Most of the creatures inhabiting the tunnels are goblins driven away by the dwarves of Zelandia, and after losing their original home, their living space has been drastically reduced, and they have to feed on anything they can fill their stomachs, including fluorescent moss.

As soon as everyone entered the tunnels of Gerthorne, the light dimmed, and only a few fluorescent stones emitted a faint light, reflecting the quietly flowing stench-smelling ditch beside the tunnel, on which all kinds of scavenging insects could not stop flying, and occasionally the traces of the Cavins rat could be seen, and whenever this time, the little rat lying on Calvin's head would squeak excitedly.

But this kind of behavior often scares the timid Cavins rats away, and perhaps they are timid by nature and cannot understand why they can live so well with humans, and the cruel living environment makes them dare not risk their lives at all.

This foul-smelling ditch is caused by the household waste produced by the nearly 120,000 inhabitants of the city of Gerthorn day and night, but in some ways it does feed many creatures that live in this tunnel.

Only a quarter of these populations are drow elves, and the rest are slaves of various humanoids, and in addition to delicious mushrooms, lizard mounts, magic scrolls, wine, and water, the city's main list of goods traded is a variety of poisons and alchemical potions, including the energy potions that Correll is notorious for, but often banned.

The early versions of this energy potion were actually a product of the Netharel period, and were essentially developed by the Arcanists to improve their Guardian combat power, namely:

In stimulating the intrinsic potential of living beings, it can obtain a lot of strength, physique and sensory improvement in a short period of time, but it also has a lot of side effects, that is, it will produce some hallucinations according to different physique during consumption, and after the effect of the drug, it will produce a long refractory period of weakness.

I'm afraid that the arcanist who developed this potion back then would not have imagined that thousands of years later, this potion would not only reappear in Corel, but also be completely transformed by the drow elves in the underground dark regions.

In order to pursue the ultimate pleasure and forget the illusion of troubles, these shameless Bichi actually added all kinds of slightly toxic mushroom materials to the formula, just to increase the side effects of this medicine... No... Perhaps the side effects of the potion itself are what the Drow Elves are after...

For a period of time, this energy potion was flooded throughout the city of Gerthorne, and there were even drow elves who were in charge of guarding the gates of the city who took potions during the day.

Xu is medicine is a bit on the top, these two drugged Drow actually grabbed an ogre slave who was in a hurry to enter the city, and everyone looked at it in full view, but that day, the registration procedures for entering the city at the north gate of Gershorne City directly became everyone lined up to pay tribute to the two selfless Drow, and consciously stuffed the silver coins as entry tax into the 'pockets' of the two Drow, and then entered the city lightly as in a dream...

It is said that according to the investigation after the fact, the North Gate entry tax that day was not only the same, but even two more gold coins...

But this egregious dereliction of duty, which tarnished the image of the city of Gershorn, finally aroused the wrath of the Council of the Master.

The two elves who had pierced the ugly phenomenon were turned into spider drows on the spot when they were sacrificed directly to Rose by blood, and were taken away by the family to which they belonged.

After that, the energy potion was banned for a time, but the next day it was revealed that the mother of a certain family, Zhuoer, openly treated guests with energy potions in the banquet guest party, and it became a dead letter...

And in addition, the energy potion has always been the most important source of foreign exchange for trade in Gerthorne City, even the master mothers are reluctant to cut off their arms, so a group of master mothers who have taken the potion that night sat down and discussed, it is impossible to ban it, or reduce the psychedelic effect of the potion a little, and then list the high-concentration energy potion as a high-value product and tax it heavily.

This genius decree is much more real and effective, and the poor people who have no money can only buy some potions with less side effects on a regular basis, which is not much different from drinking a little wine to some extent.

For this reason, there are numerous alchemy workshops in the city of Gelthorne, including a large number of them in the Xicheng district, and these magazines for making potions are dumped into the sewers and run down the stinking ditch.

It is because the creatures in the pit that have been gouged through this stinky ditch for a long time have been somewhat poisoned by the poison, and they are generally somewhat mutated, looking at the crowd of people, there is a strange and dangerous light in their eyes, but because the team of Levi and his party is too large, in the end, the residual instinct of avoiding harm in his head overwhelms the hunger.

Perhaps this not-so-good smell in the air triggered some of Tiger's hateful memories, and he said to everyone: " You don't know how disgusting the drow we met when we first settled in Zeelandia, they have almost lost their last sanity after staying with the goblins for a long time, and have become beasts with only all kinds of desires, and those goblins who are not productive can have any food, and usually feed them these foul-smelling swills mixed with fluorescent moss, and those sows will do anything for the illusion of forgetting reality for a short time!

"Even after we established Zelandia, Drow's life was much better, but we found out that they would collect swill to refine potions privately, and the Drow who was found was hammered into an idiot by Copperbeard on the spot!"

"Hahaha! These Zhuo Bi Chi are really not a thing sometimes, they are more ruthless than anyone else against their kind, but fortunately Uncle Ben is strong, otherwise he would have been squeezed dry by those Zhuo Er back then. Among them, the red-robed Faman Fei She laughed the loudest, and there was still a faint pride in the past for a while.

Maybe this kind of thing is just a bit of a heavy spice topic for Levi and his party, but for Jiaer, who is also a drow elf, it is a little heavy, and it is the first time he has joined their topic:

"We don't know the dangers of energy potions, but the internal invasion of our drow elves is too serious, and on the surface the city of Gerthorne is peaceful and peaceful, but we don't know how many conspiracies and calculations are hidden inside.

"I don't know if you have heard of it, although the number of people in our city has expanded to more than 30,000, it has developed for nearly 3,000 years, and it still only maintains about 1,000 nobles, divided into 76 recognized families, and the rest are only civilian warriors. In Gerthorne, about every 10 years, there is a family plan to eliminate another family in order to increase their ranking. The matriarchs of the top eight families formed the council of the city of Gerthorn.

"And the vacated places are the only hope for the Drow civilian warriors to sacrifice their lives on the battlefield to fight for their positions. We, Drow, grew up in such a cruel environment.

"We have no family affection, and even in the mother's womb we have to eliminate our own siblings in order to get more nutrients, and the death of each compatriot will make the mother feel happy.

"We don't have love, because women have control over everything, there are almost no agreements between males and females, and it is the females who decide who their lover is and how long the relationship lasts.

"We have no friendship, because all the Drow who believe in friendship end up with their corpses thrown into that stinking ditch and become a carnival of carrioners.

"There are always all kinds of open and secret battles between our Drow families. Priestesses also used intrigue and assassination to gain higher positions. The families are also waiting for an opportunity to destroy their opponents.

"In our drow elves, all battles are governed by an iron law: "If it can't be proven, it never happened." ”

Therefore, the elimination of the rival family is often to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, leaving no nobleman behind. Otherwise, if the survivors complain to the ruling council, the family that launched the attack will be wiped out. On the other hand, even if everyone knows who did it, no one will come out to blame, and they will appreciate the courage and wisdom of the other party.

"In such cruelty and ruthlessness, in such a precarious situation every day, and at any time someone may be killed by plots, Trembling and living every day, things like energy medicine will be nourished by development and become the best spiritual food for those who lose, because they think that even if they are plotted at that moment because of taking medicine, at least at that moment, they have been happy in their dreams, and in that dream, they have also returned to the surface world full of sunny forests in books, and they have a family that loves them, a partner who has vowed to them for life, a group of close friends who can be entrusted to their fate, and a person who can no longer worry about plotting from behind, and can pursue their dreams in a bright light... Bright World..."

As Jia'er's empty words and the breathless weight of the topic unfolded, all the voices that had first heard the inside story of Drow faded away.

"The evil of the drow elves is not innate. Levi muttered something he had heard from nowhere, but added in his heart, "But the hatred that has been forged will not be forgotten by its own sorrow." ”

After that, there were a lot fewer words from the crowd, and even the old fritters like Fischer did not openly laugh at Drow in front of Jia'er.

As the crowd progressed, the creatures around them became fewer and fewer, until there was complete silence...

"Holtz, let the escort team be on guard, something is not quite right!"

Levi, who was walking in the forefront, suddenly stopped and raised his hand, frowning and looking at the dark surroundings, Yinlong's natural blindness of 60 feet and his dark vision of 120 feet allowed him to clearly see all the details around him even in the dim tunnel.

But it was because of this that he always felt that something was not right in this place, when the sewers of the city of Gerthorne had become so quiet.

The group continued to move forward slowly and vigilantly.

Crunch.

Levi felt as if he had stepped on some tough filament under his feet, and before he could look down, the sound of the wind breaking in the darkness made him instinctively take a big step back, and at the same time shouted loudly:

"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!!"

Received from Levi's first warning, everyone scattered the moment they heard the words.

There was a loud bang.

I saw that the place where Levi and Jia'er were standing had been smashed into a terrifying pit by two pitch-black objects as huge as city walls!
