Chapter 711: Elf...never give up!

The letter was unsigned, just titled and titled.

The purpose here is for the "Watchers" to see.

The magic used to write this letter is very particular. If it is forcibly broken, it will automatically burn.

It seems to have adopted some secret method of the night elves.

However, Zong Shen does not need to forcefully crack the letter, because he has a strategy module, and any concealment, cover-up, or confusion cannot hide from the strategy module's exploration.

In this case, Zong Shen successfully obtained the information in the letter.

Judging from the description in the letter, it seems that Azshara's quadrangle barracks sank and was buried underground on its own initiative.

Even before the fall of Azshara, the elves had plans in place.

This is what is called preparing for a rainy day. As a giant city of the elves, they have stored a batch of materials in the sewers in advance to build bunkers and rebel camps in the mines.

Moreover, when building the city's sewers, preparations were made in advance to connect the northern mountains and forests to the mines in the northeast. It must be said that they are still skilled.

This also laid the foundation for the Allied forces to launch a counterattack later.

In fact, Azshara, as a huge elven city, may not be as popular as the huge city of the human kingdom that is now experiencing crazy reproduction, but it at least has millions of soldiers and civilians.

Excluding those soldiers and civilians who died in the attack, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, civilians and coalition forces became sacrifices to the devil and were buried in the [Bone Burial Ground].

This number is still very cruel, but compared to the total number of soldiers and civilians in Azshara, it is still acceptable.

Therefore, it also shows that Azshara did not let the devil invade and slaughter her like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Although the blood-burning demon is menacing and powerful, Azshara is not weak.

More soldiers and civilians should have completed their evacuation ahead of schedule through Azshara's sewers.

After Zong Shen read the contents of the letter, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

He put the letter away, maybe it would be of some use in the future.

With [Chimera Roost] as the center point, the surrounding ruins and buildings have been cleared.

The relevant harvests and items were all put into [Pascal Contract's Big Bag (Gold)] by Zong Shen, leaving them to be sorted and sorted after a smooth return.

Now it's time to enter the sewers of Azshara.

Before that, you need to prepare your team first, because you may encounter a battle after entering the sewer.

Cavalry warriors were not suitable to enter, so the wolf cavalry could only return to the ground.

At this time, after several hours of excavation and exploration, the sky had darkened, but it was not completely dark. There was still a dim twilight shining on the earth.

The poisonous mist in the poison swamp lost the support of [Advanced Poison Quenching Beads (Orange)] and quickly dissipated under the natural air flow. It was not known whether Lord Leng Touqing would come over.

Thinking about it, it shouldn't be possible, after all, Xiao Heizi's record is there.

In half a day, hundreds of lords and their accompanying warriors were slaughtered, a total of four to five thousand people!

Absolutely an out-and-out murderer!

This place has also become a nightmare in the hearts of most lords in the area.

And everyone knows that the black dragon has been tamed by Zong Shen, and the Dragon Nest and Poison Swamp have also been searched. Without clear interests, no one will come here to cause trouble.

Zong Shen stayed in the excavated underground hall and called Vereesa, Zoe Babbitt and the great adventurer ghost Jacques Picard.

Since this is a risky operation, Zoe's wish must be fulfilled.

As for the accompanying soldiers, Zong Shen did not plan to bring too many.

First, a small team of Lion Guard Knights were mobilized. They were equipped with shield swords and could dismount and fight on foot to act as shield warriors. They also had the attributes of fifth-level warriors.

Overall, it is more useful than the third level [Dragon Transformed Spear and Shield Warrior].

Then came the shooter. He asked the two sisters Madeline and Mapel to bring down a small team of dragonborn rangers. Two fourth-level rangers and twelve third-level rangers were enough to maintain a certain degree of long-range attack strength.

Finally, there are the mages. Favid and the Wind God's Favored Caniggia, who have been promoted to heroes, are indispensable. Secondly, Zong Shen has deployed six third-level [Fire Mage] and two third-level [Necromancer]. Mage], two [Water Mage], and three [Holy Light Priests] accompanied them.

Tasia and Aysia did not come for this operation because Zong Shen saw that both of them were a little weak in the legs.

Even a good ox can't stand plowing the land repeatedly...

Excessive indulgence and long-term abstinence have different effects.

After spending more than ten minutes preparing the team, Zong Shen took out the [Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword (Gold)], held it with one hand and punched it on the ground, standing next to the gate of Azshara's sewer.

As far as he knew, there was more than one underground sewer gate in Azshara.

There is also a place underneath the former rogue camp.

Looking back now, perhaps Azshara's downfall was partly subjective.

The second is the change of terrain caused by the changes of time and vicissitudes of life.

In other words, before Azshara completely fell, the elves chose to actively bury the city and the land.

Zong Shen immersed himself in searching the storage compartment and took out a silver-white rune key.

The workmanship of this key is quite good, and occasionally there will be a flash of silvery white light.

Yes, this thing is an item he has obtained for a long time.

[Azshara Gate Key (Purple)]

This thing claims to be able to open all the rune gates in Azshara's sewers!

Now it’s time to test the results!

The surface of this underground gate was covered with thick mud. Zong Shen specially asked the water mage to fire several water arrows to clean it before he found the keyhole.

At this moment, the strength and properties of the gate were displayed in front of his sight.

【Azshara Sewer Gate XII】

[Sturdiness value: 972365/1000000+150000]

[Building Armor: 205+55]

[Building magic resistance: 200+55]

[Defense effect: The shelter of the Well of Eternity (obtains 15% damage reduction effect, effective for any attack type)

The protection of the Golden Craftsman (sturdiness increased by 150,000, double resistance increased by 55 points)]

(The Azshara Sewer Gate, which has been reinforced many times and blessed by the Well of Eternity, is very strong and difficult to destroy. The key in your hand is only suitable for use before the gate is reinforced.)

"Hiss, it's so hard!"

It seems that Azshara's underground gate rune should have been reinforced during its heyday. No corners were cut, and the effect is excellent. It is ten times stronger than the gate of the mountain bunker!

But what does the last sentence of the guide note mean?

"Only applicable until the ground gate is reinforced?"

Zong Shen suddenly felt something bad, but logically speaking, such a strong underground gate should not be able to be opened by a rare key. However, he also remembered that the guide notes once said that this thing can open the gate.

If the two are combined, wouldn't the strategy module be self-contradictory?

Or is it that the key can open it, but it cannot open it completely?

Thinking of this, Zong Shen took out a bucket of water and rinsed the keyhole first. After confirming that there was no blockage, he inserted the rune key in his hand into the small keyhole.

With a slight twist and without much effort, the axle in the ground gate was activated, and there was an obscure and harsh sound of metal friction.

After all, it is inevitable that things that have been silent for more than 10,000 years will be a little obscure.

"Crack!"

After the sound of metal friction continued for a minute or two, there was suddenly a crisp sound.

However, the gate did not open. It seemed that the rune key was indeed a bit weak.

The key was automatically ejected, and a light curtain was projected from the keyhole.

It is divided into nine squares, all of which are the pattern of a big tree. It looks a bit like the nine-square pattern password commonly seen on mobile phones on earth.

This step should be a preparatory measure after the ground gate is reinforced.

All the gates cannot be controlled by a rune key. If they fall into the hands of the devil, then the gates will be useless no matter how strong they are. Therefore, a second or even a third opening method must be set up.

Just when Zong Shen was about to ask about the strategy module, Vereesa slowly walked over from behind.

"Sir, let me try."

"I still have memories of what happened here."

"This is the warning issued by the great prophet of the stars and moon after receiving the revelation from the moon god."

"At that time, all elven cities had carried out backup plans to extend and strengthen their sewer systems, including underground gates, and had stocked up on supplies ten years in advance."

"It turns out that the prophecy is correct. It was a warning from God!"

Vereesa said softly with a look of reminiscence on her face.

She belongs to the high elves and believes in being the sun god rather than the moon god. However, they are essentially a branch of the ancient night elves. In the endless continent, all elves are united together and are collectively called the elves.

Except for the half-elves who live in the ocean, namely Naga.

So Vereesa also had a pious tone and attitude towards the Moon Goddess.

Her words contained a lot of information, which meant that a prophet had received revelations and warnings from the Moon God ten years before the dimensional invasion. Therefore, everyone made some preparations in advance...

This made Zong Tian a little curious about the gods believed by the indigenous people of the Endless Continent.

He already knows that this is a world where multiple dimensions coexist, and beyond the dimensions is the star realm full of chaos and arcane energy.

So are the gods based in a certain dimension, or do they live in the astral world?

According to Cthulhu’s outer gods, it seems to be the former.

But once you become a god, you have the qualifications to travel in the star world.

Interpreted from this perspective, perhaps God is some kind of creature that is from another dimension but transcends it.

Since the Moon God can issue warnings or "oracles" against dimensional invasions, does that mean that the Moon God is the "lord" who clears the level?

A different perspective on this endless game?

Zong Shen didn't know all of this, and because it was too involved, even the strategy module wouldn't tell him the answer. He could only accumulate clues bit by bit, and gradually gain insight into the truth and answers to the matter.

"Then do you know how to open the ground gate?"

Zong Shen turned to look at Vereesa, and she nodded calmly.

"Very good, then come and try it."

Seeing that Vereesa had a solution, Zong Shen took the initiative to give up his position and stepped aside with the big sword in hand.

Vereesa walked to the light curtain, stretched out her finger and drew it for half a minute, drawing an extremely complex nine-square grid pattern.

After the drawing was completed, the light curtain flashed and turned into an eyeball, projecting a light curtain that swept over Vereesa's eyes and body.

After sweeping across it more than a dozen times, the light curtain disappeared, and a smart voice came.

"Welcome, Your Excellency Vereesa, Commander of the Silver Covenant Legion."

Zong Shen on the side opened his mouth slightly and was surprised. This thing turned out to be somewhat intelligent.

The sound of metal riveting appeared again, and the internal gears and door shafts rotated. The gate first rotated 90° counterclockwise, made a "click" sound, then rotated 180° clockwise, and then slowly separated towards both sides, revealing Toothed card slot.

As the ground gate opened, the dirt and dust accumulated for countless years fell from the gap.

Zong Shen looked at this strong and safe underground gate and thought about installing one for his own fortress...

After the ground gate was opened, a tubular passage sloping downward was revealed.

Many people may think that if I can't open the door, I can smash the wall, but the thickness and material of this passage are exactly the same as the gate, and it extends for dozens of meters, entering deeper into the bottom layer.

The entire Azshara sewer has also been reinforced and is completely at the level of an underground shelter. Even in the cruel dimensional war, there was only a slight collapse.

So compared to the mountain bunker, Azshara's city sewers are stronger!

In addition to the gates and passages, there are also independently reinforced warehouses and refuge rooms in the sewers, which is quite thoughtful!

The passage is still very dry, with no trace of underground moisture.

In addition, there is an independent source of magic energy to provide power, including the gate and the rune lights that light up automatically after entering the passage.

It is said that someone from Zhenzong is really attracted to Azshara Sewer.

He can take the lead in clearing himself out as a hidden underground shelter and reserve center!

Even the blood-burning demons can't be defeated here, let alone those lords.

However, according to his estimation, the Bone Burial Ground lies in the north and is hundreds of meters underground. It is unknown whether it is connected to the Azshara sewer.

You must know that although the entire sewer has been reinforced, the mines and mountain bunkers connected to it were urgently built after the war, and the quality of the two is not the same.

Then the Burning Blood Demon's construction of the Bone Burial Ground should have another purpose besides preventing the ancient trees that resisted the coalition forces from taking root. After all, Zong Shen had also been to the Bone Burial Ground.

The bunker that goes hundreds of meters underground is deeper than the sewer, reaching a mine-level depth.

It cannot be ruled out that it was an attempt by the Burning Blood Demon to penetrate Azshara's sewer system.

The specific situation will not be known until Zong Shen and the others enter the sewer.

Slogan-like words were written intermittently on the sloping tunnel in Elvish.

Vereesa kept watching silently, her eyes very complicated.

Zong Shen also understood the words left by these ancient elves through the translation of the strategy module.

"In the name of the Well of Eternity...the World Tree..."

"Elves...never say never!"
