Darkness, claustrophobia, and anxiety are the eternal themes of underground space.
After activating the slaves, the mine leading to the underground city was completely renovated.
Isaac finally set foot underground for the first time.
The tangled underground passages, the rugged and steep terrain, and the eternal darkness that seemed to be able to swallow up all light, not even the immortal torch could illuminate more than ten feet.
From time to time, you can still hear the sound of flying bats, and giant rats are disturbed and scurry around in the dark passage.
Not only that, but as he went deeper, Isaac, who was extremely sensitive to magic, even detected some weird and evil magic auras.
"When venturing in the Underdark, if you don't have enough dark vision, then full-body steel armor is a necessity. Because dangers are everywhere around you, even on the top of the cave, steel armor is definitely safer than flesh and blood."
Wesley, a samurai with adventure experience in the Dark Territory, was invited by Green through his connections within the business group.
Because he was still at the shallow level, and because this time he was accompanied by a green dragon, with a kobold in front of him leading the way, and an ogre following behind, he was relatively relaxed.
"When the team is marching, there must be dedicated detectives in front and behind at the same time, because many monsters have much sharper perceptions than we do. The slightest movement may alarm them from a distance."
"It is relatively safe to travel between cities that have signed a contract. Do not explore unknown areas at will. No one knows whether there will be monsters more evil than the devil there."
For example, big eyes, octopus head, or a certain fish whose history is as old as the dragon.
Isaac supplemented him in his mind, and then changed the subject: "Why do you think the gray dwarves suddenly disappeared?"
"It's a bit of a guess." Wesley weighed it and said, "The gray dwarves are a contradictory race. They dig tirelessly, but they don't take it as an honor. They savagely plunder the population as slaves, but Very depressed themselves, they also have a general paranoia.
I suspect that it was you who took the initiative to invite them to visit and made them feel the crisis. After all..."
He paused briefly.
But everyone can understand the meaning.
After all, you are always a five-color dragon, and you are so confident. If they are suspicious and think too much, it is naturally better to run away.
Especially your old bitch will brag you like a god.
"The size of this city shouldn't be big." Wesley added.
suspicious!
Isaac nodded slightly in his mind.
No wonder he is so "friendly", but those ignorant dwarves still dare to be like this!
Then he asked: "My servant told me that there were drow elves in the deeper underground. Does this mean that there may be a drow city somewhere?"
"It's a huge probability. After all, there are only a few wandering drow." Wesley looked serious for a moment, and after thinking, he continued, "At the right time, you may be able to send some envoys to contact there and test it out. The strength and weakness there are weak and weak. Although the drow are evil, I think they will still respect you. If you don't consider conquering them, you may consider signing a relatively stable city contract with them. Through them , it should also be able to penetrate into the Underdark faster.”
Although the drow are evil, the green dragon is in charge.
Even beholders, mind flayers, and aboleths, if they collided individually, the green dragon would definitely be the boss, right?
At least that's what Isaac thought.
Just as he was talking, the passage finally came to an end.
Pieces of fluorescent light appeared in Isaac's field of vision, like stars in the night sky, beautiful and mysterious.
With this fluorescence, he could also see clearly what was ahead.
This is a valley with a radius of several miles and a height of about a hundred feet. Four castles connected by suspension bridges are the core of the city. Between the castles, there are low houses and even caves. It looks like a penned-in slave quarters.
On the ground around the castle, on the surrounding cave walls, and on the stalactites on the roof of the cave, there are patches of fungi growing.
Fluorescence comes from them.
This eternally dark space, because of their embellishments, suddenly appears a little bit alive and has some mysterious charm.
"It can also grow on stones. If you cultivate them well, dragon flies can be used here even without the immortal torch."
Isaac looked at the castle first, and then observed the fluorescent fungus with great interest.
There are many mysterious species underground, and with the development of trade routes, he should have indispensable research materials.
"The great Green Dragon King, we have eliminated all threats around us. When can we go back?"
At this time, the spiny tailed lions flew over.
They, who lacked intelligence, paid homage to their boss, and at the same time asked him their true feelings directly.
After hunting for such a long time, they have long been irritated. If the Green Dragon King was not too powerful and the army of hundreds of thousands of dragon flies made them dare not even think about resisting, they might have run up earlier.
"I will let the ogre warrior take over for you, and you will rotate every once in a while."
Isaac quickly made arrangements and noticed that one of the spiny tailed lions had several huge lacerations on its body.
We were hunting together and suffered injuries like this, which shows that the danger in the Underdark is indeed extremely great.
There are indeed few elite soldiers and generals under his command.
But, at least for the time being, Isaac is not prepared to interfere with their size.
His dragon beast plan is still in progress. Compared with them, the dragon beast naturally has greater potential, and it also listens to "Dad" more.
Unless something goes wrong with the dragon beast plan, there is no need to interfere with them.
"Four castles. Counting children, the total number of gray dwarves will never exceed five hundred. In the underground city, this is a very small size. With their suspicion, they dare not meet you, so of course." Cautiously keeping a little distance from the spiny tailed lions, Wesley observed the surrounding situation and made a quick judgment.
Ge Lin was also observing the surroundings, but what he was observing was that there was something that might have value.
Miriam was immersed in the mysterious beauty of the dungeon. After all, she was still a young girl. Of course, this was also because she had long been used to seeing spiny tailed lions and didn't care at all.
"The scale is indeed small. We also need a thick city wall. Between the castle and the castle, I think we can build a conference hall, and use this place as a place for discussion in the future."
Isaac glanced at his human friend.
Ge Lin obviously understood what he meant and agreed: "It couldn't be more hidden to discuss things here. Sir, this is your dungeon. Do you know the name?"
"Watching and helping each other is our purpose. Since this is the meeting place, let's call it 'Watching City'." Isaac thought about it and quickly made a decision.
Gelin and Miriam smiled and said hello.
Wesley was a little confused. The green dragon is helping them? He actually suspected that Ge Lin and the others were seduced by the green dragon.
There is nothing left to explore in the castle, and if there ever was, it should be cleared out by the kobolds.
Isaac and his team walked around and decided on the city's reconstruction plan. Soon, groups of slaves rushed here.
The city was built and the mines were mined. Although the ogres were lazy, being driven out of the castle could still serve as a warning.
Isaac himself also takes some time to come down every day.
Study the cultivation of fluorescent bacteria, search for valuable characteristic species, and also study the unique mysterious magic power of this underground place...
One month later, Green finally came up with the preliminary charter of the consortium.
There was no problem in determining the general direction, and Isaac passed right through.
Green and Carasso immediately hurried away, both to test and to win over "like-minded" partners with suitable wealth and strength!
No one noticed that around the dungeon, the fluorescence was more beautiful and abundant.
No one noticed that patches of dark green lichen quietly grew in many places in Isaac's lair.
