Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Six Preliminary Exploration
Considering that it would be impossible to solve things in one day, and that we might even go back and forth repeatedly to explore, we decided to set up a temporary resting place. After everyone decided on their own rooms, everyone gathered together and began to discuss strategies for the strategy.
"We have properly handled the logistical work that everyone is worried about. With this temporary resting point, I think we can act less rashly. I think the main task this afternoon is to look for clues in the town. If there are no clues and there is still time,
If you have enough money, let’s go for a walk near the foot of the mountain. Going deeper is not recommended. After grasping most of the situation, we will go deep into the forest behind tomorrow.”
Akari sat in front of everyone and hung a huge drawing on the wall. This drawing was a simple drawing by Akari, using simple lines to draw the current location and town on it.
"The method mentioned by Sister Akari is feasible. The rocky mountain behind is much larger than I imagined. The depth and complexity inside may be extraordinary. In this way, we will explore a certain distance every day, leaving time for retreat, and use maps and
Mark the road signs we brought with us to make it easier for us to explore next time.”
Mamoru was analyzing on the side, and it seemed that this was indeed the safest approach. In this field that is filled with too many unknowns, it is important to maintain a sufficient mental state at all times.
"Since everyone has no objections, let's take action quickly without further ado. Although there is such a resting point, according to this environment that continues to heat up, the longer the delay, the more disadvantageous it is for us. Take action as soon as possible."
After saying that, he took the lead and left the room. The others looked at each other and followed Akari's footsteps and went out one after another.
"The town is relatively large, and the temperature is relatively not that high, so the possibility of it being the source of the anomaly is extremely low. Even so, we still need to be cautious, considering efficiency and safety. Everyone works in groups of two, and between groups
Don’t be too far away. That’s it, search quickly. If you have any questions, use a headset to communicate. In this damn environment, I’m afraid you can’t use this kind of headset to communicate in deep and high temperatures. Although the one we bought has certain high temperature resistance, I don’t think so.
It can go smoothly inside”
After saying that, Akari pulled Lao Peng and walked directly towards a street. Xiao Lin and Mamoru took a look, and the two of them walked on the road separated from Akari.
Now there were only two people left. Li Feng and Saki Tong were speechless for a while, then put on their headsets and set off towards another road.
The previous headset was corroded and damaged due to the impact of the mutation. This time, Akari spent money to buy a brand new one. However, judging from the situation, I am afraid that it will not be used for too long before it will be damaged again.
This time, Li Feng rarely took the lead and wanted to show off. Usually, because Saki Hitomi was more powerful, and because Saki Hitomi was a swordsman and Li Feng was a mage, Li Feng basically kept hiding behind Saki Hitomi.
Behind him, he finally turned over this time. Li Feng held his beloved magic wand and moved forward in a battle-ready state.
"Be careful, there may be an ambush around"
Saki Hitomi, who was walking behind, whispered a reminder and also drew his sword, ready to enter the battle at any time.
It was quiet all around, and the two people with very sensitive hearing could only hear the footsteps of the other two teams, but nothing else. It happened to be this complete silence, which heightened the atmosphere of terror. Obviously
Surrounded by orderly houses, this place that should have been bustling with activity is now deserted. Horror movies like this kind of routine. And Li Feng happens to be quite nervous about this kind of routine.

There was a sudden sound from the right front, and Li Feng, who was highly nervous, almost jumped up. He picked up the wand, bent down, lowered his body, and jumped forward slightly to stick to the wall. The wand in his hand had begun to condense fireballs, and his head was slightly upward.
He slowly probed, slowly preparing to take a look through the window to see what was going on where the sound was coming from.
Saki Hitomi also clearly heard the noise, and her reaction was no slower than Li Feng's, even faster. With a slight push of her right foot, she instantly jumped farther than Li Feng. She lowered her whole body and stepped out of the window.
They passed by quickly below and stuck to the wall on the other side, staring at the window just like Li Feng.
Li Feng slowly poked his head upward, and Saki Hitomi slowly poked his head to the right, facing the same window and slowly expanding his view of the room.
Click...
There was another sound inside, the fireball in Li Feng's wand was ready to go, and Saki Hitomi was also ready to launch a direct attack. After waiting for a while, it was so quiet inside that you could hear a pin drop. The two people looked at each other, click.
head, conveying the meaning of both parties. Then he suddenly poked his head out at the same time, completely opening his field of vision from the window, preparing for a sudden attack.
Who would have thought that when I looked inside the house, there was nothing inside. The sunlight from outside came through the windows, and it shone brightly. Inside was a shop, which looked more like an antique store, with various items that looked chronological to Azure Star.
items.
What's the situation? Is the enemy hiding? Do you want to fight blindly? It's so messy here. As long as you bomb like crazy, you can guarantee to hit the enemy. All kinds of thoughts crazily poured into Li Feng's mind in an instant, and at the same time, the flames on the top of the wand
Increasingly manic.
But what if the other party is not an enemy, but just a person left here. And even if he takes action and destroys the things here, is it worth it? You have to know that if this fireball goes down, it will probably explode in this kind of hut.
It would cause a devastating blow, and basically everything would be destroyed. And the burning embers would cause a series of fires. What if there was something very valuable, and I wouldn't be able to afford it.
At this moment, Li Feng realized that the spell he subconsciously chose had failed. If he had prepared to release an ice cone in advance, or if he had learned several newly learned spells, this dilemma would not have arisen.
Double rational thinking prevented Li Feng from rushing to take action and continued to observe inside. His vigilance kept him highly concentrated for fear of being suddenly attacked by the opposite party.

There was another sound, and Li Feng took out his wand and pointed it inside. When the mission was urgent and necessary, he had no intention of thinking about anything else.
But it was at this moment that Li Feng finally discovered where the sound came from.
Beside, Saki Hitomi, who had already stepped on the window with one foot and was ready to rush in at any moment, also discovered the place where the sound came from.
A huge antique clockwork wall clock hangs on the wall and keeps ticking silently. This wall clock has no second hand, only the minute hand that keeps trembling.
Click...
The minute hand moved, once every minute, and then there was such a sound.
"call"
