"Everyone's fine, right?"

Francon's side summoned a dark flame that emitted a faint blue light, illuminating them all around them.

Claude had a palpitating expression on his face, and Nero, who had finished coughing dryly, screamed directly.

"Can you squeak first when you do this kind of thing in the future!"

On the contrary, the four little ones looked indifferent, as if they had adapted to this sudden upheaval.

"Before we quarrel, I think we have something we should be more concerned about, right?"

Kamiu's warning brought Nero back to his senses and looked at the soles of his feet again.

Beneath their feet were fine scales, and their cylindrical bodies snaked forward like mountains, extending into darkness beyond the reach of fire.

It seems that they should be on a giant python.

"Anyway, isn't the use of luminous magic in such a dark place to point the enemy to where we are?" Then Nero complained.

"Anyway, the other party should have already discovered us when we passed through the Water Barrier, and compared to the enemy who lives in the dark all year round, it will be bad for us if we don't guarantee our vision. Moreover, I guess the goal of our trip should be in the hands of the other party, so wouldn't it be easier to wait for it to be delivered by itself than if we went to find it? ”

Franken explained to Nero.

"Isn't it too risky to do this for the sake of an uncertain guess?" Nero still didn't look relieved.

As a cardinal, not a gambler, he has acted in a prudent manner.

In his opinion, the strength here is unknown. But at least after the enemies that seem to be difficult to get along, what you should do is to leave here first, then go to the Sanctuary, and at worst, go to the nearby church to find a helper and then solve it all at once.

"It's no longer speculation." Franconian took out a jade plate from his bosom, and the color of the poison crystal on it changed violently: "The source of the plague is rapidly approaching us. ”

As if to verify what he had said, the next moment, the snake-like bodies under their feet suddenly began to rise and fall violently.

Claude fell on it twice and almost fell off the snake, but he was able to hold on to the scaly ground so that he was not thrown out. The four little ones were very clever and half-squatted on the ground, lowering their body center of gravity. It didn't happen like Claude.

Francony and Nero are skeleton mages with a lot of simple but practical magic engraved on their bones, such as featherfall and levitation. One was a knight who had trained in the Knights Templar and had a good record in actual combat, and when faced with this situation, his strength was immediately reflected by being a large cut above the other five, and he was still standing firmly on the snake that began to coil up.

But they didn't show the slightest lightheartedness. Instead, he watched vigilantly at the darkness not far away.

Although it is not real. But in that darkness. Something huge raised its head.

The air also became damp, and there was a constant smell of unbearable water.

As the number of Hellfires increased, the range of the light shrouded finally touched that thing.

It was a half-human, half-snake creature. It resembles the naga that is occasionally found along the coast, but with only two arms.

However, in addition to its size, there is one thing that makes this creature most different from Naga - its lower body is not a snake tail, but an octopus-like one, with eight large colorful snake tails extending out of its surroundings.

Its body appears to be badly decayed, and in many places you can even see exposed muscle fibers.

On its forehead, it was a ball, the size of a basketball, emitting an unpleasant fluorescent-green mist.

Got it!

Franken and Nero had such thoughts in their minds at the same time.

Immediately, Franconian pinched the jade plate in his hand into powder.

A halo of light popped out from beneath his feet and in all directions, forming a milky white mask on the others as it touched them.

"Enchantment?" Nero, who majored in this kind of thing, immediately recognized the essence of this mask on his body.

"The corrosive effect of the source of the plague is terrifying, so it's better for you to have a little more protection."

Francon's two magic eyes were already staring at the upper body of the creature at the same time, and his attention was also highly concentrated, but he casually explained to Nero: "Of course, this thing has another effect......"

Before Nero could ask, a voice interrupted their conversation.

It was the sound of the huge enemy in front of them, uttered word by word in jerky Hughmon language, which made people's eardrums buzz.

"Poor dinner, welcome to the cave of the Coiled Wise."

- Outer Periphery of the Sanctuary -

Sivi sat on the hairless Swift Falcon, examining the angelic aura he had just acquired.

Interestingly, this thing was actually recognized by the system as equipment, and it was also a Gundam treasure-level equipment - there are not many equipment of this level even in the academy system.

It's just that except for the basic 'Magic Defense +233' and 'Divine Magic Damage Reduction', other attributes are not visible. It's useless to shoot a few intermediate identification crystals, and it looks like you'll have to identify crystals at an advanced level.

It's just that the only high-level identification crystal that Xiwei had in his hand happened to be used up when he was appraising the attributes of the equipment from the copy two days ago......

In the end, he could only regretfully put the aura back into the storage box, and at the same time modify the plan of the dungeon at night, and make a special trip to the dungeon that was easy to drop the identification crystal.

Although he has already taken over the matter entrusted by Eliria, since he has no clue yet, he does not plan to change his itinerary in the future.

"Now we're going to the capital of Lyrian." He patted the falcon on the back and gave it a simple command: "Don't worry, just fly slowly this time." ”

Now that the White Church had promised to send scouts to the Angola Mountains, the purpose of the trip had been achieved. There was no need for the Mage Guild and the King's Council to go there, so Sivi planned to make a trip to Julien's palace to consult with Her Majesty the Empress and bring Evanterine back to Edric.

The most important thing is to go to the Angola Mountains to confirm where the orcs are going to start.

At this moment, the purple gem on one of the brooches that Sivi wore on the outside of the mage's robe suddenly burst open, leaving only a faint mark.

"Is something wrong with Franconia?" Sivi immediately made a decision and re-ordered the Swift Falcon: "Target, Morag! ”

"Tweet ——!"

The swift falcon, which had a heart-to-heart with its master, immediately let out a clear eagle roar that resounded through the sky, indicating that it understood.

"I'm sorry to make you lose your hair again."

"Gah?!" (To be continued......)
