Chapter 231: Exploration
The huge and wide cave was silent, and the black mist was here, I don't know if it was because of the enclosed space, the visibility here was lower than the outside world, and even Lynch, who relied on a pair of mutated eyes and had excellent vision, was like a blind man in an environment that could barely reach out and see his fingers.

Thankfully, he could see his hands when he lifted his arms.
Ying Lan walked in front of Lynch, she didn't make any footsteps in her boots, she was the main force of this operation, using a probing method similar to perception after gaining a profession to calculate whether the cross-section of the cave could safely allow the entire castle to pass.
"Sure enough. She whispered, stopped, and turned to look at Lynch: "This place is likely to be artificial, the cross-section has always been a standard semicircle, and the size has basically not changed, Lynch, your guess is very accurate." ā
"Oh," Lynch just whispered, knocking the smooth ground with his own foot, and the other hand was still holding on to the side of the equally smooth wall, the traces of this artificiality were already obvious, but Ying Lan didn't want to admit it, so he had to continue to use his own perception to detect: "I said a long time ago, this place is very likely to be artificial, but you have not believed it." ā
His words didn't have any echoes in the extremely empty cave, and even though he was on the side of the wall now, probably because the cave was too big: "Aren't there any monsters in here?"
"Yes," Ying Lan responded, wearing a hood and mask, and her voice was also very strange after being hindered by a mask, as if it had undergone a machine voice change, and it was no longer audible that it was a female voice: "But the number is small, the distribution is scattered, and it is still the configuration of monsters in the barren plains, and the castle can be directly crushed when it advances." ā
Lynch shrugged, "So let's move on?"
"It's not a long way here, let's speed up, finish the exploration as soon as possible, and return if nothing happens. ā
Lynch nodded in understanding. Ying Lan turned around, floated slightly, dozens of centimeters off the ground, and then began to fly forward.
"Keep up. The voice in front of him spoke, and in an instant it disappeared in front of Lynch, bringing a gust of wind.
Lynch immediately sped up to follow.
Ying Lan was moving fast, but Lynch could keep up with it, but his clattering voice was a little louder in the swarthy cave.
Neither of them paid any attention to this, though, and they were soon on the other side of the cave.
"It's shorter than I thought," Ying Lan muttered to herself, stopping in front of the exit on the other side of the cave.
"Nothing happened along the way," Lynch said as well, following the girl, a little disappointed that he didn't even have a slightly more powerful monster, and he might not even receive a little experience points on this trip.
Of course, it wasn't that nothing happened, the scattered monsters in the cave had been attracted by Lynch's footsteps, and these monsters were moving in the direction of the movement they heard, some of the monsters who felt a little better, or the monsters that were a little closer to Lynch were already coming this way.
But this is nothing for the two of them, and Lynch can solve it with a random lightning ball.
"But there's some good news. Ying Lan said, walking towards the other one on the wall of the cave entrance, during which there were some monsters who heard the sound and moved here, but they all seemed to have not seen Ying Lan, and directly ignored the tall figure in front of Lynch, and pounced directly towards Lynch.
Lynch's hand lit up with lightning.
"Don't use this elemental-type ability," Ying Lan interrupted Lynch's movements, "Just hit it with your fists." ā
Then I have to fight until the Year of the Monkey?" Lynch felt a little helpless in his heart, but he still had to obey Ying Lan's wishes and obediently start fighting with the monster in front of him.
The monsters can't keep up with Lynch's movements at all, plus the physical shape of some guys is very bulky in itself, and the guy who can touch the very fast Lynch is almost non-existent, and with the assistance of Lynch's talented eyes, he also almost completely avoided any accidents, all in all, Lynch's vigorous skills are like a master of making a martial arts movie, using his vigorous fists and feet to clean up a small number of humanoid minions and most of the alien minions in front of him who have no power to fight back.
It's just that this group of minions basically won't be so vulnerable to Lynch's punches, and most of the guys can basically continue to live and try to trouble him after receiving a few punches and kicks from Lynch.
It's different if you change to a human, the monster is a rough skin and thick meat.
While Lynch was still busy fighting the monsters that had surrounded him, Ying Lan had already walked to the edge of the wall, staring at the dense runes engraved on it, as well as a magic book embedded in the wall.
"Interesting...... she whispered, her eyes lit up under the mask, and she frowned abruptly as she looked at the carved words on the wall and the hand-sized magic book embedded in the wall, "...... Broken?"
Her hand lit up with a white light, and she gently touched the place of the magic book.
On the cold wall, the carved words emitted a faint light with Ying Lan's touch, but it was only fleeting, and there was no movement in the blink of an eye.
Then the book embedded in the wall immediately turned to ashes and fell to the ground.
"Hmm," Ying Lan sighed as if she let out a long sigh, looking at the words on the wall that had also begun to decay rapidly with the damage to the magic book, and just sighed, "Okay." ā
As she spoke, she snapped her fingers on her hands, and everything behind her, including Lynch, that could move came to a jerk, and then all the monsters turned to stone and fell to the ground and shattered.
Maybe some of the early defenses the people of Mage City did here, but it looks like it's been a long time since it was unmaintained.
Lynch moved his body, walked in the direction of Ying Lan, and asked, "What's the reason?"
"It's nothing," Ying Lan replied, "You can't understand it, just make a fuss about me." Go out and have a look. ā
She said as she walked out of the cave.
To be honest, if it weren't for the wall as a contrast, Lynch, who didn't open his senses, would never be able to tell the difference between outside the cave and inside the cave, and for him, under the cover of the thick black fog, everything around him was actually not much different.
ā...... There's nothing around here," Ying Lan said, standing at the mouth of the cave, looking at the endless darkness ahead, as if she could see something clearly, "It's safe, and the castle can pass through at any time." ā
She said, turning back without hesitation: "Don't make them wait, go back and prepare to move forward." Leave the rest to Fred. ā
