Section 372, metal space

On the edge of the cave-in where Anubarak escaped, there are many caves, large and small. Truth be told, Dante hates this seemingly endless network of authentic tunnels. I don't know what's going on inside, even if there are murderous monsters, it's good to just come out and have a good time, and he always has to drill around in such an inexplicable place, which makes him very unhappy.

A day and a half has passed since Dante's departure. Those of them who went on the expedition were very good and could withstand it, but Ash ......

How is Ash doing now? Alas......

Dante followed Joseph forward, involuntarily remembering Ash. I wonder if the blizzard outside continues to weaken now, or if it has strengthened again?

Joseph opened the way at the front, looking for the signs left by the dwarves before him. The road signs used by the dwarves in the tunnels are more effective, using a medicine with radiation, which is applied to fixed locations along the way to indicate the correct direction for future generations.

Joseph put on a special pair of eyes that allowed him to see the light emitted by the emitting agent.

Under his leadership, the group seemed to be moving smoothly through the tunnel network.

"Dante ......" As he walked, Fordin suddenly said to Dante, "If we go through this underground path to the core area beneath the Frozen Mountains, we may need your help. ”

"What support?" Dante was stunned for a moment when he heard Fordin's words, but quickly reacted. He knew that when Fording said "support", he must be referring to his own powerful Shadow Resistance. With the Demon King's aura enveloping effect, Dante's Shadow Resistance can be shared with others who fight side by side.

"Don't pretend to be confused." Fording looked at Dante. Squeezing his eyes, he said, "That's the only purpose for which I invited you here." ”

"That's what I asked. Are we going to have a big battle in the minute? Dante asked bluntly, "Only when you know what's going on can you do things well." ”

"I'm guessing too." Rather than fall for Dante's clichΓ©, Ferding shifted the subject in a vague direction and said, "This is the territory of the undead. We can encounter an enemy that uses Shadow Damage at any time. It's always good to be vigilant at all times, right? ”

Ferdin's words were impeccable. Dante didn't bother to follow his words and continue to talk about them, but waved his hand disapprerovingly and said, "If there is an enemy, just blow it up." The best defense is to take the initiative to attack. ”

"Dante......" Fortin asked again. Can I ask you a question? ”

"Huh?" Dante saw that Ferdin's question was so careful and mysterious, and felt that there seemed to be something in the words, so he said, "Say." ”

"You ......," Fording seemed to stop talking. But Dante found his expression ugly. His face was pale, and he seemed to have something very unpleasant to ask.

"My son disappeared in the battle last time, and some witnesses said that you killed him!" Fording thought for a moment and finally spoke.

Finally asked this question!

Dante remembered about little Ferdin, rolled his eyes, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Ferdin." Don't listen to crooked words. Your son had already mutated into an undead monster before I killed him. ”

"Oh......" Furding heard Dante's words. Nodding his head, he said, "But, I went later." Didn't find the soul of my son......"

"Hah, I don't know." Dante knew that Ferdin's would definitely ask this question, so he smiled directly, spread his hands and said, "I am not a demon who eats souls for a living, and I am not interested in your son's soul. ”

"......" After listening to Dante's categorical answer, Ferding seemed very unwilling, but there was no evidence, and he had no choice but to give up and not continue to ask.

……

After walking for a while, about an hour, everyone's patience seemed to have been exhausted in the tunnel network.

Before Dante and the others set off, Fording did his best to be a landlord. In addition to a full meal of barbecue, Fording also gave each of them a large package of military dry rations. The dry rations are made to the highest standards for front-line troops, consisting of dough stuffed with meat and vegetable chowder mixed with sauce.

After walking into the tunnel, the group had eaten dry food once and regained some strength, but many soldiers still began to complain.

Joseph wore radiation glasses and walked unhurriedly at the front. Dante called out to him several times, but he waved his hand and said, "The road is absolutely right, trust me." It's just that we're very deep underground, and the distance is a bit long, but it's definitely much more comfortable than on the ground above. ”

After eating the dry food, Muradin's mood also recovered well, and he was still in the mood to say to Dante: "Joseph is right. The level at which our dwarves dig tunnels may be hard for you to imagine. ”

"I want it." Dante replied unceremoniously to the dwarven warrior's words, saying, "I have seen Joseph's mining prowess, and I am really impressed. ”

"Well, I say, Dante ......" At this point, Joseph seemed to hear what Dante had said to Muradin, and hurriedly turned his face to the two of them, "Don't mention the previous thing, right?" ”

"Okay." Dante guessed that Joseph might not be willing to be exposed to the previous things, perhaps because he ran out to do personal work, or even for money to do things for enemies such as the tribe.

Although Muradin saw Joseph like this, he did not continue to ask, but remained silent.

……

After another half hour, after Fordin, Lexa, and Muradin had each reprimanded their men three times, the situation in the tunnels finally changed.

Joseph, who led the way, was not the first to speak, but Dante was the first to perceive. Dante walked closer to Joseph, not far behind him.

As Dante walked, he suddenly noticed some noticeable changes in the rock walls of the tunnel! Something that looked like "metal" began to appear in the middle of the rock, and not just a little, but one after another.

"Huh? What are these things? "Look, there's a piece of metal on the wall around the tunnel!" "It's really metal!" "Hey, you idiot, don't mess around!"

Soon, more and more people who followed began to notice this new situation. Many soldiers curiously reached out to touch the pieces of metal, but were immediately stopped by Ferdin's yelling: "Don't touch anything, everyone!" There's a good chance you'll find a trap here! Stay vigilant and watch out for suspicious targets! ”

In this way, the team did not slack off, but followed closely with the dwarves at the front.

More and more metal walls are replacing rock walls, and on these metal walls, some traces of "welding" can also be seen. It must have been inside a "man-made" building, at least, the tunnel and the underground cavern to which it leads, were reinforced with these seemingly high-end metal plates.

What the hell is this place? Could it be the "Northrend Defense System" that Ferdin's calls it?

Then, the blizzard outside was also created by the "defense system" here?

"It should be just ahead!" While Dante was guessing, Joseph, who was walking in front, suddenly spoke, pointed to the front and said, "Look, there is the entrance to the cave ahead!" ”

When Dante heard this, he hurriedly stretched his neck, looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw the exit, but this place could no longer be called a "hole". All the walls here have been turned into full metal panels, and while Dante isn't quite sure they're made of shaki, but they're definitely metal, and that's not wrong.

Could it be...... Magic Iron Ore?

Dante looked at the metal walls around him suspiciously, and the words "magic iron ore" suddenly popped into his head. It's quite possible!

So, who is the one who makes these metal walls? Could it be the undead? Unlikely, right? Dante thinks that even if Arthas has a certain amount of scientific knowledge and thinking, it is unlikely that the undead will have such a strong level of technology, which is not very scientific.

He remembered what Captain Jack had said, "The Coalition has unearthed some mysterious mechanical body from beneath the Frozen Mountains. ”

Looks like this is where the kind of "mysterious machine" Jack calls unearthed, right?

Soon, Joseph and the group walked out of the metal wall tunnel and into a huge hall.

It's amazing! Dante looked at the scene before him and opened his mouth wide in surprise, not knowing what to say.

The underground space outside this tunnel is a fitting "hall". It's not one of those rock caves, it's a huge rectangular space with metal walls!

This rectangular space is a bit similar to the shaft cave where the tentacle monsters fought before, but now Dante and his party are just standing at the bottom of the space.

The four metal walls of this hall have many eye-catching "lines". These lines are actually small grooves that are sunken down, and there is a flash of red light in them from time to time, and the overall look gives people a very strong visual impact!

The whole hall went up all the way, and when I looked up to the top of the kang, it was pitch black, and only the red lines on the walls roughly outlined the height of the entire space.

It's just too high! Can't estimate the situation above! Dante has the help of the power of the Demon King, and there is no way to see the outline of the top!

At the same time, in the middle of the air where the hall was some distance from the ground, there were many large and small metal six-sided blocks floating. The blocks look erratic, not completely suspended in the air, giving a very strange feeling.

The cubes filled the air of the entire hall space, extending upwards until they seemed to reach the top of the space!

"Well, here, it doesn't look the same as before!" Joseph looked at this unbelievable underground space and said. (To be continued.) )
