Chapter 70 Waves
"It's the water source, right?"
Hill nodded, looking like he could still save his life.
"We are currently on the second level of the underground city. This is a huge jungle ecosystem, and the water source in front of us should be a lake."
Ivan finally found something wrong. The endless blue in front of him was much more exaggerated than a lake. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was an ocean.
"So what the hell is this place!"
"I thought you understood...I was really like an idiot expecting you."
The girl covered her face, fully experiencing the feeling of being pressed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.
"Listen carefully, there must be a limit to the size of a dungeon. There is absolutely no possibility of an ecosystem beyond its scope, and judging from the flat surface of the water, it is definitely not an ocean." The girl cleared her throat.
Continue to explain to the fool in front of him: "And this water source can't be seen to the end from our sight."
"So, the fact is that these creatures are not huge. It's that we have been artificially shrunk."
"You mean we've all been hit by the shrinking ray since entering the second level?!"
The shrinking ray is a low-level transformation spell among the change spells. It can change the size of things. Hill's conclusion is that the animals and plants here are just normal, and they themselves are the most "abnormal" existence in this layer.
.
"Yes, it should be the work of the academy. We were shrunk the moment we left the tree hole. As for why the animals chased us, I think it may be because the academy did something to us. Such a simple fact
You can’t even figure it out.”
"Ahem, actually I already knew..." Ivan smiled awkwardly: "In the final analysis, how should we end this state?"
As soon as they finished speaking, bits and pieces of magic light dust emerged from their bodies. These light dust revolved around the bodies of the two people. In a strange colorful light, everything returned to normal.
"It seems that this spell should be based on meeting certain conditions as a way to remove the spell."
Both Hill and Ivan were looking at their bodies. Just as they guessed, some of the trees here no longer looked towering.
There were clouds, and those "behemoths" were no longer visible in the jungle.
"The old witch is really scheming."
Andrea, who didn't know where she was, sneezed heavily at this time.
"You are too stupid."
"..."
"Wait, where are you going?"
Seeing Ivan turn around and leave, Hill thought he was angry, so his voice couldn't help but soften a little.
"Me? Me, let's go find the rabbit who chased me before to settle the score and see who is chasing whom now."
"I am really a fool, I would worry about you..."
It's a pity that before Ivan's revenge has begun, a change has occurred.
The space in front of them was suddenly torn open, and the teleportation "door" with orange waves of light shocked the two of them, but then they gradually became happy.
"It seems that this level is where the academy tests our observation skills. As long as we figure out the puzzle, we can naturally leave here."
The two people walked into the whirlpool-like portal for just a moment. When they turned back, they were far away from the sea of trees, and the surroundings turned into a complex of buildings in the style of ancient underground ruins.
These buildings are made of a special dark yellow metal, which is mostly produced on the northwest coast of the Irish continent. Because it is located in the "Ambition Kingdom" of the dwarves, this metal is also called a dwarf metal block.
"Wow, there are so many dwarf metals, could we have ended up in the Kingdom of Ambition?"
"Get rich, get rich!"
Ivan looked at the very excited Hill speechlessly.
The girl's eyes were shining like stars, and it was obvious that she was suffering from an occupational disease.
"I said, can you stop being so pragmatic? The top priority is not these metals."
"What do you know? Dwarven metal blocks are not only rare in the north, but also have unusual prices in the south. Which archmage is not rich in wealth?"
"That's what I say." Ivan knocked twice on the building here with his staff: "But how do you want to take away all these "gold coins"?"
"This... I haven't thought about it yet."
"..."
In fact, the two of them still managed to do something with the metal in the end.
There is no law.
While Ivan used the magic lamp to look inside, he still had to endure Hill's thoughts.
Compared with the first and second floors, the third floor looks like an underground ruins.
Darkness fills most of the area here, with only the ores growing everywhere providing little light. The strange and transparent jellyfish-like plants are also the first time the two of them have collected them.
There are also countless traps here. It resembles a platform that shoots flames, and there are two rotating mechanical wings, any one of which may kill Ivan.
Fortunately, the two of them have a high degree of tacit understanding, and can barely break through some traps just by helping each other.
But perhaps because humans lose their sense of direction in the dark, and because of the huge underground ruins, Ivan and Hill have still not been able to find the correct path.
However, the most deadly thing here is not these traps, but the ancient protection system left by the owner of the ruins.
A product of magical technology that rivals the era of hobgoblins!
"Tongues of Fire."
Another burst of flames tightly surrounded the big iron ball in front of Ivan, but these guardians of the ruins did not know pain or fatigue at all. Their only purpose was to destroy the invaders. Even after a thousand years, they are still like this
Loyally guarding everything in the ruins for the owner here.
The tips of the dark copper-colored claws were put together, and a thin sword protruded from it, crossing the scorching flames, and charged towards Ivan like a knight.
"Surge."
The blue barrier formed by the tide pushed the guardian of the ruins out. Ivan took this opportunity and cast a ground trap to make it difficult for the opponent to escape for a while.
The biggest feature of these guardians is that they are durable. Ivan has already thrown more than a dozen elemental spells at them, but they have no effect, so he can only take this opportunity to temporarily control these iron skin bumps.
"Winter is coming, frost will freeze everything!"
As the incantation was completed, the surrounding world suddenly changed color, a huge cold current passed by, and the ground was covered with thick frost. The guardian of the ruins who was stuck in the mire was no exception, and ice edges climbed onto it.
