The Genius Mage - Chapter 382
Chapter 382: Was Full of Traps
“I think so too.” Audrey curled the corners of her lips.
This was what she wanted to talk to Lance about. But, at this moment, it was not convenient for her to say anything else, so Audrey left immediately.
Now that Spark City was temporarily safe, it was likely that wild beasts would not dare to trespass. However, Audrey was still worried about the situation in the cave, so she immediately returned to the forest.
It was completely silent at the entrance of the cave. Klein and the others were nowhere to be seen. Audrey felt inexplicably nervous and quickly entered the cave to check.
The cave was very dark. Audrey lit a lamp before she could barely see the path ahead. The cave was wide when she entered, but behind it was a small path. It seemed like she could only pass one person at a time.
Morris noticed this as well and immediately asked, “Do you want to go in?”
“Of course,” Audrey replied without hesitation. They had come here to find out why the beast had suddenly attacked Spark City. Perhaps the answer was hidden inside the cave. Audrey would never give up until she found it.
These words made Morris even more determined.
Since Audrey wanted to go in, he had to follow her.
Audrey threw all her belongings into her spatial pocket and gave a few more instructions to the Phoenix before walking on the small path.
The small path happened to be able to pass through one person. It was not crowded, but it was not spacious either. There were stone walls on both sides of the path, so there did not seem to be anything unusual.
As Audrey walked, she would occasionally turn her head to look at Morris. Seeing that he had been following her well, Audrey was finally relieved.
The path was very long. The two of them walked for more than ten minutes, but they did not reach the end. However, they could sense a strange aura from inside. This made Audrey even more curious about what was hidden in the cave and where Klein and the others had gone.
“There can’t be no end to this, right?” Morris frowned as he guessed.
“No,” Audrey answered firmly. If there were no end, then the path would not have any aura from the outside. Moreover, Klein and the others would not have disappeared for no reason. They had probably entered the cave.
Audrey could not wait to find them and ask them what was going on.
As they spoke, the two of them came to the end of the path. It was a stone wall.
Looking at the stone wall in front of them, they were stunned. Could this be the end?
“How do we get out of here?” Morris frowned and asked in confusion.
Audrey was also puzzled. Could there be nothing behind this path? Would that not be meaningless?
“There’s no rush. Let’s study it properly.” She quickly calmed down and walked to the stone wall. She carefully observed it. Just like the training maps they had visited, they all had their own traps. Audrey believed that this cave would not be so simple, there must be a trap.
Although the stone wall looked like it was completely blocked, Audrey could already sense the aura of the wind behind the stone wall when she was close to it.
“There should be a trap here. Let’s look around.” After fumbling around for a moment, Audrey looked at Morris with certainty in her eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile.
“You’re still the best.” Morris smiled and praised her. He followed Audrey’s words and started to look for traps in the surroundings.
The two of them quietly fumbled around the stone wall. At this moment, there was a sudden rolling sound above their heads. Audrey suddenly raised her head and realized that many large rocks were about to roll down.
The two of them had nowhere to hide on this narrow path.
“Morris, be careful!” Audrey hurriedly shouted. Before the stone was about to fall, she pulled Morris. The stone fell to the ground, stirring up layers of dust.
Morris immediately reacted. He gave Audrey a serious look and pulled her to his side. “You have to be careful too.”
As he spoke, more rocks rolled down. Dodging alone was not enough. Audrey simply took out her long sword. When the rocks fell, she thrust it forward. When the rocks collapsed, they would not hit.
However, the falling rocks still blocked most of the path.
Audrey and Morris finally managed to dodge all the rocks. The cave fell into silence again.
“It looks like this place is indeed filled with traps,” Morris said as he cleared the rocks under his feet.
“We have to be more careful to avoid touching any dangerous traps,” Audrey nodded and said with a heavy tone. The rocks from earlier had suddenly fallen for some unknown reason. It was clear how much danger there was here, and it was still unknown.
Morris nodded in agreement and continued to search for the traps.
“Look, is this it?” Audrey stood on a stone, raised her sword, and pointed at a stone on the stone wall above.
Morris immediately turned his gaze over. He was taller than Audrey, so he could naturally see the stone more clearly.
Thus, Morris naturally took Audrey’s sword and poked the stone. It seemed like it could indeed be pressed down. He looked at Audrey nervously. “I pressed it.”
“Okay.” Audrey also swallowed nervously. The anxiety in her eyes was abnormally obvious.
