1108 Working Partner
“Yes, everyone, be careful. There might be an ambush.”
Ed felt that the mission was not as simple as it seemed, so he reminded the players in the guild and entered the cave with his team.
The cave was pitch black, but it was much bigger than he had imagined.
The feudal lords’ guards also lit up their torches to light up the surroundings.
After walking for about ten minutes, they came to an underground sewer.
He raised his torch and looked over. A large number of wooden boats had already been prepared on the water.
More than a dozen members of the chamber of commerce had already known the route in advance and called for the follow-up personnel to move the boxes of materials onto the wooden boat.
The feudal lords looked at each other.
An underground waterway?
This was the first time they had heard of such an underground river outside of Griffin City.
Could it be that Fang Heng didn’t lie?
Did he really find a secret passage to Hani City?
Fang Heng turned around and looked at the feudal lords, “I’m sorry, everyone. I didn’t know that so many people would come together, so I didn’t prepare too many wooden boats.”
“It’s alright,” Lord brownart nodded. “My guards are all elites. Let them follow behind us and swim over.”
“Alright,” he said.
After transporting the supplies, the team quickly went down along the current. In less than 20 minutes, the wooden boat in front was stopped by the net rope in front of them.
The team of guards behind him also climbed up to the shore.
Ed’s team looked around cautiously.
This place was…
The underground world?!
Ed’s pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart couldn’t help but beat violently.
Ever since the incident with the ley lines, the underground world had gradually entered the players’ field of vision.
Many players were very interested in the underground world and explored it more than once.
There were powerful monsters living in the underground world, as well as a powerful race called the cave-dwelling beasts.
Suddenly, there was a sizzling sound in the darkness.
“Be careful! Be on alert!”
The guards of the feudal lords were all elites, and after discovering the strange sound, they immediately spread out and stood guard, protecting the feudal lords in the middle.
After patrolling in the dark for a moment, the guards all looked forward and raised their weapons.
In front of him, a large number of short black shadows gradually emerged from the darkness.
It’s the cave-dwelling beasts!
Everyone couldn’t help but feel nervous.
There were too many cave-dwelling beasts coming from all directions!
They were densely packed! They had practically surrounded their entire 1000-man team!
This was terrible!
Ed’s heart tightened.
Was this Fang Heng’s backup plan? Relying on the power of the cave-dwelling beasts to deal with the feudal lords?
Chepo coldly looked around.
So these were cave-dwelling beasts. They were just a bunch of ants. No matter how many ants there were, they couldn’t shake the dragon.
“Everyone, don’t be nervous. We’re all friends.”
Fang Heng waved his hand, signaling the others to put down their weapons. He then walked out of the crowd and slowly walked forward.
The cave-dwelling beasts that appeared from the dark also put down their bone spears.
Argyll, who had come with the cave-dwelling beasts, walked out from the crowd of densely packed cave-dwelling beasts. He hurried forward and greeted, “Lord Fang Heng, Your Highness Mingyue!”
“Hmm, how is it?”
“It’s almost done,”
“Well done. Lead the way.”
What was going on?
Seeing that Fang Heng and the cave-dwelling beasts were communicating with each other so skillfully, the onlookers were amazed.
“The cave-dwelling beasts are actually getting along with Fang Heng?”
Lord Brent was even more curious now. He asked, “Lord Fang Heng, this is…”
“In fact, humans have always lived in peace with the cave-dwelling beasts. A long time ago, they even had an agreement to cooperate.”
“Yes, as you can see, the Land of Plague and the cave-dwelling beasts have always been working closely together. It’s all thanks to the help of the cave-dwelling beasts that we were able to find a convenient passage to the town.”
Hearing what Fang Heng said, all the feudal lords were shocked and couldn’t help but whisper to each other.
The feudal lord of the Land of Plague had joined forces with the cave-dwelling beasts?
How did he do it?
Randolf also looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
He had done some research on the species of cave-dwelling beasts, and he knew their characteristics very well.
It was definitely not as easy as Fang Heng had said if he wanted to join forces with the cave-dwelling beasts!
“Let’s go,” he said.
Seeing that the members of the chambers of commerce had already moved the materials off the ship, Fang Heng waved his hand, indicating that the team was to continue moving forward.
The cave-dwelling beasts were leading the way in front, while the feudal lords’ team followed the chambers of commerce to transport supplies.
As they walked forward, the feudal lords who were discussing while walking became more and more surprised.
Cooperate with the cave-dwelling beasts? Exploring the underground world?
This kind of thing would definitely cause a sensation if it got out!
Judging from the behavior of the cave-dwelling beasts, this was no longer a simple cooperation. They even felt that the cave-dwelling beasts were very respectful to Fang Heng!
How did he do it?
One of the feudal lords couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Fang Heng, how did you manage to work together with the cave-dwelling beasts?”
“Maybe it’s because we share the same ideals.”
Fang Heng lied casually.
The feudal lords and their followers exchanged glances with each other.
Now, no one thought that Fang Heng was a liar.
The person in front of them was unfathomable!
If he could have such a relationship with the cave-dwelling beasts, why would he spend so much effort to cheat them of this little money?
You must be joking!
Unlike the excited feudal lords, Ed’s team fell silent.
What was going on? How could this be? This was completely different from what they had expected!
What should he do?
Seeing the state of the feudal lords, Ed realized that this mission might be bad.
Eh?
Why did he stop?
Ed looked up.
In front of them, the team had completely stopped.
What’s the matter now?
Ed walked out of the crowd.
Seeing Fang Heng standing in front of a large stone magic array, he was once again in great shock.
Fang Heng faced the many feudal lords and spoke with fervor and assurance, “Everyone, this is the magical teleportation array left behind by the ancient Saint. We will rely on the magical teleportation array to carry out long-distance teleportation because the teleportation array needs to consume magic crystals as its energy source…”
“Is this really an ancient magic array?”
Randolf’s eyes glowed with a strange light. He stepped forward and touched the rune on the stone that was used to construct the magic array.
He had never seen such mystical runes before!
It also contained alchemy knowledge!
Randolf was so shocked that his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
When he was young, he had only read a few words about ancient magical arrays in a book. He didn’t expect to see it with his own eyes in this place!
It was true! It really was an ancient magical array!
And it could still be used!
Even though it had been through the passage of time, the huge stones used to construct the magic array had been greatly worn down.
Fang Heng looked at Randolf and nodded, “Yes. According to the cave-dwelling beasts, the Saint once built a large number of magic arrays in the underground world.”
