Chapter 108, this is impossible

Everyone took out their weapons one after another. Weasley, the director of the Luigi Chamber of Commerce, subconsciously pulled out the scimitar on his waist, and the guide who accompanied him took off the shield behind him...!

But before everyone could take out their weapons, Paladin Alfred rushed to everyone, and he raised the paladin sword in his hand and shouted angrily.

"Holy Light Technique!"

The strong platinum glow carried powerful sacred energy and shot towards the black vampire bat group. The vampire bats with blood-red eyes were shining on their bodies and turned into ashes as melted by the glow. Other vampire bats fled in all directions and soon disappeared.

"What a powerful Holy Light Technique." Weasley sighed and put away his weapon.

"Mr. Paladin, can you tell me first next time you are preparing for this? I was so flashing that my eyes were almost blind." Estel complained dissatisfied.

"I don't want this either, Mr. Estel, but these vampire bats are very smart. They will remember our figures after being attacked. They are afraid of death and will not attack us again." Alfred's face was full of serious 'color': "We are going to check the abnormalities, not to spend time with these vampire bats."

"Well, I don't like teaming with the Paladin." Estel muttered, reluctantly agreeing with Alfred.

"Are there always vampire bats in the mine?" Ryan noticed its unusual place. Normally, there shouldn't be so many vampire bats in a mining mine's hole.

"Of course there aren't so many miners, but we have stopped mining this mine vein for nearly three months. Maybe these damn beasts thought that humans had left, so they emerged again?" Weasley was also a little confused, and he made a guess.

This guess is quite reasonable, so Ryan did not ask much and continued to move towards the depths.

The passage of mine No. 1's 'hole' is very long. Ryan holds the warhammer with one hand, and the hand in his right hand has a light blue 'color' psychic blade that is shining. Relying on the glimmer of the psychic blade, Ryan found that many rock walls were very 'moist' and wet, and the surface was covered with ice: "Is there any groundwater leakage here?"

"Yes, Mr. Ryan, there is groundwater leakage here." Weasley nodded, pointing to the rock wall: "When Viscount Casanova sold us this vein, he told us that there is groundwater leakage here, which is one of the reasons why he treated this vein cheaply."

“In order to prevent groundwater from flooding the mines, we reinforced many places.” Weasley pointed to many infiltration areas: “Although there will be a few places with a small amount of leakage, it will not affect mining. The only problem is that the mining cost has increased.”

"Yes." So several people continued to move towards the depths of the "hole" of Mine No. 1.

Noting that the candle lamp was used very quickly, Ryan sighed again. If Veronica were there, the torch she made was powerful, with a wide range of illumination and a long duration. This kind of slag candle lamp could not be seen far away and would be used very quickly.

The deeper he went, the narrower the road became, and the ground and rock walls became slippery. Weasley wiped off the broken ice from his head, pointed to the bend in front, and whispered: "There is the end of the 'hole' of Mine No. 1, and the end of the 'hole' of Mine No. 1 is an underground lake... What's wrong with Mr. Ryan?"

"Wait... I seem to hear something." Ryan signaled the few people to calm down.

"Rush rustle~kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Everyone who knew it all took out their weapons and was ready to fight.

The half-ethic spirit came out from the corner and looked at things like daylight in the dark.

After he saw clearly what was going on, Estel's eyes suddenly widened.

Mouse! What a big mouse!

Several mice, who were still tall, were gathering in the frozen ice layer of the underground lake, gnawing around something. They had blood-red eyes, huge bodies, and sharp minions. Estel could not see clearly what they were gnawing, but the continuous flying bones and flesh showed that it must be a living thing.

The semi-'spirit' spirit turned around and whispered, "It's a mouse, what a big mouse."

"Is it a Scarlet man?" Ryan asked in a low voice.

"It doesn't look like... it looks like an ordinary big rat." The semi-elephant spirit has rich experience. He horses can identify those who are not the infamous Scarlet rats, they are just ordinary mutant rats.

"Then kill them!" Several people nodded and prepared for the battle. Ryan's light blue 'color' psychic flames kept burning. He found a position and extended his right hand to the several rats who were eating.

Psychic Storm!

The light blue lightning attacked the rats who were feasting. They were in great pain under the burning of lightning. Two of the attacked rats were killed by the psychic storm on the spot. The rest quickly reacted, avoided the light blue lightning and rushed towards the exploration team.

Estel bent his bow and arrow at an extremely fast speed.

"Swish!" The first feather arrow was just facing the left eye of the rat. It rolled to the ground and immediately lost its breath.

The second feather arrow hit the longbow of half-'ethic spirit. The cunning rats knew how to avoid it. They immediately dispersed. One rushed directly towards Alfred, and the other two approached rapidly towards where Ryan was.

"Huh!" Alfred held up the square shield and hit Shuo's head hard. Shuo avoided with all his strength, but was still hit by the huge paladin square shield. Shuo's face was beaten to blood by the paladin.

"Swish!" Estel took advantage of the fact that the rat was knocked out and then shot the door. The rat fell to the ground, and the horse stopped moving.

On the other side, two big rats rushed towards Ryan. Ryan picked up the griffin warhammer and shot one big rat in the head with one hammer. The other big rat felt something was wrong when he saw this, and the cunning creature immediately turned around and ran away.

"Kill it!" Several people wanted to chase, but the ice surface of the underground lake was slippery, so Weasley quickly said to the half-ethic spirit.

"No need to say more!" Estel replied impatiently, and the half-ethic spirit bent his bow and arrow. He narrowed his eyes, calculated the distance directly, then raised the longbow and shot an arrow directly towards the height.

How did this semi-ethic spirit shoot arrows? Weasley, director of the Chamber of Commerce, frowned, but what happened next made him open his eyes wide.

The rat slid over the ice at an extremely fast speed. When it slid to the edge of the ice and jumped on the ground to escape, the feather arrow in the sky changed direction and fell, and then penetrated the rat's sky cover, bringing it the final judgment.

This is throwing and shooting. Ryan nodded in praise: "It is not a good thing that the people of the forest can calculate the distance so carefully."

"Everyone in the forest will throw 'shoot', this is just a tiny skill." Estel didn't care about this praise, and several people could not respond. Only Ryan shrugged: "Okay, okay, tiny skill is also a skill. Let's see what they are eating."

Several people came to the ice level carefully together and looked at the corpse that was eaten by several big rats.

"Is this... a kobold?" Relying on the faint candlelight and the light of Ryan's hand, several people discovered that this was the corpse of a kobold, which had been eaten beyond recognition.

"Is there a knight in the mine?" Ryan asked at Weasley.

The dog-killer is an annoying creature who likes to survive in the wet and underground environment. At the same time, they are excellent miners and treacherous slave traders.

Weasley signaled the guide to answer, and the guide answered without hesitation: "Yes, since we started digging this vein, the dog-headed people have never stopped appearing, but they are generally more afraid of people. After clearing them a few times, as long as humans appear, they will take the initiative to avoid them."

Ryan's face twitched and he thought to himself that everything and strange things could be found.

Then why do miners go crazy?

"Do you have the groundwater here directly?" Looking at the thick ice layer of the underground lake, Ryan thought of another explanation.

"No, there have been any before. Since some miners went crazy, we also thought it might be a water problem, so we asked the miners to bring the water by themselves." The guide still shook his head.

"...Okay, in short, the No. 1 Mine Hole seems to be nothing." Ryan found that the ice lake was at the end, and there was no way forward. There were only some mouse holes dug out by rats, and the dark rock walls: "Let's go to the next mine hole!"

"The place where everything begins is also where it ends."

"What?" Ryan frowned and turned around and asked Ester: "Ester? When did you learn these divine prophecies too?"

"Hey! Ryan, what are you talking about? I didn't say anything." Estel looked at Ryan strangely: "What prophecy?"

"Ah? You're not talking?" Ryan was so weird.

"I really didn't speak." Estel was a little dissatisfied: "We didn't speak, are you hallucinating?"

"Yes, good friend, no one talked to us just now." Alfred also came out to testify.

A few people looked at me, and I looked at you. Their horse realized something was wrong. Ryan immediately asked, "Wait! Mr. Weasley, you said before, can many miners hear low and muddy sounds?"

"Yes...yes, you heard it too, Mr. Ryan?" Weasley's eyes lit up. As soon as Ryan came to investigate, it was effective.

"Did any miner hear what this voice is saying?" Ryan's brows became tighter and tighter, and he asked in a deep voice.

"No, according to them, it's a language that they can't understand." The board director said helplessly: "We once wanted miners to record these languages ​​and find linguists, but each miner described it differently."

"..." Ryan had a vague answer in his heart, and he signaled everyone to explore the "hole" of Mine No. 2 together.

The "hole" of Mine No. 2 is roughly the same as the "hole" of Mine No. 1, but the content of Misilan ore in this mine is purer and the road is narrower. In some places, people have to crawl forward. The "tide and wet underground environment makes people feel uncomfortable. Moreover, as they enter the ground for a long time, they cannot see the sunlight. Everyone's concept of time gradually blurred. Some people think that three or four hours have passed since they entered the ground, and some people think that most of the day has passed.

The dome of the No. 2 Mine Cave is even higher. It is hard to imagine that the top of the rock layer of the "Hole" would be fifty or sixty meters away from the ground. Several people carefully advanced towards the depths of the mine cave. A light blue psychic blade stretched out from Ryan's right wrist to illuminate the way forward. The few people behind were holding candle lamps and checking the rock walls.

As several people continued to move forward, the road became narrower and narrower, almost only one person could pass through. The rock walls on both sides of the road were constantly pressing towards everyone, accompanied by strong psychological pressure, darkness, depression, 'tide' wet, and Ryan and others were fine. The guide and Weasley who brought a few people together could no longer withstand it. The director of the chamber of commerce cleared his throat: "Ahem, Mr. Ryan, we have been in the mine for a long time. Should we go and take a break first? Let's get down tomorrow?"

Ryan thought for a while and shook his head: "Check the 'hole' of mine No. 2. If nothing happens, then we will go back to the ground first."

"OK."

After a few people walked a while, the half-ethic spirit Estel felt a dripping water falling on his face, so he looked towards the dome and found that something seemed to be shaking at the highest point of the dome: "Lian? There seems to be something on the top."

"What is that? Estel, can you see it clearly?"

"It seems like... something is hanging, 'swaying' and 'swaying'." Estel looked closely for a while, but still couldn't determine what it was: "Sorry, Ryan, my dark vision is not as good as that of the real wood spirit compatriots. The distance is too far, and I can't see clearly."

"Where is it?" Ryan and others raised their heads together, but they could only see a darkness: "Is it something hanging? Can it 'cum' down?"

"It should be possible, let me try!" The half-ethic spirit bent his bow and put on an arrow. Seeing this, several people made way out and waited for the result.

"Swish~" The first feather arrow soared into the sky and disappeared into the depths of the darkness.

After waiting for ten seconds without any response, Estel took out another arrow: "This one must be!"

Sure enough, five seconds later, there was a sound of a powerful weapon scraping over the hard object: "Oh!"

A sound of heavy objects falling to the ground sounded, and something very heavy fell about fifty meters ahead of everyone. The sound was beyond the ground. Ryan and others rushed to the front.

This is a skeleton, a human skeleton, covered with dust and spiders.

"What is this? Someone has died here?"

"It's nothing to be surprised about. Where are there no corpses in the underground tunnel?"

"He seems a little different. This corpse must have been dead for a long time. Look, the bones do not have any 'meat' quality, so it has been many years since this person died."

Ryan, Estel and Alfred discussed in a verbal manner, and the appearance of the skeleton made the three people wonder.

"After a normal person dies, if the sky is exposed and under normal temperature, the corpse will usually turn into a skeleton for about one and a half years." Ryan touched his chin: "In this underground and cold environment, the corpse will take longer."

"It will take at least several years in this underground environment." Estel said, turning the corpse over. The skeleton is extremely tall, about two meters tall, and has completely transformed into a skeleton. Many bones have been damaged and can only see the general outline.

"Wait, this is..." Ryan noticed that the skeleton was a little different, and he immediately reached out and pried open the skeleton's teeth.

Under the illumination of the candle lamp, everyone noticed that the skeleton's teeth were different from normal people, and his teeth were sharper.

It seems like a wolf tooth.

Ryan's eyes became wider and wider. He opened his mouth wider. The gene primordial subconsciously took out a silver-colored wolf-head pendant from his body. In full view of everyone, the silver-colored wolf-head pendant flashed with a glimmer of light.
