The next day, Aoki and Dazed Beast once again set foot on the main tunnel of the Gopher Cave.
Although it would only take a few hours to travel between Withered Leaf City and Jinhuang City by bus, it would probably take a few days if they were to walk.
After all, they would encounter a lot of wild elves along the way.
If they walked through the Gopher Cave, it might be faster by a day to half a day.
However, if Aoki were to explore a branch tunnel after walking for a while, it would probably take a lot longer.
In particular, after discovering that the poisonous gas Gui Si absorbed would greatly attract a large number of poison-type spirits in the cave, Aoki became even more fond of drilling into the long, unexplored branching tunnels.
Releasing all the elves to fight against the attracted poisonous elves, and at the same time, Ghost could absorb some poisonous gas to strengthen its own poison attribute.
Killing many birds with one stone!
Last night, Ghost could already control the gas around its body to cause a slight corrosive effect on the tunnel walls.
Although it took a long time, it also showed that Ghost's poison energy was increasing.
The hardworking Pincer Scorpion was the happiest because it was gradually familiarizing itself with the control of its body. Aoki also allowed it to occasionally participate in battles to familiarize itself with its body.
There were endless battles every day, allowing it to play to its heart's content. As its level increased, coupled with its sniper characteristics, those small Lada elves below level 10 could hardly resist its attack.
As for the other elves, their mastery of their skills had improved a lot.
The elves they encountered recently all fought as slowly as possible to prevent their opponents from being defeated too quickly, and they would be short of opponents again.
A day passed quickly, but the progress of the elves was very gratifying.
Dark Crow once again overcame the increase in weight and was now able to get used to fighting with 15 kilograms of weight.
The Dazed Beast was able to combine its superpower with water energy. It was able to maintain 80% of the power of its water skills, and it was able to make agile turns and turns. It was not far from the 100% power that Aoki had hoped for. It was not impossible to increase the power of its water skills in the future.
On the other hand, Gui Si absorbed two wisps of poison gas in one day, thoroughly developing his own poison attribute. As long as he used two poison attribute skills, his ability to fight a battle of attrition would be the strongest existence in the entire team.
Big Milk Can's improvement was the smallest in the team, but Aoki didn't have high requirements for her in battle. As long as she could maintain the Elves' physical strength at all times and occasionally release a few healing bells, it would be enough.
However, Big Milk Tank wasn't easy to satisfy. After getting Aoki's approval, she would use her free time to train her body, laying a foundation for learning various skills in the future.
Li La's improvement was the most obvious, of course, excluding Pincer Tail Scorpion.
Li La and Aoki's tacit understanding had basically been built. It was unknown whether it was the effect of the new energy cube or Pincer Tail Scorpion that stimulated Li La's improvement.
Anyway, during the battle, Li La had gradually gotten used to Aoki's changes in moves and his novel fighting style.
Finally, there was Pincer Tail Scorpion. After a day of battle, his level didn't increase by much, only one level, reaching level 12. However, he was almost familiar with the changes and growth of his body. He believed that when he fought again tomorrow, he should be able to use his full strength.
When Aoki put away the Elves and prepared to look for a branch tunnel to camp, he encountered a situation.
A middle-aged uncle carrying a backpack and a shovel and shovel stopped Aoki, who wanted to enter a tunnel to rest.
With a seemingly easy-going smile, he stopped Aoki at the entrance of a tunnel that he wanted to enter.
Originally, Aoki just casually found a branch tunnel to camp. If the other party wanted this tunnel, it wasn't impossible for him to give it to him.
However, Aoki smelled a faint smell of blood on this person.
The smell of blood was very faint, so faint that it was almost undetectable. However, whether it was in his previous life or this life, Aoki had killed a lot of people. He was very sensitive to the smell of blood. It was not the kind that was left behind after killing the Elves. It was definitely produced after killing people.
Generally, after Aoki dealt with people who had malicious intentions towards him, he would clean up the smell on his body so that it wouldn't be detected by people with a sensitive sense of smell.
Although the middle-aged uncle in front of him had also treated it and used some soil to cover it up, it was obviously too rushed and didn't cover it up carefully. Ordinary people might not be able to detect it, but for Aoki, it was like a bright light in the dark night. It was very clear.
"Haha, little brother, I'm sorry. This tunnel is where I've been living. I went out during the day. Can I trouble you to change to another tunnel? I'm really sorry, please forgive me. " The middle-aged uncle said cheerfully. At the same time, he moved his feet slightly and blocked Aoki's view of the tunnel.
This was an unintentional movement, but Aoki, who had been paying attention to his actions, felt that something was wrong.
A light flashed in Aoki's dark eyes. There was definitely something wrong with this person! Or rather, there was definitely something wrong with this tunnel branch!
Aoki smiled and said, "So this tunnel was where you lived from the beginning. I didn't know. It's my first time in the Gopher Cave. Sorry, sorry."
Hearing Aoki's words, the middle-aged uncle's body relaxed a little. He scratched the back of his head and said with a seemingly honest smile, "Haha, it's okay. I left in a hurry and forgot to leave a sign at the entrance of the tunnel. I've troubled you, little brother. I wonder if little brother …"
He looked at the other shining tunnels. His meaning was obvious. He wanted Aoki to find another tunnel to camp in. This place was now his.
"No problem, no problem. I'll change to another place."
Aoki's words made him more relaxed, and the smile on his face became more sincere.
"But …"
But these two words made his face stiffen.
Seeing his expression, Aoki smiled coldly in his heart.
"But I've already gone in before. I put some tools inside. I may need to go in and get them. What do you think?"
This sentence was the real key point. In fact, Aoki had never gone in before. He just wanted to test if there was really something wrong with this middle-aged uncle.
The smile on the middle-aged man's face gradually disappeared. He carefully looked at Qing Mu, and after meeting his calm eyes, a smile appeared on his face again. However, it was unknown how much sincerity there was in this smile, and how much coldness there was in it.
"Then, little brother, will you go with me to get them?"
"Okay!"
