Chapter Seventy-Five: The Temperature and Sound of the Underground

And in the face of this situation, the city can only rely on Anastasia to appease.

Although she is only a little girl, she is also the confidant of the city's city lord Blue Dragon Blue, so whether it is the leader of the half-ogre, Copperbeard Hammerstone, or the leader of the lizardmen, or even the Blue Dragon who rushed to help, she is quite face-saving.

————————————————

"It seems that until we find out the situation, we should not go back to New Schars City first!"

Blue turned his head and looked at the crowd and said helplessly.

And after seeing the bronze dragon, Krisanna couldn't disagree with her brother's decision.

After looking around at everyone, Blue smiled and said, "In that case, let's see what is here, if everyone agrees." ”

Everyone else nodded, while Agnes chuckled, "Is this your choice?" I really don't think about throwing away the artifact, so I don't have to get into so much trouble? ”

Blue's eyes shimmered, and he could see that Silver Dragon was a kind reminder, but he didn't like people interfering with him like this.

This is also the pride of being a dragon now, whether it is wrong or wrong, he does not want to give up easily.

"Agnes, you only need to think about whether or not to go with me, and you don't need to think about directing me to go."

Agnes shrugged her shoulders, and her delicate face was filled with helplessness: "Well, I know, you are not the kind of person who has already walked such a long way, and then turned to the door and turned away!" ”

Krisanna didn't say anything, she had become accustomed to acting according to her brother's wishes, and even if she was caught up in this whirlpool, she didn't feel that the other party was dragging her down.

She patted the dimensional bag hanging from her belt, and then thought that if this Hammer Canyon was really like what Agnes said, her dream perfect nest could have hundreds of more gold bricks.

Thinking of this, she dared to go alone even if it was an ancient white dragon in front of her - this was of course a scene, if it was really a white dragon above the prime of life, they still had to wait obediently for Lux to go or wait for Oriana to wake up.

After the people had made some preparations, Agnes began to lead them on.

The silver dragon princess did not have the slightest delicacy of a human princess at the moment, and she strode towards the depths of the Hammer Canyon, and in order to take care of Macaria, she still held a burning torch in her hand to illuminate it.

Of course, the torch in the hand of the silver dragon princess is not ordinary, this torch has the attribute of eternal immortality, and it also has some exorcism effects, and it can also use the fireball technique twice a day, which is a very rare treasure.

She was followed by a cold-faced, but desperate for treasure.

Then there was the unhurried follower of Blue, who watched with interest as the road slowly became like a labyrinth as they went deeper, and now they had unconsciously walked into the ground.

And Blue, as the second best fighter in the current team after Lux, Macaria who followed him only felt an indescribable sense of security.

Because this place could cause the White Dragon to attack at any time, Blue did not let Macaria go to the front as a scout, but let her stay by his side.

After all, this is my own sister, and it is not like the more friendly place like the ruins of Bahamut before, and the necessary protection measures should be taken.

These walkways underground, like other dwarven buildings, are not flat and barrier-free.

Whenever Blue walked a few meters along the walkway, there was a wall recessed next to the walkway.

Some of the recesses in these walls are just traces of the normal excavation of the walkway, while others extend all the way out, and in the darkness that cannot be seen, these recesses are combined with other underground passages to form a complex network of passages.

Sometimes there are boards on the walls of the walkway, sometimes recessed, sometimes protruding, designed by the dwarves to add shadow under the torches, to create a sense of isolation and protection, as well as a gloomy atmosphere.

This style is actually the same as the underground lair style that the blue dragon prefers, and no outsider can always choose the right path among the countless forks and intersections and compound tunnels.

Even if they are also dwarves, it is equally impossible for them to find the right way in such underground passages with their knowledge of dwarven miners.

It's like a labyrinth of twists and turns, so that the unfamiliar outsider will never find the builder's residence and important places such as wealth and food.

After walking for a while, in the dreary and not very good air of the corridor, the crowd began to look at Agnes curiously.

This is also because when everyone completely forgot where they came from, where they were going, and what they were going to do after sparing more than 20 forks and intersections, only the silver dragon princess who led the way continued to walk at a very natural and exaggerated speed.

From the expression of her unhesitating choice of path, it was as familiar as returning to her own lair.

Agnes, in particular, turned back from time to time to warn them, "There is a rolling stone ahead, so be careful not to step on it." "There's a hole there, and if you step on it, you're going to fall to the intersection below, and that's a dead end." And so on and so on.

When she turned back to remind her, Agnes finally noticed that everyone looked at her as if they were looking at a dwarf fairy, she tilted her head slightly in confusion, and then asked in a dead way, "Are you the silver dragon who was reincarnated and transformed by the Hammer Dwarven King?" Later, she realized that her performance had aroused everyone's suspicion.

Choking and Strange Novels|w~w~w.

In annoyance, Agnes stressed to Blue that the dwarf king was a man, what do you mean by this, do you want to start a dragon war here!

After Blue relented impatiently, she pointed to the earring in her right ear and explained.

It turns out that these earrings are a legendary level of equipment, which can break all mazes and illusions, and greatly suppress the effect of mental attacks.

"If I didn't have this, how dare I enter the mine built by the dwarves, if I get lost, I may not be able to get out of it for decades without destroying the walkway!"

After listening to Agnes' angry explanation, Blue finally came to his senses.

Although the sense of nobility and mystery of this silver dragon princess has been completely shattered during this period of escape, she is still Her Royal Highness the princess, one of the most powerful forces in this world, and she is also the second generation of dragons in the entire Xiu Lace Continent.

With them, they didn't have a father or a mother when they were young (Margaret: "??? The blue dragon is different.

Of course, a dragon of Agnes' age can't get legendary-level items on his own, so it must be a gift from his family.

That's the gap......

The labyrinth's hiccups quickly passed, and as the tunnels got deeper, the walkways began to widen, and some ore cart tracks began to appear on the ground.

It may be that you left in a hurry, so you can still see ore carts full of ore on the railroad tracks from time to time, and you can often see discarded shovels, hoes, pickaxes and other tools on the roadside of the tunnels.

And the temperature is getting colder and colder, indicating that Blue and the others are getting closer and closer to the residential area.

Slowly, they discovered many large dwarven rooms, which were different from human or elven rooms, none of them showed any signs of decoration, and they were all square rooms, and there was no sign of anyone living in them.

Agnes looked at the curious Blue and the others, and explained, "These are the guardhouses of the Hammer Dwarves and the reception rooms to the outside world. ”

"Reception room? Is this their place to live? How is it different from what I imagined? Blue asked, a little strangely.

In fact, the dwarven settlements that Blue imagined were like the main dwarven cities in a game he had played in his previous life with a certain tribe and alliance.

Of course, Agnes didn't know about the legendary Ironforge, and she thought that Blue had really seen the dwarven kingdom, so she explained, "Although the architectural style of each dwarf is similar, the interior is still distinct...... These rooms are for people who come from outside to buy ore and equipment, as well as those who bring supplies, especially fine wine, to sell. ”

"I see." After hearing Agnes's explanation, Blue nodded understandingly, and then continued admiringly, "Your earrings, even told you this?" ”

Agnes nodded very naturally.

This Nima what kind of sea jumping map is compared to your ear, and the navigation system is much more advanced!

In fact, a few people also use chatting to relieve the boredom of hurrying, although they will not be afraid and stressed because of the silence here, but there is still a little irritability after walking for so long.

Macaria smiled as she watched the question and answer between the blue dragon and the silver dragon, for her, there was always a hint of fear and therefore a very uncomfortable feeling in this environment of complete closure and tens of thousands of tons of stone and dirt above her head.

Looking at Agnes, Macaria was also very envious of her, if she was the pioneer of scouting, she would definitely have to walk carefully in this cave built by the dwarves. Not to mention that you should carefully observe the unevenness on the wall, and even pay attention to whether there are any traps at every step.

If that's the case, it will take a lot of energy, and you may not be able to walk a few miles in a day.

In fact, this is the norm in this world, and sometimes it can take months just to get stuck in the map level in order to explore a ruin or a dwarven mine like this.

If it was so easy to figure out the tunnels and buildings that others have dug up for decades, then adventurers would have become the richest group of people in the world, and there would not be adventurers forced to change jobs and lose their jobs every year.

Only a newbie will have the romantic idea of "I can beat the level perfectly the first time", and then after a few adventures, it will gradually mature.

Suddenly, in another fork in the aisle, Blue suddenly noticed a slight hot breath appearing on the soles of his feet.

This was different from the rooms they had found before, where the air was all stuffy due to unventilated heat, and it was distinctly different from the smell coming from this heat source.

Not only Blue, but the rest of the people also noticed this, and Macaria lowered her body, probed her hand a little, and then pointed in the direction to the left and said, "That's where the hot air comes from." ”

Blue looked at Agnes and asked, "What's going on?" Why is there a hot wind, and is there anyone else here? ”

Agnes spread her hands and replied, "I don't know about this, although the white dragon comes here from time to time, but you and I both know that for us, the time adjective 'from time to time' is different from the standard of judgment of humans, elves, and dwarves. ”

Bruma was embarrassed, indeed, as Agnes said, for a true dragon that could live for at least 2,3000 years, even the weakest white dragon had no problem jumping around for a thousand or hundreds of years, and in their opinion, it was already "frequent" to come over every twenty or thirty years.

But for humans or the rest of the humanoid race, twenty or thirty years is already the time to turn a young man into a grandfather.

Agnes' answer didn't make Blue anything substantial, and although several of them were real dragons or terrifying devils, it could not be ruled out that there was enough danger to threaten them.

They lowered the sound of their own movements, and moved more carefully.

Under deliberate control, their footsteps could no longer be heard even in this dead silence.

The team continued to move slowly, although it was only temporary, but the dragons' pursuit of treasure was endless, and Blue didn't quite understand why he naturally wanted to come in and have a look, and he couldn't control the temptation of "Mithril, Thorium, and Gems".

Of course, he can control his desires like a self-palace, but in his opinion, it is not necessary.

It's not a good thing to completely distort his dragon personality, after all, he is still so young now, and if he acts completely according to the thinking of a human in his previous life, it is easy to fall into a state of having nothing to do.

There was a serious look on Agnes' beautiful and noble face, she was very concerned about whether there was danger ahead, and it was because of her suggestion that the team temporarily entered this Hammer tunnel.

Searching for the warm air that flowed, they gradually approached the source of heat.

After a while, the warm air became more and more abundant, and it was no longer confined to the feet, but the whole body felt as if it had entered the tropics.

At this time, there was also a faint sound of conversation and the sound of digging, but the sound was too small for even the dragon's excellent discernment ability to discern what the language and meaning were.

Blue was the first to hear these voices, also because his physical fitness had now crushed Agnes and Chrisanna, and he grabbed Agnes and Krisanna's shoulders, then made a gesture of silence under the other's embarrassed gaze, pointed ahead, and motioned for the team to stop first.

Immediately everyone was ready for battle.
