231. Energy source
"That's pretty much it."
Karp looked at Eevee, who was bandaged with four bandages in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief.
The burns on Ibu's body were coated with special burn medicine and bandages, and the pain on Ibu's face was relieved a lot.
The effect of the Liberation Drugs has passed, and Eevee has reverted to a normal Eevee.
Once this was confirmed, Karp retrieved Eevee from the Poké Ball, then took out a bag of liquid food and held it to his mouth. It doesn't taste like much, but it fills the stomach and replenishes the necessary nutrients, and the little Kirby Beasts had eaten it when Karp was healing Eevee, so now Karp can eat it while thinking about his next plan.
"It's almost enough to surprise the masked man, so the next thing to think about is how to get out of here."
Karp ate up a bag of liquid food and put away the trash, then frowned silently.
"Speaking of strength, the masked man is stronger than Principal Austin, but now it looks like he was forced into a cave like this - and he hid me frozen into an ice sculpture, so I guess I'm going to deal with Principal Austin."
Karp analyzed the specifics of the matter a little, and several obvious answers came out like this.
"The masked man doesn't seem to be exposed yet.、It's not his purpose to snatch talents.,His purpose has been drawn in the special manga.、He just wants to capture Shellabi to resurrect his dragon-riding parents.。
So he won't reveal it now, and the best plan for him is actually to get out of the island after he catches me - but now that he's still on the island, it shows that Principal Austin must have done something to keep him from leaving.
At this time, Principal Austin probably also contacted the alliance, and dragged the masked man whose strength far exceeded his own here.
If everything is as speculated, it's not incomprehensible that the masked man is now in a hurry to find trouble with Principal Austin. ”
Karp made such an inference for a moment, and then slowly stood up.
But just as he was about to start moving, he noticed that the earth began to tremble slightly, and the trembling amplitude increased with time.
Karp judged the direction of the voice for a moment, then leaned down and leaned against the wall behind him.
Where he is located is a very shallow branch cave.
Not far back is a rock wall, and the vibrations are transmitted from outside the cave entrance.
It's not the first time Karp has encountered such a situation.、But the last time he encountered this situation with him was Wataru.、And now it's only him.,Thinking of the way to deal with this situation last time.、Karp released the electric shock monster.。
"Shock monsters, carve out this wall in a place where I can stay."
With Karp's command, the electric shock monster quickly punched the rock wall in front of Karp, directly cutting out a small hole enough for Karp to hide in, and as Karp hid here, a team composed entirely of elves rushed out at the passage in front of the cave door.
Karp, who had seen an elven patrol once, peeked at him and frowned slowly.
If I have to say, this group of elves doesn't look like a simple patrol, but a bit like the scene when the monster forces finally rush over with all the elves.
Confirming this, Karp thought for a moment, and waited until the large rock snake at the back of the line, which was at least five times larger than usual, also wandered from the entrance of the cave, and then Karp slowly came to the position of the entrance of the cave, and looked at the back of the group of elves disappearing in the distance, and raised his eyebrows.
"Shock monsters, can you feel the fear from these elves?"
Karp asked about the shock monsters around him, and it wasn't too difficult for him to sense the emotions of other elves.
The shock monster felt it just as the elves passed, and now shook its head quite decisively when they heard Karp's inquiry.
Karp looked at the shock monster's reaction and laughed.
"If there is no fear, then it means that you have not been driven out by something
If Principal Austin locks off the island, the only people who can cause an accident in this cave are Kamen and Principal Austin.
And the elves weren't driven away, they looked like they were heading somewhere.
In this case, both the masked man and the principal of Austin should be in the direction where the elves are going. ”
Confirming this, Karp walked in the direction where the elves had come.
Although he also wants to see the situation now, Dean Austin is no opponent in the face of the masked man, and now his purpose is probably to drag the masked man, and he can't go over to trouble him.
So, the primary goal now is to avoid the masked man first.
Confirming his purpose, Karp took the shock monster and walked deeper into the cavern.
At this time, just as Karp had guessed, Austin and Kamen had contact in the first half of the cave.
However, the contact was only for a moment, and before Kamen could do anything, Austin let his elves blast open the canopy overhead with the destruction of deathlight, and although the falling rocks were shattered by Kamen Man's messenger bird, the cave itself was still smashed into a gap.
Behind the gap, the dark sky seemed to be mocking, and the snowflakes were falling from above, as if the snowflakes had been sucked away by the sky.
At this point, Austin vanished, and the masked man heard the movement behind him.
"Destroy the cave itself to attract the elves in the cave?"
The masked man muttered and pouted—and left with the messenger bird.
At this time, neither Austin nor Kamen knew that Karp had broken free from Kamen and taken a step into the depths of the cave.
Austin doesn't enter the cave without an accident, and the masked man follows him all the time, so he always goes around in circles in the first half of the cave.
Therefore, they may never be able to see what the inside of the cave is like while luring all the elves in the cave ** to the first half and fixing the battlefield on that side.
Karp, on the other hand, traveled deeper and soon came to the place where the huge rock serpent lived.
It's not unlike the elven settlements I've seen before, and the depths of this cave are also a clearing.
But unlike the clearings I've seen before, the location where the huge rock serpent lives is not a problem even if it is a vein.
The walls around the clearing were inlaid with purple crystals, and the black soil between the crystals and the crystals was also connected, and although Karp didn't know what these things were, when he entered the place, he could clearly feel that the Poké Ball containing the crystal rock serpent seemed to fluctuate slightly.
Sensing this, Karp directly released the Crystal Rock Snake, and then found that the Crystal Rock Snake bit the surrounding walls as soon as it came out.
The purple crystals on the black soil looked like the night sky had been crushed by the crystal serpent, and it ate these things directly.
First the first bite, then the second bite, then the third bite
Karp looked at the appearance of the crystal rock snake and raised his eyebrows, although he didn't know what these things meant to the big rock snake, but he only knew that his crystal rock snake was definitely not a foodie.
It didn't feel so excited when facing the Intermediate Energy Cube, so it looked like this thing was probably something useful to it.
Karp waited for a while with this thought, and then found that the body of the Crystal Rock Serpent seemed to be a little stronger than before, so the Shock Monster experimented and found that the Crystal Rock Snake's defensive ability had indeed grown to a certain extent.
Karp laughed when he got this result, and then asked the shock monster to look at the entrance of the cave with a domineering look, and he searched around.
As you can see, the walls around this place are all irregularly sunken shapes, and you can basically tell from the shape of the walls after the crystal snake bites it, and the space here is probably the space that the giant rock snake 'ate'.
After coming to this conclusion, Karp became more curious about his surroundings, but apart from the black soil and amethyst, Karp found nothing else.
Just as he was about to give up the exploration, the system's prompt rang in Karp's ears quite rarely.
Congratulations to the host for discovering the energy source and mining it?
