Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 723: 230. Nail Clipper Box_3

On the walls on both sides of the tunnel, there was a dark narrow entry or a twisted crack every couple of meters.

Noland Lee activated “Life and Death Tracking” and swept a look across these dark areas.

He saw some small underwater serpents that were inhabiting those areas, but no larger sea serpents.

This was a bit strange.

Noland Lee asked Hadley Grant about it, but he also couldn’t quite figure out why, only mentioning that as long as they didn’t venture into the dark areas, they wouldn’t be attacked by the sea snakes.

Seeing Hadley only worried about young sea snakes in the dark areas, Noland set aside this peculiar phenomenon for now.

When the two reached a fork in the road, an aggressive undercurrent emerged from somewhere, brushed past Noland, and rushed towards the tunnel on the other side of the junction.

Two pillars of water jetted out from under Hadley’s feet, carrying Noland out of the undercurrent and leaving the turbulent sea water behind him.

“Good thing you also know the ‘Deep Sea Swimming’ Magic Spell. You reduced the resistance of the undercurrent to the minimum. Otherwise, I think pulling you out of the undercurrent would have cost me a lot of mana.”

Hadley looked back at Noland and muttered, then continued swimming ahead.

The further they went, the more relics from the Dragon Clan were scattered on the ground.

After enduring several more “ambushes” by undercurrents, they finally reached the giant cave rumored to hold many Draconian collectibles.

Just as Hadley had described, this place was extensive, with an estimated width of over 500 meters and a height of more than 20 meters, making it a truly large cavern.

There were several five-to-six-meter tall mounds on the ground, all made up of Draconian collectibles brought here by undercurrents.

Just as Noland arrived, a powerful undercurrent surged through the cave.

This current swept up more than half of the mounds on the ground, causing Draconian collectibles to float around like confetti.

It took a full three minutes before the floating Draconian collectibles slowly fell down, reforming into several mounds and a carpet that covered the ground.

“We’ve arrived, Jarvis.” Hadley pulled out several bowl-sized metal nails from his magic pouch:

“I’ll first drive these nails into the walls of the cave. They are our safety pins against the undercurrents. When you’re searching for collectibles, you must always ensure that the rope around your waist is connected to the metal nails, so you won’t be swept away by the undercurrents here. You saw it just now, didn’t you? The undercurrents here are far more ferocious than the ones we encountered earlier, and no one knows their patterns.”

Hadley cautioned a few words, took out a hammer, and started fixing the metal nails onto the wall, creating a crisp clanging sound.

Having nothing to do, Noland looked around.

That previous undercurrent had surged in from a deep hole in the cave.

Inside that hole, there was no moss emitting blue light, only darkness. It was rather eerie.

the rest of the cave were not much better, with only a few areas where bioluminescent
