Water droplets kept dripping from the top of the cave, relying on the slow wriggling of the terrain, converging into a small stream of water.

Xiao Shui Liu was still very weak and a little timid. She tentatively moved forward slowly. Joining many brothers and sisters along the way, Xiao Shui Liu became stronger little by little, and her courage became bigger and bigger as her body size changed.

She has become a little arrogant.

The small water stream smashed away several small sand grains blocking the road, and also 'caught' a small bug with many legs, and wrapped it around the bug all the way forward.

"Get out of the way!" Xiao Shuiliu raised his head proudly, pinched his waist and shouted, "Hmph, I'm very good! Be careful I knock you all down, and then make you all wet. Your clothes are wet. But you will catch a cold, so be afraid!"

She galloped forward with great strides, and then jumped into a narrow ditch that was dug the day after tomorrow.

There are more brothers and sisters in the ditch, only they are all dyed red. There is nothing wrong with red, it looks better than the gray clothes Xiao Shui Liu is wearing at this time. She quickly joined it and turned into a stream.

A scarlet creek.

"Hey, Barrett, what should we do now?" Weimar carefully retracted his head into the passage and asked Barrett who was standing beside him.

How to do? What do you mean? Oh, the situation at hand.

The barbarian shook his head vigorously, took his eyes away from the red water, and refocused his attention on the battle that was taking place in the cave.

This was a very tragic battle. One of them, Barrett and others, had met before, and had also briefly fought with them - those black-shelled Ant-Man tribe.

On the other side of the battle are the lowest creatures among all the dungeons in the Underdark - the cavemen.

Strictly speaking, cave people should be regarded as amphibians living underground. Although they can communicate in some simple language, their overall intelligence is not high, about the level of a 5-year-old human child.

Like many species that spend their entire lives underground, cavemen have similarly lost their sight over the course of evolution. Instead, there is an extra developed sense of hearing, smell, and touch. Cavemen always have a green mucus on their bodies to keep their skin moist. Their limbs are quite weak, and although they are good at digging caves, it is difficult to carry weights, so the overall digging speed is not high.

Cave people have developed jaws and sharp, small teeth, and have a wide range of diets. Moss, lichens and mushrooms are their main food, but cave people prefer meat, insects are also counted.

It is worth mentioning that cavemen can breed twice a year. As long as there is enough water in the ground, they can have (harmonious) love (harmonious) mating at any time, and produce a large number of offspring.

A single female caveman can lay thousands or even tens of thousands of eggs at a time, but very few of them can mature, and the number depends on the amount of food.

The conquered cavemen are the best drudgery in the underground city. They are timid, never resisting, and are numerous. As long as there is enough food and water, this drudgery can do almost as much as he wants. They do the hardest work all their lives, even their descendants.

However, the cavemen tribe in front of them does not seem to have been conquered, and their battles are still bloody. Led by a large (compared to the other cavemen) cavemen chieftain, they were barely able to keep up with the black ant-men.

Unfortunately, this weak race is really not very good at fighting. There are hundreds of cavemen participating in the battle at the moment, and the number of black ant-men is only a fraction of them, only fifty or sixty.

In this way, the caveman was able to withstand the offensive of Ant-Man and draw a tie with the opponent.

More importantly, there are many cavemen who don't even have the roughest stone weapons, and can only pounce on them with tiny teeth to gnaw. Although the mouthful of tiny teeth looked quite sharp, it was not very useful against Ant-Man's shiny black carapace unless it bit into their joints.

In the scene, the cavemen fell one by one, and it took a long time for the Ant-Man to fall one by one. The scarlet blood pooled into rivers and flowed into the ditches that the cavemen had painstakingly carved.

There may not be much to see in the short term, but if the battle continues like this, Barrett estimates that the side with the largest number may not end well.

"What should we do?" Weimar asked Barrett again. "Let's get out of here, or wait until they're both hurt and take it all?"

Barrett observed the situation of the battle and calculated silently in his heart, but did not say anything for a while. However, William was the first to express his views.

"Take it all? The key is what to eat?" the young man said seriously, "Guess who of the cavemen and the ant-man might have gold coins on them, and who can be worth some gold coins? This kind of creature is of interest, so let's ignore it, the ant-man corpse might be worth a few bucks, but it's not enough to look at compared to our reward, like you said before, we don't need to take the risk Do extra tasks."

"You really hold grudges!" Weimar pouted and said, "No wonder I still remember those old things after so long."

"you……"

"Shh, don't be noisy!" Barrett whispered. These two guys seem to have quarreled more and more since the kissing incident of a certain girl.

The barbarian did not pay attention to these things, but silently calculated in his heart. William is right about one thing, the benefits of participating in the battle are indeed not high, and there is no need to make extra efforts for this big benefit.

"It looks like this battle will not be decided for a while, we can't wait here like this. Of course, there is no need to join it. See the passages with a few vines hanging on the opposite side, we Stick to the rock wall, sneak around from the edge of the battlefield, and enter the passage." Barrett said to the crowd, "They hit them, we do ours, and we don't interfere with each other."

"Ok, no problem."

A few young people nodded, and crept behind Barbarian, slowly advancing along the edge of the battlefield.

"By the way~lightnovelpub.net~ Barrett, I have a question to ask." William's subtle voice came from behind him.

"What's the problem?" Barbarian responded in the same low voice.

"What if, I mean if, they attack us?" William asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, a chitinous poison spear flew straight towards Barrett. The barbarian turned his head to dodge in time, the poison spear stuck directly on the rock wall in front of him, and the tail was still shaking slightly.

Immediately afterwards, another slender poisonous spear struck behind Barrett, "Be careful." The barbarian turned his head and shouted. With a muffled sound, the poisonous spear was successfully blocked by Weimar's shield.

Then, there were about ten more black ant-men, rushing towards Barrett and the others.

Alas, why bother. You fight yourselves well, why come to provoke us again? Barrett shook his head inwardly, I didn't really want to, but you are killing yourself!
