The speed of the slide became faster and faster, and the four of them swayed from side to side, unable to catch anything, and Ferry and Catherine screamed.

"There's a bright light ahead. Ace suddenly shouted, "Attention, it's coming." ”

The four men clung to each other and rushed out of the hole. "Bang-", this fall was not light, Catherine felt that her bones were about to fall apart, and her head was a little dizzy.

"Hurry up—" Ace shouted in a hoarse voice, and he was crushed to the bottom.

Catherine tried to move, but Ferry was still lying on all fours.

"You're like a scale. It was the sound of the green wind, and the elf jumped in the air as it rushed out, landing safely on the ground. He walked over, grabbed Ferry by the shoulders with both hands and flipped it out. The poor priest fell to the ground again and let out an exaggerated scream.

"Scales?" the priest sat up, rubbing his shoulders, "didn't you fall, and we would have slipped down?" ”

Catherine managed to get up and pulled up the cushion at the bottom. When the dear deputy head of the regiment stood up, he was already staggering, and it seemed that he had been pressed hard.

Catherine wiped the sweat from her head and found the four of them on a large platform that could accommodate hundreds of people. As the anvil says, there really is a lake in front of the platform, huge and peaceful, as far as the eye can see. Above the roof of the cave dozens of meters high, a large number of upside-down milky stones actually emitted a little bit of weak brilliance. The reflection of these opales is reflected on the surface of the lake, and a faint light illuminates the entire cave.

"My robes, oh my God, they're all frayed. Ferry looked left and right at his robes and shouted, "That damn dwarf." What about people?"

"Welcome to the dwarven underground kingdom. Catherine saw the anvil standing by the lake, and there was a rare excitement in his voice.

The dwarves' underground realms, which date back to the time of the ancient gods. Legend has it that in every corner of the continent, there are dwarf footprints underground. The Milky Stones are known to the dwarves as the Glowstone and are said to have been custom made by ancient gods for the dwarves.

"This is a man-made lake, and there is no doubt that it is a reservoir dug by my ancestors. "I didn't know if the legend was true, but I remembered when the elves said it was getting hot." The cave was originally equipped with a pulley, and I thought I would find the people, so I hurried down. ”

"Aren't your people here?" asked Catherine, stepping forward.

"No. Anvil shook his head, "If it were, the entrance wouldn't have been guarded by warriors, they must have all evacuated." ”

"And how do we get there?" said Ferry as he walked over to the lake and tested the water with his hands.

Catherine and the others looked around, trying to find the ship, but unfortunately there was nothing around the platform. Then the anvil fell to his knees and prayed solemnly in the language of the dwarves in front of the lake.

After a while the dwarves stood up and said, "The boats are probably on the other side, the dwarves don't swim, and this lake is only waist-deep to mine." I have just prayed to our ancestors and asked them to forgive us for our sins of wading through water. Water should not be polluted, this is the rule of the dwarves. Let's go!"

The anvil went down into the water, and this time he was at the forefront.

The five of them began to wade through the water, and there was a slight warmth in the lake. Catherine could sense that there was a huge heat source beneath the bottom of the lake, resonating with the fire elemental within her.

"We dwarves hate the cold and always build our kingdom above underground lava rivers. The roaring magma below is a natural heater. The anvil led the way and explained to everyone like a tour guide.

The lake was so wide that Catherine's legs and feet were so swollen that she couldn't see the other side. Suddenly, on the left and right sides of the front, a small round platform appeared. Those platforms were almost as high as the water, and if it weren't for the anvil screaming excitedly and climbing onto the platform, no one else would really notice.

"It's for defense. If someone attacked from the entrance, an iron cannon would be erected and stones the size of wheels would be thrown. Three iron chains that usually sink in the water were pulled up in the middle of the platform, poured black oil, and lit a fire, so that no one could think of passing through. On these platforms, the most powerful dwarven warriors gather at all times, ready to fight. It's unbreakable. Anvil shook his fist and grinned.

"But why did your people evacuate?" asked Ferry as he took off his shoes, wiped his wet soles, and rubbed his toes.

"I don't know. The clan hadn't found an underground kingdom in three hundred years, and I thought there were still people here. What happened in ancient times, I don't know. The dwarven kingdoms that have disappeared in large numbers have disappeared in large numbers, and only a few tribes still live underground, but nowhere near as deep as here. Anvil's words were a little sad, and as a brave warrior, Catherine had heard Anvil speak in such a tone for the first time.

Anvil stood up and stepped aside, looking in the direction of his great axe, not knowing if he was remembering the past glory of the dwarves.

Catherine sighed softly and leaned on As's shoulder. Her teacher, the wise Quisling, said that the kingdom of the dwarves was one of the first four civilizations to die in ancient times. Catherine never imagined that today she would have the opportunity to witness the existence of that ancient civilization.

"Maybe we'll find the answer on the other side. Catherine said comforting Anvil.

"Listen. Green Wind suddenly opened his eyes in alarm.

There was a loud rustle in the air, and the three warriors immediately surrounded Catherine and Ferry in the middle. Catherine silently recited the incantation, ready to release a shield at any moment, and Ferry began to meditate, his hands clasped to his chest glowing white.

"Whoosh" Green Wind was the first to shoot an arrow, and he saw something. Not far away, something fell into the water, and the sound of "rustling" disappeared all at once.

Quiet, unusually quiet. Everything was so peaceful, as if nothing had happened. Catherine didn't dare to let go, and Ferry didn't dare to disperse his spells, and the three warriors beside them watched warily. Time passed, and the silence overwhelmed Catherine.

Catherine struggled to take a deep breath and exhale softly. Ace, who was guarding in front of her, was slowly overflowing with sweat on his forehead. "Smack", a drop of sweat dripped onto the platform. This extremely subtle sound, infinitely amplified after a long silence, echoes like a loud bell on the surface of the lake.

A swift wind sounded above Catherine, and Ace swung his sword over. A stream of yellow liquid burst through the air and slimy drenched on the heads of the five people. The monster let out a shrill cry and fell in half.

The wind sounded everywhere overhead, and Catherine immediately released the shield. "Knock", "knock", "knock", several monsters hit the shield one after another, and then fell on the platform. These creatures have puppy-sized flat bodies and spider-like feet, and are pitch black, with three tentacles bulging in front. The tip of the antennae occasionally bursts with a little glitter. Whenever this happens, they become extremely fast, and they crash into the shield in a flash.

"Shadow Crab!"

Catherine's face changed, she removed her shield and shouted, "Quick, kill them, this is a monster from the Demon Realm." ”

The warriors rushed forward and slashed hard, and shadow crabs kept falling from the top of the cave. Catherine unleashed several frozen snowballs in the air, and Green Wind shot them up with an arrow. Several shadow crabs were frozen into ice cubes and smashed on the platform.

The Shadow Crabs didn't seem to be as vicious as they looked, and after several people worked together to eliminate a dozen of them, the rest fled into the water. The shadow crab on the roof of the cave no longer attacks the platform, and only hears the sound of falling water around it.

"It doesn't seem very powerful. Ferry breathed a sigh of relief and whispered.

"These demon crabs aren't powerful, they just change color. So they crawl on the roof of the cave and we can barely see it. Catherine shook her head and explained, "But the battle has just begun. They are one, you see. ”

Following Catherine's finger, a spot on the surface of the lake tumbled and bubbled. In a moment, a mountain of crabs rose from the water, and there were many more shadow crabs than expected, climbing up the mountain from all directions.

"Let's go now. Catherine told her friends to run forward, but she turned around and threw ice snowballs at Crab Hill one after another. The crab hill was frozen and no longer grew taller, and the shadow crabs that climbed up climbed up and fell down.

Catherine went crazy and unleashed her magic, not stingy with her magic at all. It wasn't until Ace realized that she hadn't kept up with the group that he ran back and dragged Catherine away. The group had not been running long before the lake began to churn violently, as if it had been boiled.

The five of them ran even more quickly at Catherine's urging. However, Catherine and Ferry soon ran out of their way, and Ace and Greenwind had to drag them forward.

"Shore!" shouted with an anvil waving his hand, and the shore of the lake was faintly visible in front of him. At the same time, an earth-shattering roar came from behind him. There was a huge creature dripping in the water, and waves rushed from behind, pushing several people almost to their feet.

The roar drove the waves, which grew louder and louder. As Catherine and her companions stood on the shore of the lake, a huge figure that had never been seen before appeared on the surface of the lake.
