Chapter 285: An Unexpected Encounter

Sending his friend Barrett away via a teleportation circle, Krees continues to patrol the city of the Mind Flayer, or "hang out" as it is called.

Today is ...... The little mage thought hard, then took out a pocket watch-like thing from the spatial ring and looked down at it.

On October 20, 687, he shook his head and smiled. If you count by date, yesterday should be your birthday, but not in this world, but on another blue planet.

It has been nearly 5 years since Krees found himself in this fantasy world, and his memories of the past are gradually beginning to blur, and he is sometimes in a trance, and he can't even tell whether he is a traversal or an aborigine.

Forget it, these things don't have much meaning until now, and the most important thing is to enjoy the current magnificent and colorful life.

Kris hummed a song that he couldn't remember the lyrics of, and walked towards a nearby group of caveman slaves. As the group of slaves was having lunch, the little mage snatched the roasted mushroom from the nearest caveman, and then reached out to the largest individual in the group.

The big cave man held a large air-dried toad pierced by a wooden skewer in his hand, and he raised his head and looked at Krees pitifully, but in the silent continuous persecution of the little mage, he reluctantly handed over the air-dried toad in his hand.

With a roasted mushroom in one hand and an air-dried toad in the other, the little mage continued to stroll through the city as he ate it.

Not far ahead is a large circular building. Because the Drow are an extremely arrogant, ambitious, and cruel race, their cities are always home to this special structure, the 'Bloody Arena'.

Powerful monsters captured by the Drow Elves, alien slaves with outstanding martial arts, and even the Drow Elves themselves will fight in this blood-soaked arena. If a slave or warrior is lucky enough to be favored by a female nobleman among the drows, then his status will be changed drastically.

Krees walked into the arena as he bit the toad, which was empty, but he could still smell a rather pungent smell of blood. The little mage walked half a circle around the arena, and on one of the seats, found a leather neckbag.

The drow nobles would use this necklace to hold their family's crest, while the commoners would use it to hold a black metal plaque of the drow family they served.

At this point, the necklace contained a round silver family crest with a green spider surrounded by a snake's head whip on the front (most drow crests are spiders of various forms) and the family initials "M" on the back......

The city of Drow, formerly known as 'Sastyria', was very large, and Krees vaguely heard that there were nearly twenty Drow families in the city at the beginning, and he didn't know how many of them were in front of him, and whether anyone escaped alive in the battle and passed on his family.

The little mage put away the necklace and family crest, threw the eaten wooden skewers on the ground, turned and walked out of the arena.

Near the arena was a deep pit enclosed by an iron fence, surrounded by four minotaurs in half-armor and armed with twin axes.

This pit is a 'spider abyss', and those who have not passed the test of the spider goddess, the arachnid elf, are still breathing in this pit.

From time to time, drow elves would throw prisoners who offended the spider goddess, wronged slaves, and the dead in the arena into deep pits and give them to the arachnoid elves for food.

The pit also seems to connect to the many caves and tunnels around the city, where unlucky monsters like hybrids of arachnids crawl back and forth, serving as the city's outer defenses.

The vast majority of the arachnids had been wiped out by the Mind Flayer during the brutal siege, but a small number remained in the pit and its connected tunnels. Even now, they weren't completely cleared, and occasionally angry screams from the depths of the darkness could be heard.

Skirting the abyss of arachnoid abyss of corpses and pain, a large area ahead is civilian.

The city's buildings resemble a giant woven spider web, with the Spider Goddess's prayer tower at its center. Next to it is a sacrificial hall and a priest's school.

The higher the rank, the higher the Drow family, the more they will move away from the Prayer Tower in the center, and the civilians will always live on the periphery of the cobweb.

Chris likes to look around the ruined city and admire the remarkable people.

The aristocratic quarter has towering mushrooms and huge stalactite pillars, the top of which is inlaid with bright purple crystals, whether it is outdoor carvings or indoor furnishings and utensils, they are quite exquisite, quite similar to the style of their above-ground cousins.

The civilian quarters, on the other hand, are much more modest, and all the drow civilians who live here have to work non-stop, such as farming, making handicrafts, or joining the army.

At this time, the houses in this area are almost empty. The number of Mind Flayers in the city is not too large (the little mage has always controlled their number), and even the aristocratic districts are generally not filled, and their huge slave armies live in the barracks on the other side of the city, as well as various defenses such as walls and towers, which are convenient for unified management.

Turning a corner, Krees meets an army of slaves patrolling the nearby area. It consists of three Stoneblind Barbarian vassals armed with stone axes and spears, and two Grey Dwarves with war hammers on their shoulders.

When the fellows saw Krees, they quickly put their weapons on the ground and stood on the side of the street, waiting for the little mage to pass before picking up their weapons and continuing their patrol.

As Krees passed through the half-hidden door of a building, he overheard a faint "bang, bang" sound coming from inside.

The little mage stopped curiously, and turned to walk towards the strange sound of the building.

Reaching out and pushing the half-hidden door open, it was dark inside. However, Krees, who casts the 'Dark Vision' spell, can see things in the dark with ease, just like those underground natives.

The door creaked against the wall, and the strange noise inside the building became louder. Something seemed to be running in panic, and the sound of clear footsteps running was clearly not something that a creature like a rat could make.

Could it be that there are remnants of the Drow Elves here?

To be on the safe side, although his soul and mage's robe were constantly equipped with a series of protective spells such as 'Mage Armor' and 'Deflection Force Field', the little mage still set a few more spells for himself.

The brilliance of his magic continued to shine around him, such as 'Protective Arrows', 'Reaction Spirit Armor', 'Stone Skin Technique', 'Elemental Shield', 'Reverse Lightning Kill', 'Demon Flame Protection', and so on......

After the Magic Empire, new mages can use magic unscrupulously as long as their own magic power is sufficient, and there is no restriction on magic net spell slots.

After adding it, Krees followed the footsteps he had heard earlier, and slowly walked towards the house.

The kitchen-style room was turned into a mess, with a lot of cutlery and food bags scattered on the floor. Krees didn't know if it was rummaging through the slave army when they were collecting food, or if it was the one who fled in panic.

The little mage walked across the kitchen and continued on.

The sound of footsteps sounded like they were entering the room on the left hand side of the front, and the door of this room was still shaking slightly, and it was obvious that the thing was inside.

Using his dual-casting talent, Krees prepared an attack spell and a control spell at the same time, walked over slowly, and gently pushed the door open.

In the corner of this bedroom-like room, a drow was huddled. To be exact, it was an albino drow toddler who was naked (harmoniously), with a sickly pale complexion, and who looked very young.
