Mage Joan

Chapter 732: Mysterious cave

With the encouragement of Joan, Gollum dared to go around the burning bonfire in the middle of the valley and observe the war lizard sentry who was sitting around the vigil in front of the fire.

At the same time, Joan also carefully observed the indigenous people of these underground worlds through grunting eyes.

The reason why the war lizard people have the word "lizard" may be because they have a common ancestor with the "lizard man" of the surface world.

Regardless of size or appearance, the War Lizard looks like a thinner lizard.

It resembles a human torso and limbs, indicating that they belong to a "humanoid", with a thick tail and a greasy head, which have the distinctive characteristics of reptiles, a wide mouth covered with two rows of sharp teeth, and sometimes spit out a blue-gray bifurcation The tongue seems to be sniffing something.

There are still some differences in the appearance of War Lizards and Lizardmen.

The lizardmen's skin is mostly dark green, the scales are smooth and clean, and the body emits the breath of swamp water plants.

The skin color of the war lizards is dull gray, with brown or brown spots, which is more conducive to concealing the tracks in the underground world lacking light.

In addition, from the back of the neck to the tip of the tail, the war lizards raised a row of bone spines along the spine, which looked like jagged teeth from afar.

This special physiological structure is a bit like the dorsal fin of a fish, and similar features are rarely seen on lizardmen.

Of course, lizardmen will not secrete suffocating stench like their distant relatives.

The three war lizard sentinels surrounded by the fire were gambling with dice carved from bones, and played very hard.

The bets of the war lizards are contained in a clay pot made of clay.

Whoever wins the next game, grabs the crock and lifts his head to drink the liquid. After drinking, wipe your mouth and yell, as if to admire "addiction".

Joan noticed that the blood of the war lizard's mouth was stained with red blood, and the liquid in the clay pot also glowed dark red under the fire.

Evelyn once said that the war lizard's craze for cave fishing crab plasma is better than the dwarves.

And this savage race, the way of citing crab blood is more wild than the dwarves, no other alcohol or spices are used to mix, directly drink fresh hot crab blood!

According to this, Joan suspected that the pottery jar was filled with the blood of the cave crab.

The drunkards who were gambling really had nothing to look at.

Joan sent out a telepathy, allowing Guru to dive into the war lizard's barracks—that is, the caves dug into the rock walls—and wander around.

Gollum received its instructions, turned his head to the nearest cave, first lie down at the entrance of the cave and listened, then climbed up to the ceiling against the wall, hung upside down in the shadow, and peered down.

The "visual link" has a flaw in the ointment that cannot make Joan borrow grunt's ears.

Joan couldn't directly hear the movements that Guru heard, but could only wait until Guru had heard them before understanding their feelings through telepathy.

This indirectly acquired “second-hand” information is not timely enough and may be distorted by misunderstanding.

For example, just now, Guru heard a hissing scream from the cave, and there was a faint violent collision.

With its intelligence level, it is natural to think that someone is fighting in the cave, and this is also conveyed to Joan.

But when he walked in, the dark cave was covered with an animal skin. Two naked war lizards were entangled and twisted on the animal skin, and hissed gasps.

Emmm...Well, this is indeed a "fight", to be precise, a "fairy fight".

Guru stuck his feet to the dome of the cave, crossed his arms over his chest, hung upside down, and looked at the pair of men and women who were passionate and intimate.

Through telepathy, Joan learns that Guru is examining this erotica from the perspective of an experienced hunter.

Guru is convinced that in this state, it can easily strangle the two fierce fighting lizards.

Joan has no objection to this, after all, no one can remain alert enough during mating.

But he wanted to tell Guru that the purpose of this trip was not an assassination, and it was too unethical to do so.

Grumbling nodded.

The men and women who did not disturb the fire, as they had come, quietly left the cave.

Next, Guru dived into another cave.

The deep of the cave was also covered with an animal skin, which was covered with a fluffy and dry lichen and a thick layer of sand.

In the sand, half a dozen eggs full of watermelons are buried.

The eggshell is off-white with brown spots.

Joan observed and guessed that the cave was the nursery room of the War Lizard tribe.

Those huge eggs, the fertilized eggs laid by the female lizardmen, are concentrated here for hatching, a typical clan tribe fertility culture.

Grunt stared at the pile of eggs, stretched his neck, grunted, and swallowed.

"Master, can I steal an egg to eat?"

Joan sensed Guru's thoughts and decisively rejected them.

This is not because he is too kind, but it has been seen that the distribution of the magic net around the sand where the fertilized eggs are piled is somewhat abnormal.

Recognizing a little bit through Grunt's eyes, Joan saw that a "magic alarm" had been applied to the place where the eggs were hatched.

Once Gollum touched the eggs of the war lizard, an alarm would be triggered immediately and besieged.

Joan told Guru this discovery.

The throat mob was so scared that he immediately withdrew his hand and dared not to beat those eggs again.

Joan thought more than grunting.

Since there is a "magic alarm" in the nursery, this means that there is at least one spellcaster in the war lizard camp.

A barbaric ethnic group like the War Lizard is unlikely to produce a learned wizard, and the caster is more likely to be a warlock or a shaman (druid).

Of course, if this tribe worships evil gods, its religious leader may also be a priest.

In short, the war lizard tribe with the caster in power is definitely not easy to mess with!

Joan told Gulu to be more careful.

In front of an unknown caster, "invisibility" may not be able to guarantee its safety.

Powerful casters have too many ways to see through invisibility.

Guru was a little scared by his admonishment, and hurriedly escaped from the nursery, sneaking towards the cave where the roar came.

Outside the cave door, there are four guards wearing animal skin armor and obsidian spears.

Grunt is not afraid of these majestic guards, but Joan still lets it stop.

At the entrance of the cave, there was a faint magic aura leaking out, which seemed to be a blessing.

This enchantment originated from natural magic.

As an arcane spellcaster, Joan can hardly recognize the specific function of the magical enchantment, but it does not rule out the possibility of restraint and invisibility.

From this point of view, the caster of the Lizardmen tribe is more likely to be a shaman!
