Chapter 75 The temperature and sound of the underground
Faced with this situation, the city can only rely on Anatasia to comfort it.
Although she is just a little girl, she is also the confidant of the city's lord Lan Long Blu, so whether it is the leader of the semi-ogreat Ogre, the leader of the Lizardman, or even the Blue Dragon who rushed to help, they all give her face.
———————————————
"It seems that we should not go back to New Schals City before we figure it out!"
Bru turned around and looked at everyone helplessly and said.
After seeing the red copper dragon, Krisanna could not disagree with her brother's decision.
After looking around, Bru looked around and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, let's take a look at what's here first, if everyone agrees."
Everyone else nodded, while Agnes chuckled and said, "Is this your choice? I really don't consider throwing away the artifact, don't cause so much trouble?"
Bru's eyes glowed, and he also saw that Silver Dragon was a kind reminder, but he didn't like others to interfere in himself like this.
This is also his pride as a dragon now. No matter whether he is wrong or not, he doesn't want to give up easily.
"Agnes, you just need to consider whether to follow me or not, and not how I should go."
Agnes shrugged her shoulders, and her beautiful face felt helpless. "Okay, I know, you are not the kind of person who has already walked such a long way, but has turned around and left after he has walked such a long way!"
Krisanna said nothing. She had already acted habitually according to her brother's wishes. Even if she was caught in this vortex, she did not think that the other party was dragging her down.
She patted the dimensional bag hanging on her belt, and then thought that if it was really the same as Agnes said in this Wild Hammer Canyon, her dream perfect nest would have hundreds of gold bricks.
When she thought of this, she would dare to go alone even if there was an ancient white dragon in front of her - of course this is a scene. If it was a white dragon above the prime of life, they would still have to wait for Lux to fight or wait for Oriana to wake up.
After everyone prepared, Agnes began to take them forward.
The Silver Dragon Princess was not as flirty as a human princess at the moment. She stepped into the depths of the Wild Rail Canyon, and in order to take care of Macaria, she was still holding a burning torch in her hand to illuminate.
Of course, the torch held by Princess Silver Dragon is not an ordinary item. This torch has an immortal attribute and has some exorcism effects. It can also use the fireball technique twice a day, making it a rare treasure.
Following her was Krisanna, who looked cold and longed for treasure in her heart.
Next was Blu who followed slowly. He watched with interest as he gradually deepened, and the surroundings gradually became like a maze. Now they have walked into the underground without realizing it.
As Bru, who is second only to Lux in the team, Macaria, who is following him, only felt an unspeakable sense of security.
Because it may cause White Dragon's attacks here at any time, Bru did not let Macaria be in the front as a detective, but let her stay by her side.
After all, this is my own girl, and it is not a friendly place like the ruins of Bahamut before. The necessary protection measures are the ones.
These walkways underground are like other dwarf buildings, not flat and accessible.
Whenever Bru and his team walked along the walkway for a few meters, there was a wall next to the walkway that was concave.
Some of the recesses on these walls are just traces left by normal excavation of the aisle, while others extend all the way out. In the invisible darkness, these recesses and other underground passages are created together to form a complex channel network.
Sometimes some boards appear on the side of the walls of the aisle. These boards are sometimes concave and sometimes protrude. These are designed by dwarves to increase the shadows under the torch, creating an isolation and protection, and a dark atmosphere.
This style is actually the same as the underground nest style that Lanlong likes. No outsider can always choose the right path in this countless forks and intersections and composite tunnels.
Even if they are both dwarves, it is impossible to find the right path in such an underground passage with knowledge of dwarf miners.
This place is like a maze that circulates around, making unfamiliar outsiders never find the builder's residence, wealth, food and other important places.
After walking for a while, in this dull and not very good aisle, everyone began to look at Agnes curiously.
This is also because when everyone completely forgot where they came from, where they went, and what they were going to do after just squandering twenty forks and intersections, the Silver Dragon Princess who only led the way continued to walk at a very natural and exaggerated speed.
The unhesitant expression from her choosing the road was as familiar as returning to her own nest.
In particular, Agnes also turned around from time to time to warn them, "There is a rolling stone in front, you should be careful not to step on that stone." "There is a hole there. If you accidentally step on it, you will fall to the intersection below, which is a dead end." And other traps.
When she turned around and reminded her, Agnes finally found that everyone looked at her as if she was looking at the expression of a dwarf god. She tilted her head slightly in confusion, and then asked Bru desperately, "Are you the reincarnation and reborn and transformed silver dragon in the Dwarf King of Wildhammer?" Only then did she realize that her performance had aroused everyone's suspicion.
The novel of choking Qiqi is choking |
In amazement, Agnes emphasized to Bru fiercely that the dwarf king is a man, Lanlong, what do you mean by this? Do you want to start a dragon war here?
After Bru impatiently surrendered, she pointed to the earrings on her right ear and explained.
It turns out that this earring is a legendary piece of equipment that can break all mazes and hallucinations and greatly suppress the effect of mental attacks.
"If I hadn't had this, I wouldn't dare to enter the mine built by the dwarfs. If I got lost, I wouldn't be able to walk out for decades without destroying the aisle!"
After hearing Agnes' unhappy explanation, Bru finally woke up.
Although the nobleness and mystery of this Silver Dragon Princess has been completely shattered during this day of escape, she is still His Highness, one of the most powerful forces in the world, and is also the second generation of Dragons in Quanxiulesi Continent.
It is different from those of them who have never had any father or mother since childhood (Margaret "???").
Of course, a dragon of the age of Agnes cannot obtain legendary props by himself, so it must be given to him by his family.
This is the gap...
The little episode of the maze passed quickly. As the tunnel became deeper and deeper, the walkway began to become wider, and some rails running by ore trucks began to appear on the ground.
Maybe it was because I was too hasty when I left, so I could see ore trucks loaded with ore from time to time on the railway tracks. I often saw discarded shovels, hoes, pickaxes and other tools on the roadside of the tunnel.
The temperature is getting lower and lower, indicating that Bru and others are getting closer to the residential area.
Slowly, they discovered many large dwarf rooms. These rooms were different from those of humans or elves. They all had no signs of decoration. They were all square rooms, and there were no signs of people living there.
Agnes looked at the curious Bru and others and explained, "These are the guard room of the Wild Hammer Dwarf and the reception room to the outside."
"The reception room? Is this their residential area? Why is it different from what I imagined?" Bru asked a little strangely.
In fact, the dwarf residential area that Bru imagined was the dwarf's main city in a game where he played in a tribe and alliance that he played in his previous life.
Of course, Agnes didn't know the legendary Iron Fortress. She thought Bru had really seen the dwarf kingdom, so she explained that "the architectural style of each dwarf is similar, but the interior has its own characteristics... These reception rooms are actually aimed at those who buy ore and equipment from outside, as well as those who bring supplies, especially fine wine to sell."
"So that's it." After hearing Agnes' explanation, Bru nodded in understanding, and then continued to say in admiration, "Your earrings, do you even tell you this?"
Agnes nodded very naturally.
Damn your earrings are much more advanced than what is the navigation system for jumping to the sea!
In fact, the few people used chats to relieve the boredom of traveling. Although they would not feel fear and pressure because of the silence here, they were still a little irritable after walking for so long.
Macaria smiled and looked at the Q&A between the Blue Dragon and the Silver Dragon. For her, in this completely closed environment and tens of thousands of tons of stone and soil above her head, there was always a hint of fear, and therefore she felt very uncomfortable.
Looking at Agnes, Macaria also envied her very much. If she was the pioneer of reconnaissance, she would definitely walk carefully in this cave built by the dwarf. Not to mention that she should carefully observe the concave and bumps on the wall, even pay attention to whether there are any traps every step.
If that is the case, the energy required will be very high, and maybe it will take less than a few miles in a day.
In fact, this is the norm in this world. Sometimes, in order to explore a ruin or such a dwarf mine, it takes several months to get stuck in the map.
If you could understand the authenticity and architecture that others had dug out for decades so easily, then adventurers would have long become the richest group in the world, and adventurers would not be forced to change jobs or lose their jobs every year.
Only novices will hold the romantic idea of "I can pass the level perfectly for the first time", and then they will gradually mature after experiencing several adventures.
Suddenly, in another fork in the aisle, Bru suddenly found a slight warm breath appearing on the soles of his feet.
This is different from the rooms they discovered before. The air exposed in those rooms is all the stuffy heat accumulated due to non-ventilation, and it is obviously different from the breath emitted by this heat source.
Not only Bru, but the others also discovered this. Macaria lowered her body, looked it up with her hands and pointed to the direction on the left and said, "There is the hot air coming from there."
Bru looked at Agnes and asked, "What's going on? Why is there a hot wind coming? Are there other people here?"
Agnes spread his hands and replied, "I don't know this anymore. Although the White Dragon comes from time to time, you and I know that for us, the adjective of time 'from time to time' is different from the judgment criteria of humans, elves, and dwarves."
Blu was immediately embarrassed. As Agnes said, for a real dragon that can live for at least 23,000 years, even the weakest white dragon will be alive for a thousand or hundreds of years. In their opinion, it is already considered "frequent" to come and see it after two or three decades.
But for humans or other humanoid races, it can be transformed from a young man into a grandfather in two or three decades.
Agnes's answer did not give Bru any substantial gains. Although several of them were real dragons or terrifying devils, it could not be ruled out that there was a danger that threatened them.
They lowered their voices of walking and walked more carefully.
Under deliberate control, their footsteps could no longer be heard even in this deadly place.
The team continued to move forward slowly. Although it was just a temporary intention, the dragon clan's pursuit of treasure was endless. Blu didn't understand why he naturally wanted to come in and take a look. He could not control his temptation to "Misins, Sir Silver, and Gems".
Of course, he can also control his desires like he castrated himself, but it seems unnecessary in his opinion.
It is not a good thing to completely distort his dragon clan personality. After all, he is still so young now. If he acts completely according to his human thinking in his previous life, he will easily fall into a state of having nothing to do.
Agnes' beautiful and noble face was serious. She attached great importance to whether there was danger ahead. This was also because it was her suggestion that the team temporarily entered this wild hammer tunnel.
Following the flowing warm air, they gradually approach the heat source.
After a while, the warm air became more and more, no longer limited to just feeling it on the feet, but the whole body seemed to have entered the tropics.
At this time, the sound of conversation and excavation came faintly, but the sound was too small, and even the dragon clan's excellent discernment ability could not tell what language and meaning it was.
Bru was the first to hear these voices, which was also because his physical fitness had now crushed Agnes and Crisanna. He grabbed Agnes and Crisanna's shoulders, and then made a gesture of not speaking in the other party's shameful and angry eyes, pointed to the front, and signaled the team to stop first.
Suddenly everyone was ready for the battle.
Chapter completed!
