The Legend of Fatality
Chapter 735: Advance base
The prophet Tangul's sedan galloped north along the large tunnel of the underground passage. This majestic road extending from the underground of the Ridge Mountains is almost completely empty. It is much wider than the so-called Empire Avenue of mankind, and even wider and more majestic than the grand halls of mankind. It is difficult to imagine how such a majestic and huge tunnel was built.
Legend has it that the tunnels were built by the ancient dwarf empire, but Tangul scoffed at it. Perhaps the statues in the tunnels were built by the dwarfs, but even such a great cause even doubled the number of dwarves by 100 times. can not complete.
Another legend seems to be more believable, but this legend is extremely rare even in the long history of the Ratman. If it were not the accidental discovery of Tangul, he would not even know.
It is said that these huge underground tunnels were built by one of the first races in the world, long before the countable age, a changeable and melancholic short-lived people. In addition, they also built a large number of cemetery cities, which is why various tunnels will connect to various halls or larger spaces. But they existed for too long, and even a hundredth of a year was more than the total time recorded in the historical records of all races today. Of course, they perished as early as that long, and did not even leave anything to prove their existence.
In that legend, the dwarves only discovered these tunnels, then connected them to the hall, and finally decorated their own statues. Tanguer believes this because the rats do the same. Although in various propaganda, the rat people think that this is the product of the great cause of the rat people. But Tangul clearly knows that most of the work done by his people is to connect these passages with the hall, although most ratmen think that this is the remains of the dwarves, and taking the fruits of others ’labor is a Act wisely.
As mentioned earlier, if under normal circumstances, Tanguer will be very nervous because his bodyguards are much smaller than usual. This made it easy for him to be attacked by orcs, goblins, dwarves, or various strange underground creatures in these tunnels, trying to recapture part of their ancient territory. But at this moment, the Rat Prophet was just depressed and not nervous at all.
He bit his tail in despair. He knew from his men Luck Snaketongue that the airship had left Brandenburg and headed northeast. The poor, weeping worm reported that they had crossed the water before landing again, and the land below them looked more and more empty and desolate. Fortunately, in Tangul's view, he is a long-distance traveler with a wealth of knowledge, and he realized that the destination of the airship can only be the well-known Kaslov.
He didn't know what those stupid dwarves could want in that barbaric place. Maybe they heard rumors about gold or ancient treasures. Although dwarves are not the race he has studied the most, Tanguer knows enough about them to make guesses, which is their most likely target. Unfortunately, he didn't know where this road would eventually take them, and he also knew that the airship was flying farther and faster than he could normally chase.
He almost wanted to order Luck lurking on the airship to find a way to destroy the airship, so that he would have time to catch up with it. But one thing prevented him from doing it. In his considerable experience, stupid flatterers like Luck always do wrong things and mess things up completely, either killing themselves or destroying the airship that Tangul is so eager to own. No-giving such an order is the last option, and Tangul decides that he must really be desperate to try. Before that, he will exhaust all other possible methods.
He considered his choice. Maybe he can contact the leader of the caster family. Their powerful fortress, the endless abyss in the night rock cliffs of the Gray Mountains, is located in the northeast of Kaslov, which is the nearest squad fortress to the airship's possible destination. For someone less intelligent than Tangul, this seems like a wise plan.
Although he has undoubtedly mastered the powerful power, even the prophet has to admit that it is almost certainly beyond his ability to capture the airship with one hand. He needs help, even if it means taking a dejected tail to the stupid clan with the titles of Lord of the Beast, King of the Beasts, Creator of the Great Creation, etc.
But he also thought that it might be unwise to tell them all the details of his plan, because they might try to seize the airship by themselves. They are all clumsy fools, and without his guidance, they will undoubtedly fail.
No, he decided that the best thing he could do was rush to the north as soon as possible, hoping that something would happen and delay the dwarves until he arrived. He poked his head out of the window of the sedan chair and tweeted to the sedan chair, asking them to redouble their efforts. They were afraid of tasting the anger of their master, so they speeded up and ran faster, groaning under their heavy burden and the weight of all the magic equipment of Tangul.

Baien always believed that Kaslov was a place covered by snow and ice, where winter would never pass, and people always wandered around in fur. But the land below is very contradictory to this impression. It consists of long grass between rolling plains and dense pine forests.
Thinking for a moment told him that this is a must, because Kaslov is a place famous for cavalry, and if they live in endless snowdrifts, it will be difficult for them.
Bai En has to admit that if there is any difference, it is that the local sun is brighter than any other place he has been to. Kaslov's summer may be short, but it is also very warm. Bai En wondered if this was also part of Borek ’s plan, sailing north before the winds of winter threatened the airship.
If he finds that this is the case, he will not be surprised. The originality and skill of this expedition plan is far from his aimless journey with Grerogan. During the trip, they just decided to go with their interests, only carrying what happened to happen at the time. Obviously, this is not a typical dwarf behavior, maybe except for Gray Rogan.
Under the airship, he saw a group of reindeer startled by the huge shadow of the airship and began to jump away. The hunters stood up from the crouched place, covered their eyes with their hands, and looked at the passing airship in surprise. One of them, perhaps more courageous than others, might be more frightened, and threw his javelin at them, but the javelin fell far away from the hull, the tip fell first, and eventually trembles in the grass.
All this benefited from the spell given to Brian by the magician Eisenheim-Alfred-Schneider. This spell can enhance Bai En's vision, probably less than double. This spell is called hyperopia, and there is also a spell called eagle eye. Eisenheim also tried to teach Bai En, but Bai En could not be cast anyway. Even if this hyperopia technique can increase the user's field of view by two or three times, the effect after Bai Enshi's exhibition is greatly reduced.
Bai En replied that the other party's spell was the one that controls the hair. He didn't dare to teach the most primitive one to the other party, especially considering that the other party once said that he liked evil wizards. It is definitely an evil spell, so Beane teaches a spell he taught to apprentices of the Fatalin Spellcaster Academy.
But even this spell, the opponent learned it very quickly, and think that this spell is similar to the magic rope spell. During this time, the magician has been using this spell to control his long flowing hair, arranging various hairstyles on the top of his head. After the enthusiasm for the change of hairstyle, he even began to use the hair to create various imitation characters- —Bai En is not sure if it should be called, but it is indeed a hair statue.
Especially when he watched Eisenheim make statues of dwarves, himself, and even Angelica on his head, just to make Angelica smile, he really felt that people thought the caster was some kind of weirdo. There is a root cause.
And there is a reason why they are flying under the clouds now. The dwarf observers peered out from the large windows of each porthole and command deck. They were about to arrive at their destination soon, and everyone was ordered to pay close attention to Angelica ’s father ’s mansion. Mackason's navigation system took them to this vast area. Now they are looking for the exact location of the last station, and they will make a final landing there before entering the wasteland eroded by evil forces.
So far, what they have seen are only occasional hunters and scattered villages, where the smoke drifts lazily from the hole in the turf roof of the farmer's hut to the sky. These houses do not even have chimneys, only a hole with a wooden lid.
However, their appearance still caused these villagers to hurriedly escape their harvest and squeeze in the village wall. They undoubtedly believe that the airship is a new form of evil power that will cause trouble for their land.
Bai En is still surprised by their speed of travel ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ even if he can understand that the sky is much better than the land. It usually took him and Grerogan several months to complete the journey. It seems that the airship only takes a few days at most, and most of the time is spent searching for the privileged nobles belonging to Kaslov in this sea of grass Mansion. Indeed, this dwarf's engineering creation is comparable to the most powerful magic.
"Look! There!" He heard Angelica yelling and turned to see her pointing at something in the distance. It lies in the shadow of the distant black mountains, a dark and sinister mountain. Bai En realized that her eyes must be very sharp. Even through that hyperopia, he could only see a cloud of smoke.
Mackason's hand turned on the steering wheel, and the airship's nose moved in the direction the woman pointed. Then he pulled the levers to control the height, they swayed lower and faster, and the frightened birds flew out of the grass. As the mountains approached, Bane's eyes were fixed in the direction Angelica pointed.
Slowly, he saw a big and long hall. To his surprise, next to the mansion, inside the thick wall of the courtyard, there was a tall tower, which appeared vaguely like a smaller wooden version of the steel monster on the collapsed black tower.
Only then did he understand why Borek chose the location of the black tower as the base for building the airship. If they started from scratch instead of using the collapsed black tower, it would cost too much to build a docking structure of this size More manpower and material resources.
This is where they want to land. This is probably the last human settlement he saw.
