Chapter 158: Cave in the Ground

"Tell me, what's this pile of?" Ximen Guan pointed to the broken Lightspeed One on the table.

"Well, I accidentally got a little bit injured during the battle." Li Xiu spread out his hand and said.

"Accidentally hurt a little?" The corners of Ximenguan's eyes twitched, and he said angrily: "Do you call this a little bit of injury?" It's all scrapped, okay? I've worked so hard to make you a magic costume, but what will happen to you? I don't know how to cherish it at all, so I just wear it out and you scrap it for me, you can really do it. ”

Ximen Guan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "I can understand that the demon costume is damaged, it may be that the demon spirit is too strong and has broken your demon costume, this is not to blame you." But you tell me, how did you do this, the light energy transmission of the magic suit is all blocked, how did you do it? I've never seen anything like this in my life, and the materials of the magic suit can't transmit magic light, it's just a pile of useless garbage. I really admire you so much, it's really hard for you to be able to make the magic costume look like this, it's really not easy. ”

"I ask you, did you premeditate it before, Lightspeed One...... Lightspeed One...... The speed of this scrap is really the speed of light, and I didn't owe you this ......" Ximen Guan's lungs exploded.

The magic costume that was finally made overnight has not really been completed, strictly speaking, it is still a semi-finished product, and it was scrapped by Li Xiu.

"It was an absolute accident." Li Xiu has some reasons, and it is not good to have a hard top with Ximen Guan.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to know how strong the power of the super spirit really was, and forcibly overloaded and fought hard with the super spirit, Lightspeed One would not have been damaged.

If you don't overload, with the performance of Lightspeed One, you can also use your skills to defeat that super spirit, but it's a little more troublesome.

"It's really hard for you to be able to make it like this." Ximen Guan sighed and said: "Forget it, anyway, it's just a piece of garbage, and if it's scrapped, it's a pity, but it's a pity that those materials with demon spirit wood are added." ”

"Old official, you see that my magic costume is broken, why don't you make another set for me?" Li Xiu said softly.

"Made? How to build? The materials are wasted, the magic core is cracked, what can I use to make another set for you? Ximen Guan rolled his eyes.

"Isn't there still a lot of demon spirit wood, as for the demon core, you don't have to worry, I still have it here." Li Xiu said.

"Demon Spirit Wood is such a precious material, how can it be so wasted, although you are the city lord and everything is yours, but you can't be so dictatorial, waste such a good material on those garbage, you are committing a crime. I, Ximen Guan, is a person with professional ethics, and if you ask me to do this kind of thing, I will never agree to it, and I will be thundered if I waste it. Simon immediately refused.

"Old official, don't worry, take a look at this." Li Xiu took out the super spirit gem and the demon core and put them in front of the Ximen official.

"What's so beautiful, even if you break the sky today, I don't have that much spare time......" Ximen Guan said, his eyes saw the magic core in Li Xiu's hand, and he immediately forgot all the words below.

"What's going on with this core? It seems that something is wrong, and what is this crystal, how do you feel that there is a strong light energy in it......" Ximen Guan took the gem from Li Xiu's hand, then pushed the door out of the office, and ran to the laboratory to test it with an instrument.

It didn't take much time for the Ximen official to run back again, his expression was completely different from the stinky face just now, and he said with a smile on his face: "Ahem, Lord of the City, where did your demon core and that gem come from?" ”

"Is my magic costume made?" Li Xiu sat on the office chair of the Ximen official, the old god drank tea and said unhurriedly.

"Build, how can you not make it, you are the lord of the city, everything here is yours, I don't make it for you, who will make it for you." Ximen Guan said with a smile on his face.

"I can't say that, although I am the lord of the city, I am not a dictator, and I can't let you do things that violate professional ethics." Li Xiu took a sip of tea and said.

"How is it possible, a selfless person like you, Lord City Lord, I have never seen a second one in my life, who dares to say that you are a dictator, my Ximen official is the first to stand up and kill him, my professional ethics is to take your needs as the first criterion Lord of the City." Ximen Guan's face was serious, and what he said was awe-inspiring.

"Demon Spirit Wood is such a good material, wouldn't it be too wasteful to make those garbage magic costumes? Or forget it. Li Xiu stood up.

"If you don't waste it, you don't waste it, how can it be wasted, you are the lord of a city, and it is not too much to use any materials on you......" Ximen Guan hurriedly pressed Li Xiu's shoulder and made him sit down again.

"I won't be too embarrassed for you, will I?"

"No, it's not difficult at all."

"How long will it take for me to make my magic suit?"

"Two months." Seeing that Li Xiu didn't speak, the Ximen official gritted his teeth and said, "One and a half months...... One month...... Couldn't be less...... Even if you rush to work day and night, it will take a month, otherwise it will be too late. ”

"That's a month." Li Xiu told him about going to the Golden Gate this time.

"Damn, I finally know why Changshengtian didn't care about the demon costume and would do that to me. There is such a thing as a super-spirit, they must have mastered the technology of the super-spirit at that time, according to what you said, the average S-class magic suit is a scum in front of the super-spirit, which is no wonder. After hearing this, Ximen Guan gritted his teeth and said: "No wonder Lightspeed One is broken like this, it's a pity that I haven't seen that super spirit with my own eyes, it would be nice if I could catch one and come back for experiments." ”

The more Ximen Guan thought about it, the more angry he became, and scolded: "Those bastards in the Immortal Heaven are really short-sighted, the trialist can be super-spiritual, and the technology of the magic costume can also be innovated, and sooner or later he can create a magic suit that can easily kill the super-spirit." Damn, Lao Tzu must make that kind of magic costume, and it will be too late for them to regret it. ”

"Old official, don't worry, I will definitely give you full support in researching magic costumes, and when life in the city is a little better, I will immediately increase the budget for you and buy the best equipment." Li Xiu paused and said, "But before that, you first create my magic costume." ”

"Don't worry, since I know that there is a super-spirit, I definitely can't put you in danger, if those guys who can super-spirit come to the door in the Immortal Heaven, we must have the ability to deal with it. This suit must be built, and it must be built to the highest specifications, and it must be able to deal with super-spirit-level demons and trialists. Ximen Guan said with a serious face: "A month is not enough, you have to give me some more time." ”

"Okay, you can do it boldly, tell me what you lack, and I'll try to find a way." Li Xiu was overjoyed when he heard Ximen Guan say that it should be built according to the highest specifications.

"This magic core happens to be the core of the new magic costume, and I will stay for ......research on the super spirit gem first," Ximen Guan immediately opened his mouth to ask for the super spirit gem.

Li Xiu didn't have any opinions, left the super spirit gem and the magic core to Ximen Guan, and slept well after leaving the laboratory.

It wasn't until it was almost noon the next day that Li Xiu woke up, stretched his waist, and was about to go to eat something, when he heard Chu Jun's voice coming from outside the door.

"Li Xiu, it's terrible." After Chu Jun heard Li Xiu's voice, he pushed the door and walked in, and said with an anxious face.

"What's wrong?" Li Xiu was slightly stunned.

"There's an accident at the construction site, let's go and take a look." Chu Jun said urgently.

"Construction site? What construction site? What's wrong? Li Xiu didn't react for a while, what Chu Jun said.

"It's the Demon Spirit Arena, there was an accident on the construction site over there, Sha Chu said that there was a hole collapsed over there, and a worker fell into it, looking for someone to go down to rescue, but it still didn't come out." Chu Jun explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly.

"Check it out." Li Xiu hurriedly followed Chu Jun out of the door.

When I came to the construction site of the Demon Spirit Arena, I was surrounded by tall iron sheets, and I couldn't see what was going on inside.

After entering through the gate, I saw that the foundation had been laid, and some buildings were already beginning to be built.

It's just that the site has been cleared now, and there is no one on the construction site except Sha Chu.

"The foundation has already been laid, how can it still collapse?" Li Xiu saw Sha Chu coming over and immediately asked.

"The City of Light was originally built by pushing mountains, and the bottom is all hard rocks, and there is no need to lay a foundation, but after dealing with the rocks, some shock-absorbing layers and waterproof layers and other works were done on it, who knew that during the construction last night, a hole suddenly collapsed over there......" Sha Chu said as he took Li Xiu to the cave that collapsed.

The hole is not very big, and the diameter is more than one meter, but when you look down, you don't know how deep it is, and you can't see the bottom when the strong light hits.

"Has anyone gone down?" Li Xiu frowned and asked.

It doesn't matter if there is a bigger hole underneath, then this city of light is equivalent to being built on top of an eggshell, and there is a risk of collapsing at any time, maybe the whole city will collapse at that time, and all their hard work and investment will be in vain.

"Let people go down, but not long after they were put down, the person suddenly broke the contact, pulled the rope up to see, the wire safety cable was broken, and I don't know what happened down there, I didn't dare to let people go down again." Sha Chu took the break of the wire rope and let Li Xiu take a look.

Li Xiu took a closer look at the fracture, it looked very smooth, as if it had been directly cut off by a sharp blade, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Haven't you done detailed exploration before?" Li Xiu asked again.

"I did, I didn't find a hole underneath." Sha Chu thought for a while and said, "Could it be that there is a demon spirit down here?" ”

Li Xiu was also suspicious, the wire rope was not like a broken one, but in that kind of place, it was unlikely that there would be human beings, and the demon spirit was the most likely.

"Sorry for fate, you come and bring the magic costume here." Li Xiu made a call to Ye Xiyuan.

After a while, Ye Xiyuan rushed over with a ghost-faced demon costume, and after knowing what was going on, Ye Xiyuan immediately said: "City Lord, the situation below is unknown, let me go down to investigate first." ”

"Are you okay?" Li Xiu looked at Ye Xiyuan and asked.

"I can." Ye Xiyuan replied firmly, and it could be seen that she was not talking casually, but really wanted to go down to explore the way for Li Xiu.

"Next time, there will be a chance in the future, I may have guessed what the following things are, I have to go down and take a look for myself, to be able to confirm my thoughts." Li Xiu patted Ye Xiyuan on the shoulder, took the ghost-faced demon costume, and jumped down after putting it on.

He didn't know what was down there, just a little skeptical.

He was very puzzled before, why the Red Sand City Lord would spend so much money, and the purpose of opening a mountain and building a city in such a place was not just for a simple trial gate.

However, there were no mineral deposits here, so Li Xiu had never been able to understand what the intention of the Red Sand City Lord was in building the City of Light.

Now that he suddenly discovered such a hole in the ground, he was a little skeptical that it was related to the Red Sand City Lord's choice to build a city here.

The light patterns on the magic suit lit up, allowing Li Xiu to hang in the air and descend slowly, and the fluorescence on his body illuminated the surroundings.

The cave is surrounded by smooth stone walls, that is, a tube that goes straight up and down, and the distance of two or three hundred meters drops, and the diameter of the hole does not widen or narrow at all.

This made Li Xiu very suspicious, maybe this hole was not formed naturally, but was pierced by some kind of force.

"Could it really be the hole that the Red Sand City Lord drilled here? What is he doing here with such a deep hole? Could it be that there is a gem mine down there? "Li Xiu kept descending, and it was already more than 500 meters, and the hole still didn't see the bottom.

The orifice on the top is already the size of a cup, and the dark and narrow environment is very oppressive.

Only the light above the costume illuminates the neighborhood, and even if there is a dark mirror, you can't see what's underneath.

Not because of the darkness, but because there's a lot of depth down there.

When Li Xiu estimated that the depth had exceeded a thousand meters, he still did not reach the end.

"Something is wrong, the workers who came down before, that is, they suddenly lost contact after coming down about 100 meters, which is more than 1,000 meters, why haven't they found anything yet? And also didn't feel a lack of oxygen? Li Xiu was puzzled in his heart, and he wanted to find out even more.

When the depth exceeded 2,000 meters, the straight hole suddenly became open, and a huge underground space appeared.

Li Xiu's eyes scanned the underground space, and he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

This underground space is probably as huge as a city, and the stone roof is like a dome and falls upside down in a hemispherical shape.

In this huge underground space, there was a demon spirit crawling, and the demon spirit body almost occupied half of the underground space, and it was unimaginable, and Li Xiu was inferior to ants in front of it.

Its body was like a crystal like jade, and every scale on its body emitted fluorescence, but outside the demon's body, there was a thick layer of crystals wrapping, as if it was sealed in the crystal.

"It's ...... Kirin? Li Xiu looked at the appearance of the demon spirit, which was very similar to the unicorn in myths and legends.

The dragon's head, lion's body, horsetail, the whole body is covered with crystal-like scales, the top of the head has crystal-like dragon horns, and the claws are also crystal like jade, looking terrifying and mysterious, but there is a certain kind of indescribable bewitching beauty.

On the body of the demon spirit, Li Xiu saw the corpses of two workers, who fell on the crystal wrapped in the demon spirit.

Strangely, their bodies were also wrapped in crystals.

"What the hell is this demon? How did it end up here? Li Xiu looked at the four underground spaces, in addition to the corpses of this demon spirit and the worker, there was also a waterhole in the corner of the underground space.

tomato

Li Xiu carefully looked at the waterhole and found that the waterhole was unfathomable and exuded a cold air.

What made Li Xiu feel strange was that there was a plant growing in the middle of the pool.

Even if Li Xiu was standing on the edge of the pool, the pool water was clearly clear like pure water, but he still couldn't see the bottom, and he didn't know how deep it was.

With Li Xiu's eyesight and the clarity of the water, there should be no problem in looking at it for more than ten meters.

In other words, the waterhole is still more than ten meters deep, and the plant can grow from below, at least ten meters long.

The outcropping area of the water looks like coral, and the snow white crystal glows with a shimmering light.

The reason why Li Xiu thought it was not a coral, but a plant, was because there were five small snow-white flowers blooming on top of the coral-like thing.

The petals are translucent, and they look like they are carved from the finest jade, but they exude a fragrance that is not there.

As far as you can see underwater, coral-like vines stretch down until you can't see them.

Li Xiu didn't know what this was, so naturally he didn't dare to move, and the ghost knew if the crystals on the huge demon spirit would be because of the waterhole or the plant.

After looking at it for a while, he didn't understand what it was, and he walked around the underground space again, but he didn't find anything else.

Li Xiu looked at the demon spirit carefully, and suddenly his eyes froze.

He found that on the forehead of the unicorn-like demon spirit, there was an arrow nailed to the center of the eyebrow.

About half of the body of the arrow is inserted, and the exposed shaft and tail are carved like rubies.

This ruby arrow, which has no brilliance in itself, seems to be more of a work of art than a real arrow used in battle.

However, since it can penetrate the scale armor of demon spirits, it must not be an ordinary thing.

"The Red Sand City Lord chose to build a city here, is it just for this demon? Or is it for the sake of the plants in the waterhole? Li Xiu couldn't figure it out for a while.

After pondering for a moment, Li Xiu flew towards the entrance of the cave where he came, he understood the level of this demon spirit, and he didn't dare to attack it easily.

With such a huge size, even if it is an ordinary S-class demon spirit, its power must be very terrifying, in case it starts to go crazy and collapses this underground space, I don't know if it will affect the City of Light above.

Although it is separated by more than 2,000 meters of rock formation, it is said that it will not have much impact, but no one can say for sure.

What's more, Li Xiu didn't think that this was an ordinary S-class demon spirit, although the fluorescence on its body was very dim, but Li Xiu always felt that this guy was not simple.

In case this guy can be super-spiritual, and he really wants to fight, then it will be a big trouble.

Li Xiu planned to go back and get a mobile phone or something like that first, take pictures of the demon spirit and the plants in the pool, and show them to Ximen Guan or Lao Dao, maybe they know what this thing is.

"Human ......" Li Xiu was about to fly out of the underground space when he suddenly heard a voice in his head.
