A thick gray smoke was rolling up from the bottom of the cave entrance, but after the smoke reached the original position of the blue crystal, it strangely stopped spreading to the surroundings.
The gray smoke that quickly became thicker seemed to be trying to block the entrance of the hole. After it stopped rising, it began to quickly gather at the location of the original blue crystals.
Raymond, whose pupils were flashing red dots, immediately asked the chip to start probing and analyzing when he saw this. However, Jonas, who was still retreating sharply, immediately let out an excited roar. "Oh my God! It turned out to be
Maintenance rare wizard tower!"
Following Jonas's roar, the protective force field that gathered crazily at the original location of the blue crystal also completely revealed its appearance.
The surging force field fluctuated, causing light to refract around the entrance of the cave, and the powerful * movement that spread over also made everyone breathless.
But the tauren Cyril, who reacted equally quickly, appeared in front of Jonas at the same time as the force field ripples were generated. He burst out with a huge aura, protecting both Jonas and Winnie.
Behind him.
Jonas, who stopped, quickly moved his hands on his chest, and soon he condensed a huge fireball, which hit the gray smoke that was gradually solidifying without hesitation.
In an instant, the fireball that hit the gray smoke exploded. In a strange "squeaking" sound, the gray smoke that had stopped rolling and rising immediately started to emit a sharp scream under the cover of flames.
The sound quickly turned into wisps of fly ash in the flames and dispersed.
When Jonas's fire spells gathered together, Raymond activated the detection function of the chip. Just when the flames were about to be completely extinguished, the chip's analysis of the gray smoke finally appeared in his sight.
.
"An inexplicable lepidopteran insect with a body length of 0.2 mm, no living features, and unknown characteristics."
He quickly enlarged the photo taken by the chip, and soon a complete three-dimensional view of the insect's three-dimensional form appeared in Raymond's sight.
Two pairs of gray membranous wings, plus eight pairs of weird gastropods, although overall it has the characteristics of a lepidopteran insect, the shriveled head, sunken compound eyes, and even the body missing a large number of gastropods show that,
This moth-like insect has already lost its life and has been dead for many years!
When Raymond finished checking the data, the flame controlled by Jonas was still burning in the place of the original blue crystal. The gray smoke composed of moth mummies continuously spewed out from below, and gradually changed into
It became thinner, and eventually the flame lost the support of combustible substances and was extinguished unsustainably.
Faced with the excited look in Jonas's eyes, Raymond didn't understand the meaning of his previous words for a while, but Jonas immediately shouted. "Lord Raymond, how long has this ruin existed?"
It may be beyond imagination, and the harvest this time will be shocking!”
Facing the excited Jonas, Raymond was a little confused for a moment, but seeing that Jonas was already walking towards the opened passage, Raymond hesitated and followed him quickly.
A large hole with a diameter of one meter appeared where the blue crystal had originally been. There were still plant roots spawned by the spell on the four walls of the cave. Although there were still wisps of gray smoke rising from below, the concentration was the same.
The number has been much reduced.
However, in the gaps between plant roots and stones below the cave entrance, many agglomerates of these moth mummies have appeared, and they are still spreading on the stone wall, as if they want to repair the big hole.
Standing at the entrance of the cave, Jonas laughed and re-condensed a ball of flame. Under his control, he began to clean up the solidified gray lumps. Along with the smell of burnt plants and a faint fishy smell, they were quickly burned.
Once the cave passage is cleared, it will be completely passable.
When Jonas started to clean up these attachments on the cave wall, Raymond broke off a small piece of gray attachment from the cave wall and observed it carefully with the help of the chip.
With his head lowered, Raymond saw an image of countless insect corpses stacked up in his sight. These insect corpses with shriveled bodies and no moisture were all stuck together after being stacked. Their hardness was no lower than ordinary stones.
.
Moreover, the gaps between these insect corpses are extremely small, which not only prevents the penetration of water, but also makes it very difficult for air to pass through!
"Lord Raymond, the mummy of this moth is not aggressive in any way," Jonas, who quickly cleaned up the passage leading below, introduced with some excitement when he saw Raymond studying this gray substance.
"But this is an extremely rare passive defense method in ancient wizard towers. If it is not cleared in time, this passage will soon be blocked, and its strength will be even stronger than ordinary stones!"
"The mummy of a moth?" As Raymond twisted his fingers, the gray thing in his hand didn't respond at all. A somewhat confused Raymond turned his attention to Jonas. "Lord Jonas, what about these?
How does the mummy of a moth have such characteristics? Is it the function of witchcraft?"
Shaking his head, Jonas sighed with admiration. "The reason why these moth mummies have such effect has not been solved until now, but the age of the wizard tower with such protective measures must be
Very long ago.”
Raymond, who had already asked the chip to analyze the agglomerate of the moth mummies in his hand, couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. "Lord Jonas, there is no doubt about the power of ancient wizards, so does it represent this
Has the risk of ruin exploration increased?"
"Jie Jie, no way!" Jonas, who showed excitement on his face and laughed, rejected Raymond's speculation. "The more ancient wizard ruins contain such moth mummies, the greater the internal risks.
According to the statistics of the Relics Exploration Association, the discovery of such a relic generally means that its risk level has dropped by one level, but the benefits that can be obtained from it will be beyond imagination!"
Unlike Jonas' excitement, although Raymond's expectations for the possible harvest had increased, Raymond, who remained calm, just nodded and walked to the entrance of the passage to start observing.
The thickness of the surrounding stones in the straight downward passage is more than two meters, but everything underneath seems to be able to block the line of sight. It is impossible for Raymond to see anything inside... (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature
