……

This is when Woody looked up and saw the head opening the stone gate for them for the first time, the data of the monster in front of him subconsciously appeared in his mind. He used to study the special dungeon monsters that appeared here in order to clear the Lost Temple. A long time ago, but still vivid.

After all, spiders that look like a hedgehog are rare.

The jungle spider queen in front of me is about five meters long, three meters wide, and two meters high. At first glance, it looks like a dark green ball. The carapace is densely covered with elbow-high matte-colored spikes, giving people a feeling of chills on the back before getting close.

"Rush forward, don't stay where you are."

Woody knew that it would be fatal to face this kind of monster in a narrow place, so he shouted to the people around him without hesitation, and when he spoke, his figure was already cutting towards the spider silk in front of him , as a qualified team dungeon raider, he naturally has to take on the heavy responsibility of buying time for his teammates in unexpected situations. After all, they are not very familiar with this monster, so at least let them get used to it for a while. There will be problems, and he is not easy to rescue.

It is extremely difficult to snatch food from this spider queen's hand, after all, the spider silk it spits out comes from its special specialty "Vajra Weaving Web".

As the name suggests, a diamond-like spider web is as tough as a diamond. It is no easier than cutting a boulder. If it is bound, it will be judged by at least 20 points of strength. If it cannot break free, it will enter a bound state.

But what Woody didn't expect was that in the next second, facing the fierce attack he swung his sword, before he touched it, the spider thread in front of him suddenly loosened like silk, causing him to stagger suddenly , the body slashed on a bush behind the spider silk with inertia, splitting the densely packed bush into two, revealing the tender green buds lifted by the sword wind.

"what's the situation!"

Woody first rolled forward to avoid the possible surprise attack, and then looked vigilantly at the position where the jungle spider queen was just now. However, what he didn't expect was that the spider queen who had been staring at them just now Already following the cobwebs woven on the ceiling, they climbed towards a higher position in the center, as if they hadn't seen them just now.

"It left...."

"Aren't you attacking us?"

Cecil looked at the departing dark green back with a look of surprise, and the others also looked at the top of their heads in disbelief. After all, this was the first time they encountered such a non-attacking creature, and only Ruiya was thoughtful. , I don't know if it was an illusion, but she felt the breath of Feathered Serpent God on this huge spider.

She didn't hide it either, and soon told everyone about her discovery. Woody then looked at the "Feathered Serpent God's Preference" in his status bar thoughtfully. Indeed, no one had obtained this buff in the previous life. If it was really because of this, then it was reasonable for the hatched spider queen not to attack them due to the influence of divine power.

"Is this also a way to clear the customs?"

Realizing that Feathered Serpent God's preference can save him from worrying about the giant spiders in the abandoned lounge, Woody felt a little disappointed in his heart. He always felt that none of the techniques of parkour and monsters he learned at the beginning were useless. It ended like this, with a feeling of incompleteness.

Of course, he also understands that this news is the best news for him in the current situation, because it means that he does not need to fight, enters the basement, and only needs to face the swarm of bone snakes in the place of sinking and the botanical garden All kinds of flora can be used, which shortens the time by at least one-third and greatly improves the error tolerance rate.

"Riya! Do you remember the way to the basement?"

In the copy of the Lost Temple, the entrances through the basement are randomly distributed somewhere in the abandoned lounge area, but there is no random statement now, so he directly asks the locals, which saves the most time.

"Remember, remember, just at..."

Ruiya nodded quickly, but found that she seemed to be really confused. The jungle-like lounge in front of her, and she hadn't been there for decades, directly restricted her to the location of the basement. be thrown off balance.

"Under the hut is still a concave rock wall, or in a well."

Woody looked at Ruiya's faltering, knowing that she might not know, so he directly threw out three locations. These are the locations where the basement entrances are often refreshed. As long as Ruiya is sure, he will know how to use the most The fastest way to get there, after all, if you want to go this way to the "Sanctuary", if the parkour difficulty index is five stars, there are at least four here.

"The entrance is behind a large gate. The last time I went there, I only remembered that it was very shady... By the way, find the lounge hall, and then walk along the end of the corridor!"

Ruiya tried her best to repeat what she knew, but she looked at the rest room occupied by weeds and bushes, and there was a little shadow of the hall, even the corridors were hidden under the cover of trees.

"I know! Come with me!"

Hearing Ruiya's answer, Woody thought for a while, and then he knew where the entrance to the basement was, so he didn't stay in place too much, and led everyone directly to the southwest direction of the entrance.

After advancing for less than three hundred meters, the walls and stone gates behind them, together with the dense spider webs above their heads, disappeared among the layers of green leaves. They seemed to have returned to the dense forest, but there was no such thing as the unique comfort and freshness of the jungle. Instead, there was a dull smell of decayed and moldy trees.

Cecil seemed to have stepped on something, and suddenly stopped, lowering his head and saying in doubt.

"Is this... a door?"

The others followed and found that it was indeed a huge door lying flat on the ground. Different from the previous rough stone door, although this door was severely corroded, the well-preserved corners and reliefs on the door came from the door. Look, the workmanship is very good, and the logo of the Feathered Serpent is branded on it.

"The side door of the lounge hall, we should be in the hall now."

Ruiya's eyes lit up when she saw this door, and she looked around quickly, but what made her discouraged was that no matter how she identified it, she still couldn't find half the same shadow as in her memory, only a large number of branches disturbed her Under the cover of heavy leaves, the atmosphere is even more depressing, even a little weird.

At this moment, I just remembered the rustling sound, which was the creaking sound of some kind of reptile stepping on the fallen leaves.

Everyone tensed slightly when they heard about it, even though they knew that the giant jungle spider living here would not harm them, they still couldn't restrain their reverie.

However, when they saw the black-haired young man standing at the forefront of the team, still traveling as the leader, still conscientiously holding the slender curved sword, cutting off the branches blocking the way, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They also calmed down a lot. After all, Woody didn't panic, so why should they make such a fuss.

"It's almost here, don't worry."

Woody also saw a little tiredness in everyone's eyes. After all, from entering the Jingsong Forest to leaving this plane, and then to the Lost Temple, these people, except for Ruiya, have basically never had a good rest, and their spirits are highly tense status, so he patiently relieved.

With Woody's words, everyone was relieved a lot. Time passed by like this, and the group's journey soon arrived at the destination of this trip, the entrance of the basement.

After clearing along the way, a road for people to walk was finally built.

Woody stretched his slightly tired waist, and looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction, while Ruiya looked at everything that was plausible in the picture, with a little familiarity in his eyes.

As for Cecil, Kaverman, the Spirit of Nature and others, they have already begun to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the entrance in front of them. Woody has already emphasized that what he will face this time is undead creatures and plants with fantasy. Infestation, so they are all preparing their own.

Although none of them asked Woody why he was going to the basement, they supported him without hesitation in action. Of course, they also knew in their hearts that without Woody's guidance, it would be difficult for them to come to this place. As for Kaverman , let alone seeing his wife for the last time.

However, as a mage's curiosity, Cecil secretly found Woody before entering, and curiously asked what he wanted in the basement?It was worth all his troubles.

Regarding this question, Woody came up with the rhetoric that it might not change in 1 years.

"My goal, from the beginning to the end, is to reach the Sanctuary with you."

Although Cecil was a little puzzled, she knew that if she went on like this, she would definitely be able to answer the doubts in her heart, so she didn't say anything more.

When the thick door growing on the rocky wall of the cave made of gray and white granite was breathing the revived air heartily, Woody pushed open the dusty door. The wooden door was as beautiful as the one seen on the ground before, but There are many vine-like plants growing on it, firmly adsorbed on it, and then connected to the mountain wall, so that Woody failed to push the door for the first time, so he had no choice but to trim it with a curved sword first. Successfully opened the door.

After the door was opened, what was revealed was a dark staircase slanting downwards. Compared with the dullness of the jungle, the coldness on the face was quite refreshing, but as the group of people gradually went down, the coldness increased and made people One can't help but miss the sweltering heat on the ground, but after walking here, there is naturally no reason to turn back, not to mention that for Cecil, this atmosphere is just a matter of adding a protective energy barrier to everyone.

Sure enough, when the spell enveloped everyone, the original coldness suddenly seemed to be surrounded by a burning fireplace, warming them up.

"It's almost here, remember what I told you later."

While carefully avoiding the stalactites protruding from the top of the cave, Woody whispered to the people following him.

On the way down, he had already taught them some skills on how to deal with the Skeleton Snakes, including being careful of the spikes on their tails and the snake heads that might fly out at any time. Many players in the previous life suffered from this.

On the contrary, Cecil sighed, and seemed a little sullen. Just now, she suggested whether she could release a reduced version of the "Sun Flame Explosion" to destroy the group of undead creatures, but Woody rejected it. Although she repeatedly emphasized that the spell would not destroy the basement, it would They were buried alive in the ground, but seeing Woody's suspicious eyes, Cecil suddenly felt a little guilty.

After all, that small Yangyan burst is a spell she has just mastered, which seems to be a bit of a safety hazard, but how does he know...

Woody withdrew his eyes, lowered his head, walked around a huge stone pillar that almost touched the ground, and continued down the stairs. Of course, he would not tell Cecil that when he was active in the Northland in his last life, there were countless players in the Northland The first time I complained about the spell that Cecil wanted to release, it wasn't that the damage wasn't what I wanted, but that it was easy to take away the spellcaster, and it was the kind of spellcaster who was one step ahead of the monster.

……

The stairs are in a spiral shape. After Woody and others went down hundreds of stairs, the originally steep terrain gradually leveled off. It was not until they reached the uneven ground with accumulated water that they finally settled down. In front of him was a long corridor about five meters high.

The corridor is straight and spacious, almost able to accommodate three carriages in parallel. This place is different from the roughness when descending the stairs. Both the ground and the walls are obviously carefully polished. There are many reliefs on the walls, but the protagonist on it is no longer Yu Yu. The snake god, but its people, the scenes of many feathered snakes confronting various monsters in the Golden River Valley, including humans, beasts, and even sub-dragons...

Ruiya is so familiar, she pointed to the murals and began to explain the once outstanding Feathered Serpent King.

"This is the "Thunder Dragon" Lord Kazan, who was born with thunder. At that time, the Feathered Serpent Tribe basically had no foreign enemies, and the invaders were all defeated by Lord Kazan with magic."

"And this is "Golden Lightning" Barto-sama. In a flash flood, it used the largest body in the history of Feathered Serpent God to block the torrent, buying time for hundreds of residents."

……

These pictures are all clearly displayed in the eyes of everyone under the background of the shining natural spar above their heads, and at the end of the corridor, there is a huge pit with a width of about [-] meters, which means that they have reached the end of their trip Last stop before.

——"The place of sinking."

Before they got close, they could hear a tooth-piercing creaking sound, which was the unique sound made by bones rubbing against each other. When they got closer to about a hundred meters, these creatures living in the bottomless giant pit had already discovered them.

Woody, who had been prepared for a long time, had already held the curved sword with the blessing of the magic weapon on it. With the support of someone, the large number of bone snakes was just the experience value of walking for him.

But what he never expected was that Donnie, the tabby cat who had been in hiding this trip, jumped out at this moment and meowed a few times in front of him with a look of surprise. At the same time, both he and Cecil received Donnie's Messages from the heart.

"I smell the same kind of breath!"

"The smell of a dragon!"
