Just when Elise and others were in a dilemma, they did not realize that their every move was completely visible to Zhan En. At this moment, Zhan En was sitting on the throne. At first glance, it seemed that he was

He was closing his eyes and concentrating. In fact, at this moment, Zhan En had connected his spirit with the entire underground city. For him, there were no secrets here.

"Twenty snakemen, fifteen tieflings, eight vampires... Well, they all probably have elite level strength. The one named Elise should be a high-level mage. I didn't expect that there would be one."

For such a young high-level mage, I can’t say for sure..."

While tapping his fingers gently, the corners of Zhan's mouth raised slightly.

"Then, let's start a grand party."

In the end, the patrol chose to move forward. The stone wall blocking their retreat was too thick, and even Elise was not sure that it could be overcome. Of course, as a high-level mage, if Elise used

If you use all your strength, a mere wall will be nothing. But whether they will be buried together under it at that time is another question.

Because of this, everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue moving forward. However, at this moment, their mood was not as relaxed as it was at the beginning. This kind of trap driven by magic is too weird, and there are no warning signs before it is activated.

Even the experienced thieves couldn't detect the mystery of this trap, and they didn't even know where the trap area was. So everyone was cautious every step they took, and they were even more vigilant, for fear that the trap would suddenly be triggered inexplicably.

If it falls on oneself - that would be bad luck for eight lifetimes.

Now they just hope to find some clues early, or find the hiding place of an enemy. At least this way they have a clear goal and will not be confused about what to do now.

Unfortunately, things went counterproductive.

"Damn, we've been walking for almost an hour!!"

Holding the sword tightly in his hand, the snake captain looked livid. If he hadn't been worried about the traps that might be everywhere, he would have jumped up in anger. They had been walking along this road for so long, and the result was still

There was nothing, except tunnels or tunnels, and he was wandering around with no clue at all. If he continued like this, he felt like he was going crazy!

Hearing this, Elise also frowned slightly, but unlike the snake captain, she noticed another anomaly - Elise had been keenly aware of everything on the ground she walked along.

The stone slabs paved were all of the same style, which indicated that there should be man-made buildings nearby. But after walking for so long, Elise did not see any traces of man-made buildings except for the traps she had launched before.

What's going on?

Of course, Elise doesn't understand that this is one of the most important features of Zhan's dungeon system - only the land that has been "trodden down" by goblins will be officially recognized as within the scope of the dungeon.

.After being recognized by the system, the dungeons within the sphere of influence can draw magic power from the earth for the use of the dungeon master. Therefore, the larger the scope of the dungeon and the wider the influence, the higher the upper limit of magic power Zhan En can possess.

, the faster the recovery speed, the wider the exploration range.

Because of this, in the past few months since arriving in the Underdark, Zhan En did nothing else but let the goblins "pave" all the explorable land in all directions. Regardless of whether there are buildings or not, at least

First occupy the place. As long as the land is obtained, then everything else is a trivial matter and not worth worrying about. Anyway, the sphere of influence does not cost anything, but it can also absorb magic power. This kind of business with no capital and huge profits will not be done in vain.

It is precisely because of this abnormal development that although Zhan's underground city occupies an entire land the size of a surface palace, in fact he actually uses less than one-tenth of it. No wonder Elise would

Calculation error.

Not only that, but what makes Elise most uneasy is that the people in the patrol are becoming more and more impatient. It’s no wonder that they have walked for so long and found nothing. Moreover, they must always be on guard against the possibility that they are right next to them.

The traps launched around them made the elites from Black Onyx City feel extremely depressed. Many of them were ruthless characters who had faced off against the three underground forces for Black Onyx City. When had they ever encountered such a thing?

It would be fine if there was a clear enemy, but now neither the enemy nor the trap can be found, leaving them with nowhere to vent their energy, making these elites almost furious!!

While these elites were moving forward cautiously, Zhan was also controlling his summons, crawling silently in the gaps of the dark tunnel, staring vigilantly at the prey in front of him.

"I didn't realize that these guys are quite difficult to deal with."

Looking at the complete formation of the Black Onyx Stone City patrol team in front of him, Zhan En secretly felt that it was a bit tricky. He was also aware of the anxious atmosphere among the patrol team. But Zhan En did not expect that although these people were very anxious, they could

However, he was still very strict and alert in everything he did. There was no scene like a big quarrel and then parting ways because of differences between them - if that really happened, it would be much easier for Zhan to deal with.

But it's different now. The opponent has a high-level mage, and the others are not good at it. The alien is good at stabbing in the back, and it's still not strong enough in frontal combat - but this is not a problem. The alien's special skill has an [autonomous evolution].

This means that as long as it absorbs enough race genes, it can gain the advantages of that race. As long as Zhan can control the alien to defeat enough enemies, then it can evolve into a mege water arrow turtle!

Something seems wrong?

Forget it, now is not the time to worry about such trivial matters.

Thinking of this, Zhan En shook his head and threw the sudden thoughts out of his mind, and then he continued to stare at the prey in front of him.

Next, comes the key.

The patrol stopped.

This is not because there is no passage in front of them. On the contrary, in front of them at this moment, there are three dark holes waiting for the arrival of some entrants who do not know whether to live or die.

"Hey, half-breed bastard, how's it going?"

The snake captain stared at the tiefling who was investigating in front of him.

"Which way should we go?"

"How do I know, idiot...I'm watching...!!"

At this moment, the tiefling also had a headache on his face, and he didn't even listen to the snake-man captain's mocking words. Even a fool could see that only one of the three passages in front of him was safe, and the other two were definitely inaccessible.

The trap of returning. But now, how to choose has become a big problem before everyone.

"Can't you even see this? Wherever there are traces of underground lizards walking, why don't we just go there?"

"Do you think I don't understand? Idiot?!!"

Hearing the serpent captain's continuous taunts, the tiefling finally couldn't help but jump up and roared.

"The problem is, these three cave entrances now have traces of underground lizard movements. Can you tell which way we can take?!!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Elise had to bite the bullet and come out to smooth things over.

"That...can we judge from the traces of weight and time...?"

"I think so too, Miss."

After hearing Elise's words, the tiefling's angry pale face finally looked much better. But soon, he spread his hands helplessly.

"But according to our investigation just now, the opponent divided the group of underground lizards into three equal groups and entered three cave entrances respectively. Judging from the weight-bearing traces, there is no sign that the goods have been replaced..."

After all the talk, Elise had nothing to do.

"No matter what, we have to walk anyway, so I decided to go to the left!!"

The snake captain waved his sword angrily, and then he stared at Elise with wide eyes.

"Anyway, these three roads either all lead to where that damn bastard is, or only one is a way to survive. No matter what, we have to give it a try!"

"I don't think there's any need to be in such a hurry."

Facing the words of the snake-man captain, Elise was uncharacteristically and waved her hand with a serious expression.

"Everyone is very anxious now. If something happens again at this juncture, our situation will only get worse." After saying this, Elise frowned, and her timid little face turned into a vague expression.

Yue had a somewhat majestic air.

"I suggest that everyone send one person each, in groups of three, to explore the three caves respectively. This is the best way."

Upon hearing this, the snake captain and the tiefling were both stunned, but then they looked at Elise with a hint of admiration in their eyes.

Indeed, Elise's suggestion sounds quite cruel. It is clearly asking people to detect mines, and some of them will definitely not come back. But this is what a well-disciplined military team should have. They are not taking risks for money.

Adventurers, but the soldiers and guards who protect Black Onyx City. For them, as long as they can protect their hometown and devote their lives, what's the difficulty?

Elise's attitude was a little vague before, which made other people more or less resentful of this eldest lady. Now when they heard that she actually made such a suggestion, they immediately looked up to her. Indeed, they are the most important thing now.

What is important is to search for where the Black Onyx City caravan went. This is the key point!

"I agree with the eldest lady!"

"I agree too."

Soon, the snake captain and tiefling agreed with Elise's suggestion, and then they quickly selected their personal guards and entered three tunnels respectively.

Seeing this scene, Zhan En also smiled.

Next, it’s time to take action yourself!
Chapter completed!
