Juliana’s workshop Chapter 14: Underworld
Lulu Naka is not telling the truth. She does have an uncle and a cousin. It’s just that now her “uncle” is enjoying tea in the shop, and as for the injury, it is even more nonsense-there is probably no one who can make her fake uncle fall down. several. Her “cousin” was directly driven by her to another rat road, forcing him to find a way to make money to support himself, and now he is probably somewhere in the sewer, walking in this dark and damp like Lulunaka. place.
Hearing Lulunaka’s words, the others didn’t look surprised. Since Lulu Naka is a resident of Rat Road, it is not surprising that her family members have fallen because of something. I am afraid that it is difficult to get love. This kind of thing happens every day in Rat Road. Lulunaka is nothing special.
“Just call me Marina, I’m not much older than you.” Marina smiled and touched Lulunaka’s head. Compared with the other scrawny children in Mouse Road, Lulu Naka looked much better, at least as if she could eat. Moreover, Lulunaka’s pitiful look really arouses sympathy even more. This girl is so pitiful, although she also has important tasks to complete, Marina feels that she can still bring this helpless child. Now that Lulunaka has reached this dangerous place, and she is still alone, it can be seen that she is enlightened, and Marina thinks she can still help Lulunaka.
“Two people, if you want to chat, you can find a safe place to talk when you come back from the sewer.” Slick…It should be a hatchet. He coughed a few times and interrupted Marina and Lulu. Naka’s conversation. “It’s been discussed before. In the sewer, you have to listen to my commands and orders.”
“Of course, in the sewer, you and Mr. Chris are the most experienced, otherwise the tavernkeeper would not recommend you to those of us who are in the sewer for the first time.” Marina said, and then looked around. Ecoo. Seeing Marina glance at herself, Ikoo’s waist straightened. As Lulu Naka thought, this is a man who easily exposes his thoughts, very simple and easy to understand.
Chris, who was nicknamed a little cloak by Luluna, has chosen one of the downward pipes and walked down without saying anything.
“Come on, follow us.” Marina let go of Lulunaka, reached out and held her hand, “If you are afraid, hold my hand and follow me.”
“Thank you, Marina.” Lulunaka smiled brightly at her, “But I can’t trouble you too much, just let me follow you behind.”
Seeing the smile on Lulunaka’s face, Marina felt that she was a little nervous and relaxed a little, and smiled, “You are really a strong girl.”
Just like that, the five-person team moved in one direction, going deeper underground. Chris walked ahead and was responsible for paying attention to the movement ahead. This Mr. Cloak has a pair of sharp eyes that can easily adapt to the darkness, his nose is also more sensitive than others, and his ears can hear the sound of running water that most people can’t hear. Coupled with a wealth of experience and some intuition, he is very suitable to walk in the front and detect whether there is danger ahead. His footsteps were silent, and the cloak wrapped him densely, and there was no sense of disobedience in the darkness. And he kept a distance from the team, and the light range of the torch was just behind him, not covering him. This was still a taciturn man, as if he didn’t intend to communicate with his companions at all.
Walking behind is Ikoo, then Marina and Lulunaka following Ikoo, and the hatchet is the last. The short axe is at the end, guarding against things that might come behind you. Although there is nothing on this road, in places like sewers, threats may sometimes not appear on the road, and may appear in various unexpected places. They had already left the safe area. After passing the sloping downward passage, the five came to a more spacious space. A water canal several meters wide, with walkable roads on both sides, and wooden board bridges over the canal. Even without this bridge, anyone who is light or has enough jumping ability can easily jump to the opposite side, but if there is a bridge, it is always much more convenient than jumping over with all your strength. The walls on both sides of the road seem to have never been dry, and are always slippery. The bricks and stones are covered with dark green moss. If you reach out and touch them, it will feel very slippery and disgusting. There are shelves for torches on the walls, and extinguished torches are inserted on them. Hatchet and Ikoo moved the torch in their hands and lit the extinguished torch. Some of them burned, and some of the flames flickered a few times, and they continued to return to the extinguished state, but there was a little light. It is enough for them. Water droplets continued to fall on their heads, some fell on the hatchets and others, some fell on the ground, and there was a small sound of water droplets. There are narrow holes arranged under the walls on both sides, some of which will have water flowing out to the middle channel, but more, there is no flowing water, only the rat’s squeaking from the inside, and the sound of water splashing— —It’s probably the sound of some small things moving on the surface of the water. As for whether it is a mouse or not, it’s hard to say.
“It’s a magical place…” Marina whispered. She looked up and looked around. This place is a bit larger than the rat road that came in at the beginning, and there are not so many people, clutter, and clutter. Shed. This also gives people an illusion that is far greater than Rat Dao. “How can this kind of space exist underground, it looks like a street.”
“When I was on the ground, I often heard stories about sewers.” Ikoo said, as a young man, he now has a feeling that he is stepping into a magical adventure, which makes him feel The voice sounded a bit high, but he just thought of the surrounding environment and made him lower his voice. “I heard that these places were the places where the people of King’s Fort lived and moved around hundreds of years ago, but they have experienced underground ethnic groups. After the invasion, in a seesaw and stalemate that was almost equivalent to a large-scale war, the people on the ground finally drove the underground races out of the King’s Fort and drove them to the underground of the western mountains… But the cost was heavy, these The place has become what it is now, it is no longer safe, because there are still things multiplying and surviving deep underground.”
” I know that history~IndoMTL.com~Marina said, “Underground races are bug people with carapace, and snake people with human faces and snake bodies, and even some have been assimilated by the underground environment. The dwarves and dwarves, together with other strange beings, formed an underground empire. “
“That’s not an empire, it’s just a magic cave.” Ikeo said.
“Yes, Miss Marina.” Lulunaka also interjected at this time. “I have also heard about the sewers. Those are stories that can make people sleep insecure at night. The venomous snake who vomits the child. , The skins are black gnomes and dwarves, and insects in disgusting carapace… When this horrible cave was still there, how scared the residents of King Castle would be, if I lived in that era I’m afraid I’m afraid to go underground at all.”
Marina is not from the King’s Fort. She almost came here as a wandering place, just because it is a friendly place for the mage. But even an outsider like her knew something about the underground of King’s Castle. As for now, she has heard more detailed statements from the local residents of King’s Fort, whether it is Ikeo or Lulu Naka, they don’t have a good impression of places like sewers. “After driving out those underground races, do the rulers of Kings Castle have no plans to regain these places? I think the underground is still intact, not in ruins.”
“That’s because you haven’t seen the ruins, the female wizard.” The short axe walking behind said, “I have seen those ruins, and the scourges that may have been left for hundreds of years, I am afraid you will not I will say this.”
“Hundreds of years of scourge, what is that?” Marina asked.
Hatchet shrugged, “I hope I don’t see that kind of thing along the way, that’s not a good thing.”
