After waiting for a while at the entrance to the mine, seeing nothing happen, Noshi lowered his hand holding the knight's sword. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Shall we go into the mines?" asked Leif, who had already opened the spell book.

There are no fingers in the mine, and it may be dangerous to enter rashly, so Leif uses a first-level spell "Fireball Technique" to lure and not launch, acting as a light to enter the mine.

"Let's go inside, I don't know if there's anyone alive inside" Noshi had no fear on her face, but she was now worried about Rivi.

Since it is a mine tunnel, the space for the internal corridor must not be large, and it is difficult for her to take into account the safety of Livi if there is a battle, especially since Livi's combat effectiveness is still zero.

"I'll just stay outside, you guys go and get back quickly" Rivi was also very self-aware and took the initiative to quit, which Noshi was a little surprised by, but she quickly recovered, nodded and entered the mine.

"Be careful yourself"

Lef, who was finally able to act with Noshi, had no opinion, and followed Noshi into the mine, but he still said something to Levi before leaving.

Now Levi is the only one left at the entrance to the mine.

It was still very cold in the mountains at night, and the mountain wind was blowing desperately, so Li Wei tightened the linen robe on his body, and it was not a way to wait here, so he took Xiao Ming and walked to the side of the mine road.

At the back of the mine were huts for the miners, and the moonlight was blocked by dark clouds overhead, and visibility was so low that Levi couldn't see if anyone was there after several looks.

"Meow~" Xiao Ming called again, but Xiao Ming was a cat, and Levi couldn't understand what it was calling.

Boldly, Levi walked towards the hut step by step, there was no fire in the mines, not even moonlight now, and there was no sound around except for the wind that had blown.

"This can come in handy" Walking near the hut, Levi picked up a broken piece of wood on the ground and made it into a simple torch with alchemy.

However, this torch can't be burned for too long, the general torch will be wrapped in a cloth soaked in fire oil, here Levi can't find fire oil, although animal fat can also be burned, but now the animals around him are only Xiao Ming except himself.

"Ignite!ahem, let's use it," using alchemy to "ignite" the wood, Levi held up a makeshift torch that was still emitting sparks and smoke and walked towards the hut.

There were a lot of traces of life here, the cutlery and cooking utensils used by the miners were still left in their respective houses, and there was a pile of ore piled up on the cart next to it, and Levi looked at the cart and found that the ore on the cart was just some low-value iron ore.

Looking along the miners' humble houses, Levi still didn't see anyone, but Xiao Ming did find two dried sea fish in the room where the overseer lived.

This area of Kribi City is located in the middle of the continent and is an inland town, so there are really not many seafood and the like, and most of the fish are freshwater fish, which shows that this overseer is good at oil and water.

Levi, who had circled the mines, gave up, and there was no longer half a figure to be found here except for him.

"Won't they all die in the mines..."Levi's face became ugly, how could there be fifty or sixty miners in a mine, and now all of them died inexplicably?

Throwing the hot wood to the ground to extinguish the fire, Levi sat on a large rock and waited for Noshi and them to return, while Xiao Ming licked his paws, his eyes glancing at the overseer's house from time to time, apparently still thinking about the two sea fish.

As time ticked by, Levi began to get anxious, and now it had been a full two hours since Noshi and Leif entered the mine, but they still showed no sign of returning.

"It's not like they're stuck in the mine, doesn't it mean it's safe here" Levi became anxious, and Xiao Ming, who was nesting on his head, was still licking his hair.

After waiting on the stone for another hour, this time Livi couldn't sit still, and was about to go to the entrance of the mine to call the two of them, but found that he didn't know when, a pair of glowing eyes had surrounded him.

The moment Xiao Ming's cruel eyes appeared, he burrowed into Levi's collar, and his fluffy body was still shaking.

"How come, there are so many wolves..."At this time, Levi's face turned white, and he rolled under the big stone with the fire hammer.

"Woohoo" wolf howls echoed in the empty mines, Levi's palms were full of sweat, how he wished Noshi was here, even if it was Lef, a fireball spell would scare them if they couldn't kill the wolves.

Usually, the overseers of the Essin Mine would send people on duty in turn to prevent wolves from breaking into the mine, but now that the mine is empty and surrounded by blood, these bloodthirsty wolves surround the mine, and Levi has become a delicious flesh and blood food in their eyes.

"Tsk, it looks like we can only go into the mine," Levi glanced left and right, gritted his teeth, and ran wildly towards the mine with a firecracker.

The danger in the mine is dangerous, but at least there is Nuo Xi and them to help one or two, but they stay here, there is only one dead end, and there is no dead body!

"Meow!" As if to cheer up his master, Xiao Ming let out a muffled cry in Levi's neckline.

Before the wolves had surrounded the mine, Levi was able to reach the entrance of the mine safely, and not daring to look back, Levi plunged headlong into the dark mine.

In addition to reaching out and missing five fingers, the mine was dusty, and with his sleeve covering his face, Levi used his escape ability that he had trained for more than a year, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

However, if Rivi could stay and take a look, he would find that the wolves chasing him stopped when they reached the entrance of the mine, and after a moment's wandering, they gradually retreated.

They're scared of what's inside the tunnel.

Levi, who ran to himself and was almost out of breath, leaned against the wall with one hand, his chest hurt terribly, and when he looked up after he was out of breath, he found that he couldn't see anything.

There really wasn't even a little light in the mines, so Levi had to walk along the wall, and in a moment his right finger hit something—it was a torch that had been extinguished on the wall!

"Ignite!"

Finding a torch that could burn continuously, Rivery immediately took the torch down and used alchemy to ignite the oil on the torch again.

The fire lit up, and Levi raised his torch to look around, and some of the insects that were afraid of the flames immediately fled, and looked ahead, only to see that the mine road had been stretching straight and did not know where it would end up.

The walls of the mine were fixed with wood, and now that there was no way back to the entrance, Levi called out, "Noshi!"

"Where are you!" only Levi's own echo sounded in the narrow tunnel.

Without a response, Levi cautiously advanced with the torch, he hung the firearm back on his backpack and took out the alchemy grenade in his waist bag, but he would never throw it out unless he was forced to do so, who knows if the grenade would collapse the mine if it exploded.

"Where the hell have you gone" walked for more than half an hour, and there were many forks in the road, and a lot of bugs were caught, but Levi still couldn't find Noshi and Leif.

Just as Levi was a little discouraged, a puddle of red liquid on the ground caught his attention, it was blood, and it looked like it had not been left for a long time, the color was dull and reflective, but these were not the focus of Levi's attention, and he picked up a rag next to the bloodstain.

The shreds were black in color with red veins on them, which were supposed to be fragments of Leif's clothes.

Before bringing the torch to the blood, Levi used the light of the fire to find more and more bloodstains, which stretched all the way to a fork in the tunnel next to the mine.

It seemed that they had been attacked by some creature, and Levi stood in front of the fork in the road and shouted again, "Noshi, are you in there!"

This fork in the road is different from the others, the air is very cold and humid, and it is clear that there is a convection at the end of the fork, which carries the turbid air out.

Standing here and waiting didn't help the situation, and Levi couldn't escape alone, so he gritted his teeth and simply stretched out his torch and walked into the fork in the road step by step.

But to Levi's surprise, this fork in the road is not long, he walked for less than a few minutes to the end, in front of him appeared a gap about 5m in diameter, listening to his "knock" heart, Levi looked into the gap, just a glance, his torch rolled to the ground.

It was a centipede with a body length of more than 10m, a pair of huge jaws with venom glowing blue, dark brown carapace all over the body, and the scalp numbing steps were constantly twisting in the air, and outside this gap, there was a naturally formed underground cave, and the space was enough to accommodate the big centipede, and it seemed very empty.

However, what reassured Rivian was that the cave was still relatively well-lit, and there was a large hole overhead that shone in the belated moonlight, and Leif was confronting the big centipede under the cave.

Leif looked bad, his face was pale, and he was visibly exhausted, a huge wall of ice stood in front of him, and he spotted Levi standing in the gap.

"Why did you get in!" Covering the wound on his lower abdomen, Leif fired two fireballs at the big centipede, drawing the big centipede's attention.

The fireball hit the hard carapace of the big centipede and extinguished after a while, unable to do any damage, and the provoked big centipede hissed and pounced on it at once.

Boom!

The big centipede crashed into Lef's ice wall, and the ice wall suddenly burst out of the ice, and Leif was still attacking with a fireball, and the fireball slammed into the big centipede in the air.

What the hell is going on, how did this big centipede come about, and where did Noshi go?

The more critical the moment, the quicker Levi will calm down, which is why he has been able to escape the Empire's pursuers many times, only to see him glance around the cave and roughly judge the damage that the alchemy grenade may cause.

The slope between the gap and the cave floor was not very steep, and Levi rushed out of the gap and ran down the cave, breaking the grenade and pulling it out as he ran.

"Please eat this!" Now the big centipede is mainly attacking Lef, and without seeing Levi's small movements, the round grenade jingles and rolls to the big centipede's side.

Bang!

A violent explosion sounded, and dust rose into the sky, but this big centipede didn't know how it mutated, the carapace defense on its body was amazing, and the impact of the alchemy grenade after the explosion was actually all bearable.

"Are you a fool!" Leif was angry and anxious now, this guy named Levi was not a knight and not a mage, and he was injured again, didn't he run down and die.

"Ha, ha, I can't fight, but I can still help, what about the Nohi?" asked a panting Leev as he ran to Lef's side.

"There's also a big mutated centipede, that centipede swept away Noxi" Speaking of Noxi, Lef's face turned even whiter "Damn, it's all my fault, if I could be stronger, Noshi wouldn't..."

"How long has it been?" asked Levi, leaning against the ice wall and looking at the big centipede.

"It's been more than an hour, this centipede's carapace is too hard, and Noxi's sword can't cut into it" continued to shoot at the centipede in vain with the fireball technique, and now the six gods of Leif have no master.

In his opinion, more than an hour had passed, and Noshi had already turned into a corpse.

"Aren't you chasing Noxi" The big centipede got up again, creaking up and down, and came this way again.

"I'm courting her, but right now—" A hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Leif by the collar, and Levi's face suddenly came to him, "I'm a useless coward in your eyes, right?"

Leif looked at Levi's red eyes in astonishment, speechless.

"But as far as I'm a coward, I also know what to do if Noshi is in danger now! That is, to save her! Now you still have time to complain about me here?!"

Faced with an enraged Levi, Leif froze.
