Trip to Northmar 3 Dance of the Blood Butterfly 2

Follow Mercer all the way west......

A large complex of ancient buildings suddenly appeared in front of you, although most of them have collapsed, but there is still something to see from the remnants of the ruins, the whole complex looks like a combination of Romanesque and Korean and Japanese, and there are even some high-rise buildings and farm-like buildings in the depths.

Walking down the main street of the complex, Maiser saw that I had been looking up at the buildings on both sides.

"This is a city where the High Elves once lived, so the city as a whole is also diverse and diverse. But with their disappearance, so did the city. Because of the desert, there are very few people here, and the city only surfaces at this time of year, and most of the time it is buried under the yellow sand. ”

"I see!"

"It's here!"

With that, Maiser pushed hard against a wall.

There was a soft "click".

In the blink of an eye, the wall caved in, and then rose with the sound of "Crunch, Crunch!" to reveal a hole!

"Let's go!" Maiser was the first to flash in.

Ximena noticed that I was looking at her, and said, "Let's go! Now that we're here, there's nothing to be afraid of!

After Shimena finished speaking, she walked in, and Yani tilted her head, pouted, and walked in with her, leaving me alone at this time.

"Wow...!"

Suddenly, the walls began to fall slowly, apparently closing, barely giving me time to think.

"Boom!"

The wall fell completely, and just a few seconds before the wall fell, I dodged in.

The streets were back to their original appearance, as if there had never been a hole.

Unlike everyone else, I seem to have been born with an unusually sensitive sense of things in the dark, and even without a light source, I can see everything in the cave clearly.

It's a bit like an ancient darkroom, not as big as you might think, but it has all the utensils you need.

"Uh!" suddenly felt a little dazzling! Hurriedly raised his hand to block his eyes.

The sudden appearance of the light source was uncomfortable for me, and upon closer inspection, I realized that it was Mercer who lit the candle in the corner of the dark room.

Maiser lit the candle, put on the lampshade, turned to the chair next to him and sat down, "Now you can say, why are you here?"

Shimena looked at me, turned to Maxer and asked, "Can we start by asking, why do you know about such a place?"

Maiser couldn't help but be stunned, obviously he didn't expect the other side to suddenly ask,

"I said I don't know why, do you believe it? I said that when I wake up, I have a memory of everything about this place, do you believe it?"

"Believe!"

Looking at the excited Mercer, Ximena said calmly and looked at me at the same time.

I shrugged my shoulders and agreed with Ximena. As for Yani, she has always looked up to me on such occasions.

Amnesia? It's hard to tell from Maxer's voice, but it's always been a matter for Ximena.

Thinking of this, I was suddenly attracted by the bookshelf in the corner, so I stopped caring about what they were talking about, and turned around and walked towards the bookshelf.

"We're adventurers, we're here to train! I'm from the north," Shimena said, pointing to me rummaging through books on the shelves, and another Yani sitting in a chair, "Anna and Yani reading books are from Hemalton. The three of us met during our adventures in Bantu and agreed to travel to Northmar together. ”

"Bantu!"

"Indeed," said Maiser thoughtfully, "this is the closest way from Bantu to Northmar. At the same time, it also shows that you are not bad people, and bad people will not be able to enter Bantu. It's just that the road is not easy to walk now..."

......

The blood butterfly, which lives in the desert northeast of Northmar, feeds on the sap of living people and lays eggs into the human body to reproduce.

Attack variety, Poison Needle (poisoned), Wing Strike, Butterfly Storm (multi-stage attack), Chrysalis (if you get close, you will be caught by your wings and take damage over time), Blood Butterfly Dance (Blood Butterfly scatters scales into the air during the dance, and the nearest enemy will be immediately poisoned and paralyzed).

After poisoning, the blood of the body will turn into a strong acid-like substance when exposed to the air, and the larvae cannot be exposed to the air for too long. Because it often feeds on travelers, it is called a blood butterfly.

Giant sandworms, carnivorous insects, often use their nests as traps to hunt because they are too large to move. The sandworm's trap is funnel-shaped, and once you tune into the sandworm's trap, the quicksand around you will make you quickly slide into the middle position, and the chance of escape is almost zero.

Looking at these numbing bugs in the book, I read a few pages and put it down and quickly changed to a book.

Judging from the cover, it seems to be about the history of elves......

Ximena and Maiser were chatting about something, and Yani was in a daze, and I was the only one interested in the books on the shelves.

......

"Anna!"

Just as I was seeing the relish, Shimena interrupted my thoughts and looked up at her,

"What's wrong?"

"In a moment we will cross the desert and hear from Maiser that this place will soon be buried again by yellow sand!" Shimena explained.

I turned to look at Maxer.

"Yes, I was going to pick up something and leave!, but I met you, so I was delayed!" Maxer smiled awkwardly.

I hurriedly put down the book in my hand and gave Yani a few nudges to signal her to wake up.

"Didn't you say this earlier, do you need our help?"

Maiser distributed what had been prepared to each of us, "Go out in a moment, and you will all follow in my footsteps." If you encounter a blood butterfly, listen to my command!"

Although the time was pressing, Mercer did not panic at all, reminding us of the precautions from time to time and checking everyone's protective clothing.

Protective clothing, which is a smock-like stuff made of oilcloth, encounters blood butterflies scattering scale powder in the air, and wearing this thing can avoid poisoning and paralysis to a certain extent.

The other one is fire oil, this thing in the desert is almost a panacea for those monsters, no matter how powerful the insect is, it is also a bug, and if it is an insect, it will be afraid of fire.

Everything was ready, and with the sound of "click" gears, the street appeared before our eyes again.

"Let's go!"

Maiser, who had gone out first, seemed to have discovered something, and kept waving his hands and shouting.

"it!"

When I got out of the dark room, I found that the tornado was accelerating in the sky, and it was only a matter of time before it drifted over.

The four of them were running fast through the broken streets, and I asked Maiser why he chose to cross the desert at this time, and Maiser told us that there was no way to cross the desert at this time.

Because only during this time of day, the bugs in the desert will not be so active. From Maxer's words, it is not difficult to judge that Maxer is more willing to face sandstorms than those bugs.

Looking at the surging sand and dust behind me, I can now feel the horror of the insects.
