Chapter Twenty-Four: The City of the Cave Mother of Darkness
The Konos Cave, where the capital of the dark elves is located, is huge, about the size of the **** capital. In addition to the capital city of Konos, there are also eight acropolises, which are occupied by the eight clans of the dark elves.
It can be said that more than sixty percent of the dark elves live here, and about three million dark elves are scattered throughout the entire space of the Konos Cave.
In the center, Konos is the capital of the Dark Elves and the place where the Dark Dragons are believed, with many priests of the Dark Dragons and dark dragons sleeping in the Dragon's Lair.
Facing the holy city of the Dark Elves, all those who see it for the first time will be amazed by its magnificence and magic.
Because the entire city of Konos was built on the top of the wall of the underground cavern, the stone pillars that hung down like mountain peaks were all hollowed out by the dark elves to build dark elf palaces.
And its main body is a huge stone pillar that supports the entire Konos Cave, a huge stone pillar that is nearly a thousand meters high like a Dinghai God Needle.
Now it has been carved by the dark elves into the form of a female elf with a mysterious smile and a pair of dragon-like wings on her back.
The female elf had her hands outstretched, and purple flames were burning in her hands, and she looked solemn and solemn, and she couldn't stop bowing down.
This is the Mother of Darkness, the embodiment of the Dark Dragon, and it is said that the appearance was based on the appearance of the first Queen of the Dark Elves, Queen Tudhana.
As a legendary figure, Queen Tudhana led the Dark Elves to defeat the encirclement of the Forest Elves, and led the Dark Elves to find the Crystal Land underground, allowing the Dark Elves to gain a foothold underground.
Therefore, the dark elves' fanatical worship of this queen combined the image of Tudhana with the dark dragon to give birth to the Mother of Darkness.
In addition to this huge sculpture, Knos City also has an elemental altar made of five huge crystals with a diameter of more than 100 meters.
These elemental crystals float in the sky, surrounded by a circle of magical sigils engraved with mysterious magic runes.
Colorful elemental energy floated around inside, emitting a magnificent brilliance that illuminated the entire Konos Cave.
In addition, Knoss City also has the Hall of Conspiracy, the Hall of Shadows, the Bloody Arena and other buildings unique to the dark elves, but now they are all under martial law and cannot enter at all.
Located at the top of the cave, the city of Konos is undoubtedly an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, and to go up it must be slowly ascended from the stone staircase behind the Mother of Darkness, or teleported up using the teleportation array on the elemental altar arranged below.
Of course, if you have a flying mount, you can go up there, but as a hostile force, I advise you not to do so. Because the city of Konos is the main place of worship for the dark dragon.
A large number of adult black dragons have been sleeping inside, although only a small part has awakened now.
But these high-tier legendary creatures will definitely give you an idea of what destructive power is.
In addition, even in normal times, there are a large number of Shadow Dragon Knights patrolling here.
The Shadow Dragon is a second-class dragon family, belonging to the lower dragon family of the Dark Dragon genus.
However, the Shadow Dragon itself also has the strength of level 6, so in the dungeon, except for the dragon, only the manticore lion dares to fight the Shadow Dragon.
The city of Konos is so difficult to attack, but if it can be captured, it will definitely allow the dark elf clan to surrender without a fight.
Originally, Konos City did not have many troops in normal times, only a large number of Dark Dragon Priests, Shadow Dragon Knights, and Blood Nuns troops were stationed here.
It was almost captured by the Dark Council before, but unfortunately, at that time, the Dark High Priest directly summoned the power of the Dark Mother, so that many high-level legendary powerhouses on the side of the Dark Council were injured.
Only then did he wait for the reinforcements of the Dark Elf Clan, which put the Dark Council's **** plan on hold, after all, the Dark Council, which integrated one-third of the underground world at that time, had a large number of legendary masters.
Now the Dark Council has gathered an army of 100,000 men, and together with the Spider Cult, half of Konos's territory has been occupied.
On the other side, the coalition of the Dark Elf clans and the undead army occupy the other half, fighting against the Dark Council.
With the addition of the Undead Legion, the Dark Council's attacks have come to a downturn.
The undead legion is fighting more and more, but the Spider Sect, an ally of the Dark Council, does not fight with the undead legion, but instead stares at the dark elf clan.
The undead of the two sides seem to have made an agreement, and they continue to grow their strength through a large number of corpses through war.
This made the Dark Council's side very anxious, because the Dark Council's original decision was to fight a quick decisive battle, and through superior forces, superior masters forced the Dark Elf clan to surrender.
However, the Dark Elves Clan unexpectedly persisted in resisting, and the allies they found were extremely strong, which frustrated the Dark Council's plans.
The plan failed, and with it more troubles.
Because of the large amount of territory occupied, the forces of the Dark Council had to be dispersed and stationed in various places, and also to prevent the forces in each place from secretly rebelling.
After all, although the people of the dungeon like to surrender, they also like to betray.
Therefore, it was originally decided to quickly resolve the battle, which was to consider the stability of the rear.
Now not only has the siege been frustrated, but most of the high-level legendary masters have been injured.
Sending troops to attack the undead legion suffered a great defeat, and it can be said that the Dark Council has broken its spirit.
What's even more terrifying is that the Dark Council is not logistically well prepared because it decided to rush off.
You must know that the terrain of the underground world is winding, many places are barren places with treacherous terrain, and the food is not produced much, and it has to be transported from afar, plus the wear and tear, this logistical pressure is too great.
At the same time, the defeat of the Dark Council and the fierce war made the Dark Elf Soul Clan, who had taken refuge in the Dark Council, very dissatisfied and regretful.
After all, as the head of the earth, the soul whisper has become the most important object of oppression of the Dark Council.
A large number of supplies and soldiers all need to be provided by the soul murmur, and it can be said that the soul murmur has a very miserable life.
The fluctuation of the morale of his subordinates and the war-weariness of the soul murmur made the Dark Council fully manifest.
This is why the Dark Council had to expose the demons behind them too soon.
In fact, most of the demons were killed or banished to hell in the early years of war.
But there are still some demons who have escaped in the underworld.
In the underworld, there are many places with volcanoes and lava, which are very suitable for the survival of demons.
Earlier, these demons were frightened, so they acted rashly.
But when they discover that the underworld is chaotic and has rules that favor evil, the demons are tempted.
The Dark Council is a pawn used by demons like this.
The followers of the demons, those who are called heretics by the Church of Light, were imparted a great deal of knowledge and power by the demons, and these heretics quickly took control of the Borderlands.
With the terrifying demons joining, Soul Murmur and other forces that have submitted to the Dark Council are finally honest, after all, the big fist is the real boss.
Although the addition of demons once caused heavy losses to the Dark Elf Clan, the number of demons in the underground world is not large, and the most important thing is that the Shadow Brand Tribe in the Dark Elf Clan, which was defeated early by the Dark Council, has appeared an elven prince named Rerag.
The dark elf prince who inherited the ancient bloodline of Tudhana was guided by the Mother of Darkness to find the Faceless Ones.
The Faceless are a race of emissaries of the Dark Dragon, and although they are not very strong in physical strength, they have an incomparably large spiritual power.
They know how to peer into the dark places of people's hearts, and they use this to manipulate the hearts and minds of others.
Most of these Faceless Ones had slept in the Hall of Conspiracy, but now they had been awakened by Rerag.
With the Faceless joining, the Dark Elf clan regrouped and defeated the fearsome demons.
As soon as the Faceless Ones appeared, the demons became their playthings, and all enemies began to kill each other.
This is the title of the Faceless Puppeteer, the Master of Mind Manipulators.
The Dark Council coalition and the Dark Elf coalition are still winning and losing.
In the rear of the Dark Council, Edward led his troops everywhere, making the Dark Council extremely annoyed.
