Chapter Forty-Nine: Here They Come
In a bedroom in the Falling Dust Manor, a girl who could only sleep on her stomach was pouting her ass, trying to raise her little head, blinking a pair of big watery eyes, staring at the wooden bowl in the hand of a snake girl not far in front of her, with a look of anticipation, almost without a little tail wagging around on her buttocks.
Si Qin was picking up a bowl of beef ganba with chopsticks, and when he saw the little face not far away, he felt that his good appetite just now was gone, and he handed over the chopsticks with his eyes closed, repeating what he didn't know how many times he said, "This is the last slice, don't stare at me after eating!" ”
The girl's eyes immediately focused on the chopsticks handed over, and she screamed angrily in her heart, a tiger shook its head, bit the cow's dry mouth, stirred it a few times quickly, swallowed it with a bang, and then returned to looking at Si Qin with a panning expression~
The other patient on the bed next to him quickly made a "I don't know this stupid" expression and turned away.
Damn, I hate guarding the house the most, Si Qin quietly rolled her eyes, and thought viciously......
……
"Bray, those kobolds found Bray, just by the small river 700 steps away from the camp, to be exact, only half of Bray was found, damn, what did he encounter, the other half of his body was gnawed off, what the hell is in this place, so he doesn't even have time to call for help, oh, poor Bray, he is already the fourth, there are fewer and fewer of us, I already feel the resistance in the eyes of those kobold slaves, and the inexplicable fear~"
Lin Ze looked at a tattered diary next to the bones, this was a streamside camp not far from those buildings, tattered animal skins and rusty iron cages, plus those empty big wooden barrels, tired white bones, if it weren't for Sina's sharp eyes, Lin Ze and they wouldn't have found the abandoned camp on the other side of the stream, Lin Ze continued to look through this diary that seemed to have been torn up a lot by something.
"There is not much food left, and early this morning Joey and a few kobolds went down the river in search of something to eat, and they didn't come back until it was completely dark outside that skylight, and the whole camp was filled with fear and unease, all this damn ruins, and those damn materials, stupid Nords! What bullshit is the way of the land, what the remains of the hell are simply a lie! The excitement of discovering the ruins of the Moon Elves here has long passed, more than ten days have passed, and we are running out of supplies, and there are those damn kobolds who have to consume food every day, and if it weren't for the need for labor to find the gate of the ruins, those guys would have been killed long ago. ”
"Fifteen days, we've been here for fifteen days, today Raot went out with the kobold and never came back, I don't even know if he ran away or died, that cowardly fellow, our original partners are now left with me and Chikame, and in the afternoon another kobold died, these damn idiots, I told them not to touch those weird patterns on the walls of the ruins, and it turned out that there was another idiot who was baked to ashes, this damn ruins, the walls were full of mechanisms, Chikame persuaded me, go back and get ready to come back next time, damn it, this is the Moon Elf Ruins, a complete and still working Moon Elf Ruins, worth more than discovering the graves of a thousand Nord Savages, right away, I can feel it, we are about to find a way to get in! ”
Lin Ze flipped through the relatively complete pages of records, intending to roughly understand the origin of these remains, and he picked up the last piece of diary paper with handwriting:
"Oh! No! Here they are! No~No! ”
What are they? Lin Ze's vigilance was raised, what did this short line of words say?
"They? It's probably some underground monsters", Leia stood beside Lin Ze and also read the diary together, "There are many creatures underground, most of them are extremely evil guys, of course, there are also those dark elves who have been banished, or gray dwarves, as well as demons, undead and the like, but I have never heard of an underground dungeon near the Flower Language Forest." ”
Lin Ze put down the diary and looked at all these bones carefully, and there were some tooth marks left on the bones, not like intelligent life, according to his understanding, even murderous demons would not use humans and kobolds as food, they should be some dark creatures.
"Whatever it is, let's be careful, go to the ruins first, and be careful not to touch anything unfamiliar!" Lin Ze took the lead and walked towards the ruins.
"This should be the gate, only the patterns on the wall here are very concentrated", Leia pointed to a section of the wall that is slightly different from the surroundings, in this Moon Elf ruin complex, there is no particularly obvious place that indicates that it is the gate, even the wall found now, there is no such thing as a door crack, the whole wall is smooth as a mirror, "You see, this is the text of the Moon Elf." ”
"Falling Spring Eternal Fortress, Aniwen's Fifth Patrol Brigade, say the order, enter", Irel translated directly to Lin Ze, "It's El text." ”
This gate is no different from other places except for a little more pattern, combined with the broken diary, Lin Ze doesn't think it's a good idea to go up and open the door or something, especially since more than one charred skeleton has been found under the wall.
"Over here, there's a collapsed wall!" Just as Lin Ze was thinking about how to get in, Sina shouted.
How can it be? If there had been such a wall, then I wouldn't have seen the diary, could it be that there were other adventurers behind the guy who wrote the diary? Lin Ze had a bad premonition in his heart.
Just next to the walls of the wall and the cave, an obvious collapse appeared on the wall, accompanied by all kinds of charred remains, what kind of creature is this, Lin Ze's bad premonition in his heart became even stronger, and Leia also stood in front of the pile of remains and pondered.
"It's kind of like a goblin, but taller than a goblin, and shorter than a dwarf, isn't it, a cave demon?" Leia's face was heavy.
"Cave Demon?" Lin Ze had never heard of this kind of thing, and he hadn't even heard anyone else say what this kind of thing was.
"I also heard that there is a very cruel and bloodthirsty humanoid creature in the underground of the Cloud Mountain World, which is said to have been tortured and evolved from the Nords, but the Nords are generally taller than the Templars, so it is estimated that it is a rumor, this kind of cave demon lives in the dark, can easily set traps, hunt all kinds of creatures they can see, and even the same kind of different races, they speak a very harsh-sounding language, originally I thought these were legends", Leia said in detail.
"We have to be more careful, let's go and have a look first~" Lin Ze said cautiously.
