Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Underground River

Marina nodded, "Of course, I'm not going to force you to do extra work...... And you're not going to obey, are you?"

"Yes, if you go deeper, further down, I will respect your choice and decision, but I will turn back and get out of here immediately. Shortaxe replied, "With the money you gave me, I can only go somewhere in the middle level, and we only have the ability to go to such a place." If we go further, I'm afraid you and I won't have any good fruit to eat. ”

At the entrance to the middle level, Marina and Shortaxe reconfirmed what they had agreed with each other. Then, the team moved on. The road in the middle is even more dilapidated than the top, and stepping on it is like stepping on a muddy dirt, and there is a disgusting crackling sound under your feet, and you don't know what has become of the soles of your shoes. Maybe it's a mess of mud, or something more disgusting, but no one does the cleaning here, and the people here probably don't care about hygiene.

The firelight followed Chris, moving slowly. Chris tightened his cloak, silently walking in the darkness so that he could not even see his shadow. Then Mr. Little Cloak stopped and shouted behind him, "There's a dead man." ”

Very simple and straightforward, there is a dead man.

This made the team listen, and both Eko and Marina frowned, "Dead man?"

Chris didn't respond, and there was some movement on his side, which sounded like a heavy object was being flipped.

Eko looked back at the short axe at the rear. Shortaxe's face didn't change, just shrugged, "I said this isn't the place to go outing. If in shallow waters, it is foolish to die at the hands of tiny fangs, in the middle level, death is commonplace. ”

That being said, the dagget walked over to Chris. Several of them came to Chris's side, only to see Chris crouching down near the wall, which was overgrown with weeds and the surface of the wall was peeling off, but thankfully there was no daunting scarlet grass nearby. Among the weeds in front of Chris, there was indeed a dead man. The dead man could no longer see his original appearance, and had become a white skeleton. White Bone still had clothes and protective leather armor on his body, and he still held a broken sword in his hand, lying on the weeds, as if he was temporarily resting.

"Strange. "We're certainly not the only ones coming down from this side lately. Will you be the first to discover it?" asked Chris.

Chris's hand groped for the bones, "I still have belongings on my body, but I haven't heard of anyone dying underneath." He reached over and tore the white bone's hands off with all his might, tossing them aside, "It could be a skeleton, and the things on it were too old." ”

"That makes sense. Shortaxe touched his chin, thinking about something, "This is not their range of motion, why?"

Watching Chris's actions, Marina, who heard the words of the short axe, probably understood what was going on, and she asked, "There are undead in this area?"

"Yes, but they're all skeletons, and they shouldn't be around here. "It could be that some frightened newcomer was lured in by the fledgling and then knocked down here." ”

"It can't get up again. "At least temporarily." He stood up and continued into the darkness, leaving the skeleton with its bones removed. The others followed Chris, and Marina glanced down as she passed the skeleton, and there was nothing in her dark eyes, but stared straight at the people who walked past him, as if she were saying something wordlessly.

"Is there a habitat for the undead around here?" Marina knew very well that when something like an undead, especially a skeleton, saw one, there might be a second, third, or even more.

"This one is pretty good. "At least it could tell it was once a human." As long as it is a creature that once had bones, it can become a moving bone shelf. Skeletons turned into small fangs are much trickier than human skeletons...... The same is true for the little fangs, the necromancers are not of the same race. ”

The team walked forward for a while, and finally left the passage, where nothing had changed. The exit slopes downward, and the slope is slippery, so if you are not careful, you may slip and fall to the ground. The ground is dark green moss, moistened by the liquid dripping from above, and it grows everywhere. At the exit, everyone could hear the clear sound of flowing water, which sounded like the sound of a river. When they left the exit ramp, they came to a new area.

The place is bigger than the passage and there is a river in the middle. If it's a gutter, it's a bit too wide. Although the water does not seem to be deep, it is difficult to think that this is just a ditch and not a small river. There are walkable passages on both sides of the river, the two lanes are a little far apart, and there are no bridges between them, and if you take one of the passageways, you may have to go back to the beginning or the end of the aisle to get to the other end.

"There's a place like this underground. Marina was a little surprised. Although he was a local resident, he had never been to such a place, and he had the same expression. Luluna was behind Marina, looking around like a nervous child in a strange place.

"Watch out for danger around, but Chris has already scouted it, and if there is any danger, he probably won't let us walk in like this. Hatchet said in the back, occasionally looking back a few times to see if there was anything unusual around, "Don't fall into that river, or you'll be fine." ”

They stood on the edge of this strange underground river, the black water rippling slightly, not like stagnant water, as if something was swimming in it.

Lulunaka leaned on the side and poked her head out to look down, "There's something down there." ”

Seeing Lulunaka's appearance, Hatchet shouted, "Don't approach the underground river like that!"

Lulunaka is startled by the hatchet, and something jumps out from beneath the water. With a reminder from the dastard, she dodged the thing that flew out of the water. The thing flew out of the water and landed beside Lulunaka.

It was a fish with several rows of fangs, and it was small, and the circle of teeth was larger than its body.
