Chapter 199: Something
Under the leadership of Felston and others, Gris and his party went deep into the land of sinking from a cave behind the city of sinking.
The cave groups that are hundreds of kilometers long and complex intricate cave directions are easily lost without the guidance of people familiar with the terrain, and they will never get out of it. Even an old lich like Felston who has lived here for thousands of years cannot guarantee that she will not be able to get out of it after she gets lost.
But Gris was not worried. He had a bunch of teleportation scrolls that could teleport out a team of less than 80 people here at any time.
The River of Rebirth is an underground river that originates directly from the West Wind Mountains. No one knows where it flows. Its water volume is several times larger than the Manderson River, the largest river on the ground. In such a complex and large drop environment underground, the flow rate is very fast. If it falls inside, it is easy to be rolled to some unknown place.
Under the leadership of Felston, Gris and his group kept going down through the bend cave. Walking in front were zombies such as Steel Teeth, holding several magic crystal lights in their hands. The soft light enveloped the team in front.
Of course, undead creatures like Gris do not need lighting. Their soul fire can see things clearly even in the darkest environment. However, there are not only undead creatures in the team, such as Abak, Emine, and Jimmy, which are much more convenient to move when lighting is available.
However, the magic crystal lighting is not a cheap thing. All items that use magic crystals are not affordable for ordinary people, thanks to the 50,000 gold coins allocated by the magician group.
Felston looked at it, and of course a magic crystal lamp was nothing, but this skeleton was so luxurious that it used magic crystals to illuminate it. It was just a torch that could illuminate it. Why use magic crystals? Only when the materials were extremely abundant can there be this capital to waste.
The materials in the City of Desolation are not abundant. They lack manpower and cannot mine mineral deposits on a large scale. Some necessities must be exchanged through the Huangling Village and the human world. The cost of channels makes the prices extremely high. If it were not for the underground cavemen tribes to provide them with food, the residents of the City of Desolation would have a problem with their meals.
So Gris's behavior, which was not a luxury, made Felston jealous.
After realizing this, Felston looked at other people and then realized that he was staying among a group of rich people.
Let’s not talk about the magic armor on Gris and Emina. It is a priceless treasure that even if you have money, it is a growing top armor. Just talking about the two axe hammers on Little Jimmy’s hand is already the best, especially the huge magic crystal at the end of the axe, which is better than the amplification magic crystal used by his staff. It’s really jealous.
If it weren't for local residents like Felston, the forks alone would have knocked people out. Walking along the way, turning through winding caves, passing through one fork after another, and finally entering an open area.
There is an alluvial plain where the river of rebirth flows through. After the river of rebirth passes here, the flow rate slows down. The mud and sand it carries are deposited, and over the years, a plain that is beyond the edge is formed. When this is the only difference from the plain on the ground, every distance, a huge stone pillar connects the ground to the top of the cave, supporting the rock formation above.
On the alluvial plains, a very fat plant, one meter tall, four or five meters in diameter, emits a faint glow. Around these glowing plants, wet moss grows wherever the light can reach.
Among these plants, some small animals with strange shapes and cannot be named after them, relying on glittering plants and mosses to make a living, forming a complete ecological chain.
Seeing that there were creatures living tenaciously in this dark environment, little Jimmy couldn't help but be surprised: "These flowers grow so big, they can still shine. They can grow so big without sunshine and rain. They are so tenacious."
Emina chuckled slightly, looked at Gris, then turned to Jimmy and said, "Life is very tenacious. In the demon world and the abyss world, even in lava and ice, life can grow up sturdyly. The environment here is already very good compared to those extreme situations. What really makes life wither is the breath of death, all planes, and only the world of death is without life."
Although it is pitch black, it is absolutely not drought. The river of rebirth contains a lot of water, which leads to a lot of humidity here, and the plants and mosses are filled with a lot of dewdrops. Compared with the extreme environments of the Demon Realm and the Abyss World, this place is much better. Even in the world of death, where no grass grows, there are demon lotus that relies on flesh and blood to make a living.
"Ah?! Can lava and ice grow plants?" Little Jimmy was frightened by Emina's words. However, when he turned around and saw the disregarded expressions of Abakpurson and others, he remembered that he was staying among a group of inhuman creatures. It was a very shocking thing for him, and it might be common for them. Realizing this, Little Jimmy couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Seeing his expression, Gris took out a magic fire grass and handed it over. This magic fire grass grew up in an environment with extremely strong fire elements. Although it did not grow in lava like Emina said, it was not much different.
"What a pure magical plant, it is almost the assembly of fire elements." Felston's eyes lit up.
Such a pure magical plant can only grow in some extreme environments. There are too few environments in the human world, so correspondingly, the number of such magical plants is very rare. Just such a magical grass can be sold for a lot of money in the Alchemy Association.
"Thank you, teacher." Little Jimmy happily took the magic fire grass and carefully kept it in close proximity. When she wanted to say something, Gris suddenly stopped and raised his hand and made a quiet gesture.
Those undead creatures who have soul connections with him do not need to communicate with each other with gestures. He made this gesture to inform Emine and Jimmy, who have no soul connections with him.
The group stopped and fell into silence, so quiet that they could hear the surging water of the River of Rebirth in the distance and the heartbeats of Little Jimmy and Abak. As for the reason why they couldn't hear Emina was because she could control her heartbeat at will, it would be fine to hold her breath for a short time.
As soon as the sound of quieted down, the sounds around suddenly became clear, and in the surging sound of water, there seemed to be a rustling sound of footsteps.
Although this plain is very wide in area, it has a large number of huge stone pillars supporting rock formations, so its vision is very limited.
The rustling footsteps came from behind a stone pillar with a diameter of more than 30 meters two kilometers away. In this sealed environment, a little sound could be heard very far.
