Priul and Brutus held torches and came to the entrance of the mine tunnel again. Brutus searched around, but did not find the two team members who had been arranged before.
"Follow me." Priul motioned to Brutus to follow him.
They walked to a bush, Priul handed the torch to Brutus, and then pulled out from the bush a corpse with a smashed head.
After carefully examining the body, Priul took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands: "It is estimated that he died almost two hours ago. There are no other wounds on his body. It seems that he died from a severe head injury."
"There is another man." Brutus shined a torch nearby, but found nothing.
"We'll look for him later. He's probably in trouble." Puliure took back the torch, "Let's go and rescue the village guards first."
The two walked into the passage, and Brutus smelled a vague smell of blood.
"Do you know what the magicians call this kind of bug?" Puliul pulled out the long sword on his belt, "It is said that there are many such things in the desert of Hadas, so it is called Hadas sandworm.
"
"Is it possible that this kind of bug was artificially created?" Brutus asked, thinking of the records he had seen before.
"Of course." Puliul inserted the long sword into the rock wall seemingly casually and quickly pulled it out. "Perhaps those who study black magic will have some experience. They always like to pour some magic elements into it.
Among living things, another catastrophic creature was created.”
Puliul would insert his long sword into the rock wall every once in a while. "However, the appearance of this kind of sandworm here is indeed a bit curious. Unfortunately, this matter does not require serious thinking. As long as it is destroyed, my
The characters are basically solved.”
"What are you going to do?"
"Of course, kill it directly." Puliure's tone sounded so matter-of-fact.
As they got closer and closer to the underground hall, the two stopped chatting and moved forward in silence. The source of the smell of blood seemed to be here. As soon as they came out of the passage, their noses were filled with the strong smell of killing.
The torches here were not completely extinguished. Brutus looked around but found no valuable clues.
"Go that way." Priul standing next to him pointed at the entrance with his sword, and walked straight up without paying any attention to Brutus.
The two of them walked in the passage, Brutus maintained a high degree of vigilance, while Priul seemed very relaxed.
"Did you hear that?" Priul suddenly slowed down and said to Brutus without looking back.
"Huh?" Brutus calmed down and listened to the nearby movements, "You mean that rustling sound?"
"This is the wonderful sound of gold crawling on the ground." Puliul showed an incomprehensible smile, "Let's go up. Then you just have to protect yourself and don't be swallowed by it."
Brutus didn't understand how much the so-called sandworm had to do with gold, but he certainly understood the danger. He threw the torch he was holding on the ground with his right hand and pulled out the dagger hanging on his belt.
"Are you ready?" Puliou still looked calm and calm.
"Ready." Brutus held the handle of the shield with his left hand, and continued to move forward with Priul in tandem.
They walked for a few minutes and arrived at the exit of this passage. Brutus remembered clearly that this was not the way to the previous mine. They should have arrived at a place they had never been to before.
"Don't be scared by that guy." Puliul threw away the torch in his left hand, took out a scroll, held the long sword in front of him in his right hand, and walked forward in a defensive posture.
Brutus followed closely and passed through the hole into a huge underground space.
"Come on, let's see how big this guy is." Priul threw the scroll in his hand into the distance, "[Illumination]!"
As this spell was uttered that Brutus could not understand at all, the scroll thrown by Priul exploded in the air. A strong light emitted from the center of the explosion, and then shot out to all directions, completely illuminating the underground space.
.
Brutus put his right hand in front of his eyes to avoid being blinded by the sudden strong light. After a while to adjust, he looked into the distance.
A huge crimson insect coiled in the center like a snake. Brutus simply estimated that the diameter of this guy's body was about three meters, and the length was at least more than thirty meters.
They are approximately less than forty meters apart.
The sandworm has no vision, so it is completely unaffected by strong light. However, it is very sensitive to the surrounding sounds. The moment Puliul issued the spell, it raised its front end like a snake and rushed straight towards the direction of the sound.
Priul also opened his eyes again the moment after the strong light exploded, and rushed towards the sandworm.
The long sword in his hand glowed with a faint but real golden light. If Brutus hadn't been sharp-eyed, it would have been difficult for him to distinguish this light from the reflection of the bronze sword itself.
Priul's speed was getting faster and faster, as if he was walking on the wind. He laid his sword flat, as if he planned to stab the sandworm's body directly with the charge.
The speed of the sandworm is not slow either. It does not crawl on the ground, but directly relies on its length like a spring to rush towards Priul.
When the two were only ten steps apart, Priul stepped heavily on the ground with his right foot, tilted his whole body and jumped to the left, as if he was going to attack from the right side of the sandworm. But just when Brutus thought so
At that moment, Priul's left foot seemed to step on an invisible wall of air, and then disappeared in mid-air.
"Let me go, what kind of skill is this?" Brutus asked in surprise, looking around for Priul's figure.
The sandworm lost its target in a short moment. It emitted a harsh sound wave from an unknown part of its body, and then locked its target on Brutus who was watching the show.
"?" Brutus felt bad when he heard the sound waves emitted by the sandworm. When he saw the sandworm rushing towards him, his heart was filled with C language. He estimated the size between himself and the sandworm.
gap, I immediately decided to turn around and start running.
"Now I finally know why you took me with you." Brutus ran as fast as he could in the passage, but the sandworm behind him was still getting closer and closer, and it was swarming in the passage.
The constant movement makes the already unstable passage even more worrying, and a few pieces of gravel will fall from time to time.
"We can't run away anyway, so why not fight for it."
Brutus turned back again, and after confirming that there was only a few meters between them, he stopped and twisted his body to throw the shield in his hand into the sandworm's mouth, and followed the flying shield towards the sandworm.
