Chapter 1216 Tracking the Crystal Python

In the end, it was Klein who spoke first and broke the silence.

"Brother Joan, and Hyrule, Audrey, and Holden, when I invited you here, I just wanted to solve the trouble caused by the petrified lizard, but I didn't expect there to be a crystal python that is more dangerous than the petrified lizard..."

"Mr. Klein, if you want to persuade us to leave here, please excuse me!" Hailaer interrupted him, "We have already arrived here, and a huge fortune is waiting for us to discover, how can we Give up halfway! In order to get rich, it is worth taking some risks!"

"For Miss Cai to give up the opportunity to make a fortune right in front of me, that's more uncomfortable than killing her."

Holden joked with a smile, then changed the subject and said that he would advance and retreat with the dwarf prospecting team.

"If we don't know anything about the details of the crystal python, it would be a safe move to choose to retreat."

"However, as early as three days ago, we had learned about the existence of the crystal python from Medea, and we had made a lot of preparations to deal with it. If we retreated before we even saw the crystal python, our previous Isn't the preparation all in vain?"

Holden pulled out the "Secondary Spiritual Amulet" tied to the silver chain from the collar, and shook it at everyone.

"Even if it's to be worthy of the topaz talisman that Brother Klein paid for and made with Joan's efforts, we should take the initiative and try to kill the crystal python!"

Everyone was amused by Holden's words, and the tense atmosphere eased accordingly.

Although Audrey is not as optimistic as her younger brother and Hailar, she is also unwilling to give up halfway.

Qiao An was worried that there was more than one crystal python hidden deep in the mine, but considering that everyone had struggled to regain morale and unanimously supported the move forward, it was better not to say such bad words.

From here, every step forward may encounter a crystal python. To be on the safe side, Joan made a suggestion to Klein.

The prospecting team stayed in place, and Joan himself, Klein, Scholz, Hailar, and Zion siblings formed a small team of six to continue to explore in depth. After eliminating the threat of the crystal python, they sent a message with magic , Notify the large troops to come to join.

Klein also knew that the dwarf miners under him were good at dealing with ordinary monsters, but facing powerful monsters of the level of crystal pythons, instead of being helpful, they would be a drag. It is better to stay in a safe zone and avoid unnecessary Sacrifice, he readily accepted Joan's suggestion.

After the prospecting team was settled, the six advance team members assembled and were ready to go.

Joan summoned the Blood Mosquito spy over, let him sniff the dwarf's blood first, and told the Blood Mosquito to record the smell.

The crystal python that slaughtered the dwarf prospecting team must have been stained with a lot of blood, emitting the same bloody smell.

Relying on his keen sense of smell, Blood Mosquito Agent quickly found out the path that the crystal python had left from among the labyrinthine and intricate caves, followed the bloody smell and flapped his wings to track it down.

Joan, Hyrule, Audrey, Holden, Klein, and Scholz followed behind Blood Mosquito Agent, and the six figures quickly disappeared into the depths of the winding and deep tunnel, blending into the endless darkness.

...

In the depths of the underground karst cave, the stalactites hanging from the dome are like dense spikes. From time to time, water drops fall from the top of the stone clock, and the ticking sound echoes in the empty tunnel, like a natural pendulum, timing in secret.

An invisible insect quietly flew into the cave, sniffed out a trace of bloody smell from the moist air with flexible tentacles, and then flapped its wings and flew towards the direction where the bloody smell was escaping.

The stealth blood mosquito flies extremely fast, and when it vibrates its wings at high frequency, it doesn't make a "flying tune" like its bloodthirsty distant relatives.

The airflow turbulence caused by the flight is restricted by the "Silence Barrier" opened all over its body, making it impossible to form even the slightest vibrato.

This silent spy has been shuttling through the maze-like underground cave for two hours, and the bloody aura it is following has become more and more intense, and it is about to reach the source.

Passing through the damp cave, there is a downward-sloping tunnel in front of it. From the wall to the ground, sharp blue crystals can be seen everywhere, which are high-grade natural magic crystal ores.

At the end of the tunnel, there was a rough rubbing sound, and a hazy blue light swayed in the depths of the darkness.

The Blood Mosquito spy followed the light and flew over, turned his compound eyes to peep at the bottom of the pit, and saw a slender and round monster entrenched in the natural mine pit, looking from a distance like a giant python, 30 feet long from head to tail, with a body Thick as a beam.

What is attached to the body surface of this giant python is not fine scales, but irregular blue magic crystal ore.

The ore on the abdomen, which frequently rubs against the ground, has been polished very smooth, while the ore inlaid on the back and sides of the body mostly maintains the original shape, showing the characteristics of sharp-edged crystals.

This rough, thick and natural armor, as well as the fangs and sharp teeth also made of sharp ore crystals, added a bit of barbaric temperament to this strange python. There is a spiral crystal horn growing on the forehead, which glows slightly, like a lantern, flickering faint blue flames in the dark.

The Blood Mosquito spy lingered beside this hideous python for a long time, carefully observed it from beginning to end, and did not arouse the other party's vigilance.

At the same time, 300 yards away, at the entrance of the cave, the owner of Blood Mosquito Agent also saw through its eyes the strange python wriggling lazily in the mine.

"I found the crystal python."

Joan stopped and reminded the five companions in a low voice.

"The monster is at the end of this cave, entrenched in a large bowl-shaped pit, and has not found us yet."

"This is a good opportunity, we have to try to lure out that big snake and kill it!" Klein stroked his beard, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

"Leave the task of luring the enemy to me, just like dealing with scavengers and basilisks before."

Holden took out the flute from the storage bag and smiled confidently.

Klein nodded, and continued: "Don't forget Ms. Gauguin's warning back then, and the bloody lessons learned by the dwarf miners!"

"The boa constrictor covered in ore is extremely hard. When a sword is cut on it, not only can it not cause damage, but it will also be collapsed. Except for sound waves or acid magic, only blunt weapons with sufficient weight can do it. Crack its shell."

Saying that, the dwarf brother showed his magic hammer. Scholz also untied the same warhammer from his back, held it tightly in his hand, and lifted the tower shield with his right hand.

"I'm not used to hammers. Fortunately, my sword is big enough and weighs more than your war hammer. It can also be used as a blunt weapon when necessary."

Hyrule picked up the huge sword, twisted the blade ninety degrees, and attacked the enemy with a broad spine instead of a sharp blade, like a flat iron rod.
