"Fla, Misha. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info come back soon. A somewhat hoarse female voice came.

Unlike the two chubby grizzly cubs in front of them, the adult hill grizzly bears are full of oppressive force, and they are the most powerful beasts in the north, daring to fight the earth dragon in the wilderness. (Creature Level 7+)

Two Forest Guardians appeared in front of them.

Known to the outside world as the Guardians of the Forest, and they call themselves the Children of the Forest, their racial customs are somewhat like Druidic sects, but they are primitive tribal systems, with the two largest tribes in the North being the Grizzly Clan and the Shadow Leopard Clan. The two sons of the forest in front of them were about two meters tall, their eyes were brown, their skin was brown, and they were very rough, looking like tree bark.

One man and one woman.

It was a woman who spoke, beautiful with a hint of wildness, wary of Stephen.

The male Forest Guardian was a little older, he looked a little friendlier, nodding slightly at Stephen, his skin was the same color, and his arms had strange tattoos, but they still looked like tree bark. The silhouette of these forest guardians bears an eight-point resemblance to humans, with other traits inherited from the dryads.

In the history books, they are one of the oldest aboriginal people of the land.

Hearing the words of the female forest guard, the two grizzly bears reluctantly left Stephen's campfire, and then ran to the side of the mother bear, arching the mother bear with their round heads one by one, and then honestly followed behind the buttocks.

This scene looks very interesting.

The two grizzly bears are less like beasts and more like playful children.

"Let's go back. Don't run around next time. The female forest guardian picked up a small grizzly bear with a soft gaze and rubbed it, then glanced at Stephen, put away her longbow and turned into the forest.

This is their territory.

Even though the Normans conquered the land, the forest still belonged to them, and the old contract reads - 'The plains belong to the Normans, and the forests belong to the children of nature'.

No one dares to break this tradition.

While the Normans possessed mastery of metallurgy, the forest guards did not even have decent iron tools. This race is rich in excellent marksmen, whose skin can become as tough as tree bark. Unlike the active Argonians, the Forest Guardians are silent and independent, following ancient customs and traditions, not even going out to be adventurers.

"Interesting. Stephen watched the two Forest Guardians go away, but he couldn't help but think, "It doesn't look like the elf species I remember?"

"Is it a descendant of the primordial elves?"

"I really want to grab one and dissect it! Forget it! I'll talk about it later. ”

There will always be differences in different worlds, as if before passing through the turbulence of time and space, the dragons that the Arcane Council was most familiar with were five-colored dragons and metal dragons, but when they came to a new starry sky, the dragons they encountered were completely different from the past, they did not belong to the five-colored dragons or metal dragons, but to another unique primordial dragon. (There is no longer a distinction between good and evil by color.) ）

Especially when they first came into contact with Quetzalcoatl, the casters of the Arcane Council debated for a long time whether it should be classified as a xenosaur.

"Almost, let's keep going. Stephen gathered his things and stood up.

A brief encounter made him curious about the forest guards, but because of the xenophobic nature of the race, he would have to wait until he wanted to study them. (Most races in this world are xenophobic, and humans are the most accepting of foreigners.) Maybe it's because humans are naturally curious and prefer to watch. ）

Stephen can only be sure at the moment that they have the ability to raise animal companions.

Whether it is the huge female bear or the two round grizzly bears, they have undoubtedly received blessings similar to 'enlightenment', which can allow the beast to open up its wisdom, and in the later stage, it will become a magical creature, just like the spirits in Middle-earth mythology.

Of course, there are still very few who are so magical, and most of them are no longer in the material plane.

Stephen didn't encounter any accidents after passing through the Bear Valley, but after entering Dragon City territory, he visibly felt desolate around him. Large tracts of fertile land were overgrown with weeds, and the long-term war had left the land increasingly deserted, and the wandering Argonian bandits forced humans to move out of the area, and the Normans failed several times.

There was some extra wreckage on the side of the road.

Stephen travels through an abandoned village, which is no longer inhabited by living people.

The Normans and Argonians were mainly in the northern swamps, and Stephen targeted the mines in the south, avoiding the frontal outbreak of the conflict.

Dragon City is extremely rich in minerals.

The gold mines here have been mined for hundreds of years and have not been exhausted, and the mining area is one of the most active areas in Dragon City, with three large towns scattered around, and a large number of adventurers come to try their luck every year. Because of the long time it has been mined, the mining area of Dragon City extends in all directions and is bottomless, and there are not only all kinds of monsters in it, but also the occasional wandering ghost. There are a lot of missions released here every year, and it's a little better on the new side of the mine, where accidents basically happen every month in the old mine. Legend has it that the mines of Dragon City have been dug deep underground, a world shrouded in darkness inhabited by mysterious and unknown dangerous species.

The rumors may not be true, but one thing is certain, the mining area of Dragon City is really digging deep and deep!

Judging from all aspects of information.

Stephen wondered if they had dug through the underworld.

It took him a day to traverse the Dragonbone Wilderness, a dangerous area where the wurmists once raised the earth dragon species, which was originally the birthplace of the wurm camel beast.

The first town in the mining area was called Vala.

As soon as Stephen arrived, he found that this place was a little more lively than expected, because there were a large number of heavily armed adventurers, Normans, Highlanders, Southerners, Dwarves, Argonians, etc., many adventurer squads gathered around the tavern, and they talked about nothing more than two things, one was the rebels in Dragon City, and the second was the mission to investigate the mines.

In the last few months.

From Mine 1 to Mine 5, strange events have occurred, either being attacked by mysterious creatures or miners suddenly disappearing. Many of the adventurers who went underground with the mission disappeared, and now the entire mining union is in a state of panic, and many new ore veins have had to be stopped.

The most serious place is a newly discovered sapphire mine located in the deepest part of the ground, and a whole team of guards is directly wiped out in the depths of the ground!

Now people are desperate to figure out what's going on.

This is probably the first time that the aborigines of this world have come into contact with a mysterious species from deep underground, and the entire mining area is full of rumors, and people are talking about the appearance of underground creatures from fragmented information. Some people say that there are fierce beasts that can tear the wurmians to pieces, others say that there are intelligent creatures that look similar to us living underneath, and some adventurers swear that they have seen some humanoid monsters without eyes in the depths of the ground!

According to the research report of "Planetary Hollowing", Stephen knows that the probability of the existence of the underground world is very high.
