Volume 19, Chapter 95: Treasures that Shouldn’t Appear

"Be careful, something is coming towards us." A Di Na shouted as soon as she entered the water. Because she just dived under the water when the wave on the opposite side rose, so she didn't see the rising wave.

"I've seen it." After the little dragon girl said this, she suddenly jumped forward and rushed towards the thing in the water. We only saw two huge figures suddenly colliding with each other in the water, and followed the current of the entire river. After being blocked for a moment, the erupting water wave directly lifted Grandma and I far away. However, it seemed that both of us had good underwater stability, so we rushed back as soon as the wave passed.

However, even though we rushed back, we could only reach the place where we stopped before. It was simply a delusion to try to get closer to the front. Xiao Longnu didn't know what she bumped into. The two big guys stirred up chaos under the water. The river was filled with lifted up sand and large rocks. The originally clear underground river instantly turned into a Something similar to a mudslide.

"Holy crap, what on earth did you hit and make such a big noise?"

"I don't know." A Dianna tried her best to grab a rock to stabilize herself and replied: "The sound waves over there are too 'chaotic', and my sonar doesn't work at all."

"It's really troublesome." I looked at the battlefield still splashing with water in front of me, and finally had no choice but to let Victoria go. Originally, it would be the most appropriate choice to find a helper for Little Dragon Girl at this time, but the river is not really wide, and Little Dragon Girl and that thing are not small in size. Even if I release Lucky and the others, they can't penetrate it at all. Get started, and small creatures are useless in this kind of battle, so in the end I can only choose auxiliary helpers as much as possible.

After Victoria appeared, she was surprised to find that half of her body was submerged in the water, and then she realized that she should help to increase her status first. After reacting, Victoria immediately put on her classic pose, reaching forward with her left hand to grab the bow of destiny that suddenly appeared, and then put her right hand on the non-existent bow string and quickly pulled back, a shining golden destiny. The arrow instantly appeared between her fingers, and then the entire underground river suddenly lit up, and a huge golden magic circle appeared in front of Victoria. The brilliant golden light illuminates the entire river section with splendor.

After posing, Victoria's right hand suddenly loosened, and she shouted at the same time: "Go to the Arrow of Destiny." Following the Arrow of Destiny, it instantly passed through the Wheel of Fortune in front of it and turned into a golden light and shot into the water.

Little Dragon Girl didn't even look at the golden light shot from behind. She knew the properties of the Arrow of Destiny, so she didn't care about it at all. But the monster opposite her was startled by the golden light. He twisted his body desperately and took a claw from the little dragon girl, and used the body of the little dragon girl to help him block the golden light. However, what surprised him was that the golden light actually passed through Xiao Longnu's body without being affected at all, and then accurately hit his body and instantly made him feel a feeling of weakness all over his body.

Seeing the golden light shining into the creature, Victoria smiled contemptuously. "Hmph, trying to avoid my arrow of fate is just a dream."

"What kind of attribute are you so proud of?" I looked at Victoria and asked.

Victoria heard my question and quickly replied: "I'm lucky, I got a disease attribute."

I also relaxed a lot when I heard that it was this attribute. The disease attribute of the Arrow of Destiny can disable all the target's skills, and also cause the target creature's attack power and movement speed to decrease at the same time by %. Although I haven't figured out what kind of creature it is yet, I think no matter how strong it is, I can't defeat the little dragon girl in the water, so they were evenly matched before. Now the creature's speed and attack power are suddenly weakened by %, and its skills are blocked. If it can still hold on, it will be a miracle.

Sure enough, just when Victoria was preparing the second arrow to shoot the little dragon girl, the creature suddenly threw away the little dragon girl and ran away towards the upper reaches of the river. But even though it ran away, Victoria's arrow did not stop and hit the little dragon girl directly, and then shined with a golden light.

Originally seeing the target running away, Xiao Longnu was about to chase her, but she suddenly got an Arrow of Destiny, and what was more depressing was that she was actually hit by an Arrow of Fear, although the decrease in the attributes of this Destiny was not serious. , but the key is that the speed has been weakened too much, and there is no hope of chasing it now.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Longnu, I made another mistake today!" Victoria apologized sheepishly as she looked at Xiao Longnu who resurfaced.

Xiao Longnu waved her hand helplessly and dismissed it. Anyway, the probability of Victoria's arrow of fate being fired was unreliable. It was not just a day or two, and everyone had long been used to it. To say that this skill is weak, it can sometimes have the opposite effect. It is indeed weak enough, but to say that it is strong, if the enemy is drawn with the death attribute, it will instantly kill all the gods and subordinates. Absolutely insanely strong. In addition to the top ten gods, even beings of the level of Hong Jun or the god Zeus, once hit by the arrow of death, they will be killed directly with one arrow. Moreover, this arrow of fate cannot be avoided or blocked. If Victoria can Accurately controlling this attribute is simply the number one skill below the gods. It's a pity that this Wheel of Fortune is really unreliable. It's more realistic to expect its arrows to produce death attributes than to expect your own sword to produce double critical hits.

Since that thing has run away, there is no point in chasing it now. I simply took back Victoria and moved forward with Xiao Longnu and Aina. Although Xiao Longnu was hit by the arrow of fear, her speed was much slower, but the advantage was that she was big enough, so it was not a problem to threaten some little ones. Besides, although Victoria's Arrow of Destiny cannot be automatically removed, Victoria can shorten the duration of the unwanted attributes. So as long as it takes a while, Xiao Longnu's attributes will probably return to normal.

Going upstream along the underground river, the river in front began to gradually slope downward, obviously entering deep underground. Although it is said that water flows downwards, and the terrain upstream should be higher than the terrain downstream, underground rivers may flow in the opposite direction. Unlike open surface rivers, underground rivers are often fully enclosed, and a pressure balance system similar to a U-shaped pipe can be formed inside. As long as the source of the river has relatively high terrain, no matter how deep the middle part is, the water pressure generated by the height difference in the upstream will naturally cause the water downstream to flow from low to high.

The river began to become horizontal after going all the way down for more than fifty meters. However, the width of the river here began to plummet, and the relative flow speed also increased significantly. Xiao Longnu was severely affected by the water flow here because she was too big, so I simply took her back. A Dianna and I were less affected because our bodies were relatively small, but now even we can't If we swim upstream in the water, we can only crawl upstream by holding on to the cave wall with both hands. The thrust generated by swimming with our wings or tail can only keep us in place and not be washed away. If we want to move forward, that's it. Something that is simply impossible.

After crawling forward on hands and feet for a while, the river finally reached the narrowest mouth, where the entire river was shrunk into a small hole with a diameter of just over one meter. Don’t think that a hole with a diameter of more than one meter is no longer small. That's right, if you want to get through a person, one meter in diameter is really not small. Even if it is half a meter in diameter, anyone who is not a big fat person can still squeeze through. However, you must know that the river downstream is more than fifty meters wide and thirty meters deep. Such a large river has been reduced to a small hole with a diameter of only one meter. Even if the original river flow is not fast, The water flow in this hole will definitely not be much lower than the flow rate of the fire brigade's high-pressure water cannon. In addition, even if we can continue to move forward at that flow rate, we will never be able to pass through the hole, because once our body enters the hole, it is equivalent to blocking half of the hole entrance, and the water flow will become more turbulent by then. Even if I use eternity as a grappling hook to hit the rock, I probably can't expect to be able to fix myself. Therefore, trying to squeeze through this hole is simply an impossible task. And... "Where did that big guy go?"

Although I didn't see clearly what it was that was fighting with Little Dragon Girl just now, I could still vaguely see that it was a long creature with a snake-like body, and the size of that thing was no bigger than that of Little Dragon Girl. The body is much smaller. So how did the big guy squeeze through the small hole with a diameter of less than one meter in front of him? Could it be that it's made of sponge?

"No, there must be a side road ahead that we missed. Ah Di Na, use sonar to check."

A Dianna answered directly without even checking: "I have been checking the surface of the river on the way here, and I did not find any forks. The creature either changed its shape and got through the hole, or it entered the forks. The fork in the road was sealed with something so I couldn’t check it out.”

After hearing what A Di Na said, I also thought of this possibility. After all, sonar is no better than human eyes. If the creature sealed the entrance of the cave with a big stone, it would really be impossible to detect it. However, as the most powerful trainer in the game, I can naturally give full play to the versatility of a trainer. Although Ariana's sonar doesn't work anymore, I still have other magic pets.

"Chili." Following my call, Chili immediately appeared next to me, and then at my request, she began to use her mental power to explore the nearby cave wall. According to Chili herself, her mental power can penetrate into the rock to a depth of eight to ten meters, which means that unless the guy can use an eight to ten meter cylindrical plug to block the front section of the real fork, otherwise there is no way Hoping to evade Chili Pepper's mental scan.

Sure enough, after we 'groped' back along the river for more than ten meters, Chili immediately pointed to the top of the cave more than ten meters ahead and shouted: "There is a branch road over there."

As soon as we heard Chili's guidance, Grandma and I swam there immediately, but after circling the roof of the cave twice, I couldn't see where there was a fork in the road.

"Pepper, where is the fork in the road? Why can't you see it?"

Chili pointed at a slightly protruding rock above our heads and said, "That's it. It blocks the entrance of the cave."

When I heard Chili's words, I quickly went over and pushed it up. Unfortunately, I couldn't use my strength in the water, and the thing didn't even sway at all.

Chili saw that I couldn't push the thing and said, "This rock is very big. I may need help from Lucky and the others."

I nodded and asked Auntina and Chili to step back, and then summoned Lucky. Because it is big enough, Lucky can step on the river bed with its hind legs, and then use its shoulders and forearms to push against the stone. Even if you don't consider the issue of strength, this method of exerting force is much more convenient than mine.

With Lucky's sudden force, there was a "boom" sound, and the boulder was pushed upwards. We immediately felt a stream of water flowing out from the gaps around the rock, but Lucky was stuck there. Can't push it up any more.

"Lucky, lift up the rock? Why did you stop?" Looking at Lucky, who was relieved of the rock again, I asked in confusion.

Before Lucky could answer, Aina took the first step and explained to him: "Master, it can't be opened at all. The passage above is a straight pipe, and this rock just seals the narrowest part at the bottom of the pipe. At the exit, to remove the stone, you have to push the stone all the way up the tubular river, and then you can't remove it until you reach an open river section."

"What? How can there be such a river? How long is it above?"

"Almost three hundred meters."

"So long?"

A Di Na nodded: "The nearest open water is three hundred meters away from the cave entrance. As long as you get there, you can lift the rocks."

Grandma just finished her words here, and Lucky continued what Grandma said: "I say boss, there is no place to use my strength in these three hundred meters. I can't push it by myself!"

I looked at Lucky and then at Aina, and finally said angrily: "This damn monster is deliberately forcing me to use a trick! You all go back to the training space first, and I will blow up this damn rock."

Although it is not easy to push this stone to the other end of the passage with my strength, it is too easy to dismantle it. After taking back the demon pets, I directly used Eternity to open three holes in the stone, and then stuffed three magic crystal steam bombs into them. Finally, I hid far away and gave myself a bunch of defensive skills before taking them. Press out the detonating crystal.

Boom, all the players along the underground river saw the river water spurting upwards. Many people standing by the river were soaked in an instant, but no one complained, because these people thought it was me and The monsters that attacked the exploration team started fighting and caused such a big commotion.

After the river water stabilized, I quickly swam back to the fork. At this time, most of the rocks blocking the road had been blown away, but the strange thing was that the last remaining small piece was obviously much narrower than the passage. But it still didn't fall down. I swam to the small half of the rock in confusion, and then I was surprised to find that a chain was actually driven into the rock, and the other end of the chain extended to the top of the channel. Obviously this thing cannot be natural, which means that the stone blocking the road was specially prepared. The other party even designed a chain to tie it behind in order to avoid the stone falling.

Although I knew that the monster would block roads with rocks before, I didn't think about it having high intelligence. But now it seems that this thing doesn't just have high intelligence. Being able to process something like a stone chain already shows that this thing has the ability to use complex tools. At least the chain is different from ordinary sticks and swords. Its structure is more complex and cannot be made by low-level intelligence. Of course, there is another possibility that the monster's intelligence is actually very average, the thing was made by someone else, and it just made use of ready-made items. However, although this hypothesis is possible, I think it is unlikely.

No matter what, we have to find that guy first to figure out the reason. Around the small half of the rock, I suddenly opened my wings and vigorously flapped the water to accelerate my body upwards.

Although the channel blocked by rocks is more than 300 meters long, its angle is tilted upward. If the vertical drop is calculated, the top of the channel may be 70 or 80 meters higher than the bottom. Counting the previous Due to the downward slope of the underground river, the top of this channel should be exactly at the same height as the water level of the underground river on the other side of the City of Chaos.

Swimming along the channel to the end, the water channel suddenly expanded around to form a pond-like area. However, the area of ​​this area is not too large, it is just wider than the passage below.

When I floated to the top of the pond, I found that I had entered the air again. The area around the pond was not a water environment, but a land cave. However, because the water in the pond was still more than four meters high from the shore, I was Only the roof of the cave can be seen in the water, and nothing on the shore can be seen at all.

Raise your hand to 'shoot' a dragon tendon rope to the roof of the cave, and then use the take-up device to lift yourself out of the water. When my height exceeded the rocks on the shore of the pond, the scene inside the cave finally came into my sight.

"Holy shit, I'm getting rich now!" I just felt my eyes hurt from the flash as I climbed to the top of the cave. This entire cave is actually full of crystals, white, black, and colorful. Almost all the crystal varieties I know can be found here. Although many of the crystals are of the type that are produced in large quantities and are relatively cheap, those few special crystals alone are definitely worth a windfall. But... what I mean by getting rich is not these crystals, but the thing that makes these crystals shine with dazzling light.

As I said before, my eyes hurt from the flash when I first reached the top of the cave. Although crystals are very reflective, even if there are crystals everywhere in this cave, there should be no reflections. Now these crystals are indeed reflecting light, so there must be a light source here, and when I really see that light source When I found out what it was, I felt my whole body shaking with excitement.

"Sunny, how could such a thing exist in such a ghost place?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation at *** (***.***), *** , your support is my biggest motivation.)
