Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Soldiers Are Divided into Two Paths

While Bloom was down, Alan walked around the ice room twice, and he always had the feeling in his heart that he seemed to be missing something important, but he still didn't find anything after walking around. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother Allen, what happened, didn't you see the dragon?"

Although the previous conversations of several people were carried out behind the little girl's back, she still heard a few words, and gradually realized the seriousness of the problem, and the only reason why these people appeared here was her eyes, so she had a great psychological burden.

"Yes, the time has not yet come, the dragon has not yet appeared, we need to wait a while. ”

Alan comforted that they were in a desperate situation and that Miranda could not be allowed to know that she was just a child, and that she had made her own decisions by coming here, and that no matter what happened, she should not feel guilty about it.

After more than an hour, Bloom and the others returned, and they searched down the two caves, but they found nothing, and there were no traces of the caves below** that could be related to the passage.

"Let's eat first, rest and rest, and when we wake up, we will continue to search down. ”

Alan said calmly.

"Alan, I have bad news for you. ”

After the meal, Elvis walked up to Alan and whispered in his ear.

"What's the news?"

Alan frowned, he really didn't want to hear more bad news right now.

"We don't have much food, and we can last up to half a month. ”

Elvis was the food manager for the operation, and only he knew the amount of food left.

"Don't tell anyone else about it. ”

Alan was silent for a moment, and now he finally understood how the corpses he had seen along the way had died, starved to death. If the dragons don't come and take their tribute within half a month, they will starve to death just like everyone else.

The resting position was in the passage close to the ice room, because the temperature in this position was higher than in the ice room, and the boxes could be monitored by standing near the entrance.

"This kind of passage, if you build it all the way to the top of the mountain, is a huge project, and I don't know who did it. ”

Elvis sat on the steps of the passage, looked at the entrance of the passage and said, there are steps that extend up, and the steps are very neatly arranged, which shows that they are not natural, but artificially excavated, but who has the ability to excavate such a huge project in a mountain peak in the harsh environment of the Cullen Mountains, it is a little strange to think about it.

"There are so many wonders on this continent that we can't fully unravel with what we know about the world at the moment. ”

Alan has been through a lot over the years, more than most people have experienced in a lifetime, but the more this happens, the more he feels his ignorance.

"Alan, do you think there really are gods in this world, and many unexplained existences are actually the handiwork of gods?"

"Perhaps, but I didn't think they existed until I saw them. ”

Alan remembered the history of the continent that the Elven King Kronis had told him, and if the legendary gods really existed, perhaps the best explanation for these great ruins.

"What's the use of saying that, even if there were gods, they wouldn't save us from this. ”

Bloom said with a wry smile.

"Ellen, the elven god will definitely protect us from safety. ”

Fresnel, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Yes, the elven god will definitely protect everyone. ”

Alan also smiled bitterly, although he had never believed in any gods, but the mention of gods at this time would at least comfort the hearts of the two elves. In fact, during the whole process today, the two elves behaved relatively calmly, unlike Allen, who suffered from gains and losses, nervousness and suffering, perhaps this is because they have God in their hearts.

Hearing Allen's answer, Fresnel smiled sweetly, looking at her beautiful face, Alan suddenly found that it is a good thing to have God in his heart, at least God can make people still have a glimmer of hope in the face of desperate situations, so that people will not suffer from despair, or even collapse.

"Alan, seriously, what are we going to do next?"

Elvis asked quietly by poking Allen.

"Wait! I'm sure the dragon will come and take this chest. ”

"It's not a good idea to wait, we don't have enough food, what if the dragon doesn't come before the food is consumed?"

"I understand, you've been searching for exits in the neighborhood for the past few days. ”

"Alan, I'd like to go down to the bottom entrance and have a look. ”

"You want to go back the way you came?"

"Yes, the mercenaries in the past couldn't get out, it doesn't mean that we can't get out either, I want to see if I can make a hole in the blocked intersection to get out. ”

Elvis thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with his own suggestion, although it was a stupid idea, but it did have a chance of success. However, his words made Alan hesitate, staying here to have a chance to meet the dragon, this is also the most important purpose of their visit, but they will risk their lives, go down to find a way out to fight for everyone's survival, but the risk also exists, no one knows if it will be able to successfully punch a hole out, after all, this is not the underground cave where the horse bandits' lair was located, the rock texture is extremely hard, and whether it can be successfully drilled out depends on luck.

"Well, let's split up in two ways, you and a few people go down, and I'll stay here and wait for the dragon to appear. ”

Although it was taboo to divide the soldiers into two ways in such a difficult situation, Alan decided to do so, and he really didn't want to give up this opportunity to meet the dragon.

"Alan, you stay, if the dragon comes, can you deal with it?"

Elvis asked after a moment's hesitation.

"As long as they don't come in groups, it shouldn't be a problem to cope. ”

Alan laughed.

"Well, we'll split up in two ways, if we haven't come back after you've finished your food, you go down to find us, and if we're out of food and haven't got through yet, we'll come up to you. ”

"Good!"

The two brothers quietly came to an agreement.

As soon as he woke up, Alan and Harvey told Bloom about their plans, although Bloom felt that it was very risky, but there was no better idea, so he and Elvis and Harvey returned to the hole blocked by the giant stone, and tried to make a passage, while the rest of the people continued to guard the box containing the tribute with Allen.

Elvis and the three left, Alan handed over most of the food to them, and only left a small part for himself, because Elvis they had to go down the mountain, and then there was a possibility of going up the mountain, and the three of them had a relatively large amount of food, leaving Alan and the five of them, and the two elves had their own vegetarian food, Alan and the little girl's food was relatively small, and they didn't need strenuous exercise, so a small part of the food was enough. In addition, Alan also gave Elvis the twin grass in his hand, which will be a tool for them to find each other in the event of any unexpected change.
