Chapter 2603 The water is so deep
While walking, Lund felt something was wrong. He turned around suddenly and saw a terrifying face. He was so frightened that he immediately raised his silver-throated heavy crossbow and shot.
The thing was as light as nothing, flew silently, and quickly drifted away into the distance.
"What's wrong?" Hullington turned around and saw the grimace, and was startled: "What is that?"
The dark green ghostly face was light and airy, as if it were lying on the ground. Lund fired three arrows at the kite in the sky but missed. The terrifying face on the other side actually smiled, as if he was provoking and ridiculing.
The others got into position and prepared to fight, but the ghostly face only floated around and did not attack. Everyone gradually calmed down.
“Is it the rudder of the Bell tribe?” Dukina knew that there is a creature that looks like a shield-shaped sea rudder in the northern forest. They often hang like spiders between the branches of the forest. Their bodies are flat and can float on Flying vertically in the air, he is good at illusions and water magic. After dissecting the creature, it was found that it was composed of a large plate bone and a colorful skin bag wrapped around the plate bone. It was actually a very primitive creature.
Horse said: "I have seen the rudder of the Bell tribe, and it is definitely not like this. That thing is a solid bone plate with colorful colors on it, and there are beards on the upper and lower ends. And the Bell tribe The rudder looks flat, but is actually quite thick, and this The guys are different. You see, the face of this thing is not actually a face, it is a disguised pattern. The red eye circles and big mouth are fake. The reason why you see the change of expression is that its surface is moving. "He wore it. Wearing the Helm of Falcon Vision, you can see details more clearly.
At this time, more of these strange objects appeared at the edge of the light. In addition to the dark green ones with red stripes, there were also dark red ones with green stripes. They were floating around, flying silently, like ghosts. But they are not like ghosts, but entities. They are just too light and people cannot feel the airflow when they fly.
“They didn’t attack us, and they didn’t seem to have any ill intentions.” Xinu said, “But it feels really uncomfortable to be surrounded by them.”
Lund said: "Let's keep going forward and see how long they follow us."
There are some of these weird creatures in the cave, but not many. We only encountered ten of them before and after. There were a few of them, ranging in size from three to seven meters. They did not follow them for too long. Although they encountered each other from time to time, in general, they did not attack, nor did they show any danger or hostility.
As we went deeper, there was a large area of water on the ground. Fortunately, the water was not deep, so everyone waded forward. There were creatures such as fish and shrimps in the water, as well as some unknown small things and fist-sized mud snails. When they were wondering if all the water behind them would be, bubbles and gurgling sounds appeared in the darkness ahead. , the movement is not small.
"What's in front of you?" Dukina asked Hols in front of her in a low voice.
Horse turned on the Falcon Vision and saw some big bubbles appearing on the water about one kilometer away from time to time. He nodded, turned back and said: "There is something strange in the water ahead. , maybe there’s someone hiding there. Keep your voice down, I’ll go take a look first.”
He gently lifted his feet out of the water, stepped into the air, and flew over. There were two or three of the light, red-green creatures following him. He guessed that these might be some kind of magical creatures.
Flying above the bubbles, the bubbles seemed to have surfaced from a relatively deep place. When he came in, there were basically no undulations in the terrain except at the knot hole. Could there be a big one here? pit? He thought for a while and did not test the water rashly. He returned to the crowd and asked Ruola for a magic flare.
This kind of signal flare is relatively well-made and consists of a glass container and a metal device. The overall shape is columnar and about 24 centimeters high. Inside the container is azure magic liquid, with two magic reaction pills stored on the metal ends at each end. When you want to use it, tap the metal cover on one end to drive the reaction pills from the device into the magic liquid inside to perform magic. reaction, thus glowing for a long time. If the reaction pellets at both ends are put into the container, a high-speed reaction will occur, so that after a delay of accumulated energy, they will rush out and produce an explosion, which is the magic flare usually seen in the sky. It's just that if the drawstring is sealed and waterproof, it can be used in water.
Horse got a sophisticated signal flare and asked others to follow him to find out what was going on in the water, in order to avoid future troubles. When they came to the middle of the water, the bubbles would emerge every tens of seconds, or two or three minutes. There was no very precise time pattern. Lund saw a long place to stay on the water on one side of the cave wall, and motioned to go to the shore. Halls gently tapped one end of the signal bomb, and the two magic reaction pills fell into the azure magic liquid, gradually began to react, and emitted light.
The blue-white light became brighter and brighter, slowly sinking into the water.
"The water here is a bit deep." Everyone looked at the situation in the water eagerly.
Ti Nu stamped her feet and whispered: "Why do I feel that the ground under my feet is a little weird."
"I don't feel down to earth." My sister Xi Nu also said the same. Walking to the edge of the ground, I poked my head and looked: "Hey!"
"What's wrong?"
Xi Nu took out a knife and cut open the hardened dirt on the ground, gradually revealing the outline of something. Tinu, Dujinna and others also started scraping, and soon the outline became clearer and clearer, until they scraped out something that looked like a pincer, and they were shocked. At this time, the slowly sinking signal flare suddenly went out, and then there was a huge movement under the water. Tinu shouted nervously: "It's a crab. We are standing on the crab's shell!"
Hearing the sound of water coming out, a huge crab surfaced with two giant crabs. Without saying a word, the pincers scissored towards the people beside the wall. The Pegasus spread its wings and raised its hooves, stirring up a cloud and wind shield, slowing down the speed of the giant pincers.
Horse acted strangely and immediately turned into a black shadow and rushed towards him, shouting at the same time: "Hughington, take the two girls and stay away."
"Okay. "Hughington didn't hesitate at all. He held Ruola and Eva in each hand and stepped back.
Horse and Lund, with a quick bow and a heavy crossbow, fired both arrows together, but the crab's shell was as hard as a metal iron shell, and even the silver-throated heavy crossbow couldn't penetrate it for a while, and they fired A tinkling sound. Xi Nu immediately summoned a guard. Her indigo-feathered gryphon swooped down from a high position, and the long knight gun in her hand lit up with silver light: "Broken Feather Long Strike~!"
With the power of the indigo-feathered griffon, the impact of this shot was enough to punch a hole in the wall of the castle. However, Cancer's sweeping pincers were easily blocked.
The knight captain Tinu held up his war hammer and silver shield and went directly to the crab. He ran and hit the crab. He rolled over and hit the crab shell with seventeen or eighteen hammers, but it still had no effect. The blood-colored claw attack of the blood lion behind him even scratched a spark on the back.
