In the dark and dry cave, the team ran quickly with the help of the magic stone lantern and the light of illumination.
After fifteen minutes of chasing, there was no trace of the flame monitor lizards that collapsed like a tide, but the blood stains on the ground clearly showed the direction of their escape.
Bang!
The terrain was uneven and full of rocks. He stumbled a bit. After staggering a few steps, he bumped into a stalactite pillar in front of him and almost fainted.
"Damn it, what kind of crappy place is this?"
The bearded man rubbed his forehead, complained, and kicked the stone pillar.
"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!"
Anthony growled. In fact, not only the beard, but also everyone in the team did not fall. In order to save time, the mages even used lighting spells, but the terrain was too difficult to walk.
Wow!
The disturbed dark red flame bats rushed out from time to time, leaving a large amount of bat droppings, which covered the heads and faces of the team, but no one cared about this now.
"Shhh, team stop, silence!"
Ebu, the assassin in charge of opening the way, said hello and quickly lay down on the ground.
No one asked much. What we have to do at this time is to stay quiet, replenish water, eat, and try to keep our body in the best condition to cope with the unexpected situation.
Downton took a sip of wine and listened carefully. Because of his solid foundation, as a war-level person, his physical fitness was nearly ten times higher than that of a magic user of the same level. Of course, his six senses were sharper. He had already heard it.
The faint sound of rushing was the sound of the underground river flowing.
“There’s an underground river nearby!”
After Ebu finished speaking, everyone's expressions were excited and solemn.
Water is the source of life for all things. If there is a river, it means there are plants and monsters. It is no accident that the 'lord' lives near the river.
"Everyone, please work harder. We might be able to find some precious magic potions." The deputy leader encouraged everyone and urged Ebu to hurry up.
The temporary members were very nervous about the upcoming boss battle, but when they saw the main players all looking excited, as if they were about to make a fortune, they were also infected.
More than twenty minutes later, everyone walked to a high cliff, and the sound of water became clearer.
"Illumination!"
Anthony waved his arm and ordered to stop.
The blue-haired mage raised his staff diagonally and fired a luminous ball towards the opposite side. As it rose into the sky, everyone saw the scene nearby.
This is a canyon nearly a hundred meters wide, with more than a dozen stone roads less than two meters wide connecting the two ends. However, most of them have been weathered and broken over time, and only two are left that can be walked.
"The terrain is too steep. It's definitely easy to defend but difficult to attack!"
Karimi looked down and saw that the canyon was too deep. He kicked a stone down, but there was no reply for a long time.
The DV female mage fired a lighting spell into the canyon, but when it went out, she still couldn't see the bottom.
"There should be an underground river below, I heard a sound."
As an assassin, Ebu has the sharpest ears. In fact, it is the archer Karim. Dongba has poor hearing. He said it is because he has been injured.
"Captain, this landscape doesn't look like it was formed naturally? Is it dangerous?" Lanfa was very worried. The stone road clearly showed traces of manpower digging with knives and axes.
"You don't think that there are no natives in such a huge lava secret realm, do you?" Anthony smiled, "If the natives are beautiful enough, you can sell them for a lot of money if you catch some!"
There is no doubt about this. A kind of sub-human native living in a secret realm owned by Saint Laurent. The beauty is no worse than that of elves, but it is prohibited to sell because the number of that ethnic group is too small. In this regard, the nine major
The empire is still doing a good job. They will try their best to ensure the continuity of a group and will not let it become extinct easily.
"I'm afraid your wish won't come true. These stone paths are too broken and there are no traces of anyone stepping on them, which means no one has been here for a long time."
Downton is building up his presence. As long as his performance is valuable, not to mention the amount of loot he will receive. If he encounters trouble, the first person the main force will rescue will definitely be members like him who have contributed to the team.
"good."
Of course Anthony could see it, so it was just to ease the tense atmosphere.
"Eb, find the widest and strongest stone road." Rebecca urged, and everyone was already wasted a lot of time.
"How do you choose between these? They are all shabby!" Ebu complained.
"Indeed, the stone road is weathered like this. In fact, it doesn't matter which one we choose. No matter how we pass it, it will have an impact on the group members behind."
De Niro, the bearded man who had been silent for a long time, stood on the edge of the cliff. After looking down, he flattered Anthony with a smile on his face, "I think it is best to be separated. The two of us can go the same way, even if Val is carrying a heavy
The weight of the armor is completely within the bearing range of the stone road."
"Then what principles are used to divide the stone roads?" Dongba rolled his eyes and was worried, not wanting to take the narrower ones.
"Come on, the roads are so bad, just choose whatever you want." Anthony was very generous and did not fight for a good road for the main force.
In fact, he also had selfish motives. If the whole team walked one way, then Lev would definitely fall behind in the second half because he was a paladin. When a part of the team walked through, the stone road would definitely be stepped on and become looser.
"Captain, this idea came from me. Do you think you can give me a little more when the spoils are divided at the end?" De Niro licked his face for a reward.
"What kind of idea is this? If you didn't tell me, I would have brought it up." Lev rolled his eyes at the bearded man angrily. He was too greedy for money.
"Stop talking nonsense and act quickly."
Anthony urged.
"Lev, let's go together." The bearded man approached the middle-aged knight, but unfortunately he didn't even glance at him.
"Hey, I'm with you."
Lev chose the DV female mage.
Downton discovered that the main players were not assigned according to their close relationship in the past, but were divided according to their occupations. Generally, there was a healer and a melee combatant. Like Anthony, the one who protected was the female priest.
"Let's go together!"
The blue-haired female mage walked to Downton and chose from the temporary members. She felt that Tang Zheng was the most reliable, followed by Karim. Both of them were the kind of men who provided protection for others. The young man was also good, but his strength was
Too bad, as for Dongba, that guy seems to be a selfish guy.
"No, are you trying to steal my target again?"
De Niro complained.
"Robbing? I think no one wants to team up with you."
A blue-haired man looks down on a bearded scumbag. He can't even take care of his wife and daughter. What kind of man is he?
"Don't waste time, act quickly."
Rebecca urged and was the first to set foot on the stone road. As the deputy leader, it was her duty to go first.
"Let's go together, otherwise we'll have to be alone."
De Niro had no choice but to get in front of the young man.
"Okay, but you have to go in front."
The young man is not stupid and knows to let De Niro step on the road first.
"Why are you all smarter than monkeys?"
The scumbag man complained and walked to the stone path on the far right. There was no way, everyone had occupied the nearby ones, and no one wanted to run to the side.
"I'll go first!"
Downton was very gentlemanly and did not let the female wizard take the lead.
Fortunately, this is not a canyon between mountains. There is no such strong mountain wind that makes people unable to stand. There is only a very weak airflow blowing up from the canyon. Perhaps it is mixed with water vapor, which makes the air become
It's moist.
Downton misses Jackson a little bit. If he was here, there would be no need to break through the rocky road on his own.
Although Rebecca urged several times, every team could not walk fast. After all, no one wanted to fall because of a momentary mistake. They had to check the road ahead several times before crossing.
Among the three mages, only the dv female mage has learned the elementary levitation technique, but she can only bless it for herself, so she wants to help but is powerless.
Rebecca and Anthony walked the fastest, but their companions behind them were slower. There was nothing they could do. The more they rushed, the more likely they would be impatient and get into trouble.
In the silent cave canyon, apart from the sound of falling gravel, there was only the sound of slow footsteps, but it was suddenly overwhelmed by a huge roar.
Boom!
The stone road under De Niro's feet suddenly collapsed, and he fell down. The shrill cry for help scared a group of annoying bats and flew out again.
"what happened?"
Anthony roared.
"He...he fell." The blood on the young man's face faded, and his heart almost jumped out of fear. "The stone road was too soft, and he crushed it with his foot."
"Okay, calm down, go back the way you came, and then come over from the other side." Rebecca comforted.
"Um!"
The young man felt extremely lucky. If he hadn't insisted on letting the scumbag man go ahead, he would have died.
"De Niro is so unlucky."
Dongba muttered, in such a high canyon, the bearded man would be dead.
"Leave him alone, watch your steps, and don't let anything happen again."
A good-for-nothing teammate died, and they were unfamiliar with it, so no one cared, so they focused more on their feet.
Downton sighed, and Juliet and her daughter were relieved.
After walking through the canyon, during the next thirty minutes of trekking, everyone clearly felt that they were walking downhill. Just when the team was still guessing how long it would take to reach the end, they turned a corner.
, my eyes suddenly opened up.
At the entrance of the cave thirty meters away, small insects with green light were flying. When everyone rushed over, the entire field of vision was filled with plants with fiery red flowers.
Fruits that are as bright as flames are growing on the flowers. As the occasional breeze blows, they will all bend down and create waves.
"Goddess, it's actually lava raspberries, and there are so many more?"
Rebecca lost her composure and murmured.
Lava raspberry is a plant that grows in extremely hot areas. Its fruit is a cherry. Although it is only the size of a cherry, its price is as high as more than 200,000 yuan because it is a high-grade potion material and contains rich fire elements.
, it is used in many advanced fire potion formulas.
"Make... make a fortune!"
Dongba stuttered because he was too shocked. After all, even the stupidest person knows that the sea of flowers found in front of him is a treasure worth over 100 million. (To be continued...)
