Chapter 66: A Wonderful World

Leo hurriedly leaned over to investigate, and sure enough, he noticed something unusual.

On the dark elf's dark skin, there is a tattoo that is also a black color, which is indeed difficult to find if you don't look closely.

And what worried him the most was that the shape of the tattoo turned out to be a crescent moon.

"What is this?" Barton also found the tattoo, but he didn't recognize it.

Several others shook their heads as well.

Leo had a solemn face: "The black crescent moon is the emblem of the Dark Moon Church. โ€

"Darkmoon Church, the church that instigated the Dark Elves to attack Ravinton?" Barton had heard of the gossip as well.

"Yes, actually, I entered the Underground World this time to find out about the Darkmoon Church. Leo nodded, and then asked, "Captain, which is the closest dark elf city-state to here?"

Barton didn't understand why Leo asked, but he replied anyway, "It seems to be Morsoblay City, a very strong underground fortress, and there is also a high temple of the Spider Queen. What, did you find anything?"

"No, I'm just guessing that the city may have been taken over by the Darkmoon Church. โ€

Leo suddenly found that the situation was becoming more and more unoptimistic. The Dark Moon Church has not only infiltrated the interior of the Dark Elves, but has also penetrated so deeply.

ยค"Is it ...... That woman has replaced Rose as the new Dark Elf Ruler?It seems that a believer must be captured in order to find out the true situation. โ€

However, things didn't go as Leo had predicted.

Seven days passed quickly, and I don't know if it was because Barton chose a good route, or something else, the convoy had continued to move hundreds of kilometers south in the cave, only to encounter some underground beasts and a few bear people.

Although this humanoid creature with a bear head is extremely powerful, its intelligence is not even comparable to that of goblins, so it was easily dealt with by the Daisy Squad. Leo, on the other hand, couldn't get any information out of their mouths.

After eating some bread and drinking some hot soup, the group had a hasty rest and set out on the road again.

In this pitch black environment, the human will will become fragile, and coupled with the moist and turbid air, it is easier to bring the spirit to the brink of collapse.

Fortunately, most of these people are veterans of long-term adventures, and they can basically stand up. Leo is even more curious about the environment.

It's hard to imagine that there could be such a vast world beneath the surface. Along the way, countless tunnels are like the most complex spider webs, densely spread throughout the underground world. Almost every time you walk for a while. There will be a few forks in the road, and if you are not the most experienced, it will probably not take long to completely lose your way, and even if Patton had been here in the early years, he still took the wrong way several times.

At the end of some tunnels, there are huge crypts, and in some places, traces of intelligent beings can be faintly seen.

It's different from what Leo imagined, in an underground world where there is no sunlight. There is still a vibrant ecosystem, and all kinds of life are thriving.

The most common creatures here are mosses and mushrooms, which are the main food sources for many higher organisms.

Leo also found spiders, scorpions, rats, and certain underground streams in the crypt. There are also a variety of fish, but most of them have no eyes.

In addition, he saw a lizard that was large in size but had a very docile temperament. According to Barton, almost all of the underworld's intelligent races will domesticate this lizard. It can be used as a mount and pack beast, and it can also be used as food.

In order to improve their lives, several people tried to catch one, but the meat was fishy and hard, and everyone vomited without eating two bites.

These strange discoveries made Leo feel that even if he didn't get the clues he wanted, the trip would still be very exciting, even if he couldn't figure out how this miraculous underground world came to be.

But some people clearly don't think so.

As she walked, Jenny asked with a pained expression, "Brother Barton, how long is it left?" Didn't you say that you could get there in seven days?"

Patton did not answer immediately, but approached the torch and carefully checked the rudimentary map in his hand, and then replied: "Soon, only thirteen more forks will be needed to reach the first dwarven settlement." At our pace, that's three or four hours. โ€

"It's going to be three or four hours!" cried out Jenny in discontent. She hadn't been in any danger for a few days, and it had made her less cautious.

"Shhhhhhhh

Leo, who was in the middle of the group, also noticed something was wrong and hurriedly extinguished the torches on the carriage.

In an instant, the environment became pitch black, and in the distance, there was a faint sound of shouting and shouting, which instantly made everyone nervous. Seeing that the trip is 98% complete, I won't encounter a dark elf patrol in this place.

After a while, Bailey, who was at the forefront as a sentry, turned back, and without waiting for others to ask, he whispered: "Captain, there is a fight ahead! Several dwarves are besieged by spirit sucking monsters!"

"Damn, how could you come across something like this!" Barton frowned, "Let's talk about it, what should I do?"

Muratun said without thinking: "Of course you have to go over, how should you be able to deal with a few spirit sucking monsters!"

Patton didn't speak, instead turned his gaze to Edman.

The grimace said, "Save!"

Barton nodded, and looked at Leo again, after these ten days of getting along, Leo has fully integrated into the team, and the calmness, wisdom and strength he showed have also been recognized by everyone.

Leo thought for a moment and said, "This is a great opportunity, as long as we save these dwarves, we will definitely be able to enter their city." If we don't save us, if the other dwarves find out, I'm afraid they will think of us as enemies. โ€

This analysis is exactly what Barton thought. The strong man immediately no longer hesitated: "Okay, then save it! Everyone take a light step and form a battle formation! After arriving at the battlefield, listen to my instructions and act!"

After a while, several people lurked in the corner of a cave and quickly saw the situation ahead.

It was a dozen dwarves, half of them wearing steel helmets and iron pickaxes, apparently miners, and the other half were armed with hatchets and shields, presumably warriors, but at this moment three of them had fallen to the ground, and their lives were unknown.

Opposite them were seven octopus-like monsters floating in the air, constantly flicking their tentacles and attacking the dwarves with their natural psychic spells. (To be continued......)
