Chapter 68: Hollow

The intricate underground town is more apt to call it a sewer than a town

Most people choose to cover their mouth and nose with a slightly cleaner cloth and try to filter out the sour smell that pervades the air

The human race lives in groups, so that most of them live together, however, there are still many unknown things hidden in the huge ancient sewers and ancient towns, and the yellow-clothed cultists have taken root here

Groot followed the group out of the noisy and intricate alleys of the slums, and it didn't take long for him to come out of a dark corner, which was obviously far away from the crowd, and Groot looked back, the faint flames and figures reflected in the slums were still moving, and his side was almost dark

It was eerily silent, wolf eyes and claws beneath the tattered robes, and Groot was avoiding the faintest sound

The slightest squeak of a rat echoes with a loud, ethereal echo, and the road twists and turns, turning over a pile of man-made stone walls and disgusting animal carcasses, and the group suddenly disappears

Groot was a little surprised, how could the group of people who were in front of him just now suddenly disappear, he sensed with his soul power, and found that this group of people was falling rapidly, could it be that there is a tunnel here.

Groot carefully eviscerated the dead rats and animals on the ground, and sure enough, there was an iron fence hidden under the rubbish

This group of guys can really endure it, they are worthy of being underwater creatures, and they are heavy enough]

Groot used his pinky thumb to pry open the keyhole above, open the gate on the bar, and jumped in

However, at this time, Groot, who was engrossed, did not notice the several figures following behind him

The long corridor twists and turns, and the method is in the belly of some giant, but the garbage in it makes people feel like it is in the digestive organs of some monster

Contrary to Groot's expectations, this place was more complicated than he imagined, and Groot lost it for a while

He had thought of taking the middle path, but he couldn't help but go around to the left, and there was no sign of turning back, and finally when Groot was about to give up, a horn-shaped exit appeared in front of him

It's this!]

Groot couldn't help but be stunned by the world in front of him, the huge void in his wolf eyes

Impressively a city-state, a relic that had been submerged in the dust of history, he stood on a cliff and looked down

The dense and neat streets and dwellings, like matchboxes, were quietly lined up, and the closer you got to the center, the bigger the houses became, carved with a race never seen before, and a worm-like body with the body of an extremely beautiful woman

But when they arrived in the center of the city, the whole thing changed, a large number of houses were destroyed, and when they reached the very center, a dark pit appeared, and the surrounding houses seemed to fall into it

Seeing this, Groot almost forgot what he was here for, and a strong desire to learn and explore pulled him

I can't imagine that this kingdom was built on ruins, it's really not simple]

Groot sensed something large in front of him, and he cautiously touched it, and suddenly, a pale blue curtain of light appeared

What's that?]

He touched it with his hand, and this soft and smooth touch was impressive

A bubble filled with seawater!】

He couldn't believe that there could be such a big blister, hidden in the rubble

If you jump down, if you can't get up, you won't have to suffocate to death.]

He shook his head and muttered

I saw that God wanted me to turn back, let's go, there is still something to do, those three fools are still counting on me]

However, just as Groot got back into the narrow passage, thousands of huge sandworms suddenly poured out of the abyss behind him, frantically rushing towards the location that Groot had just touched, but they couldn't get out of the beautiful blisters of light blue

It's a good thing Groot didn't see this, otherwise he would have sliced the disgusting creatures and stomped on them twice, after all, all the creatures that claim to be superior seem to hate worms and tentacles

Which way is it?]

Groot searched for a long time, and finally found shallow footprints in an inconspicuous passage, but it seemed that they were not fishmen, but left by several humans

Could it be that there are still people in this city who are also looking for this group of deep divers?]

Except for the king and the three fools, almost no one will take the initiative to investigate the secrets of the Yellow Coat, Groot learned from the king that there were people who were interested in their whereabouts before, he and the people have not only formed an expedition team to explore the underground town, but either in vain, or there is no news, so he simply gave up the investigation, this time Groot accidentally stumbled and discovered this mysterious and ancient underground kingdom and the lair of the cultists

Now, Groot is sure, he once again perceives the existence of soul energy, and there are quite a few of them

Not far from where Groot was, the group of Yellow-clad cultists was carrying out rituals, and when they met, most of them were doing some crazy things in response to the call of the superior monsters

This time was no exception, every time they cycled, they would regularly and quantitatively sacrifice sacrifices to worshippers, and the scene would once be very chaotic, but this time, there was an unexpected episode

The congregation was arguing over what to sacrifice

Of course, it's these dozens of sea fish.]

A guy in a gray-green cloth robe and armed with a crooked dagger said, he seemed to have a lot of weight in the crowd, and not just in his body disk

I saw that the fish-man priest, who was a little too fat, waved his hands comically and gestured, and continued

Have you all forgotten how delicious the fish was last time, Lord Black Goat?

It couldn't stop cooing

However, the group of guys in pale yellow linen robes beside it obviously didn't accept its words

Now that you've caught the living, don't fill it with fish!]

It pulled the human beside it and yelled loudly

Look at how strong these three guys are, they must be delicious and juicy, and Lord Black Goat will definitely be satisfied]

These captured humans are the three people who asked Groot for help before

Oh well]

The fish-man priest said,

How the hell did you catch these three guys]

The yellow-clad fish-man replied

Do you still need to catch them, they sent them themselves]

However, at this time, the three men explained in the same language of Deep Divers

We're fish-people, we're deep divers, you see, I still have gills around my neck.]

At this time, Groot saw it clearly from the sidelines, and he was secretly surprised in his heart

These three guys look simple, but they are hidden so deeply]

Groot had wondered why these people still wore cloth scarves around their necks, but now he finally understood

However, if they boldly reveal their identities like this, I'm afraid that the appearance of humans will not be able to win the trust of deep divers.

Groot thought so

Sure enough, the group of fishmen didn't take their words seriously at all, and plunged a dagger into the shoulder of the person who spoke

Shut up]

It threatened viciously

Even if you're already here, we won't let you go back alive.]

As he spoke, he turned around and motioned for the other sacrifices to begin the ritual

A large group of fishmen poured the stored fresh shirts on the ground on the strange pattern, and in an instant, the whole space was filled with a disgusting stench

Goo, goo, goo]

They each held a black staff that twisted in their hands, and they were pounding it and muttering words in their mouths

However, when Groot heard what they said, he almost burst out laughing

Your Excellency the Black Goat, who we haven't seen for a year, we miss you very much, we want to hear your beautiful voice that is often disgusting, we miss your black mouthparts, we miss your majestic and powerful tentacles, if you can hear our call, please show up, there are three strong men here waiting for you to enjoy]

Groot covered his mouth, he couldn't help it

What kind of summoning words are written?]

He rolled over and jumped out of the passage behind him, pulled the bandage off his arm, and pulled out the identical summoning book

I'm going to show you what a standard summoning ritual is!]

Frightened, the fishmen quickly aimed their weapons at Groot

Who are you]

Groot's vocal organs couldn't speak their voices, but because of the previous relationship with the black goat, he could understand them, and he made a gesture that all races could understand

The fish-man was furious and shouted

Chop him to death, chop him up, and feed him to Lord Black Goat!]

At this time, the three guys also noticed Groot and hurriedly shouted

Help us, sir, help us]

Groot said as he easily dodged the fish-man's attack

Then you're going to have to explain to me how you got here.]
