Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 299 The White Beast with a Human Face's Reminder

Upon hearing the roar, Chu Danqing decisively took out a 100,000-lumen flashlight and shone it towards the location where the growl had been heard.

The darkness was instantly dispelled, and Chu Danqing finally saw the monster.

A large, robust feline with snow-white fur.

But the head area was an old man's face full of wrinkles, and the face seemed extremely pale because it had not seen the sun for many years.

When the 100,000-lumen flashlight shone out, the monster involuntarily closed its eyes, and crackling sounds began to appear on its face and under its fur, with visible black smoke also emanating from it.

"Ah~" The monster let out a sharp scream, leaped up and hung upside down from the top of the cave, climbing at an extremely fast speed and quickly leaving the flashlight's illumination range.

This monster is powerful, but light is clearly its nemesis.

It's not just fear, but the ability to actually suffer harm.

The sound echoed continuously in the cave, but it did not go far away.

This means that the monster did not leave, but rather disappeared into the darkness, waiting for its chance to strike.

“Xiao Chu, it doesn’t mean any harm.” Da Bao’s expression also showed doubt.

He could hear the warning and threat in the monster's growl, but there was no malice in it, which puzzled him.

"And now? Still nothing?" Chu Danqing was also confused about what was going on.

"No," Da Bao said honestly. "Not yet. Come on, over there."

"Do you know why?" Chu Danqing continued to ask.

Upon hearing this, Da Bao gave a perfect answer: "I don't know."

How could he possibly know that Da Bao was just a five-year-old child?

Chu Danqing thought about it for a moment and came to a conclusion.

He then took out a food item that could heal injuries and a medicine that could remove negative status effects.

“I got separated from my friends; they went deep into the cave.”

"I think you're trying to stop us from going in, but I have a reason to go."

"I'm sorry I hurt you earlier, this is my compensation," Chu Danqing said, placing the food and medicine in the dark.

A rustling sound came from the darkness, clearly indicating that the monster was moving.

However, because of the darkness, Chu Danqing couldn't see clearly, but fortunately Da Bao explained it to her.

"I'm smelling it." After saying that, Da Bao added, "Take it, I'm leaving."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of eating came from the darkness, clearly indicating that they had realized that what Chu Danqing had provided was not harmful.

On the other side, Da Bao became alert, while Chu Danqing gripped the flashlight tightly in his hand.

Whenever the monster makes any move, Da Bao will immediately take action, and Chu Danqing will once again shine a flashlight on it.

After the sound stopped, a dry and unnatural voice came through.

"Be careful, elephants."

"The road lies ahead."

After the monster finished speaking, the cave fell silent once again, without any sound.

"They're gone." Da Bao relaxed as he watched the other person climb backwards from the top of the cave and leave.

"Let's keep going," Chu Danqing said, while his mind was racing with thoughts of what was going on.

The monster's sudden appearance was to prevent them from entering the cave; it meant no harm.

However, Chu Danqing possessed sufficient strength and spoke with such decisiveness that the monster did not attempt to obstruct him further.

The other party gave two pieces of advice: one was to be careful of something called an elephant, and the other was to run back if something happened.

But there's another problem: what about the legal team?

According to William's memory, the legal team were all ordinary people, so how did they get past this monster?

"Xiao Chu, blood." Da Bao, who had been leading Chu Danqing forward, suddenly stopped and picked up a broken dagger from a corner.

There was still blood on the dagger.

What Da Bao meant by saying this was that the bloodstains were fresh.

Chu Danqing took the dagger and examined it closely; it was made of stone.

At first, he didn't pay much attention, but upon closer inspection, he discovered the problem.

"Sharp and hard."

"It doesn't make sense. It looks a bit like a knife, but the size isn't quite right," Chu Danqing said after observing it.

Chu Danqing was able to identify them because of his knowledge of the weapon-type spirit beast diagrams from the previous trial world.

The stone dagger reminded him of a chip spear, which seemed very incongruous.

"But if there are gods, then perhaps it makes sense." Chu Danqing thought for a moment, "If even Da Bao might not be able to defeat a monster, it would be even more unreasonable for him to be injured by a flashlight."

So all these unreasonable things combined become reasonable.

"Is the smell of blood still there?" Chu Danqing casually stuffed it into his storage space.

Whether it's useful or not, we'll see later; just save it for now.

“Yes, but there’s a river,” Da Bao added.

"It means it's heading towards the underground river. Let's hurry." Chu Danqing wasn't surprised that there was an underground river.

The guide who died suddenly said that there was indeed an underground river in the center of the cave. After crossing the underground river, you would have completed half of the cave exploration.

But judging from the monster's words, this doesn't seem to be the case.

Turning back is the only way out, going forward is a trap?
William Hamlet's identity is complete, but because he is just an ordinary person, he has never been in contact with any gods or mystical things, and knows nothing about them.

It's possible that both the guide and the monster are telling the truth.

"Malice, two."

Before Chu Danqing could even hear the sound of the underground river flowing, Da Bao spoke first.

These words immediately alerted the two malicious sources by the underground river.

"Eek!!!" ×2
Two childish voices suddenly burst out.

Chu Danqing instantly spotted the source of the sound and turned on her flashlight in its direction.

The sudden burst of bright light caused the two malicious individuals to involuntarily squint and shield their eyes with their hands.

At the same time, Chu Danqing also saw what these two sources of malice looked like.

They were two dwarfs, each about a meter tall, with unusually small eyes that looked as if they were embedded in their round, basketball-sized heads.

It had no body hair, but its entire body was made of muscles, making it look quite robust.

Secondly, there were their weapons; they were carrying short knives, the same style as the broken dagger Chu Danqing had previously obtained.

Chu Danqing then realized that he hadn't misjudged; this thing really was a knife.

The reason it resembles a dagger is because it was not designed for normal people, but for these dwarves.

Meanwhile, the two dwarves seemed to have adjusted to the bright light and launched another attack with their short swords.

This suggests that the dwarves did not seem to fear light like the monster.

The reason for feeling uncomfortable is naturally because being suddenly exposed to strong light in the dark will inevitably cause a subconscious reaction.

At that moment, Chu Danqing noticed something out of place on one of the dwarves.

A pocket watch, clearly a modern craft item, hangs on the dirty, old clothes.

It was clearly a trophy obtained from Chu Danqing's legal team.

This news has both good and bad aspects.

The good news is that Chu Danqing did not go to the wrong place; the bad news is that his legal team has likely suffered significant casualties.

Da Bao immediately rushed forward and engaged the two dwarves in battle.

In the battle, Da Bao fought two opponents and still gained the upper hand.

The dwarf was clearly weaker than the white-furred monster, but the dwarf's short sword was extremely sharp and hard.

When the attack lands on Da Bao, it can cause a large portion of Da Bao's shield to fall off, and it can also block Da Bao's claws with a short sword.

The strength of the short knife matched Chu Danqing's guess.

Upon seeing this, Chu Danqing immediately activated the Elemental Energy Gloves and randomly summoned an Earth Elemental Sprite.

This made Chu Danqing's eye twitch; he wanted the fire elemental spirit.

It can not only increase Da Bao's attack power, but also serve as a lighting device.

Unfortunately, this thing is random, and he can't decide it.

So whatever comes out randomly, there's nothing you can do about it.

Chu Danqing could control the skills he possessed himself, but he couldn't control the skills derived from his equipment.

The former is self-controlled, while the latter is a rigid program, unless you are an apostle who follows the corresponding equipment-type playstyle.

The increase in defense didn't change Da Bao much.

Da Bao had a shield on him, and Chu Danqing kept the array of defenses and shields active.

Therefore, even if the shield is reduced, it can be replenished immediately.

"Ee?" A dwarf noticed the earth elemental spirit and then his gaze fell on Chu Danqing.

He immediately grabbed his short sword and charged at Chu Danqing.

As a result of this withdrawal, another dwarf was immediately pierced through the neck by Da Bao's sharp claws, and his head was torn off along the wound.

But the dwarf's vitality was extremely tenacious. Even though its head and body were separated, it was still not dead. Its head rolled on the ground and it could even blink its eyes.

Chu Danqing was also shocked. Even Guo Ming, who was at the third level, could not achieve this when he was beheaded with a single sword strike.

Meanwhile, the other dwarf who was heading towards Chu Danqing was caught up by Da Bao, who kicked it to the ground and stabbed it in the back ten times in succession with his claws.

Chu Danqing could even clearly see the internal organs, which had been torn apart by sharp claws, through the wound on his back.

Even so, this dwarf was not dead yet, and his condition was even better than that of the dwarf whose head had been separated from his body.

Chu Danqing felt that these two dwarves were most likely just minor monsters.

With their own strong vitality and the attack power of the unknown stone daggers, two of them might not be a problem, but if there are many of them, it will be troublesome.

Chu Danqing understood that the war mission was indeed very difficult.

Moreover, this mission is a secret infiltration, and Chu Danqing has no other apostle teammates, making it even more difficult.

However, the corresponding danger is also lower, since he is now in the shadows while the Nightmare Walker is in the light.

As long as they don't expose themselves, they can completely disguise themselves as natives to gain enough advantages.
