Otherworldly Mysterious Gate

Lin Shu had another round with Pharaoh and Li Xiaoxin after the timer went round.

"Okay, we can take a break."

Lin Shu's words let Li Xiaoxin and Zhou Wenxuan breathe a sigh of relief. After walking for so long, the two girls were both tired. As soon as Lin Shu's words fell, the fatigue of the two of them immediately surged. Old Wang just found a place to sit down and turned the page. I started to eat the high-energy food in the bag, and drank a sip of fine wine from time to time, looking extremely enjoying it.

Lin Shu cast a contemptuous glance. The powerhouses of the eighth level don’t need high-energy food to supplement their physical strength at all. They can absorb energy from the outside world. Drinking is nothing more than enjoying food. But high-energy food tastes sweet, so what’s so good about it? What about food?

Li Xiaoxin glanced at Lin Shu, pulled Zhou Wenxuan aside, sat on the ground and whispered, the so-called whispering in front of Lao Wang and Lin Shu didn't exist at all, it was just deceiving himself, but Lao Wang didn't have the time to eavesdrop now , and Lin Shu had no interest in hearing the little secrets between the girls. [

"Did you get rid of it?"

Lao Wang glanced at Lin Shu with some dissatisfaction. Lin Shu pretended not to see him, nodded and said, "I haven't followed up for the time being, but this can only delay, and it can't completely get rid of their pursuit."

"Isn't that exactly what you wanted?"

Lin Shu snorted: "I don't have this expectation at all, I just hope that nothing happens, so that I can spend my time in the library and laboratory with peace of mind, or follow Chairman Xiang to explore the ancient ruins, you forgot me again Not a battle mage?"

Lao Wang smiled, but he despised Lin Shu in his heart. How many battle magicians would be ashamed to death by such words.

"Let's stop talking nonsense. What are you going to do, young master? In fact, they don't seem to give up on the mission. It will be a matter of time. No matter what, there must be a decision. In fact, after thinking about it, you seem to have no choice but to One of Nai's choices is to kill these three guys! In that case, why not just start earlier?"

Lin Shu nodded, hesitated for a while and said: "Yes, that's true. In fact, their fate was doomed from the very beginning. The only difference is the difference in time, but this difference is still very big. What do you think of losing contact with your companions only after reaching the depths of the cave, compared to being killed within a known range?"

"So that's how it is, to keep the people above suspicious!"

"That's right, we have no way of grasping the situation above. We can only try to keep it in its original state as much as possible. Can we still make a hole to go up?"

Li Xiaoxin, who had been listening for a long time, asked qgu: "Why can't you dig a hole?"

Lin Shu turned his head and said: "Girl, how deep are we going deep into the ground now? Besides, there is the sea above our heads. It is really unpredictable what will happen if we dig a hole. If this risk can be avoided, I still hope to avoid it. You What do you think?"

Li Xiaoxin stuck out her tongue, and walked for a full day, with the footsteps of several people, one can imagine how deep the ground was.

"Lin Shu, sir, where are their traces?"

Zhou Wenxuan's question reminded everyone of the purpose of coming here. Since entering the cave, the sudden changes made everyone seem to forget the original purpose of coming here. Now Zhou Wenxuan's words finally awakened them.

"Hehe, everything is under control."

Lin Shu's answer seemed too relaxed, so relaxed that it made people feel unreliable. Just imagine, Li Sixian and his wife entered the cave two days earlier than Lin Shu and others, and in order to avoid being tracked, they must try their best to eliminate their traces. Those guys who are proficient in tracking have not been able to find their traces, so what magical skills does Lin Shu have that can easily say what he just said?

However, the three people who listened to these words all believed it. Of course, their reasons must be different.

"Actually, I'm more concerned about another thing."

"what?"[

"How do you say this cave was formed?"

Old Wang's face was also a little heavy: "Eldest young master also thinks this is very important?"

"Well, it's okay if it's artificial, but if it's not, things might be in trouble."

Li Xiaoxin and Zhou Wenxuan couldn't keep up with their train of thought, and they were a little confused when they heard what they said, but soon they thought of what Lin Shu wanted to express.

It would be fine if it was excavated manually. No matter who excavated it, it seems that they are not there now, but if it is not man-made, then it can only be made by monsters. Thinking about the monsters that can do such a huge project, it seems None of them are good people.

What's worse is that the monsters that can do this kind of big project can only be large groups of monsters that live in groups. Once the monsters are in groups, it means trouble!

Lao Wang knocked on the hard ground and said, "Young Master, you have been paying attention to the situation on the ground, right? Have you seen what kind of masterpiece it is?"

"No, what about you, what do you see?"

"I've seen a few caves of this size, one time when we were exploring the nest of giant legion ants, we lost three of our companions that time, that damn thing..."

Lao Wang's tone was very light, but the heaviness contained in it was like a boulder pressing on everyone's hearts. Lao Wang paused for a moment, and the silence at this moment made the air stagnate. It seemed that Lao Wang's deep emotions had disappeared. Some mysterious channel seeps into the surrounding air.

"The second time I saw such a complicated maze was on the northern prairie, where a kind of social beast known as the gold mouse also likes to dig a huge maze. For them, the underground is the whole world."

"Gold Rat, as far as I know, the size of the Rat doesn't need to dig such a huge tunnel, right?"

"Young master, what you saw was an ordinary gold-hidden mouse. There are mutated gold-hidden mice on the northern grasslands. They are the size of a calf. The diameter of the cave dug out is more than two meters, and the walls of the cave have been reinforced by magic. Like this, but not as smooth."

"Listen to you, isn't this cave built by these two monsters?"

"It's not like that. The diameter of the legion ants' caves will change. The main road is wider, and the side branches are narrower. As for the Tibetan gold rats, the tunnels they built have obvious paw prints."

"Then is there anything closer to this authentic situation?"

"Speaking of it, this is a bit like the masterpiece of the magic worm, but the body surface of the magic worm has obvious secretions, which are easy to see after the cave wall is dry, and it also has the fragrance of qgu, two ladies, what do you like? Perfume Mystery No. [-] is said to be the secretion of this magic worm as the main material."

Li Xiaoxin smiled, she doesn't like perfume at all, because it's not a good habit to use perfume when working in a laboratory.

Lin Shu nodded. Although Lao Wang couldn't judge what kind of monster's masterpiece this mysterious cave was, he also believed that it was a monster. In addition, Lao Wang's words implied that this regular circular cave should be It is produced by a regular and smooth animal.

Lin Shu thought for a while about the caves he saw, especially the location of the fork, which seemed to have some meaning. The subtle corners at many fork points can indicate that the body length of this animal may be relatively long.

"So, it may be a new species that has not been discovered?"

"Hehe, this world is so big, it doesn't matter if it's a new species, not to mention, this is the bottom of the sea." [

"You mean, maybe it's a creature in the sea? If so, there should be water here?"

"Who said that the creatures in the sea must be water. As far as I know, there are several kinds of creatures that will leave the seawater environment when they reproduce. Besides, we know very little about the creatures in the sea, so don't jump to conclusions so quickly!"

Lin Shu nodded: "Okay, you're right, Xiaoxin, Wenxuan, take a nap or meditate to recover your spirits, it takes four hours, I will go to the front to set up a warning device, Lao Wang, please go to the back to check .”

The two left quickly, and there were only two girls left at the fork in the size of more than ten square meters. The two looked at each other, and they were a little bit suspicious, but now it is better to take the time to rest, and you will definitely not be able to sleep. That's right, both of them chose to practice meditation, Zhou Wenxuan was practicing mana, and Li Xiaoxin was practicing the art of refining gods.

When they woke up again, four hours had passed, and the people who recovered their spirit and physical strength started to set off again. They walked for more than an hour under Lin Shu's leadership. Lin Shu suddenly pointed to the corner and said, "There are bugs over there." .”

Everyone stopped, Lao Wang took a closer look and said, "It's an ordinary ant, but there are ants in such a deep place?"

"Ants are omnivorous, and their vitality is extremely strong, so they are not qgu, right?" Although Li Xiaoxin studies plants, she naturally knows the symbiotic animals of plants.

"Miss, what needs to be paid attention to is, what do they eat? Is there anything to eat in such a deep underground? Plants? There are only sporadic plants at the beginning of the road, and no life has been seen since then."

Lin Shu squatted down and looked carefully for a while and said: "It's fungi, there are fungi here, maybe there is groundwater here, there are still some fungi that can grow in places with no light at all, it just feels weird, why is it only here only?"

The old Wang said: "What exactly does the young master want to say?"

"I would like to say that since there is life, there should be more life. If the place we walked before is a place that has been abandoned, it is likely to be close to the area where they are active."

"Brother, do you mean the owner of the cave?"

"Correct!"

A trace of uneasiness flashed in Li Xiaoxin's eyes. Although Zhou Wenxuan tried her best to endure it, her clenched fists still revealed her nervousness. Lao Wang also put away his smile, looking a little heavy.

"Brother, my parents, them"

"Don't worry, I guess uncle and aunt probably came down because they knew about this kind of animal, and it's even more telling if they dare to go deep. Xin, you don’t have to worry at all, I think my uncle and aunt even have the idea of ​​using these animals to snipe the pursuers.” (To be continued...)
