(First update. Chapter 2 at 8:30 pm.)

There is no night and day in the underground world.

When Zhao Futu led the army along the location marked on the map, he soon encountered another trouble.

That is, he actually has to pass through the territory of the group of wild bulls on his way forward. Perhaps for the lifeless undead soldiers, the death eyes of the wild bulls are not something too scary, because it is basically useless to the undead and alchemists.

Life is ineffective. But for Zhao Futu now, the group of wild bulls are still a very threatening existence. Even if his current military strength is good, he is not sure whether he can defeat them.

The more important point is!

Generally speaking, abandoned fortresses will be occupied by other creatures.

Even if there are no heroes, creatures that are not heroes will automatically be attracted to nearby fortresses and use them as their lairs.

In other words, after Zhao Futu found the fortress of the underground city, he still had a tough battle to attack the city!

"Should we spend our troops here?"

Zhao Futu thought about it for a long time and finally decided to take a detour, although it would take him half a day longer.

But this is good, as he can further explore the nearby area and record what he encounters. The barbarian cows will not run away if they live there, and the magic buildings guarded by them are still there, as long as Zhao Futu can attack them

After descending into a dungeon, he would have enough time to kill these bulls, and it might even be possible to find a way to recruit them.

The underground world extends in all directions, with too many roads. Zhao Futu even entered a dead end and had to go back again.

After spending half a day, he finally bypassed Manniu's territory and entered the rear area marked on the map.

Here, it's about half a day's journey from the abandoned underground city.

After bypassing Manniu's territory, the land became barren and surrounded by rugged rocks. Zhao Futu also saw a large area of ​​stalactites.

I don’t know if it was because he was still within Manniu’s territory, but Zhao Futu did not encounter other creatures. However, as the surrounding area gradually became desolate, Zhao Futu also began to find traces of the activities of other creatures. The traces left by these creatures

The harder ones don't seem to be a species from the dungeon, but rather seem to be leftover from creatures from other forces.

But this is not important. What is important is that Zhao Futu discovered an accident.

It was a small wooden house that was inconspicuous but very conspicuous. It was surrounded by strange flowers and plants. There were also some strange insects among them.

When Zhao Futu felt in front of this hut, the cold system prompt tone of the nightmare space also sounded:

"You found a witch's hut. You can try to spend a certain price to have her teach you some hero skills!"

Witch?

When Zhao Futu heard the prompt sound of this nightmare space, he was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to stop the army, and walked over with only the young paladin and the Medusa hero Melina.

The witch doesn't want a swarm of creatures to come and ruin her garden!

When Zhao Futu approached the witch's hut, many flowers and plants in the garden with strange plants started to squirm automatically. He turned his head to where he was and looked as if he was alive. Even Zhao Futu

I also saw a patch of flowers and grass intertwined together, gradually forming a huge piranha flower, but at this time, an old and hoarse voice suddenly came from the witch's cabin.

"Let these visitors from far away come in!" As these words fell, the flowers and plants twisted and changed back to their original appearance, swaying in the wind, without any hint of the ferociousness at the beginning.

Zhao Futu looked at each other and then carefully stepped into the small wooden house.

As soon as he looked up, Zhao Futu saw many messy books and a large number of miscellaneous bottles and jars, which contained the organs of many creatures. The eyes of the evil eye, the snake hair of Medusa, the scorpion tail of the griffon, etc. One

The old and stooped old witch was sitting in front of a short table, holding something like a test tube in her hand, and using a device next to her to cook a turbid liquid that exuded a strange smell. She seemed to be very focused and didn't pay attention to what was coming in.

Zhao Futu et al.

"Wait a minute!" As soon as Zhao Futu entered the witch's hut, he felt an aura of isolation.

That's the barrier. The witch in front of you is very extraordinary!

One minute, two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes, Zhao Futu waited for more than half an hour.

The old witch finally finished her experiment and put away the bottles and jars. Then she raised her head and stared at her with turbid and cold, sharp eyes like a werewolf. The skin on her old face wrinkled.

It was smeared with strange oil paint, and there were a few unknown bird feathers inserted on the top of the head, and the image was somewhat similar to an Indian wizard.

The old-looking witch stared at Zhao Futu and others for a moment, then squeezed out an ugly and stiff smile and said in a hoarse voice: "Very good!"

"Young man! You have great patience!"

She picked up the staff beside her, stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice: "I haven't met another hero for one hundred and eighty years. Following the ancient contract, after I escape from the world, I have to work for some

Young, potential heroes provide help, but you also have to pay a reward."

"From my place, you can learn the basic wisdom technique, which will allow you to master more advanced magic."

"But similarly, you must each provide me with 2,000 law gold coins!"

………………

Elementary wisdom?

Zhao Futu looked thoughtful when he heard this, and then quickly took out 6,000 law gold coins and piled them in front of the old witch like a small mountain.

She waved her hand nonchalantly, and part of the gold coins disappeared.

But there was still a part left on the ground. She turned her gaze to the girl paladin aside and said slowly: "She is not a hero yet!"

"You are not qualified to learn elementary wisdom skills!"

Finished.

She stretched out her palm like an eagle's claw and gently pressed Zhao Futu's forehead. For a moment, Zhao Futu wanted to move away, but he still allowed the other party to press him.

Immediately afterwards, a ray of light appeared, and a large piece of text appeared in his mind.

The cold notification sound from the nightmare space also sounded:

"Contractor No. 1013 spent 2,000 law gold coins and learned the elementary wisdom technique from the witch!"

Compared to Zhao Futu's shock, Medusa's leader's expression was much more respectful. She leaned over slightly and lowered her head, waiting for the old witch to give her new abilities. The same light flashed, and then Zhao Futu also took the shot.

The leader of Medusa received the reminder to learn the elementary wisdom technique. After completing all this, the old witch seemed to be a little tired. She waved her hand impatiently, as if to shoo away flies: "Okay!"

"I have nothing more to teach you. You should leave quickly!"

Witches have very weird personalities!

Zhao Futu didn't say much to refute, he just leaned over slightly and left with the other two people.

………………

After they stepped out of the witch's cabin.

The girl paladin looked back with dissatisfaction, then muttered: "Isn't it just a basic wisdom technique? What's so great about it!"

It seemed that she still had some grudges and the old witch didn't teach her.

"Let's go." Zhao Futu also looked back at the witch hut, silently writing down her location in his heart, secretly thinking that if he recruits other heroes in the future, maybe he should let them come here.

After a while, Zhao Futu led the army on the road again.

And not long after they left, the old witch also walked out slowly. She glanced at the direction Zhao Futu left with her cloudy eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "I have taught two people, according to the contract,

It is stipulated that I will not have to teach skills to new heroes for a hundred years."

"It looks like I can return directly to the elemental demiplane!"

"There seems to be a star axis and magic tower over there? Maybe I should study their energy?"

"never mind!"

"Let's keep those young people with potential! It takes fifty years to complete the recharge and have an opportunity to improve your abilities. I don't know which little guy will be given cheaply in the end!"

Finished.

The old witch suddenly inserted the staff in her hand into the ground, and then a portal with lavender light appeared.

After a while, the old witch disappeared from this land along with her cabin and garden.

There was only a piece of dry land and gravel left on the ground. Even Zhao Futu did not notice that the area covered by the witch hut was slightly inconsistent with the surrounding terrain. It looked as if it had just appeared here not long ago.

.

With the disappearance of the witch, the surroundings returned to calm again.

It's like everything never happened!

Zhao Futu didn't know all of this.

Because after he continued on his way for a while, he discovered something quite unexpected. It was a caveman's lair. Strictly speaking, it should be a lair occupied by cavemen.

It's a mine, or it used to be a mine.

When Zhao Futu discovered and approached it, he also received the cold notification sound from the nightmare space:

"You have discovered an abandoned mine, which is now occupied by a group of cavemen. You can reoccupy it after defeating them! The mine will provide you with a fixed amount of ore every day based on its own production."
