"Now I know why there are so many beholder zombies in the tomb."

Barn murmured: "That damn necromancer connected his tomb directly to the Underdark."

The Underdark is a name that is impossible to bypass for every adventurer who is committed to adventure on the continent of Faerûn, looking for treasures, and even writing his own legends.

The Underdark is composed of various tunnels and caves. It is another dark world beneath the surface world. Countless dark races live here and countless evil and strange beings are entrenched here.

Drow, gray dwarves, beholders, low-dwelling cuttlefish and even illithids, these creatures are absolutely not kind to adventurers.

"Perhaps we can return to the maze and find other ways out." Wanderer Maris hesitated for a moment and said, "It is too dangerous to explore the Underdark without a definite map."

"If we are unlucky, we may not be able to find an exit to the surface world in our lifetime. The greater possibility is to break into the city of drow or gray dwarves. Of course, there are also illithids."

Speaking of illithids, Maris shuddered: "I don't want to have that disgusting thing drilled into my brain and then be transformed into a mind flayer."

"Maybe it's not that bad." Cui Xi's eyes sparkled: "I've read in books that the Underdark is the earliest origin of life. There are countless secrets hidden here, including ancient ruins and lost treasures."

"We may even find remnants of the most prosperous kingdoms here."

"If all adventurers were as naive as you, those evil creatures would probably laugh their heads off." Barn said angrily: "Maris is right, our best choice now is to turn back."

He looked at Tang Sen and said: "Perhaps there are other ways for spellcasters from other worlds? For example, continue to use your path-finding tricks to find the exit of the nearby underdark area? Or directly use your ability to take us through the overhead

The earth?"

"My ability is not capable of such a thing." Tang Sen shook his head: "As for path finding, my method can indeed point us to the exit we need, but I can't guarantee that it won't take us through some dangerous areas.

."

"I know nothing about the Underdark."

At this time, the monk who had been silent suddenly said: "There is no need to go back to the maze."

"If I remember correctly, I have been to the Dark Territory in this area before." A nostalgic expression appeared on the monk's face: "At that time, I accepted a mission and went to the Dark Territory to rescue a noble who was kidnapped by gray dwarves.

, that was really a thrilling adventure."

"At that time, we set out from Neverwinter City, followed the main highway to Leilong Town, and then entered the Sword Mountains. By following the traces of the gray dwarves, we descended from a hidden cave to the Dark Territory, and successfully intercepted them.

At that time, we discovered that this area was a tunnel for the gray dwarves to transport slaves. Sorry, I have to mention the important point."

The monk paused: "The important point is that the tomb of the Necromancer is also in the Sword Mountain Range, and it is not far from the secret cave."

"So, can you find a way out?" Barn showed a surprised expression.

"I can give it a try." The monk said: "At least I can be sure that except for the gray dwarves, there is nothing more difficult around here."

Cui Xi let out a disappointed sigh.

"Then let's go!" Barn shouted: "I've had enough of this place!"

The Underdark Zone is located under the surface of the earth, and naturally there is no sunlight. Most of the areas here are in eternal darkness and are full of creatures that are not adapted to real light.

Glow rocks, luminous crystals and fluorescent moss, lichens, and fungi dimly illuminate some places. Tang Sen and others are lucky. There are a lot of fluorescent moss growing in the area they are currently in, although there is no way to illuminate too much.

details, but at least it can make people see the way forward clearly.

As for the light spell, in the dark realm, such a spell is equivalent to telling all unknown creatures around that there is living flesh and blood here.

The monk and the dwarf walked side by side at the front, with Cui Xi and Tang Sen in the middle, and the rogue at the back as always.

In fact, according to common sense of team allocation, the rogue should explore the path ahead. Unfortunately, Maris is a human rogue and does not have dark vision.

There was no sense of time in the darkness, and no one knew how long they had been walking in this strange place. Finally, unusual movement came from the darkness ahead.

Footsteps, angry scoldings, and strange calls from unknown creatures.

"It's the gray dwarf slave transport team." The monk slowed down his pace and whispered: "It seems that we are not far from the exit."

The group of people approached quietly and hid behind a rock pillar. With the faint light emitted by the fluorescent moss, everyone finally saw the gray dwarves.

The leader of the team is a huge beetle-like creature. It has a black and shiny shell. It makes a rattling sound when it walks. Acid is constantly dripping from its jaws, making the ground make a sizzling sound of corrosion.

Its hard curved corners are pulled by ropes and connected to the saddle made of wood and steel behind it. Two gray dwarves are sitting cross-legged on it, controlling the direction of the beetle.

"The gray dwarves look similar to dwarves." The rogue whispered.

As the rogue said, gray dwarves have the same short and stocky bodies and the same thick beards as dwarves. The difference is that gray dwarves' skin is more inclined to the gray color unique to underground creatures, and they are almost all bald.

Baan glared at the rogue and growled: "Don't compare this thing to a dwarf!"

"Gray dwarves are evil creatures. They believe in the god of murder, enslavement, bitterness and hatred, and take pleasure in slavery and torture." The monk explained: "I saw a gray dwarf rogue and a gray dwarf insect controller. They had obviously just been there.

A group of slaves were captured on the surface."

"I think we'd better not alert them. After they leave, we can find the exit by following the route they took."

"I have an unknown premonition." Barn said this, and the three of them were stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at the mage Cui Xi.

The young mage's face was glowing with excitement at this time, and his right hand had already reached into his bag of spell-casting materials!

"Stop it!"

Baan rushed over and grabbed Cui Xi's hand:

"I don't want to face a whole team of gray dwarf slave hunters!"
