Act 57: The Search for Truth

"Oops, I didn't expect there's a little guy here. ”

Liliana only glanced at Bruce next to her, and didn't even bother to make a move.

The gap in strength between the two is like that of a giant and an ant, even if Liliana stands in place and lets Bruce do it at will, it is estimated that it will take more than ten or twenty years to scratch the skin.

This is absolute confidence in one's own strength.

"You...... Crimson Witch !?"

Bruce hadn't met Liliana herself, but he had heard of the hot-tempered, erratic, moving scourge of nature, and seeing Liliana's fiery red hair and sheer confidence, even a fool knew who he had met.

"As a mage, don't you have a little respect for your predecessors?"

Liliana frowned slightly, flicked her fingers, and Bruce felt as if she had been hit hard, and her whole body was distorted, and she hit the wall hard, and she couldn't get up again.

As for the guards, they had all fainted from Liliana's unconscious coercion when she entered.

Right now, only Magni was still conscious and standing in front of Liliana.

But for Magni, he would rather he had passed out.

Liliana in front of her was like a dragon spewing flames quietly looking at her dessert, and the breath she unconsciously emitted made Magni almost suffocate.

"So, Honorable Archon, Lord Magni, I'd like to ask why you're here, and if I'm not mistaken, that circle should be some kind of teleportation spell, right, where are you going?"

Liliana's sweet voice was like a demon's whisper in Magni's ears, and she didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

"I ...... The city can't hold on, and I have to call for help. ”

Magni said hesitantly that as the supreme leader of a city, he was the first to run away instead of standing up in the face of danger, which was almost equivalent to a great sin of betrayal, and in the North Olympic League, it was enough for him to spend the rest of his life in prison.

"Master Magni, do you know Fina Noelle?"

Liliana didn't continue to act with Magni anymore, and went straight to the point.

"Iβ€”I didn't mean to, I just heard that she could take us to find the treasure, so I ......"

Magni didn't dare to lie and hurriedly replied.

"Where did your news come from?"

Liliana looked around, it was supposed to be a Magni villa, beautifully decorated, and she didn't know how much taxpayer money she had stolen to get to where she was.

"Yes...... It's the connection in the endless abyss. ”

Magni said tremblingly, not even daring to look up at Liliana.

"The Endless Abyss?"

When Liliana heard this word, she immediately became interested.

"Yes, my lord, there are also some people who have lived in the Endless Abyss for many years, they have found a ruin in the depths of the Endless Abyss, but the key to open the ruin is missing, so they contacted me, and wanted to rely on my power to find Grimm Noelle on the ground and find the key to open the ruins. ”

"Why are you so sure it's Grimm Noelle, he is not strong, and it stands to reason that he can't enter the endless abyss that is too deep. ”

Not being able to enter the deeper endless abyss means that there is no way to access the treasures in the depths, let alone get the key from those strong people, Liliana asked, seeing sweat oozing from the corners of Magni's forehead.

"He'sβ€”he's a special case, my lord. ”

Magni spoke timidly.

"Grimm Noelle is the only one who survived the seventh level of the Endless Abyss. ”

......

The second layer of the Endless Abyss, the Netherworld's Cave.

This small cave is the size of a banquet hall, but the sight is quite interesting.

The bare stone walls are barren, and only the central part of the cave has a little light, like fireflies gathering.

But when Fina threw the lizard-like creature she had caught in another small cave into it, she noticed that all the points of light instantly gathered and wrapped the poor lizard, and then she heard the lizard's screams and began to struggle, and the points of light continued to transform with the lizard's movements.

After a long time, the light dispersed again, leaving only the corpse of the lizard, which had been sucked dry, and fell to the bottom of the cavern, where it became part of the cavern along with other weathered corpses.

"The Cave of Fluorescent Bugs, these points of light are actually small insects that gather here and lure other creatures with their light in the darkness to devour them, as long as we avoid the center of the cave. ”

Fina explained that a glimmer of light in the darkness is indeed quite tempting, and if you can't resist the temptation, you will incur death, and this cave must be a portrayal of the survival rules of the Netherworld's Cave.

The three of them have passed by three small caves after the Crystal Cluster Worm Cave, because the small caves are not large, so it is difficult to form large-scale environmental changes like the Crystal Cluster Worms, so these small caves are basically in their original state, but there are some special creatures, just like these fluorescent insects.

"Further down, it's supposed to be the first big cave. ”

As she spoke, Fina took out the sparkling crystals in the long corridor, illuminating an area around her, and then took out her notebook and flipped through it.

"This large cave is safe, and the cave master inside is supposed to be a gentle beast that sleeps all year round, and as long as we don't disturb its dreams, then we can go straight through this cave. ”

In the notebook, there is a picture of a giant creature sleeping, albeit with a few strokes, but it also outlines its morphological characteristics, apparently hand-drawn by Fina's father himself.

On the top of the notebook, the name of the cave is written, the Den of the Ridged Bear.

"Ridgeback bear...... It doesn't sound like a gentle monster......"

Edlandall had seen bears, and during his days as a night watchman in the Templar Inquisition, he sometimes passed through the forest, and each of them was so powerful that a single palm was enough to kill an adult, and in many places in fairy tales, bears were extremely dangerous creatures.

"This bear is very combative, but most of the time it sleeps, it is only awake for one or two days a month, don't worry. ”

The three of them exchanged information as they continued on their way, and finally, when a breeze came from ahead, they knew that they were about to arrive at a cave.

Rosen entered the cave first, followed by Fina, and finally Irandall.

In just an instant, the three of them entered an incomparably vast world from the originally pitch-black passage.

No, to be precise, the three of them were correctly in mid-air, falling down at high speed.
