Chapter 540: I'm Coming Underground to See the Scenery

The tunnel was dark and winding, making everyone feel as if they had been swallowed into the esophagus of the worldly snake, and they would never reach the end.

In the first tens of miles, the tunnel was narrow and long, tortuous, and only one carriage was allowed to pass through the narrowest place, plus the blue sky and white clouds were lost overhead, replaced by a soil dome, and the cramped feeling of oppression was like the breath of a fierce beast, rushing to the face.

It was as if they had thrown themselves into a cage, slowly moving towards death.

The rock walls on both sides are badly weathered, and stones fall from time to time.

There were not a few people who were hit, but after the initial panic, everyone had adapted to this non-combat attrition, and the only thing they could do was to put a shield on it.

"It's a terrible atmosphere!"

The minotaurs muttered, trying to keep their eyes open to see the road.

As the sunlight disappeared, everyone took out the magic stone lanterns, and in the dark area, they seeped like ghosts and ghosts.

I don't know how long it took to pass the road, but there was a sudden cheer in front of me, and after walking for a while, Downton's vision suddenly opened up.

The underground tunnel is finally complete.

After a dozen magic lighting catapults shot into the sky, they were reflected in front of everyone's eyes in an endless plain, and clusters of shadow plants were growing unscrupulously, but the leaves were all eeriely dark green.

There was no sun in the dark area, but it was not the darkness that Downton had guessed before, but it was dim, like the moment when dusk was about to fade and night changed.

In addition to a few glowing fireflies flying, there are also plenty of bryophytes that fluoresce and provide a faint glow.

"Any ecological environment is balanced and complementary, and the Underworld is a different species form than the surface. ”

Homer saw Downton shocked by the sight he saw for the first time, and for him popularized science, in addition to these various glowing plants. There is also a large amount of fluorescent stone underground.

Although the eyes of the underground natives are naturally adapted to dimness, they also need lighting in some particularly dark places, and no one has the luxury of using magic stones all the time, so these fluorescent stones are natural lanterns.

Downton noticed that some of the mercenaries had spontaneously scattered to collect fluorescent stones. Then put it in a net pocket that had been prepared for a long time, and a simple lantern was made.

"Attention, the first dimensional rift will be reached in two kilometers!"

A team of mercenaries rode their horses back and forth, loudly reminding them that approaching the rift in the plane meant that the turbulence in the plane began to appear, which was an unguardable danger.

Hu Tao rubbed his eyes, not quite used to the dimness, and the others did the same. There is no treatment for this condition, and it will only be relieved after a few days.

Most of the mounts are not used to this kind of environment, so their combat effectiveness has been weakened to varying degrees, but the Green Goblin is an exception, and the abyss zone where this guy lives is not much better than here, so it seems to have returned to his hometown and is completely happy.

People nearby looked sideways, and there was no way. In the underworld, the Green Goblin, who has four hooves and walks on green flames, is the most conspicuous existence.

"Get used to running in the dark. You're going to have to fight in this environment for the rest of the year. ”

Homer reminded.

Downton nodded, rolled over and rode the Green Goblin, trotting for a while, he had already noticed that everyone was on their mounts and began to do all kinds of equestrian maneuvers, originally thinking that they were moving their hands and feet. I didn't expect it to be familiar with the environment.

As he walked forward, the gap between the ground and the dome became wider and wider, and when he reached the back of the dome, Downton looked up and could no longer see the 'ceiling'. In its place was a large expanse of long-lasting mist.

Hu Tao sat on the back of the air ray, curiously scurrying around, and Downton made her carry a shield on her back for safety.

"I don't like it here!"

The chief scratched at his hair and grumbled sullenly.

The dark area is damp and cold, so that the skin is always sticky and uncomfortable, and there are countless tide insects crawling around in the soil, not to mention nausea, if you are bitten, you can swell a big bag.

A battle broke out in front of them, but the shouts of killing didn't die down for even a minute, and the panic didn't continue to this side.

"Don't worry, it's the Underground Monster attacking the caravan. ”

Cindy explained that for the demons and monsters that inhabit the area, passing caravans are their prey, and every time a caravan crosses the border, it is a hunting season.

Half an hour later, Downton saw the dimensional rift, it was like a mouth cracked in space, growing in the air out of thin air, surrounded by black light overflowing, when the plane fluctuated strongly, it would shoot out an arc-shaped turbulence similar to the wind blade.

These turbulences can fly far away, some fast, some slow, but all of them are extremely sharp and can easily break the shield of the seventh order of judgment.

As the caravan continued to move forward, there were more and more rifts in the plane, and the turbulence in the plane was also dense and terrifying, and it had begun to appear attrition, especially the loss of pack horses, after all, they could not dodge flexibly.

"It's a route with few cracks, and if you take anything else, you'll be torn apart. ”

Cindy had already beckoned everyone to dismount early, because only by standing on the ground could she dodge quickly.

"The beast god is above, this place is really terrifying!"

The minotaurs muttered roughly, all grasping the totem poles, carefully guarding the surroundings, ready to block the turbulence of the plane at any time.

"Demonic beasts and demons are also afraid of plane turbulence, since they live here, it must be in a place where there are few rifts in the plane, right?" Downton frowned, "Then aren't we walking near their lair?"

"I'm Deboro, isn't I?"

Downton's words made everyone scream, and the Minotaur and his party became even more nervous.

"That's right, but compared to the elusive turbulence, even if it is a high demon, the caravan is not without the power to fight. ”

Sindy glanced at Downton and couldn't help but secretly praise, this kid has a strong ability to reason.

The initial caravan lost a lot of pathfinders, and it was still unable to find exactly where there was the least turbulence, and later found that the place where there was a monster's lair was relatively safe, and only then did it break out of a trade route.

Monsters and demons have been slain one after another, but there is nowhere else to go but to build nests in these places, so every once in a while, their numbers will explode again, and the brutal environment has also trained their ferocious aggression.

Twilight peeks at Downton. In the whole team, he was the most relaxed, and he was constantly wandering, as if he was communicating with someone again.

"Big brother, look, bushes. Hu Tao smiled and pointed to the clusters of bushes that appeared on the horizon. "What is it like for me to go berry picking and try wild fruits from the dark regions?"

"Come back soon!"

Downton was startled, got on the Green Goblin and went after Walnut.

"What's wrong?"

Hu Tao was puzzled.

"It shouldn't rain underground, so the increase in vegetation means that the underground water veins are abundant, and the demonic beasts must inhabit this kind of place, as for the shrubs and nuts, they are naturally the food of the herbivorous demonic beasts, so their existence will inevitably attract carnivorous demonic beasts. ”

"Not bad. Ahead is the hunting ground of the Warcraft, everyone should be twelve times more careful. ”

As soon as Cindy finished speaking, a team of mercenaries began to run, alerting everyone to attention.

The wagon ran over, leaving two deep ruts in the soft dirt, and bugs the size of fingernails roamed wildly, picking up jerky and cheese dropped by the mercenaries.

Shout!

A cobra sprang out of the bushes and swooped down on the black-robed man. But as soon as he got closer, a blade light flashed in the air. Then blood splattered, and the cobra broke into three pieces and fell to the ground, twisting in pain.

"So fast!"

The chieftain, who had always been full of self-confidence, couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

"Ha Luha, game, if you don't want it, give me snake soup stew at night. ”

Muller ran over to himself. Without waiting for the black-robed man to agree, he had already picked up the snake corpse.

"You'd better throw it away, the smell of blood will attract more monsters. ”

Cindy advised.

In fact, along the way, the caravan's troubles have never stopped, and all kinds of demonic beasts have emerged one after another. One after the other attacked.

Downton and his party were fine, but there was already a wail in the team.

In this terrible dark environment, the scout's vigilance range is limited, and the danger is greatly increased, whether it is a monster or a demon, they are all natives, occupy excellent locations, and have ferocious and cunning attack methods, all of which are unstoppable sneak attacks, resulting in the team has been attrition.

All the corpses were thrown away, not because the companions didn't want to bury them, but because even if the graves were dug up, they would be dug up and devoured by the scavengers following the smell.

Downton finally knew that the caravan was going to march for several days without resting, because in this situation of attrition at any time, even the morale of elite soldiers was greatly reduced.

Airplanes!

After marching for most of the day, a long horn suddenly sounded, and the atmosphere of the entire caravan instantly tensed, and everyone dropped their goods, brushed out their weapons, and formed a small battle formation.

"The devil is coming!" Cyndy shouted, taking a quick look around with an arrow, and running towards the group, "quick, join them." ”

"Hurry!"

The chief kept urging his subordinates to speed up.

If the demon attacks at the end of the team, then he will undoubtedly become cannon fodder, and although he promises to fight when he joins the caravan, Cindy will not be stupid enough to fight the enemy, at least until a mercenary group comes to protect the action.

Compared to the monsters, the demons have intelligence, so they do not act blindly, and after learning that the caravan is passing, the demon leader will recruit his subordinates and form a coalition to hunt.

These races belonging to the chaotic evil camp are always crazy and brutal, they don't bother to use tactics at all, and will only swarm at the enemy, but the number of nearly a thousand and the murderous army are enough to make the morale of any enemy plummet.

"Archer ready!"

"Mage Corps prepare!"

There were shouts in the air, these mercenaries were of good quality, at least there was no tension in the commander's voice.

Of course, even if they are nervous, they don't dare to show it, otherwise it will cause a bad chain reaction.

"Don't hide, take your men to the back of the line, and get ready for battle!" a deputy regiment commander arrived with his subordinates and yelled at Sinty, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." ”

The demon horde is like a storm, killing in an instant!(To be continued......
