The Giant Horn Cave is worthy of being the second largest cave in the empire. The cave is very spacious. The passages are as wide as the streets of Garin City and are more than 4 meters high.
The numerous caves are as small as the lobby of Rogge's villa dormitory, and the area is almost as large as the lobby of the Adventurer Association Building in Holk City.
Rogge and others didn't feel claustrophobic at all when they walked among them, and it was no problem for several people to walk side by side.
The area where you first entered the cave has been developed by the surrounding villagers, and the cave walls are illuminated by oil lamps. The lighting lamp uses special lamp oil, which has average brightness but is very long-lasting. Carts of different sizes can be seen on the passage floor from time to time.
Rogge's team followed the adventure group in front and walked to a wide cave. There are five passages connected in front of the cave. The passages are dark. It seems that the villagers' development of the cave has come to an end.
A man in the last group to arrive said: "There are five passages, and each of our five groups will explore one."
After saying this, without waiting for anyone to respond, the whole group walked into the passage on the far right.
The aristocratic team chose the passage in the middle. Before entering the passage, the fat Baron Beard turned around and glanced at Ophina and the other girls with a disgusting smile.
The first team to arrive at the entrance of the cave was called the Dawn Light Adventure Group, and they chose the second passage on the left.
Luoriya walked up to Rogge and said, "Little brother, we are about to separate here. The Big Horn Cave is complicated, and there will be a meeting place ahead. See you soon. If you meet that fat noble on the road, be careful."
Rogge nodded and watched the Ice and Snow Cold Front team enter the second passage on the right.
The leftmost passage was left. Rogge took a deep breath, raised the torch, and said to his friends: "Let's go."
The formation explored by Rogge's team had Lunt at the front, then Rogge, then Ophina and Madeleine, and finally Sonia.
As a defender, Lunt was naturally the first to go. Rogge needs to look ahead, make some decisions, and take the second one. The relatively safe position in the middle is reserved for the two mage girls, Ophina and Madeleine. Sonia, who is fast and has perfect perception and is not afraid of sneak attacks, takes the rear. The entire team is well-distributed and ready to fight.
The passage is deep and quiet, and the strange screams of unknown creatures can be heard from time to time in the depths, which seems a bit eerie. Rogge's team puts safety first and moves forward more slowly.
I don’t know how long it took, but after the team passed three small caves, Lunt, who was walking in the first one, made a discovery: "Roger, look quickly."
Rogge followed Lunt's direction and saw large blood stains on the cave wall. The blood was brown and had obviously dried. Rogge looked down again and found that there were blood stains on the ground, leading to the depths of the passage.
Rogge analyzed: "Looking at the distribution of blood stains on the stone wall, it was probably caused by a person hitting the wall at high speed. The drag marks on the blood stains on the ground were obvious, indicating that something dragged him away. Everyone cheered up, We are almost close to the monster."
Except for Rogge and Ofina, the other three people had never seen a living Warcraft, and they were all a little nervous, even the very nervous Lunt.
Rogge encouraged in a low voice: "Don't be so nervous. The blood-transformed monster is not that strong. Ofina and I can both face the ambush and counterattack. Now that we have five people, we will definitely win."
Sonia looked admiring. This was the first time she heard that the brother and sister had killed monsters.
Madeleine rolled her eyes slightly and thought: "The achievements of you two little perverts are not enough to comfort anyone."
Lunt remembered that all-wolf feast that he could never forget. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and muttered, "The demon wolf meat is really delicious."
"Big stupid bear knows how to eat. Let's go! Be serious, Warcraft is very powerful." Ofina didn't relax at all. She had experienced how terrifying Warcraft was. If Rogge was not present, she would not be a match for the mid-level blood-transformed demonic wolf if she fought alone.
The procession moved on, more slowly and cautiously than before.
After walking some distance along the blood trail, everyone saw a vague cave in front of them. An unpleasant smell wafted over. Roger realized something was wrong and pulled Lunt in front to stop moving forward.
Rogge took out a piece of fine cloth used to stop bleeding and gently tore it open and handed it to Ofina, who was frowning and pinching her little nose. Everyone also tore cloths to cover their mouths and noses, and extinguished the torches.
Rogge lowered his voice and said to everyone: "There must be something going on in the cave in front. I'll go investigate first. You guys wait for me here."
Sonia, who usually doesn't talk much, said: "I'll go."
Assassins move lightly and quietly, which is indeed more suitable than Rogge.
Rogge also thought of this, and without being pretentious, said to Sonia: "Okay, look carefully. If you are discovered, come to us immediately."
Sonia nodded, stood up gently, activated her martial arts skills to sneak forward slowly, and entered the cave without making a sound.
About 10 minutes later, Sonia came back quietly, and the assassin girl reported to Rogge in a low voice: "There are 6 lizards, one big one, they are all sleeping."
Rogge asked: "Is it about 2 or 3 meters long, with larger scales and large and sharp front claws?"
Sonia nodded.
Rogge said: "It's a cave monitor lizard. This lizard is a ferocious predator in caves. It usually attacks with fangs and claws. It has poor eyesight, average hearing, and a very strong sense of smell."
Madeleine asked: "How do we fight?"
Rogge thought for a few seconds and said: "Fortunately, they are sleeping, otherwise we would be discovered as soon as we get close, and we would have to fight head-on. Now we can first deal with the 5 ordinary cave monitor lizards, and then concentrate on killing the cave monitors." Demon lizard.”
"After we enter the cave, each of us will choose an ordinary lizard to attack. If we can kill it, kill it. If we can't kill it, try to make it incapacitated. Madeleine's lightning strike requires precise strikes, so use lightning strike as the weapon. Signal, the spell is activated before taking action."
"No matter what the outcome was after the attack, Lunt immediately went to resist the monster, mainly to contain it, while Nana and Madeline followed to help. Sonia and I first took care of the remaining ordinary monitor lizards, and then we all worked together to kill the monster. "
"If something unexpected happens, protect yourself. We have Nana here. As long as you don't die, you won't die. Remember?"
Everyone nodded.
"Let's go." Rogge ordered.
After Rogge and his teammates explained the tactics, everyone entered the cave very slowly and carefully.
Even with a fine cloth covering their mouths and noses, the smell in the cave was still very unpleasant, so everyone forced themselves to endure it and observe the situation.
The cave was not completely dark. The light from some fluorescent plants and the light leaking in from a few small holes in the cave roof were enough for Rogge and the others to see clearly what was going on inside the cave. Rogge first hid behind a big rock and then observed carefully.
He found that the cave was very large, more than half the size of the Adventurers Association Hall. The remains of various creatures are scattered on the floor of the cave, including several slightly fleshy human remains, which should have left blood stains outside the cave. The remains were mixed with monitor lizard excrement, exuding a disgusting smell.
5 cave monitor lizards and 1 cave monitor lizard are sleeping soundly at this time, the demon lizard is in the center, and the ordinary monitor lizards are scattered around them.
The size of the ordinary monitor lizard was just as Rogge expected, not out of the ordinary. The Cave Demon Lizard is a big guy, more than 5 meters long from head to tail. Its sharp front claws reflect the cold light and look extremely sharp. It was lying on the ground, breathing very heavily, spitting out its long scarlet tongue, and its huge body was very visually impactful.
Rogge bent his bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at the farthest monitor lizard, and began to accumulate power. The rest of the team also arrived at their respective positions, found their targets, and prepared to attack.
Lunt drew out a throwing gun and aimed at the monitor lizard closest to him, preparing to throw. Sonia quietly sneaked up to a giant lizard, paying attention to Madeline's spell, ready to attack at any time. Ofina has summoned the Sword of Light, and six lightsabers are floating beside her, aiming at the target.
At this time, Madeleine's lightning strike technique was finally ready. She stretched out her finger, and the violent lightning strike was activated, striking the giant lizard with great power.
The lightning strike spell is indeed the most damaging first-level magic. The giant lizard let out a shrill scream, and its body was instantly ripped open by the powerful lightning strike, and one of its front legs was blown away. The monitor lizard lay on the ground and twitched twice, dying.
At the same time that Madeline released the lightning strike technique, the other four also launched attacks.
Rogge's attack worked first. The charged arrow is extremely fast and has extremely strong penetrating power, and it can hit the farthest cave giant lizard in an instant. The arrow penetrated the scales on the side of the monitor lizard, pierced the heart and penetrated deeply, leaving only the arrow feathers outside. The monitor lizard was awakened by the thunder and just opened its eyes before moving, and then it died with its eyes open.
Lunt also threw the gun immediately. The strong Sakdoman was very powerful, and Lunt's physical fitness reached the level of an intermediate warrior. The spear he threw roared into the body of the giant lizard, causing the heavy lizard's body to tilt. Lunt didn't care whether it was alive or dead, and rushed directly towards the cave lizard that had woken up with his shield.
Sonia on the other side jumped up and launched a painful stab. The goblin dagger directly penetrated the most vulnerable part of the monitor lizard's neck. The monitor lizard roared in pain and twisted its body violently. Sonia held down the handle of the dagger with her right hand, took out a military standard dagger with her left hand, stabbed it into the monitor lizard's eye socket with all her strength, and then rotated and stirred it. The monitor lizard struggled less vigorously, and then stopped breathing.
Ofina also quickly solved her target. The defense of the scales of ordinary cave monitors is not enough to protect against the second-level magic sword of light. With six lightsabers, Ophina's skillful operation can kill the monitor lizard with just a few moves.
Of the 5 ordinary cave monitor lizards, 4 died and 1 was seriously injured. This allowed Rogge's team to fight against the demon lizards without interference and gain a numerical advantage.
Rogge turned to the giant lizard that had just struggled to get up after being hit by Lunt's gun and roared with its mouth open, and shot an arrow through its throat. Then Rogge looked at the demon lizard and found that its powerful and huge tail was sweeping toward Lunt with thunderous force.
Lunt held onto the shield tightly and channeled his strength into his feet, trying to withstand the tail blow.
The lizard's tail hit the shield with an explosive sound. Lunt used his skills to release the force, and then was whipped away.
