Chapter 107: The Vanishing Tinas (2nd Update)
The environment under the cliff was even worse than expected, starting from the position where Tinas jumped, Lin Lei had been down more than 100 meters, and in his sight, there were neither the "common" horizontal tree forks in martial arts novels, nor half of the cave cracks.

The bottom is three hundred meters away from the top of the cliff, just a pile of fine grass and stones, dark and cold, slightly damp, full of plants that look like fungi and have strange colors and appearances, as big as a human head, small as a palm.
Lin Lei walked all over the kilometer radius, not only did he not find Tinasi's body, but judging from the integrity of the surface plants, there were no traces of "high-altitude projectiles" recently.
Could it be that Tinas's "corpse" disappeared out of thin air?
All the way down, Lin Lei didn't feel the strong wind on the cliff, and the search within a kilometer range was the limit of Lin Lei's imagination.
In the valley, there is nothing that Lin Lei thinks is dangerous, and the largest fungus plant is the size of a human head, mild and fragrant, non-toxic and harmless, and there is no legendary man-eating flower, meat eating vine, thousand-year-old dryad and the like.
The largest animal is a small thing like a cat, with white fur, only the size of a palm, a small coward, and hides when he sees Lin Lei. Lin Lei grabbed one and looked carefully, and found that this guy didn't even have many claws, his teeth were fine but not sharp, and he looked like a vegetarian, and he didn't have the strength to bite his fingers into his mouth.
There were no rivers, no caves, and Lin Lei walked almost every inch of the surrounding land, but still found nothing.
The canyon was just a large crack in the peak, not much at the bottom, and there was no other way in and out of the world except for climbing up and down.
After a short half a day's effort, Lin Lei had already walked all over the canyon, there were no living people, no corpses could be found, it seemed that Tinas had just disappeared out of thin air, and he couldn't even figure out whether he was dead or alive.
Lin Lei sat down on the ground in a daze, and as soon as he sat down, he suddenly jumped up, ran to the vine rope, climbed to the top of the cliff with his hands and feet, and quickly ran out of Xilian Mountain in the direction of Xifu City.
Half a day has passed, the battle has long been over, looking from afar, Xifu City is still calm, and on the city wall, standing vaguely, are still Terran warriors.
But along the way, there were traces of fierce battles everywhere, and the corpses of demon dwarves and terrans could be seen everywhere, many of which were mutilated, and the entire Xilian Mountain Range, within a few kilometers of the Demon Eye Fortress, was like a hell on earth.
The demon dwarves haven't even started cleaning the battlefield yet, which can only show that under repeated attrition, the demon dwarves have even been overstretched in cannon fodder troops, and the humans have not taken the opportunity to capture the fortress and patrol the mountains and forests, which shows that they are also powerless.
Obviously, this is a lose-lose situation.
In just half a month, an inexplicable local war began so inexplicably, with more than 200,000 casualties on both sides, and countless elites of the two races fell, but the human race, who has always claimed to know everything, still doesn't know what it is for.
The battle between the Western Regions and the Demon Dwarves has lasted for hundreds of years, and the roots are easy to understand.
The Rune Forest is the back garden of the demon dwarves, and countless jungle creatures and monsters feed countless demon dwarves. They live in the place where there are magic crystals, which are the most indispensable strategic resources in the development of human magical civilization, and in order to obtain more magic crystals, humans need to conquer this forest.
In the eyes of the demon dwarves, humans are a delicious meat, but they are dispensable.
To humans, the demon dwarves are cruel and tyrannical, and to the demon dwarves, humans are the most hated invaders of their homeland.
But the demon dwarves and the Southern Regions are not too inevitably implicated.
For more than a hundred years, the area developed by the Southern Regions was nothing more than a very marginal corner of the vast and boundless Talisman Forest, where the Demon Dwarves hardly operated, and there was no need to send a large army to invade at all.
And the geographical environment of the Southern Regions is not a pleasant paradise for the demon dwarves who naturally like the dark, even if there is no human existence in the territory of more than 10 million square kilometers in the southern regions, the demon dwarves will not go to the southern regions to live.
This is really a weird war, but unfortunately, the demon dwarves and humans don't have a common language at all, otherwise, Lin Lei really wants to catch a few demon dwarves to ask, what the hell is everything about this dog's *day, what is it for?
It was getting late, and Xifu City was immersed in a sense of sadness and solemnity, but Lin Lei didn't even have time to care about whether Johndy and the others would come back safely, so he ran directly to the camp and looked for Yingdila in a hurry.
"Tinas isn't dead?"
Hearing Yingdila's answer, Lin Lei was pleasantly surprised and full of doubts.
After listening to Lin Lei's narration of the whole incident, Indira took out a delicate box from the space equipment and opened it, revealing a small bead the size of a thumb, which looked healthy and cute.
"This is Tinasi's 'Pearl of Life', the color and form are normal, and I don't see anything wrong at all. Seeing that Lin Lei didn't understand much, Indira explained: "The form represents the body, and the color represents the soul. This is the highest form of the 'Pearl of Life', and no matter where Tinas is in the Forgotten Land, no matter how far away it is, it will never lose contact. ”
Speaking of this, Indira released her spiritual power onto the "Pearl of Life", and after a moment of careful sensing, she said: "According to the performance of the 'Pearl of Life', Tinas is still within a hundred miles, or Xilian Mountain, or it may be in the Talisman Forest, but no matter where she is, she is safe for the time being." ”
"And where is she going?"
Lin Lei fell into deep thought, constantly recalling various details in his head, trying to find out what might have been missed.
"Tinas is majoring in the dual system of time and soul, these two magic departments, there are already a lot of mysterious and weird places, if you major in the dual system, there may be more places that the current magic research can't understand, this point, I'm afraid even she herself is only half-understood, I guess, the role of 'Yuan Soul Liquid', for Tinasi, may be different from ordinary people......"
Indira majored in the wind system, and her research on time and soul magic was not in-depth, let alone a dual major, and after inferring for a long time, she couldn't find a reasonable possibility to come out.
The final conclusion is that Tinas is safe anyway, and all other inferences are not certain.
But in any case, as long as people live and live safely, it is more important than anything else, and all that can be done now is to wait, and when Tinas herself returns, she will naturally understand everything.
In the midst of the gains and losses, Lin Lei returned to the barracks of the Johnnedy team, and when he saw that there was no one in the room, he walked to the medical camp.
In this battle, the most tragic and heavy casualties occurred in the raid brigade, and Lin Lei was not too worried about the safety of Johnnedy and others.
With the combat power of hundreds of demon warriors at that time, even if you don't count the 50,000 cannon fodder soldiers in the military department, as long as there are no troll dwarves, the battle situation will not be one-sided.
Sure enough, the members of Johnnedy's team had just returned, and they were resting in the medical camp at this time, including Johnnedy, a total of twelve, not one of them was missing, and no major injuries were found.
Linda was also among them, but she couldn't see Lin Lei come back together, which made Linda's pretty face suddenly pale and crying, and she didn't even have the courage to ask Johnnedy for a while, and Johnnedy was busy taking care of her injured companion, and she couldn't notice Linda's drastic change for a while.
It wasn't until she inadvertently raised her eyes and saw Lin Lei Shi outside the door that Linda burst into tears and laughed, but she was embarrassed to throw herself into her arms like last time.
After this battle, the demon dwarf seemed to have temporarily stopped, except for still sending cannon fodder to patrol Xilian Mountain, there was no other action, and everything returned to the state of a few days ago.
The days of waiting were very boring, and Lin Lei could only temporarily forget the anxiety and troubles in his heart by concentrating on cultivation.
Entering the spiritual world again, Lin Lei suddenly found that at some point, the appearance of the little guy had changed a lot......
