Chapter 506: Yamanaka Tunnel
Going all the way down the slightly steep and spacious earthen stairs, under the illumination of several magic light spheres cast by Ju Bai just behind him, Lei Xiao noticed.
Around the stair passage, that is, the surrounding mountain walls, there are obvious traces of artificial excavation, which looks fresh and damp.
Obviously, the Holy Night Army had dug it out with magic or corresponding tools not long ago.
"It's no wonder that the disappearing army didn't break out from the ground at the very beginning of the battle. It seems that they spent all their time on it."
Nodding thoughtfully, Lei Xiao thought while paying attention to the steps under his feet: "After all, once the battle starts, the noises of both sides' shouts of killing and magic bombardment can completely cover the sound of underground digging, and you won't be caught here. The cold flame soldiers noticed."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.
He has already stepped down the earthen stairs and came to the flat ground again.
With the light of the magic light ball, Lei Xiao noticed further.
The space under the stairs, even though it is surrounded by gravel and soil left over from excavation, as well as many dead bodies of the Holy Night Army who had no time to escape, still looks very spacious.
And right in front of the group of people, a dark underground tunnel suddenly appeared.
With the night vision effect of Pupil of the Stars, Lei Xiao found out.
This is a long and spacious tunnel, which can easily accommodate at least ten heavily armed soldiers, advancing side by side. The height is a little over three meters, and there is almost no end in sight.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a flat and wide tunnel underground in this forest edge fortress."
Lei Xiao saw this just now, and Ariel, who was surrounded by several light spheres, came over and said in surprise: "You know, although this is the underground of this fortress, it is also located halfway up the mountain."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Not long ago, I led the main subordinates to the Gate of Immortality, that is, the lost city of Furnace Castle of the Dwarves, although the entrance is also on the mountainside.
But the mine tunnels there are all continuously extending downward, and you can see a clear downward slope.
Especially after the first layer of magic restriction was lifted, the second dwarf mine tunnel that he entered had completely started to go deep underground.
But the tunnel in front of him couldn't see any slope.
It's as if from the halfway up on one side of the mountain to the halfway up on the other side of the mountain.
"There are no traces of ore veins, nor traces of mining..."
I saw the orange white who was also surrounded by several light spheres, moved lightly, and had already come to the edge of the tunnel ahead, while observing the surrounding environment, he said thoughtfully: "What is certain is that this is obviously not A mine."
"It is indeed the case. Moreover, it is impossible for the mine to be built so huge. There are no traces of the track of the mine car."
Ariel also stepped forward and added: "A few years ago, I followed my father to inspect several important mine veins around the capital, and I have never seen such a scene."
After a pause, Ariel's starry eyes lit up, and she continued: "Could it be that this place is actually an ancient relic as Old General Bai speculated?"
"Back to Your Royal Highness, it is not yet certain."
Shaking his head slightly, Jubai stretched out his palm and caressed the stone wall of the tunnel, and replied: "The only thing we can confirm now is that the cave wall here has obvious signs of weathering, and it has obviously existed for a long time."
"So that's the case, that's pretty obvious."
I saw Ariel nodded in deep thought, and said: "The other party must have found this tunnel in the mountain first, and came to the place where we are now, and finally dug a part upwards, and finally reached the tunnel just now. armory."
"My dear Fifth Princess is right."
Slightly raising his eyebrows, Lei Xiao listened to the faint cries and howls of the Holy Night Army still coming from the depths of the tunnel, and then said: "Okay, let's stop here for now, let's continue to look forward."
Next, Lei Xiao expanded the number of Earth Guardians who opened the way from four to ten, and then, under Ariel's surprised gaze, he took his own steps first.
After walking along the spacious tunnel for about ten minutes, Lei Xiao noticed.
There is nothing special about this underground tunnel on the mountainside, and there is no trace of artificial excavation. It seems to be formed naturally.
However, the only thing that puzzled Lei Xiao was that this passage was too regular.
It has always maintained a height of more than three meters, and the width of advancing side by side with ten people has hardly changed.
Originally, Lei Xiao suspected that this tunnel might have been caused by some kind of high-level magic penetration during the blank era.
However, in the process of advancing, Lei Xiao discovered again.
A certain section of the terrain in the tunnel often has obvious undulations and curvatures. It is not a perfect straight line, but sometimes curved and sometimes straight.
So, in the end, the idea was rejected.
In this way, with this question in mind, Lei Xiao, who was walking like flying, and his group of four soon reunited with Hong Ye, who had been chasing all the way to the exit of the tunnel.
At this moment, Lei Xiao could already clearly see the dazzling sunlight coming in from outside the cave.
"My lord, the remaining enemy troops have all escaped from the tunnel."
Seeing Lei Xiao's figure, Hong Ye, who was still faintly smoking a wisp of smoke, immediately made a flash and bowed to report.
"Thank you, let's go out and have a look together."
Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao put the question behind him for the time being, and followed Hong Ye to take a step forward.
As for Hong Ye who had just finished spraying fire, Lei Xiao was not worried that Hong Ye's identity as a dragon would be exposed.
Because among the fire magicians, there are indeed a group of powerful magicians who practice this spell. It is said that the inspiration comes from the dragon clan who are good at using dragon breath attacks.
Therefore, Hong Ye's attack can be said to be orthodox.
Next, accompanied by Hong Ye, came to the outside of the tunnel, Lei Xiao looked around and found out.
This place is located in the shade on a cliff, surrounded by dense forests, the location is indeed extremely hidden.
Moreover, if you look up from the bottom of the ~ this place is just in a blind spot, and you can't find the existence of the cave entrance.
"My lord, the other party climbed up through the road-building technique of earth magic."
Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao again, Hong Ye said again: "It must have been discovered by those griffin knights or powerful magicians."
"It makes sense. For the people of our Lengyan around, it is undoubtedly impossible to find the hole on the cliff."
On the other side, Ariel frowned slightly and said: "It's also the guys from Shengye, the blind cat met a dead mouse, these hateful intruders!"
Speaking of this, Ariel's black eyebrows stretched again, she smiled at Lei Xiao and said, "However, fortunately, we have successfully broken it!"
"It's not us, it's whether I'm good or not."
Slightly raising his eyebrows, Lei Xiao then turned to the dragon girl who was standing by and said, "Okay, Hong Ye, find a way to seal this place, we should go back and witness the last moment of this war."
