Chapter 119 Tracking
Arthur turned his head, looked at his team, looked at the tragic scene in front of him, the little maid Daji had already turned pale with fright, but surprisingly she didn't cry, just bit her lip, the little girl was very strong, after all, she was a person from the Lorain world, no matter how cute and innocent she was, it was impossible not to face death, unlike the pampered beauties he had seen in his previous life.
Groot, on the other hand, still didn't care, as for what happened to the dead and what difference made in his eyes.
And the soldiers on the scene, all of whom were full of anger, all looked at him, waiting for his orders.
"What do you think?"
He asked Rambo.
"These people are brutal, we have to be careful."
Rambo said.
"There are not many people in the principality who dare to go against the mentor so blatantly. Where exactly did the enemy come from? ”
Arthur nodded in agreement.
As disciples of Mentor Victor, they were perhaps the terrible people who knew their mentor best. It can be said to be unfathomable, like a high mountain, like an ocean, the longer you follow him to learn, the more you can realize his strength.
And now the enemy they are facing is very likely to be aimed at the hands of the secret realm, which is almost equivalent to challenging Victor head-on, there is not enough reason for no one to dare to do this.
Who the hell is it?
Are those stale and old-fashioned nobles of the principality? He had heard of the contradictions between the guru and these people.
But what is in front of you doesn't look like their style.
The aristocracy has the taste of the aristocracy, and these in front of them are too rough and too ferocious.
Arthur opened the Phantom Crystal with a serious face, connected with Mentor Victor, and passed the picture here to him.
Victor frowned and thought for a while, then said:
"Keep searching, anyway, find the goods first. Watch out for the traps, I'll watch you guys. ”
Turn off the communication and check the time, it's almost noon.
Why don't you eat first?
"No, master, I can't eat it."
Daji was the first to object.
Ask Rambo next.
"It's still early, let's go again."
Rambo hesitated for a moment and said.
Arthur nodded, in fact, he himself did not insist on eating here, how could he eat on this occasion? It's better to start early, maybe the enemy hasn't run far?
"Master Arthur, what's next?"
Guka, the captain sent by Carrick, asked him.
"Maybe we need to go back and find a master tracker, I don't have anyone like that on my team."
Arthur glanced at him, are you kidding? I'm a mage.
He took out a magic scroll from the ring, summoned a monster, and the magic power was activated, and the scroll turned into brilliance and disappeared, and a hellhound appeared in front of him.
But it's not the famous three-headed dog, but its close relative, the Underworld Dog, the size of a calf, and the body is much more slender, like a taller cheetah, taking a high-speed and agile route.
As soon as the underworld dog landed, it turned its head to look at its master, with blue-black skin, with a cold aura unique to the creatures of the underworld, a pair of eyes shining with blue-green light, and a long pointed snout spreading, revealing the flipped and twisted teeth in the mouth, with an unkind expression.
The corners of Arthur's mouth twitched, these summons from the underworld were either stupid or lazy, and he threw a strip of meat at the underworld dog.
As soon as the dog of the underworld saw the fresh meat, it turned from a fierce beast to a cute thing in a blink of an eye, and even the howling sound became soft and cute, and he ate the meat in two bites, and his eyes suddenly communicated a lot, and for these underworld creatures, the food of the main material world is always very attractive.
Arthur cast a first-level spell on himself to understand the language, and then chattered and exchanged a few words with the dog, after the conversation, the dog understood the meaning, barked twice, and bargained with Arthur a few words, and then lowered his head to sniff the smell left on the ground, and began to lead the way.
Worthy of the mage, the mercenary warriors looked at Arthur with respect on their faces, this is why the spellcaster will always be the core of a team, they will always have the means to solve all kinds of problems like this, they hurriedly followed.
A group walks in the wilderness. In fact, these people travel much faster than ordinary people, and in a few hours they have covered the equivalent of what an ordinary person walks in days.
An hour later, the group followed the dog into a canyon, Rambo saw his surroundings, frowned, he went to Arthur and said:
"Senior brother, something is wrong. The road leads towards Zuan, and if I'm not mistaken, in front of it is an old mine pit in Zuan. ”
"Zuan!"
Arthur thought to himself that this incident was really related to some people in Zaun.
The next thing was really said by Rambo, and following the underworld dog who led the way, everyone soon came to the mouth of an abandoned mine pit. The entrance to the cave is so tall that even Groot can easily pass through it, which shows how hot the pit was back then.
Those murderers hid the stolen goods here?
It's not impossible.
There are many mines like this near Zaun, and after they were abandoned, not many people came, and even Rambo only had a vague impression of this mine, but he didn't have a deep memory.
Arthur looked at the dark and deep hole, whined, and exchanged a few words with Cerberus. Everyone decided to eat at the entrance of the cave first, and then continue to track.
A group of people who are familiar with the life in the wild, eating is very simple, everyone is full of hands, lighting a fire, taking out the dry and hard meat strips in their pockets, and baking them on the fire, the hot fire snake is roasting the barbecue, the oil dripping on the barbecue is dripping down little by little, and the fragrance is fragrant, and the cold and fatigue on everyone's body are all removed.
The little maid diligently took out a small box of spices and spread it evenly on the barbecue, making everyone salivate and even feel much better.
Is it still useful for this little maid to take with her, Arthur thought.
"When you were a kid, you lived in this?"
Arthur asked Rambo while eating Daji's roasted meat,
Rambo raised his head and looked at the deep hole of the mine, as if remembering something,
"It's not this, but it's all about the same, all the pits, it's the same,"
A unique sense of vicissitudes emanated from his body, and there seemed to be too many memories hidden in that small body.
"The prosperity of Zaun and Piltover was supported by these pits." He said. "The work of the miners under the pit has become the nourishment for the growth of the city. Every gold coin circulating in the Zaun and Piltover markets contains the lives and blood of the miners. ”
"At that time, there were thousands of people in every pit, goblins, kobolds, yodelers, every race, who lived in the pit all day and night, and did not see the light of day, and the miners toiled hard under the whips of the overseers, digging ore out of the mines, smelting them into steel, glass, and all kinds of alchemical products, fattening the hateful alchemy barons, and getting food for themselves, and many of them lived in the pits all their lives, including me."
"Zaun is like that, and it hasn't changed much now. The pit is the characteristic of Zu'an, it is the place where the miners work and live, but it is also the grave where the miners are buried, people die in it all the time, poisonous insects, waste water and the bodies of abandoned miners, everywhere, sometimes the pit collapses, and the people of the entire tunnel will die in it...... Some of the pits even go deep underground, where it's a maze and full of monsters. ”
"Monsters?"
Arthur seemed surprised,
"What monster?"
Even Rambo, there seemed to be fear in his little eyes at this time,
"That's a monster, a monster hidden in the deepest part of the Zu'an Underground!"
Fear seemed to take hold of him.
Are you so afraid? What kind of monster is it, Mondo, Zack, or who is it, Arthur flipped the folds in his brain, looking through these memories that seemed a little rusty, but Rambo did not continue, it can be seen that the images of these monsters have penetrated into Rambo's childhood mind, like a symbol of fear in memory, which has gone beyond the meaning of concrete reality and has become an abstract symbol.
It's like fear itself!
Poor Rambo.
So he didn't continue to ask, he turned around and looked at the mouth of the tall and deep pit not far behind him, wait, this time the enemy, no matter what you are and what your purpose is, I am coming.
