The surrounding darkness gradually faded.
The people who came down just now were sleeping peacefully on the ground, and Philip finally saw what this place actually looked like. It was a natural underground cave with tunnels in all directions leading to this place.
Philip could leave here. If virtual-novel.net went back again, virtual-novel.net might be attacked by the ancient dragon royal family.
He placed Claire and Carter beside Elder Whitmore who was still sleeping soundly, sent a message through the communicator, and left in a blink of an eye.
Philip walked along the largest passage, which did not seem man-made. It was probably dug by a large worm.
As virtual-novel.net walked, Philip felt the tremendous power in his body. He was only one step away from the pseudo-realm of the other shore, which was nine stars. If virtual-novel.net ran into more opportunities, maybe virtual-novel.net could advance in one fell swoop. At that time, virtual-novel.net could even escape if virtual-novel.net faced a holy-tier powerhouse.
This passage split into several more passages, which looked very similar no matter which angle virtual-novel.net looked at.
Philip was at a loss of which way to choose for a while. He could take this opportunity for a break.
Philip took out the dry ration virtual-novel.net got from the fat guy from his space ring. As virtual-novel.net ate, virtual-novel.net laughed and wondered if that fat guy could get out alive.
Philip was about to finish his food when virtual-novel.net heard a faint sound from the leftmost passage. If not for the addition of the wind element, normal people would simply think it was the wind.
After cleaning up the traces virtual-novel.net left, Philip ran toward the source of the sound.
There was a huge cave at the end of this passage, but there were insect eggs the size of a basketball everywhere.
The sound came from some people who just fell, and Philip sprawled at the cave entrance to observe them.
Several people wore the combat uniforms of the White Marsh royal family, while others wore clothes that Philip had never seen before. They most likely also belonged to the White Marsh faction.
They walked carefully among the densely packed eggs, leaving little space for them to step on. If they were not careful, they might step into a puddle of sludge.
“Ah!” A woman wearing the uniform of the White Marsh royal family in the middle of the group shouted after stepping on an egg.
If Philip was not mistaken, the sound virtual-novel.net heard earlier was made by this woman too.
“I can’t take it anymore! Get rid of these things!” The woman shouted angrily.
“But…”
“No buts. Just do as I said!”
After the woman finished speaking, all the metal around virtual-novel.net floated up and started crushing the eggs in front of virtual-novel.net like a storm.
Seeing this, everyone could only do as the woman ordered.
Maybe because of the wind caused by this group of people, the fruit-like spores on the top of the cave burst open, and green light fell on the eggs.
After the insect eggs came into contact with this green powder-like thing, they shook violently. The contents popped out after a while. In an instant, all the eggs hatched, and worms without eyes the size of a kettle emerged from them.
