"Tilly, you can't!" Ash just wanted to stop, but she was interrupted.
"If you want to enter the cave, you must rely on a witch with the ability to fly to bring people out," Tilly shook the ring on her finger, "Although the mana consumption will greatly increase after carrying heavy objects, but at least I can bring extra A witch, this is very important for the operation. Bring another witch, and we can deal with more situations." She paused and looked at the witch in Border Town, "Anna, Lightning, Maisie, I need your help. ."
The three did not express any objection, and the little girl also showed an eager expression.
Tilly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then the people who went to the bottom of the cave plus Ashes, Shawei, Sylvie, and the rest of the sisters, I'll leave the entrance of the ground to you."
"Lord Tilly, let me accompany you," Andrea said.
"In case of encountering a group of evil beasts, Nightingale may not be able to take care of her alone," she shook her head. "You and her are far and near, so you can cooperate with each other."
"Don't worry, I will guard the exit for you," Nightingale looked confident, "Neither a devil nor an evil beast can get close to this place."
Tilly thought very clearly that the number of witches she could go down depended on the carrying ability of the flying witch. First of all, the heaviest is the "ice coffin". If it cannot be awakened on the spot and must be chopped and taken away, it is at least the weight of two or three witches. Only Shawei's invisible barrier can hold such a heavy object.
Sylvie's magic eye is a must. Without her, they couldn't find the exact location of the ruins in the monster's belly. Anna's cutting and heating abilities are the same, but neither of them can fly. Fortunately, they are lighter and can be carried by Maisie after transforming into a magic bird. In the end, it is the ashes of the superhuman who can fight stably in any situation, and act on their own shoulders.
Although the lightning can fly, according to her own words, once it catches up with the personnel, the altitude will drop very sharply, and I am afraid that it will not be able to fly into this deep cave. Her advantage lies in her excellent flexibility and speed, which can effectively play the role of warning, detection and flanking.
The importance of these witches is almost irreplaceable, and one less person will make things extremely difficult, so going down by yourself is not an impulse, but a decision made after thorough consideration.
As for Andrea... She is extremely destructive at close range, but once she encounters a narrow area where she can't reach her fingers, her ability will be greatly reduced. It is better to stay on the ground with Nightingale and beware of the evil beasts lingering nearby.
It's not that Tilly didn't think about giving up the rescue, so she went home. But she always had an uneasy premonition in her heart. Why did the surrounding area remain intact, but she took a fancy to this stone pagoda ruin? Especially in the direction the giant beast crawls, she looks at the mountains in the northwest, and after that it is where the devil lives.
Is there any connection between the two
The hot air balloon landed quickly and steadily under the control of Wendy and Anna. Tilly put aside the distracting thoughts in her mind, reviewed the plan again, took a deep breath, and said word by word, "Let's go."
…
The pothole was deeper than she had expected. The inside of the hole was about two stories high. At first, it was straight down, and it didn't take long for it to start to slope, and finally a horizontal passage was formed. The surrounding soil exudes an unpleasant smell, and if you get close, you can see the sticky liquid dripping from the surface of the soil, like the wet marks left by slugs crawling over.
As the group continued to go deeper, the light shot in the hole quickly disappeared, and the entire bottom of the hole was plunged into darkness except for the faint light of a few torches. Not only that, the whistling wind also became silent, the coldness was gradually replaced by the geothermal heat, and Tilly felt that her body was getting warmer.
Looking at the flickering firelight, she couldn't help but think of fireflies.
"The giant beast is ahead," Sylvie said softly at this moment.
But without her not reminding, everyone knew that they were not far from the target. There was a strange sound coming from the depths of the cave, some like the rustling sound of the autumn wind blowing through the woods, and it seemed to be the sound of chewing.
"Come down," she let Ashes behind her swing the torch twice, and then controlled the magic stone to lower the height until her feet fell into the soft and sticky mud.
Then Anna's cold light lit up.
She changed the black fire back to the heart fire, and the cold and soft light suddenly spread all around. Under the green fire light, the witches could clearly see the tail of the giant beast. It crawls forward slowly, the squirming gray skin constantly secretes mucus, and the smell of corruption is stronger.
"A disgusting big bug," Ashes drew out his big sword, "what should I do next, cut its belly?"
"Wait, Anna has to kill it," Tilly shook her head, "I don't know if the contents in its stomach are a threat to us, it's too risky for you to get close to swinging your sword."
"Well, let me try it." While maintaining the green fire, Anna summoned a black fire again. In the blink of an eye, the black fire turned into a thin line as thick as a finger, and flew straight towards the giant beast.
The thin thread pierced through the monster's skin without resistance and cut toward the side of the belly. Perhaps the temperature was too high, and the epidermis touched by the black line immediately burned, and the liquid in the body was vaporized and a billowing white mist was sprayed out. Sha Wei, who had been equipped for a long time, propped up an invisible shield to block the splashing juice one by one.
This is the power of evolution, Tilly thought to herself, although Anna had introduced her abilities before she set off, she was still shocked when she saw it with her own eyes. It can move out of the body at will, and the thin-line black fire is sharper than any great sword, and it is extremely difficult to observe its movement trajectory, and it is impossible for the enemy to dodge.
The monster let out a shrill wailing sound, and its body squirmed wildly. But the black fire continued to cut forward, and quickly shattered most of its plump body. Before the flowing liquid could get close to the witch, it was evaporated by another green fire.
Gradually, the giant beast stopped struggling, and the skin loosened.
"It's dead," Sylvie said. "The heart has stopped beating."
"This guy also has a heart?" Ash asked while pinching his nose.
"At the head, it's about the size of Yuan Wang's gondola. And..." she paused, "there's magic flowing through it."
"So, this is a hybrid demon beast?"
"No one knows the answer," Tilly said. "There are very few records of evil beasts and wildlands in the history books. There are too many unknown things here. Let's dig out the ice coffin first."
After Anna's re-burning, the rancid smell was not as strong as before. Under the guidance of Sylvie, they quickly found the ruins that were swallowed up. Of course, now the basement has been turned into scattered stones, and the original appearance cannot be seen at all. Most of the glowing magic stones that Lightning mentioned have changed. It became a lump of paste. Fortunately, the transparent crystal stone pillar is still intact. After being turned out from the sticky belly, there is not even a trace of corrosion on it. The woman enclosed in the crystal stone is still lifelike.
"It's up to you next," Tilly said to Anna. (., Your support is my biggest motivation.) 16-09-29 04:03:27
