Chapter 0088: Shadow Pupil
readx; While it's impossible to verify that Kirby's wizarding treasure really exists, it's definitely worth the risk. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After all, something that a second-order wizard can't look at, for Grim, who is struggling to be promoted to a wizard, may be a priceless treasure that is hard to find. Therefore, after initially determining the location of the ruins of Elysium, Grim began to plan how to talk about the virtual reality.
Judging by the location shown on the map, the probable location is located in the deepest part of the shallow surface of the Dark Crypt. It is only 17 miles away from the surface in a straight line, but it goes deep into the core area of the rich life underground. According to the information on the map, there are several large underground tribes in the vicinity of the suspicious location, and there are also many powerful underground creatures roaming around.
If you really want to go there, I'm afraid that if you don't have any thorough preparations, you're going to deliver food to those evil and cruel guys!
In the past few days, Mary has also been busy strengthening and improving her strength, and she is busy almost every day. When Grim seized the opportunity to reveal his plan to Mary, she immediately shouted to team up with him. On the contrary, she calmly told Grim that she had recently found a way to improve her combat power, and she was working hard, and it was impossible to go out in the near future.
So, Grim naturally handed over Kirby's control to Mary, putting her in charge of keeping an eye on the cunning boy every day, while he did his best to prepare the supplies needed for the underground expedition.
After everything was ready, Grim approached Kevin, greeted him, and said that he was going to the underworld to find some Dark Grass, and then used this as an excuse to sneak into the Dark Crypt.
…………
Truth be told, the Dark Crypt is not a great place to visit and travel.
The first time any sane surface creature steps into a dark crypt, the greatest manifestation is extreme depression. The thought of hundreds of tons of dirt and gravel pouring down overhead at any moment makes it impossible for any creature on the surface to remain as calm as it once was. In the Dark Crypt, any irrational behavior may reveal one's tracks, attracting hordes of predators.
For this trip to the underground, Grim can also be regarded as going all out, in addition to the demon crocodile hunter he is riding, there are also 3 quasi-witch-level rock python demon golems stored in his waist bag. If he really wants to encounter an invincible enemy, he only needs to sacrifice his life to release all three rock pythons, and he doesn't believe that any other enemy can stop him from escaping.
As for the other 2 water crystal nuclei and 2 wind crystal nuclei, Grim's witch array design is still being further refined, and it is estimated that there should be a result when this underground trip is over.
dudu1;
As soon as he entered the confines of the dark crypt, Grim summoned the crocodile hunter and sank into the dirt, following the direction indicated by the map, and continued to move deeper underground. With each passing distance, Grim would drive the crocodile to emerge in a dark corridor to further confirm his direction.
Relying on this method, it only took more than 3 hours for Grim to dive to a depth of about 10 miles underground. But further down, the speed of travel becomes extremely slow.
Large chunks of metal ore, huge rock formations, these are insurmountable moats for Grim as he walks through the dirt. In the dark and lightless earth, Grim's spiritual power could only extend to a maximum of one or twenty meters away, and it was very difficult to find a direct path to his destination in such a situation.
So after hitting the wall several times in succession, Grim could only emerge from a tunnel again. It can't be helped, it's better to travel through such a completely unfamiliar area and use the ready-made passages dug up by the creatures of the underground than to run around in the dim underground.
In the dark and damp corridor, Grim took out the crystal ball and used his positioning technique to reconfirm his position, and then slowly walked down the sloping passage.
Perched high on the back of a broad, flat crocodile, Grim wears a thick, tough traveler's cloak, a noble headband on his forehead, and his eyes are hidden in the strange goggles of a gwarf. Through the dim glimmer vision and the elemental vision that sees through the origin of matter, the passage in front of him is a completely different and strange world in Grim's eyes.
The background color of the entire field of vision is green, and the light is slightly dim, but everything can still be seen very clearly. All matter with elemental aura will emit the elemental halo unique to that element in the horizon, even if they hide behind thick stalagmites or hide in the cracks of the rock wall, their bodies may be able to cover it, but this colorful elemental halo cannot be hidden.
Based on the strength of the halos presented in the elemental vision, Grim could judge their strength even from a distance.
The weak let the demon crocodile hunter make a move, and a few clay spears were thrown over, and the hidden figure was pierced and killed in seconds, and the red blood flowed out of the broken body, and soon the last trace of life breath disappeared. And when it comes to those who are stronger, Grim will summon a rock python and crush the opponent into meat sauce with its incomparable rock body.
So along the way, those scattered underground predators can be regarded as encountering monster killers, and one by one they died inexplicably at the lurking site before they could wait for the prey to approach.
Scattered predators are easy to deal with, but the underground tribes that are entrenched in groups at the passes are no longer to be beaten. Like a gnoll tunnel, a lizardman's lair, such a guy Grim doesn't dare to provoke easily. Otherwise, once they come out, they will be able to defeat them, and I am afraid that all the monsters in this area will be alarmed.
However, as he quietly sneaked through the gnoll tunnel, a slender figure stood up in the dark, damp shadows he had just passed. dudu2;
This is an old gnoll who has entered the final course of his life. There were not many muscles on the thin body, an old, quaint dull dagger hung from his waist, and the rickety old body could no longer straighten up. But when it squinted its slightly cloudy cold eyes and looked in the direction where Grim had disappeared, an awe-inspiring powerhouse aura diffused out, almost freezing the air around it.
"Chief, the human is heading in the direction of the ruins!" a dark shadow suddenly emerged from the darkness.
"Let him go! It's just a small intermediate apprentice, and he can't make a big storm. The old gnoll leader's scarlet eyes lit up two small flames in the darkness: "A little further inside is the territory of the lizardmen." These guys have been holding us back from getting close to the ruins with their numerical superiority, and if you put a little bug in it, you might be able to add a bit of a mess to them!"
"Yes! The subordinates will arrange for the brothers at the outpost in front to let him go. The shadow bowed and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Grim was still stalking slowly in the dark. For some reason, he always felt a chill down his spine inexplicably, as if a yin wind was invading his body through the thick cloak, making him tremble slightly.
Damn, where did this ominous sign come from?
For a moment, Grim hated himself for not learning anything about witchcraft like divination and prophecy. Even if he is just learning a little bit, he can simply divinate the direction of danger, so as to make some preventive preparations.
Grim had secretly taken out the Screaming Branch a few times and looked at it, but he didn't notice anything unusual. This shows that the crisis is coming, but it is not consciously directed at itself. Could it be that the danger comes from inside that ruin?
Grim pondered slowly as he scanned the endless darkness around him more closely.
It stands to reason that with the perspective of elemental vision, it is impossible for any elemental user to get close to him silently. And in the underground world, apart from those terrible monsters, what kind of creatures can bring threats to their lives?
Grim's brain was thinking quickly, and the powerful underground biological data stored in the chip slowly flowed through his heart. In the vultures, there are several creatures that have alerted Grim.
dudu3;
Gnoll Ranger ...... Lizard Assassin ......
This seems to be their territory, and these two strange underground creatures do not belong to the category of monsters, which also means that there is no gathering of elemental energy in their bodies. However, they are still at the top of the list of dangerous creatures in the Dark Crypt. This shows that even without the power of the elements, they still possess formidable combat abilities.
Grim's heart sank.
With these combat abilities that rely on powerful physical abilities, elemental vision is difficult to spot, and shimmer vision is even more difficult to spot. I'm afraid that even Mary's infrared vision may not have much effect. So how do you notice these weird and difficult guys?
When Grim was anxious, the chip finally sent him a useful message.
Full Vision Matching Ability!
It's a way of spiritual perception that only Grim can do.
Every time he travels a distance, Grim can store and back up the terrain and landforms fed back by the shimmer vision and elemental vision in his mind. Then, with the powerful visual matching ability of the chip, you can find the small local differences between the two topography in the shortest time.
If there really was a cold-blooded assassin lurking on Grim's side, as long as it moved with Grim, then the shadow space it was in would definitely be slightly different from before. These differences cannot be discerned by the human eye, but it is difficult to avoid the undifferentiated full-vision matching of the chip.
As long as they can be detected, their threat will be reduced by more than 8 percent.
When the time comes, it's not that they're making waves in the dark, it's that Grim is going to punish them for their hubris!
