Warhammer Throne
Chapter 87: To explore deep mining areas
The underground tunnel in Marienburg can be roughly divided into two areas: shallow urban area and deep mining area.
As mentioned above, the underground of Marinburg consists of numerous tunnel pits. Due to large-scale illegal excavation and construction, every house in Marinburg 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 points underground, and even civilians unscrupulously establish residential areas in underground tunnels.
But only in this way, humans only use a part of the underground tunnel. This part of the area used by humans is the shallow city.
The rulers of Marienburg spent a lot of money to block and destroy some of the tunnels, and then sent some personnel to guard some of the main tunnels, so the shallow city is relatively safe.
What is really scary is the deep mining area.
Countless complex and winding tunnels, no one knows where to go. In the deep mine area, the deepest passage is said to lead to the ground of the molten fire and even the devil ’s residence. Many humans living in the deep mine area are threatened by corruption and corruption. Many Chaos sects are active in the dark, and various fierce beasts and demons are active. According to eyewitnesses, there have been people as large as mice in the depths of the mine.
It was the infamous Skaven Ratmen. The human empire had fought several wars with the Skaven Ratmen hundreds of years ago. The Empire achieved its final victory, but in revenge, the emperor who was in power at that time died. The assassination of the Ratman Assassin at no cost.
Of course Marienburg will not sit back and watch. Schultz's method is to hire mercenaries to patrol regularly and clean up the monsters. The nobles always pay high prices and trick the mercenaries into saying that the deep mines are filled with amazing treasures, constantly Luring the mercenaries to take over the commission, in fact, there are indeed mercenaries who found buried treasures in the deep mines and therefore made a fortune, and whenever this happened, Grand Duke Schultz always generously announced the mercenaries There is no need to pay taxes on this money and encourage more mercenaries to explore deep mines, thereby triggering an exploration boom.
Few people noticed that more mercenaries were always forgotten in the past.
There are a lot of guards at the gate of the shallow city to the deep mining area. Jacob did n’t talk much. He led three apprentices down the dark and deep mine pit: "Damn, wet, dark, **** fallen, All three of my most annoying things are together. "
"Vice president, be careful, and listen to the guards, it seems that a new sect has appeared in the deep mining area recently." A young demon hunter pulled his cap, and his tone was very cautious: Grey dog. "
"Then we are lucky because we have delicious dog meat." Jacob fangs, showing his teeth becoming yellowed because of smoking all year round.
"Haha ~" Several demon hunters laughed together.
Yeah, for the demon hunters who have spent their lives in battle like this, they really do n’t have much fun, they can only enjoy the food, fire and women in the gap between battles .
Because of the constant contact with chaotic creations, the devil hunters are often deeply affected physiologically. The production of antibodies to chaos is one aspect. Long-term contact with chaos also makes them bloodthirsty, body variants, and certain desires are particularly strong.
With a torch on, walking in a dark tunnel, the narrower tunnel and the depressed environment made several demon hunters feel uncomfortable, so they began to look for the topic: "Where does Belt appear? Jock?"
A young demon hunter named Jok found a piece of debris: "I discovered this in a huge warehouse about thirty minutes away from here. This piece is undoubtedly part of the firecracker worn by Belt, He must have been fighting there. "
"Giant warehouse?" Jacob thought of: "Is it a giant warehouse that stores something?"
"It's a warehouse for candles and clothes." Joke replied. The young demon hunters were all dressed similarly, all wrapped in thick clothes.
"How can the candles be stored together with the clothes?" Jacob immediately realized that something was wrong, but the demon hunter still smiled weirdly: "But we have no choice, even if we know there is a problem here, we must also investigate. , Because time is not waiting, Belter may disappear again at any time. "
This is the style of the demon hunter. Sometimes, even if they know that there may be something wrong, they will still investigate, because they need money and need to complete the task.
The deeper the tunnel, the more humid and weird the tunnel is. The thick boots of the demon hunter are covered with drops of water. The deep underground water of Marienburg is leaking around in this place. Many tunnels in disrepair are unknown. Where, the only thing the demon hunters can rely on is the torch in their hands, but their torch is indeed a bit strange.
The torches in the hands of several demon hunters burned very vigorously, and a large burst of flames could illuminate the surrounding dark environment, and there was no sign of extinction after burning for more than 20 minutes.
Under ordinary circumstances, no matter how delicate the craftsmanship is, such a flaming torch will not burn for more than a quarter of an hour, and the atmosphere of seeing several people is very stiff. One of the demon hunters said, "Master Jacob, this torch has another Did you get it from Senator Sofia? "
The relationship between the deputy chairman of the Demon Hunter ’s Guild and Congresswoman Sofia Garland is well known. Jacob never wanted to cover up, but Jacob just grinned: “She gave me I ’ve run out of it, and now we have the torches made by Veronica, have n’t you all seen her? "
"Yeah, really a beautiful witch, she is as beautiful as a rose with dew stuck in the morning." Joke said with a smile: "At that time, many of our devil hunters were still betting in private, she Which hunter lad will choose as a partner. "
"As a result, no one guessed right. She did not look at us as demon hunters at all, and the facts were as she wished. She has a close relationship with the recently famous Nord hero" Sledgehammer "Lane, alas, if I also It ’s good to be adopted by the lord. "Another demon hunter made a joke, but anyone could hear the envy in his voice.
"Little Veronica has a strong heart." Jacob held the torch, looking at the mushrooms on the ground and the strange patterns on the tunnel wall: "She's a baby, and Ryan's growth rate is really fast It is beyond imagination. He is under 25 years old this year, and he is already a legendary mid-level. I have lived for more than 100 years, and I have been stuck at the legendary high-level for almost 50 years. Sanctuary. "
"Vice president, don't say that, you still have a lot of time." Some hunters comforted.
"No ... I can already feel that my body is accelerating aging, not too many years, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, I will become a real old man, so we must hold fast, boys, be careful "Jacob knew that his body was getting old, and this time he must go out to hunt down Belter, he must seize the time, and he can no longer let the fallen man go unpunished.
After passing through a narrow tunnel, the deep mining area suddenly opened up in front of several demon hunters. The top of the 20-meter high was supported by a large number of stone pillars and reinforced by many wooden shelves. Even after thousands of years, The demon hunters can still vaguely see the outlines of the huge sculptures of the dwarves. The deep mines of Marienburg also have the masterpieces of the dwarves left in them. Some adventurers found the treasures are not groundless but real.
The four demon hunters walked low-key in the tunnel. They used sign language to communicate as much as possible. No one knew what was in the deep mining area. This is a paradise for various monsters, but it is not human.
"Here, Vice President, brothers." Jok found a place to go up. He used hooklocks and climbing skills to cross a humble low wall, and everyone found a short walk along the top of the low wall. After the road, there was a road leading to another place.
"How did you find this ghost path?" Several demon hunters scrambled up the low wall, and then walked along the wall, bowing forward to make them uncomfortable.
"It's a smell." Jock put his finger under his nose and said softly: "Remember? The sectarians like to apply a lot of incense and perfume oil to their bodies, I'm checking When I got here, I felt a pungent scent, so I found this entrance for a long time. "
"MMP, this can make you kid find it, you are capable." Jacob and the other two demon hunters laughed and scolded, so they stopped talking and followed a long channel, several people appeared together Above the cliff, just below the cliff is the warehouse that Jok detected.
The gate of the warehouse is locked with a steel wire. It is unlikely that ordinary and elite people will break this gate. This warehouse is hidden very secretly. There are not many people who want to come to visit. Several demon hunters hide in the dark. Be careful Scout everything.
"Well, there are a wide variety of footprints, including leather shoes, large leather boots, and ... hoof prints and dance shoes. Some of the footprints are very new, and some are very old. There should be someone in this place." Jacob checked. The footprints on the ground made a cautious gesture towards the demon hunter behind him: "This may be the settlement of the Chaos sect, everyone be careful."
Several demon hunters whispered that they extinguished the torch, and one of the demon hunters walked gently to Jacob and said, "Vice president? What now? What are we going to do to investigate the warehouse?"
Jacob motioned to the demon hunters to be restless, his amber eyes glaring closely at the warehouse door.
"The way the chains are tied in front of the door is very special, which proves that the person in charge of the door or the door was once a sailor."
"The iron gate doesn't look new, and the locks are full of signs of wear and tear, which shows that people often come and go here."
"Jok, are you sure you found it yourself? Wasn't it tempted by something?"
The inquiry of Jacob made the young demon hunter Jock a little ignorant, so he thought back carefully, and then he was a little uncertain and said: "Should ... should it be? I remember shortly after I went deep into the deep mining area, I met a strange group of people, out of curiosity I followed them for a while, and later lost it near the wall. I found it for a long time before I found this entrance. The debris was found at the door of the warehouse. "
"Huh, stupid, I suspect you were tempted by them, but ... this kind of thing is also difficult to say, let's not rush in, now ambush here, everyone is ready." Jacob can not be sure whether Jock is real Was tempted, and the old master demon hunter thought about it carefully and made a decision: "Find a place, we will wait quietly. If Belt wants to ambush us here, then he must have done it. ready."
So a few devil hunters looked for a hidden place on the periphery of the warehouse, hiding themselves, quietly waiting for the development of things. In the darkness, only a few pairs of mutated eyes were left to monitor everything.
An hour passed.
Two hours, three hours ...
After waiting for five hours, a dead warehouse suddenly sounded a lot of human voices, countless torches and loud screaming sounds followed one after another, dozens of guards and several full suits appeared in the original unmanned warehouse Armored mercenary.
"Damn, the brain-dead Oaks said there will be someone here, but we waited a few hours, and there was no fart!"
"Yes! We were deceived!"
"Fuck ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Anyway, we have been ambushing here for six hours according to his request. The **** demon hunters still haven't appeared, so 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 withdrew! Go back to the city and have a big meal!"
"Let's go let's go ~"
A large group of mercenaries and guards scolded the torch. Under the operation of a mercenary, a gate appeared in the originally tightly stitched stone wall. The group of people walked out and disappeared in the gate, and then the stone door closed tightly again. .
"Sure enough, there was an ambush!" The three young demon hunters looked at the crossbows and a few firearms in the hands of the mercenaries, and their hearts were cold. If they rushed in, they might fall into an ambush.
"I knew there was an ambush." Jacob sipped, and then signaled a few people not to worry: "Wait, we'll wait a little longer. These mercenaries don't necessarily leave."
Several restless hunters were a little puzzled by Jacob's order, but still obeyed his orders and continued to wait.
The matter was just as Jacob had expected. Ten minutes later, the mercenaries and guards returned and saw that no one had really appeared before they really left.
The last group of people walked away, and Jacob finally motioned several demon hunters to get up: "The boys are up, start acting!"
The four demon hunters gradually approached the warehouse, unaware that in the passageway they came in, a tall man wearing a high-topped round cap and wearing a blood-red leather smiled: "As always cautious, it is really your style, Ya Each cloth ... tutor! "
"But I know you too well, tutor."
"This warehouse is your cemetery!"
