Chapter Eleven Mia's Whereabouts

 This was the first time that Fang Plover could clearly see the whole picture of this giant creature, which was as tall as a mountain. It looked like a giant deep-sea multi-legged octopus, sitting quietly at the bottom of the pit, with its torso leaning on the rock.

In the wall, an oval head is as high as the cliff.

Layers of copper-plated armor cover its torso, reflecting a silky luster in the dim light. It is thick and majestic. The bulges of the scales are covered with soil, covered with shrubs and lichen, like a

Layers of gardens. The huge eye sockets are slightly tilted outward at the connection between the trunk and the wrists and feet. Under the moss cover, the inner sockets have lost their luster and are dark, like two tall caves.

The sky gradually brightened, with blue and purple dyed with a layer of morning glow. The morning light shone on its yellow shell, revealing bright purple and pink light with a hint of halo. Several red-tailed robins flew over and fell into it.

In the forest above, the clear chirping of birds immediately sounded from the bottom of the pit.

Only then did Fang Plover realize that this behemoth seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. Its twelve arms and legs ended with those ferocious giant insects. The four pairs of dark red eyes on its head had also lost their luster, and they were entangled at the bottom of the pit.

,like a statue.

He stood there and observed carefully for a while before he was sure that the other party had stopped moving. Although he didn't know whether it was the arrival of daylight that made the giant thing quiet down, or whether it was for some other reason.

Fang Yu became bolder and temporarily put aside the matter of Miya and the dagger. After looking around, he realized that he had landed on a platform with layers of rubble of buildings underneath. He then

I came to the edge and looked down - it's not very steep.

He then grabbed the edge and slowly climbed down from there - it was a bit difficult without any help, and he couldn't help but miss the days when he was still in the adventure group. While thinking about this, he spent a few minutes laboriously climbing

When we got to the bottom of the pit, the light at the bottom was still a little dark, and the air was filled with the smell of earth and moss.

He looked to the north, and saw the lake water hanging down from the cliff like a curtain, still falling in the thin air. Under the rising sun, the water mist shone brightly, with a faint rainbow hanging there. A pool had been formed below, and Fang Plover only felt

My mouth was dry and my throat was on fire. I hurriedly walked over to the pool, leaned over, picked up the water droplets, and took a big sip.

The feeling of being soaked by the cold water made the pores all over his body relax, and his whole body felt refreshed, as if he was coming to life again, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath of comfort.

However, Fang Yu couldn't bear it and didn't dare to drink more.

This place is thousands of miles away from Kapka, and his regular medicines are also left in his backpack. If he unfortunately contracts any sudden illness, it will be bearable, but it will be even more funny if he accidentally loses his life.

His stomach was growling with hunger, and he seemed to have very little energy left. Fortunately, he had always been in the habit of preparing early, and he still had a few biscuits stuffed in his trouser pockets, but this was also his last reserve food, and he would be lucky if he got there next.

To escape from here, I still don’t know how to trek out of the vast sea of ​​ancient trees on foot.

But he didn't worry too much. Anyway, he was used to taking one step at a time before speaking.

Fang Plover bit into half a piece of biscuit, chewed it and swallowed it. Finally, his stomach was a little bit refreshed. Then he raised his head and looked at the motionless giant.

He had already observed that there was no way up to the ground from the bottom of the pit. The only way now was to find a way to climb to the top of this big guy.

He knew that large constructed organisms like this generally had emergency passages provided for maintenance by craftsmen, and he didn't know if the ancient alchemists had this habit. If not -

That would be too cheating.

Fang Plover walked half a circle around this small mountain-like cephalopod construct, and finally found the entrance at its bottom. He leaned over there, but the impact of the giant thing's fall caused the soil below to liquefy.

, it was muddy, making it very difficult for him to trek.

Water is still rising upwards in some places, and the water waves flow from north to south, which shows that the terrain is lower in that direction. The beak of a cephalopod is generally located under its body, where the arms and legs connect to the trunk, and the entrance is also there -

—As for those arms and legs, Fang Plover walked carefully past these sleeping giant insect constructs.

He was a little worried at first, but he soon relaxed and his curiosity took over again. It was a pity that he didn't have a user interface, otherwise he would have taken two pictures of them and put them on the community, which might cause a sensation. He walked over and lightly

I touched their metal shells lightly and found no response. Then I stroked them again. The touch was very unique.

Only then did Fang Yu realize that the ancient alchemists were really rich. The shell coating of this thing was not copper but pure gold, and the components inside were almost pure copper - because it was more suitable for the transmission of magic power. As for the need to balance the power of magic power and

The stronger part is mithril.

His mouth watered at the sight.

I even wanted to take two pieces apart, especially the mithril part, but after thinking about it, I still didn't dare to do it. Not to mention that I didn't have the tools at hand, it would be fun if I woke up this big guy.

He patted the big guy's shell and sighed. He thought that this adventure was a loss of blood, not to mention the loss of three clockwork goblins. In the end, the money Scarpe gave him was lost under the ruins.

Not to mention the alchemy tools that I finally saved in my backpack.

Fang Plover's heart was full of negative impressions of the Jefflite Red Team and the Silver Forest Spear, but he just cursed in his heart. He had not lived enough to confront the Grand Guild head-on.

Of course, if given the chance, he wouldn't mind at all to cause some trouble, especially for the Jeffree Red Team, in order to avenge everyone.

There will always be a chance, Fang Yu thought to himself.

He just walked under the shadow of the hill, and suddenly the chirping of the red-tailed robins came from above his head. The square plover raised his head and happened to see these brown and red birds flying in groups.

He was somewhat surprised to see a figure appearing on the edge of the cliff in that direction.

At that moment, Fang Yu's heart seemed to skip a beat, and he immediately recognized who it was - it was Miya.

But the girl didn't notice him below. She raised her right hand to unbutton her shawl, pulled it off and threw it to the ground, revealing her exquisite figure underneath. The girl wore a thin-scale tights, with tall and straight breasts, between the collarbones.

There is a unique star-shaped ornament pinned to the position.

She gathered her long silver hair with her backhand and tied it into a bundle under her neck and above her shoulder blades with a silver ring.

Then he jumped down.

Fang Plover was so frightened when he saw this scene that he almost screamed out, but immediately saw Miya falling down lightly, like a piece of feather, and finally disappeared into the forest above this behemoth.

"Wind, the wind element is in sync?" Fang Plover knew about the rarest magic adaptability, the wind magic adaptability. People with such adaptability will have a certain buoyancy in the sea, which is similar to the working principle of a floating ship.

People with such aptitude are born as sky knights. They are the top talents among the natives and the chosen ones. They are often the top talents that major forces compete to attract.

The Chosen are often jokingly referred to as the reserves for large fleets.

But not everyone can skillfully use this ability.

Except for those overlords in the sky, dragon knights and sky knights——

Is Miya really a dragon knight or aerial knight? Fang Plover couldn't help but touch his chest. The previous scene was still in front of him. But the other party had never shown this in front of others, and even he had always

I thought Miya was just an ordinary fire magic adaptor.

Only after seeing the other party's figure disappear completely did Fang Plover open his mouth but said nothing.

Only then did he realize that what he knew might not be everything about Miya.

It might not even be considered a mask, and a kind of unequal resentment could not help but arise in his heart, but before the anger went to his head, Fang Plover gradually calmed down.

Just like a young man's troubles, there will always be a moment when he suddenly realizes that all this is just wishful thinking.

He sighed slightly.

My heart feels a little empty.

But no matter what, he thought that he would always ask the other person's thoughts: Why did she leave at that time? Why did she give him the dagger? What was her purpose?

With this idea in mind - but it could also be that he simply wanted to see her again, Fang Pliong couldn't help but speed up his pace.

He came to the entrance, grabbed the maintenance ladder on the arm shell and climbed up. The entrance was a tightly closed metal lid with a valve on it. He grabbed the valve with both hands and turned it.

There was an exhaust sound, and then it opened with a snap.

Fang Yu put his hand into the door and pulled up with all his strength before hanging up. He couldn't help but feel glad that his injury was better, otherwise he would not be able to enter the door.

After entering the interior of this huge constructed creature, Fang Yu couldn't help but be shocked.

Inside is a long maintenance channel, connecting the entrance from one end to the other. There are simple railings on both sides, and the bridge deck is covered with barbed wire. Looking down, there are rows of dark copper gears below. The largest one can have two.

He is tall and his teeth are closely interlocked.

There is a larger brass balance weight on each side of the passage. It extends from above and is blocked by the ceiling. Only half of it can be seen. One end is connected to the transmission connecting rod. Only the connecting rod is as thick as him, and its length is

Seven or eight times his.

Beyond that is a dense network of pipelines that lead to nowhere.

There are three luminous crystals suspended above the head. They are actually held on the Guy Ring. The latter is made of scraps from the buoyancy engine of the aerospace ship. It looks like an ordinary ring, but it has a certain buoyancy.

—Used as a lamp.

These dim lights are the only illumination in this passage.

Fang Plover then carefully crossed the maintenance bridge. His thick leather shoes were still dripping water mixed with sediment on the barbed wire fence. The bridge made a creaking sound. Because the passage was very quiet, such a strange sound

It really makes my scalp numb.

What's more important is that he is afraid that this rusty barbed wire bridge will suddenly break. After all, there are too many film and television works with such bridges.

Fortunately, the fantasy did not happen. At the other end of the passage was an iron staircase that turned back and went up. This structure did not exceed Fang Plover's expectations.

When he was in Kapka, he visited the internal structure of the Type 87-A giant puppet of the Kaolin Kingdom. It was one of the most expensive teaching aids of the Kapka Craftsmen Association. Although the Numerin elves had long since disappeared in the era when that thing was born,

The internal structures of the two are identical.

Including the maintenance bridge and the way to enter the upper level, there is almost no difference. This shows that although Aitalia has experienced several disasters in its history, the techniques of the ancient alchemists still seem to have been relatively intact to this day.

But the upper level is not the core power room as imagined - it is the lift compartment on the flying wing ship, and it is usually the place where the core crystal is placed in the ground magic guide - Fang Yu thought he could see the legendary ice

Feldspar, but failed to do so.

Only then did he realize that this hill-like structure was much larger than the giant puppet of the Kaolin-Ithurian Alliance.

The second floor is also a maintenance passage. The corridor is filled with dust and dirt, and is filled with a smell of rust. No one has set foot on it for many years. Fang Pulmon even saw a few iron plates growing together with the ground.

Inseparable from each other.

There is a living area further up, a long corridor with house numbers on both sides. Fang Plover has not studied the words on it and cannot understand it. Some doors are still open, and there is nothing inside. Except for the ones mentioned before, the corridor is empty.

There was no strange smell other than rust, no smell of mold, and no bones in sight.

It seems that this big guy was left here intentionally, and its original owner at least did not leave in a hurry.

Fang Plover went deeper and deeper, becoming more and more curious about what was the last instruction this big guy received. Was its original owner the Numerin elves? Why did they leave their homeland and leave this thing behind?

He vaguely felt that Miya might know the truth, but then he thought about the other party's purpose - was her purpose the same as that of the Silver Forest Spear, Jeffrit and others?

Fang Yu was not a fool, and he vaguely guessed that Miya might have put everyone together, because neither side obviously gained anything from the fight last night.

Of course, let alone the Dawn Star Adventure Group who are cannon fodder.

Fang Yu suddenly wanted to know how Miss Scarpet and the others were doing outside now. How many people in the adventure group survived? Although those who died were destined to never return to this world.

It's a pity that he doesn't have a UI and can't contact the outside world.

He stopped and pressed his hand on his chest. Scarpe's glow stone was still in his pocket, which made him feel a little relieved. At this time, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the darkness in front of him.

.

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment. He should be on the fourth or fifth floor now. He was still on the lower floor. Logically speaking, there should be some distance between him and Miya. Could it be that there are others inside this huge structure?

Is it Jeffrit or a man from the Silver Forest Spear? Or is it the Numelin Elves?

But what made him most uneasy was that he was afraid that the person coming was not a human being.

The voice quickly approached, and there was a fork in the road ahead. Fang Plover cautiously took a step back, hiding behind the wall and looking outside without daring to say anything.

Then he saw a white shadow walking quickly across the fork, and Fang Yu was slightly startled - he realized that it was clearly Miya's back.

He chased him out——

But the corridor was so dark that no one could be seen at all.

"Going so fast?" Fang Yu was a little stunned. He subconsciously opened his mouth to shout, but somehow he retracted his voice. After thinking about it, he closed his mouth and followed in that direction.

He was not walking slowly, and the floor made a hollow sound in the darkness. After a while, Fang Plover suddenly realized that Miya couldn't have heard his footsteps. He just had such suspicion, but suddenly he saw

The front has reached the end - the corridor leads to the only room. I can't help but feel happy, now I don't have to worry about losing it.

But after walking through the door, Fang Plover was stunned again.

He originally thought he could see Miya here, but there was a platform behind the door. It was empty outside. How could there be any trace of the girl?

Fang Plover couldn't help but look around. The platform was made up of that kind of maintenance channel. There was a layer of barbed wire between the iron frames, and there were simple railings around it. It was pitch black in front, and there was a railing somewhere below.

It was knocked away and bent outward.

Did she jump from here?

Fang Yu couldn't help but froze when he saw it. There was no need to break the railing?

Fang Yu felt confused and couldn't help but leaned over to take a look. But before he reached the edge, he suddenly felt someone behind him push him hard.

At that time, he lost his center of gravity and fell out of the gap. His heart became cold. When he looked back, he just saw a figure formed by a white mist gradually emerging on the platform.

There was a burst of sharp laughter in the darkness, and the owner of that voice seemed extremely proud and arrogant.

"Hahahahaha..."

The laughter echoed in the black space, and it seemed very ethereal. It was not like the sound that a human could make. Fang Pulver broke out in a cold sweat, and then he realized what kind of ghost he had encountered - a resentful spirit.

How could he forget these damn things?

In the shadowy underground of Aitaria, adventurers can always encounter these things unexpectedly. These negative energy creatures born of resentment will inadvertently read people's negative emotions and become their hearts.

That uneasy look lured them step by step into the trap of death.

Fang Yu was very familiar with these things - from the descriptions of the top recruiters on TV, the Internet. He thought that he was definitely not comparable to those newcomers, and would not be able to fall into such a bad trick, but he did not expect that the third

I encountered this thing once, and I fell for it just because I was confused for a moment.

He couldn't help but cursed secretly, these ghosts were too pervasive.

But there will be no next time.

This time it was definitely his bad luck, Fang Yu defended himself in his heart very embarrassedly.

Fortunately, he still had another chance to use the slow-falling component, otherwise this time he would really have capsized in the gutter. Fang Piao glanced at the arrogant resentful spirit unhappily, and thought to himself, just wait, and then used his backhand to suppress the magic guide.

Furnace tie rod.

But under this pressure, he broke into a cold sweat.

Where is his magic furnace?

Such a big magic furnace, he clearly put it there, but why is it missing?

Then he finally reacted and immediately looked back, and sure enough he saw a foggy figure floating in the air holding his magic furnace in one hand, and smiling triumphantly at himself.

"I——!" Fang Plover really cursed this time. Unfortunately, before he could say anything, he felt as if a wall suddenly stood up in the darkness and slapped him in the face. There was a loud bang and it hit him hard.

His vision went dark.

Fang Plover lay on the floor, and it took him a long time to catch his breath.
