Chapter 237: The Thousand-Year Cicada Cave



The Black Shadow's plan was perfect, but there was a loophole, because now there was an unexpected person next to those two children. Although at this moment, the sudden intruder of Black Film and Television is just an insignificant passer-by and can be easily erased. But soon reality will make her realize this fatal mistake.

Just as the black shadow gave that terrible order, Jiwen was leading the two elven girls along the dark and winding cave to the mouth of the cave leading to the sewer.

In the darkness not far away, the sound of gurgling water came slowly. It only took a few more steps to get out of the small cavern, but Givens had the two children hide in the bend of the cavern, and then crept to the edge of the cave by themselves.

After countless battles, Given's instincts were as special as those of the seasoned warriors. There must be something hidden in the darkness on the other side.

Ji Wen leaned against the entrance of the cave, took out a few homemade flash balls, pressed the pressure plate heavily, crushed the tiny lightning magic crystals in the flash balls, and then threw these small black balls into the air outside the cave entrance.

In an instant, a blinding flash of light illuminated the entire sewer, and Jivin rushed out of the hole almost at the same time.

A team of six people lurked near the entrance of the cave, four warrior-clad tigermen holding steel crossbows with magic inscriptions, aiming in the direction of the cave entrance, while a sandman assassin controlled the sand golem to guard the only sixth-order elven summoner in the team.

Given's flashbang caused the Tigerman warriors to temporarily lose their sight and shoot their crossbow arrows indiscriminately, but the Sandman Assassins and Elven Summoners at the back of the team all dodged the flash and prepared to meet the sudden appearance of Given.

But the ambush soldiers soon discovered the accident on the battlefield, and the unassuming elf in front of them did not dodge the magic crossbow arrows at all, but rushed up against the random fire of the steel crossbow.

The flying bolts passed through his body without hindrance, sparking sparks on the walls of the sewers, and even the poisonous thorns urgently cast by the elven summoner only caused his body to flash a strange red light.

This strange elf actually has a spirit body with magic resistance!How could such a terrifying enemy comparable to a level 8 summoned creature appear here!

Given, without giving these enemies time to react from their shock, he pulled out Fate and the adamantite dagger, and stabbed in

The two fighters at the front of the line. Neither the heavy armor nor the defensive inscriptions on the armor could stop the ethereal blade, and the deadly blade had already slit their throats before the two warriors could wake up from the thrill of the flashbang.

The two remaining warriors threw away their crossbows and drew their magic weapons in an attempt to stop Given's tracks, but they soon discovered their mistake. In the face of the sword skills of the dragon warriors and the all-indestructible blade of fate, their defensive skills are useless. The giant sword in Jiwen's right hand and the ice magic generated by the dagger in his left hand alternately reincarnated, smashing madly at his opponent, and the coordination was almost seamless.

Moments later, one of the tiger warriors was smashed against the wall of the sewer by a huge ice arrow, the bone-chilling cold and the wound on his chest made his heart stop beating, while the other warrior finished casting the shield wall, used up all the defensive items on his body, and even protected the shield and the magic blade on his chest, but he still couldn't stop the giant sword that glowed with black magic light from penetrating his body.

If it weren't for the tactics that were specifically designed for the spirits, in this kind of close-quarters encounter, Jiwen would be almost invincible against opponents who were not spirits.

The sixth-order silver-veined elven summoner was the first to realize that his opponent was terrifying, and he immediately released a suffocating poisonous gas mass in the narrow sewer, and then let his summoned beast air element block in front of Jiwen, and finally fled into the darkness behind him without looking back. Sensing his teammates' retreat, the Sandman Assassin threw his magic dagger at Given, and then escaped into the darkness under the cover of Flash Dust and Wind Sand.

The thick poisonous fog and air element did hold back Ji Wen's footsteps, and when Ji Wen sent the air element back to the forbidden god space, the surrounding poisonous fog dissipated, and the two fleeing enemies were long gone.

But the two children are still hiding in their caves, and the bloodthirsty bugs could attack at any moment.

At the moment when Jiwen hesitated, a terrible wolf howl was heard in the sewer in the distance. The fierce and furious voice that Givan had heard before, it was the cry of the Moonlight Spirit.

Hearing that voice, Gilvin immediately hid his fate in the storage ring, and soon, the bright outline of the moonlight appeared in Given's field of vision.

Valé "Shadow" trotted over with the "moonlight" and watched as blood droplets were flowing from the moonlight in her hands. Givens suddenly realized that he could not worry about the two fleeing enemies.

"Do you see the two elven children?" Valley said in a panicked tone, asking first when she saw Jiwen. Jiwen hurriedly pointed to the hole behind him and replied, "They are hiding inside, and they are safe for the time being." ”

After listening to Jiwen's answer, Valley hurriedly scanned the corpses of the tiger warriors on the ground, and then burrowed into the cave. After simply cleaning the props on the tiger warriors, Jiwen also retreated to the cave.

As soon as Gevin stepped into the cave, he saw Valley crouching beside the two children, opening a cloth bag containing several materials such as sulfur crystals, and clumsily trying to feed the crystals to the two children.

To the two children, ordinary sulfur didn't seem to be as tasty as the sulfur claw crystals, but they still devoured the yellow crystals into their stomachs, and soon the small bag of crystals was divided up by the sisters.

After watching them finish eating, Vallet stood up again. She looked back at Given, then whispered a thank-you.

"Thank you, Copperbeard, for getting you involved again. ”

On the way back from buying the materials just now, she already found herself being followed. The enemies she is tracking are strong, and in order to avoid attracting more enemies, she has the choice of taking a detour and then using the sand golem to throw them away. But while she was shaking off the enemy, she was afraid that the enemy would have already discovered her whereabouts, and that the Dorian sisters hiding in the sewers would be in danger.

Just as Valley was running out of skills, she suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd, and the impulsive Subway Craftsman Copperbeard was right in front of her. So Valley did not hesitate to entrust him with the task of protecting the child.

And this time, Vallet found that her adventure was the right one.

If it weren't for the help of Copperbeard this time, the two children would have been in danger long ago.

The corpses outside the cave entrance, and the bloodstains on the copperbeard at this moment, are the best proof. Copperbeard's combat ability was even stronger than she expected, at least he could clean up these enemies who were equivalent to fifth-order hedron warriors.

Thinking of this, Valley took out her not too full money bag, and then pulled out a few magic crystals.

"What is this for?" Givens didn't expect Valley to do that.

"I can't repay your help now, that's a little interesting, I'll find a way to pay you the official reward later. ”

Although Valé is a desert thief, most of her robbery income is distributed to those villages and tribes who need money more, and she herself is not wealthy, not to mention that this trip to the royal capital also cost a lot of savings, and now she only has so much left in her pocket.

But Givan shook his head, then pointed to Valley's white-worn leather armor, and then to the two elven girls on the ground.

"You keep it, I see you need money more than I do now. ”

Seeing Jiwen's movements, Vallei immediately looked down at her leather armor, then sighed and put the magic crystal into her money bag.

"Then I owe you. ”

"Okay, let's leave the money alone, can you tell me who these two kids are, and how did they get like this?"

Although he had already guessed that the two children must have the evidence to be the one Valley said, he had to question the two children in order to maintain the identity of the copper beard.

In the face of doubt, Valley concocts a bizarre and tragic story, but that story does not involve body modification. Seeing that Valley didn't want to tell the truth, Givens didn't pursue it.

But the false story reminded him that he thought of a lot of things, so he opened his storage ring and pulled out two necklaces from it. One of them nourishes the carrier's body, while the other provides a sustained release of analgesia and helps the user to unite in the midst of pain.

Givens put the two necklaces around Dorian and Maiwen's necks, and patted them on the heads.

"This is a gift to you. ”

Although Jiwen knew that these two props could not save anything, those two necklaces would at least help them to suffer less in the last moments of their lives. After doing all this, Givens asked back.

"What now? Isn't it time for us to go up. ”

Valley watched Jiwen's actions all the time, a little distracted, until Jiwen opened his mouth to ask.

"No, let's go back to the ground in a different way. ”

Valley knew that the intersection had been exposed, and she didn't know what kind of enemy would be guarding there. And if you retreat from that direction, you will encounter that difficult black shadow again. Vallet didn't want her to know where she was.

Vallet picked up the moonlight and prepared to go deeper into the crypt. Seeing this, Ji Wen hurriedly reminded: "But there are thousand-year-old cicadas there, and we just encountered them just now." ”

Having spent years in the desert, Vallet wasn't familiar with the monsters that only found in the woods, but it seemed to her that these monsters that acted on their killing instincts were better than those who were full of intrigue. So she picked up the moonlight and replied, "I have walked this road once, and I can return to the sewer through the other exit." If there are any millennium cicadas on the road, leave them to me. You just help take care of the kids. ”

Seeing that Valley had made up her mind, Givens did not continue to persuade her. After all, he also knew that returning the same way might lead to more enemies, and it would be more difficult to hide the whereabouts of Valé and his party, and only by changing the road could he get out of danger safely. Anyway, with Vallei's skills and moonlight, it shouldn't be a big problem to clean up those thousand-year-old cicadas, and the road should be safe.

Thinking of this, Givens picked up the two children and followed Valley deeper into the crypt.

They quickly passed through the cavern full of corpses of enemies and thousand-year-old cicadas, and then passed through a series of caves. Although traces of the activities of the millennium cicadas can be found from time to time along the way, none of the millennium cicadas are seen.

So they made their way through the crypt without any danger, and soon came to the vicinity of the exit that Vallet had spoken.

This is a wide cave, and if you walk through it and walk up a slope, you can climb into a gap in the top of the cave. And that's the gateway to the outside world. At this moment, the murmuring of the sewers was flying along the winding passage, through the gap, into the cave.

The sound of running water gave everyone hope, and Given's steps became brisk. But just when everyone thought they would be able to get out of danger soon, a strange vibration echoed in the cave.

It was the sound of countless sound waves hitting the ground, coming together.

Under the impact of the huge vibration, tiny stones jumped on the ground, and even the footsteps of people shook.

Valley, who was at the front of the group, had a grim face, and she held the moonlight aloft in the air, allowing the bright light of the moonlight to illuminate the entire cavern. The walls and floor of the cave were densely covered with a large number of holes and crevices, and the sound of vibrations came from the holes and crevices.

As the sound grew louder and louder, suddenly, a tidal wave of thousand-year-old cicadas poured out of the crevices of the cave, forming a terrifying stream of insects that covered the entire ground.

Almost instantly, Valley went berserk, her eyes turned red, and her body became werewolf-like. Transformed, she roared in that distinctively hoarse voice.

"Copperbeard, take care of those two children!"
