The camera turns back to the cheese group. With the help of the Earth Spirit, the mage and others enter the cave along a road that has never been found before. The Earth Spirit''s eyes allow them to see things in the dark, but humans can''t. So in order to light up the cave, cheese took a small stone from one bag, took some white powder from another, and sprinkled the powder on the stone and rubbed it for a while. Soon, the humble stone began to emit a steady white light, its brightness comparable to that of a torch.

    "The phosphorite plus the powder on the wings of the white feather butterfly glows under mild heat." The mage explained to the others. People were surprised to see that the stone, which was very common, turned into a stable light source in the cheese hand. The daring Hahn reached out to touch the magic stone.

    "Be careful. It''s hot." But the boar''s fingers had touched the surface of the stone, and he let out a grunt, and quickly drew his hand back, as if he had touched an iron pot filled with boiling water.

    Cheese wrapped Elsa''s hand with a wet cloth and inserted the glowing stone into a stick that was also wrapped in wet cloth. Then give the stick to Mona, and she''ll be responsible for lighting up.

    "In fact, the stone glows because it burns slowly. So it emits as much heat as it emits Said the mage. But for others, cheese''s explanation is superfluous. They can''t understand why a stone glows, and naturally they don''t believe it''s actually burning.

    "The wizard''s trick." Hahn rubs his slightly burned finger and mutters. This sentence almost became his mantra. In fact, the three frost guards, besides Elsa, were surprised and awed by the magical knowledge and deeds of the mage. In their opinion, what the mage did could not be combined with common sense. This mysterious feeling not only made people respect, but also made them have a strange estrangement from cheese.

    Seeing that cheese and others are ready, the land elves begin to urge them to go on the road. The dark cave can not affect these little guys at all, and the bats and other animals that live in the cave also choose to ignore the visit of cheese and others because of the existence of these land spirits.

    "Be careful." Cheese pulled the landlady to avoid the stalagmite falling down in front of her. As a matter of fact, not only the top of the cave, but also the texture of the cave gradually changed from rough rock to fine texture with the gradual deepening of the whole cave. Dense stalagmites occupy the corner of the cave, and some luminous mushrooms also appear from time to time in the view of the group.

    "I can''t believe it. The largest fortress of the Legion is less than one tenth of that here. " Mona, the female soldier, tries to lift the Lightstone in her hand, but she still can''t reach the boundary of the cave. For the frost guards who regard Longji mountain as part of their own territory, this huge cave in the remnant of Longji mountain is incredible.

    Several people followed the earth spirits to the interior of the cave. They saw that the size of the cave was changing without any basis. The former place was as spacious as the castle hall, and only one person could bend down to pass through a corridor. It is also hard to imagine what would have happened if there were no such land to guide the roads.

    "Did you hear that?" Elsa suddenly stopped and said.

    "What do you hear?" Cheese asked curiously. As a caster, his physical fitness is the weakest among the five, and his relative five senses are not as sensitive as others.

    The remaining three, including the landlady, did not answer the cheese question. They put their ears on the rock wall and "heard" the sound from the depths of the cave in this way. It wasn''t just Elsa and them, but the land elves around the party seemed to find something. They started to get agitated, and at some point they broke up as if they had agreed.

    "You! Wait In vain, the master of justice beckoned the fleeing earth spirits, but these little guys quickly disappeared into the darkness beyond the lighting range.

    "It''s the sound of fighting. One side should be human. " The woman soldier raised her head from the cliff and said.

    "Come on, over there!" "Monkey" as the role of scouts in the group, first found the direction, he took the Lightstone in Mona''s hand and ran in a direction. The rest of them ran with him. Despite the master''s objection, Hahn resisted the cheese on his shoulder and took a big stride to follow.

    The light of fire, in this dark cave, the light of torch and brazier is so obvious. If the light of the fire only lights up the cave, then the figures fighting in the fire light project on the rock walls into strange and strange images. This is what Cheese saw when they turned around an ambulatory. In the light of the fire, the two parts of the people are fighting fiercely. One of them is a human in crude leather armor, and the other is some weird creatures. They''re a little shorter than normal humans, but that''s because they''re almost all on their backs. These creatures have a rough human shape with only one eye on their head. They have bulging tumors on their bodies and even moss all over their skin.

    "Caveman!" The three frost guards exclaimed at the same time. As the frost guards who have been excavating fortresses in Longji mountain, they are no stranger to these humanoid creatures living underground and in caves. Because in the process of excavating fortresses, the legions often encounter natural caves, and there is a great possibility that such creatures exist in these caves. In fact, 90 percent of frost guard''s combat attrition in the last 100 years is related to these creatures called cavemen.The sudden killing of the group of five clearly attracted the attention of both sides of the battle. Before cheese was ready, a small group of cavemen had already rushed towards them, and they were shouting to identify themselves with the humans. These cave dwellers have no shaped weapons in their hands, only some rough stone hammers and axes, and some even hold a large stone.

    "Defense! Protect the mage The female soldier growled and pulled out two one handed tomahawks from behind. "Boar" raised the round shield half the height of cheese, and stepped forward to the mage and Elsa, becoming the most solid barrier. "Monkey" Jack stepped back two steps in silence. The bow in his hand had reached the full string. The dark iron arrow reached the fastest trooper. The archer is the first to send out his force. In the dark environment, the arrow just hits the enemy''s one eye! However, the fall of their companions did not affect the cavemen, and they still kept the momentum of the charge.

    "Hum!" With the master''s murmur, the stalagmites on the top of the heads in front of the cave dwellers began to fall off. One by one, the rock pillars turned into deadly nails, smashing the enemies in front of them.

    "Good!" Hahn could not help but applaud in a low voice that frost guards did not have any hatred with the cavemen. Several comrades in arms of the same team would die in the hands of these underground creatures, so he was very happy to see the cheese magic work.

    However, although cheese''s spell eliminated some cavemen, more cavemen had already rushed to five people. After shooting two more arrows, Jack simply throws the bow at his back and takes out the hunter''s knife for a close fight. Mona, a female soldier, has firmly defended the left wing of the team with two tomahawks. Although she is a woman, her physical fitness after years of training is no less than that of her male colleagues. She has moved and retreated between the two axes, and has killed three or four cavemen in a blink of an eye.

    "Drink!" Hahn is worthy of the name of "wild boar". While his big shield is defending, the short spear in his other hand is the wild boar''s fangs. This strong northerner used his body to block almost all the enemies in front of him. Elsa and Jack, the two agile fighters, were not willing to be outdone. Although they had not been run in, they cooperated in tacit agreement. The cavemen attacked in a disorderly way and could not even scratch the corners of their clothes.

    However, with the dazzling performance of the five cheese men, more cavemen attacked them. The cavemen holding huge stones in their hands did not care whether they would hurt their own people or not. They just threw the rocks big of millstones head to face at the group.

    "Flying stone!" Mona yells to remind her teammates that Elsa and Jack are not in love with each other after receiving the notice, and the five instantly hide under the protection of Hahn. A huge stone makes a dull noise when it hits the shield. If it is an ordinary person, even if it is protected by a shield, the arm holding the shield will be broken. However, the wild boar holds the shield in both hands. No matter how powerful the flying stone is, he can''t stand back. At the same time, more stones that missed also caused a large area of cavemen around several people to fall.

    "I can''t hold back for long!" Hahn whispered. His strength is not endless, with more and more stones, the Hercules also a little less than what he wants.

    "We''re going to meet those people." Mona knocked over a caveman who was trying to sneak in and said.

    "But as soon as we move, we will be smashed into meat cakes by stones!" "Monkey" said. Indeed, in such a dense barrage, a few people were completely turned into targets.

    "I''ll fight for time. I say close your eyes and you''ll close your eyes." Suddenly said cheese, who had been silent.

    "What do you say? Now who dares..." Before Hahn had finished his words, he was interrupted by a drink of cheese.

    "Close your eyes!" The mage held up the wooden staff with the luminous stone, and suddenly stood up during the interval of a wave of attack. He saw that the luminous stone burst out ten times as strong as before! It''s like a little sun. For a moment, the cavemen covered their eyes and screamed.

    "Run!" At the command of the master, several people who closed their eyes followed the command and ran to the crowd without saying a word. The cave at war itself was not big enough, and the cheese soon joined up with another group of people.
