Chapter 91: Strange Cave
This afternoon, the Turtle did not do anything.
It was like a holiday for the whole afternoon.
Compared to his previous life, his new life with Mcgee was his heaven now.
And more importantly, he could eat his fill every meal now, so he did not have to worry about what to eat next after eating one meal like before.
After thinking for a while, the Turtle felt relieved.
In fact, all he needed was someone to care about him.
Now he could live a good life and get what he wanted!
Thinking of this, the Turtle turned around and stretched out his hand to Mcgee.
“System notification: Due to your guidance, the Water Wave Turtle’s loyalty to you has increased by 10.”
Mcgee was stunned for a moment before he extended his hand and placed it on the Water Turtle’s small hand.
Finally, the Water Turtle’s loyalty toward him had increased from 50 to 60.
After standing for a while more, Mcgee felt a little sleepy.
“Go back and rest early. After getting some sleep, I’ll bring you to increase your strength tomorrow. I still need your help to explore the water.”
After saying that, Mcgee gave the Water Turtle a thumbs up and went back to his room to sleep.
A faint light seemed to flash in the Water Turtle’s eyes. At the same time, it turned around and left.
Early the next morning, Mcgee had already woken up.
The Little Spirit Fox woke him up.
The reason was straightforward. The Little Spirit Fox was hungry, and she wanted to eat something.
Helpless, Mcgee could only get up to prepare food. After they finished breakfast, he looked at the time and realized that it was getting late.
So Mcgee was ready to set off.
His home on the highest point of the island could clearly see the changes on the island.
Although the island was originally a mountain range, after the rain.
Some of the potholes on the mountain had also become ponds.
This time, Mcgee and the others were prepared to explore that pond.
It could be considered as a rehearsal of their ability to enter the water in the future.
“Little Spirit Fox, you guys follow me. Today, we’ll go out to explore.”
Hearing this, not only the Little Spirit Fox but even the Water Turtle revealed an excited expression.
It could be seen in his eyes that he was full of desire for the bridge.
Feeling their enthusiasm, Mcgee did not waste too much time and directly walked in that direction.
Walking down from the top was very fast. In just half an hour, they had already entered the pool.
Fortunately, the water was not very high. They had only reached Mcgee’s waist.
The only uncertainty was whether there was any danger in the water.
“Steel Fairy, look around and see if there’s anything good.”
The Steel Fairy nodded and flew into the air to look around.
Soon, the Steel Fairy’s eyes lit up as if it had discovered something.
Then, it shouted at Mcgee and flew forward without hesitation.
Not far ahead, there was a small cave.
Water kept flowing down for an unknown period of time, but the cave was still the same.
One could imagine how deep it was.
The Steel Fairy pointed at the cave.
“Master, I can feel a strong wind element inside.”
“Wind element? Can you feel the breath of life inside?”
The Steel Fairy shook her head slightly.
“This cave is too deep. I can only hear the sound of the wind inside, but I can’t feel anything inside.”
Hearing this, Mcgee also made some preparations. Naturally, he would not give up on this cave.
Now that they were on the path of survival, of course, they would not let go of any treasures.
Even if there was danger, they still had to go for it.
First, they made the remaining spider silk from the Heavenly Eye Spider Queen into rope.
Then, they connected all the rope and walked to the side of a relatively thick tree.
After securing the rope, he tied them to each beast.
This simple climbing tool was completed.
“I have to say, this rope made of spider silk is very strong.”
Mcgee looked at the rope with great satisfaction. He even pulled it and found that the rope was actually elastic.
“Okay, I’ll go down first. You guys follow me down one by one.”
“Spiders, use the spider silk to hang the cave and slowly descend. If you find anything wrong, immediately pull us up.”
The Spider Queen nodded.
After saying that, a ball of fire ignited on Mcgee’s hand and slowly formed a small red ball.
The fireball skill had now become a moving light source.
Following that, Mcgee grabbed the rope and tied a dead knot on his waist before sliding down without hesitation.
His sliding speed was very slow. Basically, he would pause for a moment after descending.
He checked his surroundings to see if there was any danger.
But fortunately, other than the fact that his surroundings were a little wet, there was no danger at all.
Moreover, this thing was tiny. So if it were an invader, that huge body probably would not be able to come down.
From the looks of it, the Heavenly Eye Spider Queen could only stay outside.
As the alt.i.tude slowly decreased, the sound of the wind could be heard from the surroundings.
The sound of the wind was very obvious. It seemed to be blowing through the cracks in the surroundings.
But there was only one cave here. So, where did this crack come from?
Behind Mcgee, the Little Spirit Fox and the others also grabbed the spider silk and slowly slid down.
They followed behind Mcgee.
They had landed about 40-50 meters, and they were already deep in the mountains.
If they were to land for some distance, they would probably have to go deep into the ground.
Finally, after Mcgee and the others landed for more than 60 meters, they felt that they were on solid ground.
There was a pool below, but the water was not very high. It was just that it had not crossed their feet just now.
Mcgee had a puzzled look on his face. Logically speaking, it should not have happened.
There was a cave on the mountain. After so long of precipitation, there would at least be a pool of water that could drown people.
How could it be that this little bit of water had just pa.s.sed by his feet?
Therefore, there must be another exit in the surroundings.
“Little Spirit Fox, I’ll have to trouble you to light up the place. The flames will illuminate the surroundings and then carefully look for a cave that can lead us forward.”
“Alright, master, leave it to me.”
After the Little Spirit Fox finished speaking, she fiercely spat out a mouthful of flames.
At the same time, she circled.
Sparks slowly drifted down, illuminating the entire area red.
At the same time, Mcgee could keenly see that there seemed to be many cracks on the surrounding rocks.
But they did not see an obvious cave entrance.
“It seems that the wind is blowing through those cracks.”
