"Of course..." Yayin tilted her head and said in a playful tone that made people think the sun was rising in the west, "It's you!"
"Pfft..." Callidora didn't hold back and laughed on the spot.
The corners of Mowente's raised mouth slowly dropped visibly to the naked eye, revealing an OAO.
"What the hell, me?" Mowente said in shock, "No, I'm not saying that I don't want to pull. I can pull, but I can only pull a little. This is not an ice surface. Pulling on this kind of mud is very difficult. .”
"It's okay, as long as you can pull it, we will help you solve the difficult problem," Yayin said with a smile, "Anyway, since you agreed, let's go chop down trees and make sleds!"
----
----
In fact, as Mowente said, muddy ground is not like ice. In addition to the resistance of the soil itself, the weeds growing on it, various gravels, unevenness, mud pits and other messy things will all affect it. The smoothness of gliding.
However, if it is mud surfing, it is a different matter.
On the way, Liu Ji once showed Yayin that he had become a water element.
Although Liu Ji's magic level is infinitely close to that of a kindergarten child if his vocabulary is ignored, elemental elves are elemental elves and always have privileges that humans cannot reach.
As mentioned before, magic power can, in a sense, be regarded as the salary paid to the elemental spirits when using magic.
As for things like pure elemental elves, they are awesome because they can be used for free.
After all, we are all elemental elves, and I am here to work hard. When we are working as workers, why should I pay you wages, right?
Of course, it is said to be free prostitution, but it is limited to the simplest element manipulation. If you want to build magic, there will be other magic costs. Liu Ji has to pay for that part of the magic power himself. This is why the mage usually needs to summon pure elves to assist in casting spells. Infuse it with a lot of magic power as its core.
But in short, if it was just condensing water elements to help brush and lubricate the floor, it would cost Liu Ji almost nothing.
In this case, the only price they paid for their journey was Mowente's physical strength.
Of course, Callidora can actually help him, but with his character, he would rather carry it alone than let Callidora help.
That's fine. Facing this unknown swamp, the more people can maintain a good state, the better they will be able to cope with emergencies.
only……
As the only person present with the carpenter skill, Mo Wente looked at the wood in front of him and always felt something strange...
After all, the work of pulling a sled is usually done by animals, although at this time he wouldn't care about it...
But, for some reason, as soon as he picked up the saw, a strange picture of a horse picking up the saw appeared in his mind.
61. The children were so frightened at the second watch that they lost their temper.
But no matter what, Mowente still made the sled and the leather rope used to pull the sled within two days.
And because he made it for himself, Mowente could also try to pull it while he was doing it, and adjust the slide to the most comfortable state for pulling it.
Ok……
Damn it, the horse with the saw shows up again.
Others are not idle these days either.
Liu Ji is doing psychological work for the potatoes. Ever since they witnessed the terrifying monster being burnt to char by Ya Yin that day, these potatoes have become a little autistic.
It is unclear whether they were frightened by the monster or Yayin. Anyway, they huddled together all day long and huddled in the basket. No matter how Liu Ji called them, they refused to come out.
Unless...well, they do come out for a while when there are leftovers.
It was only in the past two days that others found out that these potatoes could still eat.
Moreover, he didn't use his mouth when eating and applied it directly to his body. This directly caused everyone to look at Liu Ji strangely in the past two days, as if they were thinking about whether Liu Ji could eat like this.
Yayin and Aosa continued to try to capture the monsters in the swamp. In the past two days, she tried two more advanced traps, but found nothing.
Osa even got angry one day, saying that he couldn't bear to let the child trap the wolf, so he took the initiative to put his hand into the swamp as a bait. At that time, everyone was frightened, but nothing happened.
The monsters in the swamp seem to be completely intimidated. They don't even dare to take a chance these days, and there are no particularly powerful individuals like before who deliberately seek trouble.
Jilunini has been a little strange recently. He often stands alone on the city wall, his eyes flashing slightly red, scanning this strange swamp.
When asked what she was doing, she only said that she was confirming some things, but there was no result yet.
Callidora was worried that she would end up in the same situation as Ossa, and she had been watching her these days.
But no matter what everyone was doing before, in short, now that Wente had prepared the sled, it was time for everyone to set off.
After replenishing a round of supplies, packing their things, and using the map and the ruins of the bridge to determine the direction, everyone got on the sled.
In order to save effort when pulling it up, the slide made by Mowente is not big, but it is relatively long. If everyone wants to, they can even lie down and sleep on it.
Mowente spread his wings and put on the reins he had made for himself.
Ok……
When Mo Wente thought about this, he felt that something was wrong...
Turning back and giving a thumbs up to Liu Ji, Liu Ji also understood and handed the basket of potatoes to Ao Sa, and then his whole person gradually became transparent.
After a short time, it became invisible, and then, a group of liquid condensed in the air and turned into a state similar to a human form.
The elemental spirit itself is actually transparent and invisible, but after all, when it comes to exercise, Liu Ji is still used to the human body, so he condenses such an entity with water to facilitate himself to control this special body more freely.
Then, Liu Ji gently pushed forward with both hands, and a stream of water appeared directly under the skid, washing and moistening the road below the skid and in front of it.
Not only that, he also let a ball of clear water wrap the bottom of the slide, which makes the slide move smoother.
Ok……
It should be smoother, who knows, in short Liu Ji can only do this, and the rest can only rely on Mo Wente himself.
Mowente took a deep breath, shook his head, kicked the horse holding the saw out of his mind, then took a deep breath, flapped his wings, and flew up with the reins on his back.
----

The journey to Swamp Whirlpool City was unexpectedly much smoother than everyone expected.
During this period, they also encountered monsters that stretched out their black beards and wanted to attack them, but they were easily repelled by the magic released by Ya Yin. The dangerous individuals like before never appeared again.
That is to say, Mo Wente was exhausted throughout the whole journey. Although Liu Ji helped to lubricate the ground, the plants and gravel that emerged from the ground still brought a lot of resistance. The stumbling often disrupted Mo Wente's flying rhythm. He had to stop and rest from time to time.
Callidora wanted to help, but as everyone expected, Mervent wouldn't let her go at all. On the contrary, when Callidora mentioned this matter, he would force her to fly a little longer. After a few times, Callidora On the contrary, I didn’t dare to mention it.
I didn't dare to mention it, and I felt distressed, so I could only give Mowente some more blessings and acceleration magic on the way. In a sense, it actually made everyone move much faster.
In just five days, everyone crossed this huge swamp and arrived at the rumored entrance to the Swamp City - the Square of the Earth God Statue.
In the information about the mass, standing here is a giant icon of Kaga, the God of the Earth, whom the Earthwalker clan has believed in since its birth. Below the icon is a huge hemispherical building, inside which the Earthwalkers entertain foreign guests. It was a guest house at that time, and the huge spiral staircase leading to the underground vortex city was inside that building.
Mass also said that this place used to be extremely lively. There was a large beautiful stone tile floor outside the hemispheric building. It would be filled with various stalls and vendors selling rare items and food from all over the world. If he hadn't been able to leave, He must come here every day...
"But..." Liu Ji looked at the scene in front of him and sighed, "Looking at the situation, you probably won't be able to come and visit."
They did arrive at the square on the map. The large stone tile floor and the iconic hemispherical building were still there, but...
The stone brick floor had long since become dilapidated, with depressions and huge cracks everywhere. The hemispherical building had also been broken through, leaving two large holes for ventilation, covered with moss and vines.
As for the legendary huge statue, only one leg is still standing at this moment, and the entire body has disappeared.
And the lively scene he yearned for...
Ah.
Looking up, I couldn't find even a hair on any living thing in this huge square. Where were the people and vendors?
"This place is really desolate," Mowente said, taking off the reins from his body, lying directly on the flat stone ground, breathing heavily, "Ha... look at this, the city below It’s a very bad situation.”
"Well, indeed," Osa walked up to him and said in a feigned distress, "If that city is destroyed, we might have to leave immediately."
"You big cat!" Mowente glared at Ao Sa fiercely, "Can't you say something nice?"
"Haha, I'm sorry, but didn't I just follow what you said?" Ao Sa said, squatting down and handing the water bag to Mowente.
There was plenty of water here anyway, so Mowente didn't intend to save anything. He opened the water bag, just lay there, raised the water bag and poured it into his mouth, drinking water and washing his face in one go.
At this moment, Callidora's exclamation suddenly came from behind the two of them.
"Ah! Osa! Look at your backpack!" she shouted anxiously, "There's something wrong with those little guys!"
Ao Sa was startled, and quickly took off the basket and looked inside. Unexpectedly, all the little potatoes in the basket had their eyes wide open, lying in a mess, motionless.
62. These little chic little things in the middle of the night look real.
This is probably the most extreme performance of Potato Boy.
Although Liu Ji didn't know where these baskets of little bean cubs came from, and he didn't know if they were unconscious now or pretending to be dead collectively, there was one thing that he should have noticed even if he didn't even think about it.
It's dangerous here.
very dangerous.
Liu Ji was not afraid, after all, Mass had promised him with a pat on his chest that he would just do his job, and if he died, they would change their seniority, and Mass would call him daddy.
I just don’t know when they had a seniority relationship before.
But Liu Ji was not afraid. Others present did not have this ability. He walked to Yayin and asked very worriedly: "Are your companions really down here? I feel there is something abnormal down there. Dangerous things..."
"Ha, I also know that it might not be good down there, but," Yayin sighed and tapped the staff in her hand.
The next moment, not far ahead, a circular mark lit up.
"Did you see it? That's the beacon left by our companions," Yain said. "The direction indicated by the beacon is exactly that hemisphere. Obviously, they have gone down there."
Liu Ji looked at the beacon and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
The performance of the Potato Boys made him very uneasy. The weird monster was already scary enough. If they hadn't read the message in advance and planned to kill it directly, he didn't know how much trouble would have happened.
At that time, the Potato Boys were just frightened into isolation, but now they are actually kicking themselves. This at least shows that the things below are probably not on the same level as the previous monster.
Seeing Liu Ji's uneasy face, Yayin laughed, raised her right hand and tapped his forehead lightly.
"Okay, don't underestimate us," Yayin said. "We are also people who escaped from the tyrant's annihilation team. We have seen a lot of strong winds and waves. Even if we can't defeat them, we can still run away. "
"Hmm... That's true," Liu Ji scratched his cheek, not knowing what to say.
After all, the companion they were worried about had gone underground, and now his life or death was uncertain. He couldn't stop them from going down.
And just like Yayin said, there are so many dangers in this world. If you can't defeat them, just run away. If you are frightened just because of unknown dangers, then there is no need to go out and go back to accompany a lonely old man. It’s okay to live in retirement.
Knocking Liu Ji's forehead lightly again, Yayin turned around and shouted to everyone: "Let's all rest first, make a fire and cook a hot meal. When we finish eating, let's go down and see what is in this damn place." .”
----

The spiral staircase leading underground was dark and winding, with moss growing in the gaps in the wall. The steps were covered with thick dust. It was unknown how many years no one had taken care of them.
Yayin held up her staff and used sunlight to illuminate the way forward in the darkness.
Liu Ji walked in front of her, acting as a pioneer.
Osa was carrying a basket and Jilunini was sitting on her shoulders. The steps at such a height were not very friendly to a Miffy like her. She could still find a way to go up the stairs, but when she went down the stairs, she could easily just follow the stairs accidentally. If it rolls down, it can't be stopped.
Callidora and Mervent walked at the end of the team. As the healer and supporter of the team, Callidora always stayed in the safest position, while Mervent was responsible for investigating the rear. Condition.
"This staircase is really long," Ao Sa suddenly muttered as he walked, "It feels like there is no end."
"No," Jilunini continued, "I have heard of the illusion of an endless staircase."
"You can rest assured about this," Mo Wente from behind answered, "I looked all the way here and didn't find any trace of magic power. Moreover, I think we have arrived..."
While talking, Liu Ji, who was walking at the front, finally noticed a faint blue light coming from under the dark stairs.
After walking down two more circles, a dilapidated gate appeared in front of everyone.
There was no door panel on the door, and the door was wide open. Looking out through the door, it was a wide street dotted with fluorescent stones on both sides.
Looking forward along the street, you can see the city's buildings and pedestrians in the distance.
Although the light was dim and no one could see clearly, it was at least certain that the legendary vortex city still existed.
However, looking at the sparse crowds on the streets and the high-pole street lamps in the distance that have long since lost their light, I am afraid that this city is no longer the bustling trading capital that Mass mentioned.
Stepping onto the stone road that had not been repaired for many years, Yayin looked around and said in a half-joking tone: "It's not bad, at least we didn't fall directly into the monster's lair."
Mowente quickly walked to the front of the team, with a golden glimmer in his eyes. After scanning around, his eyes were fixed on a certain building across the street.
"Well, I found the tavern," Mowente said, "but... I'm not sure it's still a tavern. There seem to be some elderly men playing chess inside..."
