Chapter 32: Collapse and Fall
Yes!
This is the hands-on?
I still have questions to ask!
Red's questioning and movements were extremely fast, and Lindsay was even a little confused.
But at this moment, the meteorite spear had already fallen from the sky, and the moment it touched, it pierced the rock puppet's hands.
One second later, the root beard elder below will definitely die.
And in this short period of time, only Lindsay could react to the scene.
Syllable!
In the nick of time, Lindsay grabbed the meteorite spear thrown by Red and smashed it into the ground with a punch.
Rumble!
The blow looked bare-handed.
But the mace in the equipment slot is still working, so the actual burst is far more powerful than you think. At the same time, the power of the [Emblem of Ice and Fire] took effect, directly smashing the rock golem's hands to pieces.
The root-bearded elder who was a little dizzy by the shock was dragged out again by Lindsay.
"Lindsay?"
Red is puzzled by Lindsay's actions to stop her from killing enemies:
"Why do you want to save this guy who succumbs to power, betrays in a crisis, acts and is sneaky?"
Because on my map, it shows neutral units.
If the two were alone, Lindsay could have explained it this way, but now there were outsiders present, so he put it another way:
"Red, your goal is to kill the dragon beast as well, right?"
The girl replied without hesitation:
"Of course!"
Lindsey followed the conversation and said:
"Then you should be able to see that no matter what it did before, it will always be in opposition to the dragon beast. Even if it is to achieve our goals, we can't kill him so easily. ”
Red clasped his hands on his chest and turned his head:
"Huh! I don't believe what this guy says! ”
The idea of red is simple.
The Root Beard Elder in front of her used to serve the dragon beast force that imprisoned her, and later she was even more capricious, betraying her master to survive, she didn't want to talk to this kind of thing at all!
But even if the attitude is disdainful.
Red also accepts Lindsay's persuasion and gives up the idea of killing the Elder Rootbeard immediately.
Lindsay turned her gaze to the elder with the root whiskers in her hand, and the rock golem next to her who had lost its movement:
"You have seen it too, I ......"
Boom Boom –
Just then, Lindsay felt her feet slip.
Before, the Rootbeard Elders fled to the cliff, and they stood here now.
Later, the rock puppet rescued people, causing the ground to shake, and after the actions of Lindsay and Red, the earth and rocks on the edge of the cliff finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to collapse.
"Huh?"
"Hmm!"
Reactions were mixed.
Lindsay opened her bag and pulled her belongings out of it.
Red slammed into Lindsay, clearly trying to knock him back to safety first.
However, it was difficult to relay the earth and rocks that suddenly slid downward, and everyone did half of the movement, and immediately fell into the deep cliff and valley.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
A few seconds later, a strange sound was heard from the cliff.
Falling off a cliff in the midst of sliding earth and rocks is a dangerous situation that would have been life-threatening.
But Lindsay seized the opportunity and planted his own clods of earth across the cliff, barely forming a place to stay.
Lindsay then grabbed the elder with her left hand and the red with her right hand.
The three of them stopped between the cliffs in this dangerous way.
"Human, what did you do?"
They were all a little frightened, but the Elder Rootbeard had a keen sense of the earth. It was certain that Lindsay's abilities had nothing to do with the terrain, but it had saved them by changing the terrain.
It couldn't understand this phenomenon and couldn't help but ask:
"What has your craft done to the earth?"
At the same time, strange sounds came from the cliffs below.
The three of them looked down and saw that it was a rock puppet that had just fallen, and it had climbed up again.
However, it is in a strange state, the lower half of its body melts into the earth and stone due to the effect of its ability, and the upper half of its body is exposed to the surface of the cliff.
As for the weird voice.
It is also the sound of the upper body exposed by the rock puppet in the friction with the mountain rocks.
Lindsey was thoughtful.
Rock golems have previously demonstrated the ability to fully dive into dirt and rock to move.
At the moment, use this way of making a sound.
Perhaps it was to remind Lindsay that he was approaching, to ensure that this contact would not cause other misunderstandings.
After a while, the rock golem 'swam' up.
As Lindsey expected.
It did not attack, but as if it had identified some kind of reality, it said to the two humans with serious expressions:
"Humans, you're right, we have a common enemy."
"In order to solve the crisis facing the world, it should not be fought here either."
In a clear gesture of kindness, the rock golem turned to look at the Rootbeard Elder again:
"Zongshu, bring them to me."
“……”
Elder Rootbeard was visibly reluctant, and the voice in the rock golem continued:
"I can understand your cautious and protective attitude."
"But look, a misunderstanding has been born."
"We're running out of things now, and the beast's advancement is just around the corner. At this time, every hope must be firmly grasped. ”
Elder Rootbeard couldn't resist the sound coming from the rock golem.
It nodded slightly, indicating that it accepted the order:
"Human, come with me."
“……”
With the help of rock golems, it was much easier to go down from the cliffs.
During this time, Lindsay opens the map.
This lifeless pure tool, sure enough, is not shown on the map. It can also be regarded as a reminder to Lindsay that she can't rely entirely on the reconnaissance function of the map.
Otherwise, someday in the future.
He might have made a big mistake for that reason.
It didn't take long for them, led by the rock golems, to reach the bottom of the canyon.
The journey that followed was somewhat surprising, but also plausible.
The people behind the roots and beards are far away from them.
For a whole day, they weave from canyon to canyon and even enter some tunnels hidden underground with the help of rock golems.
Even then, until the next morning.
They had just found an inconspicuous cave at the bottom of a canyon.
"This is it."
The elder of the root beard made an introduction, and he took the initiative to walk in front and enter the cave
At the same time, the rock golem that had brought them along the way melted into the earth and disappeared.
"Here it is."
Lindsay and Red looked at each other, pulled out their torches and followed.
The cave hidden at the bottom of the canyon is just an entrance, and there is a deep tunnel behind it.
Don't mention the length, just the depth of the descent.
After walking down for more than 20 meters, the narrow space in front of him suddenly opened up.
It is a stone hall hidden beneath the ground.
A strange creature with a body made of rock, shaped like a rock golem, but glowing in its joints, sits here.
It saw Lindsay's arrival and seemed to want to get up.
But a certain feeling of weakness haunted its body, and it only moved slightly, and then reluctantly gave up.
In the end, I could only sit where I was and say hello to Lindsay:
"Human, blessed by the mountains, glad to meet you."
"There may be some misunderstandings between us, but I believe that honest communication can solve these unpleasant problems."
