Adventurer of the Elven World

Chapter 610 The Underground Labyrinth
He had considered this route when he was in Nibi City, but after investigation, he found that there was no cave with a similar description.

At that time, he thought that there was no such thing as a gopher cave, or that it had not yet been discovered, at least not yet developed on a large scale.

After all, we must know the importance of this road to the Kanto region. As long as it is properly developed, it can become a bridge between the east and the west, breaking the geographical barrier between the east and the west.

To a large extent, it can shorten the time between the two places and reduce travel costs, thereby stimulating the development of the two places.

Once such a strategic path is discovered, the alliance must firmly control it, and no one can take a share of it.

And the place I discovered now may be an extension of the gopher cave, or it may just be an ordinary gopher nest.

Then the next step is to explore the truth of the underground cave.

Xiu took some time to sort out his thoughts, and then made a plan to explore this place together with the elf like the mountain rat who is used to living underground.

The subterranean resident of the mountain mouse is like a duck to water in this environment, and it is like coming home here.

With it leading the way ahead, Xiu didn't need to worry about losing his way or getting lost.

It was cramped and dark, and the only light in the entire passage was the faint light from the night light on Xiu's hand, which could only illuminate a distance of four or five meters ahead.

Moreover, there was no extra sound in this kind of place, only the movement of the clothes rubbing against the ground could be heard, and Xiu could even hear the sound of his own breathing echoing when he stopped.

After walking an estimated hundreds of steps, there was a sudden sound on the road ahead.

Afraid that there might be some elves in front of him, Xiu stopped and stretched out his hand to touch it, trying to stop the squirrel, but the squirrel who had been leading the way just now disappeared at some point.

Just when Xiu wanted to call it, the disappearing mountain rat ran back again.

"jiji~"

"Understood." Xiu said softly.

It turned out that the front was a fracture leading to a cavity.

Xiu slowly climbed out of the passage, and realized that the height was only five or six meters, so he grabbed the edge of the fracture with both hands, shortened the height from the ground by using his body position, and then jumped down, rolling sideways to relieve the force of his fall. Only slowly stood up.

The rat is naturally suited to this kind of place, and the smooth fracture has no effect in front of its claws.

As soon as the claws go down, they hold the soil, and then slowly climb down.

After confirming that there were no wild elves around, Xiu took out a night light and slowly turned it to the maximum brightness.

And the whole picture of this crypt was also repaired into his mind.

This is an irregularly shaped cavity that can be five or six meters high. Except for the top, there are countless passages around it, some are high and some are low, some are big and some are small.

The one he came in just now is just one of the many passages above.

Now this situation reminded him of the emptiness back then...

Of course, there is no comparison here and there.

One is a vein extending like a tree root, while the other is a branch like a trunk.

This is an underground node, and Xiu had seen this situation when he was walking underground on Yuejian Mountain.

It is usually produced by multiple intersections. As a traffic artery, it also has a series of functions such as buffer, escape route, refuge, and ventilation.

Buffer what?
Naturally, it is the influx caused by natural disasters such as heavy rains, and this cultivator has already seen it.

Anyway, the underground structure is a very strange system, and different cavities have different functions.

In fact, when Xiu saw the scene in front of him, he knew that trouble was coming.

Just now, my own route was just one of thousands. The whole gopher cave is like a huge underground maze. If you are not careful, you will go the wrong way or die.

Even though he said this, Xiu didn't seem to be worried, but looked eager to try.

In fact, the reason why Xiu is like this is very simple, because he has the gorillas and Casey, which are enough to solve the problems he is facing.

With Casey around, there is no such thing as getting lost, and you can also observe the situation above from different perspectives to position yourself.

And the mountain mouse already lives in this kind of environment, and it is like a fish in water to move around here.

Whether it is pathfinding or security, they are first-class players.

But Xiu didn't explore rashly, but chose to stop. The reason was nothing else, but he needed to take advantage of this relatively large space to release the giant pincer mantises to rest for a while.

"Don't go in yet, we need to prepare."

Hearing this, the rodent looked a little disappointed.

Not long after I came in, I had to stop, I haven't played enough yet~
They are all connected at this time, Xiu naturally also felt the meaning of the mountain rat, and laughed and joked: "I'm afraid I will stay underground for a while later, so don't regret it then."

The mountain rat yelled twice to show that it spent a lot of time underground.

"Haha~ You'll know when the time comes."

Xiu didn't say much to it, and simply cleaned up the traces, then released the elf.

Casey's state has recovered a lot, at least she can use superpowers normally, but it will take some time to fully recover.

As for the other three, Xiu used Casey's ability to tell them what happened that day.

After seeing the strength of Miaowahua and Chaomeng, each of the three showed different reactions.

The giant pincer mantis fell silent, and couldn't see any big reaction, but Xiu could feel the desire in its heart to become stronger.

The mountain rat arches its body so that it can roll up faster. At the same time, its feet have already started to dig into the ground, so it can dig holes and run if there is a slight problem.

Ji Lidan was in an extremely nervous state throughout the whole process, but it was not afraid, but more worried about repairing them.

"It's okay~" Xiu comforted, and then took out food to divert their attention, and he himself prepared food and started eating.

After resting, Xiu used Casey's strength to try to find the way to the top.

But super powers can't penetrate the soil at all, that is, at least a hundred meters deep.

But that's no reason to hold him back.

"Let's go~ The next step is the real test..."

Xiu also changed the equipment on his body at this time. His upper body was a taupe jacket, while his lower body was a pair of dark green sweatpants.

Both are characterized by specially thickened joints and some parts, which are suitable for climbing and mountain travel.

On his head is a miner's helmet with a lamp.

These are all the equipment he prepared according to the situation after returning from Yuejian Mountain, and they are specially designed to deal with these underground environments.
