Although in the battle just now, everyone's loss was not large, after arranging the defense matrix, everyone still rested for a quarter of an hour before continuing on the road.

Of course, it was Fernan who was at the forefront, but maybe there was a battle or ...... At the bottom of the harvest, he was very enthusiastic this time. However, the order of the teams has changed, with Merlin in last place.

This is for security reasons...... Of course, Melanie's safety, those demonized creatures don't know when to get out of the stone wall, and they must be stronger in the middle of the team than at the end of the team.

For this, Merlin didn't care very much, Augustus's spiritual power could be explored in all directions without dead ends, and if there was a slight energy fluctuation, it would warn in time. It's a pity that those witch pets can't be easily exposed, otherwise there is no need to worry about safety at all.

But safety can't be completely dependent on others, and Merlin herself is also very cautious, always paying attention to the movements around her. She tried her best to shrink her breath, often making Melanie feel as if there was no one behind her. glanced back from time to time and found that Merlin was still there, which was reassuring...... Melanie was a little puzzled, the aura that Merlin exuded was almost not much stronger than that of an ordinary person, how did she do it?

If it weren't for the fear of provoking taboos, she really wanted to ask Merlin how she did it.

Merlin walked behind, looking at a few teammates, but thoughtful. Wizard Vernan, although he seems to be bold, can boast of his luck, but luck must also be based on strength, just looking at the reaction in the previous battle, it is definitely not weak; Reginald, although old, but experienced, has a strong sense of rhythm in battle, if there are several positions, they are stuck in the most advantageous position. OPEC didn't show much in the battle just now, but the presence of this man seems to be very low, which makes people a little elusive.

As for Melanie, she looks like a proud queen of the cold shore, but in fact she may be the simplest one, her strength is a few points stronger than those people, but she is the least experienced one. After all, she is a key trainee of the pharmacy branch, and there is no shortage of various resources.

Plus I pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger...... Overall, this improvised patchwork team still has considerable strength.

Merlin secretly assessed the overall strength of the team, although she hid her strength, she was not prepared to expose it...... Once the bottom is revealed in front of these people, the rest are probably going to kill people. So until the critical time, she will not expose her true strength.

Acting in the underground fire vein space, in fact, it is not only the danger from this space itself that they have to worry about, but also the wizards of other teams are also a threat to them, in case of an underground encounter, a bloody battle, I am afraid that it is difficult to avoid.

While thinking, Mei Lin held a magic stone to replenish the consumed magic power at all times, and followed Melanie and the others unhurriedly. Stay in top shape and be ready to make a move...... In order to speed up, when they were in a hurry, they all blessed themselves with the Wind Technique, so that they could not only speed up, but also keep up with the speed of response in case of sudden danger.

Mei Lin and her team carefully walked in the underground passage all day, and found more than a dozen demonized creatures one after another. The strength is not very strong, but the way it appears and attacks is very weird, although it is all cleaned up, and there is no injury, but ...... Tired!

As they went deeper and deeper, they found that those demonized creatures began to become more numerous, although the strength of the individual was nothing, but the number was increasing, in this dark and narrow space, it was a very annoying and dangerous thing. If nothing else, there must be more such demonized creatures in the empty space of the underground space, and maybe there are even more powerful creatures.

And something even worse happened to them...... Lost.

Before the discovery of this underground fire vein, it was a mining area, and the bottom had already been dug with holes, and the passage was very chaotic. Although there was also a map with the issuance of the mission, it was originally only marked with the location of some major passages, and when it reached the depths, it was already a mess of inaccuracy. And some of the passages are destroyed by demonized creatures, unless they go back.

They thought of various ways to leave a secret imprint on the walls of the passage cave, or to leave a scent on the fork in the passage with a potion, or to leave a symbol in the form of physical marking...... According to common sense, with these kinds of means, it is impossible to get lost.

But the problem is that these marks they left behind, but they don't know who maliciously erased them, and even changed their direction, after discovering these malicious hands and feet, Mei Lin and the others suddenly became alert, and did not dare to be careless.

There is no doubt that those arcane sigils may be able to arouse the alarm of some demonized creatures, but those potions and physical markings, demonized creatures will definitely not pay attention...... There is only one creature that would do this kind of thing boringly and insidiously.

Person.

Although it is a bit troublesome at the moment, fortunately, the group has brought enough food reserves...... The mandate is for a period of six months. But when every wizard prepares, he must leave a surplus, and the temporary loss is not a crisis, but the terrible thing is the threat that does not know where to hide.

"Two corpses, and body temperatures, the time of death is about an hour!" Fernan turned a corner, stopped suddenly, and two corpses appeared in front of him, and there were remnants of energy particles from the battle. He crouched down to examine the bodies, reached out and touched the skin of the two bodies, and whispered the results to the people behind him.

Immediately the crowd gathered around.

Merlin also came to the two corpses and glanced at them.

Judging from the clothing, it should be a child of a small family.

One of the elderly wizards, whose corpse had a bloody hole in his chest, stared at him with a look of shock and disbelief. Judging by the wounds, it should have been killed by a surprise attack, and he didn't have time to use his defenses at all. The other one was dressed similarly to what he was wearing, probably from the same family, and his head was mostly corroded, and his death was extremely miserable.

There must have been a very short encounter here, and the two sides retreated after a fight, leaving behind the two corpses, but the corpses were all looted, and nothing remained.

Merlin watched silently, this is the reality of the wizarding world, maybe she will be like these two people on the ground at any time...... Merlin was relieved, she must not be that kind of person, her destiny must be in her own hands, and to do this, she must keep getting stronger.

"These tunnels are very narrow, and in order to facilitate movement, each team sent into the underground passages usually does not exceed four or five people. There are already three dead people here, and there should be at least three or four of those two teams, and the consumption must be very intense after a fight, and they can't recover in a short time. Let's go pick a peach just in time. ”
