Chapter 179 The Fruit of Life?
"What did you see?"
Logan is also wearing glasses, and he can also see the picture transmitted by the detector. Only Cleo doesn't know what happened, but his IQ is absolutely online. to find out what is under the spring water.
So he's been paying attention, asking after Ethan's sudden look of surprise.
"It's not very easy to describe, it's not clear what this thing is."
In appearance, it should be a huge plant, but it is vaguely human-like. I don't know if it is a problem of angle or my own thinking is wrong. If you want to really confirm your judgment, you can only see it with your own eyes.
"I'm ready to go, do you want to wait here?"
"No, I'm with you."
Logan will not wait behind, and with his ability, he is not afraid of any dangers below. So Ethan's words were mainly to ask Cleo, and the captain of the Eternal was not someone who was willing to stay behind, and immediately said that he wanted to go down together.
"The speed of the probe is actually very fast, but it sailed down for half an hour. I have some ability to make our descent faster, but it will not take less than half an hour... You can solve yourself breathing problems?"
Ethan's meaning is very clear. He has the means to ensure the speed. As for the problem of breathing, it depends on whether Cleo can help himself. He could give Cleo an underwater breathing, but he didn't mention it directly, mainly to test whether Cleo or an adventurer at this level had the ability to fight underwater.
The result is of course not unexpected, Cleo said that this is not a trouble, he can solve this small trouble himself.
Several people looked at each other, and Ethan sent Diana another message through his glasses. In fact, he was on the 'language' mode the whole time just now. Of course Diana could hear their conversation, knowing that Ethan was about to sneak into an underground cave, and there was a possibility of communication interruption. This information was just to let her not worry.
"If you don't have a message back within an hour, I'll take action."
"Can."
After setting a rescue time with Diana and finalizing the equipment with Logan and Cleo, Ethan jumped into the spring first.
The space in this spring is not very big. The three people must be separated by a certain distance and then jump into the water one by one. Ethan, who jumped in first, was not in a hurry to activate his ability to sneak down quickly, but slowly sinking, feeling Is there anything special about the spring water.
"The temperature of the spring water is not high, but it does not make people feel uncomfortable. The extremely high oxygen content..."
Ethan has already activated underwater breathing. This spell actually has its limits. If the oxygen content in the water is very low, it will still make people feel oxygen-deficient. The essence of this magic is to isolate water molecules, and make the Oxygen is isolated for the user to breathe, and how high is the oxygen content in this spring? If you are not afraid of choking on water, you can theoretically breathe normally.
"It is said that some people with excellent water quality can breathe underwater and increase the diving time. If they are in this environment, with their ability, maybe they can stay in the water all the time?"
These are all rumors. Anyway, Ethan has never really seen such a person, and these ideas are just a temporary brain hole, and he himself is not interested in trying it out himself.
As his body gradually sank, he also got a signal to know that both Cleo and Logan had entered the water one after another. After the last Logan who entered the water sent a signal through his glasses, Ethan immediately locked the two through his ability to control the water element. Companions, then use this ability to increase their sinking speed.
At the speed at which they are naturally sinking, I don't know how long it will take to reach the cave. Ethan must use his ability to accelerate them.
It's just not very comfortable, imagine the super long cylinder slides in the water park, they are now diving faster than the steepest stage in that slide, especially Cleo and Luo as passengers Root, they even suspected that they had gotten into the front-loading washing machine.
This journey is really not very comfortable, and Ethan himself is equally uncomfortable. It is natural to feel depressed in such a closed space. When the light showed under his feet, Ethan immediately accelerated the speed, from The spring water came out.
Ethan, who was feeling the free fall, glanced over his head. The spring water seemed to be blocked by an invisible film, and it perfectly stayed in the stone wall above his head. A replica of the fountain they entered earlier.
"Feather Falling Technique!"
Ethan's body is just an ordinary person. When he observed, he did not forget to cast a magic that would not let him fall to his death. The height of the cave was much higher than he thought. It is even more dangerous to jump directly from the roof of the ten-story building. If he does not use some means, he will 100% fall into mud.
Feather Fall is a very simple little magic, specially designed to deal with the situation of falling from a high altitude. This magic is not difficult to use and does not consume a lot of magic power. Of course, Ethan can easily release it today - the trouble is that this magic requires For the casting materials, Ethan must always keep some feathers in his ring space, and these are collected on Paradise Island.
Ethan, who was as light as a swallow and slowly fell, was still floating in the air, and the sound of water splashes came from his head again. Cleo and Logan fell out of the spring one after another, and the two feathers that Ethan had already held in his hand turned into two white rays of light that hit the two rapidly falling companions.
After that, like Ethan, they turned into fluttering feathers and slowly fell towards the ground.
Logan knew that Ethan was a magician. Although he had never seen this trick, he would not be surprised by what methods Ethan showed. The magician in his impression was such an existence.
Cleo was a little surprised. At first, he was a little panicked, thinking that he had been attacked, and then he realized that it was Ethan helping him to prevent him from falling directly to the ground. He didn't directly ask what kind of ability this was.
Adventurers in this sea will be careful with each other, and no one will directly tell another unfamiliar competitor of their abilities, even if Cleo really has no ill will towards Ethan, as long as Ethan has a normal IQ If so, be wary of him.
If you think about it, he will make the same choice. When the two people just met, Ethan would help him, and it has been proved that his moral level has surpassed most of the adventurers in this world.
The three people who were falling slowly took a while to get their feet on the ground. The feather fall technique that Ethan used lost its effect when they landed, preventing them from being light when they were walking and affecting their next movements.
Ethan, who released this magic by himself, has not yet figured out the principle of this spell, but just uses this magic mechanically according to the teaching in the book. Maybe after he has studied and understood, he can use this spell without resorting to feathers. material.
Putting the feather fall technique aside, Ethan took a few steps to pick up the detector that had fallen on the ground. After a brief inspection, the detector was not damaged. This prop made by Tony Stark is very strong. . After closing it and putting it away, Ethan looked up at the peculiar plant not far away.
"What the hell is this?"
After Logan came to this world, most of what he saw was still within the comprehension range, and he even had the illusion that he was still on the earth, that is, the sudden change of weather could remind him of the difference between here and the earth.
Until this moment, he had the feeling of coming to another world. The thing in front of him was like a huge plant. There were countless vines connected to the top of the cave, almost covering the entire 'ceiling'. At the same time, these vines exuded Some people feel very comfortable light, so that the whole cave is like daylight, which is also the source of light in the cave.
"Perhaps a plant?"
This thing contains huge vitality, Ethan looked up at the vines that covered the entire top, and he suddenly had a guess.
"Maybe, the grass on the entire island is part of this thing."
Cleo didn't speak. He frowned and looked at the plant, as if he was thinking about something. After observing for a long time, he didn't say anything.
"Maybe I know what it is, but there are some differences between this one and what I know. I don't know if it is that thing?"
"What is it?"
"The Fruit of Life."
Ethan blinked, and then pointed to the subject in the distance that at least a dozen people would need to hold hands to hug.
"You said this thing is called the fruit of life? Are you sure it's not the tree of life?"
Cleo shook his head: "So I'm not very sure. The Fruit of Life I heard is a very small plant. The biggest part is the fruit, and it's only the size of a fist."
"Then why do you think this thing is the fruit of life?"
Since the difference is so huge, why does Cleo think this thing is the fruit of life? Ethan believes that Cleo will not be as simple as saying it casually, and there must be some basis.
"Because the appearance of the fruit of life... is like a person holding a huge fruit."
Ethan turned his head and glanced at the plant, and found that the shape of this thing really looked like a person holding a huge object - but it was a huge spherical object, and those countless vines extending to the top The connection is this huge sphere.
"So, this is a fruit of life magnified countless times?"
