Chapter 622: Sleepless Dream (2)
Monteloza is not an ordinary person, with his strength level, he was probably the strongest wizard in the contemporary era, and even now, there are only a handful of wizards in this world who are stronger than him. Because he is not an ordinary person, he can better understand how terrible the monster described by those civilians is, it is impossible at all, it should not appear!
Fortunately, Monteloza was not here to investigate any devil or giant, he just wanted to meet the legendary Arthur, but unfortunately, he did not get this opportunity.
An earthquake has struck the kingdom's capital, and the king and protector are gone!
In fact, on the way here, Monteloza also heard a lot of specious rumors, such as the direction of the Greenland Empire, there are some more incredible news, it is said that Arthur has gone to the capital of the Greenland Empire, it is said that the empire was raided by the Rhine Empire, it is said... But he doesn't believe the information that comes from hearsay or from so-called intelligence traffickers.
He only believes what he sees, and only interprets the world according to his own ability to understand! At his level, this is also the most correct thing to do. Ordinary people may still see flowers in the fog and regard the mirage as a fairyland, but they don't understand the deeper truth, but he can see everything clearly.
In his opinion, the appearance of this big hole has nothing to do with the "giant" and Arthur, it is a change in heaven and earth, or some kind of change. And in this case, Arthur obviously will not leave easily, and must still be hiding nearby. If you want to come to the Greenland Empire, there may be some similar changes, which make the rumors spread, such a huge change is always worldwide, and it will not happen in just one place. Because of this, the war between the two sides will suddenly stop when it is in full swing, because they each have more important things to do.
Monteloza looked up at the wizards who occasionally flew through the air, there weren't many of them, but considering that they were all wizards, he was still amazed. It's just that after the initial shock, he is now very calm.
Those wizards are not weak, but they are nothing compared to him, there are some problems in quantity, and the quality is average. According to his temptation, it is true. The most powerful of those wizards, the quantification of mana units, is only about one or two hundred units, and the weak, dozens or a dozen units of mana abound. can only be barely considered a wizard, barely a weakling. Among them, only two can fly on their own, and the remaining dozen or so are all riding big birds.
Generally speaking, a wizard who can fly by his own strength is definitely not too weak, but it is not absolute, and it depends on the direction in which he is good at it, not that those wizards who fly in the sky must be more powerful than him, who runs on the ground.
Through the actions of those wizards, and the abnormal amount, Monteloza could also guess that Arthur probably really mastered some kind of technology, some kind of method that could make even a very small number of ordinary people become wizards!
This was enough to arouse his vigilance and attention, but it was not enough to shock him, after all, the contrast of strength was there.
Such a wizard will not be his opponent if he comes to a group.
Of course, if Montaloza knew that in another part of the continent, in several other places, such a situation was more common and common, the sky was full of spellcasters, and the wizard who appeared was already able to form an army, and he didn't know what to think.
He didn't know that, so he was more curious about what was hidden in the unfathomable cavern than this anomaly.
He had been speculating about what kind of secret it was hiding, which, in his opinion, was the secret of the whole world!
He had deliberately infiltrated the kingdom's military garrison and turned the three kingdom soldiers who were selected to explore the pit into his puppets.
But these three people, after going down, never returned!
This surprised him very much, he could feel that those puppets had really lost contact and lost their lives, rather than being ordered to be in contact with him for the time being.
This is strange, after being turned into a puppet by him, in addition to some minor problems in his sanity, there will be a lot of improvement in individual strength, especially in terms of endurance, which cannot be called a perpetual motion machine, and his strength is amazing, and it is still no problem to increase his physical strength by ten or twenty times!
Climbing exploration tasks like this are far more physical tests than other aspects of physical fitness.
Not to mention that the physical strength is increased by more than ten times, even the physical strength is doubled, which is enough to reduce the risks that may be encountered several times!
According to the previous exploration and investigation report of the kingdom, no monsters or aliens have been found in this cave so far, and even if there are, there is no sign of attacking humans.
Although at the beginning, the exploration team lost some members, but it was only because of an accident and a serious lack of estimation of the environment, not because they were attacked or eaten by some monsters.
So, how can his three puppets be so prone to accidents. Not to mention following the team closely, even if you rush in, there won't be much of a problem. Why did they never return? Could it be that the kingdom discovered something and did something about it? It's not impossible, but it's really unlikely. These puppets are nothing in themselves, but who is the caster? It's him Monteloza! The spells he casts are so easy to spot?
Monteloza wanted to go down and explore it himself, but he was a little afraid of Arthur, who was hidden in the shadows. Besides, those wizards patrolling the sky obviously have better conditions for exploration, and they haven't seen any of them!
Such a situation was enough to arouse Monteloza's suspicion and make him more cautious.
In the small cavern, Mira hugged her shoulders a little stiffly.
It had been three days since he entered the "Hidden Cave", and in the past three days, he had been frightened a lot.
Fortunately, most of these frightens are false alarms, and this place is really the same as the people above said, except for cold spots, and occasional shortness of breath, there is no danger at all.
It looks unfathomable, like a link to hell, but there are no monsters here, and there are no strange winds that sweep people away all of a sudden.
Hearsay really can't be taken seriously, and now Mira is a little glad that she was chosen for this task, which seems dangerous, but in fact avoids military labor.
In the past, in the army, there was no hard work, except for normal drills, most of the time was spent in the battalion, waiting for orders, and you could also arrange your time freely, and you could go home every holiday.
But now, the whole country is in chaos, especially the royal capital, which is in ruins, so they, professional soldiers, have to do heavy work, more like coolies than coolies.
Originally, I thought that being selected for the expedition team was to go down to the secluded cave to feed the monsters, and die for life. Now it seems that it is really luck, not only can I make meritorious contributions, but I don't have to be so tired. It's just that the environment in the cave is a little worse, and ordinary people are afraid that they really can't stand it.
There is a small pit in the depths of the hole where only one person can curl up, and there is a stove that can be used for heating and hot food, and it is nothing more, this is a small stronghold.
When the carbon food comes down by itself, I bring a little bit of it, and every day someone will transport more from it with a hanging board, one for a small base, and another distribution for a large base, in short, it must be enough.
Food is more important than fuel, because it brings enough heat to the body, and as for the fire to keep warm...
Even if the fuel quantity limit is solved, the air itself tends to limit the amount of time they can spend heating and cooking with carbon fire!
Mira had heard in the barracks that burning requires not only combustibles such as wood, but also air, and he didn't know why, and the person who told him didn't understand it himself, but it didn't prevent him from understanding this phenomenon, and things can't burn without air.
This time, the people above also specifically explained that don't use the stove excessively. It seems that there have been some people who used excessive carbon fire when heating in the base, which put themselves in danger, and some died suddenly because of it.
In any case, there is a precedent, so you have to be cautious, even if it is very cold, Mira will not joke with her life until she really can't bear it anymore. This should be considered one of his few strengths, and some people consider it a disadvantage, because it makes him look very timid and blind, with a long and large body.
Tossing and turning for a while, Mira tugged at the blanket and opened his eyes helplessly, he found that he couldn't sleep.
It's also normal, no one can adapt to an environment that is so different in that short time.
Mira sat up, holding her head out of the railing. It was pitch black outside, and from his vantage point, he could barely see a little bit of fire peeping through the cave without the slightest heat, and he could see ropes on one side wall.
Right next to the cave, there is a row of escalators nailed to which one can stand up and down, and can also safely check and replace the ropes on one's body. There are several strongholds, but ropes up and down often need to be replaced, and it is impossible to enter the stronghold every time to replace them.
Of course, this escalator is not available all the way, and in many places, you can only use the power of the rope to go up and down, and there is no place to climb and land.
There are only two types of strongholds in the caves, small and large.
The small base is probably the same, with a small hole carved out of the wall for people to fit in, and although the inside is small, because it is sunken in, there is also a block outside, so you can sleep with peace of mind and eat until your mouth is hot.
In the case of large strongholds, the situation is much better, generally digging into a depth of several meters or even ten meters, people can even walk in it, but there are not many such strongholds, the top is fine, there is one every 100 meters, the more below because the difficulty of excavation has increased greatly, the more sparsely distributed, the lowest position, the two largest strongholds that are close to each other, have been separated by nearly a kilometer, the further down, the smaller the size of the stronghold.
