“...... Yes, Minister Grigory, there are indeed traces of large insect activity in the area around the imperial capital. ”

After more than ten days of travel, Gregory had successfully reached the northern city of 'Norton'.

This city was the most prosperous city in the north, and was also the front line of the northern front, and this was and is still a fortress city as the tail end of the railway, and the steam locomotive stayed firmly on this land.

The journey was not pretty, but it was dull enough, and after getting off the steam locomotive, the nobles did not first admire the speed of the steel beast, but ran into the city to enjoy the good sleep they had not seen for a long time.

They can't get a good night's sleep when they're sitting on a steam locomotive, they can't sleep at all unless they're extremely sleepy.

The car was so noisy that it wasn't a bump, but the strange but loud sound was enough to keep them awake - like the echo of the abyss, tormenting their fragile spirits.

Marshal Wenders had no complaints, after all, the speed of the steam locomotive was so fast that he couldn't help but admire it along the way.

From a strategic point of view, the steam locomotive is impeccable.

But it was this 'impeccable' steam locomotive that caused his two grandchildren to suffer all the way, and the two little ones, who were originally very naughty, now had no strength to toss, and even needed the old marshal to carry them to the high-end inn to rest, because they had fallen asleep when they had just gotten off the train.

This shows how flawed the steam locomotive was, but these flaws were not the reason for giving up the study of the steam locomotive, but on the contrary, because there were so many obvious reasons, Gregory's seemingly never-ending brain came up with many new ideas along the way.

Thanks to the 'Cai Hou paper', a new type of paper with a bad name, he had already carried a lot of it with him before he set off, and in the end, the first thing to run out of was ink.

After suffering all the way, now that he had finally reached the great city in the north, he was finally able to rest well, but Grigory could not rest.

He was too concerned about the news that the two people on the road had witnessed the 'large insects', but in the area around the imperial capital, it stands to reason that it should be impossible for this kind of creature with strong combat effectiveness to appear.

But it has appeared, and there is probably more than one!

In Gregory's memory, insects had always been very capable of reproducing, even large insects, and large insects were far more dangerous than small insects.

"We've found a lot of big bugs, and they're not of the same species!"

The subordinate in the mirror looked shocked, "We really can't imagine how these insects that don't have magical bloodlines can grow so big - except for the underground world, there is simply no way that there are so many huge insects on the surface!"

"Then we continued our search and found that there was a cave leading to the underground world at some unknown point, and the Fourth Praetorian Guard did not dare to go too deep and quickly withdrew, so we don't know what is going on down there. ”

Listening to his subordinates' reports, Grigory's brows furrowed.

That's all?

"Did you plug that cave?" asked Grigory in a deep voice.

His subordinates nodded, "Yes, we have blocked it, but there should be a lot of large insects running out, but we don't know much after that, this matter has been followed by the people of the Fourth Praetorian Guard." ”

After a moment of contemplation, Grigory asked, "Frontal, have you figured out why those large insects suddenly surged to the surface?"

The subordinate on the other side of the mirror was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No, Minister Gregory, we haven't been able to figure out the cause of this because the Fourth Praetorian Guard has taken over the matter. ”

Trouble!, Grigory took a deep breath.

He didn't know much about the underworld, and Calvin was more knowledgeable than he was.

But he knew that those bugs wouldn't come near the surface if it wasn't necessary!

There are passages to the Dark Lands within the Empire, and many nobles and chambers of commerce are doing business with the Drow Elves of the Dark Lands, but since the Duchy of Grief produced a cheap and beautiful silk, this trade route has gradually stopped.

On their way, they often encounter many unusually large insects blocking their way, and they either wait quietly for the bugs to leave, or they have to kill the bugs and escape.

Because there are so many large insects in the underground world that they can't be killed, there is no choice but to escape.

But even in the barren underground world, the insects would never go to the surface even if they killed each other, just as several caravans once encountered some large insects when they first entered the passage, but when they fled to the surface, the insects retreated.

I don't know what the bugs are afraid of, but they don't go to the surface.

This Gregory knew very well, this is what he saw in a travelogue, and it can be understood if others are not very clear.

But now the fact is that 'something is wrong', there must be something wrong!

When Gregory frowned and shared this information to his men, he was shocked to find him as if he had never known anything like this.

"Yes, yes!"

Speaking of this, Fangdel seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly said: "Minister Gregory, the Fourth Praetorian Guard found a 'Mind Flayer' when they were cleaning up those bugs, and they paid a lot of money to kill that Mind Flayer, but in the end they were dragged away by the Mind Flayer and seriously injured, for this reason, the officer who gave the order to encircle and suppress was also scolded by the commander!"

"Mind Flayer?!"

Gregory's eyes widened, and he asked, "Is there any connection between that Mind Flayer and those bugs?"

"No, no ......"

Fundall shook his head and said hesitantly, "On the contrary, it has something to do with the Bottomless Abyss - it controls a group of people, brainwashes them into demon worshippers, and conducts 'demon sacrifice' activities through these demon worshippers. The Fourth Praetorian Guard also discovered the traces of the demon worshippers when they were encircling and suppressing the big bugs, and caught those demon worshippers, but on the way, the priests who joined in the middle found that they had been brainwashed, and finally tracked down the body of the mind snatcher. ”

Hearing this, Gregory's hair immediately stood on end.

A terrifying creature, a Mind Flayer, once hovered around the Imperial Capital, even if it was last found far away from the Imperial Capital, but it was already within the Imperial Capital's rule!

"So what?"

Grigory asked in a deep voice, "What happened in the end?"

"Finally...... The Fourth Praetorian Guard reacted and chased after him, and found the body of the Mind Flayer, which was already cold at that time, and should have died while fleeing. Fondell replied truthfully.

However, his answer did not satisfy Gregory, but the original tiredness disappeared for a while, and his brain was clear.

Now Gregory is extremely conscious, and his brain, which was a little dull, is running at high speed again, but this is not what he wants!

Bugs, mind slayers, now the Drow Elves are missing, and if the Drow Elves also appear on the surface, then the three major forces of the underground world will gather.

If this is the case, then it means that something terrible has happened in the dark region, and they will rush to the surface in one surge.

It's still impossible to say for sure, but even if the Drow doesn't appear, what would have happened to the underworld......
