Collective Crossing Chapter Twenty-Nine: A New Mission
Li Yuan's movements suddenly stopped, and he looked at the hazy gray mist.
What was happening in front of him was so strange that he immediately remembered Merlin: "Merlin? ”
"Hmm!" A much more serious and familiar voice sounded in his head: "Go over and have a look!" ”
Li Yuan didn't answer, pushed the door open again, and went in.
At this time, Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin also noticed Li Yuan's abnormality and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Yuan didn't answer, but walked cautiously towards the thatched hut. Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin also followed behind him and entered the thatched hut again.
When they entered, they spotted a gray mist spreading in all directions on the altar.
"What's going on?" Lin Yinyin wondered.
"I don't know." Li Yuan shook his head and approached step by step.
"Try to touch it." In Avalon, Merlin put his hand against his chin and stared at the ground with a serious expression, there seemed to be a large mirror, and what appeared on the big mirror was exactly what Li Yuan was looking for.
"No problem?" Li Yuan asked tentatively.
"No problem, I'm here!" Merlin said lightly.
"Good!" Li Yuan agreed, and with the guarantee of this big guy, he was inexplicably relieved.
So, he quietly crouched down, stretched out his palm, and lightly touched the gray mist that spread from the ethereal air.
Suddenly, a cold and strange force seemed to penetrate his palm, causing it to stiffen, and then the force was about to penetrate his body. Li Yuan's heart was suddenly shocked, and his emotions fluctuated violently. A force rushed out of his heart, directly dispersing that power.
The palm of his hand seemed to flow through a warm current, and it recovered.
At the same time, as if sensing something, the force quickly retracted as if frightened, and burrowed back into the altar in the center of the hut.
"This ......" Li Yuan's eyes widened.
Does this gray fog have anything to do with the evolution of goblins? The thought crossed his mind.
It's no wonder that they feel like they're prepared to deal with this little goblin tribe today...... Li Yuan's brows furrowed, thinking about the details of dealing with this goblin tribe today.
They had dealt with the Goblin Shooter at the first time, and the whole process was clean and didn't cause much movement.
But the goblin mage reacted immediately, which means that it has not entered a deep sleep, and now that I think about it, it should be on guard against them.
So one of the main functions of this gray mist is to summarize what happened in the previous goblin tribes, and then use this as an experience to teach other goblin tribes? Li Yuan faintly guessed.
"Li Yuan, there are still traces of magic left here!" At this time, Lin Xiaoxin's voice pulled Li Yuan out of his thoughts.
Li Yuan took a closer look, on the altar, there was a faint gray light at this time, and as time passed, the light gradually dimmed.
"Look! The distribution of mana on the mana trail is biased to the southwest! Lin Yinyin screamed and shouted out her discovery.
"Hmm!" Lin Xiaoxin nodded thoughtfully.
"Southwest direction......" Li Yuan muttered, and glanced at Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin, both of whom saw shock in each other's eyes.
Combined with the wooden map inexplicably left by the goblin mage before, it is not difficult to guess the result - the southwest direction here hides secrets related to the altar!
If they were right, the secret was hidden in the cave!
Li Yuan also mentioned his previous speculation with Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin.
"Are we going to shift our focus to exploring the caverns next?" Lin Yinyin looked up and asked.
"Uh......" This is the question of Li Yuanyi.
Although he was also curious about what was going on in the cave, if he did it, it would be no problem to solve it...... But this kind of thing, no matter how you look at it, it's not easy, right?
Exploring the cavern was also a chore, it was pitch black, there was no limit to movement, and the monsters were a lot more headache to deal with than the goblins, and it was thankless.
If you wander around there for a day, you can get twenty units of energy sources today, and hunting goblin tribes, if nothing else, this wave alone already has twenty-six units of energy sources, and there are additional gains.
Together with the previous ten units, today they have thirty-six, an average of twelve units...... If it weren't for the time and effort of being held back by the caves, it is estimated that you will be able to deal with another goblin tribe. The abacus in Li Yuan's heart crackled.
With such a heavy debt pressure, it seems that the choice is not difficult.
"It's still ......," Li Yuan's words had just come out.
"Ahh In Avalon, Merlin's tone reverted to its previous jump, cheerful.
"What task?" Li Yuan asked with a drooping face.
Now he is so anxious about a task that Li Yuan is a little big when he hears this word now.
"That cave still needs to be explored, and this problem has to be solved, right?" Merlin spoke.
"That's true, but will this make my first mission a little more time-bound? This way I can also do a better job of investigating. Li Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"Aha!" Merlin let out a hearty laugh: "Of course it's ......"
When Li Yuan heard this laughter, his heart was slightly relieved.
"No way!"
"......" in an instant, Li Yuan's face stiffened, and now his only thought was to slap this guy in the face.
"Don't worry, the reward will be indispensable for completing the task!" Merlin saw that his face was gloomy, as if he had guessed something.
"It's not a matter of rewards, it's about how quickly it's possible to explore the cave with our current abilities?" Thinking of the roads in the cave in all directions, and thinking of the thorny and difficult monsters, Li Yuan immediately wanted to give up this task.
But the next moment, a thought popped into his mind...... Looking for a bunch of people?
…… No, no! But the next moment, this thought was dismissed by him.
Because the caverns are dark and the monsters shoot in strange ways, it is conceivable that many people will die there if they were to do so.
And to create such a situation, Li Yuan did not want to see, although here, there is no way to guarantee life, but if he does this, it is tantamount to saying that he indirectly caused the death of those people.
What's more, such a large group of people walking around is bound to alarm the goblin tribe.
If there are suitable people, then they must be at level 4 or above. It's best to have someone in the team who is an archer, and an Assassin is fine.
As for the re-absorption of members of the team...... Li Yuan thought about it and gave up this idea.
This method is feasible, but the main thing is that he is reluctant. To form the best exploration team, it is best to have all four major transfer routes in the team.
And the maximum number of people in a team is four. So if you really want to do that, you need to regroup the team.
But after such a long time of cooperation, he has a very tacit understanding with Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin, and while forming a team, he has also gained additional friendship.
Therefore, if it were to be separated from them and reorganize the team, Li Yuan would rather give up this task.
As for recruiting one more person to fill the team...... To be honest, Li Yuan still doesn't like it very much.
One is whether the newcomers can keep up with our pace, and there are definitely not many people who can reach level four now......
There is also a newcomer who doesn't know what kind of person he is, I have Merlin's secret, and others may not be like Lin Xiaoxin, who doesn't mind me hiding the truth from them...... In the end, Li Yuan still used this as an excuse to veto his idea.
"Merlin, is there a time limit for this mission?" Li Yuan asked.
"No, but the sooner the better, otherwise the goblin race will get smarter and evolve faster, and it will be absolutely devastating for those novice adventurers who have fallen a little bit before." Merlin replied:
"Of course, don't be too anxious, after all, there is a way to solve the problem no matter what."
"Well, I can inform Sisol's side at this point in a short time and let him bother...... There are slightly higher-level people to carry, and safety can also be guaranteed to a certain extent. Li Yuan made a decision in his heart:
"That cave is waiting for us to reach level 5 and get a new gear to explore again!"
"Good! Good luck! Merlin bowed slightly to Li Yuan.
The scene in front of Li Yuan's eyes turned into petals flying in the sky and disappeared.
"Let's take advantage of this time to go after we reach level five as soon as possible!" Li Yuan turned to Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin and said: "After the fifth level, with the new equipment, it will not be so difficult to explore, and it just so happens that we can also take advantage of the time to prepare some more strategic materials." ”
"Hmm!" Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin nodded, judging from the current situation, this should be the most suitable way.
After they had decided on it, they went back. It was winter, and the sun had already set at five o'clock, and the sky was getting dark.
However, they are not in a hurry, and with their strength, even if they encounter a group of goblins at night, they don't have to worry about anything.
Even if Lin Xiaoxin's magic power has not recovered.
- With her current strength and accuracy, she can kill those goblins in a few strokes even with a short staff. Of course, she wouldn't do it without special circumstances.
It's just that the surprise attack they expected didn't happen, although they met the goblin clan on the way, but they were attracted by the bonfires lit in the mountains, and Li Yuan and they avoided it after hiding a little.
In addition, on the way back, Li Yuan and the others also happened to run into Sisol and a large group of people who followed him, and chatted.
At this time, they were returning from hunting in another green slime hunting ground, and Sisol sent a magic bullet like a male peacock on a screen, excitedly revealing to Li Yuan that he had reached the third level of strong strength.
After Li Yuan congratulated him, he told him his previous plans in person.
As soon as Sisol heard this, he immediately became interested, and with the cooperation of the previous two days, Sisol had the idea of starting a mage union, and asked Li Yuan with great interest if he wanted to join.
…… I really don't know how you define a mage, and I don't just say mages...... Li Yuan secretly slandered. But it doesn't matter, as long as Sisol wants to do it.
Not to mention anything else, cultivating the level of the Mage Guild and then radiating other people is also a method that can be tried.
After talking about the matter, Li Yuan greeted the people he was slightly familiar with, and went back to Dom Town with Lin Xiaoxin and Lin Yinyin.
