I don't know if it's in conflict with the earthquake, An Yizhi often encounters natural disasters such as earthquakes, and every time he encounters an earthquake, he will be unlucky.

From the trial of the Starry Tower to the present. From multiverse dungeons to temporary dungeons, to unscheduled dungeons, earthquakes are often encountered, which makes An Yizhi feel the malice of the world......

- Shouldn't it have something to do with the attributes of where he goes?

Then again, even in the dark areas deep underground, is it really okay for earthquakes to be so frequent?

In fact, this is an unheard of, the dark area is not only full of earthquakes, but also the intensity is considerable, otherwise how did those natural caves that open and close from time to time come to form?

In Viconia's words, today's two earthquakes were small in size and intensity, and sometimes even magma erupted together if you were unlucky.

She tells the story of how their settlement encountered magma when they were young, which forced them to abandon their otherwise safe place and find a new place to move, perhaps because of this, they were found by the dark elves who believed in the spider goddess and were hunted down by their kind.

However, there is no need to worry about this in big cities, which have long been reinforced by magic or magic, and the naturally formed magma will not erupt from the city, at most it will be outside the city, leaving time for residents to escape.

What made An Yi's three views even more refreshed was that there was actually a huge volcanic group underground, not only that, but also creatures living nearby, such as fire giants.

Sure enough, they can't measure the three views of underground creatures from the perspective of surface creatures, and in their opinion, earthquakes of this magnitude are as trivial as occasional cloudy days on the surface.

However, the topic of volcanoes has piqued Viconia's interest:

"Are there volcanoes on the surface of the earth too? Will the eruption cause volcanic ash? The surface is so large, no amount of volcanic ash should have any effect, right? Ann Yizhi has you ever seen an active volcano erupt? The book says it's spectacular, with huge mushroom-like clouds reaching into the sky...... What do clouds look like? An Yi pointed to you talking, you talking, you talking. ”

An Yi fingered: "......"

I don't know if it was a mistake to sign a contract with Viconia for the key to the dwarven treasury......

After this period of getting along, An Yizhi has more or less found some ways to communicate with the chatter, that is, ignore her, and it won't be long before she quiets down on her own, if you arouse her interest......

Then there is a chat.

So Ann patted the dust on his robe with a finger and turned his head to see where he was.

It looks like a structure resembling a tower, with a wide staircase on the left-hand side, spiraling upwards to a height of several hundred meters, and the dome is not even visible to An's eyesight.

On the right hand side is a cave, which should not be artificially made, because An Yizhi has not seen any traces of carving, which is simply impossible for the ancient elves, who have already integrated artistic cells into every living utensil.

The cave is tilted about thirty degrees, in the lower right, and it seems that there is a twist in the place where it is connected, and the inside of the cave cannot be seen from here.

Behind them was the passage they had entered, which was now completely blocked by rubble, and there was no way out at all.

If only An Yi pointed at himself, he didn't have to worry about being trapped here, the big deal was almost to explore, try a burst of magic, it was best to blast it away, and if it didn't open, it would be nothing if he died back to Ikasha City with the harvest.

But Viconia can't, because of the contract, if you want to keep what you get from the dwarven treasury, you have to let Viconia reach the surface safely.

However, it is still too early to say that you are trapped, after all, there are two paths to explore in front of you, and you may be able to find another exit.

As for which one......

Ann pointed to the fork in the road, figuring out what to do.

Walk down the apparently naturally formed cavern below and find an exit to the outside world, but the tunnels beneath the dark terrain are complex, meaning that the tunnels are like labyrinths......

The other way up is obviously in the style of the ancient elven ruins, and if you continue to explore, you may find something good. This is not within the agreement of Viconia, everything you get is Ann's finger.

After a little thought, he decided to find his way out and secure his escape route first.

Due to the earthquake, the passage to enter the ancient elf ruins has been completely blocked, and he doesn't have to worry about players coming to compete with him.

"Master, look ahead."

As soon as she made up her mind, Hela whispered in Ann's ear:

"There's some writing on the wall."

Following Hela's guidance, he saw that there were indeed some inconspicuous marks on a relatively straight rock at the fork in the road, not only because of the time that had blurred them, but also because of the damp and humid environment of the ruins, which had also caused a thick layer of moss to be pasted on it.

This is what Hela can see, which is easy to use, and Ann Yizhi didn't notice the words on it.

The handwriting and even the symbols in the ruins could be clues, and there is a high probability that they should not be easily ignored, although they may not necessarily help in the next adventure.

By the way, there are also dungeon builders who did the opposite, deliberately leaving traps on the handwriting and symbols.

It can be said that the contest between adventurers and dungeons is basically the meaning of routines and anti-routines.

Exhaling out of the void and hugging the big shield, in response to the danger that may arise at any time, An Yiyi took out a large brush and vigorously brushed off the moss that was pasted on the wall, revealing a corner.

It was a geometric figure, a bit like one side of a triangle, surrounded by a circle of small characters, but too small and too vague to be illegible.

After waiting for a few seconds before triggering the trap, Ann continued to repeat the work of brushing the moss until the figure hidden behind the moss was fully revealed.

It was a symbol made up of three triangles, which looked a bit like a nuclear, biochemical marker, but the triangles were arranged in a different way, and they tended to be arranged in parallel.......

This thing looks familiar!

"It's a sign of Varek!"

It's no wonder that the staff of the Two-Faced One in An's hand was found in the last resting place of Vaolek, and as the first epic item he acquired, Anyizhi still remembers the process of obtaining the staff of the two-faced.

"This was built by Vanilek too? This product shouldn't be a contractor, right? ”

"No, this is indeed the remains of the Ancient Elves."

Viconia didn't know who Vaolek was, but she could tell when it was built from the surrounding stones:

"It's at least tens of thousands of years old here, and at that time, only ancient elves, humans, and dwarves could build huge buildings, and the latter two couldn't make such exquisite and sturdy stone carvings that would not be damaged for tens of thousands of years."

Dragons don't know how to build, and during the period of the ancient elves and dragons, humans built huge palaces and cities to support dragons.

In other words, this is indeed the remains of the ancient elves.

Then why is there a Valolek logo?

"It's supposed to be a magic mark, and the traveling mages who often go out on adventures always leave this every time they find some ruins or dungeons or something like that."

The magic mark is a pattern that represents a mage, and the player mage doesn't pay much attention to this, and the NPC mage has its own exclusive badge, and when you see the badge, you know who the mage is, such as the pattern on Ann's forehead, and those who know it know that he has something to do with Nikolai.

If it's really hard to understand, I've always seen Harry Potter, those troublesome Death Eaters will always leave a dark mark in the sky every time they finish a big news, and the reason is the same.

In other words, this is a bit immoral, just like going to the scenic spot and leaving 'so-and-so to visit here' on the wall.

"We weren't the first visitors to the Ancient Elven Ruins."

Hela Says:

"Master, look at the president of Vaolek, there are still many small badges."

After listening to Hela's reminder, Ann Yizhi noticed that under the most conspicuous Vaolek badges, there were more than a dozen small badges densely packed with more than a dozen sizes, if each of them represented a mage, there were at least a dozen adventurer squads that had been here for more than a thousand years since Vaolek.

This discovery was like a bucket of cold water poured down from his head, and Ann's heart for treasure hunting was extinguished.

Even if those squads are all NPCs, how many things you can find really depends on fate. The only consolation is the Mystery Core, I hope I can find it.

Dividing line

Leaving that fork in the road, due to the large number of magic that left marks on it, An Yizhi greatly lost his desire to explore the ruins of the ancient elves, and by the way, he also determined the idea of giving priority to ensuring the exit.

There has been magic lighting in the ruins of the ancient elves for a long time, and although you can see some of the failures, it can only be said that this is unscientific but magical.

However, the road they are going to now is obviously a naturally formed cave, and there is naturally no magic lighting or anything, so An Yizhi had to add the Demon Eye to himself to obtain the ability of dark vision, and for the sake of safety, he also maintained the operation of the Dancing Light Technique.

Viconia didn't need that, she had dark vision herself, and she could see clearly by the faint phosphorescent light of the glowing moss in the cave.

After passing through the hole that was only about three or five meters wide, and walking forward about ten meters along the tunnel turn, what appeared in front of An Yizhi and Viconia was a vast underground cavity.

It may not seem appropriate to describe a large cave as vast, but the size of this underground cave is indeed worthy of the word 'vastness'.

As far as the eye can see, you can't see where the edge is, not even Hela.

However, this underground cavity is not suitable for urban settlements, not to mention whether there is a water source nearby, the height of the cave is too low, at most thirty meters high, and this cavity is full of huge potholes with a diameter of more than ten meters or even more than twenty meters.

An Yizhi didn't study geology, and he really couldn't imagine what kind of geological movement would lead to the formation of such a landform.

But it's not so important, what matters is, is there an exit to the outside world?
