He sighed: "Moreover, I have no right to agree to this matter, it is the elders of the city who guard the portal, if you really need it...... Okay then, I'll negotiate with the three Jinbao elders who are in charge of this matter, please wait a moment. ”

He turned and pushed open the door on the other side of the room, ran over, and carefully closed the door, leaving only the three silent.

Edward sighed softly.

If it is a portal made by using natural spatial gaps, then theoretically it can indeed lead to anywhere, even the other half of the Big 6, it is not unpredictable. It is undoubtedly easier for a deity to know this qiē.

The queen of the spider is obviously for another purpose.

"Well, ah, guys, your luck is really good. After about an hourglass, the dwarf named Wind Whisper came out of the room and saluted the three of them: "Later today, the city will send another patrol to find out what is going on on that side of the portal, so you can go along, but I don't recommend that, you better wait a little longer and wait until you are sure that there is no danger over there, and then go through the portal." ”

"No need. If I can follow the warriors of your city, even if it is only for a while, I think it will be safe. Edward said, but the dwarf shook his head fiercely: "I'm sorry, guest, this patrol is not our people, but ...... An envoy sent by a group of elves. ”

——

The inn introduced by Feng Yin adheres to the usual style of the dwarf, and there is a long and twisting name called what sister pot slave or something, of course, it is the dwarf language, and Edward doesn't bother to ask what it translates to.

Regardless, his cousin, Xiong Ma, seemed to be a good innkeeper. The warm fire in the cave, the soft beds, and a few side dishes made of the meat of the beasts were enough to soothe the traveler, and the only thing that made people criticize was the way to collect the room money for less than a day.

In fact, the fundamental reason is that after only about five hourglasses, the dwarf wind ran to the hotel again, telling Sù Edward and the three of them that the portal team was ready and about to leave.

This is undoubtedly in line with the habits of life in the dark regions, for some races such as Drow. It only takes four hourglasses to get enough sleep, but for humans, such a short rest is actually easy to get tired, so when Edward and his party came to the small square of the portal, all the people who were going to come out this time had already been gathered.

It is a wide space carved out at the end of the passage. Edward noticed a bright magical aura on three sides of the wall. Sketch out dozens of huge magic symbols that are uncertain in light and dark. And in the center of the square. There were already two dozen people standing.

With a slight gaze, Edward had already seen a few familiar figures in it—the dark green broad cloak stood out in this dark area that admired deep colors such as purple and gray, and it was the elves who had met in the passage yesterday.

It turns out that the so-called 'envoys of the elves' refer to them?

The Psychic Warlock slowed down quietly—though he didn't know if it was related to the previous group, but they were also Elise's followers. And with them, no matter what angle you think about, you are likely to become an enemy.

Around these people were a dozen Drow warriors. Dressed in chain mail, the weapons were all longbows and two thin swords, the gray armor carried the blue moon pattern engraved with Elise, and several people had wooden or metal emblems on their chests, and on the other side of the square, there were scattered groups of people.

In addition to a few elderly dwarfs standing at the door, wearing robes, the rest are a dozen drows and ** humans, as well as two or three dwarves with iron gray complexions, these people are divided into three distinct groups, and most of the equipment on their bodies is also varied, from leather armor to full body armor, each of them carries at least two or more weapons, but from the indifferent look and sharp eyes of Yiqidu, it is obvious that they are veterans who are used to walking underground.

And the moment Feng Yin walked into the square with the three of them, more than forty eyes of these people gathered on them at the same time- Although he had already put on the heavy gray robes that the underground travelers liked to cover his body temperature and figure, the fluctuations of the magic net that vaguely surrounded the three spellcasters were still impossible to hide from these experienced adventurers who were active in the dark regions, and several human adventurers exchanged a few glances with each other, and there was a little awe in their eyes, and one of them seemed to want to come up and talk, but was pulled by his companion.

The elves, however, didn't seem to recognize the three who had just arrived—in fact, they didn't pay the slightest attention to them.

"If you're ready, get out right away. ”

Glancing at the dwarf who was following the three of them, a dwarf standing in the center of the square said briefly: "Get out of this portal, it is also a small square, and then you have to go through a tunnel to reach a larger space, where there are three passages dug out, however, I suggest that you should not act rashly after you go out, because it is likely that some troublesome things are waiting for you over there." ”

In a brief introduction, the three gnomes had already recited intricate incantations, and a moment later, the wall facing the passage was shiny, and the stone wall seemed to dissolve, revealing a coherent space door with silver and dark blue rippling behind it. The entire passage was illuminated by the light, and the huge energy seemed to fill all the space in an instant, making everyone feel the itch of the blade scraping against the skin.

Everyone looked at each other, and the three iron-skinned dwarves took the lead, and Yuguan approached the shaky door of space.

"Strange, this thing looks a little familiar......" As he stepped into the door, Edward heard Miss Half-Elf suddenly speak.

And indeed, the moment the silver light and shadow of the astral plane distorted space, an inexplicable perception also became stronger in Edward's heart.

When the dazzling light dimmed again in the distorted perception, the surrounding space also spread out like fireflies. Along the traces of the ruined buildings, a marvelous outline is drawn, and the boulders that stand like eternal eternals drag their narrow shadows in the light, as if the fangs of a beast were closing around them—until the luster fades, and finally settles into darkness.

Edward looked up keenly, his gaze falling into the deep darkness in the distance.

A faint sound coming from nowhere. Far away like an echo that is disappearing in the mountains, but close to the ear. It is as if it has departed from the natural laws of sound propagation in the air, and directly seeps into the human soul with an almost irresistible will.

"Signs will eventually emerge, echo signs, and someone will travel through thousands of planes to come here and hold the silver calamity...... The ominous will return to the earth...... In the past, in the future. ...... now Everywhere, everywhere. It has ruined miè. and was raised again, so and for ever. He holds the keys to multiple worlds, opening the door to the other...... It is the only one, he is not the only one, only power. Fang Wei controls ......"

The telemancer spoke softly, reciting the long text, the ancient law of silence and frustration, it passed through the constraints of time and space. Slowly flowing in this quiet darkness.

The space in the dark is a small square, weathered rocks, and fine sand and dust are piled up around it, but when you inhale deeply, the nose does not seem to have the mildew smell that has been abandoned for a long time, and the slight air flow is dry and cool, obviously, there is a relatively large space nearby.

However, his eyes turned slightly, but Edward keenly took in his state of mind.

The cave, which is about 50 feet wide, does not seem to be a natural occurrence, and the surface of the four walls is slightly smooth, but it is pitted, which should be the product of artificially carved quite a long time ago, but what is striking is that the surrounding walls and ground are pitted, like signs of running water, but it is not so peaceful, it seems to be ......

"Attention, there's something here,......" he began, but as if in harmony with it, the prompt sounded before it was swallowed up by a terrible scream!

In the midst of the screams, a human warrior flew upwards violently!

Edward's gaze then rose, and he saw a black shadow coiling in the uneven corner of the ceiling! like a large piece of soft cotton wool clinging to the cave wall, the dark brown body shimmered with a faint halo, and the whip-like things extended from it, intertwined one after the other, and at that moment it was like a huge black net from the sky, firmly binding the struggling human figure!

The human skeleton was strangled into a series of gurgling sounds like popping beans, and in the blink of an eye, blood gushed out of the mouth and nose of the strong adventurer, like a water bag that had been squeezed open!

The Psychic Mancer sighed softly.

With the flick of a finger, a flash of fire illuminated the darkness and scorched the monstrous creature that was entrenched in the zenith! The strange thing suddenly let out a leaky roar, and with a twist and flick of the black tentacles, it dropped the dying human being, curled up with a snap, fell from the roof of the shed to the ground, and then rolled into the darkness without stopping!

The next moment, a glow had lit up, and with Lisa's wave of her hand, the large colloidal-like soft mud suddenly contracted, and then exploded with a bang, raining down on the surroundings!

"Nasty, what is this! It's disgusting!"

The half-elf let out a dissatisfied scream, and the plaster-like splash suddenly stopped in front of her, as if it had hit an invisible barrier and slid down in the air, but even if it fell to the ground, it was still constantly squirming, and in the subtle sound of snorting, a pungent and sour white smoke rose from the ground, making the unprepared Miss Half-elf cover her nose suddenly!

"Don't get too far away from me, and don't waste your strength. Edward gave her a small warning in dissatisfaction, then turned to a sluggish dwarven warrior beside him, "Is this just an ordinary road around here?"

"Huh?"

The dwarf, who was a little dizzy by the sudden light of the fire, was stunned, he stared at the wreckage of the monsters twisting and smoking on the ground, and swallowed his saliva for a long time, and said angrily in response to the urn sound: "This portal is rarely used, and I also know that it leads to the lower level of the dark region, because it is said that almost no one can come back after entering, and the only bit of information is already seventy." No, it was brought back by the people who walked this road eighty years ago, and they said that it led to two cities of Drow. ”

Reflexively replied, the dwarf shook his head and looked puzzled, as if he was a little surprised that he opened his mouth to respond to this completely unknown human, but after a moment's hesitation, he still added: "Well, for the rest of the time, we just led them to the fork in the road in front, oh." That's right...... I remember a couple of guys saying that the intersection to the left seemed to lead to a larger space, which had collapsed, but there were signs of carving. ”

"Ancient city...... Edward smiled.

The light twisted and shifted in his eyes. Sketch out the shadows of the cascading underpasses, and then. Edward noticed the large space—and he narrowed his eyes. Because in the field of vision, where it is not far away, you can only see a gray white, although it has a rough shape, but you can't see what is in it at all.

Won the lottery?

"We have warned you. There can be something very troublesome here. Be extra careful. ”

The voice came from the portal behind him, and the cultists of Elistra walked out, and the drow who had just spoken glanced at the corpse underground, and spoke indifferently. In exchange for the angry glares of several humans.

That's why the gnome named Wind Yin Gnome Jian Yì Edward didn't follow this team - those Elistrian believers finally passed through the portal at this time, and obviously used these fellow travelers as pathfinder pawns.

"The place where these things gather is probably where the changes have taken place, right? However, I have a feeling that it may be blocked. So, what are we going to do?", he began.

These people don't mean much to him, but since the other party's purpose is also here, then, the use is mutual.

The Psychic Warlock's advice made one of the elves raise its head.

"Be quiet, there may be danger lurking not far from here. ”

He spoke, his voice still sounding, but more crisp, like the crash of ice crystals...... The honorific with it was even more devoid of the slightest respect: "Moreover, I don't care if you are a spellcaster or not, but as a short-lived human, you don't seem qualified to propose any decent advice to an elf." If you think you've achieved your goal, then you might as well get out of here. ”

"Oh, goodbye then. Or, it's better not to see each other again. The corners of Edward's mouth curled, and he stepped forward.

The legendary elves, unless they live among humans, are very difficult to get along with, to say that it is called arrogant temperament, and if it is difficult to hear, it is extreme arrogance, nationalism, they already have their own civilization tens of thousands of years ago, and their cultural system also strongly respects the status of their own race, known as their god Ke Ruilon, is the first creature to appear after the creation of the world, and they are made by Ke Ruilon, the first intelligent life on the big 6, plus the long life span can almost reach about a thousand years old, second only to the dragon。

So, the general saying is that elves look down on any creature other than elves. Of course, this also includes humans, and after losing the Great 6 War and having to retreat to the other side of the Central Mountains, humans have become their second only annoying object to the orcs.

Unlike the trembling creatures around him, the monster just now didn't interest him much—it was slow, it didn't have much strength, and its body was very fragile, so as long as he was careful of the acid and toxins secreted, he didn't have to worry at all.

The main problem was that the darkness that seemed to spread like a thick fog around him was never an obstacle for Edward - in his eyes, whether it was magic or natural invisibility or darkness, it didn't make any difference on a sunny summer afternoon.

As soon as he took three steps, the sound of wooden friction sounded along with a shout: "Stop!"

Click!

A crisp sound mixed with a muffled grunt echoed far away in the silence, and the guy who had just raised the longbow in his hand towards the three of them took a step back, and couldn't help but scream - the bowstring in his hand broke at that moment, and the longbow that had lost its restraint suddenly rebounded and flew out of his hand, and the broken bowstring pulled a slight crack in the cloak on his body!

However, at this time, several other people in the team, Drow or Elf, also surrounded them, each holding down the troops on their waists, and formed a semi-circular defense line with fierce eyes.

"So, what's the matter?"

"What a foolish fellow, if you are allowed to act indiscriminately, and let you break into the direction where they gather, it will only cause them to show us and cause us more danger!

In fact, what this guy said was not wrong, after all, he didn't understand what kind of power the person he was facing was, and Edward might not be interested in showing him how powerful he really was...... (To be continued......)
