The two recruited Avalon light crossbowmen swore allegiance to Zong Shen in accordance with recruitment practices.
Zong Shen nodded, with a smile on his face.
"Very good, you are welcome to join."
"Now we are in an ancient abandoned mine and may face danger at any time."
"Now you are temporarily under the command of the dragonborn rangers Madeline and Mapel, and you will attack from the rear with them."
The two new crossbowmen naturally had no objection and nodded obediently.
Zong Shen waved to the ranger sisters, who immediately came over, led the two lightly-armed crossbowmen to the rear, and began to introduce some of the territory and this exploration mission.
On the same spot, Zong Shen disassembled the treasure box with his backhand and began to examine the two badly damaged cowhide backpacks.
The durability of these two backpacks is very low, and they may be completely broken at any time due to severe damage.
There are seven items left in total, and there should be some valuable items among them.
He opened the two backpacks directly and placed all the items inside on the ground.
[Book: "Explorer's Notes"]
[Bosibon District Map x1]
[Corrupted Healing Potion x4]
[Azshara Mining Area Map x1]
[Baron Bezos’s Pendant x1]
[Excellent mining pickaxe x2]
[Baron Bezos’ wallet x1]
There are seven items in total, none of which are of high value. The more interesting ones are the two maps.
However, it is quite useless for Zong Shen who has the strategy module.
Next is the wallet and pendant. There are 1,200 dinars in the wallet, as well as some golden cards indicating identity and title. Magic runes are drawn on these cards, which are some simple magic items.
As for the pendant, it seems to have a little more story. The pendant is heart-shaped and can be opened by flipping the cover.
Zong Shen pushed it away with his thumb, and a shadow the size of a fist emerged.
It is an image of a dignified woman wearing luxurious silk clothes.
[Baron Bezos’ pendant]
[Pendant with photo-taking magic]
[Return it to Baron Bezos and you will gain his friendship]
(This pendant was a relic left to Baron Bezos by his mother. His mother died when he was very young. This pendant was lost in the mine when he came here to explore decades ago.
, he escaped in a hurry and he was not sure where he lost it. If you can return it to him, you will get his reward)
Another item related to Baron Bezos,
In addition to this pendant, Zong Shen also had a pocket watch belonging to Baron Bezos that he obtained from Hideki Mitani.
It seems that this Baron Bezos was not a fuel-efficient lamp when he was young. He had the dream of becoming an explorer and explored the ruins of the ancient elven city Azshara.
However, it is obvious that this guy's exploration results are mediocre, and he often encounters attacks and setbacks.
Zong Shen put away all his things. These items will be of great use when he goes to Bosibon City.
Baron Bezos is a minor aristocrat of the aboriginal forces. If he can establish a good relationship with him, he will be able to gain a lot of convenience in Boss State.
"The wolf cavalry clears the way, all march to the right passage!"
"Be alert and be ready to deal with spider web monster attacks at any time!"
Zong Shen took out the broken Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword and pointed at the passage on the right.
This will lead to the web monster's lair in the mine.
Once you clear the passage on the right, you can obtain the rune key to the mine warehouse in the passage on the left.
Therefore, Zong Shen must conquer this place!
After hearing the order given by Zong Shen, the soldiers marched towards the passage on the right in an orderly manner according to the previous formation, with Zong Shen and Luna still in the middle.
The spider webs in the right passage also have obvious signs of being burned, but there are still many spider webs left.
There is even a new layer of pure white web on the ground, which must have been repaired by the spider web monsters in the past two days.
This passage is about half narrower than the entrance passage of the mine.
Only six wolf cavalry could be allowed to move in parallel. They swept aside all the cobwebs on the ground along the way, clearing a path for the rear.
The light beam of the magic flashlight illuminates the passage, and you can see that the passages on both sides are very smooth, and they are also covered with smoky traces.
There are also piles of bones and broken egg shells on both sides of the mine tunnel, as well as some severed limbs from the spider web monsters.
They all look to be quite old. Obviously, there is definitely no shortage of fights in this mine.
But the most obvious thing is the traces of flames, especially since the entire top of the mine is almost completely pitch black.
It can be seen that Zong Shen's previous fire caused great harm to these spider web monsters.
Zong Shen and others went deep into the passage on the right and continued to advance for several minutes, but they still did not attract the attention of the spider web monster, which was extremely suspicious.
Those spider web monsters are the overlords of this mining area. They are very active and will even go to the left passage to hunt kobolds.
But today was very unusual. Zong Shen and so many of his younger brothers arrived at their doorstep, but he didn't even see a spider web monster.
After continuing to move forward for a few minutes, the deeper we went into the passage, the denser the cobwebs became, and the covered burn marks became more and more obvious. However, this area had obviously been repaired, and the cobwebs were incredibly white. .
Zong Shen stretched out his hand to pick up a handful of spider silk. It felt a little sticky, but it was full of resilience. He wondered whether he should take some back with him.
I don’t know if the spider webs can be reprocessed. After all, these spider webs have no hint of properties.
Moreover, this thing is so flammable that a single spark can burn a large area. Although it has a certain degree of sturdiness, it cannot last long in the face of continuous burning by flames.
After advancing in the passage for more than ten minutes, they finally walked out of the right passage.
A mine hall that suddenly opened up appeared in front of me.
The top is at least a hundred meters high, and a row of two- and three-story stone buildings are built on one side.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is the office area of this mining area, almost turning into a world completely covered by spider webs.
Especially that row of buildings was filled with a lot of spider webs.
It was a real silk hole, which made Zong Shen instinctively feel uncomfortable, with goosebumps all over his body.
But the even more nerve-wracking situation is still ahead. In front of the road is an open area, which is a fork in the mine hall. To the left and in front of it is a new mine road, leading to the living area and other areas.
place.
At this time, this open area was completely occupied by densely packed spider eggs.
These basketball-sized oval spider eggs are covered with light green spots that fluoresce green in the dark.
The fluorescence shines through the egg shell, revealing the dark shadows inside the spider egg that are constantly moving.
Zong Shen's scalp felt numb when he saw it, and he wished he could immediately use a fire to burn it again.
"Stop it first, something's wrong."
Zong Shen asked the team to stop. He instinctively felt that this time was a little strange.
"Where are those spider web monsters? Why didn't they attack us?"
He asked the guide in his mind.
(The spiderweb lord once found the remains of the Azshara Alliance resistance deep in the mines, and found a demon heart that once belonged to the blood-burning demon leader.
Because the mines have been attacked repeatedly recently, the spider web monster lord felt a sense of crisis, and finally decided to devour the devil's heart. At this moment, it was undergoing a strange and terrifying transformation, and all the spider web monsters were in danger.
guarding it)
"I see…"
Zong Shen knew it well, and it seemed that everything was caused by himself.
The first time I came, I set a fire to burn the cobweb hole.
The second time I came here, I killed a spider web monster prophet, a spider web monster queen, and dozens of spider web monster warriors. It would be an exaggeration to say that it was a blood feud.
No wonder it makes the spider web monster lord feel such a strong sense of crisis.
Hunter and hunter are actually a very vague role concept.
Don't look at this group of spider web monsters entrenched here. They are very powerful and hunt everywhere.
But when it comes to really tough situations, they are prey!
Zong Shen looked at the row of buildings in front of him.
If I remember correctly, in this office area, there is a bronze treasure chest and the key to the mining area warehouse on the left.
These houses were covered in cobwebs. Those cobwebs occupied almost every inch of space, making it impossible to search.
Zong Shen put away his heavy sword and took out the Monotov flamethrower, which still contained the fuel bottle left from the original test.
He aimed at the office area and directly pulled the trigger of the flamethrower.
Some lines on the gun made of runic mithril suddenly lighted up.
The fuel in the fuel bottle began to be extracted, and a tongue of flame flew out, spanning a distance of more than ten meters and hitting the stone houses.
"Crackling..."
The cobwebs in the house were instantly ignited and the flames began to burn.
Zong Shen turned the muzzle of the flamethrower and ignited a row of houses before he stopped breathing fire.
He lit it carefully to ensure that the fire only burned in a row of houses and did not spread to other areas.
In this kind of Pansi Cave, once the fire spreads, it will almost be out of control, which will affect their exploration progress.
After the office area was ignited, billowing black smoke emitted and poured back toward the mine tunnel from where it came.
After waiting for about five minutes, the cobwebs were burned away, simply, crudely, and cleanly.
The walls inside the house were already pitch black, and in the faint smoke, the residual heat quickly dissipated.
Zong Shen asked everyone to disperse and search separately, and he himself walked into one of the stone houses.
The interior layout is very simple and seems to have been swept and cleaned.
On the ground were wooden tables and wooden chairs that had rotted to pieces. After so many years, they had been burned again by fire. There was nothing valuable left at all, only pools of black ashes.
There are stairs leading to the second floor on one side of the house.
Zong Shen walked upstairs slowly and found that the situation on the second floor was similar. The original furnishings were basically in decay.
When he arrived, he picked up a few heavily rusted black iron nameplates on the ashes on the ground.
There seems to be some names and information engraved on it, but unfortunately the surface is covered with rust marks and the writing on it can't be seen clearly.
