Juliana’s workshop Chapter 28: Underground River
Marina nodded, "Of course, I won't force you to do extra work... and you won't obey, right?"
"Yes, if you go deeper and lower, I will respect your choice and decision, but I will immediately turn around and leave here." Hatchet replied, "The money you gave me, I We can only go to a certain place in the middle level, and we only have the ability to reach such a place. If we have to go further, I am afraid that neither of you nor I will have any good fruits."
Marina and Hatchet were at the entrance of this middle floor, reconfirming what they had discussed with each other. Then, the team moved on. The road in this middle level is more broken than above. Stepping on it is like stepping on a piece of muddy ground. There is a disgusting click under your feet, which makes people wonder what the soles of shoes have become. Maybe it's a mess of mud, or something more disgusting. After all, there won't be anyone doing cleaning work here, and the residents here probably don't care about hygiene.
The flame followed Chris, moving slowly. Chris tightened his cloak, walking silently in the dark, unable to even see his shadow. Then Mr. Cloak stopped and shouted behind him: "There is a dead man."
Very simple and straightforward, there is a dead person.
's words let the team listen, Icoo and Marina both frowned, "Dead?"
Chris didn't respond. There was some movement from his side, which sounded like the sound of turning heavy objects.
Ikoo turned his head to look at the hatchet at the back. There was no change on Hatchet’s face, he just shrugged, “I said that this is not a place for outings. If it’s a stupid thing to die on the hands of the small fangs in shallow water, then in the middle. , Death is just commonplace."
Having said that, Hatchet walked towards Chris. A few of them all came to Chris's side, and saw Chris squatted down near the wall. Weeds grew nearby and the surface of the wall fell off. Fortunately, there was no stopping Miscanthus nearby. Among the weeds in front of Chris, there was indeed a dead person. The dead man could no longer see the original appearance, and became a bone. The white bone also had clothing and protective leather armor, and he held a broken sword in his hand, lying on the weeds, as if he was resting temporarily.
"Strange." Hatchet said, "We must not be the only team from here recently. Will you be the first to find it?" Hatchet asked Chris.
Chris’s hand fumbled over the bones, "There are still belongings on him, but I haven’t heard of anyone who died under it." He stretched out his hand and pulled the bones of his hands off and threw them aside. "Maybe It's a skeleton, and the things on his body are too old."
"That makes sense." Hatchet stroked his chin, thinking about something, "This is not their range of activities, why?"
Looking at Chris's actions, Marina, who heard the Hatchet's words, probably understood what was going on. She asked, "Are there undead in this area?"
"Yes, but they are all skeletons, and they shouldn't be around here." Hatchet replied, "Maybe some scared newcomers were attracted when they fled, and then they were knocked down here again. ."
"It can't get up again." Chris said, "At least temporarily." He stood up and continued to walk into the dark, leaving the skeleton with his hand bones removed there. The others followed Chris. Marina looked down when she passed the skeleton. There was nothing in her dark eye sockets, but she stared straight at the people passing by, as if silently. What is being said.
"Is there a habitat for the undead near here?" Marina knew very well that something like an undead, especially a skeleton, when you see one, there may be a second, third, or even more. many.
"This is pretty good-looking." The hatchet replied at the back, "At least it can be seen that it used to be a human. As long as it is a creature with bones, it may become a movable bone. Shelf. Skeletons turned into small fangs are much trickier than human skeletons... The same is true for small fangs, necromancers have no sense of the same race."
The team walked forward for a long time, and finally left the unchanged passage. The exit slopes downwards, the **** is slippery, and you may slip to the ground if you don't pay attention. The ground is dark green moss, moistened with liquid dripping from above, growing everywhere. At the exit, everyone can hear the clear sound of flowing water, which sounds like the sound of a river. When they left the **** of the exit, they came to a new area.
This place is bigger than the channel~IndoMTL.com~ and there is a river in the middle. If this is a drainage ditch, then this ditch is a bit too wide. Although it seems that the water is not deep, it is hard to think that this wide water surface is just a ditch, not a small river. There are walkable passages on both sides of the river. The two roads are a bit far apart, and there is no bridge between them. If you walk one of the aisles, you may have to go back to the aisle at the other end. Start, or go to the end.
"There is such a place underground." Marina was a little surprised. Although Ikeo is a local resident, he has never been to such a place in the future, and he also showed the same expression. Luluna was stuck behind Marina, looking around, like a nervous child who had come to a strange place.
"Pay attention to whether there is any danger around, but Chris has already investigated. If there is any danger, we probably won't let us in like this." Hatchet said from the back, occasionally looking back. Pay attention to whether there are any abnormalities around, "Don't fall into that river, or you will feel better."
They are standing on the edge of this strange underground river. The black water is rippling slightly, not like stagnant water, it seems that something is swimming in it.
Lulunaka lay on her side, poking her head out and looking down, "There is something under that."
Seeing Lulunaka look like this, Hatchet shouted: "Don't approach the underground river in that position!"
Lulunaka was startled by the hatchet, and then something jumped out from under the water. Because of the reminder of the hatchet, she avoided the thing that swooped out of the water. The thing flew out of the water and landed beside Lulunaka.
It was a fish with several rows of fangs. The body of the fish was small and thin, and the circle of teeth was bigger than the body.
