Chapter 1318 A Battle of Wits and Courage!

The crisp sound of ice breaking was not very conspicuous in the increasingly lively woods. At most, it would only disturb the Grabilosaurs (beetles) moving nearby.
The mechanical puppet that created this movement stood on the spot and glanced around.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, he entered a nearby cave made of thick tree roots.
After a rustling sound, the surroundings returned to calm again.
Witte, who was high in the sky, saw everything happening below.
"Cave..."
Werther's brow furrowed.
The mechanical puppets he dealt with before were about five hundred meters in size, and the mechanical puppet just now could only barely get into the cave.
In other words, if he doesn't shrink his body, he won't be able to get in.
In addition, although he has probing magic.
But this kind of magic has always been something to be wary of, not to mention that the other party is a shady dark alchemist.
Witte thought for a moment, and then took out the breath tracking magic array and some puppet core fragments that he had retained before.
Cut off the elemental breath from the fragments and inject it into the breath tracking magic array...
Soon, several light points appeared in Werther's mind, feeling like activated spatial anchor points, clearly presented in front of Werther.
This is the effect of this breath tracking magic circle.
"One, two...there are thirteen alchemy puppets in total, which is a bit small!"
Werther murmured, and soon found an alchemy puppet with a unique action pattern among these alchemy puppets. The distance between it and Werther was not very far.
and……
Witte glanced at the tree root cave, then turned to look at the direction from which the mechanical puppet came.
"He even made some noise, so he's quite cautious!"
Witte sneered, turned around, followed the movements of the alchemy puppet, and continued tracking. This should be the mechanical puppet he was tracking before.
Following the twisting and winding movement pattern of the mechanical puppet, Witte was basically certain that there was a complex crypt system beneath the woods.
Thinking of this, Witte continued to track the mechanical puppet while paying attention to the other alchemy puppets.
Generally, there are only a few ways to form a complex crypt system.
underground water sources, wind-carved caves, volcanic activity, and biological activity.
Witte himself has an affinity for the fire element, so the possibility of volcanic activity was immediately ruled out.
Although the climate of Olivia continent changes greatly, the wind here is not very strong. What's more, the movement of the wind-eroded cave is actually very loud.
Therefore, the possibility of wind erosion of the cave can also be ruled out.
Combining the special climate conditions of snowing at night and melting during the day, as well as the surface water source that is not very common in the Olivia continent, it is not difficult to guess that the groundwater system of the Olivia continent should be relatively Rich.
In extreme climates, most dragon beasts are actually not suitable for living on the ground. As a result, biological activities are likely to be concentrated underground.
From these aspects, the possibility of underground water sources and biological activities forming a burrow system is not small.
And these two crypt systems have the same characteristics.
That is, it is connected in all directions and has many entrances and exits!
If he is a dark alchemist hiding in such a crypt system, the entrances and exits must be strictly controlled.
So, in this case...
Soon, several alchemy puppets with small ranges of movement became the focus of Werther's attention.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Werther stopped, then frowned, and the mechanical puppet he had been following stopped.
After waiting for a moment, Werther's frown deepened.
The mechanical puppet changed its action mode and switched to patrol mode.
"well!"
Werther sighed, and then his brows widened again.
It is not difficult to guess that this should be the completion of the task handover.
As for the person to be handed over, it is either the dark alchemist or an alchemy puppet using other natural magic items as the core of the puppet.
Moreover, it is most likely the latter.
After all, if he wanted to occupy such a huge crypt system with peace of mind, the number of alchemy puppets would definitely not be the thirteen he perceived.
With a slight irritated flick of his tail, Werther turned his attention to those alchemy puppets with limited range of motion.
These places are most likely entrances and exits.
To be honest, if he didn't want to survive, Werther would have wanted to give this place an ice burial. Absolute Zero might also do...
Thinking of this, Werther grinned, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
He made it so troublesome, and when he found this guy, he had to deal with him.
As for cruelty...
Haha, no matter how cruel a group of guys who don't take dragon lives seriously are, what's more, Witte is a giant dragon, talking about cruelty with a dragon... Haha!
While thinking about how to torture this dark alchemist, Witte looked at all the selected locations.
But unfortunately, Werther's luck was not that good this time.
The chosen location was either too small for the entrance or not an entrance at all.
Back to the sky above the cave formed by the tree roots at the beginning, Witt frowned as he looked down.
This is actually the largest entrance he found.
Could it be that he really had to shrink his body?
Witt was very unhappy in his heart, but this matter was very important and related to his subsequent plan.
"Alas!"
With a sigh, the fierce light in Witt's eyes became even more fierce, but he put away the air-breaking thorn, and then his body began to shrink.
He was forced to sacrifice himself for the plan, and the guy inside deserved to die!
Since he chose to shrink his body, Witt no longer hesitated and simply shrank his body to the smallest, that is, the form of a young dragon that had just broken out of its shell, about one meter long.
However, although Witt is now shrunk to about one meter, he is completely different from when he was just born.
Just when Witt's eyes were fierce and he was about to go down directly, he suddenly froze.
Then, Witt looked himself up and down.
After thinking for a while, he turned off the "night light" on his chest and looked at the gray-white dragon scales without a trace of metallic luster in the sunken area of his chest.
A slightly absurd plan emerged in Witt's mind.
At this moment, he was a silver dragon that had just hatched after a failed mutation!
If he appeared in the territory of a dark alchemist in this image, what kind of action would the other party take...
Thinking of this, Witt's eyes became brighter and brighter.
After throwing away his majesty, he seemed to have opened up a new world!
