Chapter 119: The Mountains Are White

Before Thor could figure it out, Bill walked back in front of Byron.

For unknown reasons, Bill suddenly became interested in Byron's mission and offered to travel with Byron.

Saul initially suspects that it might be because of himself.

But after those two exchanges, Bill never spoke to Saul again.

Makes his suspicions seem a little self-defeating.

Byron was initially hesitant about Bill's proposal.

It's just that considering that the Hanging Hand Valley has been a little abnormal recently, and the periphery doesn't seem to be very safe, he still agreed.

After all, the three third-level apprentices acted together, as long as they didn't fight among themselves, they could basically walk sideways on the periphery of the Hanging Hand Valley.

"Our mission is to catch an evil spirit." Byron first declared the demand.

"You catch the evil spirit, we pick up the corpse, just right. You might even be able to pick up some relics from your predecessors in the cave. Bill raised an eyebrow, looking obedient and cooperative.

There are two more third-level apprentices in the team, which is still beneficial to Thor's plan to catch evil spirits.

Before leaving, Bill casually threw the four men he had just killed into a hole in the ground.

Even if the corpse is destroyed.

Everyone set off and continued deeper into the Valley of the Hanging Hands, and the wood spiders were even more crowded, but fortunately there were no fat people in this group of wizard apprentices.

Along the way, there are more and more holes in the ground.

Some of these holes are as thin as small arms, and some are three or four meters in diameter. Most of them are more or less bottomless.

When driving the Wood Spider, be careful not to get your spider legs into a hole in the ground.

"Many of these underground caves were made by wizards for exploration, because there is no overall plan, and the holes are as you like, and the underground is criss-crossed, and it is easy to get lost." Byron carefully piloted the Wood Spider while chatting with Thor.

At the same time, he was also warning the two Bills, who are not familiar with this place, not to run around.

After walking for an hour, Nick turned on his perceptron from time to time to check for spirits nearby.

But it may be because everyone is still on the periphery of the Hanging Hand Valley, or the spirits are not very active during the day, and the perceptron has not responded.

"Is this thing good or not?" Bill curled his finger and tapped twice on the perceptron's mirror.

As soon as Byron frowned, Nick suddenly exclaimed, "Found traces of the spirits!" ”

Thor leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a vague shadow on the mirror.

The reason why it was certain that it was a spirit and not another reflection was because the shadow was a very flat human form, without the distortion of other images in the mirror.

But this shadow is not the same as what Thor had seen alone before.

The shadow he saw alone, although he couldn't see his facial features, was very close to the mirror, as if he was standing behind Thor.

The color of the image is also dark gray and almost black, unlike the current blur, the color is light gray, like a puff of light smoke, which will disperse at any time.

Byron controlled the wood spider to reduce his speed, glanced sideways, and said with certainty: "That's right, it's a spirit, but it's so vague, it should have passed by in a day or two." ”

Bill finally got interested, "A day or two ago? Could that be crawling out of the ground? ”

Wright sat on the back of the mirror, unable to see anything, but it didn't prevent him from joining in the fun, "Bill, your finger is pretty good, do you want to knock again?" ”

Thor was startled, afraid that Bill would be stirring again. This kind of instrument is messed up, and it has to be re-debugged, which is very time-consuming.

Luckily, Bill heard the sights of spirits, and his attention had shifted from the perceptron.

He didn't wait for the wood spider to stop, and then jumped out of the window.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's find a hole in the ground now."

But Byron ignored him, and found a relatively flat ground to stop near the cliff not far away.

This is their temporary position.

Thor helped Nick lift the perceptron down and place it on the ground, clapping his hands and looking around.

There are many more caves here than near their original camp. It's like they're on a huge cheese floor, and there are caves on the cliffs that lead to them.

After setting up the new camp, Byron began to arrange the mission.

"I suggest that everyone disperse and look for caves with traces of pollution, and when they come back, summarize their findings and choose the one that is most likely to enter."

But Bill jumped out against it.

"Neither Wright nor I are good at observing spirits. If you look for it like this, you may not know if you miss the clues. If you want me to say, let's just find a hole in the ground together, keep going down, go deep enough, and you will definitely meet evil spirits. ”

But Byron was a little worried, "If you go too far, you may encounter an enemy that we can't deal with." ”

Nick and Thor are both second-level apprentices, especially Thor, who has only mastered a Tier 1 sorcery and lacks the ability to protect himself.

"If you can't deal with it, run away." Bill said nonchalantly, "Byron, you're just acting too conservatively, so it took so long to advance to level three." ”

I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Bill slapped Thor on the shoulder, "If you want to be a wizard, you can't be afraid of danger." ”

Thor had seen Bill melt corpses with his purple smoke, and now he was a little uncomfortable pressed by him.

But the diary didn't speak, so it shouldn't have been done in secret. I don't think Bill will suddenly attack him in front of Byron.

After some consideration, Byron finally agreed to Bill's proposal.

"What you said makes sense, then let's act together and go straight underground. However, it is still necessary to leave one person in the camp to observe the movement of the perceptron, and let Nick and Thor take turns to be in charge. ”

He pulled Thor aside by arranging a task for him, "Things were still a little weird before. Tidal storms, if they do occur, rarely reach the entrance to Taute Valley. So I plan to catch the evil spirit as soon as possible, complete the mission and leave. ”

Thor nodded.

"Of course, we will also help you find the right spirit in the middle of the process, but there may not be time for you to study slowly."

Finding a more complete spirit body for himself is just incidental, and since the situation here is a little wrong, Thor naturally won't force it.

Besides, this trip is a lot of credits for completing the task, and Thor is not too greedy.

"I'll figure it out myself. Don't think too much about my spirits. ”

Thor thought to himself, it's a big deal, please Nick shatter the spirit and strengthen his hands again. A little wasteful at best.

The task was reassigned, and it was already afternoon, but everyone didn't plan to waste the day, so after a hurried meal, the exploration team was ready to set off.

The man in charge of the camp today is Nick.

Wright clasped his hands on his chest and looked at the dense hole in front of him, with a tangled expression on his pale face.

"We ...... From which opening? ”

Bill slapped his face, "It's all in-depth anyway, just choose the nearest one!" ”

He pointed to a hole in the ground with a diameter of nearly two meters five meters in front of him.

Byron chose a hole with a diameter of about three meters and some people's traces around it, "It's still the kind of cave that has been explored, and the space is large, so it is convenient for everyone to move together." ”

Thor didn't immediately join the discussion, thinking of Byron's initial method of following the trail of contamination to find spirits, and his heart moved.

Observing pollution, isn't that what he's good at?

Thor immediately closed his eyes half-closed, visualizing the walking diagram of the human monster.

Suddenly, the world in front of me ...... Nothing has changed.

Could it be that there are too few spirits on the outskirts of the Hanging Hand Valley? Or has this place been reclaimed by too many people, why is it so clean everywhere?

It's not like a wizard's burial ground at all.

There were dozens of large holes in the ground in front of him, and many more small holes, but none of them were unusual.

Thor was a little disappointed, and he turned his head, just as he was about to put away his meditation method, when he suddenly saw a cliff behind him.

He noticed that on the side of the mountain wall behind them, there were strange white phantoms wriggling outside several caves.

Thor couldn't help but walk over, and was about to take a closer look, when those white phantoms suddenly stretched out one by one, turning into white-handed phantoms as thin as bones.

Those hands were as slender as wooden poles, dense and like weeds. It grows on the periphery of a cliff cave and is constantly waving and shaking.

When Thor's gaze fell on them, the arms seemed to feel Thor's gaze and waved even more.

It's like calling for Sol to come over, and it's like calling for help from Sol.
