Chapter 123 Exploring the Underdark for the First Time

Eden's six-man team passed through the winding passage and arrived underground at a depth of more than forty meters.

"Captain, that should be the teleportation array." A team member said, pointing to the teleportation array emitting dark light in the distance.

"After checking the equipment for the last time, no one knows what will happen next. We can only rely on ourselves."

Eden stopped and said solemnly to his team members.

Everyone nodded heavily, wrapped their faces with cotton cloth, leaving only their eyes, and then applied deodorizing liquid on their cotton clothes, pulled out the dagger assigned to them by the lord before leaving, and held it tightly in their hands.

Seeing that all his team members were ready, Yiden stepped forward and pushed a button-like device next to him.

The next moment, the teleportation array was activated, emitting brilliant brilliance.

"Set off."

Eden entered the teleportation area first, followed by the other five.

After three minutes, the micro teleportation array closed and entered a silent state, waiting to be turned on next time.

……

Darkness, depression, and fear are their first impressions of the Underdark.

Although there were weak illumination provided by unknown glowing mushrooms around them, the six people coming from the surface could only barely see the road clearly.

"Harv, Kuru, you two stay here to guard the teleportation array and respond to us at any time."

"Yes, captain." The two low-level bronze warriors nodded and accepted the task.

They are the two weakest among the six-person team, so staying to guard this place is the best choice.

Then, the other three followed Eden, carefully entered the long, dark passage, and officially began to explore the dark area.

Every time he takes a step forward, Eden will always pay attention to his surroundings to see if any aliens, monsters or other creatures will suddenly appear.

Suddenly, Eden found that there were tree roots in front of him. He gestured for his team members to stop, and slowly climbed to the entrance of the cave. He found that there was a wide cave outside, and a battle was taking place at this moment.

"Click"

A big snake bit off half of the gray dwarf's body and swallowed it in its belly.

A tall gray dwarf pointed at the big snake and cursed, with unintelligible words bursting out of his mouth, while waving his whip to drive his men to attack.

"*****"

"Hiss"

"Pfft"

A spear pierced the snake's scales and stabbed hard into its body.

"S-"

The next moment, several gray dwarves were swept away by the tail of the big snake, and were hit heavily among the rocks. They didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

"***"

The ensuing battle was unexpected. The big snake dragged its seriously injured body and tried its best to kill all the remaining dozen gray dwarves, and finally fell down ten meters away from the cave entrance.

Eden looked at the monster with a ferocious face, held his breath and concentrated, and continued to lie down at the entrance of the cave, using the tiny gap in the shelter to observe the situation outside, not daring to act rashly.

He didn't know if the big snake outside was pretending to be dead, or if those gray dwarves would have reinforcements coming.

Sure enough, every few minutes, a few gray dwarves drove hundreds of goblins to come here, collect the bodies of their companions, and at the same time carry the body of the big snake back to their tribe.

Just when Iden thought that this group of people was about to leave, several large spiders suddenly broke out and eliminated the gray dwarves in three strikes. The remaining goblins lost their masters and fled here quickly.

Under unexpected circumstances, the final winners were these giant spiders.

After several large spiders had eaten and drank enough, they quietly hid around and lurked, waiting for the next wave of prey to appear.

Seeing this, Eden could only wave his men to retreat and explore another branch of the road they came from.

In order to avoid being discovered by the underground natives, several people could only rely on text to communicate.

"The situation is very dangerous. With our strength, we can only explore a few surrounding passages at most." Eden wrote what he wanted to express on the paper and described it to several others.

When the three of them saw this, they nodded in agreement.

Even if they didn't directly observe the battlefield just now, hearing various movements and sounds was enough to make people's hair stand on end.

After all, this is not the ground. The visual range is large, and some dangers can be predicted in advance.

You don't know how deep underground, every step you take, there may be enemies ambushing you, and these are still unobservable.

After the four people reached a consensus, they returned to the nearest branch and continued exploring.

In the next six days, the four of them explored the passages leading to other caves starting from the teleportation array.

Perhaps because the goblins in the past worked closely, some shields were made at the ends of these passages to avoid being discovered by other creatures.

In this short period of time, the four of Eden discovered no less than ten battles. In addition to the gray dwarves, goblins, dwarfs and dark elves that they knew about in advance before setting off, there were many more that they had never seen before. past monster.

The most recent time, they were almost discovered by a group of dark elves. If they hadn't been covered in deodorant potion and had taken the green turtle potion in advance, a potion that could minimize the vitality, as long as they stayed still, the others would It looks like a dead thing.

Near the teleportation array, six people sealed the entrance to the cave, lit torches, and began to summarize the reconnaissance situation.

Seeing the long-lost light, the vanguard team was so fascinated.

Things that are usually within reach are so luxurious in this bottomless underground.

"Starting from the teleportation array, there are a total of five main passages, and each passage has three to six branch roads. There are a total of twenty-one roads, and six of them are blocked by rolling mud and rocks. This way There are only fifteen passages left. These fifteen passages lead to fifteen underground caves."

"Of these fifteen passages, the shortest is passage No. 6, which is more than a thousand meters long. The longest one is passage No. 13, which is six kilometers long."

"Among them, Cave No. 9, which we named Passage No. 9, leads to, is the most dangerous."

Eden thought of the dark elf so close at hand and couldn't help but feel happy, otherwise they would have to be found in that hellish place.

"Captain, do you still want to explore next?" a team member asked.

Eden looked around, the other five people were waiting for their decision.

In his heart, he really wanted to capture an underground creature and bring it back to the surface for interrogation and obtain more information.

But once it is discovered, this teleportation array will definitely be known to the other party, and it may directly fall into someone else's pot next time.

After some decisions, Eden said in a deep voice: "This mission is over. We are too weak. If we explore further and accidentally fall into the hands of the underground natives, it is inevitable that the other party does not have an evil mage who is proficient in soul interrogation. We cannot because of our Action led to the discovery of this teleportation array."

The other five people were obviously relieved when they heard this.

Afterwards, Eden activated the teleportation array, and six people entered it one after another, ending their trip to the Underdark.
