Chapter 754
: Continue moving forward on both sides of the canyon.
When they crossed this hole and were about to meet on the opposite side, the problem arose again.
They hadn't noticed it from a distance just now. When they came to the end of their respective roads, they discovered that a transparent wall blocked the road between them and also divided the passage in front of them into two sides.
Ronald looked up first.
Is this thing... the same as the one on top of your head?
"Dawn, what's going on over there?"
"I'm fine here, but what about your side?"
At the same time, Dawn and Seliere started shouting through the wall.
"Should we rejoin or go separately?"
"Let's try to go separately first!" "
If we lose contact for more than half an hour later, we will go back the same way and set off together again!"
The team is a support team in name after all, and The ultimate goal is also to explore the ruins.
So when it comes time to make a decision.
The two chose the most efficient way to separate routes, and also made basic crisis plans.
So, Ronald thought in his mind, 'Come on, come on, the most common scene in horror or adventure movies where they split up and then encounter a crisis is coming. 'when.
Their team was also completely split.
On one side, Megan is the center on the surface, but Ronald and Costat are actually dominant, and then there is a combination of Sellier and an escort.
On the opposite side, Professor Dawn was absolutely dominant, accompanied by three other guards.
This team is actually somewhat unbalanced.
After all, all the spell casters in the team are concentrated on one side.
However, due to some face and atmosphere issues, those in the team who cared about this issue did not raise any objections, while ordinary people were unaware of this, and the final result was decided.
At the beginning of entering the passage, people on both sides can still see each other's position through the transparent wall.
But after advancing almost a hundred meters.
The positions of the two groups of people gradually became farther apart, and the figures on the opposite side also quickly became blurred under this situation, and finally lost contact completely.
"I'll time it."
At this moment, Sellier in the team took the initiative to stand up.
The explorer was carrying a pocket watch, and when confirming the time, he tightened the spring to be safe.
After completing these actions, Selier secretly looked at Kostat as he put away his pocket watch.
Then he quickened his pace and walked directly to the front of the five-man team.
Acted as a pathfinder.
"..."
The atmosphere of the team here is actually a bit dull.
Ronald and Kostat didn't say much, Meghan was in awe of them and didn't dare to speak, and Sellier, who was walking in front, had no intention of speaking at all.
Only a confused guard was left.
He walked a few steps and looked back and forth at his companions, feeling that the atmosphere was extremely strange.
Fortunately, this torture did not last long.
After about five minutes of progress, Costart suddenly said:
"Sir, the road we are walking on is rising upwards."
"According to the current trend, in another seven minutes of progress, we will reach the point when we entered the waterfall. Altitude."
"Up?" This discovery made Ronald a little concerned.
You must know that according to the 'local characteristics', people in this world like to hide things underground. This is a factor that Ronald has experienced personally on several occasions.
But now...
is the gap between Entrod and Greed so big?
Even the architectural style has changed from underground to above ground?
At the same time, Sellier, who has entered the adventure mode, obviously has more ideas.
He believed Kostat's story without hesitation.
Then he quickly took out his pocket watch:
"We have spent five minutes and sixteen seconds now, and there is less than ten minutes left before the previously agreed time. If there is really any important discovery, then we'd better speed up now."
Ronald He nodded:
"Okay, let's hurry up then."
Ronald's words had almost the highest level of execution in the five-person team. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the other three people except the ordinary guards started trotting after him.
There was only one guard left in the team.
Naturally, there would be no other choice for such a companion.
...
The accelerated forward speed is not too exaggerated.
So one minute before the estimated time was completely stuck, the scenery in front of the five people suddenly became clear.
-They did come back to the ground.
——And there is a lush canyon in front of you.
The sun shines through the clouds below. Although the season is winter, the canyon still maintains a green scenery, and you can even see birds and insects moving around.
And in a position where the line of sight is relatively high.
Moss and vines crawled over the surrounding rocks and soil, and the faint outlines of some dilapidated buildings could be seen among them.
Ronald and the others should be heading in the right direction.
This place was obviously a ruins that had been abandoned for a long time. Even when they entered here, there were still traces of blasting from the previous exploration team at the entrance.
Gazing at the completely different scenery around him and in the tunnel just now, Megan couldn't help but ask:
"Are these the remains of the mud man?"
"It's a Nigar man." Selier corrected him immediately.
"..."
"Help...help!"
Suddenly, a cry came from the right side of the five people.
The clear pronunciation undoubtedly showed the identity of the other party. Ronald and the others looked at each other and immediately walked towards the place where the sound came from.
A horrifying scene soon appeared in front of us.
Close to the canyon, a young girl fell in the corner of the cliff, her lower body completely buried in the soil in the corner. She was almost lying on the ground. In addition to an opened backpack in front of her, there were many signs of struggle.
Just by seeing this scene, it was clear what happened before.
The girl trapped here could not escape, so she could only stay in this position to clean her supplies, and finally struggled here in despair.
"..."
At this time, the girl who called for help saw Ronald and others approaching.
The young girl glanced at Megan and immediately locked on Megan:
"Uncle Megan, it's me, help me!"
"Something is pressing down on my body and I can't get out!"
"... "
Ina? What's going on with you?"
"Where are the other people who came in with you now, and what did you encounter?"
Megan recognized this as a member of the previous exploration team.
Seeing the other party's current appearance, he immediately walked towards Ina.
After all, these are also companions in the camp, and Megan has no reason to continue to watch the other person being tortured indifferently.
"Just to be on the safe side!"
"I advise you not to come in contact with him!"
"..."
Just at this time.
Ronald's voice reminded Megan from behind.
The reason is also very simple -
because in his detection spell against humans, there were only five of them around...
