"Eruson, Sui, Rantoya, are you okay?" Diredava began to search for her companions as soon as she touched the ground. Fortunately, they were not very far apart from each other, and they received a response as soon as they spoke.

"Well...fortunately, I just broke two ribs."

Sue touched his waist and answered with pain. He was beside him, Eruson and Lantoya, and it seemed that nothing was wrong, but his magic was overdrawn and he had no spirit to answer.

The most severely slandered by everyone was the mercenary leader Barun. He was directly hit by the guards, but he was still lying on the ground and moaning. He didn't know where he was injured. Rantoya, who had some magical power, immediately used a healing technique to treat everyone.

“Where is this?”

Only after a little recovery of energy did people start to look at their environment.

“It’s dark everywhere and nothing can be seen.”

"Yes, there is also an unpleasant odor. I don't know where it came from." The mercenary who woke up from the coma found that there was a pungent and strange smell in this small basement.

In order to maintain the little magic left, Lantoya and Eruson could no longer use magic after simply treating everyone, and it was difficult to issue a simple lighting technique.

Sue pulled out the light of the elf and used its light to check the situation around him. This famous sword that he could not be pulled out just now finally came in handy.

"Ah, someone!!"

With the dizzy yellow sword light gradually becoming brighter, Rantoya realized that there was a person sitting beside her, and she was so scared that she immediately screamed.

The mercenaries quickly showed off their weapons. Since their fear of the wizards was still there, any disturbances would only make them even more nervous.

Although the light was dim and could not see the other person's face clearly, it was vaguely distinguishable that he was a human male, who looked very sloppy, like a refugee or beggar on a slump street. The foul smell that had previously smelled was emitted from him.

After realizing this, everyone covered their noses and left.

He slowly woke up from the pain, and Barun, who was lying on the ground, also found that they were not the only ones in the dark place. Just opposite him were two vague figures.

"laugh!"

Diredava lit up the torch he carried with him, and the bright flames dispelled the darkness in the basement.

Under the reflection of the torches, everyone finally saw clearly what kind of place they were - the bottom of a chimney-like oval stone chamber, where everyone slid from the entrance of Shangheihu Lake.

There are no gaps in Guanghua's walls, and the tall and smooth stone walls cannot be climbed at all. Even if they can float with the help of spells, they may not be able to reach the teleportation channel that has been closed by Pedine. If they cannot find a way out, all of them will be trapped in this prison.

Listen carefully, you can vaguely distinguish the intermittent voices outside the stone chamber.

It seems that there should be other stone chambers besides the room where they are, just like a circular prison divided into several pieces, with thick and deep stone walls between them.

In this homemade prison of the necromancer, there were three people except for the newly lost Eruson and others.

A beggar man whom he met first. In the corner opposite him, a dwarf sat with a thick red beard, wearing a brown short shirt and leather pants that were the same as the bark, and holding a sharp and shiny axe in his hand that was inconsistent with his height.

A girl in black was squatting not far from the red-bearded dwarf. She was wearing a green cloak unique to the forest wanderer, wearing a silver Level 3 Adventurer badge on her chest, and a delicate dagger hanging around her waist.

Although it is not a treasure like the Elf Light, it is also valuable. The elves' words that are looming with exquisite patterns are all high-end products no matter how you look at it. If you get it at the auction house, you will be worth at least one thousand gold coins.

Under the wide green cloak was a young and delicate face, with dark eyes, and looking at Eruson and others with little energy.

The Dark Clan?

People were all surprised. Although there were many dark tribes on the Eastern Continent, the dark Truks with human appearance were very rare.

"Hi."

The beggar man greeted everyone first. He was also dressed in black and his body exuded a disgusting stench, as if he had been in a cave of the monster for several years.

If it weren't for the special hooks for climbing and the necessary master keys for stealing, it would be difficult for people to see if his profession was actually a thief.

I really didn't expect that in a peaceful era when it was known as the "Three Kings' rule the world", there were such a thief who was not good at appearance, and it was cleaner than him to just pull a refugee out. I really doubt how to steal from such a silly smell on his body?

"I will introduce it first. I am the thief Stowe. Although I was the earliest visitor to this cell, I have to ask them about the specific situation here."

Stowe pointed his hand at the dwarf and girl opposite him.

"Is this thesis..." As a candidate priest in the Temple of the Sun, Eruson was accommodating multiple languages ​​when studying theology. He spoke common language while walking. Even the Truks could understand this language that was popular in all four continents.

Although he was a dark clan, Eruson thought she was easier to get close to than the dwarf. But he didn't get the answer he wanted. The other party just opened his big bright eyes. Just as he was wondering if he had any rudeness, the dwarf beside him spoke out.

"This is Krien's underground maze." The dwarf replied in a rough voice. "I am Ralph, the youngest son of the crypt dwarf craftsman master. He was arrested five days ago, and this little girl was silenced and could not speak. As for what you are going to ask, she had to help her untie the silenced spell to know."

Looking at the girl who nodded repeatedly, Eruson's heart had several questions.

Although the gods of the Truks divided into different groups according to their beliefs and were born with magic. Although the black-eyed girl in front of her had a delicate face, she still looked more ordinary than the Truks, who have always been famous for their outstanding appearance. How could the Truks, who are proficient in magic, be easily silenced? There must be something strange about this.

"Help her unravel the spell."

Despite doubts about the identity of the Truk girl, Eruson still asked Lantoya to unravel the silent spell placed by the undead wizard.

"Under the protection of the goddess of loving love, the curse in this person is lifted and the original health is restored."

Lantoya unraveled the silent spell, the girl looked back with gratitude; "My name is Moya, I was captured by a wizard two days ago. As for where we are now... it should be deep in the underground of the Black Forest, the entrance to the maze of the ancient night elves ruins."

This girl who made Eruson feel weird was Moya, who had just escaped from Grigg.

With the amnesty of the new emperor ascended the throne, he lie in the prison for 30 years and joined forces with other retaliatory criminals to escape.

In order to avoid the prison pursuers, she did not follow Medaro and others to act as a member of the Holy Church of Light. Instead, she entered the deep dark area from the mining path excavated by the dwarves, intending to use the crypt dwarves' path to the southern port city - Byron.

However, he did not expect to encounter an adult earth dragon in the tunnel. The little thief Luqi, who was walking with him, almost died. Although he defeated the earth dragon with the spell of "soul exchange" and saved the already dying Luqi, he could only survive as the earth dragon from then on.

The young guy didn't notice the seriousness of the matter, but he thought that the strong body of the Earth Dragon was very good, at least he would not be bullied by others, and he was much better than his original body.

In the cave where the earth dragon lives, Moya was surprised to find the items left by an ancient mage. After the magic power was restored, it took her two days to untie the five spells on the box.

From the images maintained by the magic, it was learned that the masters of those things were Nathus Eber Cria, the highest priest of the Moon and the Night God, a thousand years ago. At that time, the night elves had not yet broken with the Truks today, and they served the twin gods of Moon and Night, one of the Dark Lord Gods.

Before the temple split, Nathus led the Abyss Knights to fight with the demons underground. The old and weak high priest was unable to return to the temple. The Truks and the Night Elf finally quarreled with the symbiotic custom that had lasted for thousands of years in order to which side to serve as the new high priest.

By chance, Moya fell from the dark area to underground ruins while escaping from a large number of giant poisonous sword spiders. She and Lu Qi were separated as early as the beginning of being chased by the sword spiders.

The timid Luqi wasted the strong body of the earth dragon. When he saw the sword spider with no claws pounced over, he ran back, completely ignoring Moya's anger behind him.

Discovering Eruson's suspicious eyes, Moya knew that he must have known his identity as the Dark Clan, all because of her black pupils.

Moya did not correct this. Compared to the identity of a special-level repeat offender, even the Truks, who rarely appear in the Eastern Continent, are more acceptable.

After hearing Moya's words, everyone in the cell fell into a dead silence, and finally Eruson spoke, and then untied the silence like a spell.

"I didn't expect there was such a place underground in the Black Forest?" After reading all the collections of the Holy Empire, the flame priest never knew that there was such a mysterious ruin among the many ancient ruins in Anesia.

"Maybe it's too old and it's gradually abandoned."

It was a bit hard to believe that she knew that she was saying something, and Moya didn't care. She just learned it from the scroll left by the high priest Nathus.

Relics like this can be seen everywhere in Anesia, mostly caused by ancient wars, and were obscured in history due to wars and eventually turned into desolate ruins.

Among the items left by the high priest is a book made of monster skins, which clearly record many similar ancient relics, which are precious materials that have not been recorded in history.

"Maybe there are a lot of precious treasures hidden here, otherwise they would not have been built in such a hidden place." Thors, who was originally leaning against the wall, suddenly interjected. After hearing what others said so much, the only thing he was most interested in was the fact that there might be treasures hidden underground.

"No, it may be an ancient seal." Eruson held the opposite view on this. No one would have such troublesome ways to create a maze underground in the Black Forest to hide treasures. This maze is mostly used to prevent intruders. In the period of the great darkness and magic where monsters are rampant, such seals can be seen everywhere.

Although Eruson's starting point is correct, he deviates a little bit from the track.

This ruin is indeed an ancient seal, but it was set by the night elves themselves.

Hidden in the underground maze is the Moon God's Temple, one of the two major ancient temples, the Dark Moon Tower, which sank to the ground after the war between the gods.

The Dead Master Pedine did not know the truth of the maze, he just vaguely sensed a huge energy lurking underground.

"The question is what we do. Now is not the time to discuss ruins and treasures." The dwarf Ralph stood up and said in fear. "According to the legend of our ancestors, this was an ancient battlefield, sealing the terrifying monsters of the Great Dark Age, so it's better to find a way to leave as soon as possible."

"Big Darkness?!"

Ralph's words once again caused panic among the crowd, which was a farther away era than the Magician. Humans were far less than the land they are today. For humans at that time, ancient dragons and elves were the masters of the earthly realm.

Take it for granted that for ordinary people, the Great Dark Period four thousand years ago, was just a legendary mythological story for ordinary people.

"no way."

Moya shook her head. Although she wanted to leave, she could not leave due to the seal of the maze entrance. She could not leave with teleportation magic or hiking. Unless she could find a device to control anti-magic, everyone would be trapped underground for the rest of their lives.

"The underground maze is equipped with a spell and anti-magic device. All creatures have no entry and no exit. Unless the mechanism located somewhere in the maze is unlocked, no one can leave. Otherwise, why would the wizard let others enter the maze? He would get the treasure hidden in the seal as soon as he could, and he would not need to imprison us in an underground prison."

"Treasure?" Toss's eyes, which were as turbid as dead fish, suddenly widened after hearing the word. This was the exact affirmation that he had heard the underground maze had a treasure.

"It should be some kind of treasure. Even the wizard himself didn't know much about the specifics. He stayed in this ghost place for three hundred years without any results, so he kept catching adventurers and putting them in the maze, trying to find ways to untie the seal."

"Then...how do you know the inside story?" Logically speaking, since you know so much inside story, why are you still arrested and put into the prison hall? No matter how you think about it, it is suspicious. Eruson even had the ridiculous idea of ​​"Moya is a spy who invades the prisoner."

"I live in a nearby town and came here by accident. He didn't kill me to make up the numbers." How could Moya tell her identity? She also heard it in Grigg Prison, and she had long forgotten the specific content.

The cell once again returned to a dead silent silence, and even the voices around it stopped. Apparently, the people in other cells also heard their conversations.

"Then...what the hell should we do?"

This time the question was the thief Toss. He was now more concerned about his life and knew that even the terrifying wizard could not untie the seal, and the treasure suddenly became far away.

"The wizard will open the door to the maze every once in a while, allowing a certain number of adventurers to go down and explore. We can only leave the cell at that time." Moya said the only way she knew. This is indeed the only way out for everyone, and it is also a way out. If they cannot untie the seal, they will die.

"That means that only by unlocking the secrets in the maze can you leave..." Eruson said to himself, and began to search in his mind about the methods he learned about opening the maze.

"No one knows what is in the maze. Don't worry about the legendary demon first. We can't even win the wizard. Even if we are lucky enough to untie the seal, we can't escape his clutches. We will definitely be killed in the end..."

"It's better to have hope than not. If you don't try it, how can you know that it won't succeed. And what's waiting for us there may not be death."

Looking at the frustrated mercenaries coldly, Moya looked down on them so easily that they gave up the opportunity to survive. She would never sit still and wait for death.

She has not yet taken revenge and cannot die in the dark underground like this.
