Chapter 1,250 The Sewers Of Dalaran [First Update]

While Antonidas was fighting the metal monster, Ye Ting and the others chased forward along the deep tunnel they excavated.

This tunnel doesn't look wide, it's only over two meters high.

From this point of view, the thief's stature is not much larger than that of an ordinary person.

However, it is also two or three meters wide, which can accommodate two people passing side by side.

During the excavation, the thieves apparently divided their work into two parts,

Yibo is responsible for digging,

A wave of earth is moved outward.

Like the previous potholes, the walls of the tunnel are also covered with white cobweb.

These cobwebs are not as sticky as ordinary cobwebs, and feel somewhat like dry nylon or silk. They are probably a special type specially designed to help with construction projects underneath.

In cobweb, Ye Ting can still roughly judge the file size and number of spider demons through the marks on the soil, as well as the time they left.

"The traces are still very obvious. It's still too late to catch up now."

Thinking of this, a hint of excitement appeared on his face.

As a result, the three of them moved faster and faster.

But soon, the cave came to an end.

Stepping out of the tunnel's exit, the three of them came to a wider tunnel.

The new tunnel is obviously much more formal than the original tunnel that looked like a temporary dig at first glance.

The stone tile floor is solid enough to be stepped on, and the walls and ceiling are paved with 11 stone tiles.

Slightly humid environment,

and a noticeable odor.

Although they were still deep in darkness, the three of them still felt something was wrong.

Finally, the words of the great magician Ansrem reveal the strangeness:

"Isn't this... the sewers of Dalaran?"

Yes.

They suddenly discovered that the tunnel the thieves dug through the treasure house was actually connected to the sewers of Dalaran.

In other words, the Scourge was actually able to send an army into Dalaran through the sewers.

This makes people feel chilling.

Obviously, all this shows that there are still flaws in Dalaran's defense system.

And that flaw is in the sewer.

This time it's the Scourge sending small groups of troops through the sewers to steal items.

What if they want to launch an attack through the sewers?

The possibility is scary to think about.

Especially Ansrem, the old man immediately blushed.

He himself is the person in charge of Dalaran's defense. If there are such obvious loopholes in Dalaran's defense, he is naturally to blame.

Modera and Ye Ting also looked at him with suspicion.

"I...I obviously paid special attention to the sewers!"

Being looked at like this, the bearded man dryly tried to explain.

"The magic barrier covers the part of the sewer. I carefully adjusted it at the time. I can guarantee that nothing can enter or leave the drain except sewage!"

Here I would like to explain it emphatically.

In fact, as early as the establishment of the magic barrier, magicians had considered hole attack, that is, digging tunnels to attack.

Therefore, the magic barrier only has the surface part.

Dalaran's magic barrier looks like a hemisphere covering the city, but it actually has an underground part.

In other words, the entire magic barrier is a complete ball.

Only this kind of magic barrier can protect the entire city 360 degrees without blind spots.

But this alone is not enough.

After all, it’s impossible for a city not to communicate with the outside world.

Definitely, the magic barrier does not block the air, which means that people in the magic barrier will not suffocate to death.

But what about other substances?

It is impossible to let the magic barrier open up the exchange of internal and external materials indiscriminately, and only block magic attacks. In this way, the enemy can make the people in the city look good just by using traditional slinging bows and arrows.

But you can’t stop everything.

Otherwise, after the barrier is opened, the entire wastewater in Dalaran will not be drained out, and within a few days the city will be so smelly that it will be uninhabitable.

Faced with this problem, the magician's response is to specialize individual parts of the magic barrier.

Just like sewers.

As a unique magician city, Dalaran has many special features, such as its huge and complex sewer system.

In addition to being a facility for Dalaran to discharge wastewater, Dalaran's sewers are also a place where the dark side of Dalaran is concentrated. Here, a large number of people rely on the magic city to survive, but cannot stay in the sun all year round. .

For example, the black market where all kinds of prohibited items are traded, the gangsters and stalkers who do all kinds of dirty work, the magicians, psychics, warlocks, poison alchemists who study forbidden spells, the bloody and cruel black boxing arena... 062512211 Feilu 221500130]

It can be said that the sewers of Dalaran are the inevitable shadow of the glorious magician city.

Everyone, from the senior officials of Dalaran to ordinary magicians, knows about the existence of all this.

But they don't care.

After all, even a magician who is dedicated to pursuing the mysteries of magic still has all kinds of dirty work to deal with.

The existence of the shadow does not prevent the magic barrier from protecting it, but even the magic barrier needs to leave a hole for sewage to enter and exit.

Definitely, even sewage will be instantly destroyed by powerful magic when it hits the magic barrier.

But that's pure waste.

Considering that the garbage discarded by the magicians into the sewers contains many magic potions and many other things containing arcane magic, which are difficult to filter, the magicians played a clever trick when designing the barrier.

In the part of the barrier that contacts the sewer, they designed a one-way screening:

Naturally, anything can flow out of the material exchange from the inside to the outside, while only ordinary river water and sea water are allowed to enter from the outside to the inside.

As for the soldiers of the Scourge Legion, they are not within the river and sea water, and will definitely not be let in.

At first glance, there is no big flaw in this design. 263

But Ye Ting still discovered a problem:

Magic is dead, people are alive.

The special design of the sewer does leave the possibility of cracking compared to other parts.

"Perhaps our enemy has disguised himself in some special way, allowing the magic barrier to think of it as 'river water'.

He rubbed his chin and analyzed,

"At least I can do this, like using shapeshifting to turn myself into a puddle of water or something..."

...If you say so, it's really possible. Ansrem's face turned dark when he heard this, "It's all my fault that I didn't arrange the defense system properly and left so many loopholes." If Dalaran is captured like this, I will be the biggest sinner..."

Seeing him starting to blame himself, Ye Ting hurriedly comforted him.

"Don't worry, it won't come to that." He patted the other party's shoulder, "If you want to deceive the magic barrier, it will cost money whether it is through magic or alchemy potions.

"It is not a simple magic to turn people into a puddle of water. Other methods are more complicated. Therefore, even if the Scourge Legion has this method, it cannot smuggle too many people at once.

"And with the quality of the undead, it is completely unthinkable to capture Dalaran with a small number of troops.

Ye Ting's persuasion made Ansrem feel much better.

Then he asked: "So, where is the sewer exit of Dalaran?"

"Lake Lordamere.".
