Chapter 559 Going deep into the snake cave


    "Are you afraid of snakes?"


    The next morning, Duanmuhuai asked Lorena and Marie over and asked them this question.


    “Uh…I don’t like it.”


    “Same for me.”


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


    "Are you afraid?"


    “I’m not afraid.”


    Lorena answered very quickly, which is normal. After all, she often goes out to parade everywhere and must have encountered snakes many times, and I''m afraid she''s used to it.


    "I... don''t know, I''ve never encountered a snake. I only know that snakes are poisonous and dangerous animals..."


    As was said, Mary didn''t look like a lady who would run around casually.


    "This time our goal is this..."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai explained the situation about the snake man to the two. When they learned that such a long-standing race was entrenched below the town, they were shocked.


    "Snake Man... Are we going to show up against such a race?"


    "Yes, completely annihilate it, that''s our purpose."


    "But there are only three of us."


    "You can rest assured about this."


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


    “We are not just three people.”


    “……???”


    After breakfast, Duanmuhuai brought Lorena and Mary to the previous residence of Vincecott - this ancient house still remains demolished at the moment, and the nearby cordons still exist, but from the point of not seeing the police, it is obvious that this is no longer the focus of investigation by the police.


    Duanmuhuai crossed the cordon and came to the underground passage that Vincecott called, and at the end of the underground passage, it was indeed blocked by collapsed gravel. 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 him, Mary couldn''t help but feel distressed, while Duanmu Huai shrugged.


    "Look, it''s very simple."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai raised his hand and snapped his fingers.


    The next moment, dozens of dolls suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then they began to act.


    "Hey? Hey? What is this??"


    Looking at the doll that suddenly appeared, Mary was shocked, and Lorena - she had seen too much and didn''t care.


    "Didn''t you learn magic too?"


    "Of course I know...but..."


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


    "Mr. Duanmu, you actually know magic?"


    "What? Don''t you look like?"


    “…………”


    Mary looked at the bald man in front of her with a strong body, tight muscles, and even her shirt was about torn apart, with a fierce eyebrows...


    To be honest, it really doesn''t look like it.


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


    In contrast, Rani is very consistent with Mary''s image as a magician. Wearing a witch-like hat, a cloak, and a staff in his hand, he always sits on a chair, and looks very wise.


    "How can magicians not be able to fight in close combat in this era? Haven''t you also learned close combat?"


    “Uh…this is right…”


    In fact, most of the things Mary learned from Rani were in close combat modes. For example, magic like the Kariya Sword or the Kariya Great Sword, basically just use magic to condense a blade, and then rely on her own melee skills. But because Caglia''s magic itself is gorgeous, Mary ignores this matter.


    "Can all magicians be like this?"


    "Of course, let me tell you that the so-called great wizard is to learn a flash technique, then cut the whirlwind full, and then rush in and cut - aren''t you the same?"


    “………………”


    Although that''s what he said, when Duanmu Huai said this, Mary felt speechless when she heard it.


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


    "Uh...this is true."


    Mary has not seen Lorena’s battle, and she has also seen the gorgeous priest uniform worn by Lorena during the battle several times. The white clothes are inlaid with gold edges and the sacred patterns really give people the feeling of praying and singing in the altar or church. However, it is such a gentle girl who always smiles on weekdays. She is so fierce when fighting. More than once Mary saw the scene where she held the huge book of holy books in her hand and smashed the monster''s brain to pieces... To be honest, Mary doesn''t think it''s like something that ordinary priests or pastors do. Most of the priests or pastors in her impression are praying in the church, or enlightening believers, and boosting morale behind everyone... Hum?


    Is it actually a problem with my common sense? ?


    Just as Mary began to wonder if something was wrong with her common sense, the dolls had cleared out the originally blocked passage again.


    "Okay, let''s go in."


    The reason for re-choosing this path is because according to the investigation report of Ling Nu, there is only one road below the Snake Man Empire, one that they have been using before, leading to the surface. Another thing is here. Because it is closed, this road is actually closer to the back of the underground snake man''s nest.


    In other words, this place is not covered with snake guards like commonly used roads, which is more suitable for sneak attacks. Although Vincecott and the others must have been alerted once when they came down, considering that Vincecott had blown up the place again, even the snake man would not think that anyone would pass by such a place again.


    But that''s the best way.


    After passing through the collapsed passage, the group quickly found what Vincecott said to be the passage to the underground. They walked forward all the way and then arrived at a large hole below.


    “Wow……”


    Looking at the scene in front of him, Mary couldn''t help but widen her eyes in surprise and sighed.


    When Vince Cottle was telling her before, she might have been too nervous or because she didn''t want to recall, so she did not describe the scene here in detail, but for Mary, when she saw this underground cave, her first reaction was...


    “So beautiful…”


    That''s right, as Mary said, the underground caves are not just as simple as underground caves. The walls here are smooth and neat, and there are tall stone pillars on both sides, with complex and gorgeous carvings on the walls and stone pillars. In addition to this, the moss scattered around the walls and ground exudes a blue-white glow, which does look like a relaxed and pleasant scenery.


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


    As a student in the Department of History, Mary certainly understood how much sensation it would bring once such a ruin was discovered.


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


    This is the civilization of the Snake Man Empire, and there are naturally records about the Snake God. If Duanmu Huai can successfully kill the Snake God, then the records here cannot be left as the excavation results of archaeology. But on the other hand, if the snake **** cunningly escaped from Duanmuhuai, Duanmuhuai would completely destroy the place.


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


    Duanmu Huai lowered his voice. He had already noticed that in the dark places where light could not be shining, several black shadows were wandering in it. Although I don’t know what it is, it is obvious that if I don’t speed up, I will be discovered by the snake man.


    "Let''s go!"


    The tactic adopted by Duanmuhuai is very simple, which is to make a breakthrough and directly insert it into the center, while the doll army will follow closely behind, responsible for entangling the monsters who discovered the traces of Duanmuhuai and others and destroying them. After all, for Duanmu Huai, as long as he has enough soul cards, he is an army alone, and he doesn''t have to worry about this problem at all.


    According to the investigation results of Ling Nu, the number of white-haired apes and demons below is the smallest, and the number of snakes is the smallest. This is understandable. Even the metal ribs are made to make their creatures guard the tomb, and they huddled in the coffin to sleep.


    There were only a few snake people responsible for guarding the nest, and there should be a leader among them - but the bell girl did not go in because she felt the danger, so she retreated decisively.


    There is nothing to do about this. After all, in this world, Lingnu is just a poor little cat, not an elusive female **** person. Otherwise, Duanmu Huai didn''t need to come down at all. Maybe one night passed, and the snake people in the entire nest were killed by Lingnu unconsciously.


    What Duanmu Huai has to do now is to get to the place where the bell girl shows that there is danger, and then kill the threat inside.


    Although there is underground moss lighting, the entire cave is still quite dim. But of course, this is not difficult for Duanmuhuai and others. A blue magic ball of light appeared above their heads, illuminating the road in front of them - this is one of the magic Mary learned from Rani, the starlight.


    To be honest, Mary didn''t learn much magic from Rani, but each of them was the essence. Starlight was responsible for lighting, calmness could be responsible for stabilizing the spirit, the magical radiant sword was used for long-range attacks, and the Calias Sword and the Great Sword were responsible for close combat. It can be said that Rani was not a loss to be an excellent magician. Although Mary learned not much magic because of her limited magic power, these magic alone was enough to deal with the difficulties she encountered most of the time.


    From this point of view, Rani still values ??Mary very much.


    “Go here.”


    There was a passage in front of him, but Duanmu Huai chose the fork next to him. Of course, if it was normal, he walked over directly, but the bell girl told him that there was a trap there - well, at this time Duanmu Huai was very happy that the bell girl existed. Although he was not afraid of most of the traps, he was quite mortal.


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


    Turn the corner and continue forward, and there is an abyss that looks like a cliff.


    "It''s okay, get ready!"


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai reached out his hand and grabbed Lorena and Mari with one hand, and then jumped down!


    “Huh———!”


    This sudden scene also surprised Mary. She subconsciously closed her eyes and felt the sound of the wind flashing through her ears. Then the next moment, accompanied by a strong impact, Duanmu Huai landed heavily on the ground. Then he put Lorena and Mary down.


    “Huh……”


    Lorena had been used to it for a long time, and even stretched after she got down. Instead, Marie sat directly on the ground, her face turned pale.


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


    After all, there is no flying magic in the magic that Rani taught Mary.


    "It''s okay, I''ll get used to it when I''m doing it a few more times."


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai looked forward.


    "But now, let''s prepare for the battle."


    “Sister——!”


    As Duanmu Huai spoke, Mary also heard the sound coming from the darkness ahead. She subconsciously clasped her staff tightly, then stood up and stared forward.


    Then, under the brilliance of magic, the dark monster appeared from the shadow.
