"Large phantom beast?"
In fact, they are no strangers to phantom beasts.
The most obvious example is that Athena is a phantom beast, and it is also very big.
Uh... It means that her body shape is very big.
But Athetana is probably different from the phantom beast that appears here. To be precise, Athetana's existence is relatively more special.
The Mother Goddess is a natural phantom beast born from the orc tribe. It is a phantom beast species native to this world. It is extremely rare in number. It is generally relatively independent. It lives in its own territory and can understand human nature.
Most of the other phantom beasts do not exist in this world. They will suddenly appear in some force fields affected by superiors, as if to indicate some kind of change in the world.
The current situation undoubtedly happened suddenly.
"I learned from the team that escaped that the source of the earthquake started there," Dundry said in a deep voice, "The atmosphere of the space there seems to have been rewritten."
Luo Wei nodded, "What's the situation on the ground?"
He saw on the way that the alliance had established communication nodes underground, probably to deal with this situation.
"Part of the streets in Crownless City collapsed, but the damage was lighter than expected," Dundry relayed the news from the communication. "Ryan is already rushing here. By the way, the battleships and the Silent Courtyard in the sky are Nothing happened.”
I see.
Luo Wei roughly clarified the current situation. There is a double-layer structure underground in Wuguan City. The zenith collapsed by the earthquake just now does not affect the support of the top structure of the upper layer. The load-bearing systems of the two are probably calculated separately.
The monster is hidden in the mezzanine. When activated, it can quickly occupy the underground waterway through the collapsed sub-layer ceiling, making it difficult to prevent.
From this point of view, Wuguan City even retained such a hand at the beginning of its design. But the other party probably didn't expect that the owners of the city were no longer them at this time, and the solid structure above also protected the current city from disaster.
"How about it?" Dundry said solemnly, lifting up the heavy knight's shield, "If you are willing to fight side by side with me, the knights of Cali Mountain will be your strongest backing."
"Huh? Fighting side by side?" Luo Wei looked at him blankly, "What fighting side by side?"
Dundry was stunned.
"Phantom beast?"
"What, you actually want me to deal with the phantom beast?!"
Dundry: "..."
Ayi Ningshuang saw it.
This guy is pretending to be stupid.
Dundry's expression froze. Considering that this person's behavior was unpredictable, he thought a little more about whether the other person was planning to solve the problem alone, so he made a request for assistance.
The result was unexpected...
It’s not that the other party doesn’t want to take him, it’s that he has no intention of going at all…
He put down the shield he was holding, with a rather complicated helplessness in his eyes. Tired, destroy it.
Seeing that his momentum collapsed, Luo Wei spread his hands and said, "Ryan will be here soon. You'd better leave your shield to him."
"Then what are you doing here?"
Dundry was curious and asked one more question.
He regretted it after asking.
Luo Wei moved a step closer to Ayi Ning and looked at him as he should.
"Why, can't you see it?"
"..."
Dundry led the people away with a dark face.
After the knights left, Ayi Ning stood there and glared at Luo Wei: "Have you learned to use me as a shield now?"
"Just tell me if I'm going to ask you out alone."
"..."
Ayi Ning didn't want to continue this topic.
What kind of relationship would lead to meeting in the sewer.
But she couldn't help laughing when she thought about the knight's reaction. The knight even told him about the situation of the battleship and the courtyard so that he could fight without any worries.
The result was...
The other party is probably wondering, why are you asking so many questions if you don't attack them...
"So, what's the reason for your decision?"
If the source of this incident is the phantom beast, there must be a reason for not solving it.
Luo Wei turned around and held her shoulders solemnly.
"What if, I mean what if, that phantom beast is an insect as big as a five-story building?"
"..."
Ayi Ning's face visibly stiffened.
"Then...you can't let it go! If you are just worried about me, then you don't..."
"Actually, I just think that the two of us are not safe enough," Luo Wei smiled, "The best way is to go back to the battleship and let everyone get off, but then the main force of the bright side has already arrived, so why not directly Leave it to them? Maybe the fight will be over by the time we arrive again."
"this……"
It does seem to make sense.
When facing these things, he behaved really soberly, and would not take responsibility and be led to act just because of a temporary response.
In my impression, no one seems to be able to scheme against him yet.
"Then...we just let it go?"
"When they are about to finish, you can go over and take a look at the situation, admire and learn from it," Luo Wei waved his hand, "Also, don't forget what we came here to do. The other party's actions are just to obstruct, what we have to do is It's business. Could it be that you really thought we were dating?"
"I didn't." Ayi Ning looked at him angrily, "I never thought that way, how could someone date in a place like the sewer, making it look like it was something invisible..."
"What's wrong?" Luo Wei smiled.
It's a shady relationship, right?
Isn’t this the perfect interpretation of their relationship with each other?
"Nothing at all!"
Luo Wei smiled and brushed the ends of her hair away from her face. In fact, there were more reasons why he didn't fight against the phantom beast.
Now that Ryan is on the road, he naturally has no intention of grabbing his side mission monster. He really needs to jump out to observe the situation and use the magic detector to see if there are any other abnormalities.
But the most important thing is.
It's not that you don't have confidence in your own strength, but it's better to be as low-key as possible during this period.
After all, he left a big gift for the goddess of mechanics.
After tidying up her sister's appearance and moving forward, Ayi Ning froze behind for a moment, then she thought of something and quickly caught up with him.
"You actually made up a five-story-high bug to scare me!"
…
The two of them used magic detectors to detect various areas of the underground waterway along the road.
There were reactions sometimes, but most of them were magical items carried by alliance members. They met the teams they had saved before one after another, and the two of them also received a lot of thanks along the way.
Ayi Ning felt helpless at these thanks.
Although he said that it was none of his business to do this or that, he still did not hesitate to stand up when others were in crisis.
It was only when someone came to carry out the subsequent crusade against the phantom beasts that he stayed out of it and seemed to ignore it.
Really are……
Rather than trusting others, it is more about being able to comprehensively judge the pros and cons of a situation.
"Can't this device still detect reactions deeper underground?" she asked.
The two of them had also walked around a lot. If there were no accidents, the main forces of each force should have arrived, but there seemed to be no progress on their side.
"Let's try this first. After all, we can't make improvements at hand."
This detector looks bulky, but it actually feels like a flashlight to Rowe.
Hold it and shine it on the ground. If there is a magic device hidden underneath, it will react and emit bright light.
When there was a reaction in the previous detection, it was all the result of him taking the detector to look at people, which at least proved that this was not a piece of scrap metal and wasted work.
The problem is the depth of detection.
The Artisans Guild arranged the phantom beasts here. It should actually be to move the ancient magic weapons here and then launch an offensive from underground to destroy the city. These things must be inseparable from the cooperation of magic devices. It can be said that there must be something here. existing.
Luo Wei also tried front, back, left, right, and even above, but to no avail. In order to facilitate hiding, the most likely option would be underground.
"drop--"
At this moment, the detector suddenly lit up and sounded a beep.
"This is……!"
Ayi Ning came over and saw the device in Luo Wei's hand pointing straight down.
In other words, they finally found the underground magical equipment.
Luo Wei used the detector to scan around the surrounding area, then moved it to the side to face the area where the reaction occurred. The result was that it was buried very deep.
"It seems that the luck is not too bad."
He smiled, and then looked at Ayi Ning, who was still stunned.
"Sister, you can start digging."
Ayi Ning: "..."
