"Lindsay, what do you think the so-called Eyeless Man looks like?"

"A creature that lives underground, and because it has been in darkness for many years, its eyes have degenerated and disappeared."

"Even if you live underground, you won't lose your eyes, right?"

"It's normal to look at it on a relatively long time scale."

After leaving Three Pillars Lake, Lindsey and Red continued on their way.

They ate chunks of lizard meat that had been roasted in the morning while discussing information gained from the gopher's mouth.

According to this native species of the Thousand Hills Stone Forest.

Many years ago, a war broke out between the Eyeless and the Dragons, and the structure of the underworld was destroyed extensively, which caused the surface to collapse.

Lindsey remembered something very important:

"Red, remember the story I told you?"

"The demonic beast that is responsible for guarding you is a fifth-stage demonic beast called the Black-scaled Lizard Dragon."

Red's attention shifted from the Eyeless Man to the dragon.

For the existence of being in charge of guarding herself, she has a very subtle expectation in her heart:

"Lindsay, I remember you said it was strong?"

Lindsay immediately nodded in affirmation:

"Very powerful."

As the object of daily training, Red knows that Lindsay's strength has been increasing:

"What if it were the same person you are now?"

"I'm going to meet ...... now," Lindsay thought for a moment, "with that dragon's abilities, I'm afraid it's still going to be very dangerous." ”

Lindsey didn't mean anything to be modest or laughing.

He could indeed easily deal with some ordinary fifth-stage demonic beasts now.

But the black-scaled lizard dragon is not among them.

That guy has all-round abilities and is physically strong, and Lindsay may be able to fight the black-scaled lizard dragon head-on without relying on stratagems and traps, but he can't say that he can defeat the other party 100 percent.

Red also nodded thoughtfully:

"The cronies of the dragon beast are really strong enough."

Lindsay continued:

"That's right, the black-scaled lizard dragon is a diehard loyalist of dragon beasts, and the race that started a war with the Eyeless people in front and caused the earth to collapse is called the lizard dragon."

Red's expression became serious:

"Do you think this race has something to do with drakes?"

Lindsay was noncommittal:

"At least before the death of the King of Black Eagle, it was clearly stated that the dragon beast was born in the Thousand Mountains Stone Forest."

A smile appeared on the girl's face:

"Interesting!"

"Are we going to kill it all the way to its hometown?"

Lindsey affirmed:

"Maybe that's it."

At this point, Lindsay's tone changed suddenly.

He had been thinking about a question for the past few months, and now that he had experienced the encounter with Sanzhu Lake, he finally had a vague idea:

"Red, have you ever thought about something?"

Red sensed Lindsay's seriousness:

"What's the matter?"

Lindsey said solemnly:

"Those three stone pillars of the Three Pillars Lake can increase their strength. Do you think that with the power of the dragon beast, you will ignore the existence of such a thing? ”

After thinking about it simply, Red came to a conclusion in his heart:

"Maybe I'm not sure about the exact situation, but at least I'll be aware of it."

"But the truth is that the drake beast is completely unmoved." Lindsay agrees with this conclusion and asks another question, "So Red, do you think the Mother Tree is important to the drake?" ”

A six-stage powerful being.

There are even envoys sent to guard them, which is of course of high importance.

Red nodded without hesitation:

"I'm not blind, of course it values the Mother Tree!"

Lindsay's expression became more serious:

"And do you remember the swamp where you were imprisoned, and what happened when we left there?"

Hearing that things are related to oneself.

With her hands on her chest, Red slowed down and walked side by side with Lindsay, and she sensed the point of the conversation - herself.

"Lindsay, what do you mean?"

Lindsay admitted:

"The stone pillar that can increase its strength, the dragon beast will not interfere; The sixth-stage demonic beasts that surrendered to it, and the cronies sent out died, and it still didn't react; Just when I killed the black-scaled lizard dragon and rescued you. The drake was furious, and even caused a small earthquake. ”

"If you have to find a different ...... from it"

Having said this, Lindsay directly stretched out her hand and pointed to the girl in front of her:

"That could only be you."

Red's eyes widened:

"Huh? I? ”

The girl's expression was completely disbelieving, and there was even a self-deprecation in her eyes:

"A prisoner with no freedom, a loser who has lost all abilities and memories? Even more so than all that, the drakes were concerned and angry? ”

Lindsey bypassed Red's self-deprecation and continued to point out the suspicion in his eyes:

"Red, don't just focus on failure."

"Think about it from a different perspective."

"After the death of the Black-scaled Lizard Dragon, with the ability of the Dragon Beast to cause earthquakes, it should not be a problem to carry out a more focused attack. But the truth is, it only caused an earthquake. ”

"Even a six-stage tree mother can cause landslides and earth cracks."

"For that connected world, in the advanced seventh-stage dragon beast, a short earthquake is definitely not the upper limit of its ability!"

Red couldn't argue with Lindsay's analysis and began to think about himself.

Lindsey continued:

"So I don't think the small earthquake that happened in the swamp was a simple outburst of anger from the drake."

"Its real purpose is to change the cavern structure beneath the swamp and allow the lava to flood everything. At the same time, they will bury you deep under the ground, never see the light of day! ”

“……”

Red hadn't thought about it at all in the past.

So when Lindsay made this hypothesis, her first reaction was disbelief.

"How is that possible? I just ......"

Lindsay directly shook her head and interrupted Red's rebuttal:

"Red, I didn't say it, this is the absolutely correct truth, it's just a guess at the moment."

"After all, if you really have to be strict, the Three Pillars Lake will not necessarily attract the attention of the dragon beasts. This assumption can only be confirmed if more references are obtained. ”

Red shrugged.

She immediately understood what Lindsay meant.

More references are definitely targets that can attract the attention of drakes.

What else could it be?

This underground world ahead may be the home of the dragon beast!

If there is a secret buried in it that the other party has become stronger, then it will definitely be strictly monitored.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Lindsay raised an eyebrow.

He habitually zoomed in on the map to reconnoiter the road ahead as he hurried, and at this moment he noticed a steep drop in terrain.

"Red, we're almost there."

Lindsay greeted and led the girl beside her to speed forward.

Half an hour around a rugged mountain road ahead.

As a hot and cold west wind blew from behind the two of them, the picture in front of them changed suddenly.

It was a collapsed earth.

Countless stone pillars have fallen on the surface of the ground with countless cracks. Occasionally, when the wind and sand blow, the whole world is covered with a gray layer, and the simple smell of the air makes people's throats dry.

Quite some time has passed since that war.

When Lindsay and Red arrived, the land where there was almost no living thing could not hide the sadness of the catastrophe that had occurred.
