Chapter 124: Mutated Cave

Seeing that the previous attack was effective, Thor threw out two more arrows.

The sharp sword penetrated into the shrinking cave and disappeared. Soon, green slime began to flow out again.

The suction from the cave gradually weakened.

Thor breathed a sigh of relief.

His Soul Worm was constructed with soul fragments full of regrets, and he didn't want to use it more than necessary.

Now that there are three seniors here, Thor doesn't need to work too hard.

Sure enough, just as Thor withstood the attack from the mutated crypt, the battle between the three people over there ended.

Two more spikes emerged from the ground, obliquely inserted into the mountain wall opposite Thor, and penetrated the cave in front of Thor from the side.

The underground cave contracted violently twice and finally closed completely.

After staring at the cave for a long time and seeing that there was no change, Thor turned around.

He saw Light raised his eyebrows at him, and knew that the ground spike he was holding now and the two ground spikes that finally solved the mutated crypt were all helped by Light, so he hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you, Senior Wright."

Wright looked relaxed, and it was obvious that the battle just now was nothing to him.

"You're welcome. If you get sucked in, we'll have to find a way to pull you out. Haha, it would be bad if you got pulled out. We'd lose a great guide."

Not knowing what he was thinking about, Wright made himself laugh out loud.

At this time, all the abnormal crypts had been closed. Thor then discovered that this was not a fork in the road, but just a relatively wide passage.

There are only two roads here, front and back, and the rest of the tunnels and caves are all fake.

"What kind of monster is this? It's disguised so well." Bill stepped on the foam on the ground. The foam had now solidified into something as solid as plaster, and it fell to the ground with every step.

"There is no record of this kind of monster in the past. Maybe it is a new phenomenon that has mutated in the past one or two years." Byron said in a deep voice.

Byron checked several closed mutant caves but failed to find any useful loot.

He stood up and clapped his hands. "It's getting late. I suggest we go back to the ground first."

Bill uttered a "tsk".

"We didn't get much this time. It takes a lot of time to go in and out. We might as well stay here overnight."

Byron shook his head. "It's too dangerous to spend the night in a place haunted by evil spirits."

But looking at Bill's expression, you can tell that he won't compromise easily this time.

Thor was still holding Light's ground spike to support him, hiding behind and watching the fun.

Anyway, as a second-level apprentice, he is not qualified to participate in the discussion of such strategic decisions.

As Thor watched the heated argument about to ignite, another large hole suddenly opened in the wall on his side.

"Sha——"

A chilly and icy breath seeped out.

But before Thor was touched by the cold air, he turned his head sharply and noticed the big hole that opened silently on his side.

At the same time, a pale, riddled human head suddenly shot out of the hole and bit Thor's right hand, which he raised subconsciously.

The long chestnut hair was scattered messily on the head, and the whites of the eyes without pupils stared at Thor through the gaps in the hair.

His face was full of holes like a honeycomb, and his mouth was the largest hole on his face. Sharp teeth protruded from the hole, but they could not bite through Thor's gloves.

There was no pain in his right hand, but Thor still felt a strong pulling force.

The moment the head bit Thor, it immediately retreated, as if trying to pull Thor into the big hole that had just opened.

Thor was pulled by the opponent's huge force, his body shook violently, and he quickly held the ground spike tightly with his left hand again to avoid being dragged in.

"Bang!"

Thor's face changed, and under the huge pulling force, he heard the sound of his bones disjointed.

Everything happened in a flash, and at this time Byron's support finally arrived.

A huge net appeared out of nowhere and immediately covered the head full of holes.

The heads were bound.

Under the pressure of the giant net, the flesh made a sizzling sound as it was grilled.

It finally gave in with some pain.

Only then did Thor save his right hand.

But his right hand was completely powerless at this time, probably because the bone was broken, so he could only support it with his left hand.

The head of the opponent was about to be pulled out by Byron with the giant net, but suddenly he took the initiative to tear off his neck.

The back half of the body that was not caught by the giant net shrank back quickly.

Seeing that the big hole was about to close, Byron jumped in without saying a word.

At the critical moment, Wright raised his hand, and a huge stone hand appeared from the ground, propping up the mutated cave and preventing it from closing.

Thor looked worriedly at the big hole that was trying to close, wondering if Senior Byron could come back safely.

"Broken?" Bill suddenly appeared behind Thor, scaring him.

"Maybe it's just a dislocation..." Thor's heart skipped a beat and he slightly retracted his left hand.

But Bill had a smile on his face and pulled Thor's arm forcefully.

A sharp pain immediately came from the elbow.

Thor's face twitched, but he endured the pain and didn't cry out.

Bill opened his mouth and a puff of white smoke came out, covering Thor's right elbow, and soon the pain there disappeared.

Bill tore off Thor's gloves and saw the gray, transparent skin on Thor's forearm and the faintly exposed bones underneath.

He raised an eyebrow and lifted Thor's arm, flipping it back and forth.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Your modified arm is quite strong. Even after being bitten like that, there is not even a scratch left."

The place where Thor was injured was not the arm that was bitten, but the joint where the skin and upper arm were connected, which was pulled apart.

After checking, Bill finally let go of Thor's arm and threw the glove to him again.

Thor caught the glove with his left hand and simply put it in his pocket without even putting it on.

"Your gloves aren't very strong. If you want, you can go to the exchange meeting and exchange them for stronger gloves."

"I'll go check it out if I get a chance."

Thor didn't want Bill to notice the special properties of his gloves, so he responded casually.

He lowered his head to examine his right hand. His right hand was now able to move freely. It seemed that Bill was really treating his injuries instead of simply anesthetizing him.

I didn't expect this guy to be a healer.

At this time, Byron finally ran out of the cave. Seeing this, Wright withdrew his stone hand, and the big hole closed instantly.

"How is it?" Wright leaned over.

Byron had a slight smile on his face. He picked up a glass bottle with a round bottom and a thin neck and changed it in front of everyone.

"Evil spirit?" This time even Bill walked over.

"An evil spirit that is transforming, but in essence it is still a vengeful spirit."

The bottle was gray and Thor couldn't see what was inside.

"Ghost? That's fine too."

Although it is not the evil spirit that Byron’s mission target, a vengeful spirit like this one that has begun to transform is also of high value.

It would be good to take it back to the wizard tower in exchange for credits and money, or to keep it and do research on your own.

And if what Byron catches is not an evil spirit, then it will be the team's gain, and Bill and the others will also be able to share the money.

Wright clapped his hands. "That's good. We have gained a lot today. We can go back now."

This time Bill didn't object.

Byron put away the bottle and walked over to Thor.

"How's your arm?"

"Senior Bill treated me and I'm fine now." Thor said as he raised his right arm and shook it, but he mainly wanted to let Senior Byron examine it.

They cleaned up the scene again and made sure there was nothing else found before returning the same way.

The most difficult part of the way back was that very deep passage.

Wright and Bill both had their own ways of getting up, but Byron gave up on turning into a balloon and just let Thor use the algae to pull him up.

Xiaozao is very strong and can easily pull two people.

As he was climbing up the passage, Thor felt something in his heart and looked down.

Because of the loss of light, the underground passage became dark again, and the sound of flowing water could be heard.

Thor had an illusion that someone was constantly pouring water into this underground passage.

The water level gradually rose, chasing the footsteps of the crowd.

Night is coming.

Just like the Wizard Tower, the underground of Chuishou Valley at night may also turn into another world.
