Chapter 71 - Idol (Part 1)
Going down the stone steps, all the people knew that, at the end of the stone steps, it turned out to be a basement.
This basement is also made of stone, but the area is much smaller than the stone room above. Unlike the above nothing, this place is extremely chaotic, and the ground is full of chaos, almost no place for a foot.
The air is filled with a smelly, moldy smell, which is very unpleasant.
And the nine-member team, the people who came down in order were: Hawari, Lankasi, Jumary, Lusha, Xiaoka, Hero, Peter, Adam, Romon.
As a seriously responsible team leader, although his left arm was injured, it did not prevent him from using a sword in his right hand. Therefore, he was the first to bear the brunt and walked down first.
After stepping down the steps, he almost didn’t care about the unpleasant breath filled in the air, but just sullenly observed the situation around him carefully.
To his surprise, originally thought that there will be a bear goblin, and did not kill it as he expected. It was quiet all around, and I couldn’t hear anything except the footsteps and breathing of the teammates behind me.
Seeing this situation, because he had already received a lesson, the extremely cautious Captain Hawawi still did not dare to relax. He took the sword and continued to look around carefully.
Following him, it was Lan Cassie, the captain of the other team.
This young man who has always been calm and resolute, at this time, also showed a good rest, and his kindness made the smile of Julie Marie who followed him thicker.
Different from the team of Haywards, the Lancasti team was formed temporarily, and the members of the team did not know each other before this expedition.
This adventure is their first cooperation, so the death of teammates will not produce any emotional stimulation for them. The most is nothing more than a feeling of sorrow and death.
Therefore, the act of asking for the initiative, for Julie Marie, is just to increase the chance of contact with Captain Lan Cassie.
“What a smell, it’s really bad to die!” As she stepped down the stone steps, Julie Marie held the sword in one hand and covered her nose with the other, her face full of disgusted expression. When she saw the situation in the stone room, she frowned deeply, nausea a few times.
Is in stark contrast to her performance. Behind her, Lusha, who came down, was very calm. Although a woman’s innate cleanliness makes her frown slightly when she smells bad, her performance is not as exaggerated as Julie Marie. And her hand holding the bow and arrow was tighter.
Following them, Xiaoka, Hero, Peter, Adam, and Romon also quickly walked down.
Xiaoka, Hero and Peter reacted similarly. Almost when they saw the situation in the basement, they showed a disappointed expression on their faces. However, they still looked around with vigilance to prevent the emergence of sudden situations.
So, sometimes, just how a person’s character is, it is enough to just walk up a certain level.
However, Romon behaved differently from the previous ones. He neither showed how anxious nor disappointed, nor how disgusted and unacceptable he was with his surroundings.
From the beginning, he silently walked at the back of the team. While walking, observe carefully all around. This is what he has done since he stepped into the mouth.
In fact, the reason why he walked at the end of the team is not because of Luo Meng’s cowardice, but because he has other ideas.
Romon mainly wanted to take a closer look at the situation around him.
When he came down from the stone steps, he raised his head and groped his hand at the inner end of the entrance. Sure enough, he felt a lock-like object at that time. Without looking at it, he could imagine the shape of the lock without feeling. There must be no difference from the lock on that portrait.
Proves his initial conjecture that this channel has organs inside and outside, which explains why the group of bear goblins can come out from inside. And if you think about it further, Xiong Goblin can find this mechanism and know that it is used to attack everyone, which means that Xiong Goblin has gone through this passage more than once. If they really came out from here, then their nest should not be too far from this.
Walked along the stone steps, and some traces appeared on the surrounding stone walls, which also attracted Luo Meng’s attention. He gently stroked some of the traces with his hands, and frowned slightly. These were the traces cut by the sword. In addition to these traces, there were some blood stains on the stone wall. It can be seen that there have been people here and fierce fighting. Is it a bear goblin?
“Everyone should be more careful. When searching this room, pay attention to safety. If you find something, tell everyone not to act without permission.” At this time, Captain Haivawe had initially checked the situation here, and no figure of bear gnomes was found. . However, he still decided to double check again.
Everyone agreed, and then scattered and checked each one. At this time, Romon also came down from the steps, and then walked to the front of Hayward. “Captain, the bear goblin should have entered the stone room from here. I think there might be another passage here, leading to other places.”
“There is only this explanation. Let’s see if we can find it.” Captain Hayward said with a sullen face.
Because of the experience of searching in the stone-house rug above, so this time, everyone seemed very careful and cautious in the search process.
“Look, here!” At this moment, a member of the team suddenly yelled, and the other eight people quickly rushed to him, and took a closer look. It turned out that there was a wooden stick lying on the ground in front of this person.
One end of the wooden stick is slightly thin, and the other end is thick and thick. Overall, the workmanship is not very meticulous, but when used on the battlefield, it is a handy weapon.
“It is a wooden stick of bear gnomes. It seems that they are indeed from here to the stone room. There are also their footprints. Following the footprints, you can definitely find the hiding place of the bear gnomes.”
Sure enough, not far from the wooden stick, a place where there is less garbage, a few less obvious goblin footprints, all the way to a wall, and finally disappeared around a large waste of debris.
Everyone held their breath and walked carefully to the debris.
“Ah!” Suddenly, Julie Mary’s feet were mixed with something. She almost fell to the ground, her hand was pulled, and a human hand bone was thrown out.
Then her body fell into the arms of Lancaster walking beside her. Lancasty frowned slightly, but didn’t push her.
And others, after this accident, quickly pulled this piece of debris aside, and the scene that appeared in front of them, even if an old adventurer like Hayward saw it, could not help but secretly panic.
Was seen in front of them, because without those covering things, countless human bones piled up together, so exposed to the air.
Is full of bones, one by one piled together, so many, it is really shocking. Some skeletons still maintain the crawling posture during their lifetime, while others can’t even piece together a piece of bone. Weapons such as swords are scattered around the bones or between them.
“Oh my god! How could so many people die?” At this moment, someone exclaimed.
With the first one to break the dull atmosphere, others naturally wake up from the shock.
Jumari saw this situation, and immediately tightened her body and Lan Kaxi tightly. Seeing the other party did not refuse, her face suddenly showed a bright smile.
However, what she didn’t know was that while holding her, a sneer on Lankasi’s face flashed quietly.
But ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Soon, the disdain and contempt disappeared.
Only talents who are extremely good at watching people will find that, in fact, the smile of this young man will never come to mind.
At this time, Captain Haywawe was squatting on the ground, carefully observing the bones, the horrible and horrible bones in the eyes of others. To his old adventurer, it was just the traces of the dead.
And after he checked, he finally came to such a conclusion.
“Only a small part of them were killed by weapons. The more part, there were no scars on the bones, probably died of other reasons.” Standing up, Captain Hawawi said to everyone.
Everyone’s heart suddenly sinks. Could it be that there are other terrible threats besides bear gnomes here?
“Captain, come over and see, there seems to be something here.” Just then, another member discovered something.
Hearing his call, the crowd hurried over and saw that the abandoned heap in front of him had been pulled apart.
A huge gap suddenly appeared on the wall.
The gap is not artificial, it appears obliquely on the wall, which has a scary effect.
However, if you look closely, you will find that this width is about a palm-sized gap, which is not enough for the bear goblin to pass through.
Hawavy shook his head and immediately rejected the speculation that this is another channel.
Since it is not a passageway, Haiwawei will naturally not waste time looking at anything.
As he was about to leave and go to check other places, suddenly, a sharp howling came from the gap. At the same time, a large group of bats flew out of the gap ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ welcome book readers to read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~
