Chapter 136

When Lévi returns to the hotel, he finds Carl absent and goes downstairs to ask the shopkeeper, who says that the dark-haired boy had been out not long after Levi and Alexia had gone out. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Where did you go......?"

Lévi thought about walking out, only to turn the corner and find Carl sitting on the shores of Lake Valéli, setting up a drawing board.

At a glance with excellent eyesight, Karl's drawings were very detailed and accurate, as if they had been taken with a shadow crystal, but they were not colored.

But there is a lack of verve, art is originally derived from life and is higher than life, but Carl's paintings are completely reproductions of real scenes, and they look very rigid.

"How did you get here? Levi walked over and said hello.

Carl turned his head and saw that it was Levy, so he put away his sketchpad: "Just relax." ”

Lévy looked Karl up and down, "How much effort did you put into that picture?" ”

Carl doesn't know how to art, Levi still knows this, just now Carl obviously used high-intensity computing power to accurately memorize every inch of scenery in his field of vision, and then forcibly control the right hand of painting, in order to achieve such an effect.

"Uh. Carl smiled awkwardly, "About 350 Trier's energy......"

"......" Levi looked at Carl with a confused expression.

He couldn't understand what Carl was saying.

"It's almost the cost of about 2,000 times for your warriors to swing their swords. Karl used a metaphorical object.

2,000 swings is not a small number......

"Alexia will definitely criticize you when she comes back. Levi said.

"yes, what about Alexia?" Karl looked behind Levi.

"I didn't find my weapon. Levi spread his hands, "But the captain may have to add a ranged weapon." I'm busy now, and I'll be out in a day. ”

"Uh-huh? Carl was stunned, then reacted.

"What did you guess?" Levi asked with a pained look on Carl's face.

Carl shook his head: "It's nothing, I just thought, maybe Master Leopold saw Tvellet...... Well, that's probably what happened. ”

"Well, you're amazing. Levi said speechlessly.

"Since Alexia won't be back until a day's time. Carl whispered to Levi, "Would you be interested in accompanying me on a trip to the Cave of Death?"

If Alexia had been there, she wouldn't have allowed these two guys to run wild, and if it weren't for the fact that the Remona Monastery was very likely to be rewarded and almost dangerous, Alexia wouldn't even have gone to the underground labyrinth.

But the cave of death, Carl just wanted to see it, and this time suffocated him. Alexia will definitely not let go.

“...... There is a head. Levi thought for a moment and nodded.

This goods is also a master who fears that the world will not be chaotic.

Carl is curious and wants to let go of the wind, and Levi just wants to do more to make the trip more exciting.

The two found a small teahouse and sat down to talk about preparations.

"The Cave of Death is the one that the Iron Thorn Mercenary Group explored two days ago. ”

Carl said and took out a piece of grid paper for designing the magic circuit, looked at it and flipped to the back, and the quills quickly sketched a simple map, Lake Valéli, the town's residential areas, commercial areas, farmland, and several main roads, which were quickly represented by Carl with squares and various signs.

"According to this scale...... The entrance to the Cave of Death should be in the ...... This location. Karl spread his thumb and forefinger, measured it, then moved it back and forth a few times, and put pen to paper.

"Tsk, thirty-one kilometers. Levi visually surveyed the length of the path, "It's going to take us more than four hours to go back and forth." ”

It moves much slower through mountains and forests than on flat land.

"The Mercenary Guild estimates that this is a silver-level cave. Karl said as he supplemented the terrain on the map, "In other words, the strongest undead in it is the silver level, and there are not many others, so they can be explored in one day." ”

After Carl went out today, he first went to the Mercenary Guild to look at the mission, and then went to the lake to draw the scene.

Lévy looked at the linked list: "It's ten o'clock now, we'll go now, the time is twelve o'clock to one o'clock, explore for six to seven hours, and we'll be back tonight." ”

Karl nodded: "That's right, if nothing else." ”

"Is it ready?" Levi confirmed.

"Eight iron drills, six bundles of thick rope of one hundred meters, two crystal lamps, and six magic crystals with a capacity of two hundred trier. Carl touched his nose, "I bought all the supplies at double rates, and there are some antidotes and healing potions or something, you should have a lot of them." ”

The lamp is for Levi, and Carl himself has candlelight and dark vision, and does not need a crystal lamp, unless entering a special forbidden area.

"There are still a lot of potions. Levi nodded, "Let's go, then." ”

Just go.

Climbing over the mountains and forests is not a difficult task for the lowest-level mercenaries like the Iron Thorn Flower Mercenary Group, because there are actually not many dangerous magical beasts in the mountains and forests near Bluestone Town, and it is purely unlucky for them to encounter the black blind man.

Not even more so for Lévy and Carl.

More than two hours later, the two of them came to the cave that the Iron Thorn Flower Mercenary Group had explored.

The Cave of Death looks no different from a normal cave, that is, a large hole appears on the hillside that slopes downward, and the key to distinguishing the difference between the Cave of Death and the ordinary cave is that a small white flower grows outside the Cave of Death, which grows by absorbing the energy of death, and can be used as a raw material for paralyzing potions after collection.

Carl gathered a few of these little flowers, called the Pale Reaper—a terrible name because of the abundance of them in areas where mass death occurred—crushed them into an empty test tube, and then dripped in a drop of clear liquid, which, when on contact with the petals, produced a popping sound like snow falling on a fire.

"What are you doing?" asked Levi curiously.

"Just to confirm. Carl explained, "The Pale Death's petals contain a small amount of death. What I just dripped into is the spring water of the Moonlight Spring, which is collected under the full moon and contains more life force than normal nights, and will have a neutralizing reaction with the power of death. ”

"Are you sure these little flowers are the Pale Reaper?" Levi nodded knowingly.

"Yes, now we can confirm that the Iron Thorn Mercenary Group is not in the wrong place. Carl said, looking at the entrance to the cave that was one and a half high.

"Let's go, let's go, let's take out the undead lord here today, and it can be regarded as a good thing for the townspeople. Levi pulled out a four-foot-long sword, and his momentum changed dramatically in an instant.

If before Levi was like a lazy lion, now, the lion has woken up.

"I thought you continued to use a sword. Carl glanced at Levi with some surprise.

"Haha. Levi laughed, "I'm not the kind of fool who gets killed when it comes to a pinch, but I didn't use a sword before because the captain is here, why should I play a sword when I can paddle." ”

"Yes, yes, you're all right, let's go. ”

Levi walked in front with a crystal lamp in his hand, the principle of this thing is actually a crystal that has solidified candlelight, contained in a concave mirror structure with concentrating light, which can send light forty or fifty meters away in the dark, which is better than ordinary candlelight.

After entering the cave, there is a 20-degree downward slope, and the irregular ground is difficult to walk, but with Levi's balance there is no need to worry at all, after Carl released the feather fall technique on himself, even if he trips, he has a long reaction time, so the two of them walked smoothly.

After walking more than two hundred meters, Levi leaned against the wall and turned a corner, waved his hand to stop Carl, and then illuminated the front with crystal energy, and a pitch-black vertical hole appeared in front of the two of them.

Lévy kicked a rock downward, and soon the echo was heard.

"Rub, more than forty meters deep. Levi said with some pain.

"Well, the exact result is 43.86 meters, and no matter how accurate it is, the environmental impact is too big to calculate. Karl paused for a moment and said, "But because of this pit, the undead didn't gush out. ”

With Levy's physical fitness, even if he gives up his defense and falls more than forty meters, as long as his head hits the ground, it is basically a minor injury, the key is that in the dark, it is a headache to not see the landing point clearly, what should I do if I hit a raised stone and break the stone, what should I do if I am frightened by the undead?

All of the above is a mouthpiece.

When exploring, no matter what the strength, caution is a must.

"I'll look at the situation below. Carl said to Levy.

"Uh-huh. Levi moved out of the way and let Carl get closer to the edge of the pit.

Carl unleashed his mental power and swept down to find several weak energy aggregates.

"There are undead down there, but they're all of the lowest level. ”

Opening his eyes, Carl took out an iron chisel and a roll of hemp rope, and inserted the iron chisel into the ground.

Levi held the rope and paddled downward, borrowed force twice from the rock wall, and landed smoothly.

Several skeletons heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, and turned their eyes around, Levi laughed, and the figure disappeared in an instant behind the outermost skeleton soldiers, the big sword was picked up like a heavy hammer, only to hear a muffled sound, and the skeleton soldiers who were slapped by the big sword were instantly smashed into a pile of broken bones and splashed out, and four of the relatively intact bones flew straight towards the heads of the other four skeleton soldiers.

There were four consecutive sounds of eggshells being smashed, and the four skeleton soldiers were directly blown off their heads.

Five kills with one sword.

Karl also landed with the feather fall technique, lit the candlelight technique, and the surroundings lit up.

A gray-brown rock wall with a passage more than two meters high in front of it.

Carl scraped some powder from the rock wall and stored it in empty test tubes, and Lévy peeked at his test tube rack, which saw more than a dozen of them, and more than one group.

"Why is there no Pale Death in the cave anymore. Levi asked as he waited for Carl to gather the materials.

"Because there's no sun here. Karl said as he walked, "It's amazing that plants that absorb the energy of death need sunlight. ”

"yes. Levi nodded.

Moving on, there were a few forks in the road, but Carl managed to figure out the right path and didn't hit a dead end once. Some of the skeletons and carrion encountered along the way were not Levi's enemies, and Carl didn't even see Levi's movements many times, and those bronze-level undead flew out of place and disintegrated into two halves in mid-air.
