Chapter 177: Clay Man

"Keep going, there's no turning back, just pay attention. ”

Nell lifted his spirits, and then led the team to move forward, much to the surprise of Caton and the others who were hiding in the shadows.

Caton knew that these passages were figured out, and the other party could know how to get out of here through the wind magician, so Caton was also prepared to wait for them to leave before continuing to mine.

When the excavator was working, the noise from the ground was very loud, and even if it was okay for the secret spies to bring the tools to shield their hearing, the other people who came in would definitely go there to check it out.

And the direction of the passage they were going to enter the cave had been dug up, so Caton wasn't worried about what they would find.

The magicians had only just left, and the Assassin Legion had come down.

The Assassins led by the Assassin Captain were also not afraid of the dark, and under the training of the Violet Sanctuary, even if it was so dark that they could not see even a single light, the Assassins could discern the direction through other perceptions.

The Assassins had the best hearing, stronger than any other perception, and after entering the dark and quiet underground, the Assassin captain picked up a piece of rubble and threw it away, and an echo echoed the nearby sounds.

"Go this way. ”

The Assassin captain chose a random path, and there were several openings under this hole, but the Assassins did not have the air perception of the wind mage, so they could not find the way.

However, the random choice of the assassins made Caton's face change, there was an excavation truck in the direction they were going, and although the captain of the assassins did not use any equipment to take care of their faces, but looking at their steady steps, he also knew that their hearing ability was very strong, otherwise they would not dare to enter such a deep hole.

And as he continued to go deeper, the Assassin Captain also deliberately increased his footsteps, so that from the position of this sound sensing channel, although the sound of this aggravated footsteps was not high. But in this extremely quiet underground, this trace of sound is enough.

Watching them keep advancing, Caton already had the idea of killing them, even if they were assassins of the Violet Empire, in this case, it would be very embarrassing for Wang Chang to find himself and others stealing mines here.

Not to mention Wang Chang's side, as the leader of the spies, if he was discovered stealing things, wouldn't he be embarrassed as the first spy chief of the Blue Spirit Empire?

Caton made a few gestures to the secret spy behind him, under the effect of night vision devices. The secret spy immediately understood what Caton meant, and then lurked over.

The assassins were not careless, in this bottomless underground, the magicians would definitely use magic to illuminate their faces, and when they found the light, they would be able to find the magicians, so although the assassins were on full alert, their pace was not slowing down.

When the many Assassins saw a red light coming from them, all the Assassins immediately stopped and scattered.

This is the junction of a passage. Except for a narrow passage, the others lead to the various excavation vehicles, so the secret spies are here to guard the entrance to the cave.

And this red light flashed for a while, which was also emitted by the night vision device, mainly to attract their attention.

When I saw them on guard. The two spies lurked secretly from behind, their blades slashing through the necks of the two assassins before disappearing into the dark passage.

"Be careful. ”

When the gore came, the Assassin captain immediately found out. If it weren't for the crowd getting closer, the Assassin captain would have immediately thrown a large number of hidden weapons at the back.

When the group turned around to find the two Assassins lying on the ground, bleeding and shaking, the Assassin captain knew that they were finished.

"There are other people down here. The magicians don't know if they've encountered this group of people as well. ”

From the wounds of the two slain assassins, the Assassin captain immediately recognized that it was an attack by a sharp blade and not an attack by a demonic beast, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

The other Assassins also drew their daggers and crossbows to guard against this, and one of the Assassins opened the mage in his hand and illuminated the entire passage.

Before, I also wanted to kill the magicians in the dark, but now in this situation, the other party is obviously more comfortable with the darkness than himself, so it is more beneficial for him to look at it.

When he saw that there were passages in all directions, but there was no one in sight, the Assassin captain made a few gestures and told everyone that the people in the underground must be assassins-type characters like himself and others, otherwise it would be impossible to assassinate his own assassin under the noses of everyone.

And since they are all assassins, they can't speak, they can only act by gestures.

Following the Captain's gesture, several Assassins dispersed through the passages in groups, while the Captain remained at the intersection, waiting for them to send a message to him.

The Assassin Captain, on the other hand, did not do nothing, but quietly felt the movements of the Assassins in those passages, and if they were attacked, the Assassin Captain would immediately go towards the passages.

And as the groups of Assassins continued to go deeper, they found that this place was extended in all directions, and several groups of Assassins had met each other, and it was obvious that if they couldn't remember the route here, they would definitely get lost here.

At this time, a group of Assassins who had not encountered their companions went deeper and deeper into the bottom, and found a metallic sheen that reflected the light of their illumination.

When they wondered how there was metal here, they took a closer look and saw the excavation truck with the unique style of the Blue Spirit Empire.

"Is this ......?"

The assassins realized that an equal number of secret spies had reached behind them, and the daggers pierced their hearts in an instant, killing them with a single blow.

"Here it is. ”

The Assassin captain immediately sensed that something was wrong, and ran towards the hole, and his voice echoed quickly through the passage, and the other Assassins immediately heard it in the extremely quiet cavern, and then ran quickly.

At this moment, the fast-moving Assassin captain sensed a danger approaching, and slashed the dagger in his hand with all his strength.

Bite~~

With a crisp sound, the Assassin Captain didn't expect the enemy's weapon to be so sharp and the enemy's strength so great, he actually cut off his dagger and then assassinated himself.

When the Assassin captain was unwilling to fall, Caton gestured to his side, and many secret spies moved quickly, assassinating all the Assassins in the mine.

The magicians who escaped from the assassin's pursuit also heard the movement behind, it was too quiet here, it was impossible for the magicians not to hear it, and under the roar of the assassin captain, the magicians accelerated their pace and moved forward quickly.

When they came to the mouth of the passage that had been accidentally dug by the excavation truck, they looked at this passage with obviously different geology, and it was obvious that this passage was formed naturally, and it was obviously different from the ones that they had just walked through that seemed to be excavated by man.

"Lord Neel, it looks like we're out of the way of those Assassins, let's get out of here. ”

The wind mage who led the way watched Nell stop, and many people felt very uncomfortable with the oppressive feeling in this underground, so they all wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

As they had traveled some distance, they realized that the passage was also very long, and the wind mages noticed that something was wrong.

"Lord Neer, there seems to be something strange ahead, and I feel a different aura. ”

Under the reminder of the wind magician, everyone immediately became nervously alert, originally thinking that they were out of danger, but it seemed that they had come to a dangerous place again.

"Do you feel what?" asked Niele, also frowning.

"No, it's just that the aura is weird, obviously not human, but it doesn't look like a monster. The wind mage didn't know what to say, but he didn't want to move forward.

"Let's go, we only have this way, those assassins have all died in that passage, we have to turn back, I'm afraid we will be like them, we can only go all the way to the dark. ”

Nell also had no choice, he didn't expect it to be so complicated, he knew that he was fighting with the assassins near the entrance of the cave, and the more he came to the depths, the more depressed Nell felt.

"Okay, everyone be ready to attack, and if I see danger, I will alert you as soon as possible. ”

Under the guidance of the wind magician, everyone moved forward again, but at this time everyone was nervously guarded, no one wanted to relax, once attacked, it would be fatal.

As we went deeper, the originally dry passage became sticky, and it was obvious that there might be a water source in front of it, which would affect the soil quality here.

And as they continued to move forward, they suddenly saw a huge underground cave, and there were holes one by one in these caves, like a monster cave but not a monster cave, because they saw a subhuman race similar to humans.

"Isn't this a clay figure?

Nell, who was very knowledgeable, immediately remembered the encyclopedia of races on the continent that he had stumbled across in the city's library inventory, which contained information about various races on the continent before the war began.

One of them is the Clay Figures, who live with dwarves or goblins in race wars, and prefer to live long and underground.

While living with the dwarves, the Clay Figures can build comfortable underground dwellings for the dwarves, as well as help them with some simple forging.

While living with the goblins, the clay figurines are also able to help the goblins work and build.

Although the combat power of the clay people is not strong, they are particularly difficult to eliminate, they are not afraid of physical attacks, and their bodies can be restored even if they are broken, but they are especially afraid of ice and fire attacks, in the face of these two magical attacks, the clay people can't resist at all.
