Chapter 69: Tracking
As it gets late, Carey keeps making fire, thunder, and bullets, and Ari watches curiously.
Roy didn't want Carey's secrets to be exposed to the guards, separating the guards' rest quarters from them.
"Miss Ari, take the liberty of asking, you Kars should have a lot of alchemists, right?"
"Actually, it's not much, except for six old people...... Outside the six elders, not many of the younger generation have mastered alchemy, many of them are still in the elementary stage, and even fewer are intermediate, I heard that Dinah's level is already comparable to that of the elders. ”
Ai Rui picked up one of the muskets, looked at it curiously, and continued: "His ability is also very rare, and he can use it so skillfully to create source texts, and he has reached the intermediate level. ”
"But I'm just a combatant, and I don't know much about her when I hear her talk to me. ”
"Miss Dinah is so strong, it seems that I should have kept her at all costs to ......," Roy said with some regret.
"I heard Belle say that Carey has only been studying alchemy for about a month?"
"I don't know the specifics, but it seems to be ......"
After doing five fire thunderbolts in a row, Kaili wiped the sweat from his forehead and said helplessly: "I'm here, what are you going to ask him for?"
"Rightly, yes, a month and seven days, isn't it amazing?"
"In addition to the energy source text, which doesn't look very good, the use of the creation source text is indeed excellent. Ari commented very pertinently.
"Hmm...... In fact, he gained an ability because he ate the source fruit...... "Taylor mends the knife at the right time."
"I see, but even the supernatural is very good, the last person who can master alchemy extremely quickly was a genius who belonged to the church a hundred years ago. ”
"Alright, if you have time to chat, please help me get some iron ingots......" Carey looked at Taylor and added, "Your greatsword is also here, I want to copy one." ”
"Okay, Roy finally has another macho man like me by his side......"
......
The next day, Carey felt his head swell again, which was a sequelae of overusing his abilities, and yesterday he forced himself to use it until he was dizzy and nauseous before giving up making it.
Of course, the results were also remarkable, almost consuming most of the source stones that Roy brought.
A large sword flowing with red source text, more than two fire mines, and three muskets, and the rest were some bullets, and the bullets also flowed with red source text.
In addition, there are some auxiliary life-saving rune stones such as the source stone that can instantly start to block the source text to prevent accidents, and the auxiliary life-saving rune stones that can instantly rise a stone wall.
"So you guys discussed how to go down yesterday?"
Carey was concentrating on crafting items yesterday, handing over the headache to the three chatters.
"Of course, it's up to our beautiful Miss Ari to show off what she's capable of. Roy moved out of the way, allowing Ari to walk in front of him.
"Excuse me, Miss Ari. ”
"It's just a small thing, you're kind......" Ari replied simply, pulling a seed out of his pocket.
Carey looked at it, a bit like a pea, but with a film on the outside of the seed.
"This is the house tree that our elves use to build their houses, and with the blessing of my ability, it grows quickly, and its leaves are as hard as planks, which can make it easy for us to go on. ”
After two explanations, Ari threw the seed into the pit.
After waiting quietly for almost ten minutes, when Carey thought it would be better to find a rope to go down, suddenly an ugly plant emerged from the pit.
Its leaves are wide enough for three people to stand at the same time, and the leaves on the house tree are not luxuriant, but they are scattered and can be progressed down the ladder along its leaves.
"Can this really stand up?" Taylor asked, skeptically
"Or do I think I can get a rope tied to my body, and at least if I fall, I won't fall to my death?" Carey also suggested.
"I can show you first, it's a very easy thing to do, of course, it's better to bring a torch so you don't lose sight of the position below. ”
After saying that, Ari jumped directly, dexterously stood on a wide leaf, ran a few steps, came to the position of the stem and leaf link, lowered the center of gravity of his body, and jumped to the position of the next leaf again.
"How's that? It's pretty simple, isn't it......"
The three of them looked at each other again, and suddenly felt that this matter was not so reliable, and the guards behind them also looked at each other, obviously not daring to try.
"My lord, I'll go find some vines and tie them to this tree, so that it is safe to go down slowly...... Joseph thought for a moment and proposed.
"Well, okay, you can take someone to cut down some solid vines. ”
"Actually...... It's really not dangerous. "Eri jumped lightly on the tree of the house, and was extremely nimble, but just looking at it, he always felt that the leaves swaying up and down were very insecure, and there was no doubt that they might break at any time.
It took some time again until Joseph had found vines and tied one to each of them before trying to walk down from the leaves of the house tree.
A total of seven people went down in this operation, and the rest continued to guard it and pick up those who went down at any time.
Upon reaching the bottom of the pit, Carey found that there was no darkness as he had imagined, and that there was a faint glow.
He took a torch and took a closer look, and the crystals of the source stones were covered in the rocks, judging by the light emitted, they were slightly better than the quality of the previous mines.
Roy obviously noticed this phenomenon as well, approached a stone wall, and took a closer look: "It seems that there are good source mines down here." ”
"Moreover, I found that this passage seems to have existed for a long time, not like it was dug recently. Taylor walked around and shared his findings.
Carey took a few quick steps and shone his torch on the ground, stray footprints and puddles of foul-smelling black liquid spreading deep along the path.
"It seems no longer necessary to guess that they will go down that side. Carey checked the traces at both ends of the corridor and said confidently.
"Maybe they didn't even think about hiding their traces. ”
"Alright, check what you're carrying, and we're ready to head out to see what this defector from the Star Spirit wants to do. Roy interrupted the small talk.
"My lord, what are we carrying these oil bottles for?" asked one of the guards, a little puzzled.
"You probably didn't see Lord Carey fighting that monster, so I don't know, those monsters are afraid of fire, you know?" Joseph explained.
"Yes, those monsters can't be defeated by numbers, so you should make good use of the oil bottles you carry and throw them as much as you can, understand?" Taylor had never seen mutated monsters, but he had heard of them at least twice.
"Understood!"
......
A total of seven people, with supplies and weapons, slowly advanced along the road.
After walking for most of the day, everyone didn't know how far they had gone, so they would rest for a while when they were tired, and eat some dry food when they were hungry.
But there was no sign of anyone in sight, and the corridor was quiet, with no monsters or mechanisms, which made Carey wonder if he was in the wrong place.
But the ability he gained through Pierre's nasal bone reminded him that they weren't going in the wrong direction.
