Arcane Rebirth

I don’t know how deep the Great Rift Valley cliff is, there are two wrecks of iron chain bridges that have been broken due to rust. On the opposite side of the Great Rift Valley, I don’t know how wide the underground world is.

Standing next to the Great Rift Valley where upward air and humid air were gushing out from the ground, Jialan and the others finally discovered the sources of the "firelight" and "vocals" that the thieves discovered during the investigation.

Opposite the Great Rift Valley, a settlement of underground creatures was coming. Noisy movements were coming. Under the swaying torches, the two "underground creatures" that could not see clearly seemed to be in conflict!

“Those on the opposite side…”

Hugo stood on tiptoe and looked across the Rift Valley for a while before looking at the strange face, pointing to a large shadow on the other side and said, "If I read it correctly, is it a tree?"

The Golden Snorkeling Card with super vision nodded: "Yes, it's a tree."

Hugo said in confusion: "But why is it a tree?"

Carter rolled his eyes: "How could I know!"

The two of them had a bit of nonsensical conversation, which was the doubt in the hearts of others. Although trees are not unusual, here are underground hundreds of meters below the ground, without sunlight. How did they grow?

Although this large rift valley that is dozens of meters wide is not bottomless, it is impossible for the underground creatures on the opposite side to cross it, posing a threat to the ruins of the Dragon Temple that has become Jialan's property, but we cannot just leave it alone.

They searched the remains, but found no trace of the escaped Feitouman.

An immortal blood-sucking creature like Feitouman is not naturally produced. Just like several employees of the Doom Castle, it reproduces through infection derivatives, so there must be a "source".

Jialan found no traces that could cause Feitouman to produce in the ruins that had been explored. This shows that Feitouman, who was struggling to "return to the nest" after being seriously injured by the mercenaries, was not this.

The "resident" of the Dragon Blessing Relics flew over from the opposite side of the large underground crack!

This trip to explore the ruins was really tortuous and amazed Gu Yi. Starting from the castle dungeon and until the large cracks underground, the area of ​​this underground ruins was already large beyond everyone's imagination.

It can't be regarded as a ruin. It's a complete dungeon!

Although the cost of purchasing the Doom Fort is quite valuable, compared with the large castle group with an area of ​​100,000 square meters (about 330,000 m2) and the surrounding land of more than 12 million square meters (about 40 km2) attached.

The price of 8 million quintalam, based on the economic environment and consumption level of this era, can only be considered a bargain price.

But no one expected that under the Castle of Doom, there was such a huge complete dungeon. This was no different from spending money to buy a cabbage, but the seller provided a farm. Even Kenmet and others couldn't help but be right.

Jialan felt jealous of her good luck.

However, if this dungeon wants to renovate, it may cost more than ten or a hundred times the cost of purchasing the Doom Castle.

But no matter what, the ruins of this dungeon are already Jia Lan's property. To put it in a short sentence of a foreign proverb, it is "How can others be allowed to snore next to your own bed?"

Therefore, after careful observation for a while, I noticed that the underground creatures on the other side of the large rift were not very dangerous, so the mercenaries began to busy preparing to cross the large rift.

The mercenary group with magicians in charge obviously had an advantage in dealing with this problem. A wind magician flew through a large crack with a rope and tied it to the roots of a big tree on the other side.

.

Then under the control of the intermediate earth magician, a large mass of soil surged, attached layer by layer to the rock wall of the large crack, gradually climbing up the rope and extending to the opposite shore, slowly forming a stream of soil

arch bridge!

When the dirt arch bridge about two meters wide was formed, several primary soil magicians replaced the intermediate soil magicians with huge magic power consumption and began to release "dirt reinforcement technique" on the dirt arch bridge to make it stronger.

Although this soil arch bridge is incomparable to the stone bridge, it is not a big problem to use it in a short period of time. It is just that in order not to put too much pressure on the soil arch bridge, the group of people were cautiously divided into five people to cross the bridge.

The flight was completed soon.

When Jialan crossed the arch bridge, she looked at the big crack that extended there on both sides for a long time. She suspected that the Rock Bridge Hall behind the secret door to the south of the circular hall was located on the same underground abyss!

Through the low and twisted strange woods, there were not many leaves, everyone lurking outside the range of the torch light held by two gangs of underground creatures fighting, but was surprised to find that one of them turned out to be a dwarf, while the other one

It turned out to be a bunch of lizard humans!

Although in the current era of city-state politics, racial integration has become a trend, in the southern continent where Girag County is located, there are few tribes in the dwarf and lizard human races, so these two races are in the Kolandon region.

It is considered an ethnic minority.

Especially the lizards, most of them live in wet rainforests, wetlands or swamps. They are rarely seen in Gillagh County, but in the Toraco Swamp and Kara Rainforest areas of Dagon County, there are some

Their settlement.

But no matter what, both races should belong to the surface race, and for some reason they appeared in this mysterious underground.

The mercenaries hiding in the dark all stared at Jialan with their flickering eyes, waiting for his decision to help the dwarf or the lizard man?

But Jialan narrowed her eyes and stared at the battlefield of melee, without saying a word.

These mercenaries who lived in the Apocalypse had no idea about the dark area, so they naively believed that the dwarves and lizard men were all surface races, and even because the relationship between humans and dwarves was pretty good.

And tend to help those dwarves.

However, for Jialan, who once lived in the pre-civilization dawn era, it is easy to distinguish the true identities of these two races from certain characteristics in them.

The two races in the battle are indeed part of the dwarfs and the lizards, but one is the "underground dwarfs" and the other is the "ground lizards"!

Like a large number of humans, they are divided into a large number of different ethnic groups according to nationality, region, skin color, race, etc., and each race also has a large number of subspecies.

For example, what Kenmait thinks is "dwarfs" usually refer to "hill dwarfs" who have the most contact with humans and have intersections in their living areas. In addition, there are "lowland dwarfs", "mountain dwarfs", and "alpine dwarfs".

” and other different dwarf peoples live in the surface world.

Underground, the close relatives of the "lowland dwarves" live in "underground dwarves". What they see now is the "near-ground dwarves" among the "underground dwarves".

The dwarves have a large number of ethnic groups, and it is difficult to distinguish them so clearly according to human habits. Therefore, in the pre-civilization era, some mages who studied biological races used a "Race Living Environment Map and Altitude List" to divide them.

An interesting category came out:

Alpine dwarf - above 5,000 meters above sea level;

Mountain dwarfs—altitude of 1000~3000 meters;

Hilly dwarfs—average 500~1000 meters;

Lowland dwarf - 0~500 meters above sea level; (also known as "flatland dwarf")

Near-Earth dwarves - altitude -500~0 meters; (the ethnic group closest to the surface of "underground dwarves")

Middle-earth dwarfs——1000~3000 meters above sea level;

Deep Dwarf - altitude below -5000 meters;

In addition, in areas above 5,000 meters and below -5,000 meters, there are also rare "distant relatives" of dwarves, such as "Sky Dwarves" and "Abyss Dwarves", but it is almost impossible to see in the human world.

As for them, even the dwarves themselves were not very aware of the existence of these distant relatives, so they skipped it.

Like dwarves, the lizard tribes are also of various species. The most common ones in the surface world are rainforest lizards, wetland lizards, swamp lizards, or collectively known as "land lizard tribes". A rarer one is the "sea lizard tribe".

That's it, but they all belong to the "scadless lizard human race".

These in front of you are another branch of the "Ground Lizard Clan" living underground by the lizard human race. Among them, due to some subtle differences, they can be divided into "Lizard Hunting", "Iguan Clan", and "War Lizard Clan"

"Word, although they still belong to the "scadless lizard human race", they basically have no blood relationship with the "land lizard tribe".

As for the distant relative of the "Scaleless Lizard Human", the "Scaleless Lizard Human", we will not talk about it for the time being because the blood relationship is too far away. Let's just talk about the "Lizard Hunter" among these "Ground Lizard Clan".

Just like darkness rejects light and the undead hates creatures, these races that live underground and regard as "dark creatures" by humans naturally reject surface creatures, which are far less kind than the mercenaries imagine, so according to Jialan

The idea is that it is best not to help each other, and then go out to clean up the war after both of them suffer losses.

But the situation is never as beautiful as imagined. These lizard hunters with extremely sensitive sense of smell soon noticed that there were outsiders and actually divided up a group of soldiers and rushed towards the low woods where Jia Lan and the others were hiding!

Jialan shrugged helplessly, and now they don’t have to choose who to help.

Since entering the ruins of the Dragon Being Sect, all the silver-level monsters "Dark Magic Rats" and even golden skeletons that surpass most mercenaries. The mercenaries who have long been frustrated and do not even need them.

The leader ordered, and they all excitedly pulled out their weapons and rushed out. (To be continued...)
