Chapter 1213 Signs of Danger

The Blood Mosquito Agent created by the 3rd ring "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique" can open a silent barrier with a radius of 10 feet at any time.

Taking advantage of this feature, Joan can remotely control Blood Mosquito Agent to stealthily sneak, fly to the back of the enemy caster without anyone noticing, and land quietly on the opponent.

And when the other party started to cast the spell, Qiao An remotely controlled the Blood Mosquito Agent to activate the "Silence Technique", covering the hostile spell caster in the barrier of silence, preventing the other party from chanting the spell aloud, and the casting ceremony in progress would also be blocked. Forced interruption.

Of course, all this is just a beautiful idea.

Next, Qiao An needs to concentrate on recombining the modified "Mosquito Finger Technique", "Invisibility Technique" and "Silence Technique" into a complete configuration, and then after repeated debugging, he finally develops a product that perfectly fits the concept. "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique".

Fortunately, Qiao An has nothing else to do now, so he can just use this spare time to wait for his companions to dig a tunnel and come down to meet up to complete the research and development of "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique".

...

After a whole day of construction, the dwarves finally dug a wide tunnel with a downward slope and a vertical drop of nearly a hundred feet.

Klein compared the map provided by Joan, and first cast the "Any Door" alone, trying to cross the stratum as deep as 600 feet, and teleport directly to the navel where Joan was.

This attempt was a bit risky. Fortunately, the surveying data provided by Joan was accurate enough. Klein arrived safely in the open underground area. When he looked back, the rubble pile caused by the landslide was only six or seven yards away from him. , at this moment he has plunged headlong into the pile of rocks.

"Good morning, Mr. Klein."

The young mage who was guarding the teleportation point in advance waved his hand to greet the dwarf brother.

"Haha! Brother Joan, we meet again!" Klein stepped forward, hugged Joan excitedly, and asked with concern: "You stayed here all day alone, and you didn't encounter any danger. Bar?"

"Except for the flail snail, no other dangerous creatures have been encountered so far."

"That's good, you wait here for a while, and I'll bring the others down right away."

Joan nodded, and stopped disturbing the busy Klein, went back to the folding desk and sat down, and continued to optimize the "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique" that had completed the main structure.

After a whole day of painstaking research and development, the 3-ring "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique" has achieved the functions that Joan expected, and now only the details are left to be polished.

Klein disappeared into a circle of silver teleportation light, and teleported back within two minutes. Holden and Scholz came down with him.

"Hi! Joan, you are quite laid back!" Holden greeted with a smile.

"Mr. Vader, I heard that you were attacked by a flail snail here yesterday, is it all right?" Scholz also came over and asked curiously.

Joan put away the spell book and briefly recounted what happened yesterday.

Just after the beginning of the talk, Klein sent Audrey and Hylar down again, so there were two more listeners beside Joan.

They were chatting leisurely here, but Brother Klein had to go back and forth again and again. It took more than an hour to "carry" all the members of the prospecting team, and he was really tired.

After taking the water bottle that Joan handed over to him, he drank it all in one gulp. Klein wiped his sweat, looked back at the blocked tunnel, and said with a wry smile: "I hope we can find other more convenient roads on the way back, so that we don't have to worry about it." Then go up and down again and again."

When everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help laughing.

After the break, the prospecting team continued on the road.

Joan walked this section of the road yesterday, and was just in front of her as a guide for her companions.

The "Advanced Mosquito Finger Technique" just developed was also used by him, and he successfully summoned a blood mosquito spy with the characteristics of "invisibility" and "noise reduction", even if it is attached to people's ears and vibrates its wings, it will not Make the slightest sound.

Joan ordered the Blood Mosquito spies to explore the way forward, heading deep into the navel.

For the next two days, the prospecting team explored in the umbilicus.

Occasionally, some underground creatures came out to watch, but the blood mosquitoes detected them in advance, and did not pose a threat worth mentioning to the prospecting team.

Occasionally, there will be a fork in the road during the journey, but fortunately, the open-air magic crystal ore that appears and disappears from time to time points out the right path for everyone.

Especially experienced exploration experts such as Klein and Scholz can judge the direction of the ore veins based on the distribution of ore specimens.

On the third day, the terrain ahead finally changed, from a narrow natural tunnel to a huge and complex underground cave. At first glance, it was riddled with holes, and there were countless large and small caves. is the right way.

Arriving here, Joan couldn't help but miss the flail snail that died in his hands.

If the flail snail is still alive, it may be able to rely on its natural prospecting instinct to lead the prospecting team through the intricate natural maze in front of it.

Comparing the navigation compass, Joan found that his position corresponds to the hinterland of the "Iron Forest" in the surface world, which is the border area between the Midgard colony and the Jotunheim colony belonging to the Fizen Kingdom.

Both the two colonial governments claimed sovereignty over the "Iron Forest" area, but in fact, neither side really controlled this vast jungle. The mysterious organization "Primitive Order" deep in the Iron Forest.

The situation in the underground world is far more complicated than that on the surface.

As it gradually penetrated into the core area of ​​the magic crystal vein, the estimated value of the mineral reserves continued to increase, and Joan had a faint sense of foreboding while being excited.

Now he prefers that the reserves of this magic crystal mine should not be too large, otherwise once the news spreads, it will not only arouse the covetousness of the northern Fizhen colonists, but also the aborigines of the underground world, especially the greedy dark elves, may also intervene in the dispute— —They don't care about "industry rules" or "international politics".

If the situation is going in the direction I worry about, the underground labyrinth in front of me, where endless wealth is buried, may become a killing field where various forces compete, and there will be no peace...

A wave of mental fluctuations came into his mind, awakening Joan from his contemplation.

Klein noticed the change in his expression, and asked casually, "Brother Joan, have you discovered anything new?"

"Just now, the blood mosquito smelled a bloody smell." Joan pointed to a deep tunnel on the left side of the cave, "Enter this tunnel and walk about 500 yards forward. Like humanoid blood."
