Chapter 70: The Chosen Warrior
Santos is one of the dungeons of Elam, which is connected to other dungeons by various tunnels and merchants. Travelers, as well as the legions of the Dark Race, travel to and from dungeons through these tunnels, large and small. In the underground of the Hill Continent, there are many tunnels and huge rock caverns, forming a unique environment and order underground.
The goddess of pain, who became a god through a rebellion three thousand years ago, has those drow elves who have been driven underground by other elves, and as her own believers, she listens to her will and provides her with a surrogate in the mortal world. The Goddess of Pain gave power and power to those chosen warriors who had been chosen before she was even born.
Let them have the right to acquire the Drow City at will, and the original city owner must not have any objections. Otherwise, they will be cursed by the Goddess of Pain and lose the ability to draw power from the darkness. And if the cruel underground loses its power, then the city is on the verge of destruction, if not immediately.
Not to mention, as the Chosen Warriors of the Goddess of Pain, they are agile and powerful, not only proficient in all kinds of dark magic, but also gain the ability to become invisible. Even without the cover of darkness, they can hide in a bright place where you can't spot them. In the dark underworld, they are almost invincible.
After learning that something had happened in the dungeon, Mo Yan simply packed his luggage and left Thunder Cliff alone, entering the underground through a nearby passage. Because he didn't have the vision to see in the dark, the journey in the past few days made Mo Yan very irritable, and there was not even anyone to talk to on the road. Claudet was left behind by him as a close attendant, and his strength against the Chosen Warrior was not enough.
Originally, Jones wanted to follow Mo Yan, but Mo Yan refused this request. The current situation in Elam requires a strong presence in Thunder Cliff, and stationed in Thunder Cliff to prevent what will happen to Thunder Cliff when Elam's large-scale war begins before he returns. And Jones, as a powerful dragon, is undoubtedly the right person.
After a period of hurrying, Mo Yan came to the gate of Santos. After seeing Mo Yan, the guards at the city gate did not have any obstruction and were even very respectful. Regarding this minotaur who actually controls Santos, although everyone didn't say it on the surface, they all knew it.
The large-scale textile mills that sprung up in the city, as well as the cave assassin farms around the city, which had expanded dozens of times, were all the work of the bull head in front of him. And because of the establishment of stable trade with the ground, Santos has now also developed a lot. Not only did there be a lot more merchants, but so did the number of craftsmen and the population.
Most of the surrounding dungeons also learned about Santos's wealth, but they didn't know why Santos suddenly became rich. Just knowing that Santos has adopted a new way of weaving, the production of spider silk cloth has increased sharply, so that even if Santos's spider silk cloth is sold cheaply, the profit can be guaranteed.
Now, while Santos is expanding spider breeding, he is also building a plantation according to Mo Yan's instructions, planting something unique to the underground. Mo Yan learned from Ruiz that some of the materials underground are very valuable things on land, and many alchemists are in demand. Some underground plants also have many uses in potions.
After entering Santos, Mo Yan went directly to Ash's family residence. Mo Yan still needs some understanding of that God-Chosen Warrior, after all, he is not an ordinary reckless minotaur, and only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles.
"What's the situation now?" Mo Yan sat on the main seat in the living room, looked at Ash and Jill who rushed back, and said, "Why did that Chosen Warrior come here and ask you to hand over Santos. Is it possible to do that in the city of Drow? That would be too lawless. ”
"I'm sorry to let you come in person. Ash said apologetically, "In the system of the Drow elves, the power of the chosen warriors is the greatest, and even the priests of the temple need to obey them. And the goddess gave the chosen warriors the right to choose the city, and if they wanted to get that city, then the city had to surrender control. ”
"So, why did that Chosen Warrior appear here?" Mo Yan thought for a moment after listening to Ash's words and said, "Santos should be in the city of Drow, not a very wealthy city. Even if it shows some potential now, it's just potential. ”
"The Chosen Warrior is just passing by. Ash replied, "She followed the instructions of the goddess and came here to investigate something. So I need to stay here for a while, and this is the only place in the neighborhood that is still rich, so I chose this place as a temporary place to stay. And she has a great interest in the new textile factories here. I want to get the factory drawings and bring some craftsmen back. ”
"How could these be given to her. Mo Yan smiled and said: "If other cities will have new textile methods, then the spider silk cloth market will be chaotic." Now, do you have anything to tell me about that Chosen Warrior, what exactly does she do, and how strong is she?"
Under the explanations of Ash and Jill, Mo Yan had a general understanding of the power of the Goddess of Pain's Chosen Warrior. It didn't seem like a big deal to him, it was just that he could be invisible and magical. If she is invisible, Mo Yan has a lot of ways to crack it, unless that Chosen Warrior doesn't breathe, then the sound of her breathing will leak out of her position.
Mo Yan's hearing is very sensitive, and he can even hear the sound of ants walking if he wants to. And the magic Mo Yan said that there was no need to worry at all, even if the dragon's magic didn't hurt him much, then what could these underground dark magic care about.
Mo Yan's only concern was the god represented behind the Divine Chosen Warrior. As a person from an atheist place, Mo Yan said that he is really not interested in God, is the god of this world a fantasy thing, or is it really a real creature?
If it was a real creature, would they be able to use their powerful power to directly intervene in the present world? Or could they only act through a substitute such as the Chosen Warrior? If it was the former, Mo Yan felt that he did not have the strength to fight against these legendary creatures.
And if it's the latter, then Mo Yan doesn't care so much. After all, the agents of these gods are only relatively strong, and it is not difficult to defeat them. As long as he didn't provoke all the gods and let their agents form a group to brush the Thunder Cliff, then Mo Yan had nothing to worry about at all.
And in Mo Yan's understanding, the goddess of pain is not treated by other gods. Even the god hated by the goddess of the forest, if it wasn't for that rebellion three thousand years ago, the elves who believed in the goddess of the forest would not have fallen. From the hegemony on the continent, he can only shrink into the forests in the middle of the continent, and is invaded by other races from time to time.
But Mo Yan did not immediately plan to use force, but planned to meet with this Chosen Warrior first and tell her whose city this belonged to. Although she can live here temporarily, it is impossible for her to hand over the skills and craftsmen. The income in the city is also her own, and she can give some but not much.
If you can resolve the matter peacefully, of course, it is the best choice. And if he can't, then Mo Yan will let this Chosen Warrior know what it is like to have a Minotaur fist and a big stick (hehe).
Under the leadership of Ash, Mo Yan came to the castle in the center of the city. Almost all of them are castles under Ash's subordinates, and the road is unimpeded for Mo Yan. After coming to the residence of the Chosen Warrior, Mo Yan met the Chosen Warrior who came to Santos.
"Why is there a minotaur following you?" The Chosen Warrior in the room, looking at Mo Yan brought in by Ash, asked a little strangely, "There is no minotaur underground, did you go to the ground to catch it?"
"Actually, I'm the host here. Mo Yan smiled at the Chosen Warrior and said, "And yours occupy my city and ask me to hand over new textile technology, then I can only come to the dungeon from the ground to talk to you." I understand the purpose of your visit, and Santos can keep you in residence during your investigation and provide you with the necessary assistance. ”
"Hahaha...... Are you the master of Santos? Oh my God...... Ha ha...... It's simply the funniest joke I've ever heard. Hearing Mo Yan's words, the Chosen Warrior laughed and said, "Ash...... Senator Ash, where did you get this Elven-speaking minotaur? Was it your mage's transformation? His joke was funny!
Well...... Why don't you speak, Councilor Ash? Don't tell me that what this minotaur said is true. That's the end of the joke, if you don't want to hand over control of the city, it's not impossible, this desolate place really has nothing to look out for, just hand over the textile technology. ”
"Don't think about textile technology. Mo Yan sighed a little helplessly and said, "And what I just said is the truth, and there is no lie." If possible, you can contact the Goddess of Pain now. I think she should know what is going on here, after all, there is her temple here, right?"
