The destruction of the First House caused a shock in the city of Ogilari, and even the mage in charge of lighting the pillar of fire did not know when the Brie family had such great power.

And the Brie family, who successfully seized the dominance of the first family, also immediately felt the reward of the spider queen - the mother and priestess of the Brie family both felt the increase in their strength, the family warriors were also promoted in this battle, and the martial arts chief Yamu broke through to enter the legendary path.

In terms of family strength, the Brie family has officially become the first family in Ogilari City, and no other family can surpass it - they just need to recuperate, just like the original first family, it will become a big family of thousands of people, and it will not be a problem to rule for hundreds of years.

It's just that after being boosted by the spider's strength, Opheliki didn't ask for retention when she signed the agreement with Ron - because of the increase in strength, she felt more and more that Ron was a strong man she couldn't fight, so she finally gave up the idea of letting Ron stay.

So, with the most satisfactory results, Tim led the caravan on a journey back to the surface - this time the merchant not only made a lot of profits, but most importantly, completely established a trade route - the benefits of which were enough to make Tim a wealthy and powerful merchant.

"Ron, thank you!"

Although Ron only made a temporary decision, for Tim, the gains of this trip were comparable to dozens of times - so when Ron asked to leave, he firmly grasped Ron's palm for a long time and did not let go. Eventually, all of his gratitude turned into a simple thank you.

However, Ron knew that if he needed Tim's help with anything in the future, unless it was too difficult and exceeded the rules of a businessman, Ron would be considered a good friend.

"You're welcome, then I'll take my leave. ”

"If I have the opportunity in the future, I will go to your place for tea. ”

With a smile and a light word, Ron broke away from the caravan, having already put his harvest in the dimensional packet, and as for the bantam and carriage, it was discarded.

And Tim, after watching Ron slowly disappear at the end of the torch's light, drove the caravan back to the surface - he didn't realize that yes, the black-robed feathered woman who had just joined the caravan had quietly disappeared from the caravan like an invisible person.

With no sun or torch light, most of the dark areas of the second level were cold and dark, but Ron had dark vision and could see everything clearly.

And where there are earthfire or hot springs, the troglodytes thrive - lizardmen-like but more primitive and degraded races, with blue-green skin, walking upright, a small tail dragging behind their backs, a row of soft thorns on their backs, and a perpetual rickety - and, above all, less than three feet tall, shorter than halflings.

However, cavemen still have some merit, namely their ability to reproduce and replace the infrared vision of the eye - these dwarf humanoids can work in just one year and grow into full-fledged individuals in three years.

So, even though they were so weak that the creatures of the Dark Regions could take them as prey, they still struggled to survive in the Dark Regions.

Recently, however, in addition to dealing with the old difficulties, the cavemen have encountered a new one—a group of underground lizardfolk have scurried from the dark terrain of unknown layers to the second layer, plundering and killing everywhere, making the troglodyte race more and more scarce.

............

As the leader of a small tribe of lizardmen, Rao has been in a very bad mood lately - because the great Laoli has awakened from his slumber, suddenly driven most of the underground lizardmen from the fourth layer of darkness to the second level, and has been given the task of finding a tribe of minotaurs called Bloodhoof.

However, after searching for nearly a month in the second dark area, they still have no news of the Bloodhoof Minotaur tribe - Rao can already predict how angry the god he believes in will be when he wakes up again - and in order to avoid the gods' condemnation, and even use this as an opportunity to turn the crisis into an opportunity to strengthen his tribe, Rao's more intelligent mind than the other lizardmen has come up with a solution, which is to hunt a minotaur as a captive to provide a reference- And he succeeded, only at the cost of the death of half of the tribesmen.

Then, whenever he found a troglodyte tribe, he would ask all the troglodytes to refer to the image of the minotaur to describe whether they had encountered similar creatures - the minotaur was prepared for this moment, the troglodyte lost its eyes in evolution, but evolved infrared vision - and the four stomachs unique to the minotaur gave them an extraordinarily vigorous body temperature, which was much redder and brighter than other creatures in the eyes of the troglodynian.

Today, Rao once again found a tribe of cavemen that thrived near the hot springs - he led his men to easily break through the cavemen's defenses, driving all the cavemen out of the crypt and gathering around the hot springs.

"Hello, reptiles!"

"I have some questions for you, and if you answer, then your tribe can continue. ”

"If you can't answer......

"He is your example!"

In order to interrogate the caveman, Rao also learned the language of the caveman in two months of living in the second dark area - although it is limited to some threatening words, it has to be said that he is a genius - and at this moment, Rao is threatening in the language of the caveman, and grabs a **dweller and throws it into the hot spring to enhance the credibility of his words.

"Help, help, help...... Gollum, Gollum!"

After a few struggles in the hot springs, the poor caveman immediately lost signs of life and slowly sank to the bottom of the water - although there was no sign of boiling, the hot water of the hot spring was extremely hot, and the caveman could be cooked in a few breaths - and immediately, all the cavemen who felt the threat of death trembled, fearing that they would be the next victims.

"Very well, it seems that you all get it. ”

"Drag the minotaur here!"

Looking at the caveman's body language, Rao clearly felt some kind of satisfaction - a smile appeared on his pale and ugly face, and then with a wave of the spear in his hand, a chained, scrawny, scarred minotaur was immediately dragged to the caveman - and immediately a red-hot spot of light with limbs and a head appeared in the caveman's eyes.

"Say, have you ever seen a creature like this?"

"Just tell me where I saw it, and then they went in that direction!"

"Your tribe will survive!"

"Otherwise ......" [.]
