The Worm Lair is the place where the poor people gather in Seven Furnaces. Although it exists in a part of the Manchester metropolis, it is the most messy and dirty area of the city's buildings. Take the directional subway from the station to the wormhole, and it really only takes a few minutes. Walking out of the wormhole station, dilapidated buildings made of black iron mixed with dark red blood bricks are erected obliquely, constructing a slightly abstract urban scene. There are homeless people everywhere in the streets, most of them in shabby clothes. Lying on the ground begging, there are also many small stalls selling strange things. The dust is mixed with the smell of rotten food and dirt and sweat stains, which is the smell of poverty—such an atmosphere, Zuo Ci is no stranger to it. Didn't he stay in this situation all year round when he was in the original world
Walking in the street market unaffected, Zuo Ci picked up the map collected from the Eagle Point Hotel, and went straight to the Bug's Lair Hotel in the downtown area of the Bug's Lair Fortress. It was also a rusty iron house, as if several black iron boxes of different sizes were randomly stacked and built. Only the signboard hanging on the top was polished and shiny, and it could be seen at a glance when entering the downtown area.
The owner of the Wormhole Hotel is a scrawny middle-aged man who speaks weakly as if he is about to die in minutes. Fortunately, Zuo Ci can answer every question he asks fluently. The event gives enough information—
"If you want to enter the underground cave, you just need to observe carefully. You can find entrances everywhere in this city. For example, there is one next to the back door of our hotel. It's just that the caves in this city are like beehives, and it's easy to get lost. If you really want to go down and explore, I will I just hope your sense of direction is good enough. As for the haunting incident you asked about recently, it is really the most frightening thing in this city recently... Because those ghosts hiding in the dark caves can eat people and drink blood, They hunt every day, not only in the underground, but also in the quiet alleys in the dead of night, so, every day here, some people become the dishes of the ghosts, and every day, some people disappear... "
"Understood." Zuo Ci replied calmly, confirming the last thing, "Are there a lot of these ghosts? There can't be only one or two, right?"
The boss hesitated for a while with folded hands in embarrassment, and replied: "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I don't know the number. However, there are some mutated and dangerous creatures that emerge from the underground caves from time to time. I can guarantee that I will go down to that ghost place." But you will encounter more than one or two opponents. By the way, you don’t want to go down to that ghostly place, do you? If you really want to go down, I suggest you bring Yaohuo... "
"Yaohuo?"
"Yes, it is a kind of flint. It can be ignited by rubbing it against any object. After rubbing it, it can continue to burn for an hour. I sell it here. If you want to go down to the underground cave, this is a must-have item."
Zuo Ci nodded slightly, followed the boss's suggestion, and bought twenty Yaohuo in one go.
Now, he has confirmed that the underground cave is indeed a place for leveling, so he is relieved. Since there is an entrance from the back door of the hotel, it is really convenient enough. In addition, there is also the registration office for the Brave Fighting Competition in the Worm Lair. Everything Zuo Ci wants is here. , spends all time here.
Without further ado, after finishing the information inquiry, Zuo Ci went straight to the back door of the hotel.
It is difficult to find the entrance to the cave. It is the entrance of a sewer on the side of the back door. A rusty iron staircase that can be climbed down.
Zuo Ci didn't think much, just jumped into the well.
-
The depth of the well was obviously deeper than Zuo Ci had imagined, which made him have to pass along the wall twice to borrow strength before he fell to the first floor of the cave without any danger.
During the fall, there was no other light except for the peripheral light from the eaves of the hotel, and when it fell to the ground, it was pitch black.
Sure enough, the innkeeper didn't lie to him, it's really hard to get here without Yaohuo, Zuo Ci immediately took out one from his backpack, and lightly brushed it across the wall on one side, a group of blue-golden flames appeared immediately.
The flame is not scorching, and it is not a problem to hold it in your hand, not to mention that there is a rope attached to the flame that the boss sold him. Zuo Ci pulled the rope in his hands, let Yaohuo hang on his waist, then stood in the stone path connecting the left and right, hesitated for a second, and then chose the direction he wanted to go forward with his left hand.
