Chapter Ninety-Eight: Night Ruins 2
After passing through the narrow mine, you will soon enter the hinterland of the mine, which is very large, like an underground palace, full of black hole branches.
They jumped out of the minecart, turned on the searchlight they wore over their heads, and searched deeper along an unmarked cavern.
The sound of leather boots stepping on the ground covered with fine stones is like a giant beast eating bones, and it makes people's scalps tingle to hear.
After walking hundreds of meters, Lei found a collapsed branch hole, there were things reflecting under several large stones, and he took a photo to find that it was the remains of a dead miner, the finger bones were obviously shortened, and the ground was also covered with black scratches, it seems that he had endured great pain before he died, and his fingers were scratched short when he scratched his fingers on the ground.
In this era, it is not easy for everyone to live, maybe one day they will be buried in a corner like him, and become a pair of dry bones and forgotten.
"Sir, there's a discovery here!" Liana's voice came from another branch hole.
Ray immediately ran over, and Liana used her searchlight to guide Ray to look up, only to see a small hole above that barely fit people.
The miners would certainly not dig vertically upwards, which would cause a collapse, and the size of the hole was too small to look like they were in the right place.
"Look here. An Zifeng pointed to the blood stains on the ground and said.
Ray jumped up and disappeared into the black hole, sliding out of it a moment later.
"It's too deep, I'm not sure if there's a monster in there, it's too dangerous to rush in. Ray said.
"Sir, why don't we go back and gather more people before we make plans, and now we can't afford to fight it with our lives. Trayman's face turned pale, and his voice trembled a little as he spoke.
The others followed behind Ray, although they didn't say anything, but the look of fear on their faces betrayed them, how many of the people of the city guards were really hard-working.
"That's it, you find a safe place to wait for us for an hour, I'm going to investigate first and then make the next decision, in case the news is inaccurate, the above will be blamed, if I haven't come back in an hour, you will go and gather people, clear?"
Ray took the opportunity to break them apart, and with them present, he always had scruples about revealing his identity.
When the city guards heard this, of course, they couldn't answer their requests, so they hurriedly fled.
"I've finally sent these ass away, and the boss wants to kill you. Ding Ran warmly hugged the thunder.
"Okay, now is not the time to catch up, you must know more than me when you stay in the city, tell me what the hell is going on?" said Ray as he broke free from Ding Ran's bear hug.
Liana simply told Ray the clues she had found, and mysteriously took out a bottle and said, "Although Kelup is difficult to deal with, they are always low-level predators, and their sensitive sense of smell is their strength, but it is also their fatal weakness. ”
"Is this human blood?" Ray guessed Liana's plan.
"Well, I collected some last night, and I'm ready to hunt!" Liana said, unscrewing the bottle and smearing the coagulated blood at the hole and pouring more on the ground.
After tinkering, they set up an ambush in the trench of the mine, and for about two minutes there was a subtle echo in the small hole, and in the darkness Thunder could clearly see several kerup jumping down from the small hole, fighting around the blood clots on the ground, and making a piercing scream.
Lei and Cheng Gong exchanged glances, and at the same time launched a fatal blow, the trajectories of the two crossed and flashed, and all the monsters were cut into two before they could scream, and they were killed with one blow.
Liana slowly walked out of the mine, and the entire cavern was like day in the holy light.
Lei flicked a wisp of purple flame from his fingertips, and in just a few seconds, the corpse on the ground was completely burned to ashes, and after covering up the traces, Lei took the lead in getting into the passage, and several people crawled in the dark and tight space for dozens of meters, and finally saw a ray of light in front of them.
There was a large floating platform at the exit of the passage, and when they looked down, their jaws dropped when they were shocked by the scene in front of them!
The space below the cliff is very large, and the dense buildings are impossible to see at a glance, and there is a small mouth of light about a foot wide on the dome of the space, and the beam of light pierces from the sky like a sharp arrow to the center of the gloomy ruins city.
This is the remnants of the Night Elves, buried deep underground for I don't know how many years!
Liana was so excited that she couldn't help but hug Ding Ran and kiss him on the face.
Looking at this majestic ruins of the city, Lei was also very emotional, he turned around and punched above the entrance of the cave where he entered, and after a slight shaking, there was a sound of mud and rocks collapsing from inside.
"They won't be able to get in for a while, let's go, this place feels a little weird to me, you all be careful. Ray reminded them, took two deep breaths, jumped off and disappeared into the darkness.
The height of tens of meters was not a threat to them at all, and after evolving to the seventh order, their vision was also enhanced, and they could clearly see everything within a hundred meters without light.
When they set foot on the ground, they realized that they were in the city of ruins, they were as small as ants, and they really didn't know how much manpower and time it would take to build such a vast city deep underground.
"This seems to be the Andra Underground Palace. Liana said after inspecting it.
The others didn't know the history of the Night Elves, and certainly hadn't heard of this place, so they looked at her with a puzzled look on their faces, waiting for her to explain.
Liana told them that there was information about the Andra Underground Palace in a book called "The Distribution of the Hundred Tribes of the Gods".
It was built by a branch of the Dark Elves in the Age of the Gods, and it was once a glorious existence. Later, they took refuge in the forces of evil and fought against justice, which led to the purging of the Light Elves.
With the change of place name over time, the Andra Underground Palace has been forgotten by history, and if it weren't for the miners' inadvertent awakening of the Andra Underground Palace, Kairup would not have been discovered here for an unknown amount of time.
"Since you look at it in the book, how can you be sure that this is the Andra Underground Palace?" An Zifeng asked puzzled.
"Because of this. Liana pointed to the two megalithic statues standing in front of them, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the statue of Paino, the lord of Andra, because each elven branch has a different emblem, and you can see the ring on the hand holding the scepter, which is their distinctive emblem." ”
It was only under her guidance that everyone noticed a strange symbol on the ring, and Ray felt a tingling in his head when he saw the symbol, and some of the images were about to come out and finally dissipate in his mind.
Lei suddenly remembered that this symbol also appeared on his chest when he touched the passive defense of the green dragon when he was robbed by wilderness bandits in the Fallen Plains, it seems that this Andra Underground Palace has a lot to do with him, and he hopes to find the answer he wants here.
Cheng Gong noticed that Lei's face was not good, so he asked him, "Are you okay?"
Ray shook his head and said it was okay.
"Boss, there is still a trouble in front of you, you see that this heavenly moat abyss is at least two hundred meters wide, how can we go there?" Ding Ran walked to the edge of the stone statue and looked down at the bottomless abyss, worried.
The distance of two hundred meters is also a little powerless for Lei, not to mention that this is the territory of the dark elves, it is impossible to break in without any defense, and it is impossible to ensure everyone's safety.
Without what to do, Liana walked over to the two stone statues and groped for a while, the two statues clicked and turned, becoming opposite, and when the two scepters touched each other, a beam of green light shot towards the bottomless abyss.
The ground shook and there was a loud roar.
A stone bridge floated up from below, inlaid in the middle of the stone statue and in front of a gate on the opposite side.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed what was happening in front of you.
"If it weren't for you, we'd be in vain, you're amazing, Liana!" Ray said with a thumbs up.
"It's over, let's get in quickly. Liana responded casually and stepped onto the stone bridge first.
Ding Ran glanced at the ground as he walked, and immediately felt a sense of dizziness.
"Wow, how do these guys like to live in this dark place, so dangerous and not afraid of falling to death!" Ding Ran patted his chest and said.
Liana gave him a blank look and said, "You'd better not speak, as soon as you open your mouth, you will reveal your IQ, they just live in a dark dungeon, they are called Night Elves, the elves of this race have a good talent, the main ability is to control the dark magic, known as the Apostle of Death, they are more powerful than you think, at the beginning, the white elves, well, it was the Holy Light Elves who destroyed the Andra Underground Palace, but they paid a heavy price." ”
She also mentioned the origin of the feud between the Holy Light Elves and the Night Elves in passing, and everyone was distracted when she heard it.
She's the brains of the shadows, knowing everything.
Pushing open the heavy stone gate, a large road leads to the central square of the city of Andra.
Despite the long years that have passed, traces of the devastation of war can still be seen in Andra City, with ruins everywhere, broken armor and weapons, and weathered elven bones.
