0031 The Road to Mine Town

"The machine car didn't abandon us this time~" Outside the north gate of the underworld, at the public office bus station, a red-haired young man in a brown fur coat was sighing at the quietly parked machine car, fortunately, it was still early at this time, and there were no passengers waiting inside. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Although I don't want to interrupt your touch, Lao Hong" Wei Yi was still wearing the uniform of the Underworld, but added a slightly thicker blue jacket outside, and he patted Hong Ying on the shoulder: "But you should remember that we have discussed going on foot this time." ”

"It's the Ranger style to walk around when you're dealing with commissions, familiarizing yourself with the environment while investigating clues, and we're getting ready to try it out." Lea wore a black hard silk dress, a high-necked shoulder to block the mountain wind, and her long blue hair was tied up.

"You can't get on the bus." As for Lu Yao, who has special means of keeping warm, she was wrapped in a thick furry scarf by Li Ya in the name of [I think you are cold], she pulled off the scarf on the side of her mouth and said.

"Don't stop me, I'm going to scare!" Hong Ying seemed to be planning to give some lyrical speeches, but was startled by the aura that suddenly flashed under his feet, and completely forgot what to say.

"Buzz-" A large green circle centered on Lu Yao emerged, on which the nearby terrain could be roughly seen, and on the way to Mine Town in this "map", there was a red stick figure kitten flashing.

"The [Ring of Stress] detected the monster I found the first two times, but only for a moment." With the hooded girl's explanation, the stick figure kitten continued to flash twice before disappearing into the picture, but the last place it disappeared was highlighted by Lu Yao.

"Then let's go get it right away!" Hong Ying didn't care about the machine car anymore, and immediately walked towards the direction of the mountain road with a giant axe.

"In terms of the proportions of Xiao Yao'er's map, it will take a while." Lea looked at the "map" carefully, nodded and said.

"Let's go, let's go to the location where it appears and scout first." Wei Yi shook his head and beckoned Lu Yao to turn off the map and follow the red-haired youth who set off first.

The icon of the "cat" flashed a total of five times, each time there was a slight movement, and finally looking at the direction in which the "cat" disappeared, it didn't seem to be the mine town? So......

――――

"Earthshaker, Rock Demon, Hammer & Ram Attack, Trait: Terrain Destruction, Threat: Low."

"Spirit Butterfly, Spirit, Sonic Attack, Trait, Teleportation, Threat: Low."

On the mountain path leading to the mining town, the Hunters encountered two monsters in the shape of giant crabs and black butterflies, the former with huge pincers that smashed deep pits into the ground with every step, and the latter with a vague body that could not catch up with its flight trajectory even if they were staring closely, and could disappear in front of them and pounce from unbelievable directions if they were not careful.

Maybe it can make the unprepared travelers suffer a little, but this time they are very unfortunate to encounter the nemesis, when the earthshaker is still approaching the underworld hunters step by step, Hong Ying has jumped high and slashed down with an axe, smashing the big crab into the ground to form a big pit, it used the earth shaking in a hurry not only did not help but made itself deeper and deeper to the spirit butterfly, although their movements are very erratic so they can't aim, but their target will not move that way, So Leah completely ignored the distracting flight paths, aiming only at the positions they had to be in to attack their fellow hunters, and in one fell swoop - she pierced the wings of the butterflies on the same side, preventing them from taking off again, and even if they did, they would only spin and fall like a kite with a broken string.

"Whoa—" The sound of the fight stopped, and the sound of water, which had been muffled, rang out, "I really can't understand it with books/materials alone." The blue-haired girl and the girl with different eyes said in unison, and then looked at each other and smiled—only Leah, of course.

In front of them was an unusually wide waterfall, a river that flowed out from the direction of the Burning Charcoal Mountain, spread into a lake in a slightly gentle valley, and flowed straight down in a place with a huge drop in front of them, and the roaring sound of the waterfall and the waterhole colliding echoed in the valley, and the two monsters were quickly killed for disturbing the view of others, and the two monsters were considered unlucky.

"It's a pity that our position is above the waterfall, and if it is in the middle or below, the perspective must be more impressive." After making sure that the earthquaker at his feet could not climb out of the pit on his own, Hong Ying picked up his axe again and looked down at the lake formed by the waterfall and said.

"It forms the main stream of the River Styx, and it's too noisy for the sick to recuperate," Wei Yi, who hadn't had a chance to make a move just now, looked at the environment around the waterfall, "Otherwise, the School of Styx would have set the site here." ”

"It looks like it originated from Burning Coal, but in fact it is not, if you follow the river, you will see that it bypasses Burning Coal Mountain and joins more tributaries, and finally you will find that the source is actually the small lake under this waterfall in front of you, I really don't know when they were confused." As she walked, Lea gave everyone a brief overview of the nearby scenery, but she obviously couldn't tell what was going on, so she forcibly explained: "But there are many strange things in the underworld, and there are many such rivers that eat their tails. ”

"There is a fork in the road ahead, leading to the mining town 'Bloodstone' and ...... respectively" Seeing enough of the waterfall, Lu Yao used the ring to expand the map and add text to this pure topographic map to make it more intuitive, but she suddenly looked at the new marking text on it and was stunned for a moment, and then her tone was a little suspicious: "...... 'puppet workshop'?" ”

"I'll see...... If this location is located, it should be the 'Prosthetic Workshop'," Lea leaned over and looked at the map, and after thinking for a while, he said: "A long time ago, the underworld itself was a pure spirit body, whether it was in or out, travelers had to prepare a prosthetic body for themselves, unless it was strong enough to ignore the environmental threat and directly communicate with the real body, otherwise it would maintain the soul state, in this case, it was difficult to do anything, but because' The yarn tent has changed, and now it is no longer needed, and if there is a little strength, everyone can enter and exit freely, so the prosthetic workshop withdrew from the historical stage, and I didn't expect it to be changed to a toy. ”

"Toy......" Lu Yao, who was showing the map, flashed a few data streamers in his eyes.

"Let's stop by and visit, maybe the person in charge there has also seen the 'ghost tiger', but he didn't report it because he didn't think it was necessary." Wei Yi thought about it and made a decision.
