Chapter 687: The Underworld

This family-based Odin orc herdsman has become a thing of the past, and his bones have been reduced to a part of the dirt.

It only took a little bit of a spin for Sean to imagine what it was like.

This Odin orc herdsman is in the deepest sleep.

Beneath their tent was a terrible, devouring jaw of blood, which took only four mouthfuls and swallowed their whole family, along with their four tents.

Only then did they target their herd, and the two huge heads infested at least ten times, devouring no less than ten animals, while the rest of the animals fled into the savannah in the night because of the destruction of the fence.

The legend that circulated among the Orcs of Odin, as mentioned by the chief of the main staff of Ban Hebrew, now seems to be not a simple legend.

Judging from the crime scene left by the Digging Purple Worm, it is definitely a skilled veteran, and it knows that these Odin orcs are the greatest threat.

It's not that these Odin orcs can hurt it, but in the process of eating, there is a possibility that the captive animals will be released.

Only by eating them first can the benefits be maximized.

"It seems that the previous ice attack caused him a really serious injury, but the energy crystallization can only provide him with the energy to survive, but there is no way to provide him with the basic materials to repair the injury, so it must eat normal flesh and blood. Sean made a bold guess about the current behavior of the Digging Purple Worm.

Dragon Soul Clarence nodded and said: "The master's speculation is very correct, this is the common nature of all magical creatures, unless it is an elemental creature, since all flesh and blood creatures cannot completely rely on energy, they need to eat flesh and blood food more or less, especially in the process of growing or repairing injuries, a large amount of blood food is essential." ”

"Knowing its purpose, it's much easier to track it down. Sean said in good spirits, "Keep chasing." ”

Without hesitation, Sean once again drilled into the entrance of the passage where the Digging Purple Worm had left.

Sean said this because it would allow him to do a two-line tracking.

The energy clone determines the direction in which the Digging Purple Worm has left in the ground, and then uses the faster Thunder Golden Eagle to cast a net in this direction, circling back and forth, especially looking for those small Odin orc tribe gathering places, looking for signs that the Digging Purple Worm has broken through the ground and launched an attack.

As long as he could be sure that it was in sight, Sean could ignore all the bewilderment trails that appeared in the road and quickly walk in this direction.

In this way, it will save a lot of time and bring the two sides closer as soon as possible.

After trying it, it really works.

After finding the location where the Digging Purple Worm attacked the Orc herdsmen twice in a row, the distance between the two sides has been very close.

The magic mud left by the Digging Purple Worm in the attack site has not yet fully condensed into stone, and if the Thunder Golden Eagle had arrived one step earlier, he might have been able to witness the Digging Purple Worm hunting for food.

Originally, Sean thought that he would catch up with the Digging Purple Worm before or when it launched its next attack.

Sean is more inclined to launch an attack on the Digging Purple Worm at the latter time, after all, there are many means that cannot be used underground.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the fast change, and after Sean followed up again, he obviously felt that the burrowing purple worm was not like the last two times, only moving three or four meters below the surface, so as to facilitate the detection of prey on the surface, and this time it began to go significantly deeper into the ground.

"What's going on? Could it be that this guy has eaten enough flesh and blood to prepare to go deep underground to recuperate? Even if he is recuperating, he shouldn't be raised here, he should return to the energy pit, that kind of high-concentration energy environment is his favorite. As Shaun walked, he discussed with Clarence the dragon soul about the unusual behavior of the Digging Purple Worm.

In this thousand-mile hunt, Sean found that the biggest advantage of taking the dragon soul Clarence with him was that he had a knowledgeable magic advisor out of thin air, and the other party was not a master, but a grandmaster.

The soul container infused with the power of the law has a very good warming effect on their souls, and is helping the dragon soul to reorganize its soul, using those scattered memories as the foundation, coupled with the stimulation of the outside world, it can recall a lot of magical knowledge.

And the other party's orderly and kind camp is not called in vain, various points of view are inclined in the direction of saints, Sean thinks that he will not be able to become such a person in this life, but it does not prevent him from admiring such a person.

Although Sean has a lot of things that make the dragon soul Clarence criticize, but the five good young people forged under the red flag of new socialism, the various concepts are still relatively thoughtful, and they are definitely not compatible with the chaos and evil of anti-society, and in general, the two are still relatively compatible.

"I don't know, maybe there's something more to his liking underground. Dragon Soul Clarence replied.

"It's either dirt or rocks underground, and what food is there that can be good for it?" Sean wondered.

"The underground here may not be as simple as you think. Dragon Soul Clarence said meaningfully.

"Hey, I've entered the old underground passage again, it seems that this guy is not the first time here, and the most annoying thing is to encounter this situation, the Eye of Tracking. Sean immediately made up a spell for himself, and on the way he just came, he went all the way to the end, and after the spell stopped taking effect, he didn't make up for it.

"I'm going, it's so big, how many times has this guy drilled back and forth here? The entire Odin grassland can't be hollowed out by it, right?" Sean's eyes widened in surprise as he faced the new underground passage.

It can no longer be called an underground passage, but a huge underground cavern, and the light technique cast by the dragon soul Clarence can no longer illuminate the top and sides of this underground passage in a space of more than ten meters.

This is the largest underground passage that Sean has encountered since he tracked down the Digging Purple Worm for a long time.

Like Dragon Soul Clarence said, this guy rarely follows the path of repetition.

For him, as long as there is land, there are roads, and it is enough to reclaim the past.

Since there are signs of repeated reclamation like an energy mine, it means that there must be something underground that attracts it.

What is there in this world that interests this guy?

Sean couldn't help but be filled with curiosity.

The appearance of the underground cave obviously increased the difficulty coefficient of Sean's tracking of the digging purple worm, and he had to carefully search the surrounding area to make sure that there were no repeated traces, and the time to save the province was to run the wrong way.

"Squeak ......"

A piercing scream suddenly echoed through the underground cavern.

A humanoid figure suddenly jumped past Sean's side, and it disappeared in a flash.

"Who is it?" Sean, who was concentrating on finding the Digging Purple Worm, was taken aback, holding the Ancestral Spirit Spear tightly and looking around vigilantly.

In the dark and silent underground passage, anyone who comes like this is a little unbearable.

That's not right.

This place should be hundreds of meters underground, how can there be people?

No, if it's human, how can you not feel their souls?

I am now an energy body, and I don't rely solely on vision to see people, but also on soul perception, which does not need to rely on light.

"Squeak ......"

The piercing screams not only did not disappear, but became one after another, and through the faint light, Sean felt that there were many figures around him, as if he was surrounded by people.

"It's a human being or a ghost, coming out to speak. Sean said in a loud voice, the Ancestral Spirit Spear spell energy surged, and the ice spear would gush out at any time.

"Squeak ......"

Shaun was responded to by screams of varying heights.

"Damn, I'll have to go back and rummage when I have time, if there are any spells related to night vision, just let me see what the hell you are!" Flares!" Sean waved his hand, and a white light shot out, and after flying out for a full twenty meters, it suddenly exploded, and the dazzling white light was shining.

The surrounding space of tens of meters was all illuminated into daylight.

It was enough for Sean to see the surrounding situation clearly, but in this way, there were more questions in his heart.

The underground cave that I thought was empty was full of life, and both the ground and the walls were full of all kinds of mushrooms.

These mushrooms are far larger and weirder than the mushrooms in Sean's cognition.

Some are thick and tall, the size of adults.

Others float silently in the air.

Some have mouth-like organs on their heads, constantly spitting out and screaming.

Some of them pulled out their octopus-like rhizomes from the ground and were crawling towards them, like human figures in poor light, but their crawling speed was very unsatisfactory, giving people a feeling of always dangling.

"The big one is the mushroom tree, the most common species in the dark region, known for its tenacious vitality, as long as there is a little mineral and water, they can thrive, if there is a relatively abundant energy environment, it will be even better, their height will be even more amazing, how high the underground caverns are, they can be as high as they are, and they are the food base of most creatures in the dark region.

The kind that floats in the air, called the poison gas spores, is the companion species of the mushroom tree, when there are creatures that die in the mushroom forest, the seeds of the mushroom tree fall on them, relying on the spores that grow from their flesh and blood, if a creature strays into it, accidentally touch these poison gas spores, it is likely to be killed by their poison gas, and the corpse will not only give birth to new gas spores, but also become nutrients for the mushroom tree.

The one that is screaming, it's called the screaming mushroom, the origin of the name doesn't need me to say more, you should already know that as long as there is a light or creature near them, it will let out a piercing scream, trying to scare off all kinds of predators, but its taste should be the best of all the mushrooms, you can taste it if you have the chance.

The ones that are preparing to escape, called purple mushrooms, are living plants, like gas spores, these guys are also carnivores, and can only grow new ones in the bodies of various creatures, and they usually only grow in large mushroom tree forests, where there are enough creatures for them to live. ”

A middle-aged female voice commented in Sean's ear, which made him can't help but think of David Attenborough in his previous life.

The on-site narrator is none other than Clarence, the dragon soul.

"You know all about it?" Sean grimaced.

"On the way here, there has been a little speculation, but I am not sure. "Dragon Soul Clarence's orderly and kind nature does make him unable to lie, but that doesn't mean he can't hide something.

"If you guessed it, why didn't you tell me earlier. Sean asked angrily.

"If I had told you in advance, wouldn't I have lost the fun of exploring the dark region?" Dragon Soul Clarence said in a heartfelt voice, "Besides, we should be in the most marginal region now, the possibility of encountering a terrifying predator is very small, poison gas spores and purple mushrooms are a big threat to ordinary people, but for us energy bodies, it is not a problem at all." ”

As he spoke, the dragon soul Clarence had already vibrated his short wings and flew forward, grabbing a gas spores.

At the slightest touch, the gas spore burst, and a greenish-gray gas enveloped it.

But when it comes to the pure gold body manipulated by the dragon soul Clarence, it is not easy to use at all.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, but I don't need any adventure, I prefer to be on the safe side, and if there is anything I don't know yet, let me know. With a slight swing of the Ancestral Spirit Spear, Sean swept the purple mushrooms that ran over with great effort and tried to reach for his own octopus claw rhizomes, and all of them swept to the ground.

The surging cold turned them into lumps of ice on the spot, and the dead could no longer die.

Then he manipulated the ice arrows and shot them out according to the sound, nailing the screaming mushrooms one by one, and he didn't have the desire to taste these weird mushrooms for the time being.

Forehead!

Energy clones also don't have this feature.

"My speculation is only based on known conditions, and the accuracy is not guaranteed. Dragon Soul Clarence stated in advance.

"You just have to say your speculation, and I'll judge for myself the rest. Sean said impatiently, this guy is good at everything, but he is a little verbose and too obedient a lot of times, so he naturally lacks flexibility.

"Previously, I speculated that the Digging Purple Worm went underground, thinking about finding ore veins and eating ore to repair its damaged carapace, but now it seems that this speculation has been deviated, he came here, it is more likely that there is a second energy pit here, the one with more consistent attributes, once connected to the dark region, in this way, it can be explained why there are digging purple worms here and many species belonging to the dark region. Clarence the dragon soul spoke his speculation.

"Another energy pit?" Sean rubbed his forehead and scolded, "How did I find out lately that this world is like a sieve, full of holes?"

"The end of the law era has not completely wiped out the existence of me, and the existence of a natural warlock like the master has fully demonstrated that the plane laws of this world themselves are not sound, and it is even possible that many years ago, they have been targeted by one or more worlds, and may even be locked by the space anchor, leaving behind the nodes that they tried to break through before are very normal, the master must pay close attention to these nodes, they have become the weakest place in this world, and when other planes attack, it is very likely that they will continue to break through from these nodes。 Dragon Soul Clarence said with a serious face, "This is the unshirkable responsibility of a son of a plane like the master, and the fact that you can find these nodes is the best proof that this is not accidental, but an inevitability." ”
