Juliana’s workshop: The 34th Skeleton Group


   After separating from Hatchet’s friend, Chris continued to lead the team forward. Under the guidance of Chris, Marina and others continued to go deep. The underground river is like a blood vessel in the middle level, no matter where they go, they are all by their side, flowing quietly, and occasionally there will be strange and disturbing sounds in the water.

   People are creatures that easily adapt to the environment. Those who first came here are used to the sounds coming from the underground river. Occasionally there would be a few fish leaping out of the water and biting at the person closest to them, but it only made Ikoo and the others lift up their spirits and did not dare to relax.

   They soon came to a passage with a spiral staircase. The passage goes down vertically, and there are water drops in the hole above, but there is no way to go up. The ladder spirals down and can lead to deeper places. As for the underground river, just behind them, there is no river to flow forward. But at the end of the underground river, there is a gap downward, and the river water slopes down along the gap, like a drain, draining the water from the underground river. It’s just that the water in the underground river seems endless, and there is no sign of drying up.

   “Our trip is almost to the end.” The hatchet who walked down the spiral ladder at the end said to Marina in front, “If you go deeper, then you have to go by yourself.”

  ”This road is also quite safe.” Marina said, “Does it mean that if you go down a few steps after reaching the place we have said, you will encounter all kinds of dangers?”

   “Yes.” Short axe’s answer was straightforward, “You will understand when you get there, why I only walked there and won’t go any further.”

   Soon, Marina understood the meaning of Hatchet’s words, and he was indeed right.

   After leaving the spiral staircase, Marina felt like she had come to another world. A place as spacious as a square, a reservoir surrounded by a passage…or, in this specification, it should be called a reservoir. It was too big, it was as big as a lake, and the passage they walked was like a line around the circular lake. Around the lake, there are pipelines forming a circle, and there is a steady flow of water in the pipelines. It seems that this is the real end of the underground rivers.

   “Is this the underground lake…” Marina exclaimed, “I thought I was used to it, but there is something more exaggerated than I thought.” They are not far from the lake. If you look down from the side of the passage, you can clearly see the dark water surface. The surface of the water shimmered in the light of the fire. Lulunaka has not dared to approach the water for half a step, and Marina and Ikoo are not stupid enough to forget what just happened.

   “This is not the legendary underground lake, this is just a reservoir. This is the center of the middle level. All the underground rivers will flow here, and then flow out from here, instilling into every river.” Short Axe said, “Don’t ask me how this flowed back. I only know that the underground river has never dried up. There is only one reason that can be explained.”

   “I heard that there are some ancient creatures in this reservoir, they are regulating and underground river.” At this time Lulu Naka played a little bit of her own role, “I heard that someone tried to enter the lake, but …”

  Lulunaka glanced at the reservoir. The surface was calm, but occasionally something that could not be seen jumped out of the water. “I think it’s not a very good idea to swim here,” she said.

   “That’s right, people who go down will probably be gnawed until only a skeleton is left.” Hatchet said, “and then there are some things…”

   Something crawled out of the reservoir while he was talking. Not far from them, there is a passage that is submerged by shallow water, and there is zero-distance contact with the water of the reservoir nearby, and it can also be used as a place to enter the water-as long as someone is willing to go down. Right there, a pale white skeleton climbed up, and the clothes on his body had turned into torn cloth strips, revealing a crippled bone. Climbing up is not only a human-shaped skeleton, but also a short skeleton with a curved body. This small bone frame is probably small fangs, or it may be a dwarf.

   There are eight skeletons climbing up from the water. Water drops are dripping from the bones, and there are green gloomy lights in the eye sockets that have no eyeballs. Their bone frames made a kara sound, staggering like a baby who had just learned to stand, and then their pace stabilized, and they noticed the short axe and others not far away, located above.

   They are just a short distance away from them, and there is a sloping ramp.

   Hatchet gritted his teeth, “There are so many floating, more than usual.”

   “The water level here has also risen, they are very easy to come up.” Chris is at the forefront, and at this time he has quickly retreated~IndoMTL.com~ took out a small hammer. There is nothing more stupid than using a dagger to deal with a bone shelf, and the experienced Chris naturally prepared a weapon that is easy to carry and can effectively strike a skeleton. A small hammer with an awl at the front end can break any part of the skeleton with a single wave.

   There is no need to prepare more weapons for the short axe. His axe itself is a heavy iron block. As long as it can hit the skeleton, its power is no different from that of a hammer. “It’s hard to run past these tireless things if you run now, and they don’t have a sense of territory, they will only chase you until you die or it breaks.”

   Ikoo puts the shield in front of him again. His long sword doesn’t do much to these bones, but it’s better than nothing. It’s better than no weapon in hand—the skeletons are all holding rust on their hands. Of the weapons. If he is skilled in fighting, his shield can easily knock the skeletons apart.

   Marina held the magic book in her hand, and the skeletons not far away had already rushed over here. Some of them fell over because of the slippery ground, trampled by the same kind behind them, and then climbed again. Get up and continue to rush over here.

   Marina holding the magic book, stretched out her finger to point to the skeleton running here, “Freeze!”

   The skeleton running in the front froze in place, and a layer of ice scum appeared on the bones visible to the naked eye, spreading on their skeletons until they were frozen in place. The skeletons of these skeletons that have just crawled out of the water are covered with water, which makes Marina’s spells have a very good effect. If it is a living human or small fangs, her spells can only make them feel cold and stiff. The skeleton running in the front was frozen in place, and the rest continued to run over here.
