Chapter 312: 124. Sightseeing tourism? _4
“I can turn into a skeleton to avoid the detection of the aberrations. Don’t worry about me.”
“Alright, be careful, Ray Lee. I’ll look around for other clues.”
Noland Lee did not use the “Bone Spirit Flight Technique” to go to the ground level.
He always remembered his own identity of a Matryoshka figure:
A wandering wizard, the “Sleeping Monument Master,” who prefers using soul energy and physical power.
In order to fit his Matryoshka identity, Noland Lee climbed over the rooftop railing and jumped across the balconies on each floor. With his sturdy physique and tough constitution, he easily reached the exterior of the first floor of the building.
Waving to Philia above, Noland Lee stepped into the pitch -black Grand Hall on the first floor.
He activated “Breath of the Dead” to enter a skeleton form and started “Life and Death Tracking,” seeing through the ground beneath his feet.
There were no living creatures, lost souls, or corpses in the underground space.
Without any fear, Noland Lee stepped into the underground space covered in dried mucus.
“Interesting.”
Noland Lee crouched down, pulled out a dagger, and lifted a piece of dried mucus from the ground.
Inside this underground space, the body fluids secreted by the aberrations had completely dried up in the dry air on the sandy ground, losing all their moisture.
A light sweep and poke with the dagger could easily turn the mucus into powder.
What does this mean…
It meant that once the smooth “skin” lost its “moisture” nourishment, it would quickly crack and age. And the aberrations themselves were the “water source” that nourished the mucus.
It was clear that some time had passed since the last time an aberration had appeared here.
Noland Lee secretly pondered:
“I have a feeling that once the aberrations got their hands on the Bone-mending Wand, they moved their entire nest. Could these aberrations in the abandoned building have come here specifically to receive the
Bone-mending Wand? This is ridiculous.”
Many question marks popped up in Noland Lee’s mind.
He kept his cool, moving forward, stepping on the cracked, dry mucus carpet and entered the pitch-black tunnel.
At the same time, on the rooftop of the abandoned building.
Philia cast a flight spell, flew off the rooftop with the support of the night wind, and landed on the ground outside the wall of the abandoned building.
She cast a wind-type magic on herself to increase her running speed, and with the wind elemental energy swirling around her, she ran into the distance.
Her figure soon disappeared on the gentle slope near the abandoned building.
About 10 minutes later, she returned to the abandoned building along the same route ana reacnea tne roortop tnrougn tne rngnt spell.
Noland Lee waited for her by the magic car and asked as soon as she saw her return:
“How’s the situation, Philia? Did you find any clues?”
“Yes, I found out that the Bone-mending Wand indeed came from the Blade Mountain Range in a straight line. The person carrying it had a very clear goal, which is this abandoned building. It’s as if the person carrying the Bone-mending Wand had an appointment with the aberrations here.” Philia asked:
“What about you? What’s the situation underground? Where are the aberrations?”
Lee Noland shook his head, gesturing and said:
“The path down there was blocked. I walked about 20-30 meters along the underground corridor and reached the end, which was a wall made of stone, sand, and mud. Why don’t we drive the magic car and follow the trail left by the Bone-mending Wand towards the Blade Mountain Range to explore?”
“We have no choice then.”
Philia unlocked the magic car, opened the door, and sat in the driver’s seat.
Noland Lee sat in the passenger seat.
The car door closed, and the magic car entered invisibility mode.
The extremely faint call came out from inside the car and was torn apart by the evening wind on the sandy ground before it could drift a few meters away.
The magic car shook a few times, soon becoming calm and flying towards the heavens with a slight distortion of light and shadow.
After the magic car left, an invisible object came to the rooftop and silently waited for the next “guest.”
Obviously, the “Lee Noland” who had just spoken to Philia wasn’t the real Noland Lee.
So, where was the real Noland Lee?
Inside the underground space, Noland Lee couldn’t help but complain:
“What a convoluted path! I’ve turned dozens of corners, passed through no less than ten forks in the road, and still haven ‘t reached the end of the tunnel. Besides, where have the aberrations gone? There’s nothing but dried mucus carpets all over the ground.”
“Never mind, I’ll go back and rendezvous with Philia first to see if she has any new discoveries. We can make preparations, and then I’ll go further underground with her.”
Noland Lee activated the ‘Mind Beacon” and sensed his iron cigarette cases left behind.
These iron cigarette cases were originally used as “CCTV cameras,” but now they have become Noland Lee’s props for marking his path.
After activating the “Mind Beacon,” he could clearly sense the iron cigarette cases in the tunnel.
As for those three iron cigarette cases in Union City, Noland Lee couldn’t sense them.
He tested this on his way to the Savage Stone Wasteland.
When the distance between him and the iron cigarette case was about 10 kilometers, he could no longer sense it.
10 kilometers was the maximum sensing distance between the “Mind Beacon” and him.
The ‘Mind Beacon” was Level 1 now. Upgrading it should increase the maximum sensing distance.
As Noland Lee walked towards the ground, he retrieved his iron cigarette cases.
Three minutes later, Noland Lee, who had been jogging, returned to the ground and saw “Philia” waiting on the rooftop..
