Chapter 77 “Dragon” and Dungeon


Chapter 77 "Dragon" and Dungeons

"The hole is still open."

Armin said suddenly, staring directly at the place where they came from.

Sushyan suddenly realized that the other party was referring to the possibility that the monsters would enter this space through this passage, so he ordered a soldier to blow up the entrance of the cave with a grenade - at least for a short time they did not have to worry about pursuing soldiers. .

"Here——"

Thor, who had just spoken before, took a few steps forward and suddenly looked up and saw a steep hole above his head.

"Someone has used this hole."

He raised his hand and pointed in the air. Soshyan and everyone looked and found a rope ladder hanging down from the hole. Affected by the airflow they had just caused, The rope ladder was still swinging slowly.

Although there is a certain distance, Soshyan can see that this rope ladder is not a very old object, because most of this kind of woven fabrics do not have a long shelf life.

"It will never be the miners, they know the dangers here better than anyone else."

Soshyan was only one beat behind Saul before he came to the obvious conclusion.

"That's right."

Seeing Sol nodded slightly, the ominous premonition in Soshiyang's heart became stronger.

“This mine has enough space, plenty of water, and even food. The moss is non-toxic most of the time, and it is hidden enough.”

“ Therefore, it is very likely that some of the rebellious farmers are hiding here.”

This conclusion stirs up an even more troubling set of questions.

They did not see any traces of human activity from beginning to end. The rebels they encountered before obviously did not know that there was a group of the same kind here, indicating that the people who entered here were very isolated and secretive, or in other words They disappeared before they could tell the outside world any news.

Soshiyan took a deep breath.

Anyway, he would have to worry about this later, now that the task he wanted to complete was clear.

He pointed to the glowing "trees".

"We have to go and have a look."

The place was not very far away from them. After getting really close, Soshyan and others discovered that it was indeed a plant.

A rare plant with certain mineral characteristics.

However, as Saul said, the distribution pattern of these plants is regular, and there are some paths.

After a brief discussion, they decided to go deep into it along the path to find out.

As he trudged quickly through the glowing woods and the plants that inhabited their surfaces, Soshyan felt that the moss under his feet was still quite elastic, but much thinner than at the cave.

Looking up, apart from the dark green moss, there are scattered glimpses of exposed stones.

As the team passed through a plant that was lower than most others, Soshyan slowed down slightly and tried to take in as many details as possible.

No matter what its structure is, the surface is as smooth as marble, the interior is slightly shiny, and there seems to be a faint pattern on the surface.

Soshiyang hesitated for a moment, considering whether to stop and study, but a sudden movement in front made him speed up his pace again.

"Those plants were eaten."

Armin walked, raising his gun and watching the shrubs between the glowing trees more warily than before.

Generally speaking, if there are herbivores, there are probably carnivores.

The ecosystem here looks particularly weird, and even feels like it should not belong to this planet. Occasionally, a brightly colored light spot is exposed in the surrounding rich moss.

Suddenly, the bushes on the right side of the team trembled suddenly, followed by a sharp cry, but then suddenly became quiet.

Everyone pointed their guns at the surroundings vigilantly, but only felt a strange silence.

"Don't stop." Thor's voice rang in the communication channel, so everyone continued to move forward in a covering formation.

The road behind seemed to be easier to walk, and Soshyan soon discovered the reason - they accidentally entered an avenue between trees. Compared with before, The trail is much wider.

But it also means something else - roads usually lead people somewhere.

And Soshyan couldn't help but think that this road would lead them directly to trouble, or to their goal.

Perhaps those refugees may have also walked this road, and then found something or encountered something at the end of the road.

“There seems to be a building ahead.”

Suddenly, while Soshyan was thinking, Saul, who was walking at the front, issued a warning, and he immediately stopped his wild speculation, He checked his bolt pistol again - it was fully loaded.

As we advanced a few dozen meters, the surrounding light became brighter, and the material on the surface of the trees seemed to become weirder and smoother.

At the same time, they began to extend to the left and right, like well-manicured flower beds around the square.

Soshyan thought that Sol's view should be correct, everything here should be artificial.

And the trees in this place are several times taller than the previous ones. There are obvious openings on both sides, which look very much like doors and windows. The largest ones have something similar to doorposts on them.

There are some kind of "residents" here that they don't understand.

Thinking of this, Soshyan immediately said in the communication channel:

"Take cover!"

Then he jumped off the road first and got into the nearby bushes.

If he were responsible for deploying the defense of this area, he would definitely arrange for snipers to monitor this most obvious entrance.

Based on past experience, swaggering into the ambusher's line of fire will almost certainly not end well.

"Sir? What happened?"

Armin asked quietly while trudging forward with Soshyan.

After the team entered the bushes to hide, there was a sudden rustling and movement around them.

“Not sure yet.”

As soon as Soshiyang finished speaking, he saw something rushing out of hiding. It looked like a small four-legged creature. Lizard, crawling quickly in the bush.

Its back is covered with thick scales, and its tail is simply a mace that any barbarian would dream of.

"Come on, you can go through here."

Soshiyan found a gap in the bushes and led the team through the fence.

But as soon as we came out, we found ourselves surrounded by glowing walls shaped like huge coral reefs.

"This is..."

Soshiyang touched it lightly and was surprised to find that the touch was very similar to jelly.

At the same time, the moment the Space Marine's gauntlet came into contact with the smooth surface, the original glimmer of light suddenly brightened.

The bright light made it difficult to see directly, so Soshyan almost didn't notice the faint movement in the fence behind him.

It’s just a close call.

"Enemy attack!"

With a harsh roar, a bipedal lizard-like creature twice as tall as him burst out of the bushes, its mouth wide open. , the claws stretched forward, aiming directly at the nearest Thor, preparing to cut open the prey in front of him alive.

Soshyan immediately fired a shot, and the blast left a scorch mark on the skin of its strong shoulder muscles, but the creature barely slowed down.

But he bought enough time for Thor.
