Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Salamander

They soon returned to the edge of the dark river, where Jiayi's stone bridge stood well, and there was nothing chasing after them, and everyone felt relieved.

"Let's take a break and drink some water, we were scared to death just now. A man in the crowd said.

Jia Yi didn't hear who it was, but he also felt that this was nothing, just looked at this dark river, thinking, these devil mosses are obviously blood-sucking, but what is there in them for the other party to suck? And this thing is not even a demonic beast, but it is more powerful than ordinary low-level demonic beasts, at least this defense is far better.

And there is another thing that makes him suspicious, the camouflage color of these devil mosses is green, imitation moss, but it is obvious that there is no moss in it, and these devil mosses are probably not native to the cave, but run in from places where there is sunlight and moss growth outside. That means that in addition to the entrance to the cave where Jia Yi and the others entered, there are likely to be other entrances to the cave.

Kaichi was about to tell the two captains about his doubts, when suddenly, a huge wave rose in the dark river, and a huge head emerged, this head was relatively flat, showing a dark red, and the mouth was wide and open, and sharp teeth could be seen inside. There was a group of coral branches-like protrusions on the back of his head, which reminded Kaichi of the baby fish he had seen, but this one was extraordinarily large, with a single head being half a human's height.

The head of the huge "baby fish" just stretched out its head and gently took it away, and the person who was fetching water on the shore was taken away, and the tongue was gently curled and swallowed into the stomach. At this time, Jiayi and the others hadn't reacted yet, and watched this huge "baby fish" eat a person, fall into the water and disappear, only splashing a huge wave and watering the rest of the people.

"What's that?" Bloomer shouted.

"I don't know, like a giant salamander. Jia put on a shield as she spoke, took two steps towards the river, took out her detection array, and began to track the behemoth.

Before crossing the river, Kaichi's detection had not found the giant salamander, but now it had appeared, and Kaichi didn't know if he was lucky enough to come across a species that could absorb sound waves, or if he had just run over.

But fortunately, Jiayi's luck is not so bad, as soon as he activated the array disk, he searched for this huge salamander almost instantly, it didn't go far at all, after falling underwater, it turned a corner, and rushed outward from the bottom of the water, the speed was very fast, just caught by Jiayi's array disk, otherwise under the water, Jiayi still needs to distinguish whether it is a stone or a salamander.

As soon as Jia saw that the salamander was about to rush out of the water, he hurriedly retreated, and at the same time prepared the staff in his hand, and when the salamander rushed out of the water and opened a bloody mouth at Jia, Jia Yi immediately shot a scorching ray into the salamander's mouth.

"Yi~" The huge salamander let out a loud roar, some like cows, some like goose sounds, or a mixture of cow and goose sounds, which also made Jia Yi feel a little like a dragon's roar, although he hadn't heard it, but it should be similar to this.

The huge salamander that had rushed out was hit, and as soon as its head twisted in mid-air, it fell to the surface of the river, and as soon as it turned over, its huge tail swung out and attacked Jiayi's head and face. It's just that although Kaichi dodged, the salamander's tail hit the bridge that Kaichi had erected when he came. The stone bridge immediately shattered, became many pieces, and fell into the water.

It's hard to say whether this was intentional or unintentional on the part of the great salamander, because after being dodged by Jia Yi, the big salamander never came out again.

Jia Yi picked up the array plate and immediately began to track the big salamander, only to see the big salamander sink to the bottom of the river, hide among the rocks, and then swim to the cave in the river in the distance, and disappear.

"The salamander is gone, let's get over there. ”

As soon as Jia finished speaking, he started making the stone bridge again, and the part that was broken by the giant salamander was completed. However, before the stone bridge could be made, Raman and Bloomer jumped first. Only the man carrying the body of the white-faced man and a few people who were not sure followed Kaichi to the stone bridge.

"Master Jiayi, what was that thing just now? What kind of salamander are you talking about? How can it be so big. ”

"This should be a mutated salamander, or an ancient salamander or something, it is estimated that there will be some spell-like abilities, but fortunately, all salamanders are reluctant to leave the water, we should be safe as long as we run farther." Kaichi said.

Raman opened his mouth in surprise and said, "Didn't you beat it away?"

"How can this be considered a fight. Jia Yi shook his head, "Just now, it was just a surprise and hurt the other party, so the big salamander ran away, and when the other party's pain subsided a little, he will definitely come back." That is, bullying and bullying the other party without seeing anyone, it will be so easy to retreat. ”

Bloomer said on the side: "I didn't expect there to be so many monsters here, I thought there were only a few monsters." ”

He began to worry about the prospect of this mine, originally thought that even if there were monsters, they would only be a few things that were not too strong, but now those things that were named "Devil Moss" by Jiayi were definitely not something that he and others could solve, even if they used fire, it was not easy to kill, and the so-called mutant salamanders he encountered now did not seem to be easy to deal with.

On top of that, the monster that seems to have attacked the miners has not yet been found - the mutant salamander is in the water, and it does not like to leave the water, so it is impossible to run to the entrance and tear the rope off. So at least the thing that corroded the rope at the entrance must not be these large salamanders.

After crossing the Dark River, they walked briskly back to the huge cave hall from which they came, and soon they saw the magic light left by Kaichi again.

In fact, Jiayi is still quite satisfied with the mineral resources here, although the quality of the iron ore above is not high, but in this natural cave, Jiayi found a lot of outcrops covered with emerald green patina, the rest of the people did not see, or saw but did not pay attention, but Jiayi knew that it was malachite, which is a mineral seedling, which means that there is copper ore below.

Malachite can also be regarded as a kind of jewelry, but its value is far less than that of gemstones such as rubies and sapphires, and unpolished natural malachite is about the same as rusty bronze, which is not conspicuous. And in fact, the ingredients of these two things are indeed the same.

Kaichi concluded that there was a copper mine in it, so the value was not the same, although it was still very difficult to mine before the various monsters below were solved, but there was always a way to solve it.

And since there are copper mines, won't there be other deposits, and even if there are no associated gold mines, it would be good to have some malachite that reaches gem quality.
