Mage Joan

"Arnold, Angel, and Ryan, I plan to cross the "navel" to explore the unknown zone in the dark area. This is indeed very risky, but the return is also greater. Is anyone willing to follow us? Peer?"

Lowry looked around the crowd and saw no one responding to his invitation. It was not surprising that he turned back to Arnold, Angle and Ryan, and said softly: "It's not too late, let's go on the road."

Arnold rolled over to ride the lizard, gathered the reins, and after a little hesitation, turned back to look at Audrey in the crowd.

"Miss Zion, are you going to take the rest to the transfer station?"

"No one here needs me to "lead", and each of us has the right to decide our own itinerary."

Audrey smiled faintly.

"As for me, I am more willing to move on."

"Since you don't plan to look back now, just walk with us, I'll take care of protecting you." Arnold's eyes were burning and expectant.

"Thank you for your care, Mr. Laval, but it seems to me that instead of accepting the protection of others, the sword in my hand is more reliable, and there are three trusted teammates around me, so you don’t bother."

Audrey's refusal was firm and polite.

Arnold's face stiffened slightly, but he refused to give up.

"Your teammates can also walk with us."

"Sorry, we plan to go the other way."

"This is not a smart decision! Miss Zion, you lack the experience of taking risks in the underground world. It will be safer and more rewarding to walk with us. Why not ask for bitterness for your face!"

Arnold suspected that Audrey was deliberately hiding from herself, and she couldn't help but express her anger.

"Are you saying "Ask yourself for bitterness"? This is not always possible."

Audrey's lips still had an elegant and moving smile, but her eyes became cold and sharp.

"Our captain, Hailar, has enough exploration experience, and our team also has a mage who is good at surveying the terrain."

Audrey glanced at Joan, her eyes full of trust.

"He will lead us to choose a passage to the deep area, and the final gain is not necessarily less than your team."

"Just the little mage who took the adventure for the first time?" Arnold smiled disapprovingly. "Miss Zion, if you are really confident in your team, would you dare to bet me?"

"How to gamble?"

"It depends on who can earn more internship points during this expedition, how?"

"What about the bet?"

"If I win, I hope to be honored to have dinner with you. If you win, what are the conditions, even if you open it."

Arnold crossed his arms across his chest, looking confident.

Joan's heartstrings could not help tightening.

Listening to Arnold's meaning, it seems that he wants to win Audrey's recognition through this gamble and accept his pursuit, which is not surprising.

So what kind of bet will Audrey make?

Common sense, would Arnold be asked not to entangle her again after losing?

In fact, Joan is even more strange about his mentality than the two bet.

He often encounters such things that have nothing to do with him. He is too lazy to ignore it. Why is he inexplicably nervous today, and is struck by his heart for what decision Audrey will make?

Joanne couldn't tell why he had such a weird mentality, but one thing he was very sure.

Even if there is no personal grievance between him and Arnold, deep down he still does not want Audrey to lose to Arnold.

"If I win..." Audrey rolled her sapphire-clear eyes and smiled slightly. "I hope Holden, Joan and Hailar can all receive the invitation letter from the'Skull Society'."

"Of course there is no problem, good luck!"

Arnold shook the reins and drove the lizard away.

"Hello! Audrey, how can you make your own claims! I never said I wanted to join the'Skull Club'!"

Hailar is a little emotional.

Audrey hugged the female swordsman's waist and smiled sweetly, revealing the temptation that Hailar couldn't resist.

"If you really don't like it, just quit after joining. In this way, you will become the first girl in the history of Meadgard University to voluntarily quit the Skeleton Society."

"It makes sense!"

Hailar nodded deeply.

...

Walking in the dim rift valley, you can often see large or small caves.

The surface of these caves are all the same deep and dark, as if they have been leading to the center of the earth. In fact, most caves are just a dead end.

There are also some caves, which seem to be deep and winding, and the people in them think that they have been moving towards the ground. In fact, the profile of this underground tunnel is in the shape of a "U", and the explorer turned a big bend unconsciously. Going back to the surface is like a busy day.

Excluding "dead roads" and "U-shaped tunnels", the only few caves that lead to "dark areas" are the real "ground navels".

Explorers in the Archaic Abyss usually use the topographic maps generated by the 2 rings of "Surveying" to determine whether a cave is really a "ground navel".

However, "surveying" is not always so reliable.

The effectiveness of this spell is closely related to the caster level, the higher the caster level, the greater the range of mapping.

For a 5th-level wizard, a map with a radius of at most 5 miles can be mapped.

If the length of a tunnel exceeds 5 miles, it cannot be displayed on the map completely, and no one knows whether it will hit a dead end if you continue to walk.

In addition, "Surveying" also has a shortcoming, that is, it can only generate a less accurate plan, and can barely see the general outline of the tunnel.

As for whether the tunnel will cross waters or quagmire, can the narrowest zone allow humans to pass?

These details are not visible on the floor plan.

Finding a safe and reliable "ground navel" through a map depends largely on personal experience and constant trial and error.

Of all the participants in this internship, Arnold has the most expedition experience. In contrast, only Hailar in Audrey’s team has expedition experience, but it is far from Arnold.

In this situation, Audrey still accepts the gambling game proposed by Arnold and believes that he has a chance to win. The confidence mainly comes from Joan.

Joan can also perform "surveying and mapping", but he also has a more efficient method of surveying and mapping, which is to use the magic compass from the cloud city-the navigation compass.

According to Joan’s current mage level, even if the “mythical mana” is counted, the use of “surveying and mapping” can only get a rough map within 7 miles at most, but when he opens the “navigation compass”, he can generate within 30 miles at any time. map.

The bigger difference is that the "navigation compass" generates a stereoscopic view that can be zoomed, showing more detailed and vivid details than the two-dimensional plan.
