Sword Sorcery

Chapter 269 Underground
Swish!
Aaron felt himself falling rapidly, and in desperation, he saw that the scene above had become blurred, thinking that Staci would not notice the situation below.

So, Aaron touched the dark sword at his waist with his right hand, ready to deal with various situations——

"Huh? The air has become humid"

Aaron moved his nose and felt that the moisture in the air had increased significantly. At the same time, in the dark and dark scene below, some 'umbrella'-shaped objects gradually appeared.

The next moment, Aaron 'slammed' towards them——

bang bang bang! ! !
Under the protection of the shadow screen, Aaron was like an elastic ball. It first hit the 'umbrella', then bounced up, and then hit another 'umbrella' next to it, and continued to repeat the above process. .

Along the way, Aaron kept repeating the cycle of 'repeated horizontal jumps', allowing him to fully experience a real-life version of space billiards.

But that's all.
As Aaron is an elemental wizard, this kind of impact has no lethality on him. It can't even break through the defensive cover of the 'Shadow Screen', let alone force him to resort to the means of 'Sword Wizard'.

As long as the normal wizard means, all these troubles can be dealt with.

"It turns out that these things are mushrooms."

Aaron also took the opportunity to see the true face of the 'umbrellas' during the 'repeated horizontal jump' - they are all giant mushrooms with a huge mushroom cap, and the 'umbrellas' that Aaron bumped into were mushrooms their mushroom caps.

Because of the dim light, Aaron couldn't see the color of the mushroom clearly. He could only see small particles growing on the mushroom's cap, which opened like a mouth, absorbing moisture from the air to supplement his own nutrition.

"Umbrella Mushroom?"

Aaron identified the true species of these mushrooms. Umbrella mushrooms are a relatively common witchcraft material, suitable for many spell-casting mediums of the negative wind system, and are very popular among wizards of the negative wind system.

As a wizarding academy specializing in negative wind, it is not surprising that the Hand of the Storm has planted 'Wind Umbrella Mushrooms' on a large scale. Of course, this is not the point, what Aaron really cares about is.
There should be an underground area below!
Aaron fell from the collapse of the botanical garden. Logically speaking, even if the entire castle floor was bombed, it would not have allowed Aaron to "fall" for so long. After all, the height of the castle is limited, and it is impossible to fall freely too long.

There is only one explanation -

The bottom of the botanical garden is not the rest of the castle, but the underground college area!

The academy district of the Misty Swamp is built under the swamp, and the academy district of Stormhand is also built under the castle. The residential buildings and other facilities above the surface are for vassal forces to live in, not the real academy district.

After Aaron judged the following situation, he was not in a hurry - he originally planned to find a way to go to the underground academy area, but it was saved a lot of effort by Stacy's interference.

Because elemental wizards can break through thin walls, but they can't break through strata with a thickness of more than ten meters. Thanks to Stacie and Barrett's all-out fighting, Aaron just saved a 'distance'.

"It's almost underground!"

Aaron has been paying attention to the scene below, and when he saw a large water mirror appeared below, he knew that he was ready for a 'forced landing'——

boom! ! !
A black ball smashed into the water hard, splashing a large stream of water, and there were layers of waves on the surface of the water, which shocked some small creatures hiding in the dark and fled away in panic.

With the help of the 'Shadow Curtain' and the lake water, Aaron neutralized most of the impact force, and soon he resurfaced, poking his head out to observe the surrounding situation——

A forest of parasol mushrooms, with no land underneath, is a lake, which seems to be a 'swamp' area.

"Trouble, underwater operations are not a good choice for shadow wizards."

Aaron couldn't help frowning, because the environment was not conducive to his ability to display his strength, especially the "sword witch" system that relied on melee combat, and his ability to adapt to the underwater environment might not be as good as a normal wizard.

"I have to leave quickly, this place is worthless anyway."

Aaron used the chip to scan around carefully, and found that there were no precious resources in this place except for umbrella mushrooms, and they were all common things.

So, Aaron sensed the direction of the airflow in the air and chose a direction to swim.
Sure enough, not long after, Aaron saw a bank and swam over quickly. When he stepped on the solid ground, the stone in his heart was finally let go—now, Aaron's strength is not affected by the environment up.

"Looks like a flora?"

Aaron looked at the surrounding environment and found that there was a large forest of plants, and there was no clear pointing sign, which made him frown: "Trouble, it seems that I have to find my own way."

After finding the way, Aaron planned to take a stroll in the plant area first, looking for useful resources that the other party had missed.

The personnel of the Hand of the Storm must have taken away some precious resources. However, the amount carried by the other party is limited, and it is impossible to evacuate the entire plant area. There must be some fish that slipped through the net.

Therefore, Aaron chose a direction and started to move forward on the soft soil. The surrounding plants were generally large in size, and some of the largest plants were no smaller than the parasol mushroom.

When ordinary people walk among these plants, they will have a strange feeling that they have been 'shrunk'.

Aaron is used to this.

Because the plant area of ​​the Misty Swamp is almost the same situation, the plants cultivated by the wizards rarely look normal, and some plants even don't look like plants. The situation of the hand of the storm is quite 'normal' .

salad salad
Aaron's walking speed was not fast, and his steps were full of caution and caution. Obviously, he adopted a safe search method—because he was the first group of 'visitors' to come to the underground academy area.

At this time, other wizards of the coalition army should be staying in the castle, looking for the entrance to the underground area——

They didn't have the good luck of Aaron, they caught up with Stacey and Barrett' teaming up' to break through the thick ground, and just opened a 'shortcut' passage.

With no 'allies' to grab the spoils with him, Aaron didn't have to act too eagerly.

"what?"

Suddenly, Aaron stopped and twisted his ears a few times, as if he was listening to something. The next moment, he turned his head to look in a certain direction of the forest, with a smile on the corner of his mouth——

"Looks like I found a living one."

Before the words fell, Aaron's figure flashed and disappeared in the shadow of the forest
