Chapter 158 The Nest
In the winding and deep mineway, Box Lunch was moving forward vigilantly with his own combat squad.
This is an abandoned mine road they discovered that leads to the depths of the Dark Mountains, and the entrance is an abandoned forging factory in Rivendale.
The mine road is paved with tracks, which is a bit similar to the railway on Blue Star, but if you carefully identify it, you can vaguely see some magic patterns that have lost their effect.
On both sides of the mine road are smooth rock walls, and there is an old magic lamp every other distance, but it has been destroyed by a thousand years.
Occasionally, you can see some skeletons on the road, and they are still wearing tattered clothes. They are all elves that Rivendell had not had time to escape when he was destroyed overnight, a thousand years ago.
These poor elves remains are not uncommon in Rivendale.
Whenever players discover the remains of the elves, they will excitedly step forward and plunder their things.
But today... the lunch box team has been much more restrained.
Even if they saw the remains of the elves, they just came to the corpse together and observed a three-minute silence.
After that, they prayed as if they were talking to themselves—
"Rest in peace, buddy, I will bring your relics back to the Elf Forest."
... and so on.
Then... the players put away the remains of the elf with sad expressions and put them in the backpack woven by the elves of the Flame Tribe.
In short, the team members have made many rules, just like they are really elves.
The entire mine road is dark and deep, and terrifyingly quiet, and players can only hear their footsteps.
The system's background music has been completely closed under the command of the lunch box, because it is close to the deepest part of Rivendell, and it is not safe. You can often see small crypt spiders who are single.
"Big lunch, are you sure we will be able to find the ore veins when we walk along here?"
As we marched, the elf mage in the team, a player named Gourd asked curiously.
"It must be, it's all mines, and there must be a mine vein at the end."
Before the lunch box answered, another player replied.
"But, others thought so before. Walking along the mine track, the end was either blocked or a depleted ore veins, with nothing."
Hulu continued to mumble.
After hearing the lunch box, he was silent for a moment and said:
"There are many spiders in this vein."
"Will there be mines if there are too many monsters?"
Hulu asked again.
This time, without waiting for the lunch box to answer, a crisp and disgusting sound rang out:
"Stupid! Ores are also a kind of food for crypt spiders. Since there are many spiders here, it must mean that there are still mineral veins!"
gourd:……
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
The one who spoke was not someone else, but the elves they rescued, Nightingale Shadow.
After knowing that the lunch box team was going to explore Rivendale, the elf girl was chattering and insisting on following up...
And it is precisely because of this NPC that players are afraid of losing their favor, so they have to restrain themselves a lot when plundering the elves' relics.
"Okay, I get it."
Hulu sighed.
He looked at the lunch box, then at the Nightingale, with a strange expression:
"I understand the truth, but... why should I let her follow us?"
The gourd pointed at someone.
"Tsk, where I want to go is my freedom! Besides, you may need my help when you explore Rivendale!"
Nightingale curled her lips and proudly straightened her chest.
After accepting Eve's belief, her racial curse was also broken, and her strength increased instantly, and she directly crossed to the middle of the Black Iron.
Therefore, even when facing these powerful chosen ones, she has some confidence.
After hearing her words, Hulu shook his head helplessly:
"Hey... you don't understand. If you really encounter something amazing, we're fine, you'll be done."
When Nightingale heard this, she raised her eyebrows in confusion.
She was about to ask something, but the low voice of the lunch box suddenly came:
“There is a situation, quiet.”
For a moment, all the players' faces became serious.
And the Nightingale was also excited.
She carefully held her scimitar - that she touched her from the human mercenary that day.
Everyone fell into silence.
And at this time, they vaguely heard a rustling sound.
The lunch box hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at the Nightingale, and whispered:
"You go to the end of the team. If it is dangerous, run quickly."
Looking at his serious expression, Nightingale's lips curled:
"I don't want it! If you don't leave, why should I leave?"
box lunch:……
He was silent for a moment and said:
"We can be resurrected when we die, but you can't."
After saying that, he turned his head and continued to lead the team forward.
"Can you... be resurrected?"
Nightingale was stunned and subconsciously stopped...
The players did not stop moving forward.
They did not explain anything, but walked more carefully and quieter.
Nightingale stayed for a while, and after a moment she reacted and hurriedly caught up with the team.
This time, she walked obediently at the end, talking to herself as she walked:
"What does resurrection... mean?"
The lunch box leads the team and keeps moving forward.
And as everyone advanced, the rustling sound became louder and louder.
They turned a corner and finally arrived at the end of the mine...
After seeing the scene in front of you, everyone's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
At the end of the mine road is a huge cave.
In the cave, countless crypt spiders gathered.
They gathered together, densely packed, thousands, and their scarlet eyes were like lanterns in the dark... and made people feel numb when they saw it.
Most of them are small crypt spiders, but many are large.
Even deeper, players could see a guy who seemed to be about the same size as the giant spider guarding at the entrance of the underground world...
This...it turns out to be the nest of the crypt spider!
For a moment, everyone took a breath.
"Late..."
Hulu subconsciously wanted to swear, but he quickly endured it.
The lunch box looks grim.
He waved his hand and made a retreat.
Everyone held their breath and began to slowly retreat.
At this time, a player accidentally tripped by a stone while retreating, and a spider leg in his backpack fell out.
The metal-like spider legs hit the ground, making a crisp sound.
The sound of "dingdang" seems extremely clear in the mine...
Oops!
The players' faces turned green in an instant.
At the same time, the rustling sounds behind him also weakened a lot...
In the cave, pairs of scarlet eyes looked over.
Chapter completed!
