Chapter 62, The Plantagenet Family's Badge of Honor
At the entrance of the underground city.
As the last underground lava lizard emerged.
A caravan consisting of 500 gray dwarves and thousands of lava lizard camels appeared on the ground.
These gray dwarves are from the underground Black River Tribe.
This is a medium-sized tribe with tens of thousands of gray dwarves.
They live by the underground Black River, where they built the Black River City.
In the Glory Era, the Black River City was invited by the Plantagenet Family to open up a commercial trade route to the North.
Because the chief of the Black River Tribe had adventured underground with the Duke of Plantagenet when he was young, they had a deep friendship.
In addition, when the Black River City was built, the young Duke of Plantagenet also helped the dwarves who had just migrated to the Black River Tribe to kill a mind flayer, preventing the gray dwarves of the Black River Tribe from becoming slaves of the mind flayer.
In addition, the most critical thing is that the weapons forged by the gray dwarves of the Black River City need a market for sale.
The Black River City is a newly built underground city, and it is located in the wild North.
Most of the tribes around are monsters and demons.
The closest tribes are orc tribes, and the orcs have always had a low reputation.
As a new force, the caravan will be robbed as soon as it appears.
So the letter from the Duke of Plantagenet at this time made them hit it off.
In order to open up this trade route, the gray dwarfs spent a lot of money to buy an underground magic earthworm.
It took a full five years.
A passage was opened from Black River City to the outer periphery of the Plantagenet family's pioneering territory in the north.
Why is it the outer periphery? Because the Plantagenet family could not completely trust the gray dwarves.
So the two sides agreed to trade goods in the outer periphery.
The place of transaction was also chosen nearby.
For this reason, the Plantagenet family built a military station and Shiquan Village here.
Shiquan Village is the place of trade, and the military station is to be prepared.
The two sides also started trading.
The weapons brought by the gray dwarves provided sufficient equipment for the Plantagenet pioneering territory.
The Plantagenet family was able to build a giant fortress on the edge of the dark forest where no one had set foot.
It was like a sharp knife inserted into the orc territory.
The Black River Tribe also quickly became wealthy by trading with the Plantagenet Frontier.
From a small tribe of only a thousand people at the beginning, it developed into a medium-sized tribe of ten thousand people.
At the same time, its reputation began to spread in the North.
Customers continued to come to Black River City to buy weapons.
It was not long before the Black River Tribe would develop from a medium-sized tribe to a large tribe.
And their Black River City would become the first large underground city in the North.
Even become the king of the underground world in the North.
Unfortunately, with the advent of the Cataclysm, everything turned into a bubble.
As a lower-level creature in the old continent, the gray dwarves could not resist the erosion of the fog.
Almost in a moment, their souls were taken away by the gray fog.
They became puppets of the fog, and the power of the fog shaped their new souls.
Although they still look like gray dwarves.
But they are no longer creatures of the old continent.
After becoming puppets of the mist, the Black River Gray Dwarf Tribe in the North began to fall into a long sleep.
They were not awakened until the appearance of the human lord.
However, it was not Fang Yuan who first awakened the gray dwarves of Black River City.
It was the lords of the underground camp and the orc camp.
Because after the prosperity of Black River City, the gray dwarves built a large number of passages leading to various places.
After these passages were discovered by the lords of Blue Star, they followed these passages to discover this underground city.
Thus awakening the sleeping gray dwarves.
The awakened gray dwarves still have all their original memories.
But at this time, they are essentially slaves of the gray mist.
Crazy worship of the gods of the mist.
After being awakened, they received orders to attack all the lords who appeared.
For this reason, the gray dwarves began to send their former merchant groups, pretending to be traveling caravans, along the passages opened up by the Glory Calendar.
Looking for the lord from Blue Star.
In other words, this is the monster under the rule of the fog actively searching for the Blue Star lord and attacking.
In the battlefield of the Ten Thousand Worlds, this kind of high-level monster generally only appears in cities of a slightly larger scale.
This is why the Blue Star lords hide in the city.
And this gray dwarf that appeared not far from Fang Yuan's territory is a hunting caravan from Black River City.
When they got out of the underground city.
They immediately found the Wasteland Territory shrouded in golden light.
After so many years of war, the gray dwarves whose souls were shaped by the fog also learned how to distinguish the strength of the lord.
So they saw at a glance that Fang Yuan was a novice lord.
Although it was still shrouded in golden light at this time.
But as long as this time passes, the golden light disappears.
This lord will become vulnerable.
After discovering this sign.
The leader of the gray dwarves did not hesitate at all and immediately ordered all the caravans to climb onto the ground.
He was ready to lead his gray dwarves to destroy the lord's territory alone.
And if he could do it, the mist would directly grant him stronger power.
For the leader of the gray dwarves, this was equivalent to the favor of the gods.
For this, he could sacrifice everything.
When all the gray dwarves came up.
The leader of the gray dwarves looked at Fang Yuan's territory.
He immediately gave the order: "Leon, we have to disguise ourselves as a caravan and go to negotiate with these lords of the other world."
"This lord of the other world should be a novice lord."
"As long as we get his consent, we can lead the caravan into the territory wrapped in golden light."
"The gray dwarf knight is a red level 7, with a lava lizard as a mount, and his strength is comparable to the purple level 2."
"Leon, you and I are both purple level commanders."
"The other party is a novice lord, as long as we enter his territory."
"This level of human lords can't stop our attack at all."
"Rush into the territory and kill the lord of the other world, the great mist spirit will directly grant us power."
"If we can please the mist spirit, perhaps we can directly upgrade from purple level to orange level."
"In the glory era of the old continent, the orange level is equivalent to the epic level!"
The deputy commander who was wearing heavy armor and riding a lava lizard heard it.
A greedy look appeared in his eyes.
He raised the hammer in his hand.
"Orange level!"
"Gods of the Mist!"
"I praise you!"
The deputy commander named Leon shouted.
"Put all the goods in place."
"Form a caravan."
"Scout!"
"Go to the lord's formation and tell him that we are a caravan of a friendly dungeon lord."
"Come and trade with him."
"We brought ten purple-level high-level goods, one hundred ordinary red-level mid-level goods, and more than three hundred blue-level low-level goods."
"If he is willing to trade and allow us to build a storehouse here, we can trade it to him at half the price."
"Yes, Lord Leon."
Soon.
The gray dwarf riding the lava lizard quickly arrived at the edge of Fang Yuan's territory.
"Honorable Lord."
"We are from the Black River City in the underground city, and we have no ill intentions."
"We just want to trade with you in a friendly manner."
"This time, I brought it under the order of the Lord of Black River."
On the city wall at this moment.
Fang Yuan listened to the voice coming from below.
I couldn't help but say: "These monsters eroded by the fog, have they even learned to disguise themselves?"
"If my lord level had not reached level five, I could see their panels."
"To be honest, with so many goods, I might be tempted!"
"From their proficiency, I'm afraid they have cheated some lords of Blue Star."
Lilith shrugged after hearing this.
"My Lord, it is obvious that these creatures of the old continent that have been eroded by the fog and replaced their souls have been transformed into a new civilization."
"In the era of the Great Cataclysm, our mages discussed, studied, and even dissected it."
"The final conclusion is that the eroding fog carries a force of rules from another world."
"This force directly transforms the creatures on the continent into creatures of their civilization."
"What you see now are just these lower-level races."
"In the future, those legendary and demigod-level creatures will be even more terrifying after being transformed after death."
"Not only do they have the strength they had in their lifetime, but they also have more terrifying wisdom than in their lifetime."
"They can even easily lurk around you without being noticed."
"Think back then!"
"That's how I was killed."
"Haha, my closest comrade-in-arms has actually been a puppet of the fog!"
At this point, Lilith's eyes rarely showed a bit of sadness.
But this sadness was fleeting.
Then she said in a relaxed tone.
"Lord, you may meet another me in the future."
"Don't hold back when the time comes!"
"The soul in that body is no longer me, but a mist soul created by the gods from the mist world!"
Fang Yuan nodded slowly.
And at this moment.
The flame mages who went out had arrived at the designated location.
At this moment, Lilith saw the opportunity.
She jumped down from the city wall.
Driven by magic power, she flew out of the territory.
She pointed the magic wand in her hand directly at the gray dwarf in the distance.
"Explode!"
She raised her hand and threw a series of explosive fireballs.
The gray dwarf leader on the opposite side had no time to react.
He was killed instantly.
Just when the entire gray dwarf caravan was at a loss for what to do.
The flame mages who had already detoured from both sides simultaneously cast chain fireballs.
They began to kill with precision.
At this time, on the city wall, Fang Yuan saw the flying spells on the battlefield.
He was so excited that he wanted to personally go on the field to kill a gray dwarf.
However, as a magic pattern constructor, he had only 0.5 combat power in the early stage.
Going up would be suicide.
However, when Fang Yuan saw the magic crossbow tower on the side, his eyes suddenly lit up.
With a thought, he teleported into the magic crossbow tower.
He switched to manual mode directly.
Excited, he pulled the trigger and shot the first arrow.
However, he had not received special training.
The arrow shot directly deviated by several hundred meters.
It was nailed to the feet of a flame mage.
The flame mage was scared into a cold sweat.
Just when Fang Yuan was secretly thankful,
Lilith's voice came from outside.
"Lord, give up your boring ideas. Standing still is the biggest help to us!"
Fang Yuan wiped his sweat and turned the magic crossbow to automatic mode with an embarrassed look.
And at this moment.
Fang Yuan heard a prompt sound.
"Ding, kill the Black River City Merchants, Black River City's reputation -1000 points, and will start to actively attack you."
"Ding, loot cleaning begins."
Fang Yuan was surprised when he heard the voice and looked up.
He found that the war had just ended.
A whole caravan of gray dwarves and lizards were all killed instantly.
"So strong!"
And then Fang Yuan saw Lilith return to the city wall.
She picked up a badge and threw it over.
"Lord, this may be useful to you!"
Fang Yuan took the badge and opened the item panel.
When he saw the name, Fang Yuan was a little surprised.
"The glory badge of the Plantagenet family?"
But when he saw the quality, he was a little disappointed.
"It's just a purple item!"
He then scrolled down and saw the purpose of the badge.
Fang Yuan exclaimed: "Fuck!"
"Does this mean that I may have a chance to get a golden building?"
