The last group of high elves passed on their will for revenge and thirst for blood against the surface elves' betrayers to the newly born dark elves through magic rituals, and they themselves paid the price with their lives.
About three hundred years later, a new dark elf civilization emerged in the Underdark.
The first and last empire of the dark elves was Tarentiva, whose capital was built in the huge cave of Barentun captured from the dwarf kingdom. The dark elves who later revived civilization (they still call themselves drow)
Adhering to the will of revenge, he took revenge on ordinary elves and tried to return to the surface.
But after all, the number of dark elves cannot be compared with that of ordinary elves, and revenge does not go smoothly. Moreover, with the reproduction of generations, the will of revenge in the blood of dark elves becomes weaker and weaker, and the desire for the blood of surface elves gradually weakens.
What's more important is that the dark elves have gradually adapted to life underground, and have even begun to become uncomfortable with the surface environment, and their desire to return to the surface has gradually disappeared.
Under this situation, the evil nature of the dark elves gradually broke out. They shifted their main energy to internal competition and began to fight for each other and kill each other. The nobles fought against the nobles, and the priests attacked the priests, just to compete for the dominance of this new territory.
Then the civil war broke out, and the scale of the civil war became larger and larger.
In the end, the war ended in a sudden and huge explosion, which caused the roof of Barenton's cave to completely collapse. Many dark elves were buried in this tragedy together with the dwarf city they captured.
The Barrenton Cave, now open to the public, was later known as the Great Rift. The duergar's ancestors later re-settled the land, and the land and the nearby intricate caves became known as the Underdark.
In the next era known as the Great Exile, the remaining dark elf nobles and priests gathered their surviving compatriots, slaves and remaining equipment and fled into the Underdark. Since then, countless cities and small settlements have
They were born and fell like mushrooms in the realm of the old Tarentiva Empire.
But after that, the dark elves were no longer a complete force, but divided into countless small cities and settlements. They did not belong to each other, and wars often broke out.
Due to the teachings of Lolth, the Spider-Queen, most Dark Elf cities are ruled by priestesses in a matriarchal society. In cities that follow the ways of Lolth, Dark Elves are usually organized by several noble families and
Ruled by a strict class system. A small group of top noble families will be organized into a ruling council, and the speaker is the highest-ranking priestess of the first family. Each family is also ruled by a highest-ranking priestess.
, these women are called mistresses.
The priests here are slightly different from the priests of the player's profession, and they are truly capable of making sacrifices. Of course, the gods in "Decision" will not really appear, but only serve as providers of divine magic and have certain reality intervention capabilities.
Therefore, in the dark elf society, the status of priests is the highest and is mostly held by women. Men can only do some unimportant jobs, and their professions are mostly agile warriors or thieves. They are not used to using heavy weapons and dual-wielding.
It is their signature feature, which gives a bonus to dual holding.
As a subspecies of elves, dark elves are usually only 1.6 meters tall, which means they have a small body and weigh about 50 kilograms. Dark elves are usually shorter than other elves and relatively weaker in strength, but their movements are more agile than elves on the ground.
It has high magic resistance, but poor resistance to fire, water, and thunder. The combat effectiveness of dark elves in the sun is weakened to a certain extent, and it will cause blindness when encountering strong light.
Under this circumstance, it is not surprising why there is such a description in the previous task prompt - "Some of the rewards that can be obtained during this branch of the task are more inclined to agile players. Players with dark vision and stealth abilities will be able to
It has great advantages in this task.”
The death of this dark elf gave Yun Xiaohan 0.5% of level-level experience, which is quite a lot. In addition, he also published a skill book called [Shadow Dodge].
[Shadow Dodge] is a sixth-level rare general skill. The prerequisites for learning are similar to the previous [Shadow Raid]. It also requires two shadow skills, and it must be an active shadow skill, but other prerequisite skills must be
If one is missing, the permanent increase in agility attribute must be above 50%, which is 10% higher than the 40% of [Stealth Raid].
The effect of [Shadow Dodge] is to blur one's body and 100% dodge the next attack within 5 seconds. After the dodge is successful, the damage dealt to the attacker will be increased by 50% when counterattacking, lasting 2 seconds.
, cooling time 2 minutes.
This skill is very powerful, it feels stronger than [Stealth Raid], but the cooldown time is a bit long.
But Yun Xiaohan doesn't mind. It's not for his own use anyway, so long as he can get good skills.
After killing the dark elf, Yun Xiaohan did not wait for the task prompt to complete the first stage of the branch task. However, the task log was updated, which read: "Yun Xiaohan was sneak attacked by the dark elf, fought back and successfully killed him.
The Dark Elves."
It seems that Yun Xiaohan will continue to explore.
Yun Xiaohan went all the way down the ladder-shaped tunnel, and encountered no more enemies along the way. After about 4 minutes, Yun Xiaohan finally reached the bottom of the ladder-shaped tunnel.
After jumping down from the stepped tunnel, Yun Xiaohan began to observe the surrounding environment. As soon as his feet landed, a new system prompt appeared, reminding Yun Xiaohan that he had discovered the "Dark Territory".
Under the illumination of torches, the surrounding stone walls are gray and monotonous, seeming to smell of death, while the top is solid rock. Dark tunnels zigzag through the gloomy country, digging through large and small caves, connecting high-rise buildings.
High and low caves. Stalagmites as sharp as the teeth of a sleeping dragon silently block the way of the intruders.
There was silence all around, and there seemed to be a huge beast hidden under the dim light and shadow. The only sound that could be heard was the constant dripping of water. The sound of water was like the heartbeat of a beast, hitting the silent rocks and falling into the dark area.
In the cold underground lake.
Of course, the so-called beasts are all Yun Xiaohan's imagination when he entered a dark environment. I have to admit that making virtual games too real will inevitably cause some side effects. If you are used to sunlight and an open surface environment, you suddenly come to this claustrophobic and dark environment.
In such an environment, even Yun Xiaohan is somewhat uncomfortable. He will need to go through an adaptation period before he can slowly adapt.
