After a night of hard work, the dwarven craftsmen installed five alloy gates in the mines. After the craftsmen evacuated, the dwarven heavy warriors took over the mines, and the light armor was pierced by the monster's tail thorns, like paper skin.

The group followed a fat dog and came to the entrance of the cave, where the dwarf engineer had erected a depth marker, and the cave was more than 5,000 meters deep in the ground according to the Iron Furnace City Square. These dwarves can really dig, and they are desperate for ore! Why don't they dig up the lava and burn all their proud beards!

The mages cast the mage's eye, illumination, and scouting spells into the cavern. The cave was a bit big, not too deep, and to the limit of the Mage's Eye, no living creatures were found.

The dwarven technician began to use mechanical clamps to get out the monster corpses underneath in a staggering amount, and the dwarven laborers on one side threw the corpses into the minecart. There are dwarven miners waiting outside, and they will burn the corpses of these monsters as a precaution, and collect the metal from the monsters' bodies by the way.

The mages began to monitor the cave in shifts, and Evan came outside with the fat dog, looking at the speed, it would take at least a day or two.

Ivan likes the recliner lately, and he brings it with him wherever he goes, with black tea on the armrest, as if he is on vacation.

These monster corpses don't need fuel after they are ignited, they are good fuel, and the dwarven miners on one side have collected a lot of metal, all of which are piled up on hills, and some of the bones are also semi-alloyed. According to the dwarven miners, these things are treasures, and they can separate all kinds of metals by going through the furnace.

Evan thought to himself that what was dug up this time was a corpse, if it was dug up alive, you would dare to say that it was a treasure, and it would tear these miners apart in minutes!

Dwarven technicians are day and night, and after a day, the monster corpses near the entrance of the cave have been cleaned up, and the remaining dwarven laborers have gone down to clean up, and the mages monitor at any time, and once there is a change, the cave entrance will be directly sealed.

In another few days, the bottom was basically cleaned up, the dwarf laborers, and the technicians were all gone, and the mages were left.

Evan took the fat dog, the elven mage, Prince Ryan, and a team of dwarven heavy warriors to the bottom of the cavern. A large number of moon stones were placed, and the cave also revealed its true face, more than three hundred meters long, more than twenty meters high, and seventy or eighty meters wide. The bottom is sloping, there are passages down and upwards.

There is a priority, choose the upward passage first, not to mention that the passage is to the north, and the elf's hometown is in the north. The passage is very long, and it is also dug by monsters here, and there are scratches and bites on the walls of the passage. Walking along the steep slope, a magic door appeared in front of you, and the magic patterns on it still flashed brightly.

"It's an elven pattern! Infinitely sturdy, with handwriting on the door, I'll take a good look! ”

Old Alan read the elven text carefully before he sighed after a moment, leaving his place to the other elven mages.

"Ahead is the Moon Elf's cultivation room? In the secret room in the mountain, when they were cultivating, they noticed a strange movement in the ground, because the dark magic crystal was constantly devoured by these monsters, and the elements became less and less. ”

"They punched through a passage and connected to the passage where the monster was digging, and fought the monster. In addition to fire magic, only soul magic can kill monsters in large quantities. Later, the Moon Elf felt that the problem was serious, and only informed a few elders to completely block the entire cultivation ground, and the location of the magic gate was the last place where the monster excavated. ”

"They are the powerhouses of the Moon Elf clan, they didn't leave a way out, and in the end they went underground!"

"That's why the Moon Elf clan powerhouse has disappeared!"

After Old Alan finished speaking, he was a little tired, he had been exploring and studying for many years, and the disappearance of the Moon Elf powerhouse was like this, and the direction of his research for hundreds of years was completely wrong.

"Let's go down and have a look, since there's no road up there, don't destroy this magic door."

Evan thinks that the Moon Elf powerhouse has killed so many monsters, and it should have been killed underground, but tens of thousands of years have passed. Why didn't anyone return? All dead?

"Let's go, let's take a look, the moon elves should leave some clues!"

Old Allen stood up, as if his fighting spirit had been rekindled, and one person walked back first, and the rest of the people hurriedly followed, and the fat dog followed.

Entering the passage facing downward, there are traces of a magic door, which was later dismantled, and it should be a moon elf. After a long walk down, the passage began to twist and turn, and the magic pointing needle lost its effect. In general, the passage begins to become larger and smaller, and structures resembling an ant's nest begin to appear, and many branches appear in the passage, each with small holes.

The main passage has always been downhill, there are too many branches, there are obviously not enough manpower, and the preparation of the people who come down is also insufficient, and the small caves in the branch road are not easy to understand! The Moon Stone has also been depleted, and there is a risk of getting lost any further.

The expedition team is ready to return, the fat dog doesn't smell anything useful, the moon stone needs to be transported from the Iron Furnace City, and a lot of paint needs to be prepared for signs, and a dwarf cartographer needs to come over, this underground map is really impossible for ordinary people to draw.

Ivan calculated that he should rest for a day or two, so he took the fat dog to Ironforge City. I went to the dwarf barbecue shop first, and had a good meal with the fat dog. Then I went to the Apothecary Guild, where the two little dwarves were looking at the store, and Evan asked for a room and went to sleep. The dwarven inn is still exempt, and the earth-shattering snoring is worse than that of a fat dog, so I don't have to suffer that sin.

Early the next morning, Evan walked out of the room and came to the hall of the Apothecary Guild, where several pharmacists from Lova were there. When Lova saw Evan, he immediately told him that the torrential rain had not stopped since yesterday, and the mine tunnels on the other side of the cave were flooded, and the dwarves had no time to dig drainage ditches, so they had to block the mine entrance first.

This iron furnace city was built by hollowing out the mountain, and no sound was heard at all during the thunder and rain. Evan had to wait, and so did the dwarven elves. I heard Lova say that the moon stone may not be enough, and the mine is stepping up excavation. The paint ropes are ready, and the dwarven miners are ready to be on call.

Idle and bored, Evan began to instruct those dwarves in alchemy, and the fat dog also lay on his stomach and did not want to move.

Two days later, the torrential rain stopped, and when the sun pierced through the clouds, Evan and the elves reached the mine. The dwarven miners have cleaned up the stagnant water and are digging drainage ditches. When they reached the cave, a large number of dwarven miners and cartographers had already arrived. Leave some of the necessary moon stones, and the rest are collected.

The cartographers began the survey, the miners searched for the slip roads and made notes with paint, and the main passages were marked with green paint. The team searched all the way down to where they had returned the other day. The passage is getting deeper and deeper, and the temperature is getting hotter, so these monsters won't dig into the lava.

It's been two days in the ant-nest-like passage, and monster corpses are constantly being transported out of the branch road, and many burned eggs have been found. The dwarven miners were ordered to break even the eggs that had been burned.

In one of the halls at the bottom, the team found a huge monster corpse with a large belly like that of an ant queen. The appearance is indeed the same as that of ordinary monsters, but it is more than ten times larger.

Old Allen thinks that this is the mother body of all monsters, and it should be the same group as the demon ants. But how did this monster get in, it was much more than a passage. This thing can't be transported by the dwarves, so it can only be split on the spot, and the tip of the tail is simply a long knife.

There are four passages in the hall, one from the way, and three left, which can only be searched separately, one elf, one dwarf, and one fat dog and Evan.

The fat dog was in front of him, and Ivan threw the light in front of him as he walked. A small hall in front of it, with monster corpses and some broken eggs. Searching around and up and down, there was nothing, and Evan and the fat dog could only walk back.

When you meet the elves in the hall, you will encounter similar to the nursery.

Before they could wait, the dwarves screamed out, and several of them were burned. The dwarf's passage slopes downward, and there is a fault in front of it, and in front of the passage is a river of magma, and when the dwarf looks out, he is splashed with flowing lava.

The dwarf didn't see the situation on the other side clearly, it was too hot, so he had to let the mage check it. Evan and the elves came to the mouth of the passage, and there was no hole in the fault opposite, according to the direction of the passage, it should be under the magma river. These monsters are afraid of fire, and the dwarven crisis is resolved.

It is not clear whether the moon elves live or die, and in the end they can only wait for the dwarven cartographer to see where the passage goes. Prince Ryan ordered the passage to be blocked, and the dwarven miners began to get busy, and the group had no choice but to return. The dwarven miners actually blocked the passage with magma, which is really genius.

In the camp, the two parties are in a meeting to discuss the whereabouts of the vanishing Magic Gate. The elves think that the moon elves have used it to block the lava, which is not impossible. Evan agrees with this opinion, otherwise what would he do if he took the Might and Magic Gate. Maybe there was no fault tens of thousands of years ago, it's hard to say.

Three days later the cartographer came out, and the dwarves began a great work, filling all the useless slag and gravel underneath until it was full. The elven mage took the drawing and looked at it again and again, and the map showed that it had gone southwest, and the length of the drawing might have passed the mountains.

Old Alan took out the elven map, and to the west of the mountains was the Great Rift Valley.

"If the moon elf hadn't died back then, it should have come back! The Great Rift Valley is not that deep, not even a thousand meters, and the dwarven drawings show that it is more than 15,000 kilometers. I'm going to go back and look up the map west of it, the Great Library. ”

Old Alan and the elven mage left in a hurry, and Evan also felt a false alarm. Evan felt that the Moon Elf should not have died at that time, and he couldn't get out of it when he was blocked, or the passage behind him was far away, and he was somewhere else. They are all strong people above the Holy Magister, and there may be intermediate or high-level Holy Magisters. Ivan can't compare with them, just a newcomer to the Holy Magister.

Evan and the fat dog went home, this expedition was very boring, it took so many days and got nothing, it was better to rest at home, these damn dwarfs, I don't know what to dig up one day!
