"What's going on?" Regner asked warily, but he wasn't worried about himself.

In such a dark environment, even if he was under siege, Regner was confident that he would escape unharmed. He had been on infiltration and assassination missions for several years, and the only time Regna had been captured in those years was during the assassination of the Red Flame Sorcerer Saron.

But that assassination was not that Regner was unable to escape, but that he did not want to escape. So Regner wasn't worried about his safety. But he couldn't rest assured that Erin, this girl had the strength of a quasi-high-ranking priest, but she didn't know how to fight at all. So not to mention these cunning dark elves, Regner reckons that even an unarmed farmer can gain the upper hand in a battle with Erin.

"That's right. Link gritted his teeth and explained in a low voice in lingua franca, "Our Elwyn family and the Andariel family have always had a bad relationship, and the two families have formed a blood feud in these years of fighting. Today, I don't know where the Andariel family heard the rumors, but they seem to have set up an ambush on the path we may pass through in the dark lands, waiting for us at any time. ”

"Wouldn't it be nice to have someone from your family pick us up?" said Regner, "Since Erin is your master's daughter, there should always be such a courtesy, right?"

"No!" Link shook his head, "A small portion of the family was sent to receive a group of kobold slaves, while a large number of others were involved in a battle for the Mithril veins. At the moment, the family simply does not have enough manpower to support us. ”

"How many days shall we wait here?" Regner asked, fearing for Erin's safety and not taking any chances.

"If you follow the human concept of time, it will take about a month. Link added, "That Mithril vein is very valuable, and many families have been involved in snatching it this time. So if you want to wait for the family to return, it will take about a month. ”

"......" Regner gave Link a deep look, then frowned. He and Erin might be able to stay here for a month, but Innellis might not be able to survive that long.

Before leaving Melindell, Regner had studied the dagger of the female Assassin who had stabbed Iniris. Based on his and Garona's knowledge of poison making, both of them thought that the poison on the dagger was very dangerous, and even if the poison was suppressed by Link's medicine now, Regner couldn't guarantee how long that bottle of potion would last. So Regner had to find an antidote for Iniris as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late by the time the poison broke out.

And more than a month, apparently too long!

Regner looked at Link and asked, "How many centaurs do they have?"

"I don't know. Link shook his head: "But they should think it's just me and Erin together, so even if they send people, they should only be one or two elites." Against elite individuals, the sheer number doesn't make any sense. ”

"That family ......," Regner said, staring at Link, "Did the assassin sent by that family poison Ini?"

"The woman was masked at the time, so I couldn't be sure which family she was an assassin from. But the suspicion of the Andaril family is great. Link replied.

Regner thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's good, let's go together!"

"Aren't you worried about Miss Irene?" Link was stunned.

"I'll take care of her, you don't have to worry about it. Regner said expressionlessly, and he winked at Erin, who nodded obediently.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you. Regner smiled at Erin.

"With you, I'm not afraid. Although Erin was a little nervous, there really wasn't any fear on her face.

Ragner said no more, and motioned for Link to lead the way. Then the three of them stepped into the vortex of the plane junction together.

"Because of the rules of the Origin Plane, the number of people that can be teleported by the node per day is limited. That's why we can't be present in large numbers on the Origin Plane. Link explained as he rubbed his temples.

Plane jumping causes creature vertigo, and this would have been the perfect time for the Andariel family to sneak up. However, this is a dimensional node built by the seven families of Darklight City together, if anyone dares to make trouble here, then it means that he has violated the common interests of the seven families of Darklight City at the same time, and has become the common enemy of the seven families.

On the way here, Regner had already heard Link introduce the destination of his trip, Darklight City. Darklight City is a fairly large city built by the Dark Elves in the Dark Regions, and many Dark Elf families of a certain size live here.

Darklight City does not have an official power to rule the city, and in the eyes of all the sensible Dark Elves, they know that the control of the city is basically divided into seven parts, and it is divided between the seven most powerful families in Darklight City. The remaining small families can only rely on the snort of the seven major families to share some leftovers, but even the same interests as leftovers are far better than the small family dominating in a remote city.

Therefore, many dark elves are eager for such a city. This also ensures that Darklight City will always have plenty of fresh blood to join here. The new Dark Elves always watched with a greedy gaze as the Seven Great Families built their own fortresses in the city, fantasizing that they would one day become the masters of one of these fortresses. Among them, the Elvin family and the Andariel family are both members of these seven families.

That's the basic situation in Darklight.

Regner looked at Link and Erin, who had been rubbing their heads, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Link had previously reminded himself that he would experience a few minutes of dizziness and discomfort after the plane jump, but Regner didn't feel the slightest bit about it.

"Could it be that the shadow shuttle has made me adapt to space jumping?" Regner could only explain to himself, he didn't know that there was no such thing as space jumping.

Regner first watched his surroundings vigilantly, and only after confirming that the surroundings were only dark elves stationed at the nodes of the plane, he relaxed his vigilance and carefully observed the dark area.

Overall, the Dark Realm looks like a huge cave with no end in the world. The world here has no sky, and the great geography is naturally made up of earth and stones, but the plants that are common in the origin plane are difficult to see here, and instead some mosses, lichens and other shade plants, as for some other strange things...... Regner couldn't even tell if it was a stone or a plant......

The Dark Regions are not as bleak as the previous caves, and the glow rocks and glow-in-the-dark crystals that are often used as works of art in the Origin Plane can be found almost everywhere in the Dark Regions, and even the mosses and lichens glow phosphorescent due to the composition of the soil.

However, this light is still not enough to completely illuminate such a dark and empty plane, strictly speaking, the intensity of light here can only be about the same as that of a cloudy night, and if a normal human walks here, he will definitely become blind.

"Drink this!" Regner pulled out a magic potion from his spatial pocket. Arriving here, Regner couldn't help but marvel at Annelot's attentiveness, even though she had never been to the Dark Regions. However, she used the knowledge in the books to prepare a lot of necessities for the two of Regner very specifically.

Regner's potion has the effect of greatly improving the night vision of the user, because Annelot enhances the effect of the drug, and this bottle of potion can last for about a week.

Erin gradually adapted to the dark environment after taking the potion, and the girl seemed very curious about the wonderful scenery here. It's also said that this should be her hometown anyway, and now that she is back here, the excitement is expected.

Both Regner and Link waited patiently for Erin to feast their eyes, and it took a few minutes for Erin to realize that she had delayed the entire group's trip. She smiled sheepishly, and then quickly ran to Regner's side.

"......" Link couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he looked at Erin's appearance, to be honest, as a dark elf, he had seen many beautiful women, and it was not for nothing that could compare with Erin.

But Link didn't know why, the half-elf named Erin gave him a completely different feeling. She doesn't have the gender arrogance of other female dark elves at all, because dark elves are a matriarchal clan society, so female dark elves will always have unconcealed arrogance in front of men.

But this half-elf is different, she has no such arrogance at all, and she does not carry any flattery or deliberate showmanship. She is simply doing her truest self, just like a child, writing all her feelings on her face. And Link was surprised to see friendliness in the way she looked at her. This puzzled the dark elves who had always put profit first - she didn't even know herself, could she have smiled at someone who didn't know her value?

Suddenly, Link felt as if his heart was moving, the beating was completely different from the original, the feeling was like the first time Link felt it beat.

Regner touched Erin's head dotingly, then turned to Link and said, "Let's keep going, maybe those crumbs can't wait." ”

"Uh, okay......" Link was stunned for a moment before replying.

......

"Dear Lady Angelista, are you sure we don't need to hide?" asked a dark elf man of no age, holding an enchanted sword in his hand and his light steel armor glowing slightly. From a human point of view, it is already quite luxurious for a high-level warrior to have such a piece of equipment. But as a dark elf, his equipment is really poor. No way, who let the master he is not a rich man?

"Stupid! Saidek, don't compare me to you lowly men!" Angelista, the owner of the Dark Elf warriors, is a very charming and seductive female dark elf, but everyone must admit that she has the capital to seduce.

Angelista tapped the ground with her staff, and then said proudly, "Don't forget who your master is! Maybe I'm not as favored by Lady Rose as those ** priests, but I want you to understand that the power of magic is irreplaceable!"

"I will take it to heart, Lady Angelista. The male dark elf nodded hurriedly.

"Good, Eddes. Angelista flew lightly into the air, and she raised her delicate little feet: "Since you are so obedient, then I might as well reward you for kissing my boots." ”
