.

This can be regarded as the application of some psychology, as well as consideration of Diana's daily habits. The fact that she hangs the mantra lasso on the right side of her belt is enough to illustrate the problem of right-handedness.

After she fell here, she must have realized that the Upside Down Man was lying to her, so she would definitely be more vigilant, and then prepare for the battle according to instinct. Everything is logical.

"I agree with your judgment, but at every intersection, we'd better stop and let me look for clues to confirm this inference."

To be on the safe side, Bobo made a little extra request.

Su Ming laughed. As expected, he still liked to act with smart tool people. He didn't need to explain too much, the little fu gorilla could keep up with his thinking.

"Good, but now something is coming towards us, get ready for a fight."

"Something? What is it?" Harley put her little hands over her eyes and tried to look into the distance, but the mountain of corpses in the distance once again blocked her sight: "I went out on a date with you yesterday. I didn’t bring Dorothy out.”

Dorothy was her big hammer.

"I don't know what it is specifically, but it's not small. Strangler felt the vibration when it ran." Su Ming put Harley and Bobo on the ground and asked them to hide behind him, and then took out a bag from his pocket. Bring the huge warhammer: "Do you know how to use power weapons? I have an ancient one-handed power hammer here."

The double-headed war hammer with a hammer handle over one meter long weighed about 500 kilograms. It was a two-handed weapon. When it was placed on the ground, it splashed a blue-white electric light.

But Harley doesn't care, as long as it's a hammer.

She smiled and grabbed the handle of the hammer, grunted a few times, and then with a sudden effort, she lifted it up and put it on her shoulders.

Pretending to wipe away the non-existent sweat, the woman exhaled:

"Those who use this kind of weapon as a one-handed hammer must be giants, right? Fortunately, I was captured by Darkseid before and used the super heavy hammer created by Apokolips technology. I discussed it with the editor at that time and gave it to I added a character setting that says 'I can handle anything with a hammer', otherwise I would be in trouble today."

"If you like it, I'll give you the hammer. Just stand back, it's coming."

In fact, there was no need for the death knell to remind Bobo and Harley that the thing was coming. Not only were the several black puddles on the ground rippled, but there were also corpses rolling down the mountain of corpses nearby.

Two seconds later, a giant beast larger than a mammoth rushed out from the corner of the canyon in front of him, charging towards him with a foul and fishy smell and a powerful momentum.

It looked like the carrion corpses of different beasts put together, and then painted with a layer of black mud to shape it. Just the moment they met, Su Ming saw in it the characteristics of various animals such as wolves, lions, rhinos, roosters, and jellyfish. .

In other words, this is a giant beast-like suture monster covered with tiny tentacles, with black flames coming out of its eyes.

The opponent had vision, and could clearly see that after the soles of its four legs decelerated and slipped, it continued to adjust its center of gravity with small steps backwards, and then got into the canyon, staring at the two people and the orangutan rushing over.

It opened its big mouth, as if it was roaring silently, but there was no throat visible in the black hole of the mouth, only thin threads of black mucus could be seen.

"The god-killer refuses to fight."

The four-legged rampaging thing, no matter what it is, is treated as a cavalry first.

The strength of the opponent is still unknown, but it is always right to find ways to reduce the speed of the cavalry.

The golden scimitar seemed to pop out of the waist bag into Deathstroke's palm in an instant, and then twisted and deformed, turning into a pile of staggered sharp wooden stakes, which were forcefully inserted into the ground by its owner.

The divine gold collided with the hard black stone ground, making a sound of gold and iron clashing, and sparks flying. However, under the huge power of the death knell, the stone could not stop this god-killing weapon.

Su Ming watched the black-smoking giant beast charging towards him and slowly exhaled.

He put his hand on Juma's back, and the strangulation caused the muscles under his armor to expand several times in an instant, preparing him for impact.
