Vol 21 Chapter 199: Find the target

"She is a senior member of the Dark Council. M"
"What is the Dark Council?" Cristina asked in confusion.
"The Dark Council is a religious organization that is shared by both the underground and the above-ground world. Its main body is a variety of biological clusters from the underground world, mainly black elves. The original Dark Council should be part of the Dark Temple, but it is like The European Light Temple is divided into the Light Temple Orthodox Church and the New Light Temple. The Dark Temple has had a similar split event a long time ago, but unlike the Light Temple, the Dark Temple splits people rather than gods. "
"You mean that the Dark Council is really just another branch of the God of Darkness faith group." Poursefone asked.
"Originally yes, but because of the disconnection from the Lord of Darkness after classification, and the addition of a large number of new races after being forced to go underground, the organizational structure and even the teachings of the Dark Judgement have changed dramatically. The current darkness In fact, the council cannot be said to be a purely religious organization. She is more like a military organization with religion as its link. In fact, she no longer believes in any actual deities, but instead believes in some kind of power. .According to the investigation of the Dark Council by the Temple of Darkness, the current Dark Council is actually a political organization under the banner of faith. It can also be understood as a loose union of religious nations. "
"If the Dark Council is a religious country, what's going on with the Black Elf country?" Kristina asked.
"The country of the black elves is a reading country. There is no problem with this. But as I said just now, this dark parliament is equivalent to a loose alliance of religious countries. Its essence is still a large-scale military alliance. It ’s just a religious jacket. The Black Elf nation is an important part of it. The one we saved is likely to have some special status in the Black Elf Empire, so it will become a senior member of the Dark Council. She The status of a parliamentarian should be a fixed seat from the Black Elf Empire. But the fact that she can obtain such a seat indicates her power in the Black Elf Empire. Unfortunately, there is no information about her identity in the Empire. If you need me, I can try to read some more forward. "
I nodded and said, "Let's continue. I want to know her exact identity, this is very useful for us."
Ling nodded and started to read the information. As a result, Ling's finger just pressed the forehead of the black elf, and the other person suddenly jumped up from the ground and yelled, "Don't come ... Everyone, run ..."
The awakened black elf first shouted in panic, then suddenly found that the surrounding conditions were not her previous state, but after suddenly sniffing her nose, she suddenly smelled that kind of odor, so she jumped up and shouted: "Quickly Run, the rotten monster is coming! "
"Don't worry, the monster that looks like a bunch of rotten leaves has been killed by us," said Persefone, stopping the frightened black elf in front of him.
The black elf who was blocked first glanced at Porsefogne in horror, then turned around to see us, and then his eyes closed and dizzy.
"I depend, what is this?" Kristina asked, "What can we do now?"
"Take her along for the time being, and our priority must not be delayed. The status of this black elf is not ordinary, and it can be used as a bargaining chip to exchange hostages with each other."
"That makes sense," Kristina said. "Let's go to the princess of the White Elf now."
"That being the case, let's continue our search."
For the time being Ling returned to the training space, re-summoned Bai Lang and released the night shadow at the same time. Throw that black elf princess on the back of Night Shadow, and then we continue our search.
After advancing a few kilometers along this cave-like, honeycomb-like passage, we turned out of a fork and then walked about five or six kilometers in a pile of messy passages. After the front passage was over, we finally entered a vast underground world.
Although it is an underground world, the environment here is not much different from the ground. There is a large red luminous cloud above the cave, just like the sun, just because the cloud almost covers the entire ceiling of this huge underground world, so there is basically no such thing as a shadow here. After all, the light source The area is too large, the effect is the same as the shadowless lamp on the operating table of the hospital, there is no shadow area.
Because there is a suitable light source above the head, there will naturally be plants on the ground. And the plants here are not only as lush and dense as the ground, but also particularly dense. The entrance to this underground world was much higher than the ground, so we were fortunate to see the general situation near here, but after we got down to the ground, it was completely engulfed by the jungle. There are huge and dense plants all around. Even if there is such a large area of ​​light above the head, there is almost no light directly projected from the ground below. Only a trace of light projected from the leaves of the plant can barely guarantee a little light That's it.
Kristina is obviously very dissatisfied with this lush vegetation environment, so she took the initiative to open the road, and it is a way of destroying the surname, which is to go forward in front of a shield of fire element, usually All plants that came into contact with the shield were burned to ashes.
Although the method is a bit violent, thanks to this violent way of opening, we can move a lot faster, after all, the entire front has been burned into a passage, which will be a problem if we can't get up soon.
After moving some distance in the forest, we found that this underground world is strange, that is, we have walked so far without even seeing an animal. Not only are there no large animals, not even some small creatures, including insects. This phenomenon is very abnormal. Such a large woodland can't even see a worm, why can't it be justified?
Although it is strange why there are only plants and no other creatures in this place, but there is no danger anyway, so we will investigate and follow the odor signal all the way forward. After almost three or four kilometers into the woodland, Bai Lang suddenly listened, and then said to me, "Master, I think we are close to the goal."
After hearing Bailang's words, Kristina put away the previous shield of fire elements. Although she didn't like this lush vegetation environment, she was an elite player anyway, and she still had some feelings about this environment. understand. It used to be far away, but now it's close to the target. Of course, it should be hidden. Of course, it is better not to use magic.
Without Kristina's Fire Shield, our propulsion speed naturally slowed down, and because the distance was close, we did not dare to go too fast, and we were very careful in each step. Of course, we are only careful not to make too much noise, not to be afraid of suddenly hitting the enemy. In fact, after Bailang reminded us to approach the target, I had spilled a large group of ghost worms and sent Bailang and darts to the front to explore the way for us. With so many investigative units, we certainly don't have to worry about sudden enemies.
So carefully proceeded for about two kilometers, Bai Lang and darts in front of the investigation suddenly reported to me the target at the same time. I quickly switched to Bailang's visual signal, and then saw through Bailang's eyes, not far ahead, on the edge of this underground world, with a small hole in a cave wall. Although there are many plants covering the entrance of the cave, clear road marks are still left on the ground, which means that people often come in and go out of this place, so they stepped on a road on the ground.
After confirming the exact location of the target, I let the ghost worms scatter out and searched the environment near the entrance of the cave, and it turned out that there was no dark whistle or something near the entrance of the cave. Since the other party did not set up a secret whistle, it means that they did not expect anyone to come here to rescue the hostages, which saved us a lot of trouble.
Since there are no guards around, we no longer need to proceed carefully and hurried to the cave entrance to meet them with Bailang, and then began to instruct the ghost worms to penetrate into the cave. According to the information obtained by Bai Lang's nose, the hostages we are looking for should all be in this hole, and the hole should not be deep.
As the first batch of reconnaissance units, Ghost Worm quickly climbed into the tunnel along the top of the cave entrance ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Because I was worried about being discovered by the other party, I only sent two Ghost Worms and took everything else away. stand up.
By sharing vision, I can clearly see the picture seen by the ghost. The initial part of the entrance was nothing special, and some roots of the arabesque plant existed on this wall. After going deep for about five meters, there was a small curve, and immediately after turning, a door appeared in the vision of the phantom.
This door is not made of advanced materials, it is just a simple wooden door, but it looks quite thick. Of course, no matter how thick the wood is in the face of our destructive power, it is dregs. However, it is now reconnaissance and cannot be destroyed by violence. After all, we are performing rescue missions. If the other party threatens us with hostages, it will be difficult.
Although this door cannot be destroyed, Ghost Worms can transform themselves into Ghost Form, which means they can penetrate walls. It's just a door that can't stop my ghost worm.
Since there is a door in this place, it means that there are people in it, so I don't dare to let the phantom worms infiltrate with fanfare, but only send a phantom worm along the top of the passage through the wooden door to enter the room, and as the phantom worms penetrate The door regained vision, but I was stunned by the inside.
