通過岩鼠獸人的長長地道，塔庫魯等一行人是來到了一個位於地下深處的半幽暗河谷
隨著一行人深入地道，鑿破岩壁的聲音愈來愈響，宛如某種巨獸在黑暗深處喘息。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvpXErzUnF
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZkTTGhUQX
每個人都不由得放輕了腳步，屏住呼吸，生怕一個不小心，腳步聲驚動潛伏在暗處的岩鼠獸人。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRt7AfsNFT
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIm1KvI1EK
坑道地面崎嶇難行，且因長年潮濕滑溜，加上岩鼠獸人的腳掌覆有細密短毛與鋒利爪刃，即便坡度陡峭，它們仍能如履平地。但除了塔庫魯以外的其他人，則必須邊走邊止滑，前進極為緩慢。半個鐘頭過去，一行人也僅僅深入數十公尺，離那不斷敲鑿的聲音，仍遠得令人沮喪。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pPe6eX66E
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh866NaYN2k
突然，來路後方傳來一聲震耳欲聾的巨響！44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj8yJtuWTB
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WDX3q0ujF
整條地道劇烈顫動，碎石如雨般墜落，多數都被塔庫魯厚重鐵甲擋在身後，還發出了低沉的撞擊聲。泰倫斯皺眉低語：「號角獸人發現我們了，他們應該是動用了重型器械要來挖開入口！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q5IjaBh5m
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L2FeMht7o
他話音未落，原本規律的鑿擊聲驟然停歇，取而代之的是一陣細碎急促的『喀搭』聲，由地道深處迅速接近。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYt6byDoOQ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC4jevlIlA
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqWyXC9mMU
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL4PSd9iNz
走在前方的公主轉身，秀髮在微光中微微晃動，聲音冷靜卻透著緊迫：「聽聲音，岩鼠獸人應該在另一條坑道，但若他們一旦進入上方的小房間，就會發現我們！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslyPZisnRV
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpYf8DE1fr
蓋達疑惑問：「為什麼一定會發現我們？」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2JeOFCbxg
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOJFeA42hf
「因為我身上帶著一節天魔王的骨骼。」公主神情凝重，壓低聲音解釋，「在隔壁坑道時，他們不容易察覺。但若靠近那間小房間，因為我們離那個小房間實在太近了，即便不用感應到天魔王的骨骼，憑著他們敏銳道感知能力，肯定是能發現到我們的動靜，那就更不用去直接感應到骨骼的存在了。」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUhZpN2Xl4
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AZ2tu7zb8
夸斯特聽到後立即下令：「加快行動！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMotb0iVDZ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xDzbgduFo
艾利歐特聽令，迅速領頭向下攀爬。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygCKmrWhnx
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVX3mA13Xs
地道轉折連連，不久便傳來上方激烈戰鬥聲。眾人皆知，號角獸人的武器識長柄鋼刺，這種長形兵器在這在彎曲地道中肯定是要上大虧，交戰局勢必對他們極為不利。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchIVtcXJTx
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWtFM4vJ1K
而此刻，艾利歐特的聲音也傳來：「前方有兩條分岔路！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuZtI24JNI
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgoSjIfKpb
夸斯特果斷的説：「走左邊！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTukkjVdqnc
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMev89O82k
隊伍調整方向，垂降進入左側通道。坡度已陡過四十五度，若非身上青環索連結，且塔庫魯以吸附能力穩固最後方，大夥早已滾落深淵。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV59wj43VS
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO0h6sCuzQ
也或許是因塔庫魯鐵甲緊貼岩壁，天魔王骨骼的氣息未向後擴散，使得隊伍得以一邊喘氣，一邊繼續下潛。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsSpmrHupd
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJeqK1AZje
時間在緊繃中流逝，一個多小時後，上方戰鬥聲逐漸遠去，窸窣聲響也往另一方向偏移，最終歸於死寂。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtdil6JEud
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHj41SSmwt
眾人終於得以稍微鬆口氣。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWwvxcTk2j
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAjZCwH81j
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI4j27WB8g
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvszfEk3Pw
然而，眼前卻出現新障礙：一道巨大的鐵門，靜靜矗立在前方。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c7uYnJKpK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9mWMIoh0Y
門前有一片略為開闊的空地，眾人疲憊地靠著石壁坐下喘息。夸斯特仔細察看鐵門，發現上方隱藏著一個觀視孔，便單眼貼上去窺探外頭情形。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNN1tAbZCp
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyI5W0IDOq
外面是一片被高聳山壁圍繞的河谷便映入眼簾。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8xe8IEvDM
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNteJBPhruq
儘管陽光只能穿過谷頂細縫灑下微光，但已足以看清谷中景物：蜿蜒的河道，濃密的叢林，與兩岸不規則生長的矮木與藤蔓。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSsCMdB8bm
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8MJeU9bOE
夸斯特轉身低聲說：「外面是河谷，有光，地形安全，我們可以離開這座地道了。」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSblYMjPGZx
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wVKCUlAyv
公主湊過來偷看一眼，眉頭輕皺，謹慎問：「現在就出去嗎？大家體力消耗嚴重，是否稍作休整？」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTGl7AOpJR
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmkPq75p2i
夸斯特點頭：「正合我意，休息一刻，然後出發。」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxKbpFRaBu
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH4x4xFBx4
但話音剛落，上方地道又響起急促的窸窣聲，距離明顯逼近！44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1CHnDFIHf
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaQVeXMWyu
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF9Me2R3LF
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCyzaQbJCR
眾人對視一眼，氣氛驟然緊繃。夸斯特與蓋達飛快過去轉動鐵門圓環，但沉重的機構紋絲不動。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQcvJlPIUq
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TkrSvLTd7
泰倫斯一拍塔庫魯鐵甲肩膀：「換你來！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsx9oGE6yf
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80ysSIF7hv
塔庫魯沉著走上前，與蓋達合力轉動，『喀搭』一聲，鎖機終於解開，鐵門緩緩滑動，『況噹』巨響震動整片山壁！44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmJ7vUzPBk
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFV7j1P7u3c
岩鼠獸人的細碎腳步聲，幾乎已貼近耳際。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWMJDvlMei
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLED0vVJYNf
夸斯特迅速揮手，艾利歐特與泰達衝出門外警戒，確認安全後招手示意。其餘人迅速魚貫而出。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEOWobCmgI
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmK39w8jQR
塔庫魯作為殿後，目光一掃，只見一群面貌猙獰的岩鼠獸人現身地道盡頭。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjmeJgJh4N
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxh0N5njm8
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2r2jVYBWL
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqh8E5Bvvz
牠們頭顱扁平，似海象與鼠類的混合體，口中伸出八根鋸齒狀長牙，兩根最長的扁平牙齒內側還帶有縱向支撐骨柱，令人毛骨悚然。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLwHhVn8fA
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk7fobWTlo
塔庫魯心中感到一陣惡寒，猛然地關上鐵門，以背脊緊貼抵住，對方要是想闖出來，他會用強大的力量將這門死死抵住。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHd254Pcw6
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3soGrJlhA0
但是讓人意外的是，岩鼠獸人並未試圖強攻，反而從內側『喀喀』地將鐵門重新上鎖，似乎有意封閉這條道路。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX1nalSB0L
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9VKqbVa0X
泰倫斯眉梢一挑，低語：「塔庫魯，先頂住，我去前方偵查。」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppYEUdlSd2
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWt6rCQJi7
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cFNDE2Prg
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DArgDW9xx
鐵門外的平台狹小僅如籃球禁區，四周以巨石築起矮牆防護。蹲低身形後，谷中動靜一覽無遺，卻無人能察覺這小隊的存在。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvpD5ojZyG
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4apnYY3jr
河谷約有十多公尺寬，對岸山壁巍峨，陽光從谷頂灑下，照亮河道與叢林，部分地帶綠意盎然，映襯出生命的頑強。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5uM60ABa0
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZmKv2d03Z
寂靜中，夸斯特下令：「前進！」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1QGt0gacD
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYacFZvmTYZ
隊伍改由泰倫斯與艾利歐特擔任先鋒，小心沿著狹窄山徑緩步下降。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLwrKf8D1l
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlN1u8nPNQ
坡度不大，但曲折蜿蜒，山徑在高度上距離河岸尚有二十多公尺高。起初一切平靜，警覺逐漸鬆懈。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ9uDHGxCM
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKSc19NVS0
唯獨塔庫魯，保持著特遣隊特有的冷冽直覺。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRB05RaT6Q
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS0453EMzH
他察覺到，有什麼東西，在叢林暗影中悄悄跟隨。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkMvY2MmrN
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL4QtsW37L
他側頭俯視，只見靠近山壁的叢林光線昏暗，葉片蒼黃參雜著墨綠，濃密而錯落，難以窺探內部動靜。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvBeaTmJPW
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb94sg0Tj6Z
但直覺告訴他，那裡面，藏著危險。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ2cR0sp6O
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49Gtt8jmEe
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaftUrLi6r
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG2XFeUhMO
當步道漸漸降低至距離地面僅四公尺高之時，塔庫魯的神經繃緊到了極致。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivhfrTu2wK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIuwSENPIl
突如其來，一道暗影從叢林竄出，如利箭般撲向走在塔庫魯前方的蓋達！44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXEjQcEuxV
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dRwPisuj2
塔庫魯毫不猶豫，怒喝一聲，長柄鐵斧閃電般劈出！44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIw6T8ZpXf
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a6AryLuGL
只見一隻透明的怪物在半空中被重重砍中，血花飛濺。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXzlIzrtmK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNX57JyBAP
原本幾乎隱形的身軀，在血液潑灑之下，逐漸顯露出可怖的真面目——44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7yOHyzQ7K
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQgsCUvFTx
那是一隻有著細長如迅猛龍的身形，覆蓋著暗灰色鱗片，頭顱如暴龍，血盆大口張開間利齒閃爍寒光。背後還有一排棘龍般的脊鰭，前肢長而有力，爪子鋒銳如刀。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJesOf263N7
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvczABO7g6p
看到這怪物猙獰的模樣，眾人倒吸一口涼氣，望向塔庫魯的眼神也多了幾分敬畏。夸斯特低聲道：「這河谷……遠比我們想的危險。」44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA64DTivqp
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx7Egs4sSl
一場血與火的生死激戰，即將在這異世界的河谷間爆發。44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4gGjDFIAe
