Gate of the Cross

Chapter 7 Cave

"Xinjie, what are you doing here?"

When Gene came to the Adventurer Hotel with Xinjie, he couldn't help wondering, "We should go to the cave now, right? Look, I'm even ready for weapons.

Gene said, raising the long gun in his hand, waved it twice, and then carried it back to his back. "Although it is a national gun, I never thought that I could fight with a real weapon before!"

He looked very excited, "Hey, Xinjie, I'm asking you, why did you bring me here?" When he found that Xinjie was just walking upstairs without saying a word, he couldn't help but emphasize again.

"Fighten something." Xinjie answered like this and opened the door of his room.

"Ping things?" Gene was stunned and then looked into the house, "Do you mean this... your pet?"

"Not bad," Xinjie nodded, "Take it with you and be able to help in the battle."

Gene coughed, "I also know this... But Xinjie, don't you know that pets can be carried with you?"

Xinjie looked at the demon behind him and said, "It's disobedient."

Gene sighed, "I'm sure we won't be obedient... We're not trainers. How can the pet we just got be obedient, but why don't you take it with you?"

"Take it with you?" Xinjie noticed that Gene emphasized the carry-on this time, so he repeated it.

"Yes, just like this!" Gene stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers. A white light flashed in front of him, and a dark green bat appeared in Xinjie's sight.

"This is my pet. Although it is not obedient and sometimes does not obey orders in battle, you can put it in the pet space and summon it when you need it. Or, don't you know?"

"I don't know." Xinjie answered honestly.

"You're really straightforward," Gene rubbed his forehead. "But I don't think it's strange that you don't know this with your personality. Forget it, I'll teach you."

A few minutes later, Xinjie learned this so-called summoning spell. The so-called " put away pets" and "summon pets" are just one of the world's use of magic power. Although not everyone has a high affinity for magic like magic warriors, it is only used to put away pets. It's still completely enough.

"Well, let's go!" Gene Gray Mane waved a long gun in his hand and made a "Let's go" posture, waiting for Xinjie to respond, "I knew..." Looking at Xinjie completely ignoring him and leaving, "But... why am I used to it? It's only a while that he and I know each other for a while!"

It's useless to complain, unless it's the same as a directory.

The trial cave is just outside the west gate of France, under the 24th tunnel of the state-owned tunnel. Xinjie and Gene followed the map instructions. As soon as they left the gate, the first thing they saw was full of green. The greening work of the Kingdom of France has done a very good job. You may not feel it in France, but you will have a deeper feeling when you come outside the city.

"This is my first time out of town. How about Xinjie?" Gene was very excited as soon as he left the city, especially after seeing the lush trees, he was in a good mood and excited.

"For the first time." Xinjie casually said. Looking at the map, he found that he could actually find a place without a map, because after leaving the west gate, the whole land was almost covered with green vegetation, and only a path that had been trampled on was curved to the west. As the saying goes, there was no road in the world. If more people walked, it became a road. Walking along this path, it didn't take long for the two of them to reach the trial cave.

After verifying the passes of the two people, the doormen who had been criticized before put them into the trial cave and wished them to pass the trial and succeed in office.

As soon as I stepped into the basement floor of the cave, the obstacles specially set up here - those captured monsters jumped out. The so-called monsters are nothing more than demons active in this world. The small stone monster Xinjie met in the mourning hall before is a kind of demon clan. The same is true for the demons who test the cave, which are specially caught here to test the ability of adventurers.

Two fiery spiders appeared in front of them. In this world, all pets are demons like fire spiders before they are sealed, and only after they are sealed and domesticated can they become human pets. In fact, the dazzling pets seen on Flange Street were demons that were enemies of humans not long ago. And the people who seal them are also a special profession, and people call them sealers.

The two fiery red spiders in front of him really look like spiders. They have eight slender legs, red all over their bodies, and several white stripes at the root and tail of their legs. The only thing Xinjie cares about is that they have three pairs of six eyes on top of their heads, and this size is almost the size of a puppy. This is unimaginable in a normal mode world.

Xinjie and Gene looked at each other. Xinjie saw excitement and excitement in Gene's eyes, and Gene also saw it in Xinjie's eyes... Er, he couldn't see anything, and Xinjie had no expression at all.

"Hey, Xinjie, why are you so calm? What should we do if we meet the enemy now?"

"Battle." After saying that, Xinjie pulled out the long sword at his waist.

"This is unscientific." Gene muttered that Xinjie was ready to fight. He also took the long gun in his hand, summoned the pet bat by the way, and looked at the huge spider, "This must be a genetic mutation..."

"Hey!" After saying that, Gene shouted, moved forward bravely, and stabbed him with a shot. The tip of the gun picked up a fiery red spider and threw it aside. His pet bat also rushed forward in time and began to chase and beat the spider he picked aside.

It's just that the spider was not going to give up. It opened its mouth and sprayed a big white net and flew towards Gene's little bat. Although the little bat tried its best to dodge, it still got a part of it. Although it didn't touch it in person, the sticky feeling still made Gene's heart uncomfortable. Moreover, he found that after encountering the cobweb, the action of the little bat seemed to have been affected. It was not as flexible as before, and it seemed that there was a little stagnation between the actions.

But that's all. At this time, Gene came forward for the second time, shot directly, and sent the spider a few meters away. It struggled twice unwillingly, shook its body tremblingly twice, and eight legs suddenly kicked and curled up together - so it hung up.

Gene picked up a red stone that fell from the ground. This is a magic stone that fell from the monster and can be exchanged for money from Rococo. He stuffed the magic stone into his package and turned his head to look at Xinjie. He didn't know how the battle was going on his side.

"Uh..." He turned his head and saw that the body of a spider under Xinjie's feet was gradually disappearing, and Xinjie also turned his head. The two looked at each other. Gene was suddenly surprised to find that Xinjie did not summon his pet.

"Xinjie, where's your pet? Are you fighting over it alone?" Gene felt strange that he also relied on weapons and pets to kill the spider in front of him. He is well aware of his strength. Although he has not been exposed to real weapons in the original world, compared with ordinary people, he has been exposed to a lot of formal training for family reasons. Under such conditions, he is confident that ordinary teenagers can't fight like him, but Xinjie actually killed the spider by himself, and it looks very easy?

"I forgot." Xinjie stretched out his hand, summoned the demon that Gene had seen before, and motioned to Gene, "I found the stairs." With that, he walked forward, and the demon also flapped his wings and tried to keep up with the master.

"How natural is this guy?" Gene touched his head distressedly and greeted his pet to follow.

The trial cave is like a maze. Several times, the two of them were dizzy and could hardly find a way. What's more helpless is that the light here is very dark and the visibility is low. In addition to the fiery red spider, there is another monster bat.

This monster is much bigger than Gene's pet bat, but these two monsters still like to live in the dark. They have long adapted to this environment, so although the surroundings are dark, they have no impact on them. The two were attacked several times without protection.

The two did not know how many floors there were in the trial cave. If they had been entangled with the monster, they didn't know when they would fight, so they fought and fled, which accelerated the journey a lot. However, even so, when they came to the sixth underground floor, their whole body was already scarred. However, what surprised Jean was that no matter what happened, Xinjie always looked calm from beginning to end.

"Huh? Is it said that it has arrived?" After arriving at the sixth floor of the trial cave, the foreground objects suddenly changed, and a bright feeling suddenly appeared in the originally dark cave, and the rugged path became much wider.

After seeing this scene, Xinjie and Gene looked at each other. Both of them were guessing whether they had reached their destination, and Gene couldn't help saying it directly. After all, both of them are very tired after fighting in the dark for such a long time.

"Isn't this guy facial paralysis?" When Gene saw that Xinjie was still extremely calm, he couldn't help but suddenly have such an idea in his heart, but he would definitely not say this.

After taking a few more steps, Gene finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the two soldiers.

Many years later, when Gene told others about his experience, he described it like this. "The experience of this trial cave made me really integrate into the world. As for this guy, I have also began to doubt whether he can maintain that perverted calmness under any circumstances."
