Chapter 399: Demon Abyss Competition
Sharhera, an underground city, suddenly became much more lively thanks to the presence of adventurers, and in addition to the dark elves, you can also see adventurers in all kinds of clothes in the narrow and crowded streets.
These adventurers get along well with the dark elves, and have formed a small-scale barter trading model, of course, Tang En feels that the reason why the two sides get along so happily is more because of the generous welfare of the dark elves.
The vast majority of adventurers are traveling all year round, most of them have not got a family, they will not leave the industry until they make enough money, so these people have been lonely for a long time, after meeting the dark elves, it is simply dry wood and fire, and they hit it off, these days the dark elves of Sharhera are singing every night like a festival.
This made Don always feel that it was not the adventurers who took advantage, but more like they took advantage of the dark elves - didn't you see that in the past two days, the dark elf girls were all red and red, and their pale skin was a little more bloody, and those dark elf males all looked finally relieved and grateful to the adventurers?
It's just adventurers falling into ******!
"I'm relieved to see you're okay."
Barod glanced at Lola from a distance and whispered, "It is said that she is deeply loved by the Goddess of Eternal Darkness, and she also has a strong desire, and I was worried that you would be drained of your energy by her." β
Don En smiled dryly and touched his nose, what could he say? Tell Barold that if he hadn't used some means, he would have really been squeezed out by Aitanox and Lola?
Seeing Done's expression, Barod seemed to understand something, and looked at Donn with great sympathy.
"Don't talk about that," Don changed the subject, "Before, because of me, those Warcraft were all dead, and now what Warcraft are you using to compete?" β
"I had to make up the numbers on the fly."
Barod pointed to the demonic beast that was being controlled behind him, and said in a low voice: "However, because of the trade contract with you, the next food is not so scarce, so the importance of the Demon Abyss competition is not so strong. β
After saying that, Barod smiled and patted Donn's waist: "Regardless of the cause, now I have decided that you are our friend, and I hope we will cooperate happily in the future." β
Yes, no matter what the cause is, in the end, the Red Grotto dwarves represented by Barod got real benefits, so they did not resent Donn, and now that the polluters have also been removed, Barod has taken the initiative to maintain the relationship with Donn, striving for a more stable future for both sides, so that the Red Grotto Dwarves have a better way out.
After setting out from Sharhera, passing through several caves, and repelling several waves of demonic beasts in the middle, it only took half a day for the dark elves, red grotto dwarves, and Ellington's warriors to arrive at the outskirts of the abyss - this is a relatively important location after all, and the Phoenix mercenary group and other adventurers have not been invited.
Lola and Don explained the precautions for entering the abyss, and after making sure that everyone understood, they teamed up with Barold to open the stone door that sealed the cave.
After entering the stone gate, they appeared at one end of the Demon Abyss Rift.
This underground rift was much larger than the rift I had encountered before, hundreds of meters wide, I don't know how long, and as far as the eye could see, a band of light purple light disappeared into the depths of the cave.
The center of the rift glows with a lilac glow, and at the bottom of the rift, some black-purple crystals can be faintly seen.
Those glowing hedrons are the most expensive Exorcist Stones on the surface.
It's all over the place.
Tang En could clearly feel that the mana in his body was rapidly draining outward, if he hadn't made preparations in advance before entering, I'm afraid that someone would have forcibly controlled the loss of mana at this time, resulting in an explosion and death.
"Oh my God!"
Fiona took a breath of cold air, and her whole body trembled: "Elimination Stone!?" All the glowing underneath here are Elimination Stones!? β
Before she came, Don had already told her about the Demon Elimination Stone, and Fiona also had a general understanding of the market price of the Demon Elimination Stone, and now when she saw so many Demon Elimination Stones in front of her, the whole person was not good.
As long as you dig it out, it's a terrifying fortune!
Lola gave Don a wink, and the meaning was obvious: these magic stones are yours.
"That's right, there's the Demon Elimination Stone under the Rift, but the question is how to dig it out."
Lola smiled and pointed down, and said, "This rift is about the height of six hundred elves, and it is completely impossible to use magic in the rift, and can only rely on flying demonic beasts to move. β
Six hundred elves are as tall as ...... The average height of the dark elves is about one meter six, and six hundred elves add up...... This rift is almost a thousand meters deep?
If you only rely on Warcraft, mining may be troublesome.
The most helpless thing is that there is no place to settle on the cliffs on both sides, and it is very smooth, even if you want to climb up and down with a rope, you can't do it.
"Oh, yes, one more thing."
Lola clapped her hands and said, "There are also many variants of petrified lizards and stone giants living under this canyon, and they have become a symbiotic relationship with the Demonic Stone, and they are immune to the effects of the Demonic Stone - they are the only ones who can use magic in the Demonic Abyss. β
"There are still elemental-like creatures?"
Tang En's brows furrowed, this is even more troublesome, it is inconvenient to go up and down, and there is a threat below......
It's hard to do.
"Don't worry, our warriors will take care of it, they know everything about the Demon Abyss."
Lola just said those words just to let Don know how risky it was for her people to collect the Demon Elimination Stone, which could increase the weight of the dark elves in Don's heart.
Tang En sighed: "Don't set up a flag...... I already have an ominous premonition. β
Of course, Lola didn't know what FLAG meant, she crossed her arms, looked down at Barod proudly, and said, "Why didn't you see that 'Divine Lightning' that makes you very proud this year?" β
The muscles on Barold's face twitched, and after glancing at Donn depressedly, he said in a rough voice with a stiff neck: "God Lightning is old, I have given it a few wives to retire and raise children!" You don't need it to win you! β
"Hah! I don't know who lost last time and jumped straight to my feet, and almost slaughtered him on the spot-" Lola's voice stopped abruptly, and looked at Barold suspiciously, "-Anyway, you shouldn't really slaughter it when you go back, right?" β
"How is that possible!"
Barold was annoyed and said, "Less nonsense! Let's go! β
"Wait a minute, the rules are going to change this year."
Lola waved her hand and stopped the contestants, saying: "The rules of previous years are too simple, this year new rules are added, on the way to the end of the turnaround, each contestant also needs to cross the bottom of the abyss to collect magic stones, each magic stone can add an extra point, which will be counted in the final score." β
After a pause, Lola continued: "But in order to prevent someone from maliciously swiping points, the scores of the collected magic stones are decreasing in order, the first place is recorded as the full amount, the second place is counted as ninety percent, the third place is counted as eighty percent, and so on, and the last place is not scored. β
"Shhhh It's all about you! β
Barod was very dissatisfied, if this year's queen was still Lorraine, his pressure would not be so great, Lorraine was young after all, not so many eyes, it was effective to make some effective plans for her, but Lola was different, she was too cunning.
"If it doesn't make sense, then get ready to start!"
Lola sat down leisurely on the prepared stone chair, snapped her fingers, and the maid behind her immediately leaned in and began to massage her shoulders.
Her unassuming queenly posture makes Fiona very envious, what girl doesn't envy the queen?
There are five contestants on each side, all of whom are hand-picked by the clan, and since they can't use magic in the Abyss, being physically fit is the first requirement - and in this regard, the Red Grotto Dwarves have a natural advantage.
Dwarves are natural warriors, while dark elves are more inclined to use spells to aid in combat.
But now, the dwarves' magical beasts have been killed by Tang En all at once, and the new magical beasts have not yet been completely domesticated, and the best magical beasts have not been screened out, so they are completely unable to give full play to the advantages of the dwarven warriors.
On the other hand, on the side of the dark elves, although their bodies are not as strong as the dwarven warriors, they are naturally dexterous, and they are light and complement the flying monsters, and they have an advantage in speed.
Throughout the tournament, the ratio of wins for the Dwarves and Dark Elves in the Red Grotto has been 3:7.
Well, maybe someone has already seen it.
That's right, this so-called Demon Abyss Competition, from the very beginning, was a big pit set up by the Dark Elf Queen, specifically to pit the dwarves of the Red Grotto.
The current Queen of the Dark Elves was a wizard, not only alleviating the advantages of both sides, giving a seemingly fair chance to compete on the same stage, but also giving the Dark Elves the maximum space to play their advantages, the dwarves of the Red Grotto have been pitted for so many years, and they still haven't figured out the problem here.
The occasional win was enough for them to celebrate for most of the year - unbeknownst to them, it was only the Dark Elves who had deliberately lost.
The contestants all rode the prepared beasts, and compared to the mounts of the dark elves, the monsters on the side of the dwarves in the red grotto obviously looked like parallel goods - they were restless on the ground, and they were full of fear of the abyss in front of them, they did not look like well-trained mounts at all, and they changed several times in a row, and finally Barod was also angry, and killed one of the most powerful gargoyles on the spot.
Then the other monsters were honest.
This, of course, caused Lola and the others to laugh at her, but Barod had already decided to break the jar and simply ignored them.
"All readyβgo!"
Ten players riding monsters roared and rushed into the abyss and swooped straight down! (To be continued.) )
