Chapter 644: Cavemen
Wang Chu is also very sensitive to smells, and he asked a special question from before An Wenna spoke.
Not the smell of cinders in the mine, but a more pungent one.
Kind of like ...... Kind of like ......
Thinking about this smell carefully, I have the impression of why it was short-circuited at this time.
"What smelled, how did I not smell it. The red-haired black dwarf Bevern sniffed in the air a few times, and looked at his expression as if he didn't notice anything.
"Uncle, isn't your nose only able to smell what you eat, how can you smell it? ”
Not to mention him, not even the little dwarf girl smelled it.
Wang Chu estimated whether the dwarves had worked in bunkers or underground all year round, and their physical functions had deteriorated.
Look at their skin is also different from the dwarves living in the human world, as hard as stone, and it seems that there is no breath when they are quiet, and it is difficult to even find themselves.
Walking down the steps of the pit, the speed slowed down.
At this time, Lias also smelled it.
"It smells so bad!"
Speaking of stink, Wang Chu finally remembered what it was......
In the past, when she was in the imperial capital, Lias also made the same dissatisfied voice, which was near the military nutrition horse shed, when the weather was hot, many horses had not bathed for a long time, and the smell of sweat and feces on their bodies.
This one is very similar.
Avenna asks if there are any cavemen underground.
Wang Chu hurriedly asked Anwenna to ask the dwarves, and his footsteps suddenly stopped at the forefront.
"What's wrong? Cam, did you find something? Lias also subconsciously pulled out her sword, usually when Wang Chu posed in this posture, he was ready to fight.
Not yet, but soon.
"What? Cavemen, cavemen! These damn guys always like to run to our abandoned mines to survive, and they are so lazy that they have to pick up the house for nothing. ”
Anwenna asked the caveman how to cause such a big reaction from Red Common.
"Miss Elf, you said you found cavemen down there? Sure enough, they are always sneaking into our mines to survive, and many of our dwarven brothers are often injured by them, if they are I will teach them a good lesson. Bai Ende dissatisfiedly picked up the two-handed hammer.
It's similar to what was used when striking iron, and Wang Chu probably got it from there.
The five of them walked down slowly, with Wang Chu at the front, and the dwarf girl standing at the back behind Lias.
The light moves down little by little......
Wang Chu had been paying attention to the surrounding places, to see if there were cavemen hiding in those dark passages or stone steps.
I have always heard that there are cavemen living underground, but I have never gone deep into the ground, so I have never found it, and the eyes of the creatures that live underground all the year round have long since degenerated and dare not look at the light, so I slightly controlled Sapphras to illuminate the fire brighter.
It's still some distance from the mine.
The structure of the dwarven mine is really similar, although this section of the road is deeper than the previous one, but the layout of the construction and the surrounding furnishings are almost the same.
It's just that the ladder is longer than before.
The further down you go, the stronger the smell becomes.
This is the smell of the fermentation of beast feces and sweat.
And it's a beast with a single food source, unlike humans, omnivores, so they have all the tastes, and compared to herbivores, they feel better, cavemen definitely don't eat grass, but they probably don't have anything to eat underground.
Wang Chu had heard Lias's mentors say that cavemen live on dirt, I don't know if it's true, I guess there are humus or something, otherwise the body function is worrying, so you can still hurt the dwarf like a stone?
The light gradually decreased, and the smell was strong, even the dwarves could smell it.
"Look, what's that?"
There are still a few flights of stairs, but the light can already see the bottom...... At the bottom are the entrances of several mines, which are supposed to lead to different jobs at the entrances of the mines, and the center is a transit area like a rest or intersection.
It has been uninhabited for many years, and the stone face has long accumulated a thick layer of dust, and the soles of your feet feel like sand when you step on it.
And in the center lay a number of small corpses.
The bones are still there, the flesh is covered with dust, but it hasn't rotted yet, there are no flies in the ground, there are hardly any other bugs, and the corpses are probably decomposed by microorganisms.
Wang Chu looked at these creatures, their arms were very long, but they were very short, there was no hair on their skin, it was estimated that they had not seen light all year round, their entire skin turned white, and their heads looked like monkeys.
Strangely enough, though, it hasn't been very long...... Somewhere in the middle, it happened to be pierced by a stone that Anwenna had just dropped and hit a dead caveman, and the flesh was still visible.
Baiende took a few steps forward and walked to the center of the troglodyte corpse.
"Uncle, be careful. ”
"It's okay kids, they're long dead, this is where they live, cavemen love to live in our abandoned mines, because only dwarven caves can dig a few kilometers underground, and they're spacious enough for them to live. Bai Ende said.
In this kind of underground world, there are very few creatures that can live, and there are no natural predators, and many of them have almost degraded their living abilities.
Wang Chu looked at them with such a strange shape, long hands and short feet were not suitable for running, at most they climbed.
Baiende flipped over a troglodyte corpse with a hammer.
It's okay not to move, but this time I turned over and found that my entire body was actually cut off from the waist.
It's more like being broken alive.
Wang Chu and a few people also walked down, this pit leads to five directions, all of which are the kind of long corridors, and two of them can still see mine carts, which are estimated to be mine cart transport tracks.
"What kind of wound is this! Look at how they have died for a few months, less than half a year at most, there is no trace of fighting around, they must have been moved here...... What the hell is that??"
Just as they were thinking, they suddenly heard a creaking sound coming from a hole.
"Be careful!"
Seeing a black shadow flashing, Wang Chu waved Safras with his hand, and the flames flew in the direction of the black shadow like a magic thrown out.
Creak~
The sound was peculiar, and it was only when the flames were rapidly burning on it that everyone could see clearly.
It's a bug, a bug that looks like a black beetle.
But she's almost as tall as a normal human thigh, and Lias is a girl who's a little shorter, and the horns of the beetle's head are almost all up to her stomach.
Under the scorching of pure fire, he cried out twice and fell.
There is very little air underground, and luckily the caves dug by the dwarves are connected to each other so that people can breathe, but the pure fire elemental can ignite anywhere.
The beetle lay on the ground, and a smell of burnt paste came out.
Everyone covered their noses.
Are these ground worms?
