Chapter 519: The Dark Territory (V)

"Captain, did you think those dark elves would open the gates and let us in?"

As she walked forward, Anne curiously turned her head to look at Rhodes beside her, and asked. In the face of her inquiry, Rod shrugged his shoulders and did not speak. The Dark Elves aren't the kind of race that don't want to die, and now it's up to them to believe their words. If these dark elves believed that they were indeed the inheritors of the dragon soul, then there was no way they could refuse their request. But if the Dark Elves think they're just bluffing, then a vicious battle is inevitable. Of course, there is a third possibility, that is, the dark elves may let them into the city, but after that, they will find an opportunity to test Rhodes and the others, and once they detect that something is wrong, then they will immediately kill Rhodes and the others. With Rod's knowledge of the Dark Elves, it is quite likely that the Dark Elves will take the third action, after all, a head-on confrontation is the last thing the Dark Elves want to do. On the other hand, stabbing in the back is what they love the most and are good at.

Thinking of this, Rod reached out and patted Anne on the head.

"I think we should have no problem going into the city, but if we want to get out, I'm afraid it's a bit of a problem."

Hearing Rod's words, everyone didn't show much reaction, and it was obvious that many of them thought the same way. But Rhodes is not worried about this, this time the people he brought are each a hundred times stronger than the dark elves, and Leo needless to say, she was originally a dark elf and was most familiar with the practices of her kind. And Angelint is no problem, as a vampire, the little one's insidious cunning will only be above the dark elves, and definitely not below them. Not to mention the little bubblegum, if any dark elf family provokes her, she will wait to be uprooted. As for Kirudi——— if there is really any dark elf who can hurt the demon god, then Rhodes really wants to see it.

Even Bingxue'er, who looks the most well-behaved, is not something to mess with. If the Dark Elves only treated her like an archer who could use long-range archery, Rhodes wouldn't mind letting them learn a lesson they'd never forget. Not to mention that unlike other guys who like to run around, Bing Xue Er will always follow her very well-behaved, so naturally she doesn't need to care too much about the trouble outside.

There were four Dark Elves who had been "lucky" enough to escape from Rod's men, and Rhodes sent two Dark Elves to Calessodar to report the news, while the other two were responsible for showing them the way. For their origins. Rhodes had also made it clear that they were members of the Seventh Family of Callessodar City, and they were in charge of patrolling the outside area this time. As with the news from the gnomes, Calessodar is indeed locked down, but the dark elves don't know why. It's no wonder that they are all men, and in the dark elf society, the status of men has always been very low. Because only women are the only ones in the dark elves who can cast spells, the rulers and high-ranking members of each family are women. Men are mostly their subordinates and guards. Here, only the caster is respected, and the warrior is worthless. Just like Leo, although she is a woman, she is a "white race" and has no way to use magic, so she was given up by her family and given to the country of night. If she's an ordinary female dark elf. Then he will live a life of fine clothes and food since he was a child, and then be sent to the Spider Academy of the Dark Elves to learn those twisted spells that have been passed down in the dark underground for many years. Then, with their own wisdom, intrigue and strength, they decide whether they will become rulers or be ruled or corpses.

Under the leadership of the two dark elf patrols, Rhodes and the others were no longer hindered in any way, and they went straight through the path. And just as Rhodes turned the intersection in front of him, a huge and gorgeous city suddenly appeared in front of him.

Calessodar ——— the city of the Dark Elves.

The city is made up of hundreds or thousands of stalactite columns, which vary from place to place. Dark Elves certainly can't build their homes out of trees and vines like their cousins on the ground do, deep underground. But that doesn't mean these dark elves are at a loss for it. They chose these huge stalactite pillars as their home to live in. Most of these stout, stalactite pillars connecting the dome to the ground are about a few meters to more than ten meters high. Through their own skillful hands, the Dark Elves have carved these natural artifacts into more ornate and elegant art. As far as the eye can see, you can see among these stalactite pillars. Enchanting purple ghost fires spread all over it, as if forming a sea of stars composed of purple stars. The sharp stalagmites are topped with statues of various devils, which are connected to form a thick wall up to ten meters high, blocking all attacks from outsiders. At first glance, the dark cavities at the top of the stalagmites may seem like nothing more than corroded and weathered cavities, but Rhodes knew that the small caverns contained deadly bows and sharp weapons.

As they had heard, the city of Calles Sodar had been completely locked down. When Rhodes and the others came to the gate, the heavy and huge iron gate built in the stalagmite group had been hoisted high, and it seemed as if it had completely closed off all outsiders. Looking at the heavy iron gate above the crow, Rhodes frowned, and then he lowered his head and looked at the moat made of lava in front of him, which was seven or eight meters wide. This is the biggest reliance of Calessodal, if there is not enough force. Those who dared to attack the city would be swallowed up by the hot lava without even having a chance to fight, but alas, no one dared to try it yet.

However, the historical void was originally meant to be filled by people.

"We brought our esteemed guests! We ask to enter Calessodar immediately!! ”

Looking at the heavy iron gate in front of him, the Dark Elf guards who were in charge of leading the way for Rhodes in front immediately shouted loudly. He reached out, took a piece of iron from his waist bag, roasted it on top of the lava river, and threw it high onto the ——— which in the dark elves' code was an emergency, demanding that the door be opened immediately.

“…………………… Boom Rumble ..............."

It wasn't until a moment later that the silent iron gate slowly fell, forming a huge and heavy bridge. Immediately after, the sharp and huge iron fence inside creaked and slowly opened, and Calessodar. The city of dark elves has finally revealed its true colors to everyone in front of them.

As expected.

Glancing around, Rhodes made sure of his judgment in his mind. It seems that these dark elves really do not intend to prevent themselves and others from entering, after all, Calessodar is a huge city, and there are sixty-seven families of dark elves living here, each of whom has thousands of well-armed dark elf soldiers in their hands, and there are already tens of thousands of bear goblins or slaves of other races. If Rhodes hadn't shown enough strength to terrify the dark elves. Then he and others will pay for their actions.

And at this time, Rhodes saw nine well-equipped Dark Elf soldiers trotting all the way to himself and the others, and then saluted Rhodes with the leader of the Dark Elf squad who looked like they were giving orders.

"Welcome to the city of Calessodal."

He said to Rhodes without the slightest emotion, as if he were a clumsy person reading the manuscript.

"We have been notified of your intentions. But I'm sorry, I think you're already aware that the city of Calessodar is closed at the moment, and not just here. The same is true for passages in other places. Due to a small accident, we are not able to open the passage to other places for the time being, so if you are planning to travel to other places through the city of Calessodal, then I must warn you in advance that it may take a long time. ”

"Thanks for the reminder."

Hearing this, Rod raised his eyebrows, he didn't say anything more in this regard, it was obvious. This is the Dark Elves' delaying tactic. If Rhodes had shown enough strength, they would have been told in a very short time that there would have been no problems with the road they needed to go. But if they can't do it. Then they will never have to leave the underground city again...............

It's funny.

Reaching out, he gently stroked the hilt of the sword at his waist. Rhodes narrowed his eyes and stared at the dark elf in front of him. In the face of his gaze, the dark elf guard didn't seem to have any fear, he just nodded to Rhodes and the others. Then he turned and walked into the city, and Rod waved his hand. Then he walked into the city with the others. The moment Rhodes walked into the gates, he turned his head and glanced at the shadows around him, seemingly unconcerned, and then Rhodes withdrew his gaze and continued to walk forward.

He didn't seem to notice it at all. At this moment, behind him, in the shadows of the stalagmite city wall not far away, three women in black mage robes were standing. They held the whip of the hydra in their hands, and their dark robes were sewn with bright red spiders. This was the sign of a high-ranking mage, and they watched the backs of Rhodes and the others until they disappeared.

"I don't think these people look threatening, they're just a bunch of ordinary surface crawlers."

One of the dark elf mages spoke disdainfully, and then she glanced defiantly at another of her fellow who stood silently beside her.

"It seems that the quality of the guards of the Eighteenth Family really needs to be improved, and I can't see at all what these people are capable of completely destroying the patrol. Truth be told, I don't think the Manus family should manage their men well, and it's not a glorious move of the dark elves to exaggerate the threat of their enemies in order to cover up their defeats. ”

“…………… I think there must be something remarkable about these people, as they include the elite guards of the House of Solona, who are members of the Third Family, and among them are the second sons of the Mother of Solona. ”

The other female mage was obviously dissatisfied with the other party's mockery of her family, and she narrowed her eyes and glared at the other party coldly. Hearing her speak, the dark elf woman who had spoken provocatively before sneered, opened her mouth and was about to say something, but at this moment, the third woman, who had been silent before, suddenly spoke.

"The white elf who came in with me, I have some impression of her. If I'm not mistaken, it's Leo. ”

"Leo?"

Hearing this, the other two dark elves were stunned.

"Isn't that the third daughter of the Eighth Family? I think she seemed to have been sent to the surface a long time ago, why is she here? ”

"I don't know what to do."

The mage shook her head, her eyes shining with a strange light.

"However, I think it is necessary to inform the Eighth Family about this ........."

Then, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, revealing an icy smile.

"Obviously, this time, the Durex housemother needs to give an explanation to the other families." (To be continued......)
