Chapter Fifty-Seven: Enter the Second Floor of the Sewers!
"Squeak squeak!"
"Squeak squeak!"
On the other side of the dirt, Ron could still hear the rapid chirping of moonlight rats that had not yet entered the tunnel, and the movement of them digging through the dirt with their front paws. But relative to Ron's efficiency, they are slow and weak to excavate, and are no longer on the same level.
What's more, Ron didn't dig and fill the ground a little bit and then stopped, his limbs digging frantically, with the backward motion without stopping.
At first, the chirping of the moonlight rat was faintly audible, but as Ron continued to retreat, the sound continued to decrease until the sound of waves crashing against the embankment was heard, and then no matter how much you listened, there was only a silent dead silence!
Apparently the giant mud monster was still not satisfied after devouring the corpses of dozens of humans, and it swept through all the flesh and blood it could encounter in its path, whether it was cockroaches, lizards, or moonlight rats, all of which were spared!
"Squeak!"
Alas, the rats will remember you!
After listening intently for a few more moments, making sure there was no more noise on the other side, Ron finally sighed and turned around, no longer digging to fill up, but flicking his limbs and starting to chase the migrating rats.
In fact, even if the moonlight rat chirped from the other side at this moment, Ron would not dig again to open the tunnel. Mud monsters are called mud monsters because their bodies can be transformed like mud at will, and if Ron opens the tunnel and the mud monsters don't leave, the migrating rat colony will also face extinction.
In that case, everything Ron is doing at the moment will be meaningless!
............
Sewer level, lizardman camp.
As the most knowledgeable city in the entire continent of Faeron, Candleburg has divided all existing species into challenge levels according to their characteristics and skills.
In the case of the Lizardmen, for example, a normal Lizardman challenge level of 1 means that a five-person adventure party with an average level of 1 can eliminate them without taking any damage or minor injuries.
Not only does the Iron Fist and Divine Gift Joint Adventure Team have more than five people, reaching eight, but everyone is a high-level professional who has passed the exemplary path, and if it is expressed by the challenge level, the Iron Fist and God Gift Joint Adventure Team definitely exceeds 11+.
Therefore, even if there are nearly a hundred salamanders in the camp, and there are even powerful lizardmen who have already been employed as warriors or rangers, they are still at a disadvantage under the attack of the Iron Fist and the Divine Gift Joint Adventure Team.
"Despair!"
"Panic!"
"Demise!"
"Fireball!"
Three one-ring magic spells shot out in a row, making the war lizardmen in the camp immediately in fear, doubt, trembling, and despair, and then Green's three-ring plastic energy spell [Fireball Technique] exploded in the war lizard camp, instantly reducing the difficulty of the battle by half.
Gondork then stormed the lizardmen camp, waving his greatsword shield and carrying most of the lizardmen who wanted to get close to the mages and priests, while Ike Froude's crossbow and Fiona's longbow were left to teach the rest.
So, after only a few minutes of fighting, the camp of the lizardmen who had gathered near the second staircase to the sewers was completely wiped out!
............
"What a stench!"
"However, the lizardmen sometimes have some good collections!"
"Look what I found!"
Having the priest cast a [Resistance Boost] on his body, Ike rummaged through several shacks that had not yet been ignited by the fireball.
The lizardmen are still in a primitive society, not only do they have no common assets, but even their spouses are shared, and their children are raised by the tribe.
However, the Lizardmen consider steel to be the most valuable thing, so they have a preference for anything with a metallic sheen, and the long period of looting often makes it a surprise for the Lizardmen's camp.
For example, the Mithril ore in Ike's hand with countless silver-white points of light shining like stars in the sky.
However, this is considered the communist property of the adventure team, and it does not belong to Ike alone, and it needs to wait for the return to the ground for valuation before distribution. So, Ike showed the ore in front of everyone, put it in his backpack, and rummaged through the camp again.
Steel, ore, herbs, there are still some nice items in the cluttered piles of the Lizard Camp, but for both Tekken and the Divine Quest Squad, the sewers are still a long way to go, and they need to keep going, so they are not suitable for carrying these bulky items.
Eventually, the team only accepted a single piece of Mithril ore and gathered in the middle of the lizardmen's camp to the stairs on the second floor of the sewers.
............
"This is the staircase to the second level of the sewer. ”
"On the next level, the lizardmen are only the weakest food and slaves. ”
"According to the map you gave me, we will pass through the territory of a group of Tain, and then the mud swamp, and after passing through the swamp, you can see the entrance to the lich's location, but there is a ghost Naga at the entrance. ”
Gu Luo, who was completely invisible in the battle, didn't know where to get out of it, and took out the map drawn from his bosom to determine the direction, and with Gu Luo's introduction, Green's brows began to furrow slightly.
Fortunately, the Qin people are peaceful, elegant, and tranquil, and as long as they do not enter their territory, these intelligent mushroom people who can walk will not attack. But mud monsters don't distinguish between friend and foe, not to mention that there is a high-level undead ghost Naga with a basic challenge level 7 or higher at the end.
However, when Green's gaze swept over his compatriots again, his frown loosened again.
Danger is there, but with the team behind them just as strong, three priests who have passed the Path of the Exemplar, a long-established mage, a divine field marksman, an agile cat night thief, and a trustworthy vanguard guard who never flinchs, what kind of adventure can stop such a team?
Even a young dragon would be defeated by such a team, right?
"Let's go when we've had enough rest!"
"The more we delay, the more the sewer smell will erode our bodies and spirits. ”
"We have to do it quickly!"
"Go back, I'll invite everyone to drink!"
Encouraging his companions, Green slammed his staff, and immediately the [Light Technique] was released at the top of the staff, blooming with a soft but light that was enough to illuminate a twenty-foot radius, and with the staff on his hand, Green took the lead in stepping down the stairs, and then the Iron Fist and the Divine Gift Joint Adventure Team followed closely behind, entering the second level of the sewers!
