Chapter 1825 Are You Here to Compete for the Second Place?

"Extremely selfish, lacks empathy, knows neither gratitude nor compassion. To be honest, I really don't want to admit that the gray dwarves are also a branch of the big dwarf family. This makes me feel very ashamed!" Klein looked indignant say.

"I guess the elves on the surface view the drow in the same way." Joan said thoughtfully.

"Hmm... Although I can't understand the pretentiousness of the elves, I can understand their abhorrence towards drow." Klein shrugged, and then said to Joan: "The four on the opposite side are from Grasse. The gray dwarves in Tordi City are quite famous, let me introduce them to you, if you encounter them in the arena, you will know well, brother."

"The leading man in black is one of Glasto's four high priests, named Olga, who is said to be the high-ranking priest of the evil god Radug."

"The gray dwarf warrior in the armor at the back is Montes, and the one next to him is the 'Earth King Sect' monk Mugel." Seeing Joan's confused face, Klein explained, "The Earth King Sect is A school of monks unique to the Underdark, especially suitable for fighting in dark environments, especially popular among the gray dwarves and stone giants."

Joan glanced at the gray dwarf monk, thinking that if he met this guy in the arena, he would take the opportunity to collect his blood samples and analyze the martial arts inheritance of the "Earth King Sect" and the "Duqi Sect" and "Wave Ripple Sect". What's unique about it.

At this time, Klein said to him again: "Brother Joan, pay attention to that gray dwarf riding on the back of the giant worm. This man's name is Master, and he is a ranger. His own strength is average, but the gray dwarf he tamed The city-breaking beetle is very powerful, if we have a conflict with the gray dwarf team on the field, we must be careful of the saliva sprayed by that big beetle, which is as corrosive as the acid breath of an adult black dragon!"

Qiao An knew a lot about city-breaking beetles, and was about to chat with the dwarf brother on this topic, when he suddenly noticed a beam of light rising from the center of the square. In the teleportation array shrouded in magic radiance, a tall and graceful figure loomed, which looked familiar.

"Hey! Joan, look, isn't that the 'Dark Princess' Claudia Bellamy of Oaknell Dungeon?!"

Behind him came the nervous voice of the dwarf mage.

Joan first took a look at the drow female priest who was wearing a fine gold chain mail, wearing flying wing high boots, and carrying a hydra whip out of the teleportation circle. She was indeed from the ruling family of Oaknell Claudia, then turned around and asked Belling:

"She's also an old acquaintance of ours. Would you like to go over and say hello?"

"Forget it! I don't want to be whipped!"

The dwarf mage turned pale with fright, flung the "invisibility cloak" hastily, and disappeared out of thin air, fearing that Claudia would find him and pursue the treasure map he had stolen.

The moment Belling disappeared, Claudia's gaze swept over and paused for a moment on Joan's face, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, as if she didn't expect that this young mage living in the surface world would also run away. Come join the race for survival in the Underdark.

Claudia could hold back her composure, and her face quickly regained her composure. She turned her eyes away from Joan and turned to the participating teams such as Huayuan Township, Temple of Silence, Abyssal Snake Cave, Gray Dwarves, and Stone Giants.

After looking at all the competitors, Claudia suddenly smiled, pretending to be nonchalant and talking to herself.

"A lot of new faces have been added this year, and the competition for the second place in the survival competition is very fierce!"

These words clearly reached the ears of all the contestants, and everyone's expressions changed.

Although Claudia didn't say it directly, anyone who is not a fool can tell that she has already placed her team in a position to win the championship. As for the other participating teams, in her eyes, they are at best contenders for the second place .

The domineering declaration of the "Dark Princess" seemed to be mocking their competitors face to face, and Scholz, Gumoduo, and Robin Hood couldn't help showing anger. If Klein didn't dissuade them in time, they would have sprayed them back on the spot.

But more contestants, especially those who participated in the previous survival competition, such as Medea and Gray Bird, were a little unconvinced, but they had to admit that Claudia did have arrogance.

"Joan, do you know which team won the survival competition last time?" Medea asked in a low voice.

Joan hadn't inquired about this matter before, but judging from Medea's demeanor and the atmosphere of the scene, it was not difficult to guess the correct answer.

"Is it the drow team led by Claudia?"

"That's right, as the last champion, Claudia's team is also the favorite to win the survival competition this year, but compared to the last one, Claudia's teammates seem to have changed."

Joan was reminded by Medea's words, and turned to look at the drow team.

Claudia was followed by three people and one spider. Among them, Joan was most familiar with Pyrrhus, a drow conjurer who was good at summoning spells. The drow warriors with rapiers on their waists looked very capable, most of them were high-level fighters or assassins.

"Claudia's last teammates, this time only the 'faceless man' Pyrrhus and the two drow warriors are still in the team, and there is a high-level 'trickster' named Varys missing. , the replacement member...presumably that black spider that is as huge as a giant dragon."

Medea looked at the spider-shaped monster beside Claudia with curiosity in her eyes.

"Joan, you are an expert in the study of insect-shaped creatures, do you recognize that big black spider?"

In fact, Joan had noticed Claudia's spider servant a long time ago. At first, he saw the huge size of this monster, its eight slender and slender legs, especially its upper body raised up like a praying mantis. Specialized catching feet——This unique stance immediately reminded Joan of the demon-hunting spider named "Lingling".

Qiao An was very familiar with the magic fluctuations emitted by the big spider, and it was indeed Lingling's breath. However, after careful observation, he denied his first impression.

"Medea, I can only confirm that that guy doesn't look like a witcher spider. As for whether she is a supernatural arachnid or some kind of magical beast, I need to spend more time and observe carefully."

The witcher spider is covered with blue bristles and looks furry, but this monster has a dark complexion, and its smooth shell shows a metallic luster.

Lingling has eight single eyes that are symmetrically distributed on the face, all of which are dark red, while the black giant spider opposite has only four single eyes, and they are shining red, yellow, blue, and blue magic energy.

"This guy is definitely not a demon hunter spider, but what kind of monster is she? Why does she have a faint, Lingling-like aura?"

With a hint of surprise and uncontrollable curiosity, Joan quietly activated the "advanced internal vision technique" at the risk of angering Claudia, secretly peeping into the details of the giant black spider.
