章 117: Sylrin's Cave

The tunnels below were littered with many crystals that cast bright light over the large cave. But the scene was one of chaos.

The dry grass that covered the ground had burnt to crisp, making it difficult to see due to the black smoke in the air and poison slime everywhere. 

Most of the tunnel entrances were clogged with the bodies of suffocated mimics, and it was hard to move without bumping into invisible obstacles. Fortunately, the noxious fumes did not seem to have any effect on me.

I collected their corpses along the way and some of the unusual light crystals as well, being careful to skip across parts of the tunnels that hissed with heat. It was difficult to see the top because of the smoke but I continued through to find the exit and began to climb out of the hole. 

Near the surface, I spotted the trail left by the mimic's large body that had emerged from the hole.
