What was going on?
Why did the entrance of the burrow tunnel suddenly become so narrow?
The narrowness of the tunnel indicated that there must be a large number of creatures in the burrow space above, suppressing the number of Snowthreads. Generally speaking, such creatures would pose a great threat to the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers.
"What should we do? Should we continue to go up, or should we retreat to another burrow space and look for another tunnel?"
Grimm's eyes flashed as he recalled the scene in the previous burrow space. He said in a low voice, "In the previous burrow space, there were a total of three entrances. The two entrances were more than thirty meters and more than seventy meters respectively. They are not the best choice. As for the burrow space before the one before that …"
In the end, Grimm decided to enter this relatively narrow tunnel to explore the burrow space above before making a decision.
As the leader of this Dark Demon-Hunter Sorcerer team, Grimm's decision was naturally not objected to by anyone.
Immediately after, Grimm waved his hand. Thousand-eyed Carcinus carried the group of Demon-Hunter Sorcerers into the relatively narrow tunnel entrance in a flash.
After flying for about five hourglasses.
A gust of cold wind messed up the brownish-red fur on the back of Thousand-eyed Carcinus and the sorcerer robes of the sorcerers. Everyone gasped in surprise as they tried to guess all the information about the burrow in front of them.
"Caw? Young Master, don't tell me we still have to pass through a burrow space as vast as the Wolfspider Burrow? "
Myna stood on Grimm's shoulder and asked in a muffled voice.
After experiencing the Explosive Frost Jellyfish, Little Eight did not have a good impression of the Burrow World anymore.
Under the Mask of Truth, Grimm's expression was solemn and he did not speak.
"Hmph, so what if it's the Wolfspider Burrow? It's not dangerous for a fellow like you who only knows how to escape."
Ye Ye the parrot had already taken a liking to quarreling with Little Eight. Every time Little Eight said something, Ye Ye would not retort or mock it. It seemed like it would not feel good.
Another half an hourglass later.
"Hmm!?"
"This … this is!?"
"A burrow space with light?"
Everyone exclaimed in disbelief at the faint light in front of them.
After all, there were so many burrow spaces in the Burrow World, but only the Slumbering Fish Burrow and the Frost Jellyfish Burrow had light.
"Hehe."
Grimm smiled and said happily, "It seems that our mission in the Burrow World is coming to an end."
Even with Grimm's calm temperament, he couldn't help but feel his entire body loosen up at this moment. Wandering in this foreign world's rules of survival was indeed a very tiring and arduous task.
One could only imagine how difficult it must have been for the Reconnaissance Sorcerers.
"Quack? Young Master, you mean … the Surficial Tundra is above us, and we're about to leave the Burrow?! "
Myna cried out in surprise, filled with joy as well.
"Hmm, that should be the case," Grimm said faintly.
"Oh yeah! That's great, Young Master. We need to take a hot bath first. Oh, and milk, oatmeal, honey bat meat, and … "
The other Demon-Hunter Sorcerers also came back to their senses and slapped their foreheads, secretly cursing their stupidity.
Because they had been in the Burrow World for a long time, the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers had become accustomed to thinking that the top would always be a nest for different groups of creatures. They had even forgotten that the world's largest burrow space was the true face of this world, the vast and endless Surficial Tundra!
Nairo slightly raised her eyes that were covered by her long blonde hair.
Her eyes exuded a faint light as she looked through her hair to the light at the distant entrance of the cave. Two bright spots of light were reflected in her pupils.
Lou Linna gently tucked her short blonde hair to her right ear, revealing the blue gem earring hanging on her delicate earlobe. A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. The parrot Ye Ye was also full of anticipation.
Saris gently held the squirrel on top of her head in her arms and slowly combed its soft fur.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief in joy. Under Grimm's urging, the Thousand-eyed Carcinus could not help but speed up a little.
Phew …
On the thick ice field, under the bright sun, the cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew on everyone's Sorcerer Barriers. This kind of freedom without the thick layer of rock pressing on top of their heads, the sudden opening of the sky and the earth made the people who had been in the Burrow World for a year and a half suddenly feel at ease. They even wanted to shout out loud!
Behind them was a cave of only about fifty meters.
This entrance to the burrow was so ordinary and insignificant in the Burrow World. It seemed to have no characteristics, and it just appeared so calmly on the Surficial Tundra.
However, who would have thought that under this entrance to the burrow would be such a vast and indescribable huge ecosystem.
As such, Grimm could not help but think of the Reconnaissance Sorcerers who had explored this world.
If the other party was a little careless and did not explore these burrows in depth, perhaps this world would no longer be the Burrow World, but the Surficial Tundra World.
At the same time.
Grimm noticed that this entrance to the burrow did not have the Black Iso Web, which meant that this entrance to the burrow had not been discovered by the Dark Demon-Hunters in the special mission issued by the Black Iso Tower Stigmata Sorcerers.
"Hey, Young Master, look at these ice flowers!"
Myna shouted in mid-air.
Everyone looked in the direction where Myna flew. After their vision passed through the icy snowflakes, it fell on a large area of blue and white ice flowers on a distant hillside.
The other Demon-Hunters did not think much of it, thinking that it was just some ordinary creatures in the Burrow World.
However, after a moment of absent-mindedness, Grimm was shocked!
"Little Eight, don't touch those flowers!"
Grimm shouted, but it seemed a little too late. Little Eight was holding a blue stamen in her mouth and said, "It smells so good."
At the same time, Little Eight seemed to have heard Grimm's shout. She was stunned and asked, "Why?"
The other Demon-Hunters were also puzzled by Grimm's sudden reaction. Grimm sighed anxiously and summoned Little Eight to his shoulder. He took out a blue stamen from Little Eight's mouth.
"Caw? Young Master, you want some too? There are many more here. "
Myna asked doubtfully.
This stamen was filled with the breath of life and also emitted a fragrant smell like honey. It was a fragrance that was completely different from the death breath of the crystal nucleus in the Acraepoids.
The Demon-Hunters next to him secretly looked at the blue stamen in Grimm's hand and even planned to collect some as specimens.
Crack! Crack!
The sound of the ice cracking came faintly from afar.
Everyone thought that it was caused by the cold wind blowing the ice and did not pay much attention to it. Because in everyone's impression, the creatures in the Surficial Tundra must be weak and vulnerable low-level creatures.
Grimm raised his head.
The Elemental Eyes under the Mask of Truth were solemn. He said, "I'm afraid the situation is not right. Let's retreat to the cave immediately!"
"Huh?!"
Everyone was confused. Retreat to the cave?
Shouldn't they be returning to the Void Fortress to submit the mission now?
It was estimated that the journey from here to the Sorcerer World's Void Fortress was only about twenty days. Everyone's Demon-Hunting mission would be considered completed.
It took less than two years to complete the mission and earn a total of six Sorcerer Essences.
And now, Grimm said that they were going back?
In confusion, everyone did not act immediately. Instead, they waited for Grimm's explanation. Why did they want to return to the Burrow when they were about to complete the mission?
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack …
Gradually, the almost continuous sound of ice cracking finally attracted everyone's attention. With a bang, on the ice layer on the ground a hundred meters away from the group, a red-eyed Ice Rat popped its head out.
"Hmm? This little creature … "
Grimm's expression changed. It was not like before when he parked the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft far away. At such a close distance …
"Retreat!"
After shouting, Grimm ignored everyone and directly ordered the Thousand-eyed Carcinus to retreat into the relatively narrow entrance of the Burrow.
No wonder …
No wonder the passage under the entrance of the Burrow was so narrow. The creatures in the burrow space below were clearly very weak.
So, this was the reason!
After Grimm retreated a few hundred meters into the Burrow, the roars and screams from behind finally caught up with him. At the same time, there was a tidal wave of squeaking sounds.
"Young Master, could those guys be the same as the Ice Bats?"
Myna asked in a trembling voice when he realized that he had caused trouble.
Glaring at Myna, Grimm said, "What do you think?"
"Ugh …"
Grimm gritted his teeth and suddenly stomped his foot at the Thousand-eyed Carcinus. "Stop!"
"Got it, Your Excellency Grimm."
After taking a deep breath, Grimm slowly turned around on the back of the Thousand-eyed Carcinus. He solemnly took off the Mask of Truth, revealing an ice crystal on his forehead that was emitting a cold glint.
The red and blue elemental eyes looked back with incomparable sharpness, quietly waiting with the Sabbatic Goat Staff in their hands.
It seemed that Grimm had made a major decision.
