Chapter 1239 Underdark Region (I)
For the gray dwarves, this is just another common practice of trade.
He had just completed a large deal with his servants, and he was heading towards his warm and comfortable home in Greystone City with satisfaction. But this does not mean that the gray dwarf will give up his vigilance. The poisoned crossbow is still tied to his wrist, and he has done delicate handling to ensure that he can shoot all the crossbow bolts in front of him with just one finger.
One's own servants are not to be trusted, and who knows if they'll secretly try to take his place, the Underdark is not a place of good standing, if they think they can defy him, or have a chance to replace him, Well these bastards are bound to do it.
The same goes for those bear goblins. Although they are stupid and stupid, if they are not allowed to figure out the situation in front of them, who knows if they will choose to rob their employers.
Not to mention all kinds of terrifying monsters that may exist in the Underdark...
Thinking of this, the gray dwarf turned his head and glanced behind him. Except for the place in front of me that was illuminated by the flames, the deep tunnel was in pitch darkness, which made people feel flustered.
The gray dwarf looked away helplessly, and once again focused on his cargo.
No one noticed that the god of death was approaching them quietly.
The bear goblins walking at the end had dull footsteps. They shook their bear-like heads and opened their mouths from time to time to yawn. The sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the tunnel, but nothing else could be heard.
"Pfft."
However, at the same time as the last two goblin bears were stepping forward, sharp black tails flew down from the top of their heads, piercing through the heads of these two goblin bears in the blink of an eye, before they could react. Coming over, I saw the strange-shaped tail flicked, and it was directly wrapped around the bear goblin's neck, bringing it into the air, and then it was pulled directly into the cave above its head, where it disappeared without a trace.
"...?"
Maybe they noticed something, the other two goblins walking beside the ground beast also turned their heads and looked behind them, but before they could clearly see what was going on behind them, the shadow fell from the sky again and struck them Kill and take away.
In just a few seconds, the number of guards in the entire caravan was reduced by more than half. However, it wasn't until this time that the gray dwarves seemed to realize something was wrong.
He turned his head to look back again, and his scalp felt numb all of a sudden——all the caravan guards who were supposed to be behind had disappeared at this moment!
"Damn...stop! stop! Hurry up, you idiots, look behind, what happened..."
However, the gray dwarf hadn't finished speaking, the next moment he saw several black shadows jumping down from the top of the cave and pounced on them! !
"Wow!!"
Faced with these aliens who suddenly attacked, the servants of the gray dwarves were also terrified. One of the mages hurriedly raised his staff and tried to cast a spell. He fell to the ground firmly, and then shot his head.
Seeing this scene, the gray dwarf felt his scalp tingle, he immediately raised his right hand, aimed at the alien in front of him and pulled the trigger.
"Da da da da da!!"
The crossbow bolts smeared with poison shot out like machine gun bullets, hitting those dark and alien bodies, but what surprised the gray dwarves was that these crossbow bolts made of fine iron couldn't even penetrate the shells of these black monsters!
Just kidding, what kind of monster is this!
"Roar!!"
At this moment, the goblin bears who were in charge of guarding in front also rushed over. They waved their weapons and rushed towards the alien in front of them. Seeing these goblin bears, the aliens immediately put down the corpses in their hands and started fighting with them.
Just when the scene became chaotic, the gray dwarves made a very correct decision.
Turn around and run!
That's right, for the gray dwarf, he knew that this batch of goods was finished. Although the bear goblins were strong and strong, they would definitely not be the opponents of these damned monsters. So it also hastily swiped the whip, hit the ground beast under it heavily, and scolded.
Hearing the gray dwarf's scolding, the ground beasts in the caravan immediately sped up their speed, although their appearance looked like a fusion of huge crocodiles or lizards. However, the speed when running at full speed was dissatisfied. I saw the gray dwarf controlling the herd of beasts in this way, taking advantage of the opportunity of the bear goblin and the alien to fight, quickly rushed out of the battlefield and ran towards the depths of the tunnel.
He doesn't care who wins or loses between the bear goblins and the dark monsters. Of course, those bear goblins have nothing to do with him whether they live or die, and he can pay less money!
Now I just hope those monsters don't come after me.
While desperately driving away the land beast, the gray dwarf turned his head and looked back. What made him heave a sigh of relief was that there were no figures of those pitch-black monsters behind. It seemed that they hadn't chased them at all.
That's good, although there are some losses, as long as I return to Greystone City...
"———————————!"
However, what the gray dwarf did not expect was that at this moment, the land beast under him suddenly stopped, and the gray dwarf obviously did not expect this situation at all, and there would be no responsibility for the speeding land beast. Safe seat belts. So it immediately obeyed the rules of inertia, a Gulu flew out of the ground beast, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Damn, you stupid bastards, what are you doing!"
Fortunately, the duergar's physique was as strong as their dwarf cousins, and this little damage was nothing more than a scratch to him. The gray dwarf rolled and stood up from the ground, rushed towards his own land beast again, and beat it hard.
But what puzzled the gray dwarf was that these originally obedient land beasts lay motionless on the ground at the moment, no matter how much they beat and scolded, they didn't move their bodies. This immediately made the gray dwarf aware that something was wrong, but at the same time, he heard footsteps coming from behind him.
"Da da da………"
The gray dwarf turned around, only to see several figures emerging from the dark tunnel.
One male and four female, they seem to be surface humans.
Are you an adventurer?
It's not that the gray dwarves haven't seen humans who have come to the Underdark to take risks. Most of those people are idiots, but these people in front of them seem to be different, and they don't wear leather armor like those adventurers. On the contrary, the man walking in the front was wearing a dark dress, and the few human women behind him were also wearing some light and strange-looking clothes.
Could it be that they regard the Underdark as a place for wild outings?
"Hello, Mr. Gray Dwarf."
Looking at the pale gray dwarf in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled slightly. Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the tense gray dwarf seemed to relax a little.
"Hello, I never expected to see adventurers like you in the Underdark..."
"what are you doing?"
"I am taking a rest."
Facing Fangzheng's question, the gray dwarf didn't hesitate at all, and lied without hesitation.
"My servants are looking for food and water nearby, and they will be back soon..."
As he spoke, the gray dwarf glanced behind him quietly. Fortunately, he didn't see any strange signs.
"Oh I got it."
Hearing the gray dwarf's answer, Fang Zheng's smile did not change at all.
"Well, I happen to have something that I need your help with."
"help?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded.
"Looking at you, you should be a businessman who travels to and from the Underdark. We have something to do with the dark elves here. I wonder if I can ask you to lead the way?"
"Dark Elf?!"
Hearing this, the gray dwarf was startled, and then he shook his head hastily.
"I don't know, I don't know the situation of the dark elves, I'm just a businessman, I don't know the way to the dark elves' city, but someone knows, if you want to find the dark elves, you can come with me Go to Greystone City, there are people who are very familiar with the situation of the dark elves..."
"I want you to lead the way."
However, Fang Zheng completely ignored the gray dwarf's excuse and directly stated his request.
"Otherwise, you may have some unpleasant encounters."
"What are you talking about? I really don't know..."
However, before the gray dwarf finished speaking, he felt someone pat on his shoulder, which made the gray dwarf stunned for a moment, and then he turned his head away.
Afterwards, the gray dwarf saw a pitch-black monster squatting quietly behind him, and opened its mouth.
"————!"
Looking at the incessantly opening and closing tone protruding from the bloody mouth, the gray dwarf only felt the heat in his crotch.
Then, he didn't know anything.
