Chapter 697:
The forward speed increases linearly while the corpse is flying in the underground space.
In just a few minutes, Ronald and the other three descended to the bottom of this dark tunnel.
The dark underworld.
Costart holds up this soft light that can attract almost any eye.
But with an absolutely powerful force in terms of force, their simple team doesn't care much about being noticed.
It is here that the underground river branches off into two tunnels.
The river continued to flow towards one side, but there was no water flowing in from the other side, and it seemed to gradually return to the structure of an ordinary cave.
"..."
"Go to the left."
Even if the guy he was dealing with was not a human being, Ronald felt that the opponent would not set up a camp along the underground river.
Simply make a judgment call and move on.
Later facts proved that Ronald was right.
Almost a hundred meters into the tunnel, this special environment brought sounds from farther away to their ears.
Costart spoke as before:
"Sir, did you hear that?"
"Well..."
Ronald nodded slightly.
Although the sound coming from the tunnel was somewhat distorted and the movement was very small, he could still barely distinguish the information of metal collision.
"Maybe the people who came in before were fighting."
"The sound sounded a bit like the collision of weapons during a battle."
"..."
Ronald and Costat quickly exchanged opinions.
Hull, the only one in the team who could not notice this, remained silent obediently.
We've been together for a few days.
This little girl has fully realized the abilities of the two people around her.
So although she didn't hear anything, she still showed understanding of the situation.
When talking and moving on.
Costat slightly adjusted the light source in his hand to make this spell more suitable for the narrow environment of the underground tunnel.
Just walk in the direction of the sound.
It was quite a deep distance again, and when even the surrounding temperature began to rise significantly, the scene in the three people's field of vision suddenly widened.
it's here.
Costart doesn't even need lighting.
After walking out of the tunnel, there is an open space as far as the eye can see. Countless dark red columns run up and down here, and they emit dark red light that colors every corner.
Ronald's eyes narrowed.
These things that look like pillars contain powerful magic fluctuations, and ordinary spellcasters may not have this ability.
Look at this endless amount...
How many things have been hidden in the Yoiz Forest in the past few months?
Ronald frowned, and Costat immediately stepped forward to check, and almost immediately came to the conclusion:
"Sir, this is very much like the rhizome of a plant."
"There is a high-temperature liquid flowing in it, and the magic wave and light are also flowing in it." It comes from this."
"..."
"Plants..."
Ronald looked thoughtful.
They were obviously approaching the mother mentioned by the 'tree spirit' at this moment. The thing like a plant root in front of them confirmed the situation from the side.
Just refer to the number of rhizomes here.
The so-called mother is definitely not that small.
Ronald couldn't help but think of his experience in the [Infinite Negative Number Field].
Forget about things like the Springs Sea Monster, if the creature hiding under Yoiz can reach the size of Paproll's original size.
So this trip.
You may encounter a very difficult enemy.
"Hmm?"
Just as Ronald was thinking about whether to change his attitude towards exploration, another detail was discovered by his keen eyesight.
At the front left of this space.
Something seemed to have fallen to the ground there.
"Costat, follow me."
He turned around and walked over there, and something hidden in the dark red environment appeared in front of him.
Here lay two bodies.
Two corpses that looked almost identical to humans fell to the ground, with very obvious penetrating injuries on their bodies. Beside them, two scimitars suitable for chopping fell to the ground. It was obvious that there had been a fight before.
"Sir, look..."
Ronald squatted down to examine the deceased, and Costart spoke to remind him.
In fact, not far away, the inconspicuous blood stains on the ground were disappearing on the soil - this was not blood seeping into the soil.
It's these radiant roots around them.
Actively absorb the blood around them into the body.
"..."
Ronald frowned and stood up.
He is not a very rigid person. Beasts in the wild will attack humans. This is just a normal part of their beastly life. From the perspective of biological eating, there is no problem at all.
But this rhizome absorbs blood directly.
Sure enough, it is still easy to think of some evil legends.
How many things are included in the "Organic Encyclopedia" to arbitrarily transform such a plant?
"They were only dead for less than half an hour."
After telling his companions what he had discovered, Ronald immediately walked ahead and continued deeper underground.
Half an hour -
such a time difference, they can catch up quickly with their pace.
The real battle should not be far away.
At this moment, Costart, who was also aware of their situation, spoke:
"Sir, do you need me to put away the spell?"
"..."
This is a very real question.
If they had started from their own strength before, there would be no problem in moving forward without any scruples.
But things have changed now, and light naturally exists in the environment.
Costart's measures to continue to maintain the light can indeed be withdrawn.
Ronald nodded quickly:
"Cancel the spell first."
"It's better to be careful now."
Ronald checked the bodies one last time. There were many wounds on the two men, but the fatal injuries were all penetrating wounds to the neck. The weapons also left traces of collisions with hard objects.
Analyze from these aspects.
It can be seen that the enemies they fight use a very frequent and high attack rate, and they also have a very accurate hit rate.
Confirm the details and move on.
Although the environment of this underground space full of plant roots is monotonous, the area is surprisingly large. Carefully looking for traces of the previous group of people, Ronald and the others walked far away, but they could not even see the location of the cave wall.
A cave of this size can at least hold a lake. It can be said to be a miracle that it did not collapse.
And in this state.
After advancing another hundred meters, Ronald finally heard some noise again.
So he immediately turned his head slightly.
Just ahead, a pleasant voice reached his ears.
"Humans, you are such an interesting species."
"This is obviously a gift from God to all living beings, but out of interests and desires, you say this is your human thing?" "
Hahaha, it's so interesting."
