After the beast died, the adventurer found a magic crystal in its body. Judging from its size, it was a little bigger than the little ghost king's magic crystal. The adventurer's eyes lit up when he saw the magic crystal, but he did not keep it himself. Instead, he took it to the cold man. The cold man took a look at the magic crystal, then waved his hand and said, "You can take this magic crystal. After all, it was you who came up with the idea. It was also you who killed the beast. So this magic crystal is also yours." After that, he stopped looking at the magic crystal. The other people seemed to be eager for this magic crystal, but since the fourth prince said so, he couldn't say anything. After hearing what the fourth prince said, the adventurer thanked him and put it in his pocket. His face showed an excitement that was hard to hide.
Continue moving forward. Zhao Yan asked the adventurer. "I say, is this magic crystal so attractive to you adventurers and national guards? In my opinion, this thing is just an ordinary crystal stone."
The adventurer patted his backpack and said. "Of course, such a large piece of magic crystal can be recycled in the Adventurer's Guild to obtain a considerable amount of wealth, and the uses of magic crystal are not limited to these, and the larger the magic crystal, the more precious it is. For example, such a large magic crystal can be used as a barrier stone to prevent the invasion of magic beasts. It can also be used to make various potions. You are a magician, don't you know the preciousness of magic crystals? You actually asked such a question." Zhao Yan was asked back and didn't know how to answer. You can't say that you have just come to this world for more than a month and don't know anything. If you really say that, don't worry about whether the adventurer in front of you will believe it. Even the other few will regard you as an alien. "I just asked casually. The master didn't teach me anything other than magic." After saying that, he smiled awkwardly. The adventurer saw Zhao Yan's look and his face was full of doubts, but the rule of the industry is not to ask questions and cause unnecessary trouble. So he changed the subject. "Is that so? I heard that your master is the great magician of the Kingdom Army. I didn't expect that you could learn magic from him. You are really lucky." Zhao Yan nodded. "Yes, if I hadn't met the master, I don't know what I would be like now. I am also lucky to have met the master." After saying that, Zhao Yan couldn't help but think of his days at the nun's house and those poor orphans. So he said. "By the way, you said that magic crystals can be used as a barrier to prevent magic beasts. Is there such a barrier around the town?" The adventurer nodded. Zhao Yan continued. "Since there is such a barrier, why do little ghosts kill people in towns? To be honest, I am actually an orphan. In the orphanage, I met an orphan like me, and his sister was killed by a little ghost. Could it be that the barrier cannot defend against little ghosts?" The adventurer thought for a while and said. "The ghosts are a kind of strange beasts, rather than being strange beasts, they are more hateful creatures. Although they are classified as strange beasts and have magic crystals in their bodies, they cannot be considered real strange beasts to be precise. Because these things are very hateful. Although they are not strong, even ordinary people can kill them. The hateful thing is that the speed of their reproduction is very alarming. No matter how many are killed, they cannot be completely annihilated. What's more hateful is that these ghosts have a strong desire to reproduce, and sometimes they will abduct human women as tools for reproduction. And the women are tortured in the process, and finally become half-human and half-ghost. Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they are just waiting for the next ghost. Until death." When he said this, his brows were frowned together, and his teeth were clenched. He couldn't hide his anger. "After the ghosts and humans reproduce, the ghosts have a part of human in their bodies. The effect of the barrier on the ghosts is much weaker, and the magic crystal barrier has less effect on the weaker the alien beasts, until there is no effect. The ghosts are not strong to begin with, so there are so many ghosts in the town. Faced with such weak alien beasts, the national army will naturally not send a strong force to annihilate them because the reproduction speed is too fast. Although there are a certain number of adventurers, most people are not willing to take such tasks. Even if the task is completed, the same thing may happen again before the bounty is received. Only when the number of ghosts really becomes a threat, the union will issue a task to annihilate them once. Then wait for the next time. There is also the mutation of the ghosts. Sometimes the ghosts will mutate into different types, and their strength will rise sharply, such as the ghost king and the ghost lord. This kind of thing transcends the power of the ghost itself and becomes a real alien beast. At this time, there will be some adventurers to deal with such incidents." At this point, the adventurer stopped talking. Zhao Yan knew from his expression that this topic was really frustrating. To put it bluntly, the threat of these little ghosts was simply hateful, but there was no good solution. They were not strong in terms of strength, but there were many of them, so no matter how you cleared them out, it was useless. Leave a few of them, capture a few human females to breed, and they will be a platoon of soldiers in a short time. It was simply unsolvable and helpless. In addition, with the human part, the barrier had basically no effect, and the little ghost king he encountered was obviously intelligent. Unlike the strange beast he just encountered, it attacked purely by instinct. Moreover, the little ghost king could use weapons and knew strategies. To put it bluntly, it was basically not much different from fighting against humans. This might be from some part of humans.
As the group explored the depths of the mine, the indifferent man who was walking in front raised his hand and motioned everyone to stop. Although they encountered some beetle-like strange beasts along the way, they were not as powerful as the one they met for the first time, so it was not difficult for everyone to deal with them. What appeared in front of everyone was actually a deep pit, and there were sounds of fighting coming from the depths of the pit. So Zhao Yan used his fireballs to cling to the walls around the pit and surrounded it. Only then could he see the situation below clearly. He saw five guards holding long swords fighting with some strange beasts. Under the feet of the five people was an abandoned transport road that was only four or five meters wide. Judging from the decay on the surface, it should be a wooden structure. And below, there were many strange beasts constantly rushing towards the few people along the support below. The magician assigned to their group was lying on the back of a guard at this time, and it seemed that he was unconscious at this time. It can be imagined that this magician must have used a lot of magic, and his magic power should have been exhausted at this time, and he would not be able to recover for a while. The people in the pit looked at the sudden brightness around them, and their movements became much more flexible. Some strange beasts that climbed up were easily killed and fell into the depths of the mine. Although there were many of them, they did not pose any threat. At this time, the adventurer took out a rope from his backpack, and slid down the mine entrance where we were in a graceful manner to join the battle. Several guards were not bad either, and they also went down along the rope. Zhao Yan was naturally carried on the shoulders of one of them and came down together. When they came down, the fireball Zhao Yan used to illuminate also followed the caster down. For a moment, the area below was illuminated even brighter. Looking down, there were many abandoned transportation roads like the ones under our feet. They were intricate. There was a mine entrance at the end of each road. I don't know where it leads. "You really helped a lot." The person who spoke was a girl, with a grateful tone in her tone. After that, she kicked away a bug that crawled to her feet. Then she waved her hand and said. "Let's retreat back to the mine first." After that, the group slowly retreated. With the help of our team, it was very easy to retreat back to the mine. After all, these strange beasts were not threatening, and several people in my team were in good condition. Soon, they arrived near the entrance of the mine. The woman pounded the ground with her hands and said, "Earth wall." Then, Zhao Yan felt the mines around him tremble, and then, a wall of earth rose in front of the woman. The entrance of the mine was tightly blocked. After doing all this, the woman felt relieved and looked back at the group. Zhao Yan also used fireballs to illuminate the surroundings in time. Although several people in the woman's team were a little embarrassed, they did not seem to be seriously injured. So Zhao Yan cast magic again. The injured positions of several people recovered quickly. The woman looked at Zhao Yan and nodded. "Thank you for healing our wounds." Zhao Yan also smiled slightly and said nothing. "Second sister." At this time, the indifferent man spoke to the woman. The woman just nodded and did not pay much attention to the indifferent man. The cold man was obviously unhappy about being treated like this by his second sister, but he didn't say anything. The woman went directly to the magician in the team to observe the situation. Zhao Yan found out that the magician in their team was someone he knew. She was pale and breathing heavily. Although she was still in a coma, she looked very uncomfortable. The second princess frowned when she saw the magician in her team. She seemed to be very self-blaming. Her appearance made Zhao Yan feel closer to her, because the temperament revealed by the second princess was different from that of the cold man. She treated everyone equally and did not have any prejudice because the female magician was an adventurer. The cold man was different. Although he was polite to the adventurers in his team, the disdain in his eyes could not be hidden. The adventurer asked at this time. "Second Princess, what happened to you? Why did the magician in your team become like this? It seems that his magic power is seriously exhausted." The second princess sighed when she heard the adventurer ask this. "It's all my fault that I'm not strong enough and I need the most vulnerable magician in the team to protect myself. Just before you arrived, we came to the location of this mine. We thought it was just an ordinary mine, but who knew that a powerful beast suddenly appeared at the bottom of the mine. It suddenly jumped over the wall and attacked us. Although there was lighting magic at that time, the area of the pit wall was too large and we didn't notice it at all. When we found it, the beast was already close at hand. Although several people blocked the beast's attack, they inevitably suffered some internal injuries. Then some small insect-like beasts climbed up the pit wall and attacked us. Because the space for action on the transport road was very limited, I had to block the beast, and the rest of the people dealt with the small beasts while retreating to the mine." At this point, the second princess sighed. The second princess was besieged by the alien beasts, and several people were directly trapped on the transport road. Although the transport road did not collapse because of the weight of several people and the big alien beast, it was still very difficult for several people to fight in such a limited position. The second princess was standing at the front. In terms of combat power, the second princess was naturally the strongest in the team, but even so, fighting with the large alien beast in the narrow space under her feet still did not get any advantage. The remaining few people were also very difficult to deal with the dense insect-shaped alien beasts like a tide because of their limited movement. In an instant, the group was trapped on the transport road and was in a dilemma. The huge number of alien beasts kept attacking everyone, and it was only a matter of time before they ran out of physical strength. Even in this situation, several people still fought hard. In anxiety, the second princess was careless when facing the alien beast. The alien beast swept the second princess's upper body with its forelimbs, and there was no chance to stand firm at that time. If you are hit by this attack, even if you are not injured, you will be blown away due to inertia. The result is that you will fall deep into the mine, and no one knows what is deep inside.
