The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

The underground city was even more lively than Xu Lai had imagined.

Not long after, Elvy flew over with several heads.

Although this group of mercenaries were not as fast as the Seraphim, they were all very slippery and separated directly at the fork in the road.

"Sir, I failed to do my job well and let these guys get away." Elvy seemed very ashamed. In the past, she always called him knight in public and private.

Xu Lai knew the characteristics of these Seraphim and that someone had to command them, but Elvy was obviously too busy to do so.

"It's not your fault, you're just some nobody, let's get out of here."

As he spoke, Xu Lai looked back at the underground passage. He remembered that there were many people following him.

After hesitating for a while, Xu Lai took out a green rock from his space backpack.

Xu Lai didn't even throw this thing out when fighting the black dragon.

Including the ones he gave Su Ya and the others for self-defense, there were only 99 of these things in total, and Xu Lai kept them as the final reserve.

Xu Lai smashed the green rock to the ground with force, and a hellfire burning with blazing flames fell from the sky.

"Let's go!"

After leaving this Hellfire behind, Xu Lai and others followed the map and walked deep underground.

After walking more than a hundred meters, Xu Lai directly cut off the connection with the Hellfire.

This also means that Hellfire has become a wild monster without an owner.

The evil camp does not have any so-called alliance relationship, and the three camps will attack each other.

Therefore, in theory, this Hellfire will actively attack all targets within the warning range except the Hell camp.

Sure enough, Xu Lai and others had not gone too far, and Xu Lai's powerful hearing allowed him to vaguely hear the roar of hellfire.

In a normal map, Hellfire is considered a big boss-level monster.

Many mercenaries or explorers will only encounter this kind of horror once or twice in their lifetime.

The blazing flames all around him alone could hurt people 4 or 5 meters away.

Flames are spell damage, and no matter how thick the armor is, it cannot block it. The key point is that this thing is made of stone, and it is not afraid of pain or death. Anyone who encounters it will be in big trouble.

This guy is a headache even for the regular paladins in the temple. Xu Lai estimates that if his paladin does not have his enhancement, he may not be able to defeat this guy.

Of course, even a Paladin with invincibility and a warhorse cannot be defeated by this thing.

Hellfire is a tier 7 puppet unit that is not only affected by mental spells, but also has the additional ability to be immune to magic, which means it cannot be controlled by the enemy.

The hellfire burning all over the body can cause damage to all melee units, and coupled with the splashing crushing fist, it is almost immune to group attacks.

As a super-large unit, the extra strength, armor, and health also make the Hellfire's melee ability surpass that of its peers.

A thing like this is a puppet life. There is no benefit in winning the fight. Only a crazy person would go up and risk his life.

Xu Lai threw this thing at the entrance, and no one should be able to pass through within 180 minutes.

As for the people coming in, they have their backs to the entrance and exit, so it is not easy for Hellfire to kill them.

Unless these guys insist on fighting Hellfire.

If this is true, it means that these people have ill intentions towards Xu Lai, and it would be a pity if they died.

Three hours is enough for Xu Lai's team, who have been freed from restrictions and have the bonus of super speed, to leave the people behind by dozens of kilometers.

However, it was easy to shake off the pursuers behind him, but it was not easy for him to avoid those who entered the dungeon earlier.

I don’t know if Xu Lai ran too fast or if this place was too famous, but after three hours, he had encountered three groups of adventurers along the way.

Fortunately, there are not many adventurers, most of them are three or five.

Apart from being frightened by Xu Lai, they did not dare to provoke a cavalry unit that dared to gallop in the underground passage.

You know, the underground world is not peaceful, not to mention the natural traps everywhere.

Just to say that in such a dim and almost dark environment, any piece of gravel on the road could cause a galloping horse to lame.

But for Xu Lai, who has dark vision and navigation skills, there will be no problem at all as long as he rushes in the front.

Although the adventurers he met along the way didn't dare to provoke Xu Lai, there were always some weird things and surprises.

Xu Lai sped along without encountering any wild monsters, but instead was blocked by two groups of people.

The first person to stop Xu Lai was a fierce woman with shiny white skin.

This woman probably knew that the dungeon was not a safe place, so she still wore leather armor.

However, this leather armor is so close-fitting that it not only highlights the figure completely, but also does not protect many parts of the body.

Especially the upper body, which fully demonstrates her advantage of being very fierce. None of the internet celebrities I saw on my phone in the first half of my life exposed as much as this woman.

"Little handsome boy, where are you going alone?"

Xu Lai looked around and couldn't help but smile: "I brought so many people with me, don't you know how to count?"

Xu Lai was not very happy when someone blocked his way, even though the woman was a beautiful one.

“Hey, I can tell at a glance that those are the men you recruited and the generals you promoted.

Tsk tsk, but handsome boy, why did you promote several men? Don’t you like women? "

Elvy was flying in the sky with the Seraphim. These people were only looking at the ground and did not notice the angels flying in the sky.

But that's normal. The dungeon is dim and their magic lamps can only barely illuminate the surroundings.

As soon as he was stopped, Xu Lai knew that this woman must be a hero, otherwise, if she appeared in the underground dressed like this, she would have been raped tens of thousands of times.

Moreover, the natives of this world are probably not so rude.

"If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out of the way."

The woman frowned, but still suppressed her anger and said:
"There's an underground town blocking the way ahead. You're pretty strong, little handsome boy. Why don't we team up and get through it together?"

The town the woman was talking about was the second accident that blocked Xu Lai's way.

"The town is not marked on the map."

"Who said it wasn't? We have been exploring underground for nearly a month, but there is nothing around here. Everything has been taken away by others.

I finally said I wanted to go deeper, but I was blocked by an underground town that didn't exist on the map. Isn't that infuriating?"

Although Xu Lai only traveled for 4 or 5 hours.

But his speed along the way was at least ten times faster than these people.

Moreover, he went straight to the goal, following the map without taking any detours.

Since these people came to the dungeon for adventure, they must have gone everywhere, so after exploring for nearly a month, they were still caught up by Xu Lai.

Since it is not on the map, it means that this underground town must have appeared not long ago.

Although Xu Lai had done a lot, in fact, all in all, these heroes had only been here for less than a year. Didn't you see that this woman had spent nearly a month exploring this almost danger-free dungeon?

Facts have proved that without a little luck and hard work, these six months would have passed in a flash.

"No matter if it's infuriating or not, at least let me go over and take a look first."

There is another thing about the underground that is far inferior to the ground, which is that most of the time there is only one road.

On the ground, most of the blocked roads can be bypassed by finding ways.

And underground, if a road is blocked by someone, then you will most likely have to force your way through, such as Mingyue City.

The woman smiled awkwardly. It seemed that there were fewer people coming from Xu Lai than her, but at a glance, they were all high-level knights, and their fighting ability was obviously not low.

"Little handsome boy, do you mind giving me a ride?"

This probably means that he wants to go with Xu Lai.

Xu Lai didn't like this woman very much, and didn't want others to know his purpose, so he didn't even bother to ask her name, and said simply:

"Sorry, we may not be going the same way."

After saying this, regardless of the woman's livid face, he kicked the horse's belly, and the majestic royal warhorse rushed out instantly.

Jian Yuan, Jilong, Roland and others behind him would not stop either.

The woman was obviously not happy with this and wanted to continue talking, but after Roland glared at her fiercely, she didn't dare to say anything for a moment.

When she came to her senses, all that was left for her was smoke and dust on the ground.

The woman gritted her teeth, cursed hatefully, and ordered her men to pack up immediately and follow Xu Lai's team.

If Xu Lai fought with the people in the dungeon, she would see if there was any chance to profit from it.

After speeding for more than ten minutes, the underground passage suddenly became wider.

Sure enough, not long after, a huge mushroom forest appeared in front of us.

This mushroom forest is extremely huge. Not only can the spores be picked as fruits, but the mushrooms themselves can also be used as fuel or even as a wood resource.

The mushroom forest is marked on the map, and around the mushroom forest, there is also a mining site and an underground river marked on the map.

However, this is the Northern Empire, not the grassland.

As for mineral resources, you can find almost inexhaustible mineral resources on any mountain.

Therefore, no one is willing to come here to develop ore, which is neither valuable nor easy to transport.

Especially the special environment underground makes mining difficult and cost much higher than on the ground.

But when Xu Lai first looked at the map, he felt that this was a good place to build an underground city. There was enough food, necessary water resources, as well as wood, ore and other necessary materials for building a city.

This is the place where human explorers often appear. If we build an underground city here, we will probably be overwhelmed by them.

However, this place is still quite far from the entrance, and it took Xu Lai most of the day to rush all the way.

Even if an ordinary explorer does not delay for a moment on the road, it will take at least a week to arrive.

The underground city that the woman mentioned is located between the mushroom forest and the mining site.

This place is extremely open. Even with the mushroom forest and the mine, plus an underground city that seems to be well developed, there should have been a lot of space.

But perhaps because it is close to a mining site and has no shortage of ore, the lord of the dungeon directly built more than a dozen guard towers.

These guard towers were erected in a row.

Except for invisible units, no one can pass safely without alerting the guards.

Fortunately, this is just a town. If it had been upgraded to a fortress-level city, people would probably have to build a city wall to completely seal off this place.

The familiar bell sounded from someone else's arrow tower.

The bonus provided by a guard tower is not as great as that provided by an arrow tower, but it can still be a threat if a top-level archer is inside.

The top archer of the dungeon force is none other than Queen Medusa.

For ordinary Medusa, petrification ability can only be effective in close combat, but Queen Medusa can directly fire petrification rays.

Considering that this town was most likely built by a hero sent from heaven, Xu Lai immediately stopped when the alarm sounded.

Xu Lai originally wanted to do this hero a favor and try to negotiate a deal.

He just wanted to reach his destination smoothly and didn't want to get into any trouble along the way.

However, perhaps because we were too lucky before, or perhaps because the formation of the Golden Statue of the God of War was too smooth, this time there were more twists and turns.

The more Xu Lai didn't want to get into trouble, the more trouble he was bound to get into.

"Human, get out of my town!"

No one knew where the voice came from, and even with Xu Lai's powerful eyesight, he couldn't see clearly who was speaking.

The whole town was pitch black, and except for a few faint lights, the visibility was not much better than anywhere else.

Xu Lai frowned, forced a smile and said, "Friend, let's talk. I'm just passing by. If it's convenient, I can pay the toll."

After hearing about the toll, the rough voice was silent for a long time.

"Haha, you have money, right? Fine, I'll charge you one million gold coins for the toll. If you can afford it, pay it. If you can't, get out!"

Xu Lai also fell silent. This guy probably has never seen the world and won't even open his mouth, even if it's as big as a lion's.

Not to mention one million gold coins, even ten million, Xu Lai could take it out on the spot.

Of course, even if he has it, if he really wants to take it out, his head will be squeezed by the door.

"Brother, where are you from? We are all from the same hometown, please give me some help!"

"It's your convenience. If you have money, pay it. If you don't, get out. I hate you guys who have no money but like to act cool the most."

Xu Lai was so angry that he wanted to take out a million gold coins on the spot and smash it on this guy's head.

However, if he really did such a thing, the guy opposite him would probably wake up laughing in his dreams.

"What if I say no?"

If Xu Lai says no, the other side really has no good solution.

Xu Lai stopped too early. Although he was within the attack range of the guard tower, he was at the limit of the range. Not only would his hit rate be greatly reduced, but the damage was only half.

What’s even more infuriating is that given Xu Lai’s position, if he were to be attacked, he could retreat to a position where they couldn’t reach him at any time.

An attack of this level is just enough to scare people, but wanting to kill Xu Lai and the others is simply a pipe dream.

But unfortunately, the person on the opposite side also had a bad temper, and no one knew what had stimulated him, but his temper was much worse than Xu Lai's.

Upon hearing Xu Lai's words, without saying anything, a row of arrows shot over from the guard tower. (End of this chapter)
