Chapter 80 Heading to the Underdark
  "Professor, shall we go to sea now?" Saiya asked while packing his things.

"Don't worry, we still need to go back to the territory first. If we go to sea, we also need professional sailors. Our sailors are still in the territory.

And before I leave, I have to meet Tallis first. Just give this manor to her. "

The manor he just bought had not been lived in for long before he moved out. If left there for a long time, it would be deserted, so he planned to leave it to his fiancée Talis to help take care of it.

"Professor, you're not married yet, are you going to give the manor to him? What if something happens in the future and she can't marry you?" Sai Ya said sourly.

This is what Saiya said. If anyone else had said it, he would have been fooled. He knew Sai Ya's feelings for him, but this matter had to be postponed.

If he agrees to Saiyan, then the relationship with Tallis will definitely be over. He thought about delaying it for a while, waiting until he and Tallis were really married, and then consider the issue of getting closer to Saiya.

I have to say, this idea is a bit dirty and scummy.

But he is already a noble, a big noble, with a territory of more than [-] people. Is it too much to have two women? Not too much at all, right?

The laws here in the empire are strict, and nobles cannot do many things too shamelessly. However, it is different in the New World. Many nobles there are truly lawless.

Feng Willow felt that compared with other nobles, his morals were actually above the standard.

"I have already found out where the Royal Champion Knight Academy is training this year. I want to see her this year. This time we go to sea, and it won't necessarily take long to come back. We have to be prepared that we won't be able to return in a year or two. Be prepared. And I heard that there is a special kind of monster in the place where they went, which is good at long-range attacks. I am going to get one to use the alienated beast," Feng Willow said.

"It takes such a long time!" A smile appeared on Saiyan's face again.

"By the way, how is your golden pheasant? Has the alienation been completed? Have you found any abnormalities?" Feng Willow asked, changing the subject.

"It's coming soon. Within this week, the alienation should be completed. But I saw that after other people used alienated beasts, their beasts became a lot bigger, and they became particularly fierce and aggressive.

But my colorful feathers didn't get bigger, but the feathers on my body became more colorful and particularly beautiful. "Saiya mentioned her golden pheasant and shared it with Feng Willow very excitedly.

"Bring it to me and see, this shouldn't be the case!" Feng Willow said doubtfully. To normalize a beast, you need to subdue the beast's mind, and the secret drug of alienation also has the effect of stimulating blood mutation. After taking the secret drug of alienation, it is normal for it to become fierce and aggressive.

Saiyan came over with a large cage covered with black cloth. He lifted the black cloth on the cage and saw that the feathers on the golden pheasant inside became particularly bright, as if they were shining with light, especially the ones on the tail. The feathers turned into seven colors.

However, the change was only a little bit, and none of the attributes of strength and agility were fed back to Saiyan. This golden pheasant has nothing but good looks.

"Has there been any change when it took the alienation secret medicine recently? Did it eat more?" Feng Willow asked.

"No, it's the same as at the beginning, without any changes." Saiya said with great certainty.

"Isn't it good?" Saiya asked carefully.

"It's nothing. It's probably that this alienated beast is useless. After the alienation is completed, we can alienate another one. However, each alienated beast will take up part of your mental energy. If this golden pheasant has no fighting power, it will have a negative impact on your future strength. , will have a great impact. If you encounter a beast that wants to be alienated again in the future, just kill this one." Feng Willow said nonchalantly.

When the golden pheasant heard Feng Willow say that he wanted to deal with it, there was a look of fear in its eyes. It could understand Feng Willow's words. It seems that its alienation lies in its intelligence, which is far smarter than ordinary animals.

"Ah? But I have already established a relationship with Caiyu, and I want to keep it." Saiyan asked cautiously.

"It's okay. If you want to stay, just stay. We don't lack your fighting ability." Feng Willow said with a smile.

"This time, Tallis and the others are going to the Dark Territory, which is more dangerous. Otherwise, you should stay here and wait for me to come back. I will go there by myself and come back quickly." Feng Willow said kindly.

"No, professor, I will go with you. I am also a Sequencer now. If the students of the Royal Champion Knight Academy can go, I can go too. I am no worse than them." Saiya said seriously.

"Okay, let's go there together." Feng Willow said.

The Underdark, also called the Underworld, is the inner layer of the world. There are a large number of dark creatures living in it, which is very dangerous. Moreover, there are also intelligent races living in the Underdark. These guys are cruel and cunning, and are generally in a hostile relationship with the human countries on the ground.

However, the creatures in the Underdark have always been suppressed by the major human empires. Because the demonic tide had not yet risen, the underground world was in chaos, and it was destined to be unable to develop technological power. With a small number of low-level sequencers, there is no way they can fight against the powerful musketeers of the Human Empire.

The reason why they were not eliminated was because of the dark environment of the Underdark, which made it impossible for the armies of the Human Empire to encircle and suppress them.

Major empires will also regularly send troops to hunt in the Underdark Region, not only to hunt the underground cavemen in the Underdark Region, but also to harvest various extraordinary resources in the underground world. Not only to enhance oneself, but also to weaken the chances of underground creatures becoming sequencers.

Especially when this demonic tide is about to arise, the empire has intensified its efforts to hunt the underground world. The cruel natural environment and the long-term survival of the fittest have made the creatures that survive the underground world very strong. Together with the demonic tide, , a powerful sequencer will definitely appear and pose a threat to the empire.

There are passages between the Underdark and the surface. These passages are very magical. They are natural portals. It is said that they were built by powerful forces in ancient times. However, they have been passed down for a long time and there are no specific records. More than a hundred miles north of the imperial capital, there is a passage leading to the Dark Territory. The empire has deployed heavy defense forces here. Not only to prevent people from the underground world from coming up, but also to monopolize resources. Although the Underdark is dangerous, it is also rich in extraordinary resources. The empire monopolizes extraordinary resources, so naturally it will not let others enter easily.

"I am Count Von Willow of the Empire. I want to enter the Underdark Realm to find people from the Royal Champion Knight Academy. This is the token given to me by His Majesty." Von Willow took out the token given to him by Wright VI and showed it to the defending soldiers.

"Earl Willow, please come in. The Underdark has not been peaceful recently. Our brothers who entered the Underdark have suffered many casualties. Please be careful. The place where they conduct trials is not fixed, so I cannot provide you with specific details. Location, but they will definitely not leave the underground passage too far. There are regulations in the academy that do not allow them to leave a radius of [-] miles.

This is the map of the Dark Territory. There is only a map with a radius of one hundred miles near the underground passage. Any map further away is confidential. "The guard said with a reminder.

"Thank you very much for the reminder and the map," von Willow said.

The underground passage looks like a huge skull made of earth and stone, and the skull's open mouth is the passage leading to the Dark Territory. Von Willow took Saiyan and two of his men and carefully walked into the skull's open mouth.

As soon as he stepped into the mouth, it was as if he had stepped into a mirror. After taking another step, he had come out of the underground passage. Behind him was a skull of earth and stone that was the same as the ground, but the outside world was dark.

There is no light at all in the darkness, but there is still a little light in the gloom. I don't know where the faint light comes from, which greatly hinders people's vision, and I can barely see five meters in front of me.

Feng Willow released the alienated crow. His alienated crow has practiced the secret technique of eagle eye. Even in this dark area, it can still see far away without being affected by the darkness at all.

In the dark area, there are cave-like roads that extend in all directions. Even the alienated crow cannot see too far. This kind of terrain is too easy to be attacked by sneak attack. Feng Willow thought for a while and released the three-headed snake lizard.

A group of four people simply sat on the back of the three-headed basilisk, so that they would have time to react even if they were attacked by surprise. The three-headed snake lizard can also see its surroundings clearly in this dark environment. The vertical pupils of the three-headed snake lizard were not affected at all in this dark environment.

Feng Willow used the dim light around him to look at the map in his hand. The passages were intricate and complex. In spacious places, there could be tens of kilometers of plains. In narrow places, only one person could pass through.

It's not that no plants grow in the underground world. Instead, there are mushrooms that emit a faint light. They grow in clusters, which look quite beautiful and fantastic.

"For such a large group of people to conduct trials underground, they must station their camp in a place with a water source. According to the map, there is an underground river and two lakes within this range.

The underground river flows in a relatively large area, so let's go to those two lakes first. Even if you can't find Tallis and the others, you can still look for traces of the beholder. I read the information before coming here and found that there are beholders near this underground passage. ” said Von Willow.

The beholder is one of Feng Willow's purposes for coming to the Underdark this time. His current fighting power relies on the three-headed snake lizard, which has a very powerful means of saving his life whether on land or in the sea.

After von Willow saw the long-range attack power of the steam machine gun, he realized that he still lacked a means of long-range attack, otherwise he would be easily kited. Before, all his long-range attacks relied on muskets.

However, his current strength and the power of the musket can no longer keep up with his needs. We need to find a monster that can attack from a distance. Fon Willow made a selection and chose the Beholder in the last sentence.

The beholder is a very powerful monster in the Underdark. It looks like a big eyeball with some tentacles growing on it. He has strong mental power and is good at illusion attacks. At the same time, his big eyes can also emit a kind of magic ray. It is very powerful and can hit very far.

The beholder, even in the dangerous underground world, is the overlord and very difficult to deal with. The empire's army had several encounters with them, and suffered heavy losses every time. Later, it was the empire that dispatched some strong men of the middle order to kill most of them.

However, there are still some remaining beholders lurking in the Underdark, and Feng Willow's target this time is them.

"Professor, since creatures like the beholder are so powerful, can you help me catch one as a companion?" Saiyan said cautiously.

"No, you are not strong enough to subdue a mentally powerful monster like the Beholder. I didn't let Brown and the others start to mutate the second beast because their current mental power is not enough.

You still need to continue practicing for a period of time before you can have enough mental power to subdue the alienated beast, otherwise it will easily be backlashed. ” Von Willow explained.

Perhaps because of the presence of the three-headed basilisk, their journey went very smoothly. Not to mention the attack, they didn't even see a single creature. I heard that the creatures in the Underdark are better at hiding.

Soon the group of them arrived at the location of the first lake marked on the map.

"Earl Willow, there are traces of a large group of people staying here, but they seem to have encountered something. They left in a hurry, but no bodies were found around, so they probably did not encounter an enemy." A guard following Feng Willow checked. After checking the surrounding situation, he reported.

"Saiya, what do you think is the reason that made the people from the Royal Champion Academy abandon this camp and leave in a hurry?" Feng Willow asked.

"Professor, since there are no corpses of the enemy, the most likely possibility is that they found traces of the important enemy and pursued them as quickly as possible. Professor, should we pursue them?" Saiya guessed.

"There's no rush, let's do our own thing first. I'm going to find the beholder first. Talis can see it anytime, but we don't have many opportunities to enter the Underdark." Fon Willow said.

Sai Ya was obviously very satisfied with Fon Willow's answer and gave him a sweet smile.

　There was a power outage at home, so I coded this chapter in an Internet cafe, which took a lot of time. There will definitely be a second one.
