Mystic Dominator

This cave ecosystem hidden beneath the ice sheet is quite unique.

In every cave that covers a large area, there is a dominant biological group that occupies an absolutely dominant position in this space.

At this time, Nicole prompted Ronald.

It was she and her fellow investigators who had just escaped from a dangerous biological community not long ago.

Ronald understood this.

Just think back to the state of this group of investigators when they first met.

Ronald knew very well that the creatures here were absolutely deadly killers for ordinary people!

And that's exactly what happened.

After the two of them passed through a passage that was close to the surface of the Arctic continent but with cold ice at the top, they came to another huge cave adjacent to the previous one.

The surrounding environment was exactly the same as before.

But Ronald's extraordinary visual abilities allowed him to see everything around him clearly.

Just a hundred meters in front of the two of them, a strange insect that looked a bit like a mix of scorpions and ants, and had a bunch of shovel-like chelicerates on its body, was crawling back and forth on the ground in a swarm.

Ronald could even see the details of these guys' movements.

Every time they crawl to a place, they touch the ground with their tentacles, and then quickly turn around and continue searching the surrounding ground.

Very interesting activity...

With this scene in full view, Ronald couldn't help but turn his head and look at the investigator girl beside him:

"Nicole, I can see what they're doing now."

"Are they still hunting you?"

The investigator girl curled her lips in disgust at these creatures, but quickly nodded to Ronald and replied:

"Yes, they are looking for us."

"This kind of creature mainly has two ways of sensing the environment. One is close combat-style exploration. They can react very sensitively to nearby heat sources; the other is licking the ground through their mouthparts.

Analyze the traces left by the enemy from the remaining components on the soil. "

"We discovered this characteristic of them, so we were able to successfully escape from here."

"So, where are the dangerous places for these creatures?" Ronald continued to ask.

Nicole also continued to explain the abilities of these creatures:

"To sum it up in general."

"Although these guys are not very resistant to spells, there are so many of them that they are difficult to handle. And with the ability to move in groups, the shells of these creatures are hard enough, and even the claws on their claws are There are also toxins that are lethal."

"Once they are forced close by their physical strength or quantity, and then attacked by them, the injured person will soon completely lose the ability to move due to the toxin."

"..."

"I probably understand."

After getting detailed information from Nicole, Ronald made a decision quickly.

Neither he nor the girl beside him came to this underground world to open up human territory, so Ronald naturally did not intend to destroy the ecological environment here or eliminate all certain dangerous creatures.

And let’s take a step back.

After understanding the way these creatures explore their environment, Ronald already has the means to avoid them completely.

If he could avoid fighting, he would be quite happy.

"From the perspective of the relationship between the entire earth and the sky, our understanding will begin to form..."

Ronald softly recited the incantation of the Almagest.

Then, amid Nicole's somewhat surprised shouts, the two bodies rose from the ground, then drew a regular arc in the air, and continued to move deeper into the cave.

The creatures beneath them are also quite interesting.

Generally speaking, most creatures that move underground are very sensitive to vibrations and sounds, but these ants and scorpions are not sensitive to sounds.

Ronald just took Nicole to a certain height and completely avoided the detection of these creatures. These weird-bodied creatures didn't even react to them at all.

Only in this special environment can this unique life be born.

Think so.

Ronald moved forward and continued to fly in the direction that the investigators were exploring.

Flying in the air, Ronald also saw the general outline of the entire cave from a higher position.

There are actually not only two ways to enter this cave.

Around the entire cave, there are six tunnels that can lead to other locations, and the two extra ones have been actively blocked by this creature using the soil in the environment.

At the same time, away from the two blocked tunnels, these ants and scorpions were still digging earth and rocks independently to expand their original caves.

Seeing this scene, Ronald immediately had a guess in his mind.

The places that the two blocked caves lead to are probably inhabited by groups of creatures that these ants and scorpions cannot deal with, so they take the initiative to block the roads. And the location where they are opening their roads now should be the area of ​​species that they can suppress and erode.

Even the poisonous ones.

It was also for the convenience of digging the soil that a relatively deformed appearance was created.

This new biological system.

It’s really an interesting thing that many people can get addicted to.

"..."

Unfortunately, Ronald's appreciation of this ecosystem couldn't last long. He is not here to do research work, there are more urgent goals to deal with.

Take Nicole through the air through this cave.

They quickly found the place where the investigators entered in the air, and then plunged in again.

A creature that should be able to cause great trouble to those who pass through this place.

Just skip it when the flying spell is so simple and easy to deal with.

Experience this convenience.

Nicole couldn't even help but sigh to Ronald:

"Ronald, it's really a foul to be able to fly!"

"If we had people here who could fly, maybe the damage wouldn't be so serious."

Ronald also responded with an emotional expression:

"This is the magic flight I obtained after defeating the enemy in Springs. It is indeed a very rare and useful ability!"

Ronald's emotion came from the heart.

Although many of the enemies encountered during this period had the ability to fly, the ability to fly was indeed rare among the wider population.

As far as the people around Ronald are concerned.

Even Costart actually doesn't have the ability to fly.

The reason why the maid is able to move in the air recently comes from a strange lunar-shaped spell that changes according to the month. It can only help her control the airflow and fly at specific times of the year.

Just like when taking Ronald back to Kurpis.

Because the month was wrong, Costat did not have this ability, so during the first part of the return journey, the two of them could only rush back to their hometown in the carriage.

The top combat power of this mysterious side can only fly at a specific time.

It is enough to show the rarity of this ability.
