Callidora's eyes widened when she heard this.
Osa, Jilunini and Guoguo looked confused, obviously not understanding what he was talking about.
At this moment, Liu Ji, who was in a daze on the side, suddenly smelled the increasing aura of his companion for some reason.
Yayin frowned and said, "Although I also feel something is wrong, but...it seems like you discovered something?"
"Yes, I went to the local church, and then I found this," Mowente said, taking out a pure white seed that even had a somewhat transparent texture.
"This is this?" Yayin took the seed, looked at it carefully, and immediately frowned, "Strange, this thing feels a bit familiar..."
"Of course I'm familiar with it," Mowente said in a deep voice, "The magic veins of this thing look exactly like those in the swamp..."
65. If the priest lets you eat it, can it harm you?
In the work shed in front of the mine, Yayin was studying the seeds that Mowente had obtained.
The Earthwalker children outside the door sat in a group, looking curiously into the house.
Outside, at the stove, Callidora and Guoguo were cooking, while Mervent was helping to chop wood.
Jilunini and Aosa entered the mine, intending to confirm the environment inside.
As for Liu Ji.
He was lying on the table nearby, staring at the scene in a daze.
Yayin had just said something to him, saying that this kind of thing might have something to do with the monsters in the swamp.
He kept thinking that although the black monster was quite disgusting, this thing at least didn't look that hard to swallow.
Um……
It's a pity that Yayin probably won't approve of him eating indiscriminately.
About an hour later, the food was ready and after being distributed to the children, Callidora walked in with portions for Liu Ji and Yayin.
There are not many ingredients here, only a grain that tastes similar to millet, and some dried vegetables. Fortunately, they have more supplies, so they took some meat and cooked it with dried vegetables and grains to make porridge, which smelled quite fragrant.
At least the little landwalkers outside had a good time.
Liu Ji took the porridge, thanked Callidora, and then glanced at Yayin with some worry, worried that the latter would forget to eat because he was focusing on research.
But soon he found that he was thinking too much. Yayin casually recited a spell, and a ball suddenly floated out of the porridge and slowly floated to her mouth. She opened her mouth and ate it without anyone paying attention. Leave the magic circle in front of you.
Even after eating the whole meal, when Liu Ji still had half a bowl left, Ya Yin had already finished it.
Not long after the meal, Ossa and Jilunini came back, holding some broken crystals.
Although the tavern owner said that he had free meals and drinks, it was still more convenient to have some currency that could be used to spend money when traveling locally.
After finishing the porridge that was specially warmed for them in the pot, they returned to the hut with the cooking team.
A group of people brought a group of children, and now they all gathered around Yain, waiting for the results of her research.
This wait is another two hours.
Just when everyone was drowsy from waiting, the magic circle in front of Ya Yin finally slowly dissipated.
"What's the result?" Mowente asked impatiently.
"It's weird," Yain frowned. "It is indeed similar to those swamp monsters, but it is not the same. I don't have a sample of the monster on hand, so I can't make a comparison."
"What's the gain?" Aosa asked.
"Well, one thing is very strange," Yayin nodded. "Although there is only a general idea, I really feel that this thing is connected to something, and the direction is..."
As she spoke, Yayin raised two fingers, one pointing down and one pointing up.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
"What do you mean? It's connected to both the bottom and the top at the same time?" Mowente frowned.
"Well," Yayin nodded, "Either it is related to two different things, and those two things happen to be above and below us, or..."
Saying that, Ayin swallowed.
"Or," she said solemnly, "I'm afraid we are in the belly of something now."

City Church.
A middle-aged landwalker wearing a gray robe is distributing daily "Holy Communion".
The content of "Holy Communion" is very simple, a piece of "holy bread" and a cup of "manna", which in human terms is a piece of bread and a cup of water.
There were many people queuing up to receive the meal, most of them were children, but there were also a few elderly people. The gray-robed walker put a piece of bread and a cup of water into each of their hands with a smile.
At this time, a child did not hold the bread firmly when he took it and accidentally dropped the bread on the ground.
Seeing this, the gray-robed landwalker smiled slightly, walked over in person, helped him pick up the bread, and then gently stuffed the soil-covered bread into the child's mouth.
When everyone onlookers saw this, they all clapped and applauded, and the child with the bread in his mouth even burst into tears with excitement.
Seeing this, the gray-robed traveler kept saluting everyone, appearing humble and courteous.
Then, the discovery of the "Holy Supper" continued.
A few minutes later, another accident happened.
An old man shook his hand and accidentally spilled half a glass of water.
Looking at the water stains on the ground, the old man seemed a little distressed, and looked at the gray-robed landwalker with confused and helpless eyes.
Seeing this, the latter showed a reassuring smile, took the cup in his hand, walked to the audience, squatted down, picked up the water-soaked soil, and stuffed it into him bit by bit. cup.
Then, he walked up to the old man, gently pinched his mouth open, and poured the entire glass of muddy water into his mouth.
Seeing the old man drink up the muddy water with emotion, the enthusiasm of the onlookers was also ignited. Some people cheered loudly, and some even knelt down on the spot, with tears on their faces and faced The gray-robed walkers paid homage.
The gray-robed traveler waved his hands and smiled, constantly appeasing everyone's excited emotions, and returned to the stage to continue distributing Holy Communion.
Similar plots continued to play out in subsequent distributions, making the entire distribution process seem lively.
Finally, after more than two hours, everyone got their "Holy Communion", and they dispersed with satisfaction, waiting for the time for the next meal to be distributed.
The gray-robed landwalker also breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his sore shoulders, turned around and walked back to the church.
In the hall of the church, there is a statue of a god. It is a statue of a beautiful girl. It is carved from light yellow spar and exudes a faint fluorescence.
The gray-robed landwalker walked up to the statue, bowed his head and prayed to the statue of the girl for a few minutes, then passed the statue and walked to the back of the church.
And the moment he opened the back door, the light from outside the back door penetrated into the dim church.
That flash of light reflected the scene behind the girl's statue in an instant.
That's a statue too.
Spikes, beards, chaos, sacrifice, growth...
Countless indescribable elements were mixed together, forming a huge picture that completely filled the several-meter-high walls of the church together with the ceiling.
No one can tell clearly what that giant thing is...
However, the chaotic statue in the darkness was so incompatible with the beautiful girl.
But, they complement each other so well.

In the city tavern, everyone once again found the tavern owner and entrusted the group of small landwalkers to him.
No matter what the situation here is, they are a group of outsiders after all. It is impossible to take care of these children for a lifetime. If they don’t want to leave it to the church, they can only leave it to this boss...
Although, as long as I'm in this city, I'm afraid it's inseparable from the church.
"So, what should we do next?" Guoguo looked at the children lying in the tavern window looking at them with a complicated expression, "Just leave it alone, I don't know what will happen to them in the future..."
"Guoguo, I'm still running for my life," Yayin sighed, "This whole city's problem is not something we can help with."
"Well, I know," Guoguo said in a low tone, "It's just that these children were really pitiful and sensible before... No, I'm sorry, we really can't do anything. I shouldn't mention this."
"It's okay, everyone actually feels the same way," Yayin patted Guoguo on the shoulder, "But now, we have other things to do."
After that, she turned around and said in a deep voice: "Let's go and see what the so-called frontline battlefield here has."
66. I have never dared to play a VR horror game in my life.
There is only one road from Swamp Vortex City to the frontline battlefield.
Keep walking along the largest main road in the city. At the end of the road, there is a spiral staircase leading to the lower level.
There are guards guarding the place on weekdays, and no one will be allowed to pass except the Earth Walkers who are going to join the army.
According to Guoguo, they previously rescued a young Earth Walker who was planning to join the army. Later, relying on him to lead the way, Snow and Wei Luo went directly to find the relevant person in charge, saying that they would fight for them against the alien army. Protect the world, do your part, and then sneak in.
Having said that, for everyone now, there is no need to be so troublesome.
They didn't look for anyone, and they didn't make any preparations. They just kept their original appearance and swaggered directly along the road to the entrance of the spiral staircase.
The Earthwalker guard at the entrance saw them and was about to stop them, but his eyes met Callidora's.
Then, they retracted and stood honestly in their original position, as if they hadn't seen anything, and just let everyone swagger into the spiral staircase.
"Although I have experienced it many times..." Guoguo followed Yain and murmured in a low voice, "But every time I see Sister Carly's ability, I still feel that it is so powerful."
"Well, after all, she used to be called the Phantom Dragon Saint," Ayin smiled and poked Callidora with her elbow, "Hey, right, Lady Saint."
"Don't call me that," Callidora said with a bitter smile, "That was what they called me indiscriminately when they were in school. Mowente was still called the Shadow Blade Overlord at that time."
"Pfft," Osa on the side made a nasal noise, and immediately waved his hand to Mowente and explained, "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else, I just want to laugh every time I hear this name."
Mowente, who was inexplicably injured by accident, twitched the corner of his mouth, and the next moment his body flashed, and he ran to nowhere.
Everyone was used to this and just moved on.
The spiral staircase leading to the depths and the hanging staircase leading to the ground were completely unilluminated, and the entire journey was pitch black.
Compared to the previous upper spiral staircase, which had been in disrepair for a long time and was either missing a section or had a hole, this section of the spiral staircase was old but at least it was complete, and there were even special handrails on both sides.
To be on the safe side, Yain did not use too conspicuous daylight magic for lighting. Earthwalkers are sensitive to warm light, and using daylight magic is easy to be noticed.
As a substitute, she took out a lantern.
The lantern contained the crystals that Ao Sa and Ji Lunini had found inside the mine.
Although the light of this crystal was weak, if it was filled with a lantern, it would still be no problem to illuminate in this closed dark environment.
But...
I don't know if it was a psychological problem caused by insufficient lighting. The further they walked down, the more they felt uneasy.
They always felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the darkness around them, but when they stopped to check, they found nothing and could not find anything every time.
After walking for a long time, everyone began to doubt themselves, wondering if they were made a little suspicious by the dark environment.
Especially Liu Ji, although he was walking in the front, he was actually very panicked, maintaining the desert incarnation throughout the whole process, fearing that something would jump out from somewhere and bite him.
Although he knew that even if something really came to bite him, it should not cause him any harm.
But... this has nothing to do with panic.
What he hated most in the past was playing horror games where the whole screen was pitch black and you had to use a camera to open the night vision to get a narrow view of the underworld.
This is how it feels now.
And just as Liu Ji was holding on to his courage and walking down carefully, suddenly, he felt that he stepped on something slippery.
He looked down and saw that his right foot was stepping on a black alien monster.
The monster slowly raised its head, and a creepy smile appeared on its face full of eyes.
Then, the monster opened its mouth wide, and the bloody mouth was full of circles of sharp teeth.
He lost consciousness for a moment, and then the next second, he suddenly found himself standing on a reef in the abyss, and the monster's huge mouth was covering him like the sky and the sun.
"Liu Ji! Liu Ji!"
"Ah!" Liu Ji shuddered suddenly, and when he came to his senses, he saw Kalidora standing in front of him, looking into his eyes nervously.
