The big bug's body is tough and very flexible, and when it hears the command, it curls up its upper body and flies forward like a suppressed spring.

"Smack."

Its slime-laden head slung beneath the cavern.

"Thick!"

The bug made an inexplicable cry from its mouth, shook its fat body, and built a bridge between the small tree where the three of them were and the mouth of the cave.

"Although rest assured, Kodo's body is very strong, and the last time he fought with the giant ape, he was not torn off, but he entangled the other party to death; It's definitely no problem to support the weight of our three ladies. ”

Evelyn stepped on the insect twice with her foot, this white-green insect back is like a soft meat pad, and there is no disgusting stinger like a caterpillar, and in order to cooperate with the owner's walking, the big insect also specially dented its back, and it is almost impossible to see the scene below the cliff when walking on it, which is very reassuring.

"Let's come one by one."

However, for the sake of safety, Evelyn took the safest approach.

She took the magic staff in her hand, carefully bent her waist, and it took a full half a minute to cover the short distance of a few meters.

"It's so dark inside, you can't see anything."

She grabbed the top of the insect's head and looked inside for a long time, and all she could see was a black patch, but the fragrance was getting stronger.

"There doesn't seem to be any danger - come on."

Evelyn didn't dare to shout, but made a safe gesture to the two behind her, signaling them to follow quietly.

"Whew-" When they all reached their destination, the big insect tightened its body and curled up in front of the hole.

"This platform can shine in the sun."

When Dolinda came here, she felt the warmth behind her and looked back to see a round of sunset.

The red sunset sprinkled on the three of them. The shadow elongated over time, reaching into the dead cavern.

Located on the edge of the decaying earth, with a gloomy sky and purple-black clouds on one side and sunlight on the other, this cave is the last area the sun can reach.

"Hmph, this place must not be found by the old thing. We should give it a name. ”

Evelyn crossed her waist and said:

"How about calling it the Hongxia Cave? If there's a lot of food in there, this is where the saga of the three of us in the New World begins! ”

"It's so cold in this hole."

Dolinda carefully walked into the cave with the branch she had just removed, and when her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she found that the cave was very deep, dark and endless, and a cold wind kept blowing out of it, she only walked a few steps before she felt panicked, and immediately stopped.

"Kodo is too large for reconnaissance."

Evelyn put away her staff and drew a magic symbol with her fingers.

"Squeak!"

A tiny gray rat falls out of the Void Circle. landed at her feet.

"Ahh Old-"

Dolinda screamed, but then she felt that something was wrong and hurriedly covered her mouth.

"Don't come, go, go!"

She chased the mouse with her hands, and kept it from coming near her.

"Ramie is cute, how can you be afraid of being like this."

Evelyn grabbed the dazed mouse from the ground and touched its little head affectionately. Strange question:

Dolinda ...... I've always thought you're a little timid...... Even if you're afraid of the undead and monsters, why are you afraid of rats? ”

"Who. Who said I was scared? ”

Dolinda's mouth is so hard that:

"Rats are very dirty things, and you actually hold them in your hands! You're not allowed to touch my body anymore! ”

She clutched her chest vigilantly, as if the other party was about to catch her in the next moment.

"Nonsense, Rami isn't a dirty rat, he bathes at least three times a day when he's with me."

Evelyn puffed up and said:

"Besides, it's evolved, so it's not going to eat scraps and leftovers at all......"

"Alright, alright. Don't talk about this rat anymore, my cold hairs are standing on end. ”

Dolinda touched her arm and said in disgust:

"What are you calling it out for? Let it be a scout. ”

"Don't ...... Speak! ”

Zero on the side suddenly whispered.

The two little princesses immediately fell silent.

Zero is a very reliable partner, and his perception is more sensitive than the two of them, so such an impolite interruption of the conversation must have revealed something.

"Inside. There are unusual ...... Movement. ”

Cat Zero walked over to Evelyn and Dolinda, pulled their bodies down, and pressed them against the rock wall one by one.

"Is there a monster here?"

Seeing her so cautious, Dolinda also became nervous.

"Quite possibly."

Evelyn lowered her voice and said:

"Haven't you heard of a carnivorous plant? They are huge, like to inhabit caves and some shady places, and often emit an enticing fragrance to lure prey to the bait, if one is accidentally caught by them......"

She stretched out a hand and pecked it on her other hand like a chicken, and her voice became eerie:

"You'll be bitten through the head all at once!"

"How do I remember being caught and melted away?"

Dolinda frowned and said:

"Are you mistaken?"

"Ahem...... In short, we need to pay attention! ”

Evelyn withdrew her hand and said with a little embarrassment:

"Send Rami in to investigate first, and don't make any more noises during this time, otherwise in this kind of place where everything is unknown, I don't know what terrible things will be alarmed."

“…… Got it. ”

Dolinda thought of the exclamation she had just made, and her momentum suddenly weakened by half, and she replied in frustration.

"Rammy, good."

Zero was obviously not the first time he had seen this little mouse, so he squatted down and touched its smooth back hair: "It's hard work." ”

"-Go!"

Evelyn gave instructions to Lamy.

The little mouse "poofed" out at once, and the speed was amazing.

It first came to the direction where the fragrance was strongest, straightened up and sniffed the air, and soon disappeared from the sight of the three of them.

"There is a fork in the road."

Evelyn gestured.

"What a strange cave. There is neither water nor animals capable of burrowing, how did it come to be? ”

Dorinda's knowledge of geography is a little poor, she usually doesn't care about this kind of thing at all, and there is no need for the princess of the imperial empire to live in the wild, only the princes will go hunting and honing.

"Strong winds that endure all year round, special mountain structure. There is also rain erosion. ”

Evelyn answered her question simply:

"But it doesn't seem like the same here...... Look at the marks on the rocks. ”

She gestured to the rock wall behind them:

"It's not like it's been eroded, it's not like it's been blown into this form by a strong wind, it's a bit like it was dug up by something."

"Once upon a time, this was supposed to be the lair of some powerful monster."

She looked around and came to a conclusion:

"But that thing should have left a long time ago, after all, monsters don't like the smell of decay, this mountain peak is being invaded by the aura of darkness, if it weren't for the undead creatures, they shouldn't be able to stand the environment here."

"And what's the deal with this nice smell?"

Dolinda rubbed her nose unconvinced:

"I've never heard of undead people who like to grow flowers or keep bees."

The two of them argued in a low voice here, not long after. The little mouse Rami returned to them from the depths of the cave.

"Squeak!"

It placed a fat leaf on the ground and shook its body, giving off a rich floral fragrance.

"It's really a plant."

Dolinda looked ugly and pounded the leaf with a twig:

"It smells good, but do you really dare to eat this kind of thing? Inside...... It's not toxic. ”

"It's hard to say."

Evelyn pulled out her staff, and a white glow of magic flashed, and the light at the entrance to the cave was quickly blocked.

The huge insect-shaped monster Kodo crawled in from the outside, staring at the blades on the ground at a glance.

It had long smelled the aroma of the cave, but it was unable to move freely due to the standby orders issued by its owner. So there was no follow-up.

"Kodo is a very poisonous monster, just let it try it. We'll know if it's food or not. ”

Evelyn took the branch from Dolinda's hand, picked up the leaf, and put it in the worm's mouth.

"Whew...... Whoop......"

The big bug swallowed the leaves.

Then lie on the ground for a while as instructed by the master, waiting for the leaves inside to digest.

After about half an hour, it shook its head very humanely, meaning that the thing was not dangerous. You can eat it.

"Lamy, lead the way!"

The three of them, who had been dazzled by the scent, were overjoyed and ran inside with the little mouse.

After moving inside for some distance, a hint of warmth began to fill the cold air.

Sure enough, there was something inside, but Rami said that the place was not aware of the danger...... It should be fine, right? ”

Evelyn thought as she touched her deflated stomach.

She wasn't careless. Pulling the fastest Zero behind him, and then protecting Dolinda as well, he walked in front of the three of them with his staff in his hand, looking at the thick darkness in front of him, and his palms were covered with sweat.

“！！”

After a while, something suddenly slashed across her head.

Evelyn took three steps back in fright, crashing into Dolinda and Zero, nearly knocking them to the ground.

"Shh

She made a silent gesture at the two of them.

Then he tried to pound what he had just touched with his short cane, and found that it was a wide leaf.

"What the hell?"

Dolinda spotted the leaf as well, and grumbled and poked her, right on Evelyn's flat chest.

"Much smaller than mine, hehe."

She was secretly proud in her heart.

"Rami is too short to spot anything high."

Frightened, Evelyn didn't pay attention to the other party's behavior, took a few breaths, and then came back to the front, avoiding the leaf and cautiously walking deeper.

"This thing...... It's not tasty. ”

Zero tried to open his mouth and bit down a piece of the leaf, and after a few bites, he said, "Phew! He spit it out.

As they go deeper. The plants in the cave gradually increased.

According to common sense, plants should not be green in such a place where there is no sunlight, but after walking for a while, some small fluorescent balls suddenly appeared in the air, and a faint light began to appear around them, reflecting a lush grove of dark green trees.

"What is this thing?"

Dolinda curiously tapped a twig on one of the balls.

After being subjected to an external force. The little ball shattered like a blister.

The whole process of fragmentation was quiet, without making a single sound, and a beautiful point of light bloomed silently, scattered on the uneven ground, and finally slowly disappeared in the darkness.

Evelyn also grabbed a ball of light, held it in her hand and observed it for a long time, and then let it go again.

"It's kind of like a collection of energy, but there's no magic in it, and it's impossible to speculate about the reason for its formation."

Look at the ball of light that flies away slowly. A wave of unease welled up in her heart.

"It's ...... Is there an unknown monster hidden? Not even the little mice were found. ”

Dolinda felt a little frightened when she saw her standing there silently, leaned over and grabbed her hand, forgetting the words she had said before, "Don't touch me casually."

"It's a living creature, but I don't know if it's a threat to us."

Evelyn hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Do you keep going, or do you find a way to collect some food and go back?

"If it's Sister Xia...... What will she do now? ”

Her mind crossed over the image of the silver-haired girl.

"--She'll muster up the courage to keep exploring, right?" Someone's image is infinitely magnified in the little princess's heart. Evelynn felt like she was full of fighting spirit.

"If it looks like now, the old thing might have been here too."

She turned to Zero and Dolinda and said:

"If there was anything dangerous, he should have cleared it long ago. How can you allow a powerful monster to hide beneath your dwelling? Plus Rami didn't warn me just now, so this place should be safe. ”

She twisted her head back, her heart crossed, and she uttered a short incantation.

The tip of her wand glowed like the orbs, illuminating the path beneath her feet, and she raised her scepter and led the way forward.

"How do you feel that her momentum is different all of a sudden?"

Dorinda wondered:

"Are you faint from hunger?"

The three of them began to walk forward again. But hundreds of meters away, all the plants were densely packed together, and the cave access was completely blocked.

It's like a myriad of huge plants filling the entrance, and every leaf on their body is trying to squeeze in first.

"Hehe, who said that if you don't grow big, it's not good?"

Evelyn and Zero are both petite types. Began to play to his strengths, constantly drilling through the cracks of the trees.

Dolinda was able to keep up with them at first, but later due to the **** relationship, it was very hard to squeeze in some narrow tree crevices, and the other two had to stop to help her.

"It hurts so much......"

After squeezing like this a dozen times, her chest began to swell.

Especially in the front area, it becomes very sensitive, and if you touch it a little more, you will feel the pain of piercing the heart; This feeling is different from the pleasure of being rubbed and bitten, full of violence and cruelty, which makes her so uncomfortable that she sheds tears.

"Does it still hurt?"

Evelyn opened her neckline and used the last little medicine of the trio on her.

"It doesn't hurt much......"

Dorinda's expression gradually improved as the cool potion applied to her red and swollen skin, but her voice turned into a soft moan as sensitive areas were touched.

"It's not going to go on like this."

Evelyn helped her cover her clothes, and turned her head to look at the trees in front of her that were getting tighter and tighter.

If she had acted like she had just done, she would have had no problem with Zero, and Dolinda, who had two cumbersome things, would definitely still be injured.

"It's really safe here."

Dolinda sat there panting:

"I'll find a tree to climb up first...... Waiting there for your return. ”

Seeing what Evelyn wanted to say, she smiled slightly and pointed to her body:

"Don't forget, I can't die, it's the two of you, you should be careful when you act. If there's a monster inside, run out. ”

The direct members of the Harlem royal family all have amulets of the gods, and whenever there is a danger to their lives, the protective enchantment will be triggered, and even if there is a dragon sleeping here, it will not hurt her in the slightest.

"I'll bring you a lot of delicious nectar."

Evelyn hugged her gently and whispered in her ear, "Wait until we get back." ”

Neither of them is a pretentious character, and the short-term difference in front of them is the best choice. They know this very well.

The rest of the journey was much more difficult, but with the little mouse Rami leading the way, they managed to find the easiest gap to pass through, and stumbled through the dense trees.

"Wow, look, this ...... This one! ”

When he reached a large area, Zero's nose moved, and he quickly ran to a water tank-shaped plant, and looked inside. Shouted happily.

"It's not really nectar, but it's something you can eat."

Seeing the pale golden honey in front of her, Evelyn's heart was inexplicably sour.

Because she thought of the slap she had given Maria.,Chilinghua is this kind of plant that uses fragrance to catch prey.,I don't know what happened to the little girl at the beginning.,Have you found a suitable way out after graduating from Wang Li School Park?

"Shhhh

Zero tried to put his head in to lick the sweet liquid, but found that his head couldn't reach it, so he cut open the outer wall of it with a piece of metal.

Sticky juice oozes from the greenery. She happily leaned on it and sucked it up.

"Take our bottles out and don't just drink to yourself. Bring some for Dolinda as well. ”

Evelyn came back to her senses, took out two of the small bottles that Zero was carrying, and carefully collected the honey.

"This leaf...... You can eat it too! ”

Zero couldn't help but take a bite when he saw the fat leaves growing above the plant, and his mouth was full of fragrant taste.

"Let me take this."

Evelyn quickly plucked a few leaves and tied them to herself.

It's not a lot of space in this area. But after about 15 minutes in the place full of food, Zero's little belly bulged, as if he had eaten a large cake in the palace of Gondia, and his expression was extremely satisfied.

"Don't keep Dolinda waiting, she's still hungry."

Evelyn tugged at her clothes.

"Hungry...... That's fine. Not good! ”

Zero's voice became solemn: "Let's go back quickly." ”

The two girls and a well-fed little mouse walked back happily, and when they reached those narrow places, they could barely squeeze through the food and breadth.

"Dolinda—we've found something delicious!"

Once the three of them were separated, Evelyn happily shook the bottle full of juice in her hand and shouted at the tree.

However, no one responded.

"Dolinda?"

Evelyn felt that something was wrong, and hurried to the bottom of the tree and looked up.

The branches were empty.

The little princess of the empire who had been sitting there disappeared, and a huge hole appeared in the place where it should have been a thick branch.

Something shattered the hard rock wall, and a gust of cold wind pierced through the cracked hole, like pouring a basin of ice water on her head, and the joy of finding food was swept away.

In its place, there was a surge of fear from the bottom of my heart...... There is also a deep sense of despair.

……

"If you get to the edges, it seems that the undead will not be very active, and the average level will be lower than the inside."

Xia manipulated Xue Qian's body to the outermost part of the decaying earth, touched the position of her temples, and felt that the possession state could be maintained for a while, so she began to continue to clean up the monsters here.

"Experience is slowing down."

She asked Erin to bring up the information bar, looking at the big LV79 on it, although the experience gauge increased slightly, there was still a knowing smile on her face.

LV79, only 11 levels away from the final goal of the first stage!

According to her speculation, the highest level of ordinary occupation in the New World is level 90.

- And in the cave of the monster Bud, there are still piles of sunstones and moonstones, and she doesn't even know how far those gems can lift her.

"Huh? The shape of this mountain seems to be a bit strange. ”

In the process of boring cleaning, her eyes inadvertently swept over a mountain, and she was immediately attracted by the peculiar appearance.

"It looks like a person's head has been cut off and the scene of struggling before death is frozen...... What a brutal view. ”

Habitually touching her chest, the strange feeling that came from her made her suddenly realize that this was someone else's body, and immediately put her hand down again. (To be continued.) )
