Act 50
The first layer of the endless abyss, the sea of tranquility.
Next to the big hollow, Elandall looked under the dark cliff and swallowed.
"Is this the second layer of the Endless Abyss?"
"Yes, the second level of the Endless Abyss is actually a passage from the Sea of Tranquility to the middle of the third layer, but due to its unique topography and rising load, it is pulled out separately to become the second layer. ”
Fina explained that as an ordinary person, she naturally understood the meaning of going further down, but at this moment, Fina did not show the slightest fear.
"I'm the most familiar of us with the Endless Abyss, so you'll have to take me with you. ”
She said, looking at Rosen, who was the leader.
As for Rosen, there is another consideration.
Fina's knowledge of the Endless Abyss is important, but the secrets of the relics she carries are even more of concern to Lawson, although it is not yet known how to bring Fina up from the Endless Abyss, but at the moment, it is definitely not a good idea to leave her at the observation post.
"Ailandall, her safety is in your hands. ”
Rosen said, acquiescing to Fina's following, and then he looked at a wooden staircase next to the cliff.
The staircase extends from the cliff and spirals downward, appearing to be the path leading to the second level.
"This staircase is called the 'Infinite Cloister' and is the only way to the second level, and of course, this is only the only way on the surface. ”
As she spoke, she pulled out the notebook that Rosen had given her and had inherited from her father.
"The second layer of the Endless Abyss, the Netherworld's Cave, is based on this large hollow, a layer composed of endless caves, between the infinite corridors, there are hundreds of caves, and these caves are connected to each other, forming an intricate cave world. ”
If the Sea of Tranquility is a tropical rainforest, then the Netherworld Cave is a chaotic cavern that lurks underground, inhabited by a variety of flora and fauna, forming a unique ecology.
Except for the narrow tunnels formed by biological excavations or natural causes, the caves in the Nether Cave are divided into three types according to their size: large, medium and small.
Small caves are about the size of a room to a room, and most of them are places where creatures stop during their movements, and they do not have any major features.
Medium-sized caves are several times the size of small caves, and many creatures have settled here, and because of this, many medium-sized caves have a completely different ecology due to the environmental transformation of the organisms living in them over the years.
There are not many large caves, but they are the size of a city, and the powerful creatures of the Nether Cave live in them, and the environment of these caves varies greatly depending on the ruler.
In the Nether Cave, the Cave Master is the strongest creature in the Cave, and many of the caves that have been discovered are named after the species of the Cave Master.
For example, the famous large cave Red Dragon's Den is a space occupied by a wurm, and the entire cave is overflowing with magma, and the creatures inside have evolved skin that can withstand high temperatures in order to adapt to the environment, so it can be said that it is a fiery world.
For example, a medium-sized cave is the Sea of Red Algae, which is a space transformed by the creature of red algae, covered with red waters, and the cave master is a monster made of countless red algae.
Another example is the large cave that has been conquered by the explorers, this cave was originally dominated by a plant that has grown for an unknown number of years, the whole cave is full of greenery but hidden murderous intentions, the flower of gluttony is inhabited by other small animals to lure large predators, capture it and devour, and finally. After the explorers killed the Cave Master, it became a stronghold in the Nether Cave.
If the Endless Corridor descends at a normal speed, it will take at least a week to reach the third layer, and due to the existence of the Abyssal Breath, the uncertainty of flying directly down is too great to be rashly attempted.
And the shortcut exists in these caves.
"If you travel the shortest distance, it only takes one day to get through this level. ”
The notebook in Fina's hand naturally recorded various hidden paths.
"It's just that the road has to go through several large caves...... The danger is quite high. ”
Different from the Sea of Tranquility, the monsters in the Netherworld's Cave, especially the cave master of the large cave, are significantly higher than the monsters of the first layer, and most of the monsters that can become the cave master have the strength of the bronze level, and with the characteristics of some monsters and the huge size, it is comparable to a monster like the North Sea Monster.
Moreover, starting from the Netherworld's Cave, the monster will carry a trace of chaotic aura, which is okay for small monsters, some powerful monsters have begun to use this chaotic power to transform themselves, which is quite difficult.
"That's not a problem, as long as there are enemies in the way, then kill them all. ”
Rosen said lightly that the problems that could be solved with the sword were not problems for him.
"Then let's get off as soon as possible. ”
Elandall said that she had been browsing the posts on the forum, and had also seen someone filming it, Liliana's powerful attack, but the monsters were endless, and she could only defend against it by relying on her silver rank, and the key to solving this incident was still in the endless abyss.
If it is really a holy relic, Erandall has heard from the bishop that as long as the holy relic can be activated and awakened, then it is no less than creating a place of order, at least the order within the coastal area of Atlantia will be reconstructed, and monsters like the North Sea Monster that have mutated through the influence of the power of chaos will naturally not escape the purification of order.
"Well, okay. ”
Fina also packed her luggage and nodded.
"It seems that some people don't want us to go so smoothly. ”
Lawson didn't move, and said in a deep voice.
Almost at the same time, Irandall also felt several hostile glances.
"Who is it?"
She subconsciously mobilized her strength, and a glimmer of light lit up in her hand.
"That girl is important to us, and I hope you can give it to us. ”
From the woods, several people walked out, and after a closer look, they found that it was actually one of the expeditions that had entered the Endless Abyss together, and it seemed to be an explorer from the Wendland Federation.
At the head was a bearded man, his strong muscles could be seen through his leather coat, he seemed to be proficient in the use of a sword, his right hand was much thicker, and a delicate long sword hung from his waist, and his whole body exuded an unkind aura, which made Irandall quite jealous.
The strength of the other party is not bad, at least it is also the existence of the bronze level, and at this point in time it also takes the initiative to provoke conflicts, it seems that it is determined to win, if you fight hard, there may be a situation that is difficult to control.
Before Ai Randall hesitated, the other party had already taken the lead in pulling out the long sword, and the long sword rippled, making Fina feel a chill to the bone, obviously, that sword had killed at least hundreds of lives, and the bloody aura contained in it was difficult to completely eliminate it no matter how to cover it up.
The man took a step, raised his long sword, and put on a rather ferocious gesture, then spoke slowly and said in a deep tone.
"The Ninth Army of the Wendland Federation, Horace, in the name of the Federation, makes a request, and those who do not obey will be killed. ”
