Chapter 166: Step by Step

"Wait, stop digging. ”

After Hong Tong reminded him, Zhan Tianjue pressed all the floating soil at hand into the surrounding tunnel wall and strengthened it by the way. I controlled a breath of fresh air to enter, and I walked over to the two of them.

I pressed my arm against the cave wall, and when I came over, I turned my head and signaled to Feng'er. Feng'er immediately released her magic power, forming a wind wall the size of a pit on the earth wall in front of us. Feng'er made a posture of pushing her right palm flat against the wind wall in front of her, and the wind wall pressed into the earth wall and slowly pushed forward. Zhan Tianjue immediately released his magic power to cooperate with the wind wall to move forward and strengthen the tunnel wall.

The magic power of my hands slowly released, and the temperature in the tunnel plummeted, and Hongtong immediately stood in the middle of the three of us and released the heater.

Suddenly, the scenery opposite the earth wall under the spirit of light changed from earthy yellow to a faint white, and an ice flower suddenly formed around the wind wall. The four of us couldn't help but cheer, and after a week of excavation, we successfully dived more than 80 meters underground, and connected the tunnel with the underground pool. We were in a good position, only 2-3 meters from the top of the crypt.

Zhan Tianjue, who had completed the task, waved his hand, and several light spirits flew out through the wind wall. The spirit of light that flew out caused the demonic beasts in the water to rush over, and with the light, we finally saw the true face of the demonic beasts in the water.

Treasure Cantis.

The dragon's head is twice as large as its body but has no horns, it is seen in length from 10 meters to 100 meters, it is different in color but it is relatively dark, and it has two pairs of small wings without legs, and its body is covered with scales like fish scales. This guy can only live in the water, and he loves all kinds of treasures by nature. It will be attracted by the treasures in the water, gather around the treasures, and will never leave without swallowing the treasures.

The treasure mantis has infinite power and amazing swimming speed, especially the two pairs of small wings that travel through the water as fast as lightning after opening their wings, and the treasure mantis in the water can completely cross the realm to challenge the human master.

"Boss, the academy actually uses this kind of magical beast to guard the underwater treasure pavilion!"

"No, the Treasure Claw cannot be tamed, and it also has a habit of swallowing treasures. Therefore, these treasure mantis should have been caught and thrown into this deep pool when they were young. ”

"But Master, how can we ...... this thing in the water?"

A huge green snake appeared in front of the wind wall, and scared Zhan Tianjue so much that he swallowed back what he was about to say. I tried to move my fingers, and the snake eyes were clearly following mine, and it seemed that the ring in my hand had attracted the attention of the treasure mantis in front of me.

It's not a problem that this guy is always blocking our view, so I flew towards the huge snake eye with a few wind blades in my hand. The serpent's eyes closed before my wind blade could reach the wind wall, and then sank rapidly. The wind blade slashed across the treasure mantle's head, sending a splash of sparks, but the scales were not damaged in the slightest. It seems that the Treasure Cantis can sense magic, and it is not easy for magic to hit them in the water.

"Brother, what should we do now?"

I groaned slightly and then looked at the deep pool that shone with a slight white light: "Feng'er Wind Wall slowly pushes forward, Tianjue waits for us to go out, you draw a demonic array on the ground at the junction of the mouth of the pit and the waterhole." Hongtong, you pay attention to the degree of heating output. Let's use a stupid trick to slowly build an ice tunnel to the Treasure Pavilion. ”

"Boss, why don't we build a wind passage to drain the water and directly connect the barrier between the mouth of the pit and the treasure pavilion, and then quickly condense an ice tunnel on the periphery of the wind channel. Boss, I know you're worried that this shield will pick up a warning device from the outside, but you can see that those treasure cries are directly hitting the barrier of the Treasure Pavilion. Even if our wind tunnel and ice tunnel touch the energy shield, it probably won't trigger the warning. ”

"Xiaotong, that's what I thought. First of all, we don't know exactly what kind of power the enchantment is endowed with, and if the wind magic and ice magic collide directly, it will most likely trigger an alarm. And we don't know what the attack power of those two level 3 claws is, I'm worried that if you build too much at once, the ice wall will be broken if it is not strong enough. Anyway, there is a year, so don't rush to take your time. ”

"Okay boss, I listen to you. ”

Although Hong Tong said that, his expression was still a little lonely, and Hong Tong was more lost, I can understand. He has no adaptability to water, and the soil is extremely poor, so he feels very aggrieved that he can only be a heater. But this kind of thing can't be helped, without the adaptability of the elements, the corresponding magic can't be used, it's born to die.

"Xiaotong, you and Tianjue are responsible for drawing a reinforced magic array every meter on the surrounding ice walls. ”

We built an ice tunnel of more than 5 meters today, and I reinforced it to the level of a dark blue 10,000-year-old ice, even if it is a saint-level mantle, it will not be easy to break through it.

When we were about to finish today's project, Zhan Tianjue put a dark blue basketball-sized blood pill into the core of the demonic array he had drawn, and the magic array engraved on the ice wall emitted a faint blue light. I condensed the water behind the wind wall into an ice wall, Feng'er immediately removed the wind wall, and Hong Tong immediately came over and carved a reinforced and restored magic array on my newly condensed ice wall.

I glanced at the huge enchantment that shone with white light in the distance, it is reasonable to assume that the enchantment of the energy guide cannot be so huge, obviously it is because of the special leylines of the Five Elements Peak that the energy of this energy guide can be supported, Datong Academy is really a unique place.

The ice passage is still at least 100 meters away, so you can only come step by step.

As I exhaled and prepared to leave, a sense of foreboding came over me.

"Feng'er!

When Feng'er jumped into my arms and got out of the ice tunnel, two behemoths in the water suddenly came out. They slammed into the ice tunnel, and the entire ice tunnel immediately burst into blue light, and the magic array carved into the ice wall all lit up. Each time the two huge shadows collided, a crack appeared in the ice wall, and a large amount of ice broke off and floated to the surface. Not only the ice tunnel, but also the tunnel we were in trembled with each of their impacts, and a huge roar echoed through the tunnel, shaking our eardrums.

I didn't care about the pain in my ears, so I quickly held on to the tunnel wall and hugged Feng'er tightly to avoid falling because of the shaking under my feet. I shook my head to let the dizziness from the roar in my ears fade a little, and immediately looked up at the cracks in the ice walls.

The cracks were shining with blue light and were closing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the blue light flashed in the depression where the ice had fallen off, and the ice that had fallen off returned to its original place.

After about 10 minutes, the speed of the ice wall repair has caught up with the speed of the destruction of the two monsters. However, they attacked less and less frequently, and when they attacked again, the damage from the previous ice tunnel had been completely repaired. I looked at the dark blue blood pill in the reinforced and restored magic array, which seemed to be a little smaller.

"Boss, I'm glad you did what you said, otherwise they would have attacked us in the middle of the line. ”

"Of course, brother is the best!"

Looking at Feng'er who was smiling and groaning at me proudly, I couldn't help but feel good, and I took her hand and lifted it to the top of her head to caress it gently, and she squinted her eyes comfortably. At this moment, an uninteresting small gravel fell on my head, and I couldn't help but look up, and small pieces of earth and stones on the top of the cave fell from time to time, and the sound of impact kept coming from overhead.

"Such clever brutes, when they saw that the ice wall could not be broken, they let the little cocktails crash into the mountain wall above, trying to put pressure on us from above and cause our tunnel to collapse. If you don't give them a little hardship, it seems that it will not work. ”

Feng'er volunteered to say, "Brother, I'll come!"

I nodded to Feng'er, and her arm was raised and slammed against the top of the pit wall, and the magic power was immediately released, and after reciting the spell silently for a while, she suddenly shouted: "Mountain hedgehog!"

Suddenly, the water above the ice passage suddenly stirred, and after a while, blood spread, and the sound of the impact from the roof of the cave disappeared.

"Master, did you let the tunnel exit be opened only 2 meters from the top of the deep pool, did you take into account that this situation would occur?"

"Yes, Tianjue. The entire large cave here is completely filled with water, and our cave entrance is high, so these two large treasure mantis naturally can't hit the earth wall of the cave roof. I really want to thank you, Tianjue, your innate talent in civil engineering is really amazing. ”

The Zhan family was known to be a master in engineering magic in ancient times, and some of the whimsical ideas of using magic to construct projects recorded in some of the ancient materials of their family that Zhan Tianjue showed me were really eye-opening. Zhan Tianjue has inherited this family's talent very well in using magic to construct projects, and I have to say that he is really smart. Being able to construct the tunnel in the right place so accurately this time really helped his natural instincts.

If you don't do it, I will help Feng'er to stand upright. He walked straight to the mouth of the tunnel, pressed his hand on the ice tunnel, and the ice tunnel immediately turned into a translucent blue giant mace. In front of my eyes, as if teleporting, two huge figures suddenly appeared in the water, and it was only then that I could see their true faces for the first time through the faint white light.

The two Rank 3 Treasure Cantis were one blue and one yellow-black, their heads were more than three times larger than their bodies, and there were huge sarcomas on the top of their heads, but their sarcomas looked very hard, and they glowed like jade against the white light. The two Tier 3 Treasure Cantis were both over 200 meters long and had three pairs of small wings on their bodies, and the ratio of wings to their bodies was larger than that of any other Treasure Cantis, so it was not difficult to imagine why they moved so quickly in the water.

I looked down at the Blood Pill that filled the core of the Demon Array, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. The blood pill seems to have only been consumed slightly, and it seems that it should not be a big problem to support it for half a year.

Feeling stared at with hostile eyes, I turned my head to look down at the ice tunnel. Four turquoise eyes pierced through the ice tunnel and stared at me viciously. It seems that the two level 3 treasure mantis are really angry. Demonic beasts like them naturally have wisdom for a long time, but they are arrogant and disdain to communicate with humans, and in their eyes, humans are just snacks. Blocked by my little human, they are naturally in a bad mood.

But I like to see them look very upset with me, and make me look helpless.

So I smiled and waved at the two of them, turned around and walked out of the pit with everyone. The roar of anger echoed through the tunnel, but we collectively ignored it. When we arrived at the shaft of the tunnel, the excited Feng'er took the initiative to send us out of the ground with an earthen pillar, of course we would not fight with our little sister.

The next night, we dived into the pit again.

This time we learned our lesson, and we all left the vows in the tunnel. There was no attraction of treasures, only the occasional few treasure mitweens came running to carry out a limited harassment. Although the two level 3 treasure mantis saw that we were repairing the ice tunnel, it was difficult for us to mention their interest without treasures, so they just glanced at us and sank into the depths of the pool.

The blue and faint "mace" in the deep pool has advanced smoothly for 20 meters, and it seems that we will be able to build the ice tunnel connecting the tunnel to the Treasure Pavilion energy shield in a week.
