Chapter 1225 Crazy Plan
"We only discovered this strange phenomenon not long ago, Belling, can you provide us with a reasonable explanation?" Audrey asked the dwarf mage.
"I was also puzzled at first, but after several close observations of the crystal python, coupled with genius reasoning, I have solved this mystery!"
Belling said confidently.
"Crystal pythons are keen on swallowing humanoid creatures alive rather than killing them, and consciously send the captured people to a mysterious place!"
"According to my observations, a crystal python can accommodate up to eight dwarves, or four adult humans, and it always fills up and leaves without delay!"
"From this point of view, the hollow abdominal cavity of the crystal python is like a prison cage, and the crystal python itself is equivalent to a prison car that frequently shuttles back and forth in the tunnel."
"You wait first!"
Hyrule interrupted Belling's narration, and questioned the loopholes in his words.
"You said that crystal pythons always swallow their prey alive, so how do you explain that there are still many dwarf miners slaughtered by crystal pythons? Your point of view cannot explain the slaughter scene we saw with our own eyes."
"Little girl, please use your brain! Crystal pythons tend to give priority to swallowing their prey alive, but it doesn't mean they won't kill people!"
Belling snapped back angrily.
"Although our dwarves are short in stature, we don't lack the courage to protect our companions. Seeing our teammates being swallowed by the crystal python, of course we have to attack the crystal python and try to rescue the companions swallowed by it!"
"It's a pity that most of my compatriots lack the strength commensurate with their courage. Forcibly blocking the crystal python will not only fail to rescue the swallowed companion, but will also anger the cold-blooded monster and cause him to be killed..."
Belling said quietly.
Joan nodded. In his opinion, Belling's remarks were logical, and could provide a reasonable explanation for the two dwarf leather boots Hyrule found in the crystal python's belly.
"Ever since I discovered that crystal pythons have the habit of swallowing their prey alive, I've become curious. I really want to know where they send the dwarves they swallow and what they want to do." Belling returned to the topic and continued: "In order to understand To solve this mystery, I must try to get close to the crystal python."
"How did you do it?" Audrey asked.
"The first thing I thought of was to use spells of the charm control system to deceive the trust of the crystal python, such as the 4th-level spell 'Charm Monster'."
"This is a very good idea, worth trying." Joan commented softly, her eyes sparkling.
"Unfortunately, I am a professional 'Illusionist', and I have already opposed the School of Enchantment. In order to cast 'Charm Monster', I have to pay double the spell slots." Belling shrugged, and continued: "However, , I still have to keep trying! For this purpose, I copied several scrolls of 'Charm Monster', and every time I encounter a crystal python, I will always cast this spell."
"My luck is not very good. I failed in the first three spellcastings. Not only did I fail to charm the crystal pythons, but it also greatly angered them."
"The three teams you stayed in before and after were also unlucky because of this. They were massacred by the furious crystal python, causing countless casualties, isn't that right?" Hailaer complained without losing the opportunity.
Belling smiled awkwardly, didn't take her word for it, and continued: "It wasn't until I was kicked out of the team by the idiot Ryan that it was a turn of events. In the extreme danger of encountering the crystal python alone, I finally used the 'charm monster' 'Successfully broke through its will defense and won its trust!"
Speaking of this, Belling turned around and walked towards the crystal python coiled into a snake formation, and patted the monster affectionately, his face full of pride.
The crystal python lowered its head and gently rubbed the dwarf mage's shoulder with its threaded horns. It could be seen that it was indeed very friendly to Belling.
"Berlin, it's really gratifying to successfully charm a crystal python, but I still don't understand why you got into the crystal python's stomach?" Holden asked.
"My brother, isn't the answer obvious?"
Belling jumped to his feet with excitement, asking and answering himself in an exaggerated fashion.
"Only by getting into the belly of the crystal python, can I sneak into the nest of the crystal python without anyone noticing, find my compatriots who were swallowed alive by the crystal python, find out where they were sent to in the end, and wait for them What is your fate!"
"If my compatriots kidnapped by the crystal python are still alive, then I will try to rescue them from the crystal python's lair!"
"Just imagine, old fellows! When I led all the kidnapped compatriots to successfully escape from the crystal python's lair and return to the base camp of the prospecting team, the expressions on the idiot Ryan's group must be very exciting!"
"At that time, everyone will have to admit the fact that I, Bellin, have never been a disaster star. On the contrary, standing in front of them is a hero with both wisdom and courage!"
"I don't lack imagination, Belling, but I really can't imagine the glorious scene where you are honored as a hero by the dwarves, but it is not difficult to imagine your miserable end. To be honest, I think you are on the road to death run wildly."
Holden smiled wryly.
"With your own strength, even if you successfully infiltrate the crystal python's lair, it will be difficult to do anything. If you can save your own life, you are worthy of thanks to the gods. It is purely impractical to talk about rescuing the kidnapped clansmen. delusion."
"I admit that my plan is a little crazy, and it is indeed a little risky, but it is different now. I used to fight alone, no matter what kind of risks I face, I can only bear it by myself. Now with you With the help of a group of old guys, we have a great chance of winning!"
Belling waved his fist, looking confident.
"Wait first! Who promised to go crazy with you? I'm not tired of living yet!" Hailar said angrily.
"Actually, think about it carefully. Although Belling's plan is a bit risky, it is not completely unfeasible..."
Holden seemed to be moved by Belling's words, showing an eager look.
"I don't think so!" Audrey said decisively: "This is too risky, it is safer for us to act according to the original plan!"
"Your original plan, if I'm not mistaken, is probably to follow the crystal python and sneak into the lair where the captives are held?"
Belling shook his head and sneered, with a hint of mockery in his words.
"There are often crystal pythons coming and going in this tunnel, if you continue to move forward, you will encounter crystal pythons sooner or later, and conflicts will be inevitable.
"Once a fight starts, it will surely arouse the vigilance of other crystal pythons passing by, and they will rush to watch. No matter how powerful you are, how many crystal pythons can you withstand the siege?"
"this……"
Audrey was speechless, and had to admit that Belling's analysis was indeed reasonable, and couldn't help being shaken in her heart.
