Chapter 166: Disappointment
The dwarf led him into a burrow. The opening of the main cave entrance is oblique upward, and after walking more than ten meters, it turns inclined downward, An Fei estimates that this should be built to prevent flash floods or rainwater backflow, and maybe there are other intentions, dwarves and goblins are active underground all year round, and they are much stronger than him An Fei in terms of construction.
Although he has been here more than a dozen times, each time it will make An Fei feel a little uncomfortable, first of all, the dwarf's waterproof process is still not at home, and it is impossible to make a large number of waterproof building materials, so the cave is very wet. The second is that there is no modern kind of wire, and there is no condition to place astronomical ever-bright lamps in all the tunnels, the most widely used is a phosphor lamp that uses magic potions, exuding a dim pale green light, walking in the tunnels, the figures of people are eerie, and the faces are also very scary, this kind of scene is suitable for shooting ghost movies, and it is not very comfortable to use to provide life lighting.
To An Fei's delight, after walking more than a hundred meters, the tunnel seemed to be spacious, and countless dwarves were busy behind him, and the dull sound of excavation came and went, and there were dwarves and goblins expanding the cave at the entrance of the cave, and the two construction sites would not take too long to converge. An Fei's order was that it must be completed by early tomorrow morning, and judging from the current progress, it would almost be completed in the middle of the night, and the dwarf's work efficiency and ability to dig tunnels did surprise him a little.
After walking more than a hundred meters, I came to a hall, the so-called hall did not have the slightest taste of grandeur, it looked like a huge beehive, and the walls on both sides were full of holes, where all the houses in the town of Moramachi had an exit, or several houses shared an exit. When he came here before, An Fei didn't have any other feelings, but now thinking back to what Chris said, An Fei has a deeper understanding! Such a hole should not be slowly expanded with the increase of aborigines, and when the first tunnel was excavated, the designer or mastermind should have had a huge plan.
If the only way to protect oneself is to protect oneself, the way of escape should be as chaotic as possible, so that chaos can confuse the enemy's sight and make oneself safer! If the tunnel is so chaotic that you can confuse your own people, for the enemy, this place will become a place of death, and it will be easy to get in and difficult to get out. All the exits are centralized, which shows the designer's intention! Why centralize? Because it is easy to manage, the designer not only wants to protect the inhabitants here, but also manages the inhabitants here!
Walking through the hall and further down, a huge stone door in front of me blocked the way, and there were many shining points of light scattered on the stone door, I don't know if it was reflected by those magic phosphorus lamps, or the light itself, anyway, the light was so green that it seeped through. An Fei heard from Ferrer that this is an extremely strong stone gate, weighing more than 10,000 catties, even if the great magician uses seismology here regardless of his own safety, the entire tunnel will collapse, and the stone gate will not fall.
The dwarf who led the way walked to the left side of the stone gate and pulled a chain, and An Fei faintly heard a bell from above, and then the stone gate rose at an extremely slow speed. The dwarf swaggered through, An Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly, squatting on the ground and lowering his head to drill through, there is no other way, the tunnel expansion here will hit a hurdle, otherwise it will fundamentally destroy the stone gate, the only way is to dig a deep trench in the ground, and then separate the horse and the carriage, transport it over and then combine it.
Passing through the stone gate, within two hundred meters ahead, there are hundreds of holes on both sides, some are inclined upward, some are inclined downward, some have very large openings, some have very small openings, the most difficult multiple-choice questions are here, only two of the hundreds of holes are true, the rest are all false roads, and in individual false roads, there are several hidden holes leading to the true way, and the sandwich roads are very narrow, only for one person to drill, even the dwarves have to drill! That's where the aborigines come to harass the enemy, they can sneak out from here to attack, and then retreat, to trick the enemy into taking the fake as real, even if they can find the mecca, it's useless, a person who crawls hard in the mezzanine, even if he is a high-level swordsman, can't exert his power, there are small mezzanine and various mechanisms up and down the mecca, and the dwarves can easily kill opponents who are much stronger than themselves!
At that time, An Fei was also helpless about this, and finally had to use a despicable method, very kindly released a dozen dwarf children, told them that they could go home, and then released one after a while, and let the children go alone, but he let Chris leave magic marks on each dwarf child, and he himself left incense powder on several children. What does a lonely child need most? Of course, to find a companion, any companion! Without adult instruction, a child can easily be fooled. In this way, An Fei found two points
The remaining aborigines had to go from dungeon to dungeon, deprived of survival, and finally chose to surrender.
Walking into a separate road on the side, the tunnel seemed more humid and darker, and there were forks on both sides from time to time, and after walking hundreds of meters, dazzling magic lanterns appeared on both sides, which was a mark set by Chris, and when he saw the lantern, the road after that was real.
A small dungeon appeared in front of An Fei's eyes, of course, the dungeon cannot have a broad sense of the sky, even if it is an arch made of rocks, it is a useless project, the so-called city has only two main roads, intersecting each other in a cross shape, on both sides are very regular doors, inside is naturally the room, at the intersection, there is a small square, in the center of the square lies a stone slab, below is the city's reserve. To show that this was a city, the dwarves and goblins had built the top walls of the tunnels very high, but only for them, and for Amphi, just enough to walk upright.
"Didn't your Katulu tell you to build the top wall higher?" asked Anfei softly, he was very kind to the dwarves, and if the other party was not deliberately angry, his identity and majesty were not reflected by reprimands and roars.
"Nope. A dwarf hurriedly replied.
"Isn't it inconvenient for werewolves to walk here?"
"Anfei, there is not much difference between a werewolf walking on two legs and walking on four legs, such a height is enough for them. Suzanne said with a smile.
"Why do all the werewolves I've seen before walk upright?"
"This ...... I don't know. ”
"I'll guess. An Fei smiled and blinked: "Maybe...... It is because of their self-esteem, and they want to walk upright to show the fundamental difference between themselves and wild wolves. ”
Suzanne snorted, in fact, Anfei didn't mean to insult the werewolf, just a mischievous joke, but in the eyes of the dwarves, it was not like that. However, after Ampai took full control of Moramachi Town, there was no trace of contempt for the dwarves' words and deeds, in fact, the living conditions of the dwarves and goblins were much better than before, and after work, they could drink their favorite wine, eat their favorite chicken, and receive a high salary, which they had never dared to imagine before, so after listening to Amphi's ridicule, the dwarves not only did not show a look of disgust, but also laughed like cheers.
"My lord, Mistress Chris, right down here!" a dwarf trotted over and lifted the stone slab in the square.
"Chris is going on like this?" An Fei couldn't help frowning, he had seen the power of carbon dioxide poisoning, carbon monoxide poisoning also had some symptoms or could smell a bad smell, carbon dioxide was even more terrifying, the carbon dioxide content in the air was ten percent, which would cause people to be unconscious, and soon lead to death, if the carbon dioxide in the air reached or exceeded twenty percent, it would cause paralysis and the heart stopped beating in a few seconds.
"yes. ”
"Chris!!" Anfei screamed as he stood at the entrance of the cave.
"You're here too!" came Chris's faint cry below.
An Fei saw a thin rope at the entrance of the cave swaying slightly, and he understood that although the dwarves did not know the exact proportion of air as well as he did, they also knew the importance of ventilation, and there must be vents underneath.
An Fei jumped into the cave and looked left and right, the warehouse was a mess, and the bags of grain that had been stacked on the right side had been squeezed on the other side in a disorderly manner, revealing a dark and faint hole, and there was still light flickering underneath. Shante smiled and sat on the sack and looked at An Fei, there were two werewolves with big ties under his feet, it seemed that the werewolves were quite conscious, and they were constantly struggling.
"There's no trouble subduing them, is it?"
"No, these two guys are stupid, let them come in and talk about something and they followed, Chris and I released a lightning bolt and took them down on the spot. Shante laughed.
"That's good. Anfei nodded.
"Anfei, I might disappoint you. Chris floated up from the hole below, he didn't bother to climb the ladder, and directly released the levitation technique, and the ever-bright lamp was left below, like a ghost in the dim green light: "I have carefully identified it for a long time, and there is nothing good." ”
"Wouldn't it?" An Fei strode to the entrance of the cave and looked down: "How can these werewolves regard treasures as good things?"
"What do you expect, like last time?" Chris, chuckling, "You'll see for yourself." ”
