Chapter 559: Deep Into the Snake Cave

"Are you afraid of snakes?"

Early the next morning, Duanmuhuai called Lorena and Mary over and asked them this question.

"Uh... I don't like it."

"me too."

It was obvious that neither man liked snakes, and the problem was...

"Afraid?"

"I'm not afraid of that."

Lorena answered quickly, which is normal. After all, she often travels around, and she must have encountered snakes frequently. I'm afraid she is used to it.

"I...don't know, I have never encountered a snake, I only know that snakes are poisonous and dangerous animals..."

That's right, Mary doesn't look like the kind of lady who would run around casually.

"This time our goal is this..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai explained the situation about the snake people to the two of them. When they learned that there was such a long-established race entrenched below the town, both of them were surprised.

"Snake people...are we going to fight against such a race?"

"Yes, completely annihilate them, this is our purpose."

"But there are only three of us."

"You can rest assured about this."

Facing Mary's curious inquiry, Duanmuhuai showed a meaningful smile.

"We're not just three people."

“……………???”

After eating breakfast, Duanmuhuai took Lorena and Mary to the former Vincecott mansion - this ancient mansion still looked like it had been demolished, and the nearby warning cordon also It still exists, but judging from the fact that no police can be seen, it is obvious that this is no longer the focus of the police investigation.

Duanmuhuai passed through the cordon and came to the underground passage that Vince Scott said. At the end of the underground passage, it was indeed blocked by collapsed rubble. At least from here, it's impossible to get through.

"Wow... I didn't expect it to really collapse. Can it really be dug out?"

Looking at the tightly blocked passage in front of her, Mary couldn't help but feel distressed, while Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders.

"Just watch, it's very simple."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The next moment, dozens of dolls suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then they started acting like this.

"Hey? Hey? What is this??"

Mary was shocked when she saw the doll that suddenly appeared, but Lorena - she had seen too much and didn't take it seriously.

"Magic, haven't you also learned it?"

"Of course I know...but..."

After saying this, Mary looked at Duanmuhuai in disbelief.

"Mr. Duanmu, you actually know magic?"

"What? Doesn't it look like it?"

"………………"

Mary carefully looked at the bald man in front of her with a strong figure, muscles so tight that his shirt would tear, and a fierce look on his face...

Frankly speaking, it doesn't really look like it.

"I thought all magicians were like Miss Lani..."

In comparison, Lani fits the image of a magician in Mary's imagination. Wearing a witch-like hat, cloak, and holding a staff, she always sits on a chair and looks very wise.

"In this day and age, how can a magician not know how to fight in close combat? Didn't you also learn how to fight in close combat?"

"Uh...that's true..."

In fact, most of what Mary learned from Lani was in the close combat mode. For example, magic like the Kaliya Swift Sword or the Kaliya Great Sword basically just uses magic power to condense the blade, and then relies on it. own melee skills. But because Kallia's magic itself was so gorgeous, Mary ignored it.

"Could it be said that all magicians are like this?"

"Of course. Let me tell you, the so-called Archmage just learns the Flash Technique, then fills up the Whirlwind Slash Points, and then rushes in to chop. Isn't that the same for you?"

"……………………"

Even though she said that, Mary felt speechless when Duanmuhuai said this.

"And isn't Lorena like this too? Even though she is a priest, she can be very fierce in fights."

"Uh...that's true."

It was not that Mary had never seen Lorena fight before, and she had also seen the gorgeous priest uniform that Lorena wore several times during the battle. The white clothing was inlaid with gold rims, and the decorations were full of sacredness. Indeed, It gives people the feeling of praying and singing at an altar or in a church.

However, such a gentle girl who always smiles on weekdays can be very ferocious when fighting. Mary saw more than once the scene where she held the huge holy book in her hand and smashed the monster's brains to pieces... ...To be honest, Mary doesn't think this is something ordinary priests or priests do. Most of the priests or priests in her impression pray in churches, or cheer believers, and boost morale behind everyone's back. That feeling...huh?

Is there something wrong with my common sense? ?

Just when Mary began to wonder if there was something wrong with her common sense, the dolls had already cleared the blocked passage again.

"Okay, let's go in."

The reason for choosing this passage again is that according to the investigation report of the bell girl, there is only one road under the snake empire, one of which is the passage leading to the surface that they have been using before. The other one is here. Because it is closed, this road is actually closer to the back of the underground snake man's nest.

In other words, unlike the commonly used roads, this place is full of snake man guards and is more suitable for sneak attacks. Although it must have alarmed the snakes when Vincecott and his team came down before, considering that Vincecott blew this place up again, I am afraid that even the snake people don't think that anyone will pass through such a place again.

But it's better this way.

After passing through the collapsed passage, the group quickly found the passage leading to the underground that Vincecott said. They went forward and then came to a large hole below.

"Wow............"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Mary couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise and sighed.

When Vincecott was describing the scene before, perhaps because he was too nervous or because he didn't want to recall it, he didn't describe the scene here in detail. But for Mary, her first reaction when she saw this underground cave was...

"So beautiful..."

Yes, as Mary said, the underground cave at the moment is not just an underground cave. The walls here are smooth and neat, and there are tall stone pillars on both sides. There are complex and gorgeous carvings on the walls and stone pillars. In addition, on the walls and the ground, the mosses scattered around emit a bluish-white glow, which looks really refreshing.

"This looks like an underground relic. If it is discovered, it will definitely be excavated and studied."

As a student of the history department, Mary certainly understands how much of a sensation such a relic will cause once it is discovered.

"It depends on the situation. If everything goes well, it is not impossible to stay."

This is the civilization of the Snake Empire. Naturally, there are records about the snake god. If Duanmu Huai can successfully kill the snake god, then the records here are not impossible to leave as the results of archaeological excavation. But on the other hand, if the snake god cunningly escapes from Duanmu Huai, then Duanmu Huai will completely destroy this place.

"Okay, now is not the time to enjoy the scenery here."

Duanmu Huai lowered his voice. He had already noticed that there were several dark shadows wandering in the dark places where the light could not reach. Although he didn't know what it was, it was obvious that if he didn't speed up, he would be discovered by the snake people.

"Let's go!"

The tactics adopted by Duanmu Huai were very simple, that is, a breakthrough, directly inserted into the center, and the puppet army would follow closely behind, responsible for entanglement Those monsters who found the traces of Duanmu Huai and others, and destroy them. After all, for Duanmu Huai, as long as there are enough soul cards, he is an army alone, and there is no need to worry about this problem.

According to the results of the investigation of the bell girl, the most numerous ones here are the white-haired apes and demons, and the number of snake people is the least-this is understandable. Even those metal ribs are also let their creations guard the tombs, while they shrink in the coffins and sleep.

There were only a few snakemen guarding the nest, and there should be a leader among them. But the bell girl did not go in because she felt the danger, so she retreated decisively.

There was no way. After all, in this world, the bell girl was just a poor little cat, not a female ninja who appeared and disappeared. Otherwise, Duanmu Huai would not need to come down at all. Maybe after one night, all the snakemen in the nest would be killed by the bell girl without anyone noticing.

Now what Duanmu Huai had to do was to reach the place where the bell girl indicated that there was danger, and then kill the threat inside.

Although there was illumination from the underground moss, the whole cave was still quite dim, but this certainly did not bother Duanmu Huai and others. The azure magic light ball appeared above their heads, illuminating the road in front of them. This was one of the magics that Mary learned from Lani, starlight.

To be honest, Mary didn't learn much magic from Lani, but each of them was the essence. Starlight was responsible for lighting, calmness was responsible for stabilizing the spirit, magic radiance sword was used for long-range attacks, and Kalia Swift Sword and Great Sword were responsible for close combat. It can be said that Lani was indeed an excellent magician. Although Mary didn't learn much magic because of her limited magic power, these few magics were enough to deal with most of the difficulties she encountered.

From this point of view, Lani still valued Mary very much.

"Go this way."

There was a passage ahead, but Duanmu Huai chose the fork in the road next to it. Of course, if it was normal, he would have walked directly over, but the bell girl told him that there was a trap there - well, at this time Duanmu Huai was very happy that the bell girl existed. Although he was not afraid of most of the traps, he was also quite mortal.

"But Mr. Duanmu, there is no way ahead!"

Turning the corner and moving forward, there was an abyss that looked like a cliff.

"It's okay, get ready!"

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand, grabbed Lorena and Mary in one hand, and then jumped down!

"call-----!!"

This sudden scene also surprised Mary. She subconsciously closed her eyes and only felt the sound of wind passing by her ears. Then, with a strong impact, Duanmu Huai fell heavily to the ground. Then he put Lorena and Mary down.

"Huh........."

Lorena was used to it a long time ago. After coming down, she even stretched her waist. On the contrary, Mary sat down on the ground with a pale face.

"Duan, Mr. Duanmu, this is too dangerous! I thought I would fall to death!"

After all, there is no flying magic in the magic that Lani taught Mary.

"It's okay, you will get used to it after a few more times."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai looked forward.

"But now, let's prepare for the battle."

"Hiss hiss hiss---!"

As Duanmu Huai spoke, Mary also heard the sound coming from the darkness in front of her. She also subconsciously clenched her staff, then stood up and stared at the front.

Then, under the shining light of magic, a dark monster emerged from the shadows.
