When the body was immersed in the thick and soft soil again, Woody's vision was directly restricted, but his hearing was expanded exponentially.
He felt Angelena's footsteps ringing from above his head, like ripples on the water, with extremely clear landing points.
He didn't care about these, but tried his best to sense other "ripples". Although it was extremely dangerous to fall and collapse, there was still a glimmer of hope. He just had to have a clear conscience.
It took a lot of time to open a deep pit with a radius of twenty meters, which was four times the range of Woody's perception. After all, he moved much slower in the mud than on land. At least Woody found that if he just stayed in
If the soil is shallow, it will be difficult for him to catch up with Angelina's "ripples".
Tens of seconds later, Woody, who searched in the shallow soil, simply transmitted information to Angelina through telepathy.
"How about it, have you noticed their remaining breath? If you don't feel it, jump once. If you feel it, jump twice."
After a while, there was a crisp vibration and tremor from the ground surface, just once.
It seems like it's still down there, or...
Speaking of which, there was good news that he forgot to tell Angelina.
He found no other obstacles in the shallow soil, which to some extent also showed that they still had a chance of survival, at least the bodies were not here.
However, he continued to sink about two to three meters, and he felt that there was a flat object in his perception, like a long wooden board, appearing on the right side of the sinking. This kind was different from the granular metal ore.
.
He allowed his body to slowly approach the obstacle, and then controlled his right hand to touch the "flat obstacle".
Woody's heart gradually sank when he touched it, but he couldn't pretend that he didn't notice anything.
It felt a little hard when he started, but it was definitely not an obstacle formed by metal ore or carving. He also groped for a piece of cloth that could be wrapped around the obstacle and could be rubbed.
It's the body of the victim.
But it was discovered that Woody didn't have the ability to pull the body out of the soil or identify its appearance.
The head is probably crushed, judging from the perception.
All he could do was take out part of the fabric on his body for Angelina to identify.
Although a little cruel, that's all he can do.
Woody fumbled and tore off a piece of fabric from the body of the found victim, and then stuffed it into the "dimension ring". He did not rush back to the top, but continued to search on this level.
If nothing unexpected happens, Angelena's younger brothers and sisters will definitely not be the only ones who die when the pit collapses. There must be others. It takes too much time to go back and forth, so it is better to collect enough sample information to let
She identified them one by one.
Sure enough, after the body of the first victim was found in a certain range of soil, other victims were also densely distributed within this general range. Woody even found several collapsed voids created by the tremor worms.
The cavity, like the bubbles in the tempered film, is briefly surrounded by earth and stone.
But Woody just leaned over, stuck his head out to see if there were any traces of the victims, and then took it back.
After all, he has telepathy. Whether there is a living thing or not can be detected by his mind. If he is not a professional, it will be difficult to learn how to avoid the mind.
It is worth mentioning that some races enslaved by psykers are born with psychic resistance, such as the gray dwarves who have been enslaved by the mind flayers for centuries. Their racial specialty is to increase psychic resistance.
Dee's level of perception makes it difficult to perceive his position based on this.
…
Half an hour later, Woody put the last collected victim's token into the ring. He planned to end this underground adventure. The collapse left him with almost no clues except the corpse. The only good one was probably
The tokens of dozens of people in the ring.
Obviously, during the benefit performance in the garden that day, in addition to Angelina's younger brothers and sisters, others, including servants of the Vermeer family, also became part of this land.
After deciding to leave, Woody did not float directly up. Instead, he quickly found an abandoned underground tunnel and stuck his head out to sense gravity to confirm the direction. After confirming these steps, Woody floated up.
Because the Sol Stone Movement can cause the subject who has stayed in the soil for a long time to lose their five senses, it is like you can never walk in a straight line with your eyes closed, and there is no gravity when traveling in the soil.
What he did just now was to regain his sense of direction and determine the upward direction. This was a crucial and final step in returning to the ground.
Soon, Woody sensed the end of the soil ahead, and the surface was approaching.
He quickly approached, then straightened his entire body, with his head facing upwards.
When we returned to the surface again, the clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker, as if they were hanging over the tiankeng, and people standing on it could reach out and touch it.
Woody's appearance naturally attracted the attention of Angelena, who was struggling to carry stones and was looking for Lin and others. Her extraordinary perception made her look in Woody's direction almost subconsciously. When she saw Woody's empty hands, and
When her face turned solemn, her expression also became ugly.
Woody recited the spell engraved on the ring, stopped the stone walking technique, and then pulled Qian Qian's feet out of the soil before formally looking at Angelina.
He walked over and without saying anything else, he handed over various pieces of clothing collected from the ground to the young monk girl who was also walking here.
"Identify them one by one to see if there are any scents of your brothers, sisters, or others inside."
"There are no living people down there. After confirming which one they are, we will see if we can bring them up when the time comes."
The atmosphere at this moment was extremely solemn. Although Angelina had been prepared in her heart, when she looked at the colorful pieces of mud-covered rags or one or two pieces of jewelry in Woody's hand, the hand she took over couldn't help but tremble.
For the first time, she felt that she could sense a familiar aura. This ability was so terrifying that she was put off and did not dare to use it.
But she couldn't refuse, so she could only accept the cold things that were light in her hand but extremely heavy in her heart.
The first one was a black copper button, which Woody pulled casually.
Angelena breathed a sigh of relief.
The second one is a small piece of white rag. Judging from the workmanship, it seems to be some kind of high-quality woven clothing.
There is still no familiar smell on it.
Angelina calmed down and suddenly felt that she was no longer afraid. She began to seriously feel the scent of every small item Woody brought.
Time passed by, and Angelina put down the last token, a black ribbon.
She finally took a breath and looked at the young nobleman who had been sitting next to her.
"Is that all?"
"Yes, this is where I can find all the victims. The ten meters below are already granite, and the geology there has not been damaged."
Woody explained that his method of digging three feet into the ground meant that unless Lin and others fell into a different dimension, such as the Fairy Wilderness or the Shadowfell Underworld, there would be no trace of them.
"But there is no aura of Lin and others in it, really not."
Angelina was immediately confused when she heard Woody's words, and Woody was also a little confused after hearing it.
What, no?
Although he desperately hoped that there would be no trace of their presence in these tokens, because it would at least mean that they were still alive, but when it turned out that there was none, Woody couldn't help but be curious.
"Where did the man go? Or where did the body go?"
Grain locust
This is not a script where everyone has an adventure when jumping off a cliff. The bloody reality below has already made Woody realize that this disaster is extremely real, and God will never let it go just because of the child, unless the person who planned this incident
The initiator...
A possibility suddenly flashed through Woody's mind, a possibility that he had buried in dusty memories.
"Let's go up."
Woody immediately called to the monk girl. Although Angelina was puzzled, she still followed his steps.
After he went up, he declined the group of nobles and directly found the member of the Vermeer family who was in charge of the pension business and stopped Angelena.
Vann.
"Two adults, do you have anything to do with me?"
When Vann Vermeer saw Woody and Angelina coming over, he thought it was the queen who was settling accounts, and he was immediately trembling with fear and trembling.
"Show me the estate pension list."
"Ah?" Fann was a little dazed, but he quickly realized what the pension list meant.
"I have it here, I have it here."
Vann hurriedly took out the parchment list hidden in his coat pocket.
After Woody took it, there were two rows of names densely displayed on it. Among them, Lin's pseudonym Noah, and the other three pseudonyms were all recognized by Angelina one by one.
"Ten, eleven, twelve...a total of thirty-three victims and twenty-three tokens."
Woody counted the number of people, then counted the tokens he had just received, and then asked Vann.
"Are we only sending ten children for this benefit performance? The others are adults and servants from your manor."
"Yes, yes, how do you know?"
"Are there any clothes for these children to change?" Woody's unclear answer really confused Vann, but he still nodded.
"They did leave the shoes they changed here to avoid being rude in front of the distinguished guests."
"Bring it over."
He already had a guess in his mind. He looked at the list of ten children and thought silently. Angelina seemed to have understood something, but she still stood quietly beside Woody without saying much.
Soon the children's shoes were brought over, and Woody directly asked Angelina to take them to sense the breath.
"Look, except for the breath of your younger brothers and sisters, they are all completely unfamiliar to me."
Angelena was a little uncomfortable when she received the shoes at first, but after hearing this, she became a little more serious. After a while, she frowned and said.
"That's right, except for Lin and the others whose auras are attached to it, this is the first time I've sensed the auras of anyone else."
After hearing this, Woody showed a look of understanding and sighed.
"They all disappeared and were captured by the drow. I forgot about it. The drow may have done it on purpose."
"What's the purpose?" Angelena looked a little excited.
"Take advantage of the chaos to rob the children, and then wait for an opportunity to come back!" Woody looked at the pit not far away, his voice was low but enough for Angelina to hear clearly.
"But...haven't we already taken precautions? Drow has other methods?"
Angelena was a little unbelievable. After all, not to mention the city gates, even the docks had started to detect people coming in and out. Everyone must look directly at the beam of light emitted by the magic lighthouse.
"certainly."
Woody didn't say another half of the sentence because he was afraid Angelina wouldn't be able to accept it.
After all, if this is the case, then her younger brothers and sisters will most likely become the pawns of the drow's next plan in the future.
It becomes one that is not afraid of bright light, and is no different from a human being at ordinary times, but during battle, it will have six additional auxiliary spider legs on its back, as well as more silk spinning on its palms, soles and navel, and it will have magic-like abilities...
——"Half-Spider Man".
The reason why Woody forgot this is because after the Year of Darkness, the spider-men chose to break away from the control of the drow and became their own masters just like the gray dwarves broke away from the mind flayers.
Woody remembered that their gathering place was the ruins of a city in the Underdark. He had also been there for supplies, but unfortunately, as the haze of the Corrupted Mother Tree completely swept across the material plane, that
The gathering place quickly disappeared from the history of the mainland and became an insignificant place.
It is worth mentioning that the destruction of Arsenant's plane did not end the birth of half-arachnians, because when players create characters, they can open the "half-arachnids" as long as they gain a favorable opinion of more than friendly in the half-arachnoid city.
Race options.
Moreover, after entering the main material plane "Terra", half-arachnoid players will be directly included in Rose's beliefs, and their status is not low, but at that time, half-arachnoid players no matter what gender you were as a human.
Eventually they will be forcibly transformed into females.
…
At Vermeer Manor, Woody already knew what he wanted to know, so he did not stay there for long. He took Angelina with him and quickly left the manor under the watch of everyone.
On the way, Angelina couldn't wait to ask.
"So they're not dead yet?"
"I think so, if nothing else happens."
Woody smiled. Since the sinkhole this time was to cover up the conspiracy to enter Palermo next time, the reason was particularly clear. All he had to do was tell the relevant personnel to add a small hole to check whether the hands and feet were sprayed with spider silk.
This will prevent this infiltration.
As for the safety of Lin and others, Woody plans to go back and ask his aunt Susan for her opinion.
After all, I heard that she, other nobles in the city, and the advance team of the temple organization had entered the Dark Territory.
If we can really destroy the drow, we should be able to rescue Lin and the others along the way.
There is no need for him to take action at all.
And Woody also told Angelina his plan, and the monk girl still had no doubts at all.
But she didn't listen to Woody and chose to wait where she was.
She planned to follow him to the Underdark.
Since Lin and the others are not dead yet, then she is the older sister.
