Catherine and Vivien walked into the building in front of them with two nervous maids. The building has only one floor, and it looks like it has a lot of rooms from the outside, but when you actually walk in, you find that there is only a hall supported by columns, and in the middle of the hall is a huge shaft with a diameter of 30 meters and a ring wall made of bricks and stones, the shaft is up to 300 meters deep, and a crystal energy elevator is fixed at the mouth of the well with metal support rods and cables. Vivien tried, and it seemed that although the Hand of Shadows had abandoned this former headquarters, it had not completely given up on this entrance, and the elevator was still often maintained, so it could continue to be used. Take the elevator to the bottom of the shaft, find a door built on the bottom side, open the door with the key left by passion, and finally show the top building technology of the Goblin Empire in front of the girls.

Inside the door is a large space made of metal, with another downward shaft in the center. However, unlike the shaft above, which clearly belongs to the recent construction process of the Quaternary period, the inner wall of this shaft is made of silvery-white goblin metal, like the rest of the goblin creations, which has not been damaged even by 10,000 years. Immediately clinging to the inner wall is a four-meter-wide metal staircase that spirals downward along the inner wall to the end of the field of vision. Looking down against the guardrail of the staircase, there is a dark crater with no end in sight, and the darkness in the pit gives the illusion of a tumbling hell, like facing the endless abyss of hell.

"Are you ready?" Catherine said solemnly to the two maids with her hands on the door of the metal space, "Nervous?"

"Sort of. Even though Pansy and Mimosa grew up in the dark alley area, they had never faced such a strange world, and the perseverance that had been exercised in the struggle of their kind, but they were defeated in the face of the fear of the unknown, and the two maids were not stupid enough to try to forcibly hide their fears, and said with a slight trembling: "It's the first time to face this." It's a bit nervous indeed. ”

"Are you nervous that you still have to come along?" Vivien lowered her head, stuffed a large number of crystal bottles into the hidden pockets of the blue overalls she had put on, and said without raising her head, "It's too late to turn back"

"Thank you for your concern, young ladies. Pansy put her hands on her thighs and bowed: "But we must follow." ”

"Passion and indulgence threaten you?" Catherine asked, a question that was not uttered in front of them.

"Nope. There was no threat, but an inducement, a temptation that could not be refused. Pansy smiled bitterly and said, "This morning, the two adults promised that as long as we can help the two young ladies get out of here safely, they will introduce us outside to someone who can support us." Nor will we not dare to hire us for a job because we are from the city of innocence. This is something that every ordinary civilian in the City of Innocence cannot refuse. ”

"I don't want to stay here forever. Catherine sighed.

"Yes, if there is no other way to live, what normal person would want to live here?" Sister Mimosa is a little more extroverted than her sister, and she is also slightly more courageous than her sister, and she said with some complaints again: "Sometimes I even think that even if I starve to death and freeze to death outside, it is better than being killed quietly in the city of innocence without knowing when." It's a pity that I just think about it, and I don't have the courage to really go out and starve to death. But now I finally see an opportunity, maybe it will be dangerous, but the benefits that can be obtained without danger must be a trap. The more dangerous the benefit, the more real it is, how can we not seize this kind of opportunity?"

"They have already calculated that they will not refuse to talk to you. Catherine looked at the backpacks behind the two maids and said, "So I've already prepared a supply for you?"

"Yes, food and water for thirty days, as well as sleeping bags and some daily utensils. Pansy replied, "Our physical strength can only support us to carry this thing." ”

"Enough is enough. Catherine nodded, "Since you've made your own choice, then follow along." If you encounter danger, don't run around, try to squat next to me, this is the safest way to deal with it. In the end, I will definitely find a way to save you if there is danger, but anything can happen during the adventure. If I can't save ......"

"That's the luck that we didn't have to endure a stable life in the outside world. The sisters had no refuge in Catherine's remarks, as if they took it for granted: "We are grateful that you would save us as much as you can." ”

"Ready?" Catherine looked at Vivien one last time.

With a "snap", Vivien's staff smacked on the ground. A high-consumption crystal lamp on the ground suddenly lit up, illuminating the entire interior of the cylindrical building. Vivien frowned, glanced at Catherine, tilted her head to think about it, turned off the high-consumption crystal lamp again, and took out an ordinary crystal lamp she carried and lit it in her hand. The light of ordinary crystal lamps is significantly weaker than that of high-consumption varieties. It can only illuminate a range of about ten meters around everyone, but with the visual ability of a professional, although the light is dim beyond ten meters, it can still be seen clearly, only slightly blurred.

"Haha, Vivien, you're awesome. Catherine had a heartfelt joy: "Your behavior makes me want to cry with excitement." ”

"Anyway, they've already given us these supplies, and if you can save a little hedron, you can make a little more, you think. Vivien gave Catherine a blank look, ignoring Catherine, who was in a state of intoxication because she had saved a lot of lighting crystals, and handed the lamp in her hand to Pansy, and handed Mimosa the same lamp, but it was turned off: "You take these two lights, one for each person, Pansy, you are responsible for lighting us all the time." If one of you is separated, don't run around, lean against the wall to keep the lantern in your hand illuminated, and we will naturally follow the light to find you. Okay, big sister, everything is ready. ”

"Whew. Catherine gathered her mood, took a deep breath, and slowly but surely closed the door to the metal space. The light from the outside world was completely blocked by the door, and the crystal energy lantern inside the door became the only light source in the whole world: "Okay, the adventure begins, let's come on." ”

"Ding, ding, ding. The sound of tiny metal clashing echoed in the gloomy sewers, and the silence amplified the subtle sound countless times more clearly. The four of them took advantage of the light of the crystal lantern to descend the metal staircase step by step, and disappeared to the ground little by little. Looking up and down, the upward stairs seem to have no end, and the downward stairs seem to have no end, and the world seems to shrink infinitely at this moment, shrinking into the endless downward passage in front of you, and the four people who climb in it are the only lives in the world, moving forward endlessly in the dark space.

There was no wind, no dripping, only the slight footsteps of the three and the sound of Catherine's metal shin guards colliding with the metal staircase echoed in the silence of the world. The circular space constantly reflected the sound, creating frequent echoes above the four people, as if there were many invisible people following the four people, closely following them towards the abyss.

"I, I'm a little scared. Mimosa whispered in a trembling voice, but the small voice became as loud as thunder in the silence and emptiness, making her own legs go limp and nearly collapse.

"In such an environment, anyone will be a little timid, no matter how strong-willed a person is, it is nonsense to say that he is not nervous. Catherine sighed and comforted: "For adventurers who often go in and out of various ruins, there are many ways to relieve tension, and one of the most common is to speak, which can not only dispel the tension in the heart, but also let the companions know their dynamics and position at all times. Of course, the downside is that enemies can always know your dynamics and location, so disable them when there are enemies around. ”

"But I see you're calm. Mimosa tries to relieve tension by speaking: "Have you ever been through this before?"

"I've experienced it, and that time is much worse than now. Catherine smiled and recalled, "At least you two are carrying lamps now, and you are visually secure." We were in an environment where we could encounter a crisis at any time, and everyone had to be ready to fight, so it was impossible to move forward with a lantern, and we could only rely on a very weak light to observe the surroundings, so to speak, and even the vision was deprived. ”

"It's scary to think about. Pansy also joined the conversation: "You adventurers often have to deal with this situation?"

"Well, not really. Catherine replied, "There are many kinds of adventurers' jobs, and those that need to go deep underground are usually ruins search or exploration work, because ancient ruins are often buried deep underground. As for the rest of the work, it is easy not to drill into the ground, and we rarely drill into the ground before. However, I had experienced an underground adventure a few months ago, after all, this kind of artificial structure is a paradise compared to the naturally formed and harsh underground caverns. ”

"It's time to get to the bottom. Vivian, who had been silent, didn't actually fall into the usual contemplation, and suddenly looked up and said, "Although there may not be demonic beasts and cleaning puppets in this kind of vertical shaft, it is better to be vigilant. ”

"So fast?" Catherine looked down the metal guardrail, and sure enough, less than twenty meters below was a flat metal floor: "Didn't you say eight hundred and forty meters? Counting the three hundred meters of shaft at the beginning, it was just over four hundred meters, right?"

"This is a habit of goblin building, and I also read it from the book. Vivien replied, "The goblins build shafts, and if they are too deep, they tend to divide them into sections every hundred meters, with a short horizontal passage in between, staggering the shafts at both ends, trying not to make them in a straight line. The intention of this is unknown, but it is said to be related to the weight of the building, to prevent it from collapsing due to excessive weight.
