Chapter 39: The Underworld
"Qing'er, you are not allowed to go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info I said.
"Why, Brother Mu Feng?" Yu Wenqing pursed her lips to express dissatisfaction.
"You need to stay and help, let's just go. I said.
"But people want to go down too. Yu Wenqing pretended to be pitiful.
"If you want to go, it's not fun to go down, stay well, there is a city within a city plan above the ground to be implemented, and there must be a strong person to suppress the formation. "I really regard Yu Wenqing as my sister, so I don't want her to do such a dangerous thing.
"Alright then, I'll help you out, and when you come back, you'll see your city-within-a-city project come to fruition. Yu Wenqing finally compromised.
"Master, with my current strength, going down will only drag you down, I'll stay on it, be careful. Brown looked at the rope that Yao Shengjie had found, and thought about it. Since Brown became a lion, not only his stature, but also his weight have increased dramatically, and looking at this rope, it is still a little dangerous.
"Huh, dog, aren't you going?" asked Lulu.
"Well, I have to become stronger during this time, if I don't have enough strength, I'll just hold back. Brown replied.
"It's okay, leave it to us below, you just stay on top. I replied.
"Wait a minute, Brother Mu Feng, how is this signal tower going to work?" Yao Shengjie stopped us as we were about to go down.
"Brother Yao, this signal tower is probably no problem, if necessary, I still have a few books about these at home, you can take a look. "I then explained the location of my house, and went down with Tide and the others, the goal of which was naturally to find Roy.
In the darkness, we continued to slide down the rope, but no matter what, the range of the fireball was always so limited that it seemed to come to an end anyway.
"How deep is this?" asked Tidal.
"I don't know, it's over 100 now. I replied.
"What's the length of the rope?" Tide asked, if the rope wasn't long enough then it would have to be returned, after all, no one but Lulu could fly.
"Almost thirteen hundred. I replied. So as not to be enough, we prepared a long rope in advance, which should be enough.
The tide also didn't expect it to be so deep, and was slightly taken aback: "It's okay for us to hand it over to Yao Shengjie, right? What if he calculates us?" After all, Yao Shengjie has a criminal record, and the tide is not very reassured.
"Why do you think Brown is staying on it?" I asked.
"You've thought of that a long time ago?" Tide was a little surprised.
Brown thought of it to be exact, staring at the hole as it spoke. I replied.
"It's really dirty to engage in schemes, and I don't even believe in my companions who have worked hard together. Tide said casually.
"Hey, hey, you don't believe me, do you?" I said.
"Focus, it seems like you're almost at the end. Tide said.
I looked down, and the rope was coming to an end, and I could already see the shadow of the ground from the flames, so I could continue down. However, following the rope downward, we find that we are still a long way from the bottom.
"There's the bottom down there, what are we going to do?" said Tide, "Strategist, think of a way." "At some point, the tide began to call the strategist again.
I took a closer look, about a few tens of meters away, is there anything in the digital space that can be replaced?
Belts?What are you kidding, how long can a few belts be?Tearing the sheets and tying the knots?Do you think it's a prison break drama?What's more, why do I have sheets in my digital space?
"Lulu, can you fly down with Mu Feng?" Tide asked when he saw that I didn't seem to have a choice.
"It's a bit difficult. Lulu shook her head, as if my weight was a challenge for her.
"My words, I just need to drag it a little, it doesn't have to be a smooth fall, I have the fighting spirit, I shouldn't be able to fall to death. I said. At a height of several tens of meters, if you protect it with battle gas, you can still give it a try. Although my fighting spirit is very weak now, it may not be able to make much difference, but if Lulu catches me and slows down the fall, it will still be fine.
"Are you sure? The human body is too heavy, and I may not be able to hold it for long. Lulu said.
"It's okay," I said, "it's just, how do you go down the tide?"
"I can step on the flames to go down, a distance of tens of meters, and it is still very safe. Tide said.
"Okay, then let's go on like this, Xiao Mufeng, you be careful. Lulu said.
"Wait a minute. "I hurriedly stopped the tide that wanted to go down first.
"What's wrong?" Tide asked.
"We're wearing gas masks right now, so we're fine, but who knows if there's going to be something down there, and what about the oxygen? Let's analyze it with an instrument. "I took out the air analyzer I got from Yao Shengjie and started analyzing the data.
"How's that? Questions?" asked Tidal.
"The data shows that carbon dioxide is high, oxygen is insufficient, and it is possible to breathe hard underground, but there is no other danger. I said.
"That's good, I'll go down first. The tide jumped down directly as he spoke, only to see a flame appear under his feet, he stepped on it and jumped away again with his strength, so he used the flame as a foothold, and the tide came to the ground safely.
"Let's go down too. I said. Then Lulu grabbed my clothes on top of it, and I jumped off as well. I saw Lulu's little wings fluttering, and she seemed to be struggling.
"Mu Feng, you are very serious. Lulu grumbled, her face flushed.
"It's okay, you don't have to keep it slow, you just have to do your best. I said.
"I can't catch it. Lulu said, descent faster and faster, and soon I was falling underneath.
"Are you alright, Kibong?" asked Tidal.
"It's okay, it's okay, there's a fighting spirit, and there's no big damage. I said. Before, I thought that the tide was like this, constantly using the battle qi as a shield to buffer the speed of my fall, and with Lulu's help, there was no harm in the end. This is also because of my weak fighting spirit, if it is strong enough, then it can come down as freely as the tide.
"Where's Roy? where is Roy?" Lulu asked, looking at the desolation in front of her, "Tide, isn't Roy supposed to be here? Why can't you see anything now?" ”
"That's right, everyone heard Roy's cries for help before, so it can't be wrong, Roy must be down there. I said.
"And now, where has Roy gone now?" Lulu asked.
"How do I know? Maybe it's an outlet? But all I can guarantee is that Roy is fine. "Tides explained.
"And how do we find Roy?" asked Lulu.
"If we heard it right, Roy is down here, and now that we're here, we're sure to be able to hear Roy. I said.
"Let's see, did Roy leave a mark?" said Tide, squatting down, pinching a handful of dirt, rubbing it with his fingers, his forehead wrinkled, as if something bad was wrong.
"What's wrong, Tidal?" I asked.
"This dirt is not ordinary dirt. Tide said.
"What's so special?" I wondered.
"Someone has ploughed it, and the way you look at the dirt is not normal. Tide said.
I also squatted down and grabbed a handful of dirt to play with, only to see that it was not delicate soil, nor was it clumped, but in the shape of small balls, as if it had really been ploughed. But what kind of tools can be turned into this, and what kind of crops need such soil?
"Wait a minute, you two, take a look at the ground. Lulu reminded.
When we looked around, we saw that the whole land was rolling, and it was getting more and more violent, as if something was about to come out.
"Be on guard. "I said, I didn't expect any creature to live in the soil, you have to be careful in this case, who knows what will come out.
At this time, I felt that my feet were also shaking, and when I looked down, I saw that the ground under my feet was also like this, but I don't know why, the ones under my feet came out a little later than in the distance.
Something kept popping up in the land in the distance, and the black pressure looked numb, but this underground was too dark, even with the light of the flames, there was no way to see clearly, and there was no way to do it. The black mass slowly spread towards us, more and more.
But the invisibility soon ended, and the black was soon exposed to our view. It was a strange creature, never seen before, it was like a combination of a scorpion and a centipede, with a slender body with dozens of legs, two large crows, and a tail like a scorpion's tail.
"What is this? It looks so nasty. Lulu complained. Also, girls always hate this kind of creature, even if Lulu is an elf, but first of all, she is also a female elf.
"I don't know, it's some kind of monster underground. I said.
"Isn't this nonsense, does it need to be said? But Roy won't be eaten by these guys, right?" said Tide.
"What did you say? Roy was eaten? Don't, woo~" Lulu was about to cry again when she heard this.
"Hey, I'm kidding, don't take it so seriously. Tidal complained helplessly.
"Tidal Tide, you badass, Roy will be fine. Lulu said.
However, I've been thinking about a question, if the tide is really with us for the sake of the holy magic elves, why don't we take this opportunity to leave with Lulu?
Moreover, this time he came down to look for Roy was also the first to be brought up by Tide, why did he care so much about Roy? Is it because Roy's words really touched him when he was in the Holy See before?
I'm weird, but now is not the time to think about this, these monsters in front of us are dangerous, especially since we don't know where they come from, let alone their weaknesses.
