Plop glanced at it and sniffed vigorously. "Hey hey guy!" she muttered to herself. Waving her hand, she shouted. "Go back!

"Let's go up! Take the elevator! The big boss is angry!" one shouted.

"Let's go down and see the pounce king!" said puff smit.

Hearing this, the dwarves began to step back, cursing.

But Rodrith couldn't move for a moment, he coughed dryly, his voice echoing through the empty tube. Puff looked at him nervously, then reached into the bag and searched for a moment before pulling out something. She glanced at the light, narrowed her eyes, and sighed, "It's not what I want." ”

Wade saw a flash of color, and he approached and asked, "What's that?" though he knew the answer, and Rodrith squinted at her. Poof, shrugged. "Pretty stone," she said disinterestedly, continuing to look for the bag. "A piece of emerald!" said Rodrith hoarsely.

Puff looked up, "Do you like it?" she asked Rodres.

"Loved it!" the mage was taken aback.

"You keep it," Puff said, handing the gem to the mage. Then she shouted excitedly, and she pulled out what she was looking for. Wade leaned closer to see what was new, but retreated disgustingly. It was a dead — long dead — lizard. There is also a leather rope that is bitten off with teeth and tied to the lizard's tail.

Puff take it to Rodris.

"You hang around your neck. She said, "Cure the cough." ”

The mage, accustomed to dealing with something more disgusting than that, politely thanked Pounce, smiled and declined the gift, assuring her that the cough would get better later. She looked at the mage suspiciously, but his cough did gradually improve, and the violent cough had passed.

After a few minutes, Flutter shrugged his shoulders and put the lizard back in the bag. Rodrith judged the jade with an expert eye and glared at Wade with a warning eye. The Khander sighed, turned and continued to move down. Rodrith put the jade in the secret pocket inside his robe.

As the water pipes in front of him forked, Wade paused and looked back at the dwarves. Plop hesitated and pointed to the water pipes in the south. Wade slowly climbed in. "It's slippery!" he suddenly began to slide rapidly. He tried to slow down, but the moss was too thick, and Calamon cursed loudly from behind, and it seemed that his friends were in the same trouble as him.

Suddenly, there was a light in Wade's eyes. The passage is coming to an end! But where does it lead? Wade's mind suddenly came to mind the tragic situation of falling straight from a height of five hundred feet. But he simply couldn't stop the slide. The light grew brighter and brighter, and Wade screamed and fell out.

Rodrith slipped out of the hose and nearly fell on Poof. The mage looked around, and in a trance felt like he had fallen into a fire, and the room was filled with white smoke, and Rodrith began to cough and feel suffocated.

"What!" Hubble flew out of the tube, hands and knees on the ground. He tried to figure out what was going on around him. "Poison gassed?" he crawled to the mage in surprise. Rodrith shook his head, but he couldn't speak. Plop grabbed the mage and dragged him towards the door. Scarlet Moon fell to the ground, almost fainting in pain. The river breeze twisted and fell out, avoiding Scarlet Moon's body.

Calamon made a loud noise as he came down, his armor and shield slowing him down to the point where he could crawl out. But he was bruised all over his body, and there was a lot of moss hanging from him. When Robert arrived, everyone was coughing in the smoke.

"What the hell is this?" said Robert, surprised, and soon he inhaled white smoke and began to cough. "Get out of here. He coughed.

"Where's the Valley Dwarf?"

Plop appeared in the doorway. She had pulled Rhodelis out of the room, and now she gestured for the others to follow. The others gratefully walked outside into the clean air and gasped against the walls of the ruins. Robert hopes they won't see a whole team of dragons right away. Suddenly he looked up. "Where's Wade?" he struggled to his feet.

"I'm coming. A choked guy with an intermittent voice said.

Robert turned.

Wade—Robert assumes he is—stands in front of him. The Kandes were covered from head to toe with a layer of white powder.

Only a pair of brown eyes were seen blinking under the white mask.

"What's going on?" the half-elf asked. He had never seen a person so miserable.

Wade didn't speak, he just pointed behind his back.

Robert suddenly felt nervous, and he ran to the room, where the white smoke had disappeared and he could clearly see what was in the room. In one of the corners, directly opposite the outlet of the water pipe, there are many huge bags. Two of them opened their mouths, and a lot of white powder erupted from them.

Robert suddenly understood. He put his hand on his face to hide his smile. "Flour. He muttered.

The night of the cataclysm was a night of nightmares for the lair of the lone dragon. When the flaming mountains fell on the land of Candela, the land cracked, and the ancient, beautiful lair of the lone dragon slipped into a large pit created by the collapse of the earth.

Therefore, most of the people in the world who have not had the opportunity to see it speculate that it has been swallowed by the new sea. But it still exists, hanging in underground caverns - with the ruins of many different buildings on each floor.

The building that the group had fallen into, Robert presumably a bakery, was in the middle of the floor, and they were blocked by rocks, so they did not fall off the cliff. Groundwater flows down from both sides of the rock. Walk through the ruins.

Robert's gaze follows the flow of water, which flows through the cobblestone streets and past the many buildings that were once inhabited and traded. When the city fell, the buildings on both sides of the street toppled together, forming eerie rudimentary arches.

Gates and cracked shop windows open to the street. There was silence except for the sound of dripping water. The smell of decay filled the air, and everyone's hearts were heavy. Although the temperature under the ground is warmer than that underground, the heavy atmosphere freezes the blood.

No one spoke. They tried to rinse the moss off their bodies and refill the water bladders. Stone and Calamon searched the entire area, but did not see the Dragonmen. After a few minutes of rest, everyone was back on the road.

Plop led them south, through the arches of the buildings. The street leads to a plaza where the water converges into a stream that continues westward.

"Follow the river. Plop pointed.

Robert frowned, and there was another sound on the sound of the river, the cacophony of a huge waterfall rumbling. But the flutter persevered, and the group had to walk along the brook in the square, sometimes forced to dip into knee-deep water. Until the end of the street, everyone saw the waterfall. The street hangs in the air. From here, the stream descended almost five hundred feet to the bottom of the cave. Underneath is the rest of the ruins of the Lone Dragon's Lair.

Through the light pouring down from the top of the cavern, they could see that the once glorious lair of the Lone Earth Dragon was now lying at the bottom of the cavern, with varying degrees of decay. Some of the buildings are still in good condition.

Some have collapsed beyond recognition, and the clammy mist created by many large and small waterfalls hangs over the city. Most of the streets have been turned into rivers that flow into the abyss of the north. Through the fog, the companions could see huge chains hundreds of feet to the north. They estimated that the elevator would have to walk at least a thousand feet back and forth.

"Where's the Pounce King?" Robert asked, looking at the lifeless city below.

"Plop says he lives over there," Rodrith pointed, "in those buildings west of the cave." ”

"Who's in those rebuilt buildings below us?" Robert asked.

"Boss. Puff said with a frown.

"How many bosses. ”

"One, one and another. "Plop and count until she runs out of all her fingers," two. "Two at most." ”

"That could mean two hundred, or two thousand, dragonmen. Stone muttered, "How are we going to meet the Fluttering King?"

"The bosses are still going to arrest us, how are we going to see him?"

Plop replied by pointing to a cauldron full of dragonmen. Robert's mind went blank, and Stone shrugged in disgust. Flutter sighed exaggeratedly and turned his head to look at Rodlis, clearly believing that the others were not qualified to understand. "The boss came up. Let's go down. She said.

Rodrith looked at the elevator in the fog, then he nodded understandingly, "The dragonmen probably think we can't find a way down, so most of the dragonmen are searching in the upper half. That way we're safer here. ”

"Okay. Stone said. "But what are we going to do? Most of us can't fly. ”

Plop open arms. "Vines!" Seeing the confused expressions on everyone's faces, the dwarf of the valley staggered to the waterfall and pointed below. Thick, green vines wrap around the cliff slope like giant snakes, and although most of the leaves have fallen off, the vines themselves look very sturdy, but unfortunately a little slippery.

Scarlet Moon's face was unusually pale, and she walked over to the edge of the cliff to take a look, and quickly retreated. A cobblestone street that would have to fall 500 feet to the bottom if she was not careful, the river breeze hugged her, hoping to comfort her.

"I've crawled worse. Calamon said triumphantly.

"I don't like that," said Hubble, "but it's better than sliding all the way down the pipe!" he grabbed the vine and began to slide inch by inch, "not bad." He shouted from above.

Wade then slid down, his athleticism so athletic that he couldn't help but praise him for his flutter.

The dwarf of the valley turned to look at Rodrith's long, flowing robes and frowned, and the mage smiled and comforted her. Standing on the edge of the cliff, he whispered softly, the crystal ball on the "Isfore" staff flashed, and Rodrith jumped off the cliff and disappeared into the mist. Plop screamed. Robert grabbed her, afraid that she would jump off with her.

"He'll be fine," the half-elf assured her, a little sad when he saw the innocent sadness on her face. "He's a mage. He said, "You know, magic. ”

Pounce obviously doesn't know what magic is. Because she looked at Robert suspiciously, then flung her backpack behind her, grabbed the vines, and began to jump down the slippery rocks with agility. When the others were about to follow up, they heard Scarlet Moon say intermittently, "I can't." ”

River Breeze grabbed her hand, "Don't worry. He said, "You hear the dwarves too, just don't look down." ”

Scarlet Moon shook her head, her jaw trembling, "There must be another way." She stubbornly said, "We can find it!"

"Any questions?" Robert asked, "We should be quick—"

"She's afraid of heights. River Breeze said.

Scarlet pushed him away, "How can you tell him!" she cried, her cheeks flushed with anger.

River Wind looked at her coldly. "Why not?" he said. "He is not your people. He can know that you are a normal person, and you have the weaknesses of ordinary people. I'm the only one you need to keep your image, Chief!"

Even if He Feng really stabbed her, it wouldn't hurt more than what he said just now. Scarlet Moon's lips instantly lost their blood, her eyes were hollow, and her face was like ashes.

"Please tie my crystal staff behind my back," she said to Robert.

"Scarlet Moon, he didn't mean to—" he began to argue.

"Do as I say!" she commanded simply. The blue eyes were full of anger.

Robert sighed and tied the crystal staff to Scarlet Moon's back with a piece of rope. Scarlet Moon didn't even look at the river breeze. After the rope was tied, she walked to the edge of the cliff, and Stone jumped out and stood in front of her.

"Allow me to walk in front of you," he said, "if you slip—"

"If I slide down, you'll fall with me, the only difference is that we'll die together. She said firmly. She bent over and clutched a piece of vine, jumping to the edge. Her sweaty hands slipped almost immediately.

Robert's heart raced to his throat, and Stone lunged at her, though he knew there was nothing to help. River Breeze stood, without the slightest expression on his face. Crimson Moon frantically clutched at the vines and leaves, clutching at them, unable to breathe or move. She closed her eyes, trying to banish the fear of falling. Stone climbed to her side.

"Leave me alone. Scarlet Moon gritted her teeth and said to him. She took a deep breath with a shudder, cast a vengeful look at River Wind, and began to descend down the vine.

Stone climbed beside her, keeping an eye on her at all times. Robert stood beside the Plainsman, trying to say something, but fearing more damage. Without saying a word, he walked towards the cliff. The river breeze followed quietly.

The half-elf climbed the entire way with ease, only to slip in the last few feet and fall into a puddle. He noticed that Rodrith was shivering from the cold, and his cough was getting worse in the damp place. Several valley dwarves stood beside him, looking at him in awe. Robert thought, wondering how long this spell would last?

Scarlet Moon shivered against the wall, and she deliberately ignored the river breeze that walked around her expressionlessly.

"Where are we?" Robert shouted in a voice that overshadowed the waterfall. The fog was so heavy that Robert could only see many pillars of fungus and moss, and nothing else.

"There's a big square over there. Puff nervously pointed to the West with his fat little finger. "Come, follow, go to the king of fluttering. ”
