Chapter 254: Medium

The long tunnel is guarded by patrols every few meters. The Akashi lanterns behind them lit up the entire tunnel. At the exit of the tunnel, as at the entrance, there is a line of patrolmen standing to prevent outsiders from breaking through.

In fact, the last time Ai Wei came here, even if he wanted to get the sign, and several team members who had crossed the entrance intercepted him, he ran to the cave and didn't have a chance at all. Of course, Leah also understands that the deployment of so many patrols here is not only to prevent students from breaking in, but also to prevent the monsters from escaping.

Seeing someone coming, several patrolmen at the exit looked back, and then stood on both sides, and the leader said, "Please come in, pay attention to safety." The patrol members lined up in front of them still understood that these people were the adventurers mentioned by the patrol leader, and they also knew that the people in front of them were going into the forest to look for plants.

"Thank you. Mentor Elinda nodded slightly in thanks.

The lively scene inside the ore field at the beginning is now deserted, and Mentor Elinda still sighs deeply. However, these patrol members are still loyal to this place from beginning to end, without any slack and indiscretion, which shows that they are all people with a strong sense of responsibility.

Walk out of the tunnel at the entrance to the ore yard. It's not a small, narrow aisle. It's a jungle that suddenly opens up.

Although I heard from the patrol leader, the actual situation inside still surprised Mentor Ilinda. This is not the kind of man-made mining cave with a length of three meters, width and height, but a real closed jungle!

Moreover, according to the patrol leader, this was once the source of rare ores and materials such as spirit crystals!

Mentor Elinda took two steps forward and looked around. To her surprise, there didn't seem to be a trace of a large-scale excavation of the place in front of her! it didn't look like a location where the material was produced.

Generally speaking, the main areas where the material is produced are usually dug up very thoroughly by the learners. It's not so smooth, with lush vegetation and trees. She crouched down and took a closer look around. Later, she discovered that although the plants around it were ferocious, their true growth age was not very long, usually only about four or five years.

It seems that the excavation in the past was quite thorough...... Of course, looking at these plants, it should be that no learners have entered in recent years, and they have excavated the soil and collected materials on a large scale, so let these plants come back again.

Mentor Elinda looked at the president next to her, knowing that time was not for her to waste. She then took out the detector that the patrol leader had just handed her, and said to the leader, "President, can you find out where the spirit veins inside the ore field are?"

The location of the spiritual veins was unknown to Mentor Elinda, and her collection technique did not mainly rely on spiritual veins. Besides, the attribute of the spiritual vein is gold, and she can't use her own ability to find it.

In the face of Mentor Eliinda's inquiry, the leader squinted slightly, stared around, and said, "In the map given to me by the patrol leader, the location of the spiritual vein has been marked, and about five hundred meters in front of us, we can find this spiritual vein inside the ore field. ”

The spirit veins are marked with dotted lines on the map. Although it is not completely painted, as long as the president finds some of them, he can find the direction of all the spiritual veins!

The 500-meter journey is quite fast, and this part is also the patrol area's surveillance area. The President and Mentor Elinda did not encounter any magical beasts. The moment she arrived, the crystal detector carried by Mentor Elinda reacted.

The upper part of this gray-white crystal lit up with a faint golden light. It seems to indicate that they have stepped on the right track of gray matsutake mushrooms.

However, Mentor Elinda has not yet come to this environment to observe and say anything instructive. At this moment, the president stood in front of the two of them in vain, staring solemnly at the empty front of him.

The president wants to lead the team alone? Because his nerves were tense, he put one hand on the hilt of the sword on his back. The pitch-black sword was also held in his hands, glowing with a faint golden light. Obviously, this is not what the president wants to do, but he is preparing to attack!

For now. Isn't the president too surprised, they have just stepped into the spiritual vein. It was not even five hundred meters from the entrance, and this was still a place where the patrolmen could see! Why did they stand in front of them so vigilantly, solemnly?

Seeing the president like this, Mentor Elinda seemed to understand something. He also chanted softly in his mouth, and his hands gradually rose with a faint fiery red light. The president didn't say anything at the moment, but he stood in front of them, protecting them, apparently seeing something threatening.

After a short standoff.

"Whew!" a large dark green shadow passed in front of their eyes. Shooting into the grass on the side, there was a terrible sound of the thick weeds, and it regained its calm.

Only then did the president relax his right hand gripping the sword and walk back to the left side of the line.

Mentor Elinda exhaled suddenly. If the president hadn't been vigilant and aware of the danger, she might have stepped into this dangerous area.

Seeing the girl's expression a little surprised, Mentor Elinda couldn't help but soothe her head. Seeing that the president didn't have any expression, Mentor Elinda casually explained: "This is the Green Gold Snake, and its camouflage ability is very strong. It's as if we've just been in the middle of the jungle and barely notice it. Moreover, this dark green demonic beast has a strong poison, if it is bitten by it, but does not take the medicine or herbs in time, it will die soon!"

Leah swallowed. This snake is really powerful. The speed at which it escaped just now was so fast, if it had approached it at close range, wouldn't it have been hit by its trick in the blink of an eye? But then again, the size of this monster snake is also quite large, and after such a bite, it seems that there is no need to release the poison, and it can swallow her directly.

Leah shuddered. Sure enough, it is easy to push down because of the weakness of the body, when do you have to find a time to practice your physique.

"In the Beast Forest, we will proceed cautiously, not in a hurry. So, it will take longer than you think, Leah, try to relax and don't be so nervous. Take a look at the surrounding scenery and there will always be something interesting to discover. Mentor Elinda said to Leah on the side.

For a person who only runs towards the goal, he will not sit idle and wait for the route to move slowly. Although Mentor Elinda is also very eager to find the gray matsutake mushroom, the beast forest is not an easy place. Every step of the way is done with as little impact as possible.

After all, they were just here to look for plants, not to wipe out all the demonic beasts here, and the two of them alone couldn't do this. Therefore, in a state where the enemy is outnumbered, it is possible to avoid fighting, so as not to implicate the whole situation.

It's like that green gold snake just now. It is extremely fast, but it decays quickly after the explosion. After a long standoff, it will leave the place on its own initiative. That's why the president made such a move.

He also understands that although his own strength is very strong, he must take care of his teammates and not let them be attacked unnecessarily. He can handle it well on his own, but they may not be able to, or even be able to.

……

The first day of the search was obviously boring. Among them, although some strange magical beasts were seen again, they were quickly driven away by the president in other ways, and there was not much contact at all. Also, the president does not allow any member to leave the team on the way.

For example, during the process, Leah saw some strange wood on the side and wanted to collect some samples to prepare for research, but before she could take two steps, she was caught by Uncle Elder and pulled her back into the team with a sharp face.

Then, she said that she just wanted to see the wood on the side, but the uncle reprimanded her in a stern tone, telling her: If you leave the team, you are ready to go back by yourself!

With such a threat, he didn't want her to leave the team too far at all. and issued a stern warning tone.

Leah didn't know how far the distance had come, and she still had a bit of a sense of length in the short distance. However, the forest is densely wooded, and the road is not easy to walk, there are always some dead logs, or a large hollow to block the road ahead, and it becomes a little unreliable to infer the distance traveled by time.

At the same time, as the number of actions increased, Uncle Chang and Mentor Elinda looked at the map more and more, and seemed to be constantly confirming whether there was a problem with the current location, where the location of the gray matsutake was, and how far away they were.

In the afternoon, it was not yet evening. The president began to look for a shelter with Mentor Eliinda to begin the sleepover. Their tent was set up on top of a tall tree, and the Elder was sprinkled with a lot of potions and powders, which seemed to be used to expel the beasts.

After Mentor Elinda placed Leah on the tree, she went around to gather food.

Although they also have some dry food on their bodies, they put it close to their bodies, but those have a long shelf life and a very tight texture, and those are things that will only be used in an emergency.

Of course, Leah's evaluation of this emergency food is that maybe it is to avoid being eaten as a snack, and its taste is very unfriendly! Not only can hard teeth be bitten off, but it is also dry in the mouth, and not only that, but this thing actually chews more and more!

It didn't take long, and Mentor Elinda brought a lot of fruit to satisfy the hunger of the two of them. The president went to the tree with the two of them to rest and prepare for the next day's trip.

Prepare early to make better use of the vision. At night, although they are all able to fight, some monsters prefer to be nocturnal in their habits. They are the kings of the night! Even though the practitioner is in the dark, he also has a certain ability to see. However, those monsters can roam freely in a completely dark environment!

Plus they had an attendant by their side, and it would have been terrible if they hadn't lost it in the night. They may be able to move around at night, or they can escape and fight! Therefore, the chairman and the others rested early and waited for the next day.
