Chapter 1193 Lure the Enemy Out of the Cave (Ⅰ)

Medea synthesized all the information brought back by the peeping magic eye, and told Joan about the situation inside and outside the navel.

"There are two petrified lizard nests that we are most concerned about. The first nest is relatively close, less than a hundred feet from the entrance of the umbilical cord. There are only 4 adult petrified lizards in the nest, and there are no cubs or lizard eggs. .”

"In the first lizard lair, my magic eye also found four dwarven stone sculptures, all of which are well preserved, and they should be the prospectors who were tragically petrified."

"The second lizard lair is located in the middle of the navel, and the distance from the entrance is as long as two miles. There are five adult petrified lizards entangled in the cave, and no cubs or eggs were found. This is really unexpected and disturbing. People are disappointed.”

Medea said with a full face of regret.

In fact, Joan really wanted to collect some basilisk eggs, take them back to school for research, and try to hatch and raise them in a laboratory environment, so he could understand Medea's disappointment at the moment.

However, now is not the egg-laying season for petrified lizards. If there is no one, there will be none. You can't force petrified lizards to go against the rules of estrus to pair up and lay eggs, right?

"Medea, if you really want lizard eggs, you might as well capture a pair of adult petrified lizards alive, one female and one male, and bring them home to raise them. In two months at most, they will be ready to lay eggs."

"That's a good idea!" Medea smiled again, "Joan, help me catch the lizard later, okay?"

Is this... acting like a baby?

Joan laughed secretly, nodded and said, "Of course it's no problem, but there is one more thing I want to ask you. Did you find a dwarf statue in the second basilisk's lair?"

Medea hesitated for a moment, then replied softly: "Four statues were found, only one sentence remains intact, and the other three have been chewed to be inhuman."

"That is to say, those three incomplete stone statues cannot be revived even if they are casted to dispel petrification?"

"Well, I'm afraid so... Should I tell Mr. Klein about this?"

Joan caught a fleeting trace of unbearableness in Medea's eyes, and found out that the Gorgon was actually more compassionate than she appeared on the surface, and her impression of her improved greatly.

"It's better not to say it now. When the petrified lizards are eliminated and the miners who died unfortunately are avenged, Klein and Scholz won't be too sad." Joan replied softly.

Medea nodded in agreement.

Joan took out the "navigation compass" from the storage bag, activated the mapping function, and the surrounding map was presented in a three-dimensional frame.

"Medea, point out the locations of the two lizard lairs on this map."

The Gorgon stared in amazement at the three-dimensional image that emerged above the compass, and after a while, he slightly parted his vermilion lips in admiration.

"Joan, this is amazing! How did you do it?"

"The compass is enchanted with 'Navigation' and 'Ask Nature'."

"I still need to use 'Ask Nature'..."

Hearing that she needs to use 5-ring magic, the excited brilliance on Medea's face immediately dimmed. Knowing that it was impossible for her to make the same surveying and mapping magic device, she raised her hand and drew two small circles on the three-dimensional map , to mark the location of the lizard's nest.

Joan freed his left hand, touched his right eye lightly, activated the "Eagle Eye" attached to the prosthetic eye, and created an invisible magic observation point at the position indicated by Medea.

Joan switched his perspective to the front and rear magic observation points one after another. As Medea said, he could clearly see the movement in the petrified lizard's lair.

Four in the front and five in the back, a total of nine petrified lizards, all lying in their nests, taking a lazily nap.

Joan withdrew from the remote observation perspective and said to Medea, "Let's go back."

"OK."

The two returned to the campfire side by side, and described the information obtained from the spell-casting investigation to their companions in detail.

"The basilisks are located in two nests, and they are far apart. This is good news for us. We can first attract the 4 basilisks in the first nest and eliminate them all, and then try to deal with the second nest Divide the 5 lizards into two groups, and the pressure will be relatively small," Audrey said.

"The idea is very good, but there is a technical problem." Hailaer said solemnly, "How can we lure the group of lazy eating lizards out of the nest?"

"Brother Klein said just now that petrified lizards are very lazy creatures. Unless they are too hungry, they always lie down and doze off in their nests. It is very difficult to lure them out of their dens."

"To take a step back, even if the basilisk is willing to take the bait, who should we send as bait?"

"Anyone who faces a large group of petrified lizards will have to bear the huge risk of being turned into a stone statue. Even if he takes the 'Blindsight Potion' in advance, he is not afraid of the petrified gaze, and runs in a strange and rugged tunnel with his eyes closed and blind. , it is hard to guarantee that there will be no stumbling situation.”

"Should I accidentally fall down on the way to escape and be thrown down by the petrified lizard immediately behind, I don't need to say the consequences, right?"

After hearing Hailar's words, everyone felt extremely heavy.

The facts are indeed as she said, someone must enter the navel to act as a bait and take a huge risk, but who is willing to risk their own life?

"Leave the task of luring the basilisk to me."

Klein stood up without hesitation.

"I invite everyone to help, I can't pass all the troubles on to my friends, and I can sit back and enjoy the benefits. Besides, I am a 'land walker', and I can use the 'any door' to escape from danger at any time. Petrified lizards are only worthy of following behind me Eat ashes, no one is more suitable for the role of luring the enemy than me!"

The young people were amused by the wisecrack of the dwarf brother, and at the same time, they were deeply impressed by Klein's heroic spirit.

"Brother Klein, there is actually another person here who is more suitable than you to lure the basilisk out of the nest, and he doesn't have to take any risks." Holden patted his chest with a smile, "To be honest, it's me! "

"That's right! The little hooligan can play the flute. He used the magical sound of the flute to lure the scavengers out of the depths of the cave. This trick also works against the petrified lizard!"

Hailaer slapped his hands, his eyebrows beaming.

"Brother Klein doesn't need to venture into the navel, just let the little hooligan play the flute at the entrance of the cave!"

"This method is more secure." Audrey nodded in agreement. "In case the petrified lizard finds Holden's flute too unpleasant and refuses to take the bait, it will not be too late for Mr. Klein to enter the navel to lure the enemy himself."

"Hey! Whose flute sound is too ugly? You are my own sister! Doesn't your conscience ache when you say this?" Holden protested strongly to his sister with an aggrieved face, "As long as the petrified lizard grows Ears, with the most basic intelligence, will be intoxicated by the sound of my flute!"
