Lord of War

The alternation of day and night in the underground world has only a short signal mark, and the duration is only a few seconds.

Unlike the surface world, there will be obvious landscapes such as sunrise and sunset, dusk and sunset.

In the underground world, when the day comes, the magic stone on the dome has completed charging and emits a faint light. This light will last for a few seconds, giving the residents of the underground world a time to adapt to the bright environment, and then the entire underground world When night falls, all the magic stones will suddenly dim, and the whole underground world will be plunged into a dark scene. After a few seconds, the whole world will be completely dark.

For the residents of the underground world, they have long been accustomed to this alternation of day and night.

Generally, urban residents are fine, because towns will have lighting facilities such as torches and magic lamps, so usually the problem is not big.

Travelers who walk in the wild will start to make corresponding preparations one hour before nightfall, such as taking some defensive measures, or looking for a safe place of refuge, and so on. Because the dark night in the wild is extremely dangerous, most of the night predators are wandering types. In this kind of environment where you can't see your fingers, you will never know whether the originally seemingly safe environment will disappear in the next instant. become a place of death.

Sean doesn't really understand the environment of the underground world.

At least, he thought he understood enough, but now he's completely unsure.

In particular, the injuries on his body suppressed his abilities, which made it difficult for him to perceive too far away. It was precisely because of this that Sean and Kane had to find a safe place to hide temporarily once it was dark. This was the problem that really delayed the two of them.

Knowing that he had traveled for two days and had not left the territory of the Tades clan, Xiao En gradually became a little more irritable in his heart.

He knew that this was a signal of impending danger.

With Sean's current strength and mentality, there are very few things that can make him feel irritated. The main reason is that as his strength increases, the stability of his mentality will gradually be strengthened. So for the strong, having a whim is not a good feeling, because it often means that there will be trouble.

In the past two days, Xiao En felt a little more depressed than before.

At this time, he and Kane were hiding in a cave, and the burning bonfire was their only illumination.

On the surface, in addition to lighting, bonfires are also used for heating.

But in the underground world, there is no need for heating.

The entire underground world will not have the sweltering heat of the bright sun, no clouds, no rain, and there will be no sudden heavy fog or snowstorm. Although there is wind, it is often not strong, completely presenting a four-year-like spring. climate temperature. Therefore, living in the underground world, there is no need to worry about the behavioral logic of taking off clothes when it is hot and adding clothes when it is cold. This is why many residents of the underground world need to spend a long time adapting to the climate and temperature of the surface world once they go to the surface. reason.

In the cave, Sean was sitting watching Kane draw a map on the ground.

The map has three large horizontal dashed lines, and some small pennies branching from these large dashed lines.

Kane said that these three big dashed lines are the main river channel of the underground world, while those small dashed lines are the tributaries branching from the main river channel, and they are also the water source for all the residents of the entire underground world.

Xiao En found that although the three main rivers did not meet each other, many of the tributaries branched out from the three main rivers intersected with each other, and most of the tributaries eventually converged to the very center of the entire underground world map—Kay En said that the lake in the center of the entire underground world is the Earth Sea.

Here's another amazing thing Sean discovered.

There are undercurrents, underground rivers, and even underground lakes underground. Sean still knows these things. However, Xiao En discovered that no matter how he looked at it, the area of ​​this Earth Sea was obviously much wider than that of conventional underground lakes, and it almost occupied one-seventh of the entire underground world. And what Sean can't figure out the most is that the underground world has geographical limits, that is, no matter whether it is east to west or south to north, at the most extreme place, you can see a mountain wall that is as strong as a world barrier .

It is said that in history, many residents of the underground world wanted to open up new territories, but no matter what they did, they were still unable to leave a trace on this mountain wall.

Over time, everyone gave up the idea of ​​opening up new territories, and instead competed for the limited territory of the underground world.

Sean is not very clear about the situation on the surface world, because there are oceans outside of the Miracle Continent. Moreover, the land of the extreme north is the outland divided by the orc empire, the elf empire, and the dwarf empire. No one knows what the extreme north is like.

Apart from these criss-crossing rivers like scars, the entire underground world is roughly divided into six areas.

The first main river near the north is the Blood Ancestor River, and the area to the north bounded by this river is the living area passed down from generation to generation by the blood clan. It is said that in a long time ago, the area from the south of the Blood Ancestor River to the second main river, the Earth Center River, also belonged to the living area of ​​the blood race, but now with the multiplication and complexity of the ethnic tribes in the underground world, today The blood race also had to shrink their living area.

Now, the area from the south of the River of Blood Ancestor to the River of the Earth's Center belongs to the territory of monsters and alien beasts. It is considered a relatively wild area, and is called the land of the wild gods by the residents of the underground world.

With the river in the center of the earth as the boundary, the north is the land of the wild gods, and the south is the deep forest, also known as the forest of deep knowledge, which is the living place of the dark elves. However, the people who live in the Forest of Knowledge are mainly members of the Eternal Night Party. This party is the mainstream party of the dark elves. Although it is relatively close to the Vengeance Party, there is still some estrangement between them. The reason why they have not completely fallen out The main reason is that from time to time, the Eternal Night Party or the Vengeance Party change their positions and join each other's parties, so the two parties are very detailed.

The forest of deep understanding is extremely vast, almost occupying most of the middle of the underground world, continuing south from the forest of deep knowledge is the most iconic region of the underground world: the Earth Sea. Here in the Earth Sea, there are some water-attribute monsters and alien beasts, and of course there are also marine groups, such as sea people, fish demons, etc. Even the six holy blood races would not fight these guys in Earthsea.

Earth Sea is the most central area of ​​the underground world, and it is also the anchor point in the cognition of the residents of the underground world.

To the east of the Earth Sea, passing through the ancient ruins, the millennium battlefield, and the valley of corpse graves, is the hill of the wolf god.

The so-called Wolf God Hill refers to a large piece of hilly terrain uniquely formed here in the underground world. The sixteen oldest tribes of the entire underground werewolf tribe live here. And the next-generation werewolf tribe born from these sixteen tribes also radiated outwards from the Wolf God Hill as the core, but in terms of the number of tribes, there was no way to compare with the blood tribe. It is said that this was because in the eternal war , the number of werewolves falling far exceeds that caused by the vampires.

To the west of the Earth Sea, after passing through the Dragon Bone Battlefield, the ruins of the Holy City, and the Bloodshed, it is bounded by the promenade on the top of the Throne Mountain. The northwest is where the blood elves are active, and the southwest is where the demons are active.

This is a contrast between two extreme styles: the northwest is rich and luxurious, here you can see one tall city after another, almost no villages and towns, and the buildings in the city are also extremely luxurious, obviously just a simple family of three Even counting the hired servants, there are only a dozen people, but their house looks like a family of hundreds of people lives.

On the other hand, the southwest is poor and dilapidated. Even though they belong to the six major holy blood races, the demons are more like nomads. There is almost no concept of towns here, and some are just tribes of different sizes. ethnic group. These tribal groups are formed under the leadership of the king's call, and the size does not represent the actual combat effectiveness of the tribal groups. On the whole, the demons are a race that is difficult to define the actual combat effectiveness.

As for the Nerubian's territory, the area to the south of the Earth Sea and after the South Keel Battlefield also belonged to the Nerubian's territory. However, people in the underground world are more accustomed to calling the area west of Earthsea the Spider Nest, because here you can see almost all the spiders you can imagine: such as crypt cold spiders, crypt ice beads, and ghost-faced spiders , humanoid spiders, and most races that are associated with such spiders, monsters, and alien beasts.

This is the territory and power distribution of the entire underground world.

But after listening to what Kane said, the doubts in Xiao En's mind became deeper and deeper.

He compared the map of the underground world with the map of the surface world, and silently inserted the geographical location of the surface world.

If Earth Sea is the center of the entire underground world, then this location is equivalent to the trading capital of the surface world. Of course, the capital of trade is not as vast as the sea of ​​land, and the land around the capital of trade must be included, and even the borders of several countries are involved, but there is absolutely no problem in substituting this part of the location.

Taking the trading capital as the center, Sean believed that the position where he and Serena started the war should probably be between the spider's nest and the demon territory. If the underground world corresponds to the location of the surface world, then he is either in the territory of the demon descendant or the territory of the nerubian.

But in fact, it turned out that he was in the territory of the blood clan.

You know, according to the comparison of the map, the territory of the blood race is the northern part of the Miracle Continent. Even if it is not an outlander area, it should correspond to the location of the Northern Principality Federation or the St. Jolls Empire. But Sean knew that in the game world, he had read the introduction about the underground world, so he knew that the vastness of the underground world was calculated according to the two continents of the Miracle Continent and the Outer Land, not just the Miracle Continent territory.

Even if the territory of the underground world is turned upside down, it still doesn't match up at all-in this way, the blood race's territory is indeed switched from the north to the south, but the location of the battle between Sean and Serena is also not in the On the contrary, the territory of the demon party will become closer to the territory of the werewolves because of the map switch. Because from the map drawn by Kane, the Wolf God Hill is in the east of Earthsea, but the werewolf tribe that radiates from the vast area occupies most of the northeast area.

Looking at the map of the underground world painted on the cave floor, Sean fell into silence.

However, Kane can only draw a rough map of the underground world, and he can't do anything with a map that is too detailed. After all, the territories owned by different clans, tribes, and ethnic groups will change with their influence. The size of the territory of these clans is not static.

"In any case, we must go to the werewolf territory." After a long time of contemplation, Sean finally made a decision.

He still holds a path to the abyss in his hand, but because of the regional differences in the underground world, he cannot judge the specific location of the path to the abyss. But judging from Serena's situation, Sean tentatively speculates that the map of the underground world and the surface world are reversed, so no matter what, he must go to the werewolf territory to find out the situation.

When he was communicating with Serena, he had already drawn out her information, so Sean believed that with the character of the Demon Party, he would use the path to the abyss as a backup channel, so this proves that the path to the abyss must be In the hands of the devil party. The only thing he needs to do is to find a territory of the blood demon party on the territory of the werewolves, and there is also a path to the abyss in this territory. As long as these three requirements are met, it will definitely lead to the Void Principality. A path to the abyss.

As for the method after finding it, it is also simple, just open it directly.

"Dad!" The Black King's sudden opening broke Xiao En's thinking about the next plan.

And the moment he came back to his senses, Xiao En frowned. Although his perception ability has been greatly reduced due to injury, he needs to rely on the assistance of the Black King. But if it gets close enough, Sean's keen perception can still play a role.

It's just that at this moment, the moment after the Black King issued a warning, someone broke into Xiao En's range of perception, which was enough to show that the other party's attitude was not friendly.

Without the slightest hesitation, Sean drew his sword instantly.

A beam of sword energy shot out directly, towards the entrance of the cave.

The bonfire on the ground kept swaying towards the entrance of the cave the moment the sword energy burst out, as if a strong wind was blowing.

The fierce sword energy raged out, drawing a long crack on the ground, and bumping into a black shadow head-on. (To be continued.)
