Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss stood still, and they didn't want to irritate the natives, but they were both trying to figure out how to get out of their current predicament.

At the moment, this scene is quite a bit difficult to retreat.

Catherine thought to herself that if they were forced to evacuate, the natives might not stop them. It's just that the purpose of the two of them entering this forest at the beginning was not achieved, and it was absolutely thankless to continue to travel back to the snowfield outside.

She glanced at the Ice Bear Abyss, and the old barbarian half-frowned, probably having a similar thought.

Fortunately, the two didn't think long before an indigenous creature came out. He appeared to be taller than the other natives, with a stronger body and more tentacles on his head. As he walked out, the native creatures fell silent. This guy is probably a leader.

The native leader had seven tentacles on his head, three of which had eyes, two mouths with sharp teeth, and two of which had strange organs, and Catherine was not sure for a moment whether it was a nose or a pierced ear.

This guy is obviously intellectual. He said something as he motioned for Catherine and Catherine to follow him. The natives behind him made way for a path into the depths of the forest.

Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss glanced at each other, and Catherine nodded lightly and walked ahead.

The indigenous leader led the two men through the forest. Along the way, the trees become sparse.

Soon Catherine saw buildings, many of them built on trees, some on the ground, the size of the natives, simple wooden structures, scattered like boxes.

The indigenous chiefs had no intention of stopping and continued through the settlement. After walking about three or five hundred meters, a vacant field was exposed in front of it, which was hundreds of square meters in size, and the ground was very smooth. There was a large hole in the center of the clearing, at least five or six meters in diameter, and the cave was guarded by many indigenous creatures. Look at the posture of these guards, they are trained and hold spear-like weapons in their hands.

Walking to the large cave, Catherine saw stairs leading down, as well as a number of building platforms.

At this moment, a group of indigenous creatures came out of the forest, and four or five of them carried a plank, and walked to the edge of the big cave and walked down the wooden ladder.

Catherine could faintly hear the knocking sound coming from the large hole, and there was probably a construction site working below.

The native leader waited for the caravan to go down, beckoned to Catherine and the others, and walked down the wooden ladder.

Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss hesitated. Entering a cave is not the same as staying on the ground, although the forest is also an unfamiliar environment, but it is better to have a wider field of vision, and there is a real danger that can be detected and dealt with in time. It's hard to talk about the bottom of this big cave, and they don't know anything about the indigenous creatures, so who knows what the other side has in mind.

While the two were still hesitating, the indigenous leader walked back to the surface from the hole. He stared at the two Catherines, several tentacles swinging thoughtfully.

After a while, the indigenous leader shouted to one of the guards next to him. The guard walked up to Catherine and handed her spear to her.

Catherine glanced at the native leader, who pointed to the spear and said a few words. The mage stooped to take the spear. It was a very thin stick, finger-thick, longer than Catherine's arm, but not light, and felt heavy in the hand.

As soon as Catherine took the spear, she noticed that it was extraordinary, and she couldn't help but take it in front of her eyes to take a closer look. The spearhead of the spear is a triangular sharp horn, and the sharp horn is actually engraved with alchemy lines. The entire spear body is made from a single piece and is very smooth.

Catherine watched for a moment and passed the spear to the Ice Bear Abyss. The old barbarian stood aside and could already see that this spear was extraordinary. He took it in his hand and weighed it, and with both hands he grasped the spear and pulled it hard, the spear slightly deformed but not bent.

"Blunt steel. Catherine said, "This spearhead probably has special attributes, you can try it." ”

The Ice Bear Abyss nodded, turned its head to look, and raised its hand to throw it towards a place where no one was around. With a "whoosh" of the spear, it pierced into a large tree, but it did not stop, pierced through the trunk and continued forward, and then pierced through the second and third trees, and flew away. This is of course the power of the Ice Bear Abyss, but it is obviously also related to the alchemy pattern on the spearhead.

"It looks like it's sharpened or pierced. Catherine had some knowledge of the alchemy pattern and immediately guessed the attribute added to the spearhead.

"It's outside technology, it shouldn't be done by them. The Ice Bear Abyss pointed his chin at the indigenous leader.

When the native leader saw the Ice Bear Abyss pointing his chin at him, he immediately began to mutter. Even said with a comparison, but Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss didn't understand. However, the native's chief was wiser than the other natives, and when the comparison was fruitless for a long time, he ran aside and snatched the spear from one of the guards. He held his spear and pointed into the hole.

"He means the spearman is in the cave?" Catherine asked the Ice Bear Abyss.

"I think that's what it means. Ice Bear Abyss touched his chin and said, "This is to take us to the man." ”

"Then go check it out. Catherine thought for a moment and said, "Always take some risks." ”

The two men agreed and motioned for the indigenous leader to lead the way.

The big hole was deeper than expected, and after walking down for a long time, there was no bottom, and the hole on the head had become only the size of a palm.

Originally, Catherine was worried that there would be no light after going down, and planned to use the fireball technique to create a light source herself. I didn't expect the tentacles of these indigenous creatures to have the function of emitting light. When she walked down the abyss with the ice bear, she realized that there would be two indigenous creatures standing guard by each wooden ladder, shining a bright light with a tentacle on their heads.

After another walk, the hole in her head had become the size of a silver coin, and Catherine finally stepped on the ground.

At the same time, there was a light in front of him, not the kind emitted by the indigenous creatures, but the soft silver light inspired by the alchemy patterns.

The indigenous leader continued to lead the way, heading towards the silver light. Before she could get closer, Catherine was amazed to see cartloads of ore moving in front of her.

The ore is packed in a kind of cart with small wheels, and under the cart are two long metal rods laid on the ground. The long metal rod is continuous, as if reaching infinity. Several indigenous creatures push or pull, transporting box-like carts on long metal poles, round by wheel alchemy lines shining on the wheels and metal poles.

Needless to say, these small wheels and long metal poles must also have alchemy patterns engraved on them.

The indigenous leader muttered to the two men, motioning for them to get into a box. The box-shaped car was actually specially modified, with horizontal plates on both sides of the car, so that you could sit down.

Unfortunately, the box-shaped car was too small, and Catherine could barely stand on it, let alone the tall Ice Bear Abyss.
