Chapter 1241: Underdark (Part 4)



Finally escaped!!

After making sure that there was no one behind him and that there were no dark monsters staring at him, the gray dwarf finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just kidding, he didn't want to get involved in any weird situation. Just as the gray dwarf said to Fang Zheng, the atmosphere in the dark elves was very strange recently. Although the dark elves have always been strange, this time the situation was obviously quite strange...

However, should we inform the dark elves?

Thinking of this, the gray dwarf couldn't help but look at the pocket on his waist, where there was a communication stone for him to communicate with the dark elves. If he could report this matter to the mistress of the first family, he would definitely be rewarded handsomely.

After all, it was impossible for him to stay out of it. Those beasts had their own caravan marks, and the dark elves could easily find problems from them. Unless he never went to that city again, there was no way he could avoid it.

No, it would be useless even if I didn't go to that city. The dark elves could easily hide their tracks, find me, and then torture me with their terrifying and cruel torture, making me want to live but not die...

Thinking of the painful punishment of the dark elves in the rumors, the gray dwarf couldn't help but tremble. Then he seemed to have made up his mind and reached to his waist, trying to take out the communication stone. However, at this moment, the gray dwarf's fingers touched a cloth bag.

If I remember correctly, this seems to be the reward given to me by the human just now?

The gray dwarf knocked on the cloth bag carefully, then slowly opened it. However, after seeing what was inside clearly, the gray dwarf fell into thought.

This is... an egg?

That’s right, the gray dwarf originally thought that there would be some precious gems or something like that in the cloth bag, but to his surprise, what was placed in the cloth bag was actually an egg?

What is going on?

Looking at the white egg, the gray dwarf didn't know what to say for a moment. However, at this moment, the giant egg in front of him suddenly began to shake, and then it broke with a crackling sound. After that, the broken eggshell bulged in front of the gray dwarf, and then sank.

What's inside this egg?

Out of curiosity, the gray dwarf stretched out his rough fingers and poked the broken eggshell.

“Crack!”

At this moment, the broken eggshell suddenly flew up, and then the gray dwarf saw a monster that looked like a palm suddenly flew out of the eggshell, pounced on his face, and hugged him tightly!

“Woo! Woo!!”

The gray dwarf struggled desperately, waving his hands and shaking his head, trying to do something. But the next moment he rolled off the beast, slammed his head against the wall next to him, and stopped moving.

Soon, the sticky dark yellow liquid flowed into the mouth of the gray dwarf through the mouthparts of the facehugger. As if it had its own body, it slowly went through the mouth and into the deep of the nose and ears. If the body of the gray dwarf could be cut open, it would be found that the dark yellow mucus slowly wrapped around the brain of the gray dwarf, and then began to twist and tremble, and merged with the brain of the gray dwarf...

“Huh…”

Fang Zheng opened his eyes and yawned.

As the only and most important means of transportation underground, the back of the earth beast is still very comfortable, but the boring journey has made everyone a little drowsy.

"This underground world is not interesting at all."

Walnut looked around with a shovel in his hand, then started to complain in dissatisfaction.

"I heard those mercenaries in the tavern say that the Underdark is extremely dangerous and full of all kinds of monsters, but we didn't encounter anything at all. Those guys are just bragging."

"Strictly speaking, it's not really bragging..."

Hearing Hu Tao's complaints, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes helplessly. Hu Tao couldn't notice it, but Fang Zheng could feel that the further he and his companions went down, the more strange creatures they encountered. It was just because Fang Zheng spread his dragon power that the monsters in the dark area didn't dare to come and cause trouble.

In fact, just twenty minutes ago, Fang Zheng sensed an underground worm passing through the ground twenty meters below their feet. If the underground worm had not sensed Fang Zheng's dragon power and chose to take a detour, Fang Zheng and his friends would have been forced to deal with a monster as big as the Empire State Building lying on the ground.

"Just be patient, Walnut."

Perhaps because she had been with Kurumi for a long enough time, Kurumi seemed very calm. She sat quietly on another ground beast and even had the leisure to take out a teapot from the shadows and pour herself a cup of black tea.

"Mr. Fang Zheng would not be idle to bring us to the underground for sightseeing. I think we will definitely enjoy enough excitement in the following journey."

"Dark elf, right? I'm looking forward to it too."

Hearing this, Xiao Hei also jumped up immediately.

"Big brother, we are going to break up the place, right? Then do you want me to go up first and give them a spiral sword to ascend to the sky?"

"Are you going to bury us in there too?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng sighed.

"This is underground, not on the surface. Have you ever thought that with a spiral sword we can even save the cremation step?"

"What should I do? If you want to fight, you must count me in."

"Don't worry, there are plenty of fights for you to fight. You may not even be able to win."

If it was true as Fang Zheng guessed, that the female spider was involved in this matter, then except for Fang Zheng, no one else would be a match for that female spider.

But at this moment, Homura Akemi suddenly turned her head and looked behind her.

"Owner."

"What's wrong?"

"Someone is coming."

As Homura Akemi spoke, soon everyone heard the sound of "dong dong dong" of hurried running coming from the back. Not long after, accompanied by the light emerging from the dark tunnel, the gray dwarf who was controlling the earth beast appeared in front of Fang Zheng and others again.

"Why are you back again?"

Looking at the gray dwarf in front of him, Walnut widened his eyes in confusion, and curiously stared at the gray dwarf who had returned to the team. The other party had just been very determined not to go to the dark elf city, and when he ran away just now, he also looked like he had survived a disaster. Why did he come back now?

“Ah, ahahahaha…”

Hearing Walnut's question, the gray dwarf smiled a little embarrassedly.

"In fact, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to deal with in that city. I wonder if you can let me go with you? After all, all my guards are dead, and I can't go back safely alone..."

"Of course not."

Looking at the gray dwarf who had returned, Fang Zheng smiled gently.

"In fact, we still hope that someone can introduce us to the local customs and culture there."

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, the gray dwarf lowered his head respectfully this time.

"It is my pleasure... Your Excellency."
