Chapter 686: Underground adventure

The "Ancient Abyss" Jinlunga is like a huge bridge, connecting the "surface world" and "dark area".
Inside this long and narrow rift valley between light and darkness, giant bone fossils of ancient creatures can be seen everywhere.
There are also hills, rivers and calm lakes in the abyss, but more are huge caves. The tunnels connecting these huge caves often stretch for tens of miles. Some roads are wide enough for giant dragons to walk, and some are so narrow that it is difficult for even lizards to pass through the ground.
The entrances of some of the tunnels are shaped like navel eyes, and people call them "ground navels", leading to a more ancient and mysterious underground world-by Drow and Demon, Devil Fish, Eye "Dark areas" ruled by evil and strange monsters such as demons.
In the abyss where the ravines criss-cross, dots of light form a zigzag long dragon, winding forward toward the north.
If you zoom in, you will find that this luminous queue is an expedition team, and the light source comes from the magic miner's lamp installed on the helmets of the expedition members.
Thirty-one people, including six female students, all graduate students from various branches of Meadgard University, are performing exploration missions outside the "Ancient Abyss".
The expedition consisted of several groups, including two groups led by Arnold Laval and Hailar Green. All eight members of the team rode on the ground to drive the lizard.
The other twenty-three expedition members, either lacking in riding skills or lacking the courage to ride lizards, traveled with six-headed and temperamental underground beasts.
Arnold from Cavaliers College, born in a noble family, is also the current president of the "Skull Society", can be described as "elite among the elite", in the expedition has a prestige that no one else can compare.
In addition, Arnold also has the most abundant underground exploration experience, and was selected as the leader of the entire expedition with an overwhelming advantage.
Arnold did not waste his power. From the beginning of his tenure, he disbanded the expedition team formed by three or four friends spontaneously, and reorganized the expedition team according to the differences in extraordinary professions.
Arnold first selected the "warriors" and "knights" in the team and arranged them at the forefront of the team to be responsible for pathfinding.
These two types of extraordinary professionals are good at melee, and their defense is relatively strong. In case of an ambush, they can respond in the shortest time.
The more vulnerable spell-casting professions such as wizards, warlocks, and poets were arranged in the center of the team by Arnold and were most fully protected.
In case of an enemy attack, the casters will not be attacked for the first time, and there is ample time and space to use the spell to support the former line-up.
The pastors in the team were mostly girls, and Arnold was arranged at the end of the team, responsible for breaking. In the event of a battle, the priests can protect the arcane spellcaster nearby, and they can use divine magic to provide healing to teammates.
Arnold's arrangement seems reasonable. He himself stood at the forefront of the expedition, demonstrating the selflessness of the Grand Duke and winning the appreciation of his teammates.
But in private, there are still sporadic voices of doubt.
For example, Holden suspected that Arnold had a selfish component in this arrangement, in order to put Audrey to the forefront, so as to have more opportunities to get in touch with Audrey up close and facilitate his pursuit of offensive.
Holden's guess is a bit of a villain. But Audrey and Hailar, as the only female knights in the team, and the two most beautiful "flowers", were indeed treated by the stars.
Joan was arranged in the center of the team. After two days of adaptation, he was already able to master the lizards in the rugged rift.
With him, there are Holden, Angel and Lane who also ride lizards.
Holden and Angel both have a little artistic temperament, they are humorous and funny, and the words are like beads. Joan and Ryan are more introverted, not much talked about, but they are very good listeners. After two days of travel, the four young people got along well.
In these two days, Joan's mentality has changed a lot.
At the beginning of the adventure, his mood was both tense and full of anticipation, as if he would be attacked by monsters immediately, or see a spectacle that is very different from the surface world.
However, after two days of travel, his worries and expectations were completely defeated.
The scenery seen on the journey is nothing more than rolling valleys and caves. At first, I felt a little fresh, and it was tedious to read more. Especially the steep cliffs in the abyss and the dim atmosphere that is hard to see in the sky make people feel depressed.
As for the enemy, we cannot say no, but it is not a threat at all.
On the afternoon of the first day of the adventure trip, there appeared a group of fierce rats as big as dogs, which really excited the expedition members including Joan for a while.
The team immediately stopped marching and formed a defensive formation on the spot. Joan quickly photographed two protective spells on himself, waiting for support instructions to be sent forward.
However, he and other casters waited for a long time, but the last news was that the violent rats had been wiped out by the teammates in front of them, and they did not need their help.
Afterwards, Holden said disappointedly: "The guys at the Cavaliers Academy are simply a group of animals. They rushed up two or three times to kill the violent rats, and they did not leave us a few to relieve boredom."
"If this is heard by your sister and Hailar." Angel smiled bitterly. "Although it is a bit disappointing, but this is also a normal operation. The value of the knights is mainly reflected in helping us save spells."
Of course there is nothing wrong with Angel's words, but the spell position cannot be born in the hands, and it will be reset the next day. It is a waste if not used.
Joan didn't want to waste his spells in vain.
When camping at night, he always opened the folding desk in the tent, spread out the spell books, parchment and ink bottles, and then took out the "automatic quill pen" he made, set up the automatic transcription process, which will be today The remaining spell slots, mythical power, and Sid mana are all transcribed into arcane scrolls.
"Automatic quill pen" jumped into the ink bottle, dipped in the ink and swayed at the mouth of the bottle, and immediately jumped on the parchment paper, and copied the arcane diligently according to Joan's instructions.
At the same time, Joan sits on a blanket and begins his regular meditation homework every night, shaping the spiritual power into a probe, exploring the mysteries of the third layer of the magic net, and deepening the understanding of the essence of magic.
After an hour of meditation, Joan opened his eyes and took out the "navigation compass" to view the map data collected today.
Touching the compass with your fingertips, meditation to start the spell, magical aura emerged on the surface of the compass, and a three-dimensional picture was transformed, showing the path he traveled today and the geographical environment within 30 miles of the path. If you think the miniature map is not clear enough, you can also enlarge the picture in equal proportions.
