Chapter 378 140: Go

  A few days later, in the northeast of the Dark Forest, a barren land.

  There is an area in the northeastern part of the Dark Forest. The area is not large, probably about ten or twenty miles. It is not worth mentioning in the dark forest that stretches for tens of thousands of miles.

  But the topography of this area is very different from the topography around the dark forest.

  Due to the influence of dense elements, the vegetation of the dark forest grows extremely luxuriantly. It is among the best in the entire old land continent, and the trees are crisscrossed and crossed almost to the point of stitching.

However, after arriving in this wasteland, the landform is bare. Looking at this clearing area, there are only a few withered trees growing out of the forest. It looks out of place in the entire forest, just like a strong man with thick hair. The head was bald for no apparent reason.

   "Huhu! ~ Huhu!~"

  The bleak wind blows from a distance, and the volume is flying around with some fine gravel on the ground.

  Standing on a large rock, Heath looked at this wilderness in the distance for a while, then opened the map and compared it, touching his chin and said, "This is the barren land, right?"

  The name of this wasteland is very aptly called the Barren Land. This is the entrance to the underground world in the dark forest. It is for this reason that this area is so desolate.

  After collecting the map, Heath continued to move forward and walked into this wasteland.

  While walking, he turned his head to observe the surroundings, and at the same time opened the range of the system for extraction, scanning the surroundings, looking for extractable substances.

   "Drop, extraction failed, the substance cannot be extracted."

   "Drop, extraction failed, the substance cannot be extracted."

  However, it is a pity that I have not been able to find any discoveries all the way through the past. In fact, I think about it. If you look at the desolation of this area, you should know it. If you can find something in such a place, it would be weird.

   Touched his chin, Heath pondered: "It looks like it's gone."

   At this moment, suddenly, he felt a familiar energy wave on his right hand, and the ghost ring on his hand had a faint luster.

"Um?"

   Immediately, I saw a cloud of grayish-brown smoke rising from the ring. The smoke rose higher and higher, and quickly condensed into an illusory figure in the air.

  Long hair fluttering, red dress swaying, it is Nina who hasn't seen for a long time.

  The little girl coming out of the ring yawned and stretched lazily: "Yawn!~"

She turned her head and looked around, her eyes widened as she watched. She asked Heath with a weird look: "Hey, Heath, where are we? How did we get to the barren mountain? Ye Ling is here?"

When collecting it on Snake Island, Heath hunted and killed a tailed snake, and refined the heart of the tailed snake into a potion and gave it to Nina to absorb it. It is a powerful potion that restores the power of the soul. After taking the potion, Na fell into a deep sleep, and it was only just now that she finally woke up.

  Heath showed a smile on his face and said hello: "Long time no see, Nina."

Since Nina entered his life, Heath has gradually become accustomed to the floating ghost around him, and used to her chattering all the time. It’s a bit of a feeling that I haven’t seen her for a few months now. kind.

  Nina grinned and said, "How's it going? Do you miss me?"

  Heath nodded: "It's an advantage."

  Nina laughed exaggeratedly: "Yeah, really? Then I'm really touched."

Immediately, her small face collapsed and she raised her chin and said, "Then you are telling me, are you using the wilderness to welcome me? Originally, the soul power was restored well this time, and I was going to go shopping on the street. Go shopping, what are you doing? What exactly is this place?"

  Heath explained: "Bad place."

  Nina thought for a moment: "The barren land? Is it the barren land? The barren land in the dark forest?"

  She stared wide.

  Heath nodded: "Yes."

  Nina was surprised: "Wow, wow, are you here, are you going to go to the underground world?"

  The barren land of the dark forest is one of the entrances to the underground world. This is no secret in the wizarding world. You can find relevant information in most wizards' documents, and Nina certainly knows it.

  Heath said: "Yes, I promised to give Nami a pair of legs. I need some magic materials. Only the underground world can provide me."

   Nina said: "It turns out to be like this."

   After a pause, she changed her previous dissatisfaction and raised her fist excitedly and said: "What are you waiting for? Let's go? Let's set off! To the underground world, set off, set off, set off!"

  In her yelling and yelling, Heath set out on the journey again.

   "Hey, Heath, what have you been doing while I was asleep? Have you done anything bad?"

   "Huh? Just stay at the lighthouse every day to do experiments? You are really boring."

Probably because of the long dormant time, Nina looked particularly vigorous when she woke up. She pulled Heath to talk about various issues along the way, and asked Heath what she has done recently. After a while, I discussed the underground world with him again, as if talking about it.

Heath must be too lazy to take care of her, but after traveling alone for so long, there is no one talking on the road, and Heath is still full of loneliness. At this time, Nina is chatting next to them. The conversation was enthusiastic, and the loneliness brought about by the original journey was relieved a lot.

  In such a pleasant atmosphere, the two quickly passed through a small wasteland, and came to the end of the wasteland.

At the end of this wasteland is a hill. The area of ​​the hill is not large, about a dozen square meters, and the height is about three to five meters. It stands alone on the desolate land, just like the ground. A bag was raised, which looked particularly conspicuous.

  And in this small mountain bag, there is still a big cave in the middle. Inside it is dark and there is no light source. Only a ramp that seems to be downward can be vaguely seen.

   Just when the two of Heath had just arrived here, suddenly.

   "Shasha."

   A faint rustle sounded, and in conjunction with this sound, some fine gravel began to roll down around the cave.

At first it only rolled off a little, but soon the amount of sand and gravel that fell off grew more and more, as if the entire cave entrance had collapsed in half, and only a sound of "crash" was heard, and even some large stones fell. Come down.

  The fine gravel that fell down faster and faster, and quickly gathered to the ground, and then began to combine and combine. After a while, a giant appeared in front of the two of Heath.

  It was a huge stone man.

   Approximately seven or eight meters high, it resembles Heath’s stone man in appearance. The body joints and even the whole body are made up of pieces of stone.

  After the last stone flew to the stone man, the two eyes of the stone man immediately lit up with a beam of light, as if he had come alive, opened his eyes, and with a rumbling noise, he stood up from the ground.

   Its eyes locked on the two Heaths in front of it for the first time, and the brief introduction said straightforwardly: "Wizard, come here!"

This is the entrance guard, Heath has seen in the book before, there are guards like this at the entrance to the underground world, but some places are stone people, and some places are guarded by wizards, and obviously they are here. What I met was a stone man.

However, unlike ordinary stone men, this is not a dead object made by a wizard with a puppet spell, but a mature individual with a genuine soul. It is said that it is specially made by underground creatures with a very powerful magical spell. The real soul is given to the stone man.

  Heath bends down and salutes, and then solemnly explained: "It's an honor to know your Excellency. I am a medium wizard from the Land of Shadows, Heath Noon."

  After hearing Heath’s self-reporting of his home, the stone man’s expression clearly eased a lot. After all, this is a real middle-level wizard, not ordinary apprentices or wizards who can bully and squeeze casually.

  The wizarding world is, after all, a world where strength is respected.

  The stone man said very politely: "It is also an honor for Baker to be able to meet such a young and outstanding wizard like your Excellency."

   After a pause, it then asked in a completely different tone from the previous one: "If it is convenient, I hope you can tell me the purpose of coming to the gate? We as guards are only in routine work, you don't mind."

  Heath said: "Of course."

   Immediately, he relayed the news he had previously told Nami to the stone man again.

After hearing Heath’s words, the stone man suddenly realized: "So, that was really offensive before that. I hope you don’t mind the wizard. This is not my intention. It is true that some restless wizards also want it recently. Going to the underground world has caused me a lot of trouble here, and it has created a lot of trouble for me."

  Heath said: "I can understand."

  The misunderstanding has been resolved, so of course there is nothing more to say. After a brief greeting, Heath continued to cut into the subject: "In this case, can you let us in now?"

The stone man nodded heavily: "Of course, but the premise is that you must give me the tax. This is the rule set by the wizards. Anything going through the wasteland into the underground world needs to pay a fee like me, two Ten Thousand Magic Stones, you have prepared them, right?"

  Heath said: "Of course."

As he said, he took out two high-grade magic stones and threw them over. These expeditions have given him a huge income. At this moment, the magic stones piled up in the space pocket are already piled as high as a mountain, tens of millions. Heath is nothing, let alone a tax of ten or twenty thousand.

You know, in addition to the magic stone, there are more various materials in his space pocket, which are all treasures obtained through system exploration, and which one is valuable on the market. The existence of Liancheng.

  "Your Excellency, please."

  Following the stone man, Heath walked into the cave in front.

  After entering the cave, Heath soon found that his judgment was correct. The ground in the cave was indeed a downward slope, leading to an unknown darkness in the distance.

"Da da da"

"Da da da"

  The sound of footsteps echoed, Heath followed behind the stone man and walked towards the deepest part of the cave step by step. The surroundings were empty, only the footsteps of Heath and the stone man echoed, and it seemed a bit gloomy.

  After walking all the way for more than ten minutes, finally there is a different scene in the distance.

  It is a huge hall with a width of hundreds of square meters. In the hall is a square, and on one side of the square is an altar.

  This is a very standard and ancient stone altar, with bright lines and magical patterns, which looks not much different from the altars often seen in the wizarding world.

  The special place is in the center of this altar.

  In the center of this altar, there is a stone well standing abruptly, and there are some ancient patterns and reliefs all around the well, which seems to be a bit older.

  The stone man took Heath all the way to the well.

Immediately, the Stone Man opened his mouth and explained to Heath: "According to the regulations, I can't leave the gate for too long. Honorable Master Wizard, then I will send you here. Sit in the basket and it will take you down. After passing through this dry well, you will be able to reach the underground world."

  His Dang even quickly gave a bow: "Okay, thank you for your help."

  Stone Humanity: "You are welcome, this is also my duty."

   said hello, and the stone man left soon.

  And Heath then walked up to the altar and looked around at the well mentioned by the stone man.

  This is a dry well. Looking from the top down, there is no water in the well, but strangely, the sound of water droplets can be heard from the well.

  There is a scaffold just above the well head, and a thick rope is wrapped on the scaffold.

However, at the top of the rope, there is no wooden bucket or other props for fetching water, but a large basket, which is like an enlarged version of the basket made of bamboo sticks that the farmer takes to buy vegetables and stuff. .

  While Heath was looking at it, suddenly, a voice sounded.

   "How long do you want to watch? Do I really have such a good-looking one?"

  Heath was taken aback, looking for a voice, only to find that there were human facial features on the side of the basket, which looked like a young man from the image.

  Heath quickly said: "I'm very sorry, I offended."

  Basket said, "If you are sorry, you don't have to say it. Just don't always stare at me. I'm not used to being stared at."

   After a pause, it went on: "Come on, aren't you going to the underground world? I'll give it to you. Of course, I'm not free. You need three high-level magic stones."

   fainted, didn't the magic stone before that have been given for nothing?

  Heath silently complained
