Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh …
When the others saw Grimm and Nairo's pale faces and gasping for breath, they knew that something terrible had happened. They dared not hesitate for even a second and flew toward the entrance of the tunnel above them.
"Oh my god, I was scared to death, sob sob sob …"
Myna stood on Grimm's shoulder and cried. It used its wings to wipe its tears. It did not fly into the Dimensional Gap, as if it was afraid of Ye Ye's mockery.
Whoosh.
Grimm and Nairo stood on the brownish-red fur on the back of Thousand-eyed Carcinus. Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm shouted, "Run!"
"Yes, Sir Grimm."
Thousand-eyed Carcinus took a deep breath and dashed into the tunnel with its eight crab claws.
Turning their heads back, Grimm and Nairo looked at the endless darkness of the Slurry Burrow with lingering fear in their hearts. Densely packed blue light spots had formed into a cloud and were flying toward them in an overwhelming manner.
As the Thousand-eyed Carcinus moved further and further away from the Slurry Burrow, Grimm heaved a sigh of relief. He said with lingering fear, "With such a large number, I'm afraid that even a Bright Sorcerer legion of ten thousand Soul Slaves would suffer heavy casualties, not to mention ten Dark Sorcerers like us."
"Hmm."
Nairo nodded and responded. In her black chain, there was also an Ice Bee of about 20 centimeters that buzzed and struggled.
Soon, Thousand-eyed Carcinus caught up with the eight Dark Sorcerers who had escaped first. They formed a team again and continued to fly toward the burrow above.
Grimm did not feel any repulsion or resentment towards his teammates for leaving him behind and escaping first.
Because this was the rule among Dark Sorcerers.
The swarm of Ice Bees did not chase after them. After more than 30 hourglasses, Grimm and his team passed through the tunnel and arrived at the first space that had never been explored by the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers.
The ground was filled with Snowthread Worms. Although their numbers were far from the Snowthread Burrow, it was still more than any burrow space that Grimm and the rest had ever seen.
Floating in the sky were things that looked like jellyfish from the Sorcerer World. They ranged from a dozen centimeters to a few meters, emitting a rare soft light. Many of their tentacles swayed gently and floated in the air.
No, it would be more appropriate to call them Frost Mothers.
As the leader of the team, Grimm had to collect the ecological information of the burrow. Therefore, he took out a crystal ball and began to record the ecological system of this burrow. After a brief understanding, he named some burrows that he thought were valuable.
Clearly, the biggest feature of this nest was the Frost Jellyfish.
In the burrow, creatures that emitted light were like the roars of creatures on the surface. They were a type of warning or the temptation of a rattlesnake.
It was obvious that these Frost Jellyfish were definitely not the Rattlesnake's temptation …
As if sensing that these Frost Jellyfish were harmless, Little Eight laughed out loud and said, "Hehe, Young Master, we can change the taste of our dinner tonight."
Flapping its wings, Myna flew towards a small Frost Jellyfish that was about twenty centimeters long.
The Frost Jellyfish seemed to have sensed Myna's approach. It slid its tentacles desperately, trying to escape. However, its speed was incomparable to Myna. Myna began to circle around the Frost Jellyfish.
The other Demon-Hunter Sorcerers also approached the Frost Jellyfish, hoping to collect some specimens for research.
As if sensing that it could not escape from Myna, the Frost Jellyfish quickly shrunk into a ball and became a floating translucent ice ball. This made Myna even more curious.
"Hehe, Young Master, looks like we can eat it like a rice ball!"
As it spoke, Myna grabbed the Frost Jellyfish that had shrunk into a ball and was about to present it as a treasure to Grimm.
"Oh my god!"
However, the moment Myna touched the Frost Jellyfish, it seemed to have sensed something. With a scream, it disappeared into thin air and entered the Dimensional Gap.
In the next moment, there was a loud "boom" and a large number of icicles shot out in all directions.
This Frost Jellyfish had self-destructed!
At the same time, the Frost Jellyfish that were emitting a soft glow within a few hundred meters radius all shrunk into a ball. The faces of the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers changed.
Grimm reacted quickly and shouted, "Don't go near these Frost Jellyfish!"
The Demon-Hunter Sorcerers who were planning to collect specimens flew back in shock. Although the explosion of the Frost Jellyfish caused by Myna was not that powerful, it was only the smallest Frost Jellyfish.
There were many Frost Jellyfish that were a few meters in size in the sky.
After half an hourglass, these Frost Jellyfish returned to their normal form. Grimm breathed a sigh of relief. Under the Mask of Truth, the elemental light in his eyes flashed. He said in a deep voice, "Thousand-eyed Crab, fly up slowly and look for the tunnel entrance. Don't disturb these … erm, these Explosive Frost Jellyfish."
Grimm named these Frost Jellyfish that had the ability to self-destruct as Explosive Frost Jellyfish.
"Yes, Sir Grimm."
Thousand-eyed Carcinus flew up slowly at the speed of the Frost Jellyfish's escape. These Frost Jellyfish took the initiative to disperse. They did not pose any threat. This made the slightly nervous crowd heave a sigh of relief.
The space on Grimm's shoulder was distorted, and Myna appeared.
"Sob sob sob, Young Master, these fellyfish can self-destruct. Let's not eat them."
Ye Ye the parrot snorted disdainfully. "Hmph, you're the one who provoked them. How could these Explosive Frost Jellyfish self-destruct? You only know how to cause trouble and cause trouble for Grimm Demon-Hunter Sorcerer. "
Grimm did not say much. He commanded Thousand-eyed Carcinus to pass through the dense Frost Jellyfish and continued to look for possible tunnel entrances on the ceiling.
However, the Frost Jellyfish's escape speed was too slow, so it was not efficient.
Five hourglasses later.
In front of a tunnel entrance about sixty meters wide, Grimm shook his head and said, "Keep looking."
Seven days later.
After giving up on two relatively narrow tunnels, Grimm and the rest finally found a super large tunnel entrance with a diameter of more than two hundred meters.
"Look over there!"
Looking at the direction pointed by Myna's wings, they passed through thousands of large and small Explosive Frost Jellyfish that emitted a soft glow. A super large Explosive Frost Jellyfish with a diameter of nearly thirty meters appeared.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!
If this big fella self-destructed …
Grimm thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "You guys wait here. I'll try to collect a specimen and name the burrow space."
After saying that, a layer of ice crystals gradually appeared on Grimm's body. His figure flashed quickly. Before a small Explosive Frost Jellyfish with a diameter of more than twenty centimeters could shrink into a ball and self-destruct, he had already frozen it into a large ice cube.
Grimm heaved a sigh of relief and said to the crystal ball, "Frost Jellyfish Burrow."
Then, Grimm and the rest rode on Thousand-eyed Carcinus and continued to move toward the next entrance of the burrow …
Two months later.
"Young Master, are they mating? It's so disgusting!"
Myna stood on Grimm's shoulder and looked down with everyone on Thousand-eyed Carcinus. On the ground of the burrow space, hundreds of Frost Pythons that were more than ten meters long were entangled into a ball, like a huge ice ball, constantly rolling.
Grimm said faintly, "This is just a part of the rules of evolution of the ecological species in this world. It's a representation of the Endless World's profound truth."
These Frost Pythons were very strong, and the hardness of their scales was amazing. They were very aggressive.
However, because they lived in the burrow space for a long time, the Frost Pythons did not have the ability to fly. Instead, they had evolved the ability to climb perfectly.
However, it seemed that it was the mating season for these Frost Pythons. Grimm and the rest perfectly avoided the possible sneak attack of these Frost Pythons.
With the help of the elemental light, Grimm looked into the distance. At this time, there were still a few similar entangled Frost Pythons in the entire burrow space within the field of vision of the elemental light.
Grimm said to the crystal ball in a deep voice, "Frost Python Burrow."
The group and Thousand-eyed Carcinus continued to fly up along a tunnel that was a hundred meters wide …
Six months later.
In a small space, the area was not big, and the ecosystem was extremely simple.
Grimm only used the crystal ball to make some simple records. He didn't even name it.
The burrows they had been through in the past few months seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. With the company of Thousand-eyed Carcinus, Grimm and the rest were basically the creatures at the top of these burrows. Nothing in the burrow space could pose any threat to them, so the mission progress was relatively fast.
Moreover, it was different from searching for the passage to the core of the Burrow World in the Surficial Tundra.
All the passages left by the Acraepoid skeletons to the core of the Burrow World would inevitably have the most secure route. What the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers needed to do was to find the largest tunnel entrance in each burrow space.
However, at this time, the only tunnel entrance in this unnamed burrow space made the expressions of many Demon-Hunter Sorcerers change slightly.
Less than sixty meters?
