Chapter 5 Mumbling in the dark(2/2)

Recalling the warning sign he had just seen, he knew that the danger at this moment was probably far from over.

However, this is a good opportunity for him to escape, allowing him to enter the blocked tunnel without any effort.

Otherwise, it will take some effort to eliminate these troublesome guys.

So he patiently watched this hunting game from the Underdark.

Seeing the prey being snatched, four Terrorclaw monsters climbed down from the wall, surrounded the basilisks, and moved back and forth to distract the prey.

While they slapped their hard exoskeleton armor with their claws, they stretched their necks and emitted a sharp chirp in a provocative manner.

The basilisk dropped the prey in its mouth and let out an angry roar from the depths of its throat.

Then he lowered his body and waited for the creature that challenged it to come and die, becoming his next meal.

These Terrorclaw monsters were obviously very aware of the basilisk's deadly petrifying gaze, and they all avoided its ice-blue pupils, trying to launch a surprise attack from the blind corner of their field of vision.

There was even a Terrorclaw monster that took the opportunity to swing out its claws and successfully hit the basilisk's hard armor. The sharp claws scraped against the scales, making a harsh sound.

The painful basilisk shook its heavy body and thick and powerful tail, raised its neck suddenly, took a deep breath, and the brewing poisonous gas spurted out, covering a Dreadclaw monster that could not avoid it.

at the same time.

The basilisk's strong and powerful tail hit another direclaw that was about to attack, causing the latter to hit the cold rock wall like a sharp arrow.

Just then.

Brian, who was hiding aside, suddenly noticed dust falling continuously from the ceiling of the cave, and a heart-stopping tremor came from the inside of the hard rock ground.

He looked shocked and immediately realized something.

So while the Direclaws and Basilisk were still testing, they rushed out from the shadow of the stone pillar without hesitation, passed the monsters as fast as possible, and ran towards the tunnel without looking back.

"Don't come over!!!"

A sharp voice suddenly echoed at the intersection of the tunnel.

The fighting basilisks and direclaws were also frightened and froze in place. They all looked back and happened to see Brian who wanted to take the opportunity to leave.

Brian, who was the first to be hit, was startled by the sudden scream.

He quickly stopped because the screamer was a skinny goblin that suddenly appeared in front of him.

This made him want to trample him to death.

Obviously, even he didn't notice that he was not the only one watching the show, and he didn't even know when the other person appeared.

He saw the goblin, who was obviously making a fool of himself, grinning at him, reaching out to pat its butt, then winking with a scornful expression, shrinking into a shadow and disappearing.

Shadow jumping?

Could it be a goblin shadowdancer?

Brian looked at the disappearing shadow of the goblin in surprise, and was about to recall the origin of this goblin that appeared on the Silk Trail, when he suddenly felt a violent vibration coming from the ground.

He looked shocked and immediately realized something, so he did not dare to waste time and began to concentrate on casting his teleportation spell.

——"Second-level spell: Dimension jump!"

Just when there was a roar that broke through the ground behind him, and with dim light particles swirling around him, Brian disappeared without a trace in a cloud-like halo in time.

He walked non-stop through the pitch-black tunnel, following the instructions in his memory, and came to a cave with rugged rocks.

The ground here was broken into many levels. The lower levels were covered with glowing moss, with a small stream winding through the moss. The higher levels were like stairs, stretching into the deep darkness beyond the reach of his eyes.

middle.

Brian jumped up onto the fault, and continued jumping towards higher faults.

Although the fault leading to the upper cave was higher and lower, and even looked more like a cliff in some places, he still climbed up skillfully and reached the top of the cliff.

What appeared in his sight was a forest of glowing fungi. If he went too deep, he might encounter a group of timid mushroom people.

However, with the mentality that doing more is worse than doing less, Brian did not choose to do this.

Smelling the mushroom smell in the humid air, he rested on the spot for a while to regain his strength, and then walked straight towards the edge of the cliff top.

After arriving at his destination, he jumped without hesitation and jumped into a bottomless cliff again.

This is the second time he has jumped off a cliff in the Underdark.

It is said that the protagonist of Cliff Jump has great luck, so he hopes his luck can be as good as last time.

Feeling the roar of the wind in his ears, Brian calmly recited a spell.

With the help of "Levitation Technique", he successfully took over control of his body and carefully landed at the bottom of the rugged cliff.

Then he trudged along the winding road at the bottom.

I don’t know how long I walked in the darkness.

This winding and silent tunnel began to become brighter and brighter, and the road suddenly slanted downwards, and a cave appeared in front of him.

Looking at the familiar scene, Brian subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking that the legendary Nese Scroll was hidden here, all the fatigue in his body was swept away.

In his impression, this place was probably more unique than any scenery he had ever seen or imagined.

Glowing fungi cover most of the stone, filling the entire cave with a dim, eerie blue glow.

Stalagmites and stalactites intertwined together to form the stone pillars of the cave. Huge crystals were embedded in them, emitting mottled and dazzling light, as if tiny daggers stung his eyes.

"Hey? Is there anyone?...Ah, please help me! I've been trapped in this darkness for too long...It's been too long. Please, please get me out!"
