Chapter 550 Underground Ocean
The spider goddess Rose is the same as the Demon King God. She is also a racial god, and most drow believe in her.
But this goddess is a dogecoin.
Not only is she on the list of mortal enemies of almost all gods in the good camp, but she also doesn't have any good reviews from the neutral camp or even the evil camp. Even if she is not a mortal enemy, she will be treated like a piece of shit and no one will be willing to ally with her.
For example, she demands that her followers obey the law, but in fact she is a chaotic evil deity, not lawful evil.
Naturally, neither the neutral gods nor the evil gods in the lawful camp would look upon her favorably.
So, will the gods of the chaotic camp consider her an ally?
No, her cruel and capricious character means that she is not believed by anyone.
Occasionally she would cooperate with the two evil gods, Maid of Pain or Mara, the Beast God, but they would only use each other. Other than that, no one even among the evil gods wanted to partner with her.
Even her own children, such as Eilistraee, have parted ways with her.
Rose was originally the wife of the Elf King Corellon. She was still known as the Weaver of Destiny at the time. Later, she teamed up with Mara to break into the realm of the elven gods. In the end, the rebellion failed and she was cursed to look like an elf on the upper body and a spider on the lower body. , and then fled into the endless abyss where the demons lived. She occupied one of the layers in the abyss and used it as a divine realm.
But this dog ratio cannot be underestimated.
When Rose began to act as the Spider Goddess, she only had moderate divine power, which was neither above nor below among the gods. As a result, she made so many enemies that not only was she not killed, but now she has become a powerful divine power.
The drow, known as the dark elves, are the embodiment of the will of the Spider Goddess. They have a bad reputation but no one dares to offend them.
From goddesses to drow, although they are all dog coins, they are also a group of dog coins that cannot be underestimated and must be treated with caution.
Regardless of what the drow want to do when they come to the ruins, head-on conflict is very dangerous.
Aldai also knew this very well. They gave several magic alarms before going to bed in the middle of the night. The three of them took turns to keep vigil to ensure that someone was awake at any time and spent the night safely.
Early in the morning, the three of them finished their preparations and set out to continue exploring the ruins.
No matter what is there in the ruins that attracts drow, as long as the Demon King's Ring is taken away, nothing else matters.
Reopening the hidden door, looking in the direction the three of them were going, they saw that the obsidian gate that had been put down before was still poking there without any movement. At least this proved that no one passed by here last night.
So the three of them turned around and continued to move along the passage. The ancient dwarf building did not change because of a few more footsteps. It was always just as quiet as death. You will feel like you are walking in an underground tomb. Especially when using dark vision spells for concealment instead of lighting dancing lights, even the darkness that can be seen through will be surrounded like living creatures.
The situation when she came to get the Demon King's Ring this time was far beyond Aldai's expectations. She thought that at most, someone would stop her. As long as the Demon King took action, everything would be fine.
But now it seems that I still keep things simple.
If nothing else, the ruins alone are strange enough.
From a visual inspection, what I have seen so far are dwarf-style buildings, like a dwarf underground city. It can be said that it has been abandoned, all the traps are in good condition, and there are no signs of invasion.
What happened to its residents?
Why is the Demon King’s Ring placed here?
Wild bear mercenary, drow, Glow Ion Yin Order, every key word was spinning in my mind, but I couldn't connect any clues. Aldai, who was thinking as she walked, was held by Zora's shoulders, signaling her not to leave.
Nemea, who was exploring the way in front, made a gesture, listened for a moment, and then ran back quietly and whispered: "I heard the sound of the waves and what sounded like voices, but It’s so blurry that I can’t tell.”
There is the sound of waves under the ground. Is this normal?
It’s actually normal.
The underground world is much broader than people imagine. The underground community composed of a large number of caves and underground cavities does not make people feel depressed. Sometimes you can't even tell whether you are underground.
It is not surprising that after being eroded by water flow over a long period of time, countless underground rivers eventually merged together and turned into underground lakes or even oceans.
The trouble was that Nemea couldn't have misheard the voice, and it probably meant there was an enemy ahead.
Since there were no forks in the road, they would definitely encounter them if they continued to move forward. The three of them nodded and prepared for battle, approaching the direction of the sound more cautiously.
As the distance gets closer, the sound of the waves becomes clearer and clearer, and the rustling sound is like the gentle sea water caressing the beach. If it is a sunny place, it may feel comfortable, but in this deep underground, it will only make people feel fear.
However, the voice Nemea mentioned before was never heard. I wonder if he has left.
Following the sounds and passages, the three of them walked for almost half an hour. At this time, the passage ahead showed obvious signs of damage, and the masonry fell off to reveal dark rocks and soil.
Further forward, they immediately saw a small beach.
This beach is shaped like a horseshoe. The white foam rolled up by the waves underground is pushed to the shore layer by layer, and eventually breaks and disappears.
Nemea approached the tunnel and looked around. She didn't know what she saw. Her whole body froze obviously, and she hurriedly gestured to Zora and Aldee to come over.
After passing through the damaged exit of the tunnel, they clearly saw a huge, severely corrupted ship stranded on the other side of the beach. The sails on it were vaguely tattered into rags, and the half-length siren-shaped bow was visible. They are all covered with moss, and the wooden hulls of the boats are also covered with mushrooms in many places.
How could a ship sail to such a ghost place?
And more importantly, the ship was not stranded here for long.
Ships in this era will have magic involved in the construction phase, such as enhancing corrosion resistance and structural strength. They will indeed not rot easily.
But it's just wood after all.
As the saying goes, it can be dry for thousands of years and wet for ten thousand years. It can only last half a year if it is not dry or wet.
The environment at the site was very unfavorable for wood preservation. When Aldai and the others came, they could still see the complete hull, indicating that the ship would not have been here for more than two to three hundred years, or even a hundred years. It’s possible within.
In this ruins from the mythical age, Aldai and the others were not the first visitors, there were already many people who had come before.
