Chapter 347: The Mission Arrives

In the underworld, in the underground lake southwest of the Deep Rift Cave, a huge ground water lizard is swimming into the water......

Behind it sat more than a dozen underground races of different costumes, mainly dark dwarves and underground gnomes.

If you look closely, you will see that although these underground races are dressed differently, they have the same sickle-shaped symbol on their chests.

It is a symbol of death and is often used in formal settings.

In the Underworld, the emblem has another meaning, that is, the wearer belongs to a large city-state organization in the western region of the Underworld, the Silent City-State Alliance, and is one of the many dungeon dwellers who believe in death.

The alliance of city-states is a common alliance in the underworld, although this alliance is loosely structured, and many internal city-states are at war with each other, and some are even mortal enemies of each other, but when faced with the invasion of powerful external forces, they will unite and unite with the outside world.

The Silent City-States Alliance is an alliance of small and medium-sized city-states that believe in death, who occupy some of the upper regions of the western part of the Dark Regions, and are permanently hostile to another city-state organization in the Western Region, the Dark City-States Alliance, which worships the gods of darkness and shadow.

Of course, unlike the Dark City-State Alliance, which has a long history and has nearly fifty dungeons, the Silent City-State Alliance is young and weak, and all the cities combined are only seventeen.

It is worth mentioning that while the Black Rock City of the Deep Rift also worships death, the dungeon is remote, small, and was originally founded by dark dwarven fugitives of different faiths, so it is not part of any city-state alliance......

Of course, with the passage of time, the Church of the Reaper has taken Black Rock City into its control, and Black Rock City is located close to the entrance to the surface world from the western border of the Underworld, so it is ...... It was only a matter of time before he joined the Alliance of the Silent City-States.

Obviously, the Lizard was riding a mission from the Silent City-State Alliance, and their destination was Black Rock City in the Deep Rift.

At the head of the earth lizard, a long, gray-red beard, a large bald old dark dwarf was standing there in silence with a magic staff, faintly like the leader of the people.

He was wearing a black mage robe, his expression was serious, and the deep wrinkles and vicissitudes of old age on his face made him look a little more melancholy, and he looked preoccupied.

The old dwarf's name is Firebeard, and he is 141 years old.

He took this name because dwarves are beautiful for growing beards, and when he was young, he had a long red beard like fire, which was extremely proud of dwarves, and was sought after by many female dark dwarves......

Of course, that was when I was younger.

Even if Firebeard is a low-ranking professional with a lifespan of almost twice as long as that of ordinary clansmen, among the dark dwarves with an average lifespan of 100 years, he is now considered an old man.

It stands to reason that no matter how strong a dark dwarf of this age is, he will often choose to retire, choose to retire in the dungeon, and at most participate in the decision-making of some major affairs as a member of the Presbyterian Church.

However...... But war came.

The war was started by the Dark City-States Alliance, which believed in the gods of darkness and shadows, with the simple goal of defeating and destroying the Silent City-States Alliance.

The Dark City-State Alliance has long been hostile and covetous to the Silent City-State Alliance, but due to its continuous internal city-state struggles and serious internal friction, although the overall strength of the Silent City-State Alliance is far stronger, it has maintained a delicate balance with the Silent City-State Alliance for thousands of years.

However, since last year, the magic power of the entire Seggs plane rebounded, and the city lord of the largest dungeon of the Dark City-State Alliance, the city lord of Moso City, "Pelone", took the opportunity to break through to the legend, and with the support of some hidden beings, integrated the power of the entire city-state alliance in a very short time, this balance has been broken.

When the equilibrium is broken, war comes.

As the previous chief of the largest dungeon of the Silent City-State Alliance, Blade City, and as one of the leaders of the Grim Reaper's gods in the underworld and one of the leaders of the Dark Dwarves, Firebeard must naturally shoulder his own responsibilities.

This time, he will lead the messengers of other dungeons to Black Rock City to ask for help.

As a Dark Dwarf, Firebeard had also traveled through the Underworld as a young man, and he had also traveled to Black Rock.

In Firebeard's memory, Black Rock City was just a small and remote city, with a population of only a few thousand.

Such a dungeon has low strength and weak foundation, and it can be said to be very weak except for the presence of another dark dwarf god.

It can even be said that if it weren't for the remote border of the underground world, such a city would have been swallowed up by other dungeons long ago!

However...... It was such a city, but it became a place of hope in the oracle of death, telling them that the victory in this war was here, and suggesting that they should go here for help.

Not only that, but the Grim Reaper's crown even issued an oracle to arrange ultra-long-distance teleportation circles in various dungeons!

And the other end of the ultra-long-distance teleportation circle is naturally Black Rock City.

In other words, the reinforcements they receive will be teleported directly from Black Rock City to the various dungeons to join their battlefields.

However, Firebeard couldn't figure out what reinforcements Black Rock would have......

He had been to Black Rock City, and knew that there were only thousands of dark dwarves in Black Rock City, and there were not many people who had reached the top of Black Iron.

This war is on a grand scale, what can be done by a few thousand dark dwarves who are not good at fighting?

Of course, as a devout follower of the Grim Reaper, Firebeard has long been accustomed to the habit of half-speaking his true god.

Moreover...... He did hear some rumors some time ago, although the content was ridiculous, but it was probably related to the oracle under the crown of the true god.

That was half a year ago, Black Rock City was besieged by the Shadow Army, and successfully defeated the other party, and also defeated a Shadow Dragon!

However, considering that in the past year, there have been visions all over the world, and all kinds of strange and ridiculous news have been coming out of the black market one after another, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, so ...... Firebeard doesn't know if it's true or not.

However, despite his doubts, Firebeard still carried out the commands of the true God.

But others are different.

Most of the members of the mission had heavy faces and worried brows.

This continued until they crossed the underground lake and came to Black Rock City.

"Is this Black Rock City? Where is there hope in the oracle under the crown of death? A city rumored to have defeated a shadow dragon? ”

Looking at the rocky city with low walls in front of him and a glimpse of the surrounding borders, one of the underground gnomes in the team frowned slightly.
