A group of people entered the waste crystal mine. Due to the existence of crystal clusters of various attributes, it was not as dark as they imagined.
"This place is complicated and complicated, and because it is occupied by crystal creatures that are good at digging all year round, there are countless tunnels of various sizes. I don't know the specific route. We can only rely on us to explore bit by bit."
As for the source of Stellan's intelligence, no one was stupid enough to ask. At this time, seeing that the intelligence was cut off, they all began to show their special abilities.
Jens smiled confidently: "Let's watch my performance next!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of small crystal creatures that looked like cockroaches appeared in front of him. With a wave of his hand, these crystal creatures quickly scattered away as if they had been ordered.
Jens said proudly: "This is a native crystal creature I discovered in this world. In addition to having a collective consciousness network, they also have a variety of exploration and search capabilities. They can fly and dig holes. They are also very tenacious and quite good."
use."
Lando noticed that a larger crystal cockroach had been lying on Jens's shoulder for some time. Especially its abdomen was disproportionately fat. It should be similar to a crystal cockroach mother.
Leia and Alice also noticed the big bug and subconsciously moved away from Jens. Some women in the team also made the same move, which made Jens, who was proudly showing off his pet, look stiff.
Several men who were originally interested in crystal cockroaches and planned to come forward to talk to Jens, including Jens' teammates, saw this situation and stayed away from Jens.
Jens silently collected the mother crystal cockroach.
What follows is a long period of exploration. Jens is indeed right. His crystal cockroach performs really well in exploration, which makes the female arcanists in the team ignore its ugly appearance. After all, for arcanists,
, practicality is the most important thing.
During this period, Lando also keenly discovered a strange thing. Stellan was always observing his... accompanying crystal intentionally or unintentionally.
Moreover, when encountering some special attribute elements, he would also explain the advantages and disadvantages of such elements in a little detail. Combining previous discoveries and speculations, Lando gradually came up with an idea.
"Hey, what is this?" After killing a black crystal scorpion, the special elemental properties of the crystal scorpion caught Lando's attention.
Stellan's eyes flashed and he said casually: "That is a variant of the dark element. It not only has all the properties of the dark element, but also has a strong illusion ability. It is a very useful special element."
"Oh!" Lando seemed more interested in this.
Leia asked doubtfully: "Junior Lando, do you want to change the properties of the accompanying crystal?"
Lando nodded and said helplessly: "There is this idea. Pure attributes can only strengthen the body. If it cannot be promoted to the tenth level, it feels like there is no advantage. It will take too much effort. The most important thing is that it may not be possible.
It’s better to get a ninth-level accompanying crystal weapon with special elemental attributes.”
"Ah? That's a pity, isn't it? It took a lot of effort for you to reach this level, why don't you think about it?" Leia said with some regret.
Alice suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Leia: "Senior Leia, I'm sorry to hear you're being messed with. Since Lando has already made up his mind, just leave him alone." After saying that, she left Lan indifferently.
One more look.
It seemed that Alice's words made Lando make up his mind. He did not hesitate and absorbed the special dark element into the companion crystal.
Slowly, Lando's originally pure and transparent companion crystal became dyed with a dark color.
Stellan did not see Lando's absorption process due to his perspective, but when the latter turned around, he saw the dark color on the accompanying crystal, and a hint of joy flashed in Stellan's eyes.
In the following time, Lando no longer noticed Stellan's observation of him. He looked at the latter and saw that the other party's accompanying crystal was also on his left hand. It was pure white in color and seemed to be fused with some special light attribute.
element.
For more than a month, they have explored the third level of the waste crystal mine. The terrain becomes more complex as they go down, but the entrances to the lower levels gradually decrease.
They found dozens of entrances to the second floor on the first floor, but only a dozen from the second to third floors. Now that the third floor has almost been explored by the group, only seven entrances to the fourth floor have been found.
The reason why they went to such great lengths to fully explore was initially to 'spawn monsters', but later they discovered that each floor had completely sealed areas. If they wanted to explore other areas, they could only return to the upper floor and enter through other passages. After all, it was
In the underground cave, if they excavate the passage, if the mine collapses, they will have to GG collectively. Instead of taking risks, it is better to spend more time.
Now, including Lando, everyone's accompanying crystals have been upgraded to level nine and cannot be upgraded anymore. Therefore, everyone is a little impatient when encountering crystal creatures. But is there any room for escape in this kind of terrain?
, we can only take action.
The person who contributed the most during this period, besides Jens as the 'leader', was his teammate James Harty who had the barrier ability. If he hadn't used the barrier ability to protect the mine during the battle, maybe this place would have been destroyed.
Collapsed.
After killing a group of seventh-level crystal creatures again, everyone was too lazy to talk and took the time to rest.
No one noticed that a blue soul was collected by Lando, and no one noticed that under the cover and condensation of the heart space, the crystal energy was absorbed by Lando's accompanying crystal that should have been saturated.
Seeing everyone's fatigue, Stellan thought for a while and said: "Based on the current exploration and the comparison of the information I have obtained, it is no surprise that the 'Abyss of Nothingness' is on the fifth, fourth and fifth floors of the Waste Crystal Mine.
There will definitely not be many entrances, there may even be only one, and we are very close to success!"
Stellan's speech cheered everyone up, and after resting, they set off on the road again.
The fourth floor was indeed as sparse as Stellan had guessed. They had explored most of the area and had yet to find an entrance to the fifth floor.
Just when they were exploring a new area on the fourth floor again, this area showed a different state, which made the group feel excited.
As soon as we arrived here, we saw a straight and diagonal passage going downwards, and the passage became wider and wider.
Because it is clear at a glance, there is no need to worry about attacks from crystal creatures that suddenly emerge. The group of people quickened their pace slightly and soon came to a wide and huge underground cave. The cave was full of black crystal stones, and the end of the cave was where they were.
The entrance to the fifth floor that you have been looking for.
Even with the Arcanist's rationality, they couldn't help but cheer at the feeling of success after suffering.
In the end, the cheers were muted, because the densely packed black crystal stones on the ground came to life when they heard the movement. What kind of stones were these? They were clearly crystal scorpions huddled together. The largest one was only more than ten meters tall and covered in body.
It exudes a black aura that looks like substance, and the two huge scorpion claws are shining with cold light. The back is densely covered with granular crystal protrusions, especially the scorpion tail stinger behind it, which is faintly green, and it looks very poisonous at first glance.
