Chapter 272 The Underworld
There is no doubt that although Ruth is a noble lady, there is an adventurous factor hidden in Ruth's bones.
After getting King Kong's affirmative answer, he immediately suggested that King Kong go down to have a look together, King Kong hesitated for a moment and agreed.
The reason why he didn't say this discovery immediately before was because he had some scruples about the extraordinary power in it.
After all, the strength of his incarnation is only the top group on earth, but not the invincible group.
Therefore, he dare not guarantee 100% that there will be no accidents.
If he was alone, he would not be worried, but with Ruth as an ordinary person, he would have to think more.
But the reason why he agreed now was because in his perception, he didn't perceive any danger.
"Okay, let's go down, but just explore, if you encounter danger, get out immediately."
After thinking about it, King Kong asked Ruth to make mental preparations in advance.
"OK!"
Ruth also realized that King Kong was no longer joking, and she had gradually seen how powerful his extraordinary ability was, even the North and South Poles could come and go freely, but now she reminded her that this underground world was even more dangerous than the North and South Poles Not a lot.
So, she also became more cautious, she knew that she had no ability to help, but at least she couldn't make trouble at the critical moment.
Seeing Ruth's serious and cautious face, King Kong smiled again.
"Of course, you just need to pay attention and relax. There should be no danger if there is no accident."
Putting the water monster egg into the portable space, King Kong and Ruth teleported and disappeared beside Loch Ness, and they appeared in a dim space in the next second.
There was a dead silence all around, and Ruth would have almost yelled if she hadn't felt that King Kong was by her side.
"We have come to the ground. This is about 700 meters below the level of Loch Ness. It is also the location where the cave at the bottom of the lake extends to more than 4000 meters. Wait a little longer. Well, I found the next suitable location to move to. "
Sensing the change in Ruth's mood, King Kong briefly explained a few words, and then teleported her again in less than ten seconds.
This time, the two came to another place that was still a bit dark, but they could barely capture some light sources that they didn't know where they came from.
Of course, this kind of light source is only for them, not to mention King Kong himself. The five senses are extraordinary, and it doesn’t make much difference to him whether there is light or not. Ruth has divine power, even if she can’t compare with him, her senses are more than ordinary People many times.
At the same time, there is also the sound of water.
"Sounds like a waterfall?"
After the previous reassurance, Ruth had calmed down this time, before King Kong could speak, she had already spoken first.
"That's right, it's about 80 meters to your left."
King Kong said something, and snapped his fingers at the same time, a beam of light shot out from his hand, hovered and stopped at a position about 30 meters above them, and the entire underground space was illuminated at once.
"That's much better."
"What is this? Your ability?"
Looking at the little sun above her head that illuminates the entire underground space as brightly as the day outside, but the light is soft and not glaring, although she is no longer surprised by King Kong's various magical abilities, Ruth still Can't help being curious.
"Illumination, a very simple and practical little magic." King Kong said casually.
"Magic?" Ruth's eyes lit up.
"It's the kind of magic you understand. If you are interested, I can teach you slowly later."
"Is it really possible?"
"of course."
……
After asking a few more questions, Ruth put aside her interest in magic for the time being. Although she wished she could go back and study with King Kong immediately, the current expedition cannot be abandoned halfway.
The two checked it out, and found that the underground space here is a cave that goes down layer by layer, and there is water flow.
"It seems that there is no water in the place we first arrived just now?"
"It's not like that, it's just that the water there flattens out so you don't notice, it's all coming from Loch Ness and the nearby groundwater."
"So, did you find anything?"
"I found the same aura as that of the egg here. It should have been left a few years ago. No accident, its parents should have passed by here, which means that we are looking in the right direction."
"So, are we almost reaching the underground world?"
"In fact, I have a sense of where they are."
As he said that, King Kong directly took Ruth to teleport again. This time, what appeared in front of them was no longer a dark and narrow cave space, but an underground world.
"Oh my god! I can't believe my eyes"
King Kong took a closer look at this underground world. There was a soft light here, and the light came from the huge glowing gems on the top and the moving miniature galaxy.
To be more precise, it was a group of peculiar fluorescent birds, about the size of a sparrow, but very beautiful like a natural elf.
From the top down, there is a huge space with a radius of nearly thirty kilometers and a height of almost one kilometer. It is simply a small world.
At this time, he and Ruth were on a cliff near the edge, and in front of them was a lake that occupied at least half of the bottom of the underground space, a lake that was many times larger than Loch Ness.
"Kim, what's that? A dinosaur?"
Ruth looked at a group of huge creatures chasing and playing in the lake, grabbed King Kong's arm and asked, maybe King Kong was by his side, maybe there was a safe distance from these huge creatures, she didn't feel scared because of it, more Instead, I was curious.
"Dinosaurs? That's right." King Kong's gaze also fell on the group of big guys in the lake. "They should be plesiosaurs, or some kind of variant of plesiosaurs."
The reason why King Kong said this is because these big guys, although they have a very similar appearance to the plesiosaur, are bigger.
Compared with the plesiosaurs, which are usually only three to five meters in size, this group of big guys is more than one size bigger. King Kong can accurately visually measure the largest one, at least 18 meters six, which is definitely a big guy.
In this era, although Ruth knew about the existence of dinosaurs, she didn't know much about dinosaurs, so she listened to King Kong's careful explanation, and then she roughly understood the gap.
"These big guys are not only bigger than normal plesiosaurs, but they also have extraordinary power, which not only makes them stronger, but also allows them to live longer."
"Let's talk about the biggest guy. I can perceive the traces of time on it. It has been at least 1000 years, which means it has lived for so long."
"Unbelievable!" Ruth was shocked again.
"Even, its current vitality has not yet reached the period of decline. I estimate that it will have no problem even if it lives another 1000 years."
Hearing what King Kong said, Ruth could no longer express the shock in her heart in words.
Although from King Kong, she has gradually begun to understand the existence of the extraordinary world, but in her cognition, apart from gods, perhaps only monsters like vampires can live for thousands of years.
King Kong still had something to say, otherwise Ruth would only be even more shocked.
For example, in his perception, the level of extraordinary power in this big guy is already comparable to the Kraken he met before.
At this time, Ruth thought of something: "Wait, they can't be the group of that egg, right?"
King Kong smiled slightly: "You are so smart, Ruth."
Ruth patted her chest carefully, and there was a wave of shock: "Fortunately, we didn't eat that egg, otherwise these big guys turned around and found that their eggs were gone, and they would get angry. suffered."
King Kong withdrew his admiring gaze, and said seriously: "You are such a kind girl, Ruth."
Ruth accepted this frankly: "Thank you for the compliment, Kim, I think any normal person would have such an idea."
King Kong: "Actually, don't worry too much. Even if such a situation really occurs, these big guys will not easily trouble ordinary people. I can't feel any traces of killing human beings on them. It's no surprise that they Should be friendly."
Ruth: "Really? They really don't look that scary, although they are not normal, but how did they go to Loch Ness to lay eggs and leave them there? Did they just forget?"
King Kong actually already had an answer to this question, but he didn't say it directly, but said: "Maybe we can ask them."
For his proposal, Ruth's eyes widened instantly: "Is it okay?"
Although she said before that they don't look very scary, it's one thing to say it, but it's another thing to get close to it. It's like the beluga whale looks cute, but its size alone confuses most people. Stay away.
King Kong: "Of course, don't forget that they are extraordinary creatures, and their intelligence may not be lower than that of humans."
Then, he took Ruth to a location closer to the lake, which was less than 100 meters away from the nearest plesiosaur.
This plesiosaur is chasing a fish in the water and has been separated from the group by some distance.
"Hey! Look here, guys."
King Kong beckoned on the shore, trying to attract the attention of the plesiosaur in the water.
It's just that, compared to the fish in the water, King Kong doesn't seem to be attractive to it. It just looked up to the shore for a look, and then continued to chase the fish in the water.
Seeing this scene, Ruth couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"It doesn't seem to want to talk to you."
King Kong spread his hands helplessly: "Maybe you are right, it seems that I should greet their heads directly."
As he said that, he turned his eyes to the lake farther away, and his eyes fell on the largest plesiosaur. This time, he released some of his own breath, making this big guy immediately alert and look over.
After attracting the other party's attention, King Kong once again invited the other party to come to the shore to talk.
This time, the plesiosaur did not refuse. It could sense King Kong's strength. After summoning the group, it led them towards King Kong and Ruth in a mighty way.
"Humans? Why are you here?"
When a group of plesiosaurs stopped near the lake and looked at King Kong and Ruth with their small eyes, the voice of a woman in her 40s rang in their ears.
The sudden sound made Ruth look around quickly, and King Kong patted her hand: "Don't look, the one who spoke just now is the big guy in front of you."
What he said instantly made Ruth's eyes widen, because she was sure that she heard correctly, what she heard just now was pure English.
It's not too crazy that a dinosaur spoke, and it was still English.
"Hello big guy, we came here by accident, you can call me Jin, what do you call you?"
King Kong greeted with a smile.
"You can call me Nina." The big guy said again. Of course, King Kong noticed that it didn't actually speak with its mouth, but by controlling the energy in the air, the air produced specific vibrations to produce sound.
It has to be said that this kind of manipulation method is very delicate.
"Hello, Ms. Nina, this is my friend Ruth. Your English is very good. So you should have met other humans?"
King Kong continued.
……
Relying on the blessing of his own charm value, King Kong's affinity exploded, and he soon had a pleasant conversation with Nina, which made Ruth beside him feel incredible.
Through some conversation, King Kong learned that Nina learned English from a woman who lived on the shore of Loch Ness, and her voice also imitated that woman, which was hundreds of years ago.
As for how Nina knew each other, I have to start from the beginning.
It turns out that their group has lived in this underground world for an unknown number of years, but it can be determined that it is definitely a long, long time. In Nina's memory, more than 300 years ago, it had an ancestor who lived for more than 3000 years.
There are two main reasons for the presence of their group in Loch Ness above.
One is that nearly half of their water sources come from Loch Ness, so in order to ensure that there is no problem with this source, they will send people to Loch Ness every once in a while to dredge the waterways along the way and keep them open.
This is why King Kong felt that in this underground passage, his perception was disturbed to a certain extent. For thousands of years, their family has continuously dredged this passage leading to Loch Ness, leaving a deep energy in it. imprint.
Over time, the energy in this channel also becomes extremely active.
As for another reason, they found that the water quality and environment of Loch Ness were good, which was very suitable for the hatching and growth of their tribe when they were young.
Therefore, Loch Ness is still a spawning ground for them.
Every few years, they will send their clansmen to go to Loch Ness to lay eggs. At the same time, the interval of 30 to [-] years is enough to ensure that Loch Ness will produce a lot of food, so that the newly born clansmen can grow up quickly.
As for why the eggs were just left there, it was because their eggs were unusual, they would not be easily destroyed, and they would not be noticed by ordinary people. There have been no problems over the years, so it has become a habit.
