The blood eagles searched the entire area, resting twice to recover their stamina. When the hazy sun set in the west, the mapping function of Dafei's Detection had already finished exploring the distribution of the islands in the foggy waters. Outside the Misty Sea Region, it was still the usual arrangement of thousands of islands. This foggy sea region was indeed a special existence in this place.
Now, everyone was amazed by the map that Dafei had drawn.
There were a total of 23 islands in the Misty Waters. The largest island was right in the middle, and every island had a staircase that led to the underground. At the same time, they did not find any buildings for hermits to live in. There were only six islands with lighthouses, and the layout of these six lighthouses was a very regular hexagon.
Seeing this, Elena immediately understood. "These six lighthouses are not ordinary lighthouses. They form a huge hexagon formation. It might be some kind of summoning and control function, or it might be a defense function. Considering that this powerhouse might have escaped from the dwarven prison, it's very likely that this place is used to defend against pursuers, or to defend against Naga. But —"
At this point, Elena frowned. "As a wizard, I can sense powerful existences nearby from the magical waves in the air, but I don't feel any here. It's very doubtful whether there are any powerhouses living in this area. To uncover the mystery of this island, we can only go underground and visit these six lighthouses one by one."
Hangerval nodded. "It's even better if there are no powerhouses. No matter who this formation is used to defend against, this underground tunnel must be very dangerous. We only need to send a small number of people down, and the rest will wait here."
Vallee immediately volunteered. "I'll count myself in!"
Hangerval laughed. "Let's each send ten people who are especially good at fighting. Including our friend's Earth Elemental, twenty people should be enough."
"Twenty?" Dafei was stunned. "Isn't that too few?"
Hangerval shook his head. "The underground terrain is narrow, and it's not good for large armies to fight. Also, all kinds of landslides and traps can easily cause unnecessary casualties." At this point, his tone changed. "How about this, let's go down and take a look. If the situation doesn't look good, we'll come back and send more troops!"
Dafei nodded. "That's good too. By the way, can I bring my ballista along? "
Damn it, I was bored to death in the forest and assembled two crossbow cannons, but I never had a chance to use them. How can I, a Guru, endure this?
Eileen chuckled and said, "The team won't dare to move too fast in the unknown underground anyway. It's good to bring him along. He can make up for the team's lack of ranged attacks."
Everyone nodded. "Alright! Let's do that! "
Wahaha! My ballista is hungry and thirsty! Since the tunnel was narrow and not suitable for large armies to fight, it was the perfect place for the crossbow cannons. Who knew how many of them would be pierced to death with one cannon shot.
Now, the selected elite team had gathered. In order to push the cart and reload the bullets, Dafei had brought a few more Flower Demons.
"Depart!"
The staircase at the entrance flashed, and the Earth Elemental meat shield entered first. The scenery changed, and the team appeared in a dark underground tunnel. However, before he could get a clear look at the situation, a red light exploded on Dafei's screen!
— System Notification: Warning! You have entered the alert range of the Underground Guards. Battle begins!
Holy shit! They really blocked the way!
The Earth Elemental Boss that had entered first had already blocked the way and started fighting with the opponents.
Boom! A bolt of lightning cut through the darkness. Elena led the team to attack. In the lightning, dozens of black figures in the dark tunnel all had a "200!" damage!
This damage was shared to the point that it was hard to look at! With such high Magic Resistance, what about Physical Resistance?
Without saying anything, Dafei waved his hands and released the ballista. Two ballista that had already been reloaded "Bang!" "453!" "440!" "450!"
With a loud bang, the large figure at the very front suddenly collapsed!
"So it's also an Earth Elemental!" Elena did not say anything else and a ball of fire burned in her hands. Boom! A wall of fire exploded in the tunnel in front, and the entire tunnel was covered in a sea of fire!
Dozens of tall figures of Earth Elementals appeared in the sea of fire. Although they were not as big as Dafei, they were at least Elite-Level experts. At this time, all kinds of "300!" "Elemental Chain Damage 150" and "Defense Reduction" kept appearing in the wall of fire!
— Wall of Fire: Creates a wall of fire on the battlefield. Any unit that passes through the wall of fire will be damaged. Learning Prerequisite: Advanced Destruction Magic Master-level Wall of Fire magic damage = 20 + 20 x Mana. Mana Consumption: 100 points.
For Elena, who had two sets of godly equipment and 170 points of Mana, the power of the Wall of Fire was unbearable. The Elemental Chain Damage was the additional damage caused by the fire's suppression of earth. This additional damage was unique to the Dark Elves. Defense reduction was the special effect of the Flame Master. The Dark Elves' fighting style was to use suitable magic to deal with suitable enemies.
At this time, in the narrow tunnel, Dafei's high-defense Earth Elementals blocked off all the opponents. The opponents could only continue to suffer huge amounts of damage in the flames until they were defeated and died.
These Earth Elementals were not useless melee fighters. They could throw rocks at the back of the team. Even the narrow terrain did not affect their combat ability. This was the advantage of Earth Elementals. Fortunately, Dafei's tall Earth Elemental blocked off the tunnel. He alone took all the rock attacks and completed his mission as a meat shield.
Finally, the last Earth Elemental fell under the bombardment of the Sea of Fire Lightning Ballista. At this time, Dafei's Earth Elemental's HP was less than a third. But it did not matter. With its overpowered 1% recovery per second, its HP would be full in a minute.
— System Notification: Battle ended! You have obtained 170,000 EXP.
"Victory!" The dwarves cheered excitedly.
Hangevar smiled bitterly. "Friend, do you still think that 20 people is too little?"
Vallee sighed. "It's all this lord's team fighting. We are squeezed at the back and do not even have a chance to intervene."
Dafei chuckled. "There are quite a lot of people. It's just that the EXP is too little."
Elena said seriously, "Master, these Earth Elementals are not dead. They are actually the same as the creatures in the Divine Realm."
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. He immediately took out the Earth Element Divine Artifact Shard and placed it on one of the Earth Elemental fragments. As expected, a wisp of pale yellow smoke was sucked into the Divine Artifact Shard.
Hangevar laughed. "How cunning. When we thought that we had killed them and walked over, they resurrected and attacked us."
Vallee shook his head and sighed. "If that's the case, the Water Elementals in the sea are not dead, right?"
Dafei was shocked. He then smiled bitterly. "Do I have to use the Divine Artifact Shard to destroy the thousands of Water Elementals?"
Vallee suddenly realized something. "Master! You can't! These Water Elementals are the reason why this archipelago can exist in Naga's territory. If we completely destroy them, Naga will attack this place. When that happens, there will be no place for us to hide! "
Hangevar was also stunned. "According to what you said, we can't completely destroy the Earth Elementals here either? Their existence is to defend against the Kingdom's pursuers, right? "
Dafei suddenly understood. He immediately recalled the Divine Artifact Shard and stopped absorbing. "That's right! We are going to develop and settle down here. We can't destroy these things. That would be destroying our own Great Wall! "
Elena said in a low voice, "Master is right. If the lighthouse formation on the island is used to control these Earth Elementals, then as long as we control the formation and obtain control, these Earth Elementals can be used by us. "
Dafei was pleasantly surprised. "We can recruit so many soldiers?"
Elena shook her head and smiled. "If this person is still on the island, then we can't be sure. If this person is not on the island, then to maintain the existence of so many troops, we need a control formation. Otherwise, these Earth Elementals will scatter in no time. "
Dafei's heart skipped a beat. That's right! If the players stationed their troops in the wilderness for a long time without taking care of them, the number of troops would dwindle until they all ran away. But there was not a single building here. This was the wilderness!
Hangevar furrowed his brows. "However, if we don't completely destroy these Earth Elementals, our troops may be attacked from both sides. When that happens, casualties are inevitable."
Vallee immediately said righteously, "If we can't avoid sacrifices, then leave this difficult task to me. I'll call some of our brothers down!"
Damn it! I know you're trying to show off, but don't take the sacrifice of your subordinates lightly. You've been an official for so long, but you still haven't changed. Even if you don't feel the pain, I do! This is an illness, it needs to be treated!
Dafei immediately waved his hand. "I have a way, we have more people! I've seen elemental creatures resurrect before. It's a slow process, and the resurrection process is extremely weak. It's extremely easy to kill them again. So, we can arrange a few brothers to guard every place where an Earth Elemental falls. Then, they can forget about getting up! "
The three of them were overjoyed. "As expected of our brothers!" "As expected of our lord!" "As expected of our master!"
Wahahaha! Dafei laughed out loud. "I'm so smart and awesome!" That's right, we have 1,400 people. Can't we just have 20 people working? We have to be mobilized at the critical moment!
Everyone immediately returned to the island and organized everyone into groups.
Vallee's foolish idea was not accepted, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied. After thinking for a while, he suggested again, "Sir, considering the possibility of mutation in the underground environment, it's not as simple as stationing a few brothers at each location. We have to maintain contact at all times. We should also form a few mobile patrol teams to coordinate with each other. This way, we can use the loudspeaker to sound the alarm whenever there's an anomaly. Then, our patrol team can rush over as reinforcements. My men can take on this task."
What the heck, no wonder he's been a prison warden for a long time! What a talent! Dafei said happily, "That makes sense. I'll leave it to you!"
Vallee was overjoyed. "I won't let you down!"
