Continuing eastward, there is hardly any trace of civilization in the forest, only the most primitive reckless atmosphere.

However, Xia Duo and Nia still did not return, but continued to travel east, during which the two of them chatted, and Nia also began to help Xia Duo explore the geology in the forest.

"Do you think it's really possible to find Mithril Ore in the Green Bead Forest?" Nia asked curiously.

"Who knows! I'm just trying it out, and what I really want to make sure is not the Mithril Mine, but the weak point of the leyline! ”

Shado doesn't hide his true intentions, in fact, this kind of thing needs to be known to Nia as well, and if Drow doesn't go well in the underground war, it may not be impossible to break out of the surface.

Within the Great Xia Territory and the Saville Territory, not only the apprentices of the Tower of Time have been inspected by the mission, but Xia Duo himself has personally explored many times and has not found any weak points in the leylines.

However, the Great Xia Territory and the Saville Territory only occupy a very small part of the vast area of the southern forest, and if there is absolutely no weak point in the leyline, even if he lies to himself, Xia Duo can't believe it.

But the exploration of this large area is undoubtedly not an easy task, not that it is difficult, but that the forest is dangerous, and unless it is filled with human life, only those who can really walk freely in the forest can complete the task relatively safely.

Such a person is basically limited to at least a mid-level mage or above, or a very senior adventurer, otherwise ordinary people can enter the forest at will, let alone conduct geological exploration, and it will be considered luck not to be taken away by wild beasts.

……

Referring to the real problem that Drow is very likely to appear, Nia couldn't help but feel a little worried, "If Drow does appear in the South, will we be able to handle it?" ”

"It's difficult, even if the Tower of Time exists, it will be difficult for us alone to stop the drow who is almost crazy."

For the last battle of Drow's defeat from Comanso, Xia Duo heard enough details from Iolem's side, when Drow's god of vengeance himself appeared, if it weren't for the elven god who also descended might, maybe Comanso would no longer exist.

But even so, the battle between the two sides resulted in the complete destruction of the underground passage in the Dragonspine Mountains, and several High Mages died in Komanso.

In that battle, Comanso should be said to have done his best, at least on the surface, under the command of the crowned king, all the upper families will invest their own strength.

Coupled with the main god of the elves, this is just a miserable victory, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to even resist in the southern realm.

But thankfully, even if the underground passage in the Dragonspine Mountains is destroyed, it is still a weak point in the leyline, and the passage can be reopened.

In this case, it may be more attractive in the eyes of Drow than the southern side.

Of course, it is definitely not possible to be so passive or lucky, and the real way to completely eliminate hidden dangers is to make yourself strong as soon as possible.

In the case that it is difficult to make a big breakthrough in individual strength, it can only be found on the Mither energy core.

At the same time, prevention in advance cannot be ignored, just like what Xia Duo is doing now, although it may not have much effect on resisting Zhuoer, but at least it can be made in advance, so that this side has time to arrange a strategic retreat.

"Did you find anything?" Shado asked Nia.

"Not yet."

"That's good!"

……

After all, human beings are a group of social creatures, and the primeval forest certainly has places worth exploring, but this kind of place without any traces of civilization is not suitable for long-term human activities after all.

Even after just a short hike, Xia Duo gradually felt a little tired, and although he could find some new foods along the way, these were not enough to impress him anymore.

Not only him, but Nia is also paying more and more attention to geological exploration rather than the forest itself, which may be stimulated by the Drow crisis, but more because these pristine forest landscapes are not attractive enough for the two of them.

\b "Chardo, there is a discovery! ”

"What?!"

Suddenly hearing Nia's exclamation, Xia Duo's heart suddenly rose, he was afraid that Niya would say that he had found that the leylines were weak, so he hurriedly asked:

"What did you find? Is it the leyline's weak point? ”

"No, the leyline is weak, I seem to have found a Mithril mine!"

Niya seemed to be a little unsure of paying attention, but her voice still involuntarily raised a little, pointing to the southeast direction and said to Xia Duo: "It's right there, about three miles!" ”

Hearing the specific direction, Xia Duo hurriedly projected the perception field over, and used the perception field to cast the [Infrasound Detection] spell against the underground of this area.

In an instant, an unusually familiar feeling arose!

Xia Duo sorted out the echo feedback data of the Mithril vein in [Projection Plane: Remnants of the Empire], and even summarized the possible feedback characteristic model of the Mithril vein.

The feedback from this probe, although it was different from the echo feedback data of the Mithril Mine that he detected in the Rayson Domain, fell firmly in the feedback characteristic model.

This discovery made Xia Duo happy, even if he couldn't find the Mithril vein, he could improve the model, and it could be regarded as a contribution to the next successful discovery!

"Let's go and have a look!"

With that, Xia Duo urged Abel to take off, and Nia also commanded Pamela to follow, and the two Pegasus flew at a speed that was not satisfied, even if they carried people, two or three miles would be a matter of minutes.

……

But when he actually arrived at his destination, Xia Duo looked at the trees below that were no different from the rest of the forest, but he hesitated a little.

It's not that there will always be any anomalies around the Mithril Mine, but as a lord with a huge demand for Mithril, there will always be a little bit of foresight when facing a suspected Mithril Mine.

"I'll go down there and take a look, and you can help me guard it up there."

"Okay."

Hearing Niya's promise, Xia Duo quickly swept away the distractions, directly used the bloodline ability, and the incarnated gas floated downward, touching the ground and quickly blending into it.

However, this is not a bloodline ability, but a [Stone Walking Technique] derived from Zhuoer, of course, Xia Duo prefers to call it [Earth Escape Technique].

From the surface all the way down, following the instructions of the previous [Infrasound Detection], Xia Duo soon came to an area less than ten meters underground.

Further down here, the dirt begins to gradually turn into rock, like a juvenile mountain that has not grown to the surface.

The area through which he traveled didn't mind whether it was mud or stone, so Xia Duo continued to descend, about two meters, before collecting some stone samples with the help of his carry-on space.

……

Back on the ground, before Xia Duo could speak, Nia took the initiative, "This side has been explored far away, let's go back today!" ”

Of course, Xia Duo knew that Nia had ended this hike early because of this suspected Mithril mine, and he himself was very interested in this result, so he followed Nia's words:

"yes, okay."
