"It's the water source, right?"

Hill nodded, looking like you could still save it.

"We're currently on the second level of the dungeon, which is a huge jungle ecosystem, and the water source in front of us should be a lake."

Ivan finally found something wrong, the blue in front of him that could not be seen was much more exaggerated than the lake, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was the ocean.

"So what the hell is this place!"

"I thought you understood... I'm looking forward to you, and I'm really like a fool. ”

The girl covered her face and fully experienced the feeling of her IQ being pressed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.

"Listen, there must be a limit to the size of the dungeon, there is absolutely no way to have an ecosystem beyond its scope, and judging from this flat water surface, it will definitely not be an ocean." The girl cleared her throat and continued to puzzle the fool in front of her: "And this water source has no end in sight. ”

"So, the truth is that it's not that these creatures are huge. It's that we've been artificially shrunk. ”

"You mean we've all been hit by the Shrinking Ray since we entered the second layer?!"

Shrinking rays, one of the low-level transformation techniques of the transformation system, can change the size of things, and Hill's conclusion is that the animals and plants here are just normal, and they themselves are the most "anomalous" beings in this layer.

"That's right, it's the Academy's handiwork, we've been shrunk from the moment we leave the tree hole. As for why the animals chased us, I think it may be that the academy has done something to us. You can't even figure out such a simple fact. ”

"Ahem, actually, I already knew..."Ivan smiled awkwardly: "After all, how on earth are we going to end this state?" ”

As soon as the words fell, dots of magical light dust appeared from them, and these light dust swirled around the bodies of the two people, and in a strange colored light, everything returned to normal.

"Looks like this spell is supposed to be a spell that fulfills certain conditions."

Both Ciel and Ivan were looking at their bodies, and as they had guessed, some of the trees here no longer looked towering, and the "behemoths" were no longer visible in the jungle.

"The old witch is really scheming."

Andrea, who didn't know where, sneezed heavily.

"It's you who are stupid."

“……”

"Wait, where are you going?"

Finding that Ivan turned around and left, Hill thought he was angry, and his voice couldn't help but soften.

"Me? I'm going to settle accounts with the rabbit who chased me before, and see who is chasing whom. ”

"I'm really a fool, I'm worried about you......"

It's a pity that Ivan's revenge hasn't even begun before the mutation comes.

The space in front of them was suddenly torn open, and the teleportation "door" with an orange wave of light startled the two of them, but then the mood gradually became happy.

"It seems that this layer is a test of our observation ability by the academy, as long as we can see through the puzzle, we can naturally leave here."

The two of them walked into the vortex-like portal, and it was only a moment before they turned around, and they were far away from the sea of trees, and the surrounding area was transformed into a complex of buildings in the style of ancient underground ruins.

These structures are made of a special metal of dark yellow, mostly found on the northwest coast of the Irish continent, also known as the Dwarven Block due to its location in the Dwarven "Ambitious Kingdom".

"Wow, so much dwarven metal, did we run to the Kingdom of Ambition?"

"Get rich, get rich!"

Ivan looked speechlessly at the rather agitated Ciel.

The girl's eyes twinkled like stars, and it was obvious that she was an occupational diseaser.

"I said, can you not be so pragmatic? It's not these metals that are the priority. ”

"You know what? Dwarven metal blocks are not only rare in the Northlands, but even in the South, they have unusual prices, which archmage is not very wealthy? ”

"That's what I said." Ivan tapped the building twice with his staff: "But how do you want to take all these "gold coins" away?" ”

"This... I haven't thought about it yet. ”

“......”

In fact, the two of them still couldn't do anything about the metal in the end.

Ivan leaned in with the magic lamp while he had to endure Ciel's thoughts.

Compared with the first and second floors, the third floor can be regarded as an underground ruin.

Darkness filled most of the area, with only the ore growing everywhere providing a few rays of light, and strangely transparent jellyfish-like plants were the first species the two had received.

There are also countless pitfalls. A platform that resembles a flame-spewing platform, and two rotating mechanical wings, either of which could kill Ivan.

But fortunately, the tacit understanding between the two people is very high, and they can barely solve some traps just by helping each other.

However, it may be due to the fact that humans lose their sense of direction in the dark, coupled with the huge amount of underground ruins, Ivan and Ciel have not been able to find the right path until now.

However, the deadliest thing here is not the traps, but the ancient system of protection left behind by the owners of the ruins.

Enough to rival the magic technology products of the Great Goblin Era!

"Tongue of Fire."

Another flame enveloped the large iron ball in front of Ivan's eyes, but the ruins keepers knew no pain or fatigue, and their only purpose was to destroy the invaders. Even after a thousand years, they are still so faithful to protect everything in the ruins for their masters.

The tips of the dark bronze claws joined together, and from it stretched out a thin sword, which leaped through the scorching flames and charged towards Ivan like a knight.

"Surge."

The turquoise barrier formed by the tide pushed the ruins guardian out. Ivan took advantage of this opportunity to apply a ground trapping technique that made it difficult for the other party to get out for a while.

The biggest feature of these guardians is that they are durable, and Ivan has already thrown more than a dozen elemental spells at them, but they have no effect at all, so he can only temporarily control these iron bumps when he takes this opportunity.

"Winter is coming, frost, freezing everything!"

With the completion of the incantation, the surrounding heaven and earth suddenly changed color, a huge cold snap swept by, and the ground was covered with thick frost, and the deep mired ruin guardian was not exempt from self-heating, and the ice ridge climbed all over its body, and the exquisite design could not stop the will of the cold winter.
