Proof of the Sun King

The underground tunnels of Marienburg can be roughly divided into two areas: the shallow urban area and the deep mining area.

As mentioned earlier, the underground of Marienburg consists of numerous tunnels and mines. Due to large-scale illegal excavation and construction, every house in Marienburg in the canal area and civilian area has a basement linking underground tunnels, and many smuggling Passengers use these tunnels to enter Marienburg, merchants build warehouses and secret storage sites underground, and even civilians unscrupulously build settlements in underground tunnels.

But only in this way, what humans use is only a part of the underground tunnel, and this part of the area that is used by humans is the shallow urban area.

The rulers of Marienburg spent a lot of money to block some tunnels and destroy them, and then sent more people to guard some of the main tunnels, so the shallow city was relatively safe.

What's really scary is the deep mining area.

Countless complex and winding tunnels no one knows where they lead. In the deep mining area, the deepest passage is said to lead to the molten underground and even the residence of demons. Many humans living in the deep mining area are threatened by corruption and corruption. Many Chaos sects are active in the dark, and there are various beasts and demons active. According to eyewitnesses, they have seen rats the size of people in the depths of the mine.

It was the notorious Skaven. The Empire of Man fought several wars with the Skaven hundreds of years ago. The Empire won the final victory, but in retaliation, the Emperor of the Empire died at the time. Assassination by Rat Man Assassin at all costs.

Of course, Marienburg will not sit idly by. Schultz’s method is to hire mercenaries to patrol and clean up monsters on a regular basis. The nobles always charge high prices and trick the mercenaries into saying that the deep mines are full of amazing treasures. It lured mercenaries to take the commission. In fact, some mercenaries found buried treasures in the deep mines and made a fortune. Whenever this happened, Grand Duke Schultz would generously announce the mercenaries. Don't pay taxes on that money and encourage more mercenaries to venture into the deep mines, sparking adventure after expedition.

Few people notice that more mercenaries are always forgotten in the midst of going back and forth.

The gate from the shallow city to the deep mining area was guarded by a large number of guards. Jacob didn't say much. He took the three apprentices and continued down the dark and deep mining pit: "Damn, damp, dark, **** fallen, All three of the things I hate the most."

"Vice President, be careful, listen to the guards, it seems that a new sect has appeared in the deep mining area recently." A young witcher pulled his hat brim and said in a cautious tone: "It is said that the object of this sect's belief is a grey dog."

"Then we are lucky, because we have delicious dog meat to eat." Jacob bared his teeth, showing his brown teeth from years of smoking.

"Haha~" Several witchers laughed together.

Yes, for witchers like them who lick their blood and spend their whole lives in battle, they really don't have much fun, all they can enjoy is the food, fire and women between battles .

Because witchers have been in contact with chaotic creatures all the year round, they are often deeply affected physiologically. The production of antibodies to chaos is one aspect. Years of contact with chaos also make them bloodthirsty, mutated, and some sexes are particularly strong. .

Walking in the dark tunnel with torches, the narrower tunnel and the oppressive environment made several witchers feel very uncomfortable, so they began to search for topics: "Where is Belt? Jock?"

The young witcher named Jock took out a fragment: "I found this in a huge warehouse about thirty minutes away from here, and this fragment is undoubtedly part of the torch that Belt was wearing. He must have had a fight there."

"A giant warehouse?" Jacob thought of something: "A giant warehouse for what?"

"It's a warehouse for storing some candles and clothes." Jock replied, these young witchers were all dressed in similar clothes, wrapping themselves in thick clothes.

"How come the candles are stored with the clothes?" Jacob immediately realized something was wrong, but the witcher gave a quirky smile: "But we have no choice, even if we know there is a problem, we must go and investigate. , because the time does not wait, Belt may disappear again at any time."

That's what witchers do, sometimes even if they know something might be wrong, they'll still investigate because they need money, they need to get things done.

The deeper you go, the more wet and eerie the tunnels get, the witcher's thick boots dripping with water, the deep groundwater of Marienburg seeps all over the place, and the many tunnels in disrepair no one knows where to go. Where, the only thing the witchers can rely on is the torches in their hands, but their torches do have a bit of a peculiarity.

The torches in the hands of several demon hunters were burning very vigorously, and the large flames that continued to emerge could illuminate the surrounding dark environment, and they had been burning for more than 20 minutes without showing any signs of going out.

Under normal circumstances, no matter how exquisite the craftsmanship is, such a vigorous torch will not burn for more than a quarter of an hour. The atmosphere of seeing a few people is very stiff, and one of the witchers said: "Master Jacob, this torch is again Did you get it from Senator Sophia?"

It is well known that there is a relationship between the vice president of the Witcher Guild and Sophia, a congresswoman of Garland, and Jacob never tried to hide it, but Jacob just grinned: "She gave me I've already used up all of it, and now what we have in our hands is a torch made by the little guy Veronica, haven't you all seen her?"

"Yeah, what a beautiful witch, she is as beautiful as a rose with dew in the morning." Jock said with a smile: "At that time, many of us witchers were still betting in private that she Which witcher boy would you choose as a partner."

"As a result, no one guessed right. She doesn't look down on us witchers at all. The truth is as she wished. She has a close relationship with the Nord hero 'Sledgehammer' Ryan, who has recently become famous in the mainland. Alas, if I also Just be adopted by the lord." Another witcher joked, but anyone could hear the envy in his voice.

"Little Veronica is very high-spirited." Jacob held the torch and looked at the mushrooms on the ground and the strange patterns on the tunnel wall: "She has picked up a treasure, and Ryan's growth rate is really fast. It is beyond imagination. He is not yet 25 years old this year, and he is already a middle-level legend. I have lived for more than 100 years, and I have been stuck in the high-level legend for almost 50 years. It seems that I have no chance to touch it in my life. Sanctuary."

"Vice President, don't say that, you still have a lot of time." Some witchers comforted.

"No... I can already feel that my body is aging rapidly, it won't take too many years, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, I will become a real old man, so we must hurry up, boys, be careful "Jacob knew that his body was gradually aging, and this time he came out to hunt down Belt and he had to hurry up and not let the fallen man go unpunished.

Passing through a narrow tunnel, the deep mining area suddenly opened up in front of several witchers. The top twenty meters high was supported by a large number of stone pillars and reinforced by many wooden shelves. Even after thousands of years, a few A witcher can still vaguely see the outlines of the huge dwarf sculptures, and the deep mining area of ​​Marienburg once had masterpieces of dwarves in it. Some adventurers found treasures that were not groundless, but real.

The four witchers moved forward in the tunnel in a low-key manner. They used sign language to communicate as much as possible. No one knew what was in the deep mining area. This was a paradise for all kinds of monsters, but not humans.

"This way, vice president, brothers." Jock found a place to go up. He used hook locks and rock climbing skills to cross an inconspicuous low wall. Only then did everyone find that they walked a short distance along the top of the low wall. After the road, there is actually a road leading to another place.

"How did you find this ghost road?" the witchers scolded and climbed up the low wall, and then walked along the wall, making them uncomfortable to have to hunched forward.

"It's a smell." Jock put his finger under his nose and said softly: "Remember? Slaanesh sect people like to apply a lot of incense and perfume essential oils on their bodies, I'm checking When I got here, I felt a pungent smell, so I searched for a long time before I found this entrance."

"mmp, this can be found by your kid, you have the ability." Jacob and the other two witchers laughed and scolded, and they stopped talking. Following a long corridor, several people appeared together. Above the cliff, below the cliff is the warehouse that Jock detected.

The door of the warehouse is locked with iron ropes. It is unlikely that ordinary and elite people will break the door. Moreover, the warehouse is hidden very secretly. There are not many people who want to come to visit. A few witchers are hiding in the dark. Be careful. spy on everything.

"Hmm~ a huge variety of footprints, leather shoes, oversized leather boots, and... hoof prints and dancing shoe prints, some are new, some are old, there should be someone in this place." Jacob checked The footprints on the ground made a cautious gesture towards the witcher behind him: "This may be the settlement of the Chaos Sect, everyone be careful."

A few witchers responded in a low voice, they extinguished the torches, and one of the witchers walked up to Jacob and said, "Vice President? What do we do now? Are we going to investigate this warehouse directly?"

Jacob motioned for the witchers to take it easy, his mutated amber eyes fixed on the warehouse door.

"The way the chain is knotted in front of the door is very special, which proves that the person in charge of guarding or locking the door was once a sailor."

"The iron gate doesn't look new, and the lock is full of signs of wear and tear, which shows that people come and go here frequently."

"Jock, are you sure you found this place yourself? Wasn't it lured by something?"

Jacob's question made the young witcher Jock a little confused. He thought about it carefully, and then he said with some uncertainty: "It should be... It should be? I remember that not long after I went deep into the deep mining area, I I met a group of strange people, and I followed them for a while out of curiosity, and then I lost it near the wall. I found this entrance after groping for a long time, and the fragments were found at the door of the warehouse."

"Tsk, idiot, I suspect that you were seduced by them, but... It's hard to say this kind of thing, let's not rush in, now there is an ambush here, everyone is ready." Jacob couldn't be sure whether Jock was really After being seduced, the veteran demon hunter thought carefully and made a decision: "Find a place, we will wait quietly, if Bert wants to ambush us here, he must have done it. Prepare."

So several witchers searched for a hidden place outside the warehouse, hid themselves, and quietly waited for the development of things. In the darkness, only a few pairs of mutated eyes were left to monitor everything.

An hour has passed.

Two hours, three hours...

After waiting for five hours, a large number of people's voices suddenly sounded in the dead warehouse, countless torches and shouting voices came one after another, and dozens of guards and several people in full suits appeared in the originally empty warehouse. Mercenary in armor.

"Damn, that idiot in Oaks also said that someone would come here, but we waited for hours and there was no fart!"

"Yes! We were deceived!"

"Fuck~www.novelmt.com~ Anyway, we've been in ambush here for six full hours according to his request, and those **** witchers still haven't appeared, then it has nothing to do with us!"

"Yeah, the commission that should be paid is still to be paid, brothers, we have completed the task and withdrawn! Let's go back to the city and have a feast!"

"Let's go let's go~"

A large group of mercenaries and guards scolded and lit the torches. Under the operation of a mercenary, a gate appeared in the originally tightly sewn stone wall. The group walked out one by one and disappeared in the gate, and then the stone gate was tightly closed again. .

"Sure enough, there is an ambush!" The three young witchers looked at the bows and crossbows in the hands of the mercenaries and felt a chill in their hearts. If they rushed in, they would most likely fall into an ambush.

"I knew there was an ambush." ​​Jacob spat, and then signaled a few people not to worry: "Wait, let's wait a while, these mercenaries may not really leave."

A few restless witchers were puzzled by Jacob's orders, but they still obeyed his orders and continued to wait.

Things were just as Jacob expected. Ten minutes later, the mercenaries and guards went back and forth, and they really left after seeing that no one showed up.

The last group of people left, Jacob finally motioned to the witchers to get up: "Get up, boys, start moving!"

The four witchers gradually approached the warehouse, completely unaware that in the passage where they came in, a tall man in a tall round hat and a blood-red leather coat smiled: "Be cautious as always, it really is your style, Ya. Gebu...Tutor!"

"But I know you too well, Master."

"This warehouse is your cemetery!" WeChat search public number: wmdy66, you are lonely, Miss Sister warms you with movies
