Lin Xiao found a suitable place in a huge plain more than 500 kilometers away from the original tribe. He let the tauren Jonilla continue to lead the team, and he went to the destination first.
Suspended in mid-air, looking down at the endless earth, Lin Xiao's eyes flickered. He was hesitating.
At this moment, he was making a very critical decision.
It was certain that even with his protection, the crypt people would not have the power to protect themselves in the early stage.
Although they escaped from the original tribe, there was no safe place in the Underdark. No matter how far they escaped, as long as they were in the Underdark, they would be discovered by the drows on the third floor or other races on the first floor. It was impossible to really find a place that no one had discovered.
In other words, the drows would still encounter the robbers.
It was just that now they had changed to a new place. If there was a drows city on the third floor of the Underdark nearby, it would be safe under his protection in the first few years. Even if there was a drows city united, it would be a few years later. He still had a few years to prepare for development.
It was just that the world was unpredictable. This was just the best case scenario in his imagination. Who knew if there would be accidents. For example, in the first year, there would be a drows coalition attacking the crypt people tribe in the second year, or the drows coalition would chase after them from hundreds of kilometers away, and so on.
Therefore, the crypt people must have a certain ability to protect themselves in the early stage.
In this era without modern civilization, the best way for mortals to protect themselves was to build a city.
In the case of the crypt people, it was certainly impossible to build a city, so Lin Xiao had to do it himself.
What he was now struggling with was that he was only an incarnation now, and the divine power he carried was not infinite. At this stage and estimated that within a hundred years, he could not expect the crypt people to provide him with divine power. If he consumed a lot of divine power now, the risk in the future would be greater.
But he had to do it. With the strength of the crypt people, they could not last for a hundred years.
Moreover, as the crypt people tribe grew larger in the future, the drows would certainly not sit back and watch this race that had been slaughtered by them for tens of thousands of years grow up. In the future, they would inevitably be surrounded by the drows.
Then …
"Wealth comes from danger. Let's risk it all!"
Lin Xiao made up his mind. His eyes swept across the huge underground plain, and he took a deep breath. His pupils slowly lit up with the golden light representing divinity, and then spread to his whole body. He quickly turned into a huge golden light man in the shape of a crypt man. His divine power made the crypt refugees in the distance kneel down one after another, and they madly chanted the crypt language that ordinary people couldn't understand.
Lin Xiao ignored them. Divine power surged in his Divine Fire, activating the ability of his Divine Spark — Reality Manipulation. Golden light sprinkled down from the sky, and the ground began to change shape under his will like flowing water.
In theory, as long as a god was strong enough and had enough divine power, they could create a Prime Material Plane out of thin air, or even create a new Crystal Wall.
Lin Xiao burned the divine power stored in his incarnation and quickly raised the ground on the plains. He stretched out a square platform with a diameter of twenty kilometers and a height of one hundred meters according to his will.
This was just the beginning. Next, four square platforms with a diameter of five kilometers and a height of one hundred meters were stretched out around the central platform.
This was not to pull up the city walls, but to directly raise the ground because the crypt men were good at digging holes. No matter how thick the city walls were, they were easy to destroy, but such a large whole was not easy to open.
After finishing this miraculous project, Lin Xiao's divine power was almost consumed, and there were only a little more than 100,000 divine power left.
Next, under his guidance, the crypt men moved to this area. The young crypt men began to dig an underground network around the main platform named Hope Mesa and the surrounding four small platforms.
He summoned a large number of earth elements to cooperate with the crypt men, and softened and dug through some difficult places with the Stone to Mud spell.
Another part of the crypt men and another group of earth elements built a stone wall only three meters high and half a meter wide between the four acropolises. The main purpose was to isolate the line of sight and block ordinary underground monsters.
Then the land in the middle was reclaimed and crops were grown from geothermal hot springs.
Speaking of which, he didn't know if this was the hidden talent of the crypt men. They could accurately find the hidden water storage belt in the ground and draw water up to form small underground ponds. Each tribe of crypt men was built around a small pond as the center.
As Lin Xiao imagined, with the central highland as the center and the four satellite platforms as the auxiliary, crops were planted in the middle of the five highlands. Once there was danger, they would hide underground in the central platform and the four satellite platforms.
After observing for half a month, Lin Xiao left the Minotaur to guard the central platform, and he came to a large stone pillar that supported the earth not far from here. He dug a hole in the stone pillar with a diameter of more than ten kilometers and moved the laboratory again.
This time he didn't study it slowly. First, it was too time-consuming, and second, he didn't have enough divine power.
He threw all the genes of the various races and the crypt men's genes into the Magic Cube for his real body to study, and he took time to leave for the deeper part of the Underdark. The fourth layer of the Underdark.
He heard that there was a kingdom of mind flayers in the fourth layer of the Underdark. He was going to catch some mind flayers to study.
His previous research found that even if the crypt men were more powerful than before, their soul and spirit did not change, and the power of faith they provided did not change.
If their wisdom did not improve, their overall civilization would not improve. The potential of such a race was limited.
He was going to find some mind flayers to see if he could improve the wisdom of the third or fourth generation of crypt men. He didn't want them to have super high spiritual power like the mind flayers, but just to improve it a little, even if they were as stupid as ordinary orcs.
Converging his divine power, Lin Xiao changed himself into a pale drow.
Transcendent Shard of Divinity could only change the form of a creature that had been seen before, not a creature that had never been seen before.
He changed into a very common drow this time and kept sneaking all the way into the third layer of the Underdark.
After carefully sensing the surroundings, he walked in one direction, where there were traces of a large number of drow gathering. He was going to sneak in and see if he could ask for the passage to the fourth layer of the Underdark.
The lower the layer of the Underdark, the fewer passages there were. In order to reduce the threat of the powerful monsters and mind flayers from the fourth layer of the Underdark, the drows would artificially destroy some passages, which made it take a long time for even a true god like him to find a passage.
But as the local snake, the drow must know where there was an underground passage nearby that could be passed through.
This was a small drow city built next to an underground volcano. The volcano was still very active and had been spewing white smoke. A stream of red lava flowed down along the edge of the crater, forming a lava river. The drow had built a large forging workshop on the edge of the lava river. Some grey dwarf slaves and troll slaves were fishing the lava in the lava river and refining the melted metal to forge weapons.
Lin Xiao came to the shadows not far from the city and appeared. Before he had time to look around, he flipped the dagger in his hand and knocked a small arrow away. A white mist flashed and he disappeared. When he reappeared, he was behind a stone pillar more than 20 meters away. He saw a drow girl in black clothes lying behind the stone pillar with a look of surprise.
"What a bad race!"
He stretched out his hand and slapped the drow girl, knocking her out, and carried her away.
When the drow girl woke up, her first reaction was to jump up and look around vigilantly. At a glance, she saw another drow man who was concentrating on the barbecue. She swayed and stabbed the man's back with a dagger.
"Bang!"
A punch flew out of nowhere and hit the drow girl in the face. The drow girl fell straight down.
Not long after, the girl woke up again and saw the drow man sleeping by the extinguished fire. She picked up the dagger that had fallen beside her and sneaked over again. She let go of her hand and a cloud of lime flew out.
"Bang!"
Two teeth mixed with blood spurted out, and the drow girl fell straight down.
When the girl woke up again, the drow man was still sleeping, but she did not dare to go forward. She picked up the fallen dagger and slowly retreated to leave.
After touching a stone pillar, she paused and slowly turned her head to see a big fist flying towards her.
"Bang!"
Seven or eight bloody teeth flew, and the drow girl fell straight down.
When the drow girl woke up again, her first reaction was to raise her hands and cry out incoherently.
"Wait a minute, don't hit me."
A fist stopped in front of her face. After a while, the fist retracted to reveal the drow man. He stared coldly at the drow girl and asked:
"Take me to the nearest passage to the fourth floor of the Underdark."
The drow girl covered her swollen face and nodded with a sad face.
That's a good girl!
Lin Xiao waved his hand in satisfaction and motioned for her to go first.
Drow were like this, it was hard to talk without beating.
It turned out that once they were beaten, the drow were still very obedient. After two days in the complex and rugged Underdark, the drow girl took him to a valley blocked by a high wall. She pointed behind the wall guarded by the drow army and said:
"The nearest passage to the fourth floor of the Underdark is inside."
Lin Xiao sensed carefully and there was indeed an aura that was different from the third floor of the Underdark.
He waved his hand and the drow girl, who was in pain all the way, quickly ran away.
Lin Xiao's figure flashed and disappeared. Not long after, the drow girl came out of the darkness and looked into the distance with a gloomy face:
"This passage is connected to the nest of those evil creatures and monsters. You will die if you go in."
"Bang!"
A fist fell and smashed the girl down. Lin Xiao's figure slowly emerged and said to himself:
"Sneaking around, it's definitely not a good thing."
The drow girl …
But even so, he still hid his figure and bypassed the wall into the valley. At a glance, he saw a hole with a diameter of hundreds of meters in the center of the huge valley. An aura different from the third floor of the Underdark rushed out of the hole, pushing away the air of the third floor and forming a vacuum distortion that ordinary people could not see.
