Chapter 558: Deep into the snake's lair

  Chapter 558 Deep into the Snake Cave

   "Are you afraid of snakes?"

  Early the next morning, Duanmuhuai brought Lorena and Mary over and asked them this question.

   "Uh...don't like it."

"me too."

   Obviously neither of them like snakes, the problem is...

"Afraid?"

   "It's not scary."

  Lorena answered quickly, which is also normal. After all, she often goes out on a tour, and must have encountered snakes quite a few times, and I'm afraid she's used to it.

   "I... don't know, I've never met a snake, I just know that snakes are poisonous, dangerous animals..."

   It’s true, Mary doesn’t look like the kind of lady who would just run around.

   "This time our goal is like this..."

  While talking, Duanmuhuai explained the situation about the snake people to the two of them. When they learned that such a race with a long history was entrenched below the town, both of them couldn't help being surprised.

   "Snake people... are we going to confront such a race?"

   "That's right, to wipe it out completely, this is our purpose."

   "But there are only three of us."

   "You can rest assured about this."

  Facing Mary's curious inquiry, Duanmuhuai showed a meaningful smile.

   "We're not just three of us."

   "...???"

After breakfast, Duanmu Huai took Lorena and Mary to the previous mansion of Vince Scott - this old mansion is still in the state of being demolished, and the nearby cordon is still in place. It exists, but from the point of not being able to see the police, it is obvious that this is no longer the focus of the police's investigation.

   Duan Muhuai crossed the cordon and came to the underground passage that Vince Scott said, and at the end of the underground passage, it was indeed blocked by collapsed rubble. At least from here, it is impossible to pass through.

   "Wow... I didn't expect it to collapse, can this really be dug out?"

  Looking at the tightly blocked passage in front of her, Mary couldn't help feeling distressed, while Duanmuhuai shrugged her shoulders.

   "Look, it's very simple."

  While speaking, Duanmu Huai raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

  The next moment, dozens of puppets suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then they started to act like this.

   "Hey? Hey? What's this??"

   Seeing the puppet that suddenly appeared, Mary was taken aback. Lorena——had seen a lot of it, so she didn't take it seriously.

   "Magic, haven't you also learned it?"

   "Of course I know...but..."

   Speaking of this, Mary looked at Duanmu Huai in disbelief.

   "Mr. Duanmu, you actually know magic?"

   "What? Isn't it like?"

  “………”

  Mary carefully looked at the bald man in front of her, who was so muscular and so tense that his shirt was about to be torn, with a ferocious look...

  Frankly speaking, it doesn't look like it.

   "I thought all magicians were like Miss Lani..."

  In contrast, Lani fits the image of a magician in Mary's imagination. Wearing a hat like a witch, wearing a cloak, holding a staff, and always sitting on a chair, she looks very intelligent.

   "In this day and age, how can a magician not know how to fight in close quarters? Didn't you also learn close combat?"

   "Uh...that's right..."

In fact, most of what Mary learned from Lani was the melee combat mode. For example, magic such as Kalia Swift Sword or Kalia Great Sword, basically just use magic power to condense the blade, and then rely on own melee skills. It's just that because Kalia's magic itself is very gorgeous, Mary ignored it.

   "Could it be that all magicians are like this?"

   "Of course, let me tell you, the so-called archmage just learns the flash technique, then fills up the whirlwind, and then rushes in to chop. Isn't that the same for you?"

  “…………”

  Although that is what she said, Mary felt speechless after hearing what Duanmuhuai said.

   "And isn't Lorena the same? Don't think she is a priest, she is very fierce when fighting."

   "Uh... that's true."

It's not that Mary hasn't seen Lorena's battles before, and she's also seen the gorgeous priestly clothes that Lorena wore in battle a few times. It gives people a feeling like praying and singing in an altar or church.

However, such a gentle girl who always smiles on weekdays can be called fierce when fighting. Mary has seen her hold the huge sacred book in her hand more than once, directly smashing the monster's brains... ...To be honest, Mary doesn't think this is something that ordinary priests or priests do. Most of the priests or priests in her impression are praying in churches, or enlightening believers, and boosting morale behind everyone. It feels like... huh?

   Could it be that there is a problem with my common sense? ?

   Just when Mary began to wonder if there was something wrong with her common sense, the dolls had already cleared the blocked passage again.

   "Okay, let's go in."

  The reason for choosing this path again is because according to Bell Girl’s investigation report, there is only one road under the Snakeman Empire, and one is the passage to the surface that they have been using before. The other one is here. Because it is closed, this road is actually closer to the back of the underground snakeman's lair.

   That is to say, this place is not full of snake guards like the commonly used roads, which is more suitable for sneak attacks. Although it is said that when Vince Scott and the others came down, they must have stunned the snake once, but considering that Vince Scott blew up this place again, I am afraid that even the snake man would not think that anyone would pass by this kind of place again. Bar.

   But that's the way it should be.

  Passing through the collapsed passage, the group quickly found what Vince Scott said was the passage leading to the ground. They moved forward all the way, and then came to a large hollow below.

   "Wow..."

  Looking at the scene in front of her, Mary couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise, and made a sound of emotion.

When Vince Scott told the story before, maybe it was because he was too nervous, or because he didn't want to recall, so he didn't describe the scene here in detail, but for Mary, seeing this underground cave, her first reaction was ...

"so beautiful……"

  That’s right, as Mary said, the current underground cave is not just an underground cave. The walls here are smooth and neat, and there are tall stone pillars on both sides. There are complex and gorgeous carvings on the walls and stone pillars. On the other walls and ground, the moss scattered all around exudes a bluish-white radiance, and it really looks like a refreshing beauty.

   "It looks like an underground ruin. If it is discovered, it will definitely be excavated and studied."

  As a student of the Department of History, Mary certainly understands how big a sensation such a relic would be if discovered.

   "It depends on the situation. If everything goes well, it's not impossible to stay."

  This is the civilization of the Snakeman Empire, and there are naturally records about the snake **** in it. If Duanmuhuai can successfully kill the snake god, then it is not impossible to keep the records here as the results of archaeological excavations. But on the other hand, if that snake **** cunningly escapes from Duanmu Huai, then Duanmu Huai will completely destroy this place.

   "Okay, now is not the time to look at the scenery here."

  Duanmuhuai lowered his voice, he has already noticed that there are several dark shadows wandering in the dark places where the light cannot shine. Although I don't know what it is, it is obvious that if you don't speed up, you will be discovered by the snake man.

"let's go!"

  Duanmuhuai's tactics are very simple, that is, a little breakthrough, directly inserted into the center, and the puppet army will follow closely behind, responsible for entanglement and destroying the monsters that find the traces of Duanmuhuai and others. After all, for Duanmuhuai, as long as he has enough soul cards, he is an army by himself, so he doesn't have to worry about this problem at all.

According to Ling Nu's survey results, the white-haired apes and ghosts are the most numerous here, and the snake-men are the least. He curled up in a coffin and slept soundly.

  Only a few snake people are responsible for guarding the lair, and there should be a leader among them—but Bell Girl didn't go in, because she felt the danger, so she retreated decisively.

This can't be helped, after all, in this world, Bell girl is just a poor kitten, not a ninja who is elusive, otherwise there is no need for Duanmuhuai to come down, maybe one night, the whole snake man in the lair will be killed by Bell The goddess was killed without anyone noticing.

  Now, what Duanmuhuai has to do is to reach the place where the bell girl indicated that there is danger, and then kill the threat inside.

Although there is lighting from underground moss, the entire cave is still quite dark, but of course this is not a problem for Duanmuhuai and others. A blue magic ball of light floated above their heads, illuminating the road in front of them—this is exactly what Mary said. One of the magics learned from Lani, Starlight.

To be honest, Mary didn’t learn much magic from Lani, but each of them is the essence. Starlight is responsible for lighting, Calm is responsible for stabilizing the mind, Magic Bright Sword is used for long-range attacks, Kalia Swift Sword and Great Sword are for Responsible for close combat, it can be said that Lani is an excellent magician. Although Mary has limited magic power and has not learned many magics, these few magics alone are enough to solve most of the difficulties she encounters.

  From this point of view, Lani still values ​​Mary very much.

   "This way."

There was a passage ahead, but Duanmu Huai chose the side road. Of course, if it was normal, he would have walked straight there, but Ling Nu told him that there was a trap there—well, at this time, Duan Mu Huai was very happy to have Ling Nu Although he is not afraid of most of the traps, they are quite mortal.

   "But Mr. Duanmu, there is no way ahead!"

  Turning the corner and continuing forward, there is an abyss that looks like a cliff.

   "It's okay, get ready!"

  While speaking, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hands, grabbed Lorena and Mary one by one, and then jumped down!

   "Huh——!"

   This sudden scene also surprised Mary. She closed her eyes subconsciously, only feeling the wind flash past her ears, and the next moment, accompanied by a strong impact, Duanmuhuai fell heavily to the ground. Then Lorena and Mary were put down.

   "Hoo......"

  Lorena got used to it long ago, and even stretched herself after she got down, but Mary sat down on the ground directly, her face turning pale.

   "Duan, Mr. Duanmu, this is too dangerous! I thought I would fall to my death!"

   After all, among the magic that Lani taught Mary, there was no flying magic.

   "It's okay, you will get used to it after a few more times."

   While talking, Duanmu Huai looked forward.

   "But now, let's get ready to fight."

   "Hiss——!"

  Accompanied by Duanmuhuai's words, Mary also heard voices coming from the darkness ahead, she also subconsciously clenched her staff tightly, then stood up and stared ahead.

   Then, under the radiance of magic, a pitch-black monster emerged from the shadows.
