"Master Adier, you are here." A hoarse voice suddenly sounded in a quiet place.
On a plain, a middle-aged elf wearing a gray sacrificial robe looked a little shaken. He looked at Adil walking in the distance and couldn't help but walk forward.
"Child, how is the situation here?"
Looking at the middle-aged elf in front of him, Adil nodded, and then asked casually.
The middle-aged elf in front of him is one of the several chief priests sent by Curaldo to assist Adil this time. His strength is considered very good even in the transformation stage of the wizard. He is also experienced and can handle many matters very well.
The handling of the matter helped Adier a lot during this period.
"This... situation is a bit complicated."
Standing in front of Adier, listening to Adier's words, Child showed a wry smile on his face: "Please come with me."
After speaking, when Adier nodded, he turned around and led a group of people on horseback to the side.
They hurried outside the wilderness, and after a while, they came to a small camp.
There was a faint black smoke in the distance. In the small camp, some elven guards were making fires to cook, while others were on guard and brought some fireworks to the place.
Arriving at this place, Child called a few followers, and then took Adier towards a cave on one side.
"This is?"
Walking into the cave, before walking too far, Adil frowned and felt an unusual aura permeating the surroundings: "The aura of the underground world?"
"good."
In front of Adil, Child nodded: "This is a newly discovered entrance we have discovered. It seems like other places, it can allow creatures from the underground world to pass through."
"Are you sure?" Adil asked with a frown.
Strictly speaking, there are many entrances to the underground world and the above-ground world, but not every entrance can be passed.
Although some entrances exist, due to various reasons, they are not suitable for use as passages and have no use value, so there is no need to worry.
There are often very few passages that can truly allow life in the underground world to enter, and almost all of them have been discovered in the past history. Therefore, there are always people watching at the entrance, and numerous witch formations are arranged above to try to prevent those underground creatures.
Enter.
This is also the reason why the demonic disaster is not too serious now.
Most of the underground creatures that enter the above-ground world enter through some missed small entrances. Not only do they have great limitations, they also require paying a price to enter, which is far inferior to those that have been opened long ago.
"We suspect that the dark elf wizards who previously attempted to assassinate His Majesty King Cass probably entered through this newly discovered passage."
Standing in front of Adil and walking forward, Child explained: "Otherwise, there is no way to explain why they could arrive so quickly."
"Let's go in and have a look." Adir frowned and said after wanting the dark elf prince named Andrew before.
They continued to walk forward, and after walking for more than half an hour, they reached the end point this time.
Wisps of light spread from the front, and the silver radiance illuminated the surroundings, making the surroundings extremely bright.
Feeling the light, Adil looked forward.
In front of you is a very spacious place.
The cave has been specially widened, and the space inside is large enough to squeeze thousands of people into it.
At the top of the cave, several huge crystal stones hung high, emitting a faint silver light, illuminating the surrounding area as if it were daytime.
In this place, the corrosion originating from the underground world becomes more and more intense, and there is a faint black mist filling the space. Several roaring figures occasionally condense in it, and faint roars can be heard from time to time around, making people feel frightened.
When he came here, Adil closed his eyes and felt it carefully.
Among the rich corrosive aura, there was indeed a familiar aura swirling around him. Although it was very faint, he could still feel it.
It was the aura that originated from Andrew's body. The unique aura formed after the blood of the moon elves adapted to the underground world made Adil very unforgettable.
With this discovery, Adil's face suddenly became heavier.
He didn't speak, but just raised his head and looked into the distance. There, the smell of blood and decay was so strong that he couldn't help but frown.
With his now powerful eyesight, he could even see the mountains of corpses piled on the ground in the distance, as well as the dried flesh and blood on the ground. The stench was now emitting and could be smelled from far away.
"This is a blood sacrifice." Behind Adil, Faral, who was accompanying him, also frowned and said, feeling the tragedy in the distance, his face became more disgusted: "I feel the wail of the dead. I'm afraid at least thousands of people died here.
Elves, there are even powerful elf wizards among them.”
"It seems that most of the elves who have disappeared around recently were caught here."
Child's face also looked a little ugly, but he could still remain calm: "We priests have calculated that if it is just the undead and other underground creatures that are causing trouble, so many elves should not die."
"The reason why those undead and underground creatures appear frequently is probably to create an illusion so that we can ignore our surroundings."
"However, we still discovered this place." A priest from the side interrupted.
"No, it's already too late." Child shook his head: "The blood sacrifice here has been completed. It is impossible to reinforce this place next."
"The purpose of those dark elves has been achieved. I am afraid that in two or three years at the earliest, the passage here will be completely penetrated, and all the underground creatures inside will come out."
Hearing this, the faces of the elves around him became a little ugly.
There was silence for a moment, until Adil's voice sounded again.
"Let's go down and take a look." He looked at the pile of corpses below and said.
After listening to Adier's words, the other people nodded silently and continued to move forward.
As they moved forward, the smell of blood in the distance became stronger and stronger, carrying an unpleasant smell of corroded flesh and blood.
However, the elves present were basically wizards. They could not be said to be completely accustomed to this kind of scene, but at least they did not lose their composure. Therefore, they all walked forward calmly at this time, without any fear or worry that ordinary people should have.
roar!!
Waves of roars came from all around, and the sound of the weapon falling to the ground echoed in the cave for a long time, as if coming from all directions, making it appear terrifying and weird.
In the distance, several corpses with dried corpses slowly stood up. At this time, they looked extremely ferocious, struggling to crawl towards Adil and his group, with a blank and blood-colored light in their eyes.
"These corpses have been infected by spiritual impurities and the breath of the underground world."
Looking at the corpses struggling to get up around him, Farrar frowned and made this judgment.
There are a lot of corpses in front of us, perhaps because they are too close to the entrance to the underground world and they have not been dead for a long time. The probability of the corpses here being demonized is very high. Almost one out of every ten corpses has been transformed into one.
They became zombies. At this time, they smelled the breath of Adil and his group and all stood up, looking like a dense crowd.
Bump! Boom!
Several huge explosions sounded around, accompanied by the roar and boiling of mana.
Around Adil, several elven wizards also came out, and the radiance of their spells swirled around, covering the surroundings for a while, sweeping over and over again the corpses that were gradually gathering around them.
Although these ghouls look scary, they may not actually be very strong. Except for a few ghouls who are knights and wizards in front of them, the rest of the ghouls are very fragile and will immediately collapse when exposed to the spells of official wizards.
, it is impossible to fight against it.
In the spacious cave, the rays of magic light continued to light up, and it took more than ten minutes before they slowly stopped.
"Send someone back to burn all the bodies here."
Looking at the fallen corpses in the distance, Adil said: "I don't want to run into these things every time I come down."
While he was speaking, a faint coercion spread from his body, and the kingly attributes of the Moon Elf blood that naturally dominated ordinary elves were exerted, making the other elves present feel awe-inspiring.
"Yes." Behind him, Farrar respectfully accepted the order.
After saying this, they fell into silence again, leaving only the sound of crisp footsteps that continued to sound in place.
After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the end of this time.
It was a huge altar, and above the altar, a huge statue stood there.
This statue is very huge. It looks like the image of a beautiful woman, but it has six arms. Its face looks beautiful and wise, but it has a weird smile.
Under the statue, in the center of the altar, there was a huge opening, with a faint black mist rising continuously, carrying various corrosive auras.
"Unknown force field detected, it is recommended to leave immediately..." In my mind, the voice of the chip machine sounded again.
Listening to the chip's prompt, Adil raised his head and looked at the statue in front of him.
"This statue... is dangerous."
Looking at the statue in front of him, Adil's face gradually became solemn, and an extremely keen intuition arose in his heart, giving him an instinctive sense of danger.
It was the power of natural induction at work that made him instinctively feel the danger of this statue.
The same is true under chip detection.
This statue is filled with a powerful force field that Adier has never seen before. It is just like the aura of the underground world, weird and full of corrosiveness, but it is much more powerful and complex, making the chip useless in a short time.
The method is thoroughly analyzed.
"This should be the statue of the Mother of Darkness." Child's voice sounded from the side.
At this time, he was looking at the tall statue in the distance, his eyes becoming more solemn.
"Chip, retrieve the information about the Mother of Darkness." Standing there, Adil said silently in his heart.
"The Mother of Darkness, the evil god who was active in the ancient glorious period, looks like a beautiful woman with six arms. She is the embodiment of darkness and evil, and has the power to confuse creatures..."
"In ancient times, the Mother of Darkness went to war with the Ancestor of Light. After the defeat and death, the body fell into the underground world. The flesh and blood turned into demonic energy, and the bones turned into curse..."
The sound of the chip in his mind kept ringing, and a large amount of data flowed into Adil's mind.
"Ancient Evil God..."
Hearing this name, Adil's face became a little solemn.
In ancient times, no one could be called an evil god by the ancient wizards.
Since the Mother of Darkness in front of her is known as the Lord of Evil, her power is probably even more terrifying.
If possible, Adil would never want to have anything to do with such a terrifying existence.
"That's the entrance to the underground world." At this time, Farrar suddenly said, looking at the huge black hole in the center of the altar, his face a little solemn.
"The repulsive power of the above-ground world against the underground world is still there, and these underground creatures won't be able to come up in a short time."
Child said: "However, the power of the blood sacrifice has strengthened this passage, and the protection here is rapidly declining."
"Can you go down and have a look?" At this time, Adil asked.
"This... it's okay."
Hearing this, Child hesitated: "However, the underground world's rejection of the above-ground world also exists. Even if we go in, we can only wander in the passage at most, and there is no way to enter the underground world."
"And doing so is somewhat risky."
"It's okay." Adil said: "The rejection between the two worlds is still there. There are probably not many powerful wizards on that side now. We can go in and ensure safety."
He looked at the huge passage in front of him, felt the sensation on his body, and said this.
After hearing this, several priests around nodded in agreement.
Just standing next to Adil, Child was still a little worried: "Even so, there are still some risks in doing this. Why don't you let me take people down to investigate?"
"Okay." Adier nodded to this proposal, and after thinking about it for a while, he finally did not refuse.
After receiving Adier's nod, Child did not hesitate. After roughly sorting out his belongings, he led several officiants and carefully walked down the passage.
Time passed for a long time, and it was more than two hours before Child and the others came out again.
Compared with before entering, at this time, including Child, the faces of the several priests were livid, the auras on their bodies were a little disordered, and it seemed that they had consumed a lot of mana.
Seeing the puzzled expressions of Adil and others, Child didn't say anything. He just smiled bitterly and took out a blue crystal ball, then poured what little mana he had left into it.
The blue crystal ball glowed instantly, and the blue brilliance formed scenes in front of his eyes, completely recording the image of Child leading people into the passage.
In the video, Adil and others saw underground creatures all over the mountains and plains.
Dark elves, black hands, dark tree elves, dark orcs... All kinds of underground creatures that Adil knew and didn't know were densely arranged, like hills, piled up on the other side of the passage, almost overwhelming Child and the others.
