Adventurer of the Elf World

The pangolin that was still advancing suddenly stopped, stood up, and looked around cautiously. When it was sure that there was no threat, it took Xiu to change direction again.

Then Xiu saw a strange scene.

The pangolin led it to the dense bush, and then it got into it on its own, and soon it made no sound.

Xiu showed a curious expression on his face, and then he also got in. At first, he felt like he was being scratched by the branches. It was so dense that even he didn't dare to let go of his hands blocking the front, but the surroundings soon became dim. , his steps fell into the air, and all the feelings on his body disappeared, but he didn't react and fell into it.

Xiu's balance ability is quite good. He reacted as soon as he felt the weightlessness and stabilized his body, which prevented his head from falling downwards.

It was pitch dark all around, so Xiu could only fumble and take out the small lamp, only to realize that he had fallen into a pit about two meters deep, and the mountain rat was watching him.

"Why don't you tell me first~"

The pangolin couldn't refute, but just looked at Xiu blankly, with a little doubt in his two little eyes.

Seeing it like this, Xiu could only wave his hand helplessly, then stood up and looked around.

There was an almost vertical entrance, and a long tunnel extended from the back. It was a bit low and he had to bend down to move around.

Judging from the traces of construction, they should have been there for a while, and if they were not formed innately, they could only be the day after tomorrow. They should have been dug out by some elf.

As for why Xiu didn't confirm that it was dug by the mountain rat, it was because the scratches on the wall didn't match.

"Lead the way." Xiu's adventurous spirit is eager to try.

What lies behind the ancient and mysterious tunnel?

The pangolin didn't know why Xiu suddenly became excited, but he still led the way honestly.

While walking and practicing, I observed the surrounding situation, trying to restore what kind of elf it was originally, how it was dug out, and what is its function?

But it was a pity that nothing was found. There was almost no difference in the size of the tunnels. To him, they were all low. After the baptism of time, the traces left on them could no longer be distinguished from their original appearance, except for some grass fragments. Just the mushrooms growing in the corners.

It's just that the mushrooms here have become dry and look like a black match.

Because he couldn't tell what it was, out of habit, Xiu collected a lot of them and planned to give them to professionals to study, and maybe he would make some new discoveries.

At first, Xiu was still in the mood to observe slowly, but later on, he just walked away. They were all the same tunnels with nothing, and even the best patience was worn out.

After walking around for a long time, Xiu felt that he was a little confused. Fortunately, the mountain rat leading the way stopped and pointed forward.

Xiu noticed its movements, quickly pushed the lamp forward, and noticed something strange in front of him.

A smaller passage, Xiu felt that he might have to climb in if he wanted to leave.

It's fine if you force your way in, but then it will be difficult to respond if something goes wrong.

"Is there another way? I can't get in here."

The pangolin stood up, looked back at Xiu, scratched his belly with two paws, and then looked around.

After a few seconds, he turned around and ran back.

Xiu saw that he could only follow it, not knowing where it would take him...

The originally quiet mountain forest began to become noisy with the influx of a large number of humans, and the sounds of fighting could be heard from time to time. This was the resistance of the local elves. Some succeeded in driving the humans out, while others failed.

The struggle between the two sides will not end anytime soon, and will even become more intense as the areas of human exploration expand.

Of course, there are also struggles between people, which are even more cruel.

This struggle for human interests is also the struggle for survival of the elves.

The contradiction between the two sides is irreconcilable, and the barbarity is exposed at this moment.

But this has nothing to do with Xiu, he is still digging holes hard now.

Finally, the mountain rat's claws pierced the already fragile wall, revealing a large hole.

"Ah~ It's really difficult." Xiu put down the small shovel in his hand, then slumped down on the ground, observing the place with the help of the lamp hanging on his body.

This is the burrow of the mountain rats. They go around in the ground and then find the nearest passage to dig it.

It was really hard to dig here, and the distance added up to hundreds of meters intermittently. If it weren't for the strength of the mountain rat, he might not have been able to get here after digging for a week.

This cave is very small, only about three cubic meters, and it is a horizontal oval shape. The highest point is only about one meter and three meters high.

Xiu could only sit in and come in. The connecting passages here were a bit outrageous. There were actually six passages in such a small place, and now the one just dug was added to it.

There's nothing superfluous, but there's a lot of rocks, and they're all a little weird.

Xiu did not rush to check the stones, but released Casey.

The already cramped space suddenly became even more uncomfortable.

Fortunately the ventilation was good, otherwise the person would have been suffocated to death.

"Check what's going on around you and see if there's anything unusual."

Xiu left instructions to Casey before focusing on the stones.

He took over a three-finger-sized stone. It was as black as ink and quite heavy-handed. It didn't feel like an ordinary stone, but there were no bite marks on it.

Then he took out the gnawed meteorite from his pocket.

There was no difference between the two, and the materials were extremely similar.

Could this be the reason?

But how could an iron meteorite arouse its appetite?

After the sandalwood bit it open, Xiu further confirmed that the meteorite was an ordinary iron meteorite, and it should be nothing special~

Thinking back to what the sandalwood said before, what attracted it, and then it disappeared after a while.

Is it the special energy contained in the meteorite?

Xiu immediately thought of the [cosmic power] that old Picosi said.

Could it be that the meteorite was contaminated with this power when it fell, and then attracted the sandalwood to devour it, but this power will slowly dissipate, so that situation will occur.

In other words, what the sandalwood needs is [cosmic power], not meteorites?

But why is there only one sandalwood in such a large mountain like Yuejian?

What about the others?

Xiu always felt that he had grasped something, but it was not coherent.

"How is it?" Xiu looked at Casey, "Did you find anything?"

Direct telepathy, Xiu obtained the surrounding situation.

In the outside world, Casey can control a maximum of one kilometer in radius, but underground this range is greatly reduced, and he can only see about two hundred meters in radius if he tries his best.
