Chapter five hundred and sixty fifth special dark area
Ye Chen's incarnation still maintained the attire of a warlock, but in the eyes of everyone, he was thought to be a mage. A fat man in a gorgeous robe in the caravan wiped the sweat from his forehead and trotted over under the protection of his men. He lowered his voice and said urgently:
"Your Majesty the Mage, I am willing to pay you a thousand gold coins to repel these damn bandits."
"Hire me?"
Ye Chen glanced at him, smiled slightly, and uttered with his lips:
"Less!"
The caravan boss was not angry at all after hearing this, but happily held out two fat white fingers:
"Two thousand gold coins!"
Ye Chen was quite surprised that the fat man was so generous, but he didn't know the currency value of this plane when he first came here, so he couldn't raise the price casually. Besides, he was just making some small money for temporary use, so he nodded and turned to look at the battlefield.
Stretch your right hand forward and hold it down.
The next second, dozens of finger-thick gray rays flew out from his palm, accurately hitting the tauren, gray dwarves, and goblins.
The body of the target hit by the gray ray turns into gray stone at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into gray rock statues.
"Petrifying ray?"
The changes on the battlefield shocked everyone. Even the mercenary group guarding the caravan stopped and looked at Ye Chen in surprise.
Many people have heard of the petrification ray spell, but they have never seen so many shot out at once. This power may have reached the ninth-level level.
But for the caravan, this is a good thing. No matter what kind of magic it is, it is still helping itself.
But this is not a good thing for the attacking party, especially when the mysterious mage reaches out again, and no less than forty or fifty petrification rays fly out, and a large group of tauren or gray dwarves who have a certain resistance to petrification
All turned into stone statues, all the bandits were instantly frightened, especially the timid goblins who were the first to drop their weapons and escape, triggering a large-scale rout.
There was no need for Ye Chen to take action for the third time. All the robbers fled completely, leaving only corpses and hundreds of stone statues on the ground.
The fat boss of the caravan kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and led his men to take out an exquisite brocade box from a gorgeous carriage and hand it to Ye Chen, saying:
"Dear Master, this is your reward!"
There were some beautiful magic gems in the box. Although he didn't know the value of this plane, he estimated that it would be more than two thousand gold coins.
The box disappeared with a flick of his hand, making the fat caravan boss envious. Ye Chen looked around and said casually:
"Do you mind if I lend you the caravan for a break?"
The fat boss was overjoyed, nodded repeatedly and didn't mind, and hurriedly asked the clerk to get out a beast cart. He was very aware of the role a senior mage could play when the caravan was attacked. After simply cleaning up, the caravan continued on its way.
,
Ye Chen was lying on the soft animal skin mat in the animal cart, with his head on a high pillow, drinking a bottle of unknown green wine brought by the fat boss, and looking at the dim scenery outside the window.
This is the Underdark, a very special independent plane.
Yes, it was the dark place in Ye Chen's imagination, but it was not in his imagination that he came to the main material plane.
To put it simply, in this multiverse, the Underdark is an independent special giant plane. The entire plane is filled with earth soil, and the place where the creatures in the plane live is in the cave space in the earth.
The special thing is not that the plane is filled with earth and soil. This is not special. There are billions of planes in the multiverse, and there are many strange planes. The special thing about the Underdark plane is that this plane is not
There is more than one, or rather, this plane is made up of countless overlapping Underdark planes.
The Underdark that spreads in the main material plane of the multiverse is just one of the countless overlapping Underdark planes.
To put it more complicatedly, the Underdark plane is equivalent to an abyss that can connect many planes in the entire multiverse. Strictly speaking, the Underdark plane is a plane similar to an abyss. From the Underdark plane, you can connect to
Many planes, including the Material Plane.
Of course, the dark plane Ye Chen is currently in is not connected to the main material plane, but to a super large plane called Talon, and the large caravan he is currently in is from a plane called Talon.
There is a merchant family named Enders in the city of Natta.
There is an underground crack near Nata City, which is a natural space rift between the Talon plane and a certain Underdark Realm plane. Through this crack, many merchants in Nata City often organize caravans to carry food and other commodities to the Underdark Realm and the Underdark Realm.
Racial transactions in the region, exchanging products unique to the Underdark region for sale on the ground, earning a large amount of gold coins.
Through generations of adventurous explorations by the Enders family, he now has a certain understanding of the Dark Territory. Ye Chen took the initiative to ask, and Barry Enders, the fat owner of the caravan, took the initiative to tell him this in order to make friends with him, a senior mage.
.
No one knows exactly how many levels there are in the Underdark. They only know that the first level being explored is the largest and is home to a large number of gray dwarf cities, goblin tribes, tauren tribes, kobolds, lizardmen and other fantasy races. In most areas,
Monsters and poisonous insects have been wiped out by all major races, and the safety is no worse than on the ground. This is why the main trading objects of human caravans are on this first floor.
The second layer of the continent in the Underdark is the most barren, with no mineral deposits. It is not known whether it is common to all the Underdark. The main residents of the second layer are cavemen, which is very similar to what Ye Chen knows.
The cavemen are the weakest race in the Underdark. They are creatures of the orderly and good camp. They are born with a weak constitution. They have no inheritance of combat skills, no writing, let alone magic. It can be said that there is almost no
No matter how powerful they are, they are the largest race in the second level of the Underdark. They are naturally industrious and constantly sow underground crops.
But every six months when the underground crops mature, the races living on the first level and the drow elves living on the third level of the Underdark will form an army and rush to the second level to burn, kill and plunder, destroying what the cavemen have worked hard for for half a year.
All the proceeds were taken away.
Fortunately, there are a lot of cavemen. There are hundreds of millions of cavemen in the entire continent. In addition, the reproductive power of cavemen is amazing. Three years after birth, a caveman can become an adult and reproduce the next generation. It is because of this amazing reproduction.
Their ability prevented them from being exterminated in repeated killings and plunders.
Needless to say, the third level is the world of drow. This kind of ferocious and powerful dark elves do not produce, but only plunder with force. Except for a few gray dwarves, the entire third level continent only has various powerful warcraft.
