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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSdKPhbVOc
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng99wwiqLq
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfbYOxviyt
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HhpgUm4I4
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIYEHfDeTa
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuCQrIQh5Q
突然，來路後方傳來一聲震耳欲聾的巨響！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWA0RG2LQp
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcknC0EeHpj
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！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg9Z9gUXXx
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiV7CLbKGE
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9AvhcRv09
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeYmj7wlWi
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6FDyGlxDz
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9HDmiBPfH
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！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEdzJwlAMH
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13Yyae6r0S
蓋達疑惑問：「為什麼一定會發現我們？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsivlGnhOy
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV5kIyiLRj
「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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwMuv07Tls
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjT0R6a4Qjp
夸斯特聽到後立即下令：「加快行動！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozvMARg7Pw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQMBU0Oh6z
艾利歐特聽令，迅速領頭向下攀爬。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrykZFz9QzX
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vFNzYP8uZ
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYYjv1fSnT
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt68CZXk4U7
而此刻，艾利歐特的聲音也傳來：「前方有兩條分岔路！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASHGjSRGDl
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1xrb2VRN3
夸斯特果斷的説：「走左邊！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3zkeYOamy
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zJHVuDKo9
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvsaClRNoE
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9vVj8AYCk
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35IDlmrTZR
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCT8A0qz0W
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJhyScXTCB
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2PEqbzy1M
眾人終於得以稍微鬆口氣。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOzLy7kJEE
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUh5LMIKsT
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEHybf54qh
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgDPCLUcaP
然而，眼前卻出現新障礙：一道巨大的鐵門，靜靜矗立在前方。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VJrCDESG7
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzx2YfHdN5
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNjszqwKBF
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvYAa7wq5S
外面是一片被高聳山壁圍繞的河谷便映入眼簾。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8W7eYkDfM
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24KHyhOfsu
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0v5wCCBes
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69vvbwOokn
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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehTmIDAHab
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSZGikFbma
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？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQQcjXXHtR
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAlMvQCXlz
夸斯特點頭：「正合我意，休息一刻，然後出發。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNCMHEDVad
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPraRUBKpml
但話音剛落，上方地道又響起急促的窸窣聲，距離明顯逼近！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisqiXzZaQ4
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtAdcFMMKF
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MNzVMefX3
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKQKqrCBMN
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMF1T47ify4
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmtMiuNZGz
泰倫斯一拍塔庫魯鐵甲肩膀：「換你來！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesWPLG22RY
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa51JjJ8Xbx
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！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboGaXcrbaQ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67wWGsilDr
岩鼠獸人的細碎腳步聲，幾乎已貼近耳際。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsdwH4Wy4y
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqGVSeGaYR
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5nRQL5gbe
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0kwHP49bi
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvogrFoLMOK
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm3D3oO1ub
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhdIYgKtmW
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJArnhja6fr
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPo2E9yLBsA
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14Mxs6xA1o
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOPdniGoO7
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5txATv3or
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1geIJFuhsU
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3dovuohsr
泰倫斯眉梢一挑，低語：「塔庫魯，先頂住，我去前方偵查。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehx2SLN5Hf
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCeU0Tukzi
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDCORhIymb
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuXbZwwcmb
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeQgjrU8K8
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jX7PSqISi
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡag5E2Pn5xQ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3UXavUvbe
寂靜中，夸斯特下令：「前進！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZIlO65Bxd
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2f42N13V6
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1QsFj6awb
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmwmITXWM6
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElDH9QdYiQ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoValcC0PPF
唯獨塔庫魯，保持著特遣隊特有的冷冽直覺。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dw8O6uhqd
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDFlbYw8jV
他察覺到，有什麼東西，在叢林暗影中悄悄跟隨。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr57lnumEr6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOfCJ3pvA0
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5UFMYLUBY
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXBLwaW0e4
但直覺告訴他，那裡面，藏著危險。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWCD7ClSyq
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtC576tf0j
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdYJUaPBD9
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7nImnMP7n
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsksKMYSwHW
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts4SE7LLqT
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！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioK2FGY6I1
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75h15w235E
塔庫魯毫不猶豫，怒喝一聲，長柄鐵斧閃電般劈出！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4qcM7wS2V
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ly9Z3IsoJ
只見一隻透明的怪物在半空中被重重砍中，血花飛濺。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9hTt49R6o
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOxhWHHhAL
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——51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3ugwUL8Jn
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qQ3NWPZ9o
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVz1yDSdmK
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3mVdL04Je
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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPlJf4irMn
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFnPWoKbJP
一場血與火的生死激戰，即將在這異世界的河谷間爆發。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZXuxSvkAB
