Anduin came to the end of the underground passage, and in the dreamy colors of fluorescent fungi, he saw the bones of the Titans that seemed to have stood here since eternity, and couldn't help but think of the mission of protecting this collection stone on his shoulders when he left, and he made entering the Elven Imperial Capital an important goal on his agenda.

The flame of holy light lit the transparent candle again, this time the scavenger appeared faster than the last time, and he was overjoyed when he saw Anduin: "Thank God, you are finally here, Master Geodivinator is waiting for you, respected human, let's hurry up!" ”

Anduin felt the slightest urgency from the kobold's body, and he guessed that the kobold kingdom was probably in trouble, and the result was just as he expected, but everywhere he looked, it was a hurrying kobold, and the entire underground space was filled with an oppressive atmosphere.

Goodbye kobold diviner, the other party is using a crystal ball to divinate good fortune, although Anduin does not understand the mystery, but just looking at the diviner is not worried, he knows that the result is not satisfactory, he quietly sent the badge full of goods, the old kobold came back to his senses, nodded and said: "Count Anduin, you must also see that we are facing a predicament." ”

Then, he handed another earl's badge to Anduin, and the system immediately reminded him that this time the reward was not a hundred crystals, but a full five!

The kobold earth diviner said in a deep voice: "Not long ago, the road builder Hamm discovered the traces of the Doom Mole, which means that the unknown danger has quietly approached, so, I hope you can send five times the resources within five days, our kobold warriors need sufficient weapons, if you plan to explore today, please pay attention to your own safety, do not enter the undiscovered dark area without permission." ”

Anduin was stunned: "Adventure? ”

The diviner noticed that his expression was a little strange, and his heart immediately understood: "It should be that Ferdin's hurry to do that and didn't have time to introduce it to you, but since he handed over the candle to you, it should have explained that you should inherit the responsibility of Bovar to protect the collection stone, and wait for the arrival of someone destined." ”

Anduin nodded, a little curious about what "that incident" represented, and there must have been an important reason for Fordin's eagerness to send Bowval's coffin to the Northern Isles.

"In the same way, I have this responsibility on my shoulders! Using Stormwind as a cover, Bolvar hides from the visitors on the ground, I want to lead the kobolds in this area and defend against the enemies of the underworld, many times, Bolval will help us explore the dark area, but alas...... His last expedition was met with an unknown accident, and not only did he lose his sword, but he was even seriously wounded. ”

The kobold earth diviner sighed lightly: "Ferding didn't tell you these things, maybe there is also a psychology to protect you, but I don't want to deliberately hide it, because you deserve the right to know!" ”

Anduin fell silent, his eyes contemplative, and after he heard the cause of Boval's death, he immediately decided to check out, and what he cared about at this time was how credible the little turtle's prophecy was, but with the assistance of the system and the concealment cloak on his body, he felt that even if he couldn't get the unknown treasure, he could still guarantee his life.

After saying goodbye to the kobold geodiviner, he did not choose to leave immediately, but instead went to the kobold library to find the current map of the underground world.

The map shows that the area under the command of the kobold geodivinator is located on the dark border of the entire kobold kingdom, surrounded by many powerful and terrifying underground creatures, as well as undiscovered lost ruins.

"Knowledgeable anthropologist, what kind of historical archives are you going to look at today? I'll have the librarian find it all for you! ”

"I'm sorry, I can't stay here for long, because there's something important waiting for me, and if I can, I'd like to borrow some exploration logs from the surrounding area, and be sure to return them when I return."

Normally, important archives can't leave the library door, but the purple-robed kobold quietly opened the back door for him because of the inspiration of the dragon language, and let Anduin take the relevant materials with him.

Later, under the guidance of the scavengers, Anduin found the minecart manager, and the underground railroad that stretched to the boundless darkness began there. Compared to the ground, the underground world is also vast, and riding a crystal-powered energy minecart can save a lot of time and energy.

The minecart manager was a stout middle-aged kobold, and upon seeing Anduin, he asked directly in a skilled human language, "Are you going to follow in the footsteps of Boval?" ”

"Both the Light and my heart require that I do so."

"Even though you may be scolded by Master Geodiviner, I have decided to make an exception for you!" The minecart manager patted the iron car beside him, "Boval once saved my life, but I don't have the guts to avenge him, the only thing I can do as a coward is to provide you with the fastest energy minecart, I hope you can tell me what the hell he encountered." ”

Anduin nodded solemnly, and immediately listened to the operation method of the energy minecart, I have to say that the kobolds' thirst for treasure has greatly promoted the rapid progress of this kind of technology, of course, so many underground rails that use crystals to power the energy, only the rich kobolds can afford it.

"Dear Human, I hope you return safely!"

The kobold scavenger who was the first to see Anduin sent his heartfelt wishes, and the minecart manager reminded Anduin: "There are unpredictable and deadly dangers lurking in the underworld, and this candle will be your last companion for survival. ”

Anduin, who was sitting in the minecart, once again heard the advice related to the candle, he looked at the underground track leading to the unknown darkness, nodded heavily, and immediately activated the energy crystal, and the two disappeared in front of the eyes.

The kobold scavenger looked at Anduin's figure, and suddenly heard the sharp order of the minecart manager: "It's time to prepare for battle, return to your post, boy, if you don't want Count Anduin to have an accident, by the way, inform the geodiviston of this news!" ”

The dog-headed scavenger hurriedly ran away, but the minecart manager imitated his previous movements, looked at the darkness from afar and muttered, "The crystal light can no longer illuminate this deep darkness, so the candle flame ...... How far is it going? ”

……

The cheerful wind blew the ends of his golden hair, and then whistled away in Anduin's ears, and with the help of the faint light, he could barely see the stone walls around him, and quietly asked in his heart, "I need detailed location data, it shouldn't be difficult, right?" ”

[No problem, the host has just swept past the corresponding position of the Stormwind Church, and is now heading towards the orc tribe.] 】

"Wait!"

Anduin suddenly remembered something, and steered the minecart back under the church, he couldn't understand how the Twilight dragon could enter an underground space with obvious fresh notches without knowing it, and Van Cleave, as an expert, concluded that the construction time of the dragon's lair would definitely not exceed three months, and this coincided with the time when Benedictas took office, after which Bowval was seriously injured for exploring the area!

This series of clues made Anduin think that perhaps Bolvar had discovered some kind of clue, and he now had to follow Bolval's footsteps and start from the source.

"Scan this area as carefully as you can, even if it's crystals."

【Roger!】 】

As the system began to work hard, Anduin began to check the relevant logs of the tunnel, which showed that since the kobold road builders bombed the stone body and the railroad tracks were completed, there was no obvious abnormality, but the energy crystals buried in the tunnel walls were gradually hidden by the darkness, and there were no traces of fluorescent fungi, which showed that there were potential problems in the underground environment of this area that no one knew about.

At the end of the track, there is a newly discovered underground ruins, which have not yet ushered in large-scale exploration by the kobolds, but no one expected that Boval would encounter an accident here, and the kobold geodiviner has taken this place as a key defense target, and if the problem is serious, a strong man will be sent to explore deeply.

It didn't take long for the system to find the problem and direct Anduin to a section of the road not far away.

[Scans show that there is a slight dislocation in this section of the space, and the walls are inconspicuous, so the host can observe the rails!] 】

Anduin frowned, his fingertips suddenly paused on the cold track, and here he could clearly feel that there was a slight fault on the surface of the railroad track, which should have been smooth, and this was not caused by natural changes, because the dislocation of the entire fault was the same, and the cross-section was extremely smooth, even exceeding the original level of the rails!

"Why is this happening?"

[I think there are two possibilities, someone used space magic or space props to modify this area, which may be the reason for the appearance of the dragon's lair.] 】

"The space magic of this world can only be mastered at least at the Pope level, and if Bowal faces this kind of enemy, there should be no possibility of saving his life!" Anduin made a serious judgment, "Then it can be speculated that the other party may have powerful props to interfere with the space, and he should be an old acquaintance with Benedictas, and combined with the archbishop, this person's identity is probably related to the Twilight Holy See, maybe it is he who sent the Twilight Dragon to monitor Benedictas's every move." ”

[Is the host ready to continue the expedition?] 】

"Of course!"

Anduin put the diamond necklace around his neck into the badge space, and put the concealment cloak on his body: "There is a great reward for the risk, since I inherited the title of Boval, then I should inherit his responsibilities as well, not to mention, the Twilight cultists have long been eyeing my territory, so the sooner you get in touch, the better you should prepare." ”

[I will start data collection and notify you as soon as I find an abnormality.] 】

"I hope the little turtle's first prediction is not too wrong."

[The host is going to call it a little turtle all the time?] 】

"Tsk, I have trouble naming it, so I just ...... Let's call Jenny the Turtle! ”
