Arcane Lord

After descending about 3 meters, a side hole appeared on the wall of the pit. Xia Duo threw a [Light Technique] to illuminate the inside. With just one glance, he judged that the space inside was really quite big.

There is a larger space inside first, and there are several passages next to it, which should lead to other spaces. Xia Duo did not find the troll in the large space. If there had been, perhaps he should have been discovered when he came down.

However, Xia Duo did not relax his vigilance because of this. He carefully "floated" into the large space with his sword and shield. Under the illumination of [Light Technique], the surrounding walls and ground were either green or black, or The dark red and black dried flesh is clearly visible.

There was also a pile of carrion and bones piled up in one corner, which seemed to be the leftover dinner of the two trolls. They wanted to stay behind and continue to enjoy it, but it was obvious that they had no chance now that they had turned into a pile of ashes and remains.

Xia Duo floated around in this large space cave, using the tip of his sword to poke and pick at various suspicious locations, but in the end he didn't find anything valuable.

Also, how can such a beast-like creature have any sense of collection?

Most likely it’s some food!

Xia Duo turned his attention to several cave entrances around the large space cave, which were also connected to several smaller space caves. He chose the largest one. The innermost floor of this cave was covered with a piece of blue-gray wolf skin. , there are a few obviously green leather tree fruits scattered on the wolf skin.

This wolf skin is worth a little bit, but it is not worth mentioning to Xia Duo now. Moreover, it is conceivable that the smell of this wolf skin is strong, and he does not want to pollute his personal space.

Afterwards, Xia Duo entered a branch cave nearby, which contained some wild fruits and a large amount of carrion. It seemed that this was the troll's storage space.

Xia Duo was once again glad that his body had blocked out the odor, otherwise he would have had a better time here!

He still poked around with his sword. This was just a casual attempt. He didn't really expect to find any treasure here, but what he didn't expect was--

There was a "ding" sound, and the tip of the sword seemed to hit some metal. It had a feel that was obviously different from other materials. Xia Duo suddenly became interested.

There was almost no civilization in this area, so where did the metal come from? Xia Duo thought about the elf ruins. Could there be one here?

When he thought of this possibility, he felt both happy and a little resistant. Happily, relics can bring benefits; but reluctantly, relics can also bring trouble.

Just like the Mystic Chain ruins to the east, the magic network there is still in riots!

What's more troublesome than the magic network riot is that it may attract the attention of interested people (elves), which is not worth the gain for Xia Duo, who needs time to develop the most.

However, it is always good to have ruins, but this development time needs to be considered.

Xia Duo picked it up with his sword and picked out a hard object from under a pile of half-rotten wild fruits. The hard object was one finger thick, the size of two palms, square in shape, and damaged.

"It looks like a metal plate?"

With an inquiring mind, Xia Duo summoned water and washed it repeatedly, and the metal plate finally revealed its true appearance——

It was not a metal plate as he had thought before. Although the touch and sound of the sword tip were very similar, after cleaning it, Xia Duo found that it was more like a clay tablet.

Because, when the water flow washed away, the original defective part of the edge was partially disintegrated by the water. If Xia Duo had not controlled it properly, perhaps this clay tablet would have been destroyed by a simple cleaning process.

Metal doesn’t look like this!

The entire clay tablet was yellowish brown, with one side smooth and one rough. The rough side was not worth mentioning, but the smooth side gave Xia Duo a great shock.

There are actually arcane geometric figures engraved on it. Although they are only some extremely basic figures that can be called "elements", the fact that these figures appear on a clay tablet in the troll's lair is very worth pondering.

In addition to graphics, the smooth front of this clay tablet (as Xia Duo calls it) is also engraved with some very unfamiliar words with complex strokes and strange shapes.

This clay tablet is mainly composed of text, and arcane geometric figures are only used as decoration. There are six lines of text in total, and the length of each line is slightly different. There are repetitions of text units that are not known to be words or letters.

It was also because of this that Xia Duocai concluded that this was probably a kind of writing.

Judging from the text, even if there are ruins here, they are unlikely to be elven ruins, because the text really doesn't match up. Xia Duo knows elven text quite well, and the text here has no similarity with the elven text.

Even people who don't know anything about elven writing can easily make such a judgment after seeing these two kinds of writing.

Putting away the slate, Xia Duo finally gained some interest in the next sweep, but it was just some relics. He was not lacking in relics now.

You must know that over the Mystic Ruins, because there is a large area that was originally covered up, it is certain that there are at least some mithril parts in it, which is more useful than digging holes here aimlessly.

However, a kind of clay tablet with unknown writing and arcane geometric patterns still made Xia Duo interested in the ruins here. When there are enough manpower, he must come and dig.

Next, after Xia Duo checked the two branch caves, he found two more mysterious clay tablets similar to the ones before. Unfortunately, these two tablets were seriously damaged, especially the words on them. After cleaning, they were almost in ruins. disappear.

It seems that the ruins should be nearby.

He didn't think that the troll would go all the way somewhere to dig up a few pieces of clay that were neither edible nor usable, and then bring them back all the way!

…

Soon there was only the last branch cave left here. Among the four or five branch caves, only this one had the smallest passage connecting to the large space cave.

Xia Duo also put it last for inspection. By this time, the [Flying] state on his body had long disappeared. Of course, he would not be stingy with just a [Flying Technique].

But this time, there was no need for him to fly in. When he reached the entrance of the cave, he already understood the situation inside. Behind this smallest passage, there was only a small space of less than one cubic meter.

Of course, the most important thing is that there is a downward passage in that space. When Sha Duo approached here, he clearly heard two low roars coming from below.

[Xinbiquge www.xbiquge.biz] It seems like fear and threat.

Shado couldn't understand the language of the trolls, but he only needed to know that "only dead trolls are good trolls". That was enough. He first extended the tip of his sword to the entrance of the passage inside.

"Click"

Two tiny bone spurs were thrown up and hit the sword. The force was really quite strong, but compared to Xia Duo, it was a bit weak.

But he also judged that the troll below should be a small troll, and its power was far less than that of the big troll.

Of course, even the little troll cannot be spared.

Who knows how many trolls they will give birth to in the future. This is a huge threat to the Great Xia Territory!

According to the previous process, they were imprisoned, pierced, and set on fire. After a while, the two little trolls had turned into a pile of ashes and remains. After doing this, Xia Duo took three mysterious stone slabs and flew out from the passage through which he first entered. .

Fly straight to Linshui Village.
