In the vast underground world, goblins are famous for their large numbers.
Raymond remembered a proverb that goes like this: If there was no killing, the whole world would become food for goblins!
At the end of the nearly month-long journey, the beast cart passed by a goblin gathering point. When he looked at the weak and thin little goblins playing in the mud, Raymond remembered this sentence, and then he
He spoke casually.
But what shocked Raymond was that this proverb greeted the coachman's sigh. "Don't underestimate these dirty and ugly goblins. They had a glorious life a long time ago. They almost became the heroes of the underground world."
ruler!"
Raymond was a bit disapproving of the coachman's sigh. In his understanding, the goblins were just cheap employees of the Wizarding Academy. They guarded human gathering places like the Wizarding Academy in exchange for the food provided by the wizarding organization.
Of course, nominally these goblin tribes are the most important allies of Hongze Wetland Wizard Academy.
But these green-skinned goblins can only rely on their large population and, after being properly armed by the wizard academy, become cheap hired workers who need blood and lives to provide rich resources for the wizards.
In Raymond's understanding, that's all.
On the third day after the beast cart left the hilly area, the comfortable and monotonous journey of Raymond and others ended. Not far from where everyone was standing now was a place shrouded in fog. According to the map provided by the black market
It shows that behind this foggy area is the first target of Raymond and others, which is an area suitable for second-level apprentices to enter.
When they were choosing where to enter, Felix and Raymond had a dispute. According to Felix's idea, they would directly enter an area suitable for third-level apprentices.
Because according to time calculation, everyone will be the first batch to enter, so the harvest will definitely be very rich.
But Raymond insisted on entering from here, not entirely because of Rebecca, but because Raymond would instinctively choose a relatively safe way. Since it is an expedition-type resource collection, it means that risks still exist.
.
Although Felix's strength has reached the peak of the third-level apprentice, this does not mean that he can order Raymond, so under Raymond's insistence, Felix still compromised.
After leaving the beast cart, everyone entered the fog. Under their feet was the rough sandy ground, and the moist fog made people feel as if they had fallen into water. They were all wet, but their sight was blocked by the fog.
But I didn't encounter any living creatures in the mist.
It was not until two days later that after walking through the fog, Raymond also noticed that the ground was sloping downward. When the fog became thinner, a wasteland-like landscape appeared in front of everyone, and the gravel under his feet also turned into
The dark black humus soil and a faint fishy smell filled the air.
After leaving the foggy area, Raymond and others entered the wasteland after taking a short rest.
But after entering the wasteland, Raymond and others felt as if they had entered a wilderness. Everything they could see was low and sparse vegetation. There were no living things, no insects, not even some common birds in the underground world.
, and disappeared.
In this empty and dead environment, the strong feeling of heart palpitations made everyone lose interest in talking. It was not until the sharp-eyed Erifo discovered the first valuable medicinal herb that this depressing atmosphere was eliminated.
break in.
This medicinal herb hidden in the bushes was first discovered by Erivo when everyone was taking a rest.
The Gray Blood Grass, which is about an inch long and has only six or seven light gray leaves, is the main material for making powerful hemostatic medicine. Although every ten plants are only worth a low-level magic stone, with the discovery of this herb,
Raymond also understood the true value of this wilderness!
Gray blood grass for making hemostatic potions, orchid flowers for making sober potions, and ground bamboo roots for refining potions that increase element affinity...
As Raymond and others gradually went deeper, many useful plants for wizards were discovered one after another. Although they did not grow in large patches, the area here was vast, and the amount available for picking was extremely considerable.
Collecting these useful things along the way, everyone gradually became happy. However, on the third day when everyone entered the wasteland, danger also came inadvertently.
The reason is very simple. When Louisa was picking an orchid flower, she was so excited that she didn't notice the huge wild bee nest hidden in the bushes.
Therefore, because Luisa's picking movements were too large, the swarm of wild bees that suddenly rose from the bushes immediately made Raymond and others understand the risks here.
Each wild bee in the underground world is larger than a baby's fist, and the sharp tail needles of wild bees also contain powerful bee venom. After being attacked by three or more wild bees, ordinary people will be paralyzed due to general paralysis.
And death.
A swarm of wild bees suddenly appeared in everyone's sight, emerging from the bushes like a blanket. This first attack also put the newly formed team to the test.
Louisa, who was completely frightened by the wild bee, was rescued by Rebecca who approached her and was quickly pulled away from the bushes.
Raymond's ice pick, Felix's flames, and Allivo's magical attacks completely covered the area when Louisa escaped from the bushes.
The sudden encounter reached its peak in a matter of seconds.
The sound of the spell when the spell was being cast and the flapping of the wings of the furious wild bees were mixed together in a frightening way, but immediately afterward, only the explosive sound of the spell was left, echoing in the wilderness.
.
After being attacked by Raymond and the others' spells regardless of loss, the bush was completely overturned, and the huge beehive was directly ignited and burned to ashes. The even larger queen was killed by Lei Meng before she could escape.
Meng's ice pick pierced through the hole and killed him immediately.
Therefore, although all the furious wild bees were not killed in the first wave of attacks, they lost their command after the death of the queen bee. Only a few sporadic wild bees broke into the defense line of Raymond and others, and there would be no
Eliver, who was protected by the protective force field, was stung, and the wild bee swarm began to retreat on a large scale, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
The confrontation ended in just a few seconds. The only one who was stung, Erivo, became the only victim of this incident. The place where he was stung became red and swollen, and the severe pain made him roll on the ground in pain, just like an ordinary person.
