"How long is it?"
"About 80 kilometers."
"Is there any danger?"
"Not really, but there are many forks in the road, easy to take a wrong turn."
"Do you still remember the way?"
"We've left marks, and there's the breath left by the Holy Song Clan, we definitely won't get lost."
"I saw you just interrogated several prisoners, did you get any important information?"
"Sir, the intelligence these prisoners know is no different from what I know..."
"Oh? Will the Holy Song Clan dispatch heavy guards at the passage entrance?"
"No, the Holy Song Clan needs enough troops to guard their territory and their mineral veins...it's impossible to mobilize too many troops."
"Even if they gain huge benefits on the earth's surface, it's the same...with a population of just over five thousand, they can't focus the center on this."
Lear nodded, having made up his mind.
But to be cautious, he summoned several prisoners and interrogated them a few more times.
But the information obtained also had little value, all previously informed by Isa.
After making preparations, Lear didn't hesitate, and directly ordered the march into the Underworld.
This is today's goal!
But to prevent the retreat from being encircled, he let the Crimson Queen Bee and the swarm guard the entrance.
Even if they encounter some suddenly appearing enemy, the swarm can respond and warn timely.
And the Deserted Tomb went with him, with this force that can continually resurrect...no need to fear sacrifices if encountering danger.
With increased strength, the most direct benefit is having more cards to play.
No longer like before, going out to clear a wild monster, needing to calculate for half a day, having to leave behind his few remaining troop types to guard home.
The captured Dark Night Elves were concentrated into a batch of bubbles, transported back to the territory by some Bubble Beasts.
The rest continued to follow Lear to the expedition of the Underworld.
After a series of arrangements, he didn't hesitate either, gathered the army, and filed in.
Stepping into the underground passage, the air immediately became stuffy.
The light also suddenly dimmed.
The environment without sunlight dramatically increased psychological pressure.
In the underground tunnel, the original exploration method was no longer applicable.
Lear had the Deserted Tomb Guard and Great Demon cooperate, taking turns to explore upfront.
Exploring a kilometer away, ensuring safety.
The quiet and closed underground passage seemed to be relatively single in environment, but more threatening than the earth's surface.
Must do thorough preparation.
However, fortunately, this tunnel was just passed by the Dark Night Elves, nothing encountered enemies.
After advancing 30 kilometers, some monster corpses began appearing in the cave.
There were spiders with human-like long hair, porcupines with bodies like rocks, and brain-eating worms with only heads...
Without the light of day, the monsters in the Underworld began to let loose.
Each stranger than the last.
The dark environment made everyone a bit nervous.
But fortunately, both the Dark Night Elves and the Cold-blooded Cavalry had Dark Vision, so there was no worry.
The Great Demon, even less to worry, the Deserted Tomb Guard is a ghost, not afraid of darkness.
Calculating it out, only Lear is a proper human, but after mastering Authority, it's not the same now.
His perception directly extended out to 300 meters...no need to use eyes to see, everything around was clearly visible.
In this somewhat oppressive atmosphere of marching, the long passage was gradually crossed.
Time slowly passed, in the 8th hour of underground progress, the army's mood became somewhat restless.
The prolonged dark, closed, unknown environment increased everyone's psychological pressure.
At this moment...the foremost exploring Great Demon suddenly returned, bringing the most anticipated news—
The Underworld was reached!
Lear's spirits lifted, with endless curiosity, he immediately prompted the army to speed up.
What exactly is the legendary Underworld?
Black Dragon, Zor Elves, Gray Dwarves, Dungeon Minotaurs, Evil Eyes, Medusa, Underground City, Dragon Treasure, Gold, Mithril...
Various words surfaced in his mind.
On the earth's surface, the Underworld is a mysterious region filled with legendary flavor, often related to adventure and wealth.
It seems that as long as you can enter the Underworld and come back alive, you are bound to gain immense wealth.
This legend has been circulated in the Main Plane, repeatedly sung by minstrels...
This has attracted countless adventurers seeking the entrance to the Underworld, stepping into it.
Finally, after turning a bend, a faint light appeared ahead.
A huge hole light spot appeared in sight.
Taking a deep breath, stepping forward, passing through the hole.
Suddenly, it opened up before eyes.
This mysterious and legendary land suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.
Above the vault was a wall radiating a faint light.
Like a giant's back, supporting the entire world.
The distance from the ground was about two to three kilometers.
Under the faint light's reflection, the world didn't seem dark, having a hazy twilight hue.
Ahead towering mountains emerged.
Several mountain peaks even directly joined with the vault, forming a state of connection between heaven and earth.
Looking around, completely different from the earth's surface.
The front plants grew strangely and twisted, vertically growing, horizontally growing, completely not looking like normal plants growing towards the sun.
At the same time, the underground magic power was extremely wild, like an untamed giant dragon.
It made people's mood inexplicably restless.
"Welcome to this land of eternal night...sir."
Isa quietly appeared at the side, eyelash slightly trembling, chest heaving.
Five fingers tightly grasped the longbow.
Here is her home, but she was driven away by those damn bastards in the most cruel way.
Now, she's back, bringing her Sovereign...back!!
Previously, not strong enough she could only flee, but now it's different, her Sovereign can conquer!
"This land hides death and destruction, also nurturing countless lives."
"Here are tall underground cities, majestic lord palaces, precious treasure vaults, elusive ancient ruins..."
"There are also powerful Evil Dragons, fierce Raiders, bloodthirsty Wolf Riders, crazed Gray Dwarves, manic dark Banshees."
"Strong ones can conquer and gain everything."
"Weak ones will become food..."
"My king, please use your most exalted posture, to trample this land beneath your feet!!!"
Her tone mixed with madness and fervor.
