Chapter Seventy-Six: The Underworld
The Underworld, as the name suggests, is a world built beneath the surface of the earth, full of sin, decay, and darkness......
Many wanted criminals who have committed crimes on the surface of the earth will do everything possible to hide here to escape the pursuit of the camp, which also makes the underground world have the "reputation" of the guilty place
Of course, with a large number of heinous wanted criminals taking refuge here, the commerce of the underworld has also developed deformously, and the black market has developed greatly here.
Perhaps to take care of the player's feelings, the underground world is not as dark as it seems, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as brightly lit, as there are illuminated torches stuck in the rock walls almost every distance on both sides of the road.
If Death Valley is a small surface labyrinth, then the entire underground world is a huge underground labyrinth.
Although the places that the player has explored are shown on the map, the underground world is so large that many roads end in dead ends, so even if the map exists, the player will have to walk back and forth on a certain road many times.
Just like the current Thunder Tiger, he has been leading his troops around the underground world for a full day, a full day of exploration, although most of the underground world in this copy has been explored, but there has never been a trace of the so-called dungeon city.
For Thunder Tiger, the underground world is not terrible, even if he turns in the underground world for a month or more, he can bear it, but this underground world is different, because in addition to the same rock walls, torches, and scattered resources, not even a single wild creature has been touched.
When he first entered the underground world, Lei Lao Hu was still very excited, because there were too many scattered resources scattered around, almost every time he walked out of a distance, there would be a lot of gains, at the beginning, he would also order the troops to pick up these scattered resources scattered on the ground, and the place he passed was like a locust transiting, except for the torches that could not be taken away on the rock wall, nothing would be left.
But it didn't take long for Lei Laohu to become completely numb to these resources, and he no longer ordered the troops to collect them, and by now, he had lost even interest in looking at the resources on the ground.
Because of the resources scattered all over the place, the resource points all over the place, these things that make players crazy are just a "landscape" in the eyes of the current Lei Laohu, and they have no meaning.
After all, the resources he had picked up earlier were enough for him to use in this dungeon, and even if he collected more of them, he couldn't bring them out, so for him, there was no need to collect them.
This shows how abundant the resources of the underground world are.
It's no wonder that those guild forces in the previous life will do everything possible to hide the entrance to the underground world and prevent other players from passing, it turned out to be for this.
Lei Laohu stepped on the scattered resources scattered on the ground to explore the unknown area of this underground world, while his mind was constantly thinking about such and such problems, no way, it was too boring, he could only use this to solve the boredom in his heart.
After calculating the time, it took 1 day to reach the entrance of the Underworld, another 3 days to fight the skeletons at the entrance, and 1 day to leave the dungeon, with less than 2 days left before the deadline to leave the dungeon.
Considering that he had to leave the underworld for at least 1 day to rush to the Cave of the Damned to recruit mummies, he only had less than 1 day to explore the underworld.
In fact, the ruins of the dungeon city are just to verify a message, a message that he saw in the forum in his previous life, but he is not sure of the authenticity of this news, and he does not dare to guarantee that he will definitely get what he needs.
Therefore, in Thunder Tiger's opinion, instead of wasting this last day on verifying this illusory news, it is better to leave enough time to go to the cursed cave that has been discovered to recruit mummies.
So this 1 day's time, in Lei Laohu's heart, must be set aside, looking at the unchanged scenes around him, Lei Laohu sighed helplessly.
"One more last day, and if we can't find it, we'll leave here." Lei Laohu tilted his head and said to Ken Lohag, who was already a little impatient beside him.
Listening to Lei Laohu's words, Ken Lohag just nodded silently, without words, he didn't want to say anything anymore, because in the past 1 day or so, they don't know how many unnutritious conversations they have said, and now, both of them are a little short of words, but they don't know what to say.
Immediately, the two of them began to wander around the boring underground world again.
After almost half a day of exploration, there are still no clues to the trace of the dungeon city, but there is only one unknown area left on the map that has not been explored.
However, the junction leading to this unknown area has two roads in very different directions.
Standing in front of this fork in the road, Lei Laohu stopped, he now needs to make a choice, left and right two paths, if he is unlucky and chooses the wrong path, it is very likely that the remaining half a day will not be able to fully explore this unknown area, and it is very likely that he will not be able to find the location of the dungeon city.
It's not a way to find it like this, and there won't be any enemies here anyway, so it's better to act separately and be on the side of Kenlohag alone, so that the efficiency of exploring the underground world will be greatly increased.
Lei Laohu slapped his forehead violently, he was really stupid, he didn't expect such a simple method, if he had thought of this method earlier, maybe he would have returned to the big map at this time and successfully advanced, and he didn't need to wander around this boring underground world for so long.
Thinking of this, Lei Laohu told Ken Lohag his idea, and Ken Lohag did not refuse, and directly nodded and agreed to his suggestion.
Looking at the other party's somewhat complaining eyes, Lei Laohu guessed that the other party must be blaming himself for not thinking of this idea earlier.
In this regard, Lei Laohu could only smile bitterly, because even he didn't know such a simple way, why did he think of it at this time.
In order to ensure that both sides can advance at maximum speed, Ken Lohag, who does not have a speed bonus, leads 3 squads of royal griffons to explore from the fork in the road on the left.
Thunder Tiger led the remaining 6 royal griffons and 10 mummies to explore the fork in the road on the right.
Before leaving, Lei Laohu specially told Ken Lohag that if he found the ruins of the dungeon, send a message to himself as soon as possible, and don't approach at will.
After Kenlohag patted his chest and promised that he would not approach him casually, Lei Laohu let him go, and he also led his troops to the fork in the road on the right.
Lei Laohu's luck was very bad, and there were many forks in the road on the right, and the end of these forks was also a dead end, a broken road, so that he had to walk back and forth on the same section of the road frequently.
So it took a lot of time, but the area to explore was not very large, which made Lei Laohu depressed.
The only thing that made Thunder Tiger feel a little relieved was that Kenlohag's exploration was quite smooth, and the area explored was more than 3 times that of Thunder Tiger, at least one side was relatively smooth.
I hope he can find the ruins of the city, Lei Laohu thought to himself.
Shaking his head, Lei Lao Hu no longer paid attention to Ken Lohag's situation, but continued to explore.
In the following time, his good luck also seemed to come back, but the good news came one after another, because he actually found 3 treasure chests during this time, although the things opened in the treasure chests were also useless things such as gold coin resources to Thunder Tiger, but after all, Thunder Tiger saw different things in this underground world.
The discovery of the treasure chest made the thunder tiger very excited, the contents of the treasure chest are not important, the important thing is the appearance of the treasure chest, a new item, and the appearance of the treasure chest also makes the thunder tiger in the boring exploration, more new fun.
At least when opening the treasure chest, Lei Lao Tiger can still have a trace of anticipation, excitement, and heartbeat...... After all, it is possible to open good things in treasure chests, although the probability is very low, but there is always a chance to open it.
However, after discovering the 3 treasure chests, it was a long and dull period of exploration, and Kenlohag seemed to have encountered some difficulties, and the speed of exploration slowed down greatly.
There was not much time left before leaving, which made Lei Laohu, who had a glimmer of expectation, also become disappointed, because there was still a large area in the unknown area, and the time left for him was no longer enough for him to explore this area thoroughly.
Just then, another fork in the road appeared in front of him.
Left or right?
It was a multiple-choice question, and perhaps there was only enough time left for him to explore one of the paths of the fork, for he didn't know where the path would lead after the two forks.
Gritting his teeth fiercely, on the right, the last half hour must leave regardless of whether there is a gain or not, after all, the Cursed Cave is still a long way from the underground world, and the time of a day is just enough.
Perhaps Lady Luck was moved by Lei Laohu's perseverance.
Finally, just when Thunder Tiger wanted to give up, he saw the ruins of the dungeon city that had been completely destroyed by the raging sea of skulls from afar.
Looking at the large ruins in front of him, Lei Laohu's eyes were full of tears, it was not easy, it was really not easy.
He swore in his heart that he would never verify the uncertain ghost news in his previous life in the future, and he would never do such a thing again, this was completely self-inflicted, torture of his body, and destruction of his spirit......
It's just that Lei Lao Hu has never been a person who does what he says, even if it is a poisonous oath, it can be violated, and in Lei Laohu's heart, the oath is used to break.
Because soon, Lei Laohu will break this oath and swear again that if there is such an opportunity in the future, he must verify the unconfirmed or unconfirmed news he saw and heard in his previous life, even if it is hard and tiring and difficult, he will verify it......
