The emotion in Bellis Lis's heart was suddenly mixed with an inexplicable complaint**. The sound of the Drow knights harnessing the black lizards still echoed in her ears, and of course she understood how much risk His Royal Highness the Prince of the Hearthfire Clan had taken to save herself, snatching herself back from the hands of death when she had fallen at the critical moment.

He was so brave, so upright, so kind, and the identity of the prince seemed to really coincide with the image of the protagonist of the fairy tale in that moment in the eyes of the little girl - if it were not for the unexpected finishing operation of the dwarven warrior in the final link.

After all...... Whose prince would throw the princess up and throw it into a saucepan and carry it on her back?!

Although I don't have anything to do with the so-called princess at all, this plot is a bit too bad for a reason, right? If this one hadn't happened, would Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you know how handsome you were just now!

That's just ...... Handsome, okay?

So Grandpa Gaine is on top, and I can guarantee that if any bard on the surface dares to write like this, he will definitely be hit in the head by rotten eggs and rotten tomatoes from his audience!

But then again...... Hmm, wait, this large saucepan named Xiaomeng seems to be quite convenient?

The deep barrel-like structure of the saucepan resembled a sturdy iron-backed basket - the future Grand Magister was worthy of the genius of the Sage of the Grey Court, and she quickly realized this, so she simply squatted in it due to her small size.

Koto ran desperately with the "iron back basket" on her back, she put the magic guide gun in her arms on the mouth of the pot, and turned her back to the direction of everyone's field of vision, which happened to take the Drow pursuers behind everyone into her eyes, and then fired continuously!

As an illusion master who is the opposite of the Plastic Energy School, the little girl's spells lack the aggressiveness of Dorothy's, but fortunately, several of her best illusions have a certain degree of field control.

She shot out all kinds of illusions she mastered through the magic guide gun, and although the lizard cavalry chasing everyone was able to rely on the dark elves' naturally high immunity resistance to not be affected, but in the case of a large data sample, there were always a few unlucky ghosts who were unfortunately hit, and after being misled or confused by the little girl's low-level illusions, it affected the overall pursuit efficiency of the troops.

Stonefist and Raven can only do much in this hellish crisis, keeping an eye out for the geography around everyone and potential threats from the flanks of the team, respectively, and pointing out the alternative directions for everyone to go forward.

Urs gripped the sword in his right hand, and his left arm clamped Thea's waist to his left shoulder as he had when he first came into the world. The wolf-eared girl's weight was nothing to him, and Thea's upper body was lying on his shoulder, similar to Bellelis's situation, just in time to match the dwarf girl's illusion cannonball to distract the enemy.

Thanks to the angelic bloodline hidden in her body, her casting strength is not comparable to that of ordinary priests or druids, even an ordinary flash spell can force many drow knights who are targeted by her raised hand to quickly look sideways to avoid, but unfortunately it is only that Dorothy and Abel can't take this opportunity to cast a spell to counterattack for a while.

Dorothy's constitution is not very good, and her breathing is so disordered that she can't cast spells normally while running.

Able had trained in mobile spellcasting in the past as an apprentice with the Grey Court Sage Festina, but now he needed to allocate most of his energy to secondary spellcasting that would increase the team's speed to help the group get rid of the Drow Knights who were trailing behind the team as much as possible.

These underground cavalry riding lizards...... Their mobility is simply too high.

And not long ago, the orderly tactics of rushing forward proved that the opponent's troops were probably quite complete, professional archers with professional cavalry, the group's actions seemed to be carved out of the mold as if neat and fast, and the combat execution was very strong.

Were the drow archers hidden in the darkness thrown away by their fellow cavalry?

After a few minutes, the young man suddenly felt that his group had unconsciously been chased by these enemies who had been attacked secretly for a long distance, and then turned his head to look back in the direction behind him, and saw that the Drow knights, who were still being disturbed by Bellinglith, were still divided into two teams to pursue the group.

The two teams of cavalry on the other side were located in the left and right obliques behind everyone, and the speed of the pursuit was not easy to detect without paying attention to it, so that the young man suddenly kept his eyes on it for a few more seconds, and then found that these drow knights who were following behind everyone and chasing after his group did not seem to want to "catch up" with everyone.

They seem to be deliberately controlling the speed advantage, and the rhythm of the pursuit on the left and the right is coordinated with each other, as if the right and left hands of the thread master are controlling the puppets, forcing everyone to make passive choices on the escape route in such a very passive situation as they are now.

In other words - are these cunning dark elves "driving" their own group?

Urs tried to use his brain, and then suddenly realized, maybe the other party's purpose was to drive everyone to a place they wanted everyone to go?

If that's the case......

"There's no road ahead." At this moment, the voice of the stone fist suddenly came from one side of the team into the eardrums, "In front and here, there are rock walls. ”

The rough voice of the orc race smashed into the hearts of the people like a heavy stone, and then forced the underground adventure team to stop in the face of the desperate reality.

The road ahead, as he said, was indeed severely blocked by a merciless rock wall.

"In that case, let's just fight with those bastards who are chasing after our ass!" Carrying the tin saucepan containing Belin Lis, Koto soon realized that the orc monk's hint was not alarmist, and suddenly his eyes widened in shock, and two angry flames ignited in the depths of the pupil, "The fire is on the fire, great hearth mother...... The warriors of the clan are not afraid of death! ”

"Yet your hearth mother seems to be a kind, death-loving little man." The jay stopped on the flank on the other side of the group, its dark purple eyes keenly catching a black mass on the rock wall ahead, followed by its haughty hoarse voice, "Or Lady Luck...... Ms. Lachli is on our side, at least for now. ”

"What did you say?" The dwarf froze, and subconsciously looked in the direction she was pointing to.

"It's a tunnel!" The helmet cover of the machine man mage suddenly lifted upward, revealing Soros's front paws and his cat face with a surprised expression poking out at this moment, "Abel, there is still a road ahead!" ”

"Hmm." Able nodded calmly, also seeing the hope that the crow had discovered in time, and then looked sideways at Dorothy beside him.

Dorothy covered her abdomen with her hands, and bent over uncomfortably to gasp, her mouth and trachea out of control as if she were squeezing the little strength that Miss Warlock had left out of her lungs.

Blurry tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and her sea-blue eyes looked up tiredly to see Abel, and then she heard Urs's voice reach the ears of every member of the team, including herself: "Quick, go in!" ”

Although there was a vague suspicion in the depths of his heart, or rather a gut feeling that something was wrong for the young man since he noticed something strange about the way the enemy was pursuing, it was important to know that the dozens of Drow knights on the backs of the black lizards were different from the gray dwarf infantry in Palomitte, and these hordes of bastards would theoretically need one more effective charge to end the battle.

The current situation was not to be thought about, so he could only make a hasty decision, urging everyone to hurry up, and put Xia off his shoulders.

Everyone present understood that the hard-won glimmer of hope in front of them could not allow anyone to waste precious time on hesitation, and then rushed into a line into the tunnel, which was about the width of one person to pass through.

Urs waited patiently for all his companions to enter the cave first, and then looked back at the two drow lizard cavalry that were rapidly approaching behind him, then gritted his teeth and twisted his neck to follow his companion.

Black lizards are too tall to fit into tunnels with limited width and height, like horses on the surface.

In this way, the tunnel symbolizing hope spreads deep into the unknown like a thin line through the rock formation.

After entering the tunnel, the group in a formation did not dare to slack off and continued to walk in for a few minutes, and the narrow passage seemed to gradually prove that this pothole path that helped everyone get out of danger by accident was not a dead end, thus slowly dispelling the sudden worry of the young man soon after entering the tunnel-

Could this be the conspiracy of the Drow knights to pursue their group in order to drive everyone into a dead end where there is no way out, and then completely block everyone's retreat?

He suddenly realized this, but he took a deep breath of cool air that penetrated his heart and lungs, and a cold sweat almost soaked out of his back, and he cursed himself in his heart for not thinking how his not good thinking brain had not anticipated such a terrible assumption in advance.

However, with the sound of the pace of progress in the narrow tunnel, the sudden widening of the field of vision in front of him seemed to really dispel Urs's concerns, so that the team that escaped all the way to this place later found that the scene in front of them had become a spacious underground cavern, and several forks in the same tunnel form further appeared on the other rock walls around the cavity.

"We... Isn't it... Safe? Dorothy gasped hard, using the staff in her hand as a crutch to support her body, hunched over and whispered.

She lowered her head a little uncomfortably, her eyes looked at the ground at her feet, and she didn't know who she was asking, and the voice of the question may be a subconscious consolation, glad that she was still alive.

The breeze in the cave inadvertently swept the faces of the people, proving that there was a high probability that this place was also connected to the rest of the entire dark region.

Urs looked at everything in front of him and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then walked with everyone to the hollow in front of him, looked around, and was thinking about what to do next when he found that Xia's fingers tugged at the corners of his clothes.

"That...... Map, Urs. The silver-haired wolf-eared girl raised her face slightly, and whispered a reminder to the young man who was much taller than herself.

Urs looked sideways at her amber-like eyes, and immediately realized that the girl's reminder was correct, after all, after the passive pursuit and escape for a while ago, everyone had almost no sense of direction on the journey.

"Hmm... Thank you, Thea. Thinking of this, he turned his head, convinced that the drow elves outside the tunnel did not seem to be chasing after him, so he nodded to the girl with a gentle face, and then took out the map.

The underground map sponsored by Moretti marked many things related to the nearby area, and drew two routes from the cliff to the Nameless Hill and the Gate of the Forgotten - one far but safe, detouring through the shores of the Dark Sea, according to Moredi, as long as you don't get nervous to run to the deep sea to provoke the benthic devilfish.

The other is close but adventurous, requiring you to pass through a place called the Broken Mine, shortening the journey time and possibly confronting some dangerous variables with unknown information.

Urs took the map out of the spatial ring, held it in his hand, and slowly unfolded it, trying to find the location of his group at this time by combining the various notes on the map and some travel memories that he had accumulated in the underground world in his previous life.

His gaze fell on the surface of the drawing, looking at it with the dark vision provided by the Cloak of Shadowscales, thinking......

"What... I said, do you feel the ground shaking? Suddenly, after Colto also released Bellingis from the saucepan behind him, he sensed some movement, and suddenly looked left and right with a little confusion on his face, and asked this sentence from his mouth.

The young man frowned slightly, and his train of thought on the map was interrupted by the dwarf's words, and for a moment he wondered if His Royal Highness the Prince of the Furnace Fire Clan would also be a little tired.

Or have you not recovered from the tension and surprise of escaping death?

After all, isn't the ground beneath everyone's feet good at this time?

Over here...... Slow, what's the sound?

Urs froze for a moment, then sensed through his legs what Koto had said.

The ground is shaking......

Not good!

"Everyone—" The successive changes immediately made his nerves, which he could not quickly relax, tense up again.

The black-haired young man didn't have time to shout "Be careful", and one second later he found that his vision was uncontrollably skewed about thirty degrees, and the second second later he heard a deafening loud noise from the depths under his feet, and looked down to find that the hollow rocky ground in the underground had been divided into many broken stone slabs by several web-like cracks in just a few moments!

He was now stepping on one of the stone slabs that had been squeezed and crooked by the cracks.

The third second—the depths of the earth continue to rumble upwards.

The cracks deepened, the hollow ground of the rocky material began to collapse rapidly, and the picture in everyone's eyes shook up and down with the frequency of the earth trembling, and then they all felt the solidity of their soles being ruthlessly drained away by some irresistible force!

After that, the fall ......
