Chapter 266: Tower of Babel
As soon as the joint meeting ended, the Master crystal on Modo's chest began to vibrate, Modo looked at the past, and suddenly a piece of information came to mind: "The deputy commander of the project to dredge the river, the fox man Lommel Grierson, together with thousands of young nobles of the Orc Empire, arrived at Steel Ridge. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
The little dwarf calculated the time, two months have passed since the royal court meeting, and the cheap uncle should arrive at the Iron Ridge even if he inks again, but he doesn't know what happened to the thousands of young nobles, but it is estimated that it is difficult to explain clearly in the words of Master Crystal, so Mo Duo replied: "Treat well, I will come back." ”
Then Modo once again told the heads of the various departments of the management committee one by one, and then rode the fat dragon and began to return to the surface world.
As he walked through the harsh Gangfeng layer high in the underground sky, Mo Duo remembered that the only way to travel to and from the underworld was to ride the black dragon through the Gangfeng layer back to the surface, and even the Hipppies with the ability to fly could not return to the surface on their own.
The first is that the harpy people can't fly to such a high altitude at all, and they don't know where they will be blown into the Gangfeng layer with their thin bodies.
Then the problem comes, it is foreseeable that in the future, all these things in the underground world are definitely the biggest hole cards hidden in his hand, in case there is an emergency and it is necessary to transfer troops from the underground world on a large scale to steel ridge for reinforcements, it is impossible to let the black dragons be the ferrymen!
In this case, these dozens of black dragons will be exhausted, and they will not be able to transport many troops in a day, after all, not every black dragon is called Fat Dragon Xiaohei, it seems that there is another way.
The word 'Tower of Babel' in his memory was once again remembered by Lord Modo, this magical building that is said to be able to connect the two worlds more than a thousand years ago, and the cat-people and other races that were scattered to the underground in the orc rout back then, so many of them came to the underground world through the 'Tower of Babel', what kind of magical building should it be.
"I don't know if there is any possibility that the Tower of Babel will be repaired. While Mo Duo raised this question, he also thought in his heart that anyway, whether it was going to sea to find the remnants of the Elven Empire, or asking the eldest brother to start the Doma River waterway project immediately, although it was more urgent, it was still not a big problem to wait for another day or two.
So he returned to the Buffalo Valley, found the surprised old Garfield and began to ask him about the Tower of Babel, and then the old Garfield Man introduced an unexpected figure to the little dwarf, saying that he was the most familiar person in the underground world with the specific situation of the Tower of Babel, the legendary powerhouse of the Crypt Demon Clan.
"It is said that this magical tower of Babel has existed since the beginning of the underworld, and that we Crypt Demons are the traditional guardians of the tower, and our entire race lives around this tower, living on a fee for those who pass through it. The legendary Crypt Demon Grey led Modo forward, and at the same time diligently introduced everything about the Tower of Babel.
With the little dwarf behind him, as well as the heads of several departments such as finance, construction, and manpower of the Underground World Management Committee, Modo planned to start the restoration work as soon as the situation was suitable.
Gray's mouth has not stopped from the beginning, and it is obvious that the honor of the guardian of the Tower of Babel has made the Crypt Demon Clan feel extremely honored: "Legend has it that this Tower of Babel was built by the ancient gods, and then the glorious mission of guarding it was given to our Crypt Demon Clan, but those evil humans eventually destroyed it. ”
This is the first time to see this legendary Tower of Babel that can connect the surface world above 10,000 meters, the diameter of the thick tower is at least 100 meters away, and the steps that can be used for more than a dozen people to travel at the same time are half suspended in the tower, giving people the feeling that a super large stone pillar is inlaid with a circle of steps outside it.
The tower was broken in the upper half, so that most of the more than 6,000 meters were left in place, pointing straight into the sky, and Modo asked everyone casually: "Haven't you thought about rebuilding this tower of Babel? Although the amount of work is relatively amazing, it is only a matter of time before the power of the entire underground world is gathered. ”
"Lord Modo, in fact, before you brought cement manufacturing technology to the Underworld, our Underworld simply couldn't build a slightly taller building, let alone a height of tens of thousands of meters. Old Garfield, now the secretary general of the management committee, returned with a wry smile.
Then he continued: "There is another headache, according to those black dragons who passed through the Gangfeng layer, the exit to the surface world has been blocked by those humans, you must know that it is a passage dozens of miles long, and it will still take countless time and energy to reopen it even if there is no human obstruction. ”
"And any of you remember where the exit to the surface world is at the end of Babel?" asked Modo.
"It's said to be a small principality in the human world, what is it called?" the crypt demon Gray struggled to recall, before he came up with a place name that was a little familiar to the little dwarf: "By the way, that place is called the Duchy of Acre." ”
Mo Duo thought for a while before he remembered that this Duchy of Acre, which was on the edge of the Roland Empire, was not the small principality where the vampire family who escaped from the abyss and hell lurked, and the unlucky Archmage Latusius of the fire system was located?
Originally, Modo also planned that since these vampires were honest, they didn't think about opening the teleportation channel to let in the demon army of the Burning Legion, and they could still live there.
However, since it is related to the main exit of the important underground world, it seems that he is going to find time to go to the Duchy of Acre and clean up these vampires, anyway, the little dwarf has no shadow in his heart to pit these guys from the abyss and hell to death.
When Modo personally came to the foot of this magnificent Babel Tower, he walked around twice before he really felt the greatness of this magical building, whether it was the tower body or those steps, it was completely carved out of a whole piece of unknown stone material.
This unknown material is actively hard, and with the strength of Modo's current hand, it cannot be easily crushed, and Modo can't help but be amazed, knowing that even if the hard granite is placed on his hand, a slight pinch will be pinched and crushed.
A doubt arose in Modo's heart: "Could it be that this is really created by the ancient gods?"
