Chapter 187 Discovery

Chapter 187 Discovery
Following the traces of magic flowing down the river, Ye Tianyu and Yan Xiaoyu soon found a small cave in the mound.

The mounds that are only a few meters high cannot really be called the title of "mountain".

The river slides down from this mound, but there is no rushing water like a waterfall in the usual impression, but it flows slowly down a gentle slope.

The place where the mound was close to the river happened to have a deep and narrow hole. Looking in from the outside, there was no way to fully see what was inside the hole.

Ye Tianyu stopped not far from the cave, with a solemn expression as if something important was about to happen, and Yan Xiaoyu beside him couldn't help but raise his vigilance.

"The clues are broken, and there are no traces of spells left." Ye Tianyu took a deep look into the cave, like a Taoist priest who subdued demons and demons came to the lair of demons, trying to see through the layers of rock walls to see what was inside. What kind of monster is entrenched and sucking flesh and blood.

Yan Xiaoyu also followed Ye Tianyu's gaze. Like the latter, he didn't see anything, but this did not affect the deep fear in his eyes.

"Is this where the caster lives?"

Ye Tianyu pondered for a while, and then carefully checked the environment around the entrance of the cave. His eyes lit up and he seemed to find something. He walked forward quickly, came to the entrance of the cave and squatted down, observing something carefully.

Yan Xiaoyu shook his head, and hurriedly followed.

Taking a closer look, Yan Xiaoyu discovered that Ye Tianyu was observing the ground in front of him.

The ground is dark brown soil. It can be seen that due to the proximity to the river, the soil here is fertile and moist.

Rivers always wash down all kinds of useful and useless things, including the fertilizers needed by plants, and finally pile up into this soil.

But the strange thing is, except for the piece of soil in front of Ye Tianyu, the rest of the surrounding areas are all light green lawns.

Most of the lawn is full of weeds, without the influence of human factors, the vitality of these weeds is much stronger than that of other plants, and the only ones occupying this fertile territory next to the river are these tenacious plants like "Little Strong" .

There are lawns all around, only this area seems to have been turned upside down, exposing the dark brown soil underneath, no wonder Brother Ye came here the first time.

Ye Tianyu checked for a while, then stood up, and said very firmly:

"Now it is basically certain that this is not a place for the caster to rest temporarily, but rather an ambush point. It should be that caster ambushing some people."

Yan Xiaoyu asked puzzledly: "Brother Ye, how do you know? Just rely on this piece of mud?"

Ye Tianyu casually took off the big sword behind him, and casually turned over the soil: "Maybe you didn't see it for a while, but as long as you look carefully, you can find that this piece of soil is actually the result of the explosion."

After all, Ye Tianyu used the big sword as a shovel to shovel up a small piece of soil, and gave Yan Xiaoyu a look.

"Come and see for yourself."

Yan Xiaoyu looked curious, and squatted down to observe the shoveled soil carefully.

Soon, he discovered that there was a little bit of charred carbon in the soil.

It's like a little bit of embers left over from a barbecue in the wild after a few days, and it's impossible to find it without careful inspection.

"This is?"

"A type of explosion spell, although I don't know what type of spell it is, but it is related to the powerful spell of explosion. This spellcaster also has at least a fourth-level strength, most likely a fifth-level, and a sixth-level possibility. lowest."

Ye Tianyu looked at the deep cave in front again, thought for a while and said uncertainly:
"The explosion, coupled with the spell released in front of the cave, is likely to be a spell trap. Maybe the caster is ambushing the enemy in the cave, and then set up the spell explosion trap in advance, and wait until the enemy comes out."

"Bang!" Ye Tianyu's lips moved slightly to imitate the sound of an explosion.

Yan Xiaoyu was also silent, and asked after a while: "In other words, it is possible that not only a spell caster but also humans from other worlds came to Blue Star?"

No matter how he looks or thinks, he doesn't think that a high-level spell caster will go to set up an ambush alone, and his (her) enemy cannot be alone.

Although he is not as knowledgeable as Lin Yuan, and he does not have Ye Tianyu's bug-cheating learning, Yan Xiaoyu has read many books related to spellcasters.

This kind of book, which is equivalent to popular science and introduces the situation of Fein's big plane, is actually not boring to read. After all, it is the human geography of another world, which will always make people curious to read on.

It is impossible for a spellcaster who has not reached the sixth level or above to have the melee power to compete with fighters of the same level.

The upgrade of a spellcaster mainly depends on the level of spells the caster has mastered. How many levels of spells can be used is the level of the spellcaster.

As for the other ranks, there are strict advancement standards. Physical fitness is the standard for the first three ranks, and after that, the fourth ranks choose which specialties they choose, and the fifth ranks master which basic extraordinary abilities.

That is to say, if the spell caster has not reacted, even a lower level person may kill the spell caster on the spot!

Therefore, for the sake of their own safety, spellcasters will have teammates to protect them, and the rich and powerful can directly hire adventurers and mercenaries as bodyguards.

Facing Yan Xiaoyu's question, Ye Tianyu nodded and replied directly: "According to common sense, this is the most reasonable guess."

"Besides, I think I should know what kind of equipment the person being ambushed has."

Ye Tianyu suddenly walked into the cave in the mound, and picked up something on the ground next to the entrance of the cave.

After watching carefully for a while, Ye Tianyu threw it to Yan Xiaoyu.

Yan Xiaoyu took a look and found that it was an iron ring with a fracture, and the iron ring was pitch black as if it had been roasted by fire.

"This iron ring should be a part of the chain mail iron ring, and it is very well made. It was only broken by a close-range explosion."

"The person who was ambushed should be an adventurer with a lot of spare money. His profession should be a warrior or knight. He can be an enemy of that mysterious spellcaster. His level should be around the fourth or fifth level."

Speaking of this, Ye Tianyu couldn't help but smiled: "I didn't expect to find so many discoveries just by following the traces of the white python. It seems to be a surprise."

Yan Xiaoyu listened carefully from the side. In his opinion, there was nothing wrong with Ye Ge's analysis, and all the analysis was reasonable.

"Then how was the white python attacked by that spellcaster? Did it run into an ambush by a mysterious spellcaster?"

Ye Tianyu shook his head, "I don't know, there are no other traces at the scene."

"However, I guess that the white python should just pass by here. After all, the magic power left behind after setting up magic traps will always attract some unsuspecting monsters to come to explore. They have intelligence but not high intelligence. They will always think that it is someone Some treasures of heaven and earth were born."

Just like the unknowing crowd eating melons. Yan Xiaoyu suddenly thought of this.

"If I were that spellcaster, I wouldn't be able to set up traps only at the entrance of the cave, but in multiple places!"

"The white python was most likely injured by other traps. The magic trap has no magic power to maintain it, and its power will gradually decrease. When the unknowing white python comes over, its power is not enough to instantly kill the white python with fourth-level strength. gone."

Ye Tianyu smiled again, "If it weren't for this situation, I really can't think of the means by which the giant white python escaped from the hands of a high-level spellcaster."

Yan Xiaoyu finally understood all the situation, and said with admiration: "Brother Ye is awesome, you can analyze so much information just from these few situations."

Having said that, he paused for a while, and suddenly asked: "Then what are we going to do next? Should we continue to look for the mysterious spellcaster?"

Ye Tianyu walked out of the cave to look at the sky, thought for a while and said, "Forget it, it's impossible to find it again, all the clues have been broken, and it's getting late."

Keeping the big sword hanging behind his back, Ye Tianyu said:
"Continue to complete our main task, as far as we can go before dark, it would be even better if we can find a place to rest."

"What about the depths of the cave? Shall we go in and have a look?" Yan Xiaoyu pointed to the entrance of the cave and asked.

Ye Tianyu waved his hand, "It's probably just a resting place for the enemy of the caster. If you feel worried, you can go in and have a look. I'll wait for you here."

Yan Xiaoyu hesitated for a while, then nodded, and trotted into the cave.

After a while, he came out and shook his head: "As you said, there is nothing inside."

Ye Tianyu nodded slightly, "Let's go."
