46. Underground labyrinth
readx;? After camping and waiting for a day, the next morning, Durroux walked around with a few people, and when he returned, Dylan and Donasius woke up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Dulu, what a surprise, won't you get up before dawn? Huh? And find so many ingredients?"
"I'm not used to sleeping in a tent, I can't help it, since I see you, come here, help me prepare for the heat. ”
"I'm not as laid-back as you are, and I still have the heart to do such a thing. Dylan waved his hand, and the next sentence had nothing to do with the previous sentence, "Duru, lend me some money." ”
"Again, let's talk about interest now, otherwise it's going to be very difficult." ”
"Forget it, when I didn't say it. ”
"By the way, Dylan, I almost forgot to tell you that from last night to this morning, the protective magic enchantment around is very complete. ”
Dylan stopped and nodded at Duru.
An hour later, Donnahew asked everyone to gather and counted the number of people.
"Thirty of you are to stay and guard the camp, and stand aside. As for the others, just stand in the same line, and I'll give you five minutes, hurry up!"
The thirty knights who remained in the camp were seriously injured in the battle with the dragon yesterday, and even high-level healing magic could not heal their injuries in a day, and they would have to recuperate for a week at the earliest.
"Now it's my turn. Dylan walked over, stood next to Donnas, and touched his neck, "Ahem, everyone, listen! The road to the underground has been cleared! You have to know a little, the underground road is not easy to walk! At most, two people are side by side, don't panic when you encounter anything, or do you understand what you did before?!! answer me loudly!!"
"Understand !!!!!"
Everyone shouted in unison, especially grandiose.
"Departure !!!!!"
As when they came, the Dragon Slayer Knight and his party, together with Samuel and his party, and one more person who had nothing to do with the incident, went underground together. Dylan inquired about the way down, and Yoel said that he didn't know anything about the underground, and even if he came here, he couldn't remember anything.
"Did you have a dream? That guy used a memory-restoring dream spell on you, and you still can't remember anything?"
Yo'er hesitated and said, "I feel like I've had a dream, and I forgot about it when I woke up." ”
"Then it can't be helped. Dylan shrugged, "Maybe a few more times? It would be bothersome if you can't remember anything, I can understand your feelings, I've had a similar experience, if I can remember." ”
“”
What does this guy mean by that, he doesn't behave the same as he did yesterday, does he have any ideas?
Joel turned his head and noticed a few eyes on him, and he was really being stared at everywhere here. She began to think about how to get out of this situation, looking for an opportunity to solve all these people, and the secrets of the Boundless Forest could not be revealed. However, the only trouble is that these people are from the Sifang Temple, and for now, it would be very troublesome to leave the Boundless Forest and rush to the various temples to solve all the knights, chief priests, and chief priests who knew the secret.
“?!”
Dylan suddenly stopped and glanced at the person behind him.
"Why did you stop?"
"It's nothing, it's an illusion. ”
Dylan glanced around and didn't notice.
What was the strange aura that I felt just now? Dylan didn't know how to describe it, murderous aura? No, not quite like it, anyway, I felt very uncomfortable just now, the aura of the shadow mage? absolutely impossible, because Ami would definitely be the first to come out and warn everyone.
He waited for many days, and she didn't come back.
That day disappeared from the room without saying goodbye, at first, he didn't worry too much, three days passed, five days passed, and then now, he vaguely understood what was happening. However, to my surprise, such a silent farewell produced a trace of loneliness in my heart.
“”
Let's go, he said to himself. When he was about to walk out of the room, his pace became slow, he put his hand on the door, hesitated for a long time, and finally did not look back, and continued to take steps and walk forward.
That heart-wrenching feeling, he will never forget, this trace of loneliness is nothing.
He subconsciously chuckled, hoping to have a companion, it was ridiculous.
"Hermina"
"At the earliest, you'll have to wait for me for a year. ”
At this moment, he was finally able to give up all these superfluous worries one by one, and the abandonment was extremely clean, and there was no longer any worthless nostalgia, even if it was unscrupulous, he had to complete this final revenge plan.
"How's it going? After more than a month of recuperation, they whispered in my ear all day long, saying that you took advantage of the opportunity to be lazy, and my ears were about to become moldy. Christie stepped into the room and took a look, the quarters of the Knights were all single rooms, and this guy's room was too monotonous!
“”
"I know you're awake, and it's the greatest honor for me to take the time to visit you personally. Her Majesty clapped her hands and looked back, "Come in." ”
One by one, the servants brought in a lot of things, such as screens and carpets, and other ornate decorations that changed the style of the whole room in an instant, as well as armor and swords, and finally three chests of gold coins.
"This is your reward, and I will tell you one more thing, congratulations on your promotion, you are no longer the lowest-ranking midshipman in the Knights, that suit of armor and swords is made for you, rejoice!"
Luke sat on the bed and watched as the whole picture of his room was changed all at once, his expression still unchanged, still indifferent.
"Dreams. ”
"I had a dream, a dream of my hometown. ”
"yes, do you miss it?"
"I almost died. ”
He said it understated.
"I almost forgot, this is your badge as an official knight, handed over to you. Christie personally handed a dragon-shaped badge into Luke's hands, "From this day forward, you are a good knight." ”
With that, she turned around, walked in the direction of the door without looking back, and dropped a sentence, "I'm very optimistic about you, Luke." ”
Luke watched her leave, recalling a dream in which he stood alone in the impoverished village surrounded by mountain peaks, looking out at the sky in the distance.
After entering the underground, the light is much darker, and there are people holding lanterns a few meters away, and the light of the lanterns illuminates the surroundings in a small area, and you can vaguely pay careful attention to the road under your feet. In this way, along the stairs below, the team slowly moved forward, and among them, Dylan and the people next to him began to chat.
"It was really hard last night, and I had to help retrieving the stone monsters, and if I could, I really wanted to sleep until noon today. The chief knight yawned, and when he set out, he couldn't see anything, and when he went underground, he couldn't help but feel sleepy because of the thin air.
"Don't talk nonsense, there's a broken door in front of you!"
Neil gave him an angry look and pointed to a door with a hole in front of him.
Dylan looked at it and pushed it, and the door fell, probably because of the stones.
"Let's go!"
The people behind followed Dylan one after another and walked in.
The situation inside was darker than the road below, Dylan put away the lantern, took out a glowing magic stone, and threw it forward, the magic light stone used to illuminate it rolled a few times, rolled to the left, and rolled under a wall. Dylan surveyed the ground and saw a footprint, shaped and oriented, like a footprint left by someone coming out of it.
At the other end of the footprint, there is a door on the left, and another door on the right. Dylan walked over and stood between the two doors, thinking about something.
"There are two doors in front of here, how do you get there?"
As soon as he finished asking, Neil heard a cough.
"There's a lot of dust in here, ahem!"
"Xia Li, are you alright?"
Neil patted Charlie on the back, and only after she looked better did he feel a little more at ease.
"I'm sorry, Neil, I think I might need to rest for a while, the air is so stuffy here, my head is dizzy. ”
"Let Ami see, let Ami see!"
Ami approached Xia Li, and the gentle white light sprinkled on Xia Li, and suddenly, Xia Li felt much better.
"Thanks, it's okay now, I don't want to be a burden, I think I'd better go back to it. ”
"Charlie is right. Dylan walked over and touched Charlie's head, "You're still so sensible, Aesop, come here, take her back to the ground, and take care of the others by the way." ”
"Yes!"
Knight Aesop and Neil have always had a good relationship, and they are candidates for the next Knight Captain like another knight, Joel, but Joel did not participate in this operation. For the short knight, who was better at paperwork, Dylan left Joel in the temple.
At this time, Joel is likely to complain that his time has been taken up by all his work, and he has lost even the precious time to hone his swordsmanship, and may become the weakest candidate for knight captain in the history of the White Tiger Temple.
In one of the corridors in the inner area of the White Tiger Temple, a priest was caught by a knight.
"Wright, please, help me!! or I'll have to stay up late again tonight, I've stayed up all night in a row, I can't hold it anymore!! everyone will hide as soon as they see me, and they won't help anything!!"
Priest Wright saw Joel holding a huge wooden box half the width of the corridor, and the wooden box was so full of documents that it was about to fall out, and subconsciously refused with a smile.
"I'm the same, I can't help you, Lord Dennis ordered me to report the price of the stone monster to him as soon as possible, this is already a good time to spend the money in advance. Lord Dennis is in a bad mood, I'll be scolded if I talk to you any longer, goodbye! Good luck Joel!"
Wright couldn't wait to say this, and slipped away with a pile of materials in his arms.
What the priest didn't tell the knight was that in fact, Lord Dennis was not in a bad mood at all, on the contrary, he was very happy, which was not surprising, after all, the previous high priest had come to the temple a few days earlier.
Dylan spoke to the two people in the middle and back of the group about what he had noticed, and spoke his thoughts to the magic weapon.
"Just do what you want. ”
"I, like Durrou, have no opinion. ”
"That's good. ”
Dylan turned off the magic weapon, and Lance asked, asking him what his arrangements were.
"From now on, we're going to be apart. Dylan looked at the people around him, "Listen to my orders, you knights will be in a small team of ten people, bring the magic weapons I have assigned to you, I have a magic map on me, and I can see where you go at any time." If there's something wrong, contact me as soon as possible, and don't contact Donasius or Duru, if there's something strange, !!you have to report it!
Then, Dylan looked at the others.
"As for the few of you, it's not going to be easy. ”
Even Dylan finds it troublesome, and that's really troublesome.
Suddenly, Dylan clapped his hands violently, "Since it's not easy to score, you can form a team by yourself, the Dragon Slayer Knight plus Lorog's people, and you, a total of seven people." ”
"That's not right, Dylan! And Ami and Are, that's nine! Hey, it's a pity, Xia Li is back on it, plus Xia Li's words are a qualified team of ten people! Ami thinks it's a pity!"
"I'm not going to fight with you, nine is nine. ”
Dylan shrugged his shoulders and looked at the people who were named, "You will be the leading team, I will give you a task to explore this area as soon as possible, from the information you have obtained, it is not an exaggeration to say that this is a huge underground labyrinth." You have to explore this underground labyrinth faster and more thoroughly than all the teams behind you, and I will give the magic weapon to Neil, and I will see the route you take on the magic map, and I will also give a reminder to those who come behind. Your mission is to explore, and if you do encounter a shadow mage, don't fall in love with it, just let Ami give him a hard blow. ”
"Wrap it up on Ami!"
Samuel glanced at the noisy Sword of Light, in a sense, this should be the safest team, and the most vulnerable team.
When you enter the door on the left, you will be completely separated from the people behind you. They came to a corridor with a number of rooms, led by Ami, and told everyone that there was no strange element of shadow magic in this place. The seven of them separated for the time being, a few people checked the room on the left, and the others checked the room on the right, and began to search separately.
"There are no enemies around here, so are they all really gone?"
Ami hovered back and forth in mid-air, circle after circle, if there really were shadow mages here, even the shadow magic traps and traps would not be able to escape Ami's vision.
"It's really weird, even if all the shadow mages leave, they won't destroy all the magic traps so completely, this is the rumored obsessive-compulsive disorder? ”
Five minutes later, the room in this hallway had been searched almost once, completely.
"Ami, we didn't find anything. ”
"We're back, these rooms are nothing special, the first one on the right hand side has some rusty weapon racks and torture tools and the like, the second one seems to be a cultivation room, the plants in it are all withered, and the last three are not interesting, so I won't talk about it. ”
Neil and Lance return and tell Ami this, and it just so happens that Samuel and the others also come out.
"It's different from the last time I was here, the air here is mixed with the smell of blood, and this time I came in and the smell was gone, which made me feel incredible. Samuel said, "The second and fifth rooms on the left have two doors in them, four in all, how are we going to get there this time?"
"Let's focus on the places you didn't go to last time! If you have enough time, check the rooms you've been to again, and there's a good chance that something will slip through the cracks! Ami thinks so, what do you think, Neil?"
"Don't throw me this kind of question that needs to be thought about!"
"I have a suggestion, which is not strictly a suggestion, that we must leave a mark in every room we go to, in order from first to top and from left to right, and strive to thoroughly explore each room. You've all said before that it's like a giant labyrinth. As for what marks to make, leave them to Ami, the marks left by Ami shouldn't be so easy to erase, right?"
"Actually, I think it's the fastest way for us to spread out and explore!"
Hima said suddenly, and Lance nodded, "Indeed, I don't think we should be separated, like we can ignore if it was only for a few minutes." If there were shadow mages hiding inside, it wouldn't be nice for Ami and any of us to be separated. ”
"I don't want to listen to you guys discussing how to go, it's a waste of time, vote, the majority obeys the minority!"
Samuel expressed impatience.
"This boy is right, let's vote!
In the end, with a four-to-two vote, Excalibur's votes were not counted, and so was Joel, and the majority chose to support Lance. The only one who agrees with Himma's opinion is Vivian, and Hima is defeated.
"Forget meow, this princess doesn't care about meow!"
Hima glanced at Yo'er, who was standing at the back of her, who had been in the tent yesterday.
"I know what kind of meow you are, why don't you meow like this, let's make a deal meow! You have to do two things, the first is to help us deal with the shadow mages, and the second is not to hurt or kill everyone here. Opposite Meow, I will also help you do two things, Meow, do my best to help you leave the boundless forest, under the noses of this group of people. And this princess won't say a word about you, I'll keep it a secret!
They made this deal, and Jima had to do what the deal was about, looking for an opportunity to help her get out of here.
Before going to bed last night, Hima, Ruthma, Vivian, Charlie, and Yoel stayed in the same tent. The cat-clan didn't sleep at night, slipping out of the tent in the middle of the night, and Himala witnessed that the high priest's tent was still lit at this time.
It wasn't long before Lance and Neil came out of it and returned to their tent.
To do bad things at night is to be sneaky meow, so does Himma.
