Overwhelmed by the sudden order to attack, Derno hurriedly followed Eders' footsteps and walked towards the spring: "Captain, do we really want to be the first to go down?"

"Nonsense, that's what a captain should do - lead by example. His tone returned to his normal state completely, and Eders gave him a blank look, as if the strange remark just now had never appeared: "You are no exception to the adjutant. I said that from now on you will be groomed to be your successor, and you will have to follow my pace in everything and act in unison - Quill is your best example, learn from him. ”

Isn't Quill long dead...... And he's been going against you all the time, so what kind of action is the same?I was expecting the captain to return to normal and not mention him as his successor, but Deerno plucked up his courage and whispered a suggestion: "That...... Captain ......"

"Alright, less. After the battle, you have to listen to as much Lao Tzu as you want. Impatiently interrupting Deerno's speech, Eders glanced at the soldiers lined up behind him and straightened his helmet: "Always have your weapons ready, Deernor." I don't know how dangerous it is below. ”

"Ah...... Well. Hanging his head in frustration, Deirno thought to his chagrin: how many times have I been interrupted today, and I haven't finished a sentence in full. Originally, I wanted to bring up the matter that I didn't want to be the successor, but Eders, who made it clear that he didn't want to hear it, said it so deadly, and he had to swallow the words in his throat and rot in his stomach.

"A team is divided into three groups, one round of four people at a time, and a total of three rounds can get a group of soldiers to go all underground. Rubbing his hands, Eddes motioned for the two nearest soldiers to walk to the other side of the spring: "You two climb the ladder over there." ”

It turned out that the first team was 12 people, not 10 people...... It seems that we are also in the category of "soldiers". Hurriedly looking back at the other groups, Deleno felt a little embarrassed: Did I just tell Lusha that there were ten people in their group?

It wasn't a big difference, it was just a small mistake, but Deerno's problem with numbers shook his heart - and though he knew it was ridiculous, he really wanted to correct it with the two of them.

Forcing his attention back to the spring, Drno looked at the deep, slightly illuminated cavern by the torch, his back still hairy. Controlling his eyes to the ladder he was about to climb, he couldn't help but observe the entire wall of the cave: it was an irregular circle, surrounded by four wooden ladders in an even space. Therefore, it is possible to climb down four people at the same time.

It must be dark underground, but the lighting problem is easy to solve - four people in each group will throw two torches before climbing down the ladder, and pick up the lighting after climbing down. Since the bearer of the torch could not use a shield, it was arranged for two people to share one. (Actually, it's mainly a matter of fuel cost)

In order to climb ladders of considerable depth, the soldiers could not carry too much weight, so they basically chose relatively light spears or swords, with shields. In reality, however, it was the bearer of the torch who was the main force in the battle - Vikol's heroic performances in the Dungeon and the Battle of the North Sea Lookout show that the Corrupt are afraid of fire.

It's impossible to say how lethal the flame of the torch will be, but there will always be a reward. Normal people are very uncomfortable when they are teased by fire, let alone corrupt people.

Somehow, this completely overturned the conclusion that the Maester had previously reached when he experimented with captured Corruptors in the Dungeon. Perhaps the degree of corrosion by black ice is different, and the degree of fear of fire will also change. After all, Nadia lacks test samples and is understandably unable to produce accurate data.

"Wait, Captain Edus. Before the two soldiers could approach the ladder, the elf suddenly dodged and stopped them, "Do you mind if Lusa and I go down with you first?"

"Miss Lusa, I remember telling you to go back and rest. We'll take care of the rest......" Frowning, Eddes glanced at Lusa, who was hiding behind the elf, and after meeting her eyes for a moment, he finally swallowed the unfinished words and agreed to the two's request: "Okay, but you are responsible for what happens." The two soldiers returned to the team and moved after the third group had climbed. ”

Nodding in acknowledgment, the two soldiers stepped back in unison, making room for the elves. Lowering the brim of the Deer Hunting Hat, Cyberdat bowed slightly, and said in a relaxed tone, "Thank you for your understanding, Lord Edus. ”

"Alright, let's climb down. The Adam's apple was visibly moving down from the swallowing motion, and Eders coughed, "Although I don't think it makes any sense......"

Did they have to be the first to go down, did they know what might be dangerous and decided to take the lead in investigating? Maybe it was because Lusha had the ability to see through the invisibility of monsters, so they did that...... Feeling a little dazed, Derno didn't come back to his senses until the captain hammered him the back.

"Hurry up!" grabbed the wooden ladder first, and without saying a word, Eders quickly climbed to the bottom. Despite the height, which made him cowardly, Deerno followed the captain's movements, barely crouching down and grasping the wooden ladder.

As long as you don't look down...... Desperately fixing his gaze on the sky overhead, the adjutant gritted his teeth and moved down as fast as he could. By the time he finally stepped onto the ground despite his dizziness, the three of them had been on the ground for a long time, and only Lusa, who was not holding a torch, was still standing by the entrance of the ladder, patiently waiting for Derno to accompany her.

Maybe there wasn't enough space, and Lusa didn't fly down with her wings...... Still a little dizzy from the climb just now, Deerno clutched his head and bent over in place to try to slow down. However, the small hand wearing the snow eagle gloves that appeared in front of him quickly dizzy: "Let's go, Denor? ”

"Ah, yes, yes. Having forgotten about this stubble, Deerno straightened up in embarrassment and walked quickly to the front to give up his position. In the next moment, the two torches were thrown down, followed by the sound of climbing ladders.

"It's not as big as I thought. The elf ran around with the torch, and soon walked around the cave wall: "That's about the size of four or five houses...... And there's no entrance to the depths. ”

"That seems to be the case. Looking around in bewilderment, Eders said in a puzzled tone, "Where did the enemy go?" ”
