Chapter 616: Dimensional Gate
Setbacks are often the best cradle for growth.
At least Melanie is now a good learner, even if her authority is challenged, she has no negative anger this time, and just follows in silence...... She knew very well that others could be easy for her to lose her temper for a while, but it was impossible to be obedient to everything, and they were forced to rush into it, and it was difficult to say what danger they would encounter when they left themselves in this underground passage.
She is proud, but not stupid.
The five of them continued along the passage.
Although the underground passages here are criss-crossed, the general trend is to dig down, digging deeper and deeper. It's like a labyrinth, but if you want to get out, you can still walk to the target area by walking towards the lower ground.
Along the way, they can occasionally encounter wizard squads from other forces, and even encounter several squads at once. But there are not many who really fight. The strength of the monks in each squad is similar, and they all have scruples, once they fight and their own squad brings casualties and attrition, they will fall into an extremely disadvantageous disadvantage, and other forces may take advantage of the opportunity to attack.
Almost all wizard squads want other squads to fight with each other so that they can pick up the bargain. Therefore, the more teams you encounter, the more scruples you have, and the more difficult it is to fight.
Unless a single faction gathers multiple squads at the same time...... For example, the Perros family, who have an absolute advantage in numbers, surround a weak squad and will carry out surprise attacks. With minimal casualties, the opponent will be surrounded and annihilated. Of course, there can be no witnesses to such a thing, and in the current situation, God knows if there are a few pairs of eyes in the darkness watching their movements.
Mei Lin's team encountered other teams that were also from the Ash Academy, and several teams from the Ash Academy gradually converged together, keeping a close distance, and their security was greatly increased. At the same time, they also got the exact news of the academy, and the teams of various forces have begun to enter the cave in batches. Each team only needs to stay in the underground fire vein space for three months, and regardless of whether they have achieved results or not, they can return to the surface to rest.
In fact, this news does not mean much to the wizards, their purpose is to get as many achievements as possible, and when they go back, they will get rewards, and no one will waste precious rest time to rest on the ground. Unless there is a serious loss or a serious shortage of supply.
Especially the first batch of wizards who entered the underground fire vein space to explore, they had already reached the depths of the underground, but they didn't get enough battles, how could they be willing to go back?
When Melanie woke up, they both performed the Wind Surge in order to speed up their progress, so they suddenly traveled faster, and four hours later, they came to another underground cavern. Compared to the previous cave, this cave is larger and more like a building than a cave.
In this cave, there were eighty or ninety wizards gathered, judging from their costumes, most of them were wizards who belonged to the affiliated forces of the academy, and some of them belonged to the academy of ashes, but Merlin didn't know them, and even Melanie rarely talked to them.
The people who entered here were very cautious, they each occupied a corner of the grotto, whispered something, or closed their eyes to meditate, neither clashing with the wizards of other forces, nor willing to leave the grotto, the atmosphere was a little strange.
In the middle of the grotto, there is a small stone platform, engraved with complex runes, but it is a dimensional gate alchemy array, but it has not yet been activated.
Mei Lin glanced at everyone in the grotto indifferently, and then set her eyes on this dimensional gate alchemy array. However, this is a small dimensional door, which is activated after pressing the magic stone, and can only be entered one at a time.
It's just that at this time, everyone in the grotto is eyeing each other, and no one dares to take the lead in using this dimensional gate.
This dimensional gate is to teleport into the next layer of underground space, but if they want to use this dimensional gate in the boldest, none of them will ...... No one knows what the next layer of underground space will be, and if it is crowded with demonized creatures, it will kill them directly.
Others didn't move, Mei Lin and the others naturally didn't move, everyone was waiting for others to act first...... In fact, Merlin wanted to move, but she was also worried that her movements would be too abrupt and eye-catching, so she didn't move.
Half a day later, another team of wizards entered the grotto.
Seeing the situation in front of them, they were also startled, but seeing that everyone seemed to be facing each other, and looked at the alchemy circle, they also understood a little, and one of the wizards in their fifties smiled: "Actually, there is no need for everyone to be so nervous. This dimensional teleportation array has a protection mechanism. After activation, if the receiving location is intact, a shield will automatically form after the dimensional gate is activated, and other lifeforms will be repelled by the shield. Those who enter the dimensional gate will also defend in time. ”
As he spoke, he paused and continued, "If you have no opinions, we can find a way for you first. ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward and placed a magic stone in each of the six corners of the alchemy array, and the runes on the stone platform immediately lit up, and one after another light-shaped runes flew out of the array, quickly forming a dimensional door.
"Hehe, everyone, I'm sorry, let's go first and explore the way for you. The wizard unceremoniously stood on the stone platform and led his team through the dimensional gate.
There are advantages and disadvantages to being advanced, and it is impossible for them to stop each other in public...... After all, people are the first to try.
"Wait a minute. ”
A resolute cold voice suddenly came from the stone room. A wizard in his thirties stared at the wizard and said with a sneer, "You are stupid to us, aren't you? This is a one-dimensional door, and you can only pass through one person at a time. After the five of you have passed, as long as you surround the receiving place, fight five against one, and directly kill the latecomers, who of us will dare to go over? You can only go over one, and then the other sect disciples will follow in. ”
The old wizard was suspected of ulterior motives for no reason, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he immediately jumped up and said angrily: "Let's go in first, this is a risk, what if we encounter demonized creatures over there after passing over? ”
"Whether you will encounter demon beasts or not, I don't care. A force can only pass one at a time, and it will take their turn to enter, otherwise no one will want to go over!" said the wizard indifferently, with the intention of fighting if he disagreed.
At this moment, there were many wizards from other forces in the stone room, and they all spoke out, expressing their support and agreement with the young wizard's statement.
There is no fool who can stand in this stone room now, and he does not understand the mystery of this.
