Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 464: Underground home

Underground, it should have been dull. But the scene in front is enough to subvert the normal people's understanding of the underground tunnel. There has never been a race, even a dwarf who is good at digging the ground, and can create such an amazing masterpiece in such a short time.

The huge circular pothole presents a spiral downward stepped structure, and twelve pillars deliberately retained and reinforced support the top of the underground space. On the arc-shaped dome, the roots of some plants penetrate the soil layer and hang naturally. The space of the pits is smaller and smaller, but do n’t be blinded by this illusion. On the inverted cone-shaped walls, there are a large and small number of densely packed channels, which are arranged irregularly in a spiral shape. Beside the ladder.

The space at the bottom looks smaller, just because the lower the passage, the larger the room behind them. For example, the room where the mutant ratmen leaders gathered for the meeting was on the penultimate floor. As for the deepest room, they were more used as warehouses for food and other materials.

What illuminates the underground world is not a burning torch or a combination of delicate lenses as used in the Pharmacist Association. It is here that the luminous moss naturally growing in the soil and the luminous bacteria specially cultivated by the rats class. This causes the light in the entire crypt to be dim green, but for the residents who live here, their visual organs are more suitable for the low-light environment.

Gloria standing at the top of the crypt can clearly see that the bottom layer is commanding companions and controlled native squirrel laborers.

"His Royal Highness, you are not safe here. The scout has informed the approach of the unknown, and the important materials of the upper level have been moved to the lower level." A ratman who was behind Gloria was waiting for a long time to see the former The lord's daughter said after she moved.

"Crow, standing here, what do you see?" Gloria did not follow the advice of the bodyguard. Her eyes were still on the magnificent underground complex.

The guard called Crow was puzzled for a moment, and then respectfully walked to the position about half a step behind Gloria, where he could also see the scene below. "I saw my home, Your Highness. Our home."

"Is it ..." The daughter of the lord thought about the guard, she knew that Crow was just an ordinary farm boy before the outbreak of the plague, and came to the Valley City after experiencing the plague of the rodent and "lucky" to become a mutant Converge with other mutants. It was precisely because of his simplicity and bravery that Hal and several other members of the council would let him be guarded by Gloria as a bodyguard.

Speaking of protection, in fact Craw ’s mission is like a maid who was responsible for taking care of Gloria ’s diet and daily life. He faithfully executed the orders of the members of the council to keep the nominally most noble lady from danger. Until recently, Gloria did not think that this was wrong. As the daughter of the lord, she was used to a life in captivity like a canary. She was used to only talking about specific topics and avoiding the scenery outside the wall. Not seeing. But everything is different now. The canary that has seen the sky will not return to the cage. Even if it chooses to rest in the bird cage, it will guarantee that it can freely leave.

Gloria knows how mutants, including Crow, think of themselves. The last descendant of the Salon family is nothing more than that. They protect themselves only for psychological comfort. They treat themselves as His Royal Highness only because they need a nominal leader. As for real decision-making, it is never something that you can interfere with. Gloria was well aware of this, but she was not dissatisfied with it, because as a member of the Salon family, she remembered her father, the old Earl of Salon, who had said the most.

"You have to be the person they want you to be." If the lords need protectors, the lord must be a general. If they need law enforcement, the lord must be the executioner. Now, what the mutant rats need is a connection that convinces them that they are still human. As a legal and orthodox heir to the Kingdom of Saron, Gloria must and can only become their spiritual leader.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?" Crow asked with some doubt, Gloria's voice was so low when he repeated his father's instructions that he didn't hear it.

"Nothing. What do you think of the debate between Blood Beard and Lord Hal?" The lord's daughter shook her head and asked. Bloodbeard is the former mercenary who previously proposed sending troops to intercept the intruder in Parliament.

Crow did not expect to be asked this question. He bowed his head and thought for a long time before he said, "Forgive me dull, Your Highness. I am just a farmer, and I will give sheep to people when I am on a farm. I do n’t know anything about it. I ca n’t answer the question you asked. Because it seems to me that the two adults are right. "

"Really." Gloria's tone was a little disappointed, but she understood that Crowe was right. She can't force someone who doesn't have experience and knowledge to make judgments about the uncertain situation. But she did not end the conversation, "So, if you are given the opportunity to choose, do you want to continue to be a farmer?"

The bodyguard looks a little stunned, but this question can be answered for Crow. He shook his head firmly, "No, Your Highness. If you can, I hope to be a doctor, like the one who saved us. The same as Mr. Cheese. Oh! I mean, as long as it can save people, I do n’t want to sit on par with that adult ... "

"Haha ~ www.readwn.com ~ may have been amused by the panic of the guard, Gloria unconsciously wanted to reach out and cover her mouth, but her hand was no longer smooth and her mouth became convex. The kiss part, but this cannot make her frustrated now, at most it is just a little embarrassing because the old habits are difficult to change, "He is not a doctor. Although if he were to be a doctor, I would say that the pharmacists of the whole kingdom would be ashamed of self-harm. "

"Please forgive my ignorance, Your Highness, I ..." Crow realized that he had said the wrong thing. He bowed in panic and wanted to apologize, but was turned up by Gloria.

"You don't need to apologize, my poor Crow. Everyone is ignorant, we think we know everything, but in fact, all we see is the base of a high tower." The female ratman said, and it appeared Another scene emerged, which was inside the Grey Tower, which changed her whole world view.

"Let's go down, don't let Mr. Hal wait," she said, taking the lead toward the lower part of the crypt. Crawford amnesty quickly followed behind Gloria.

But at this time, a large number of native ratmen ran over the position of two people under the leadership of three or four mutant ratmen. One of the leaders stood before seeing Gloria and shouted, "Your Highness! Get out of there! Enemy attack!"

"Boom!" A huge cracking sound came from the dome, and a large number of soil pieces smashed down with rocks like rain, striking the unprepared rats.

Gloria subconsciously blocked the dust from above with her arms, fortunately allowing her to be a distance away from the origin of the collapse. The lord's daughter shook off the sand on her arm and looked up at the top of the cave, where a huge, ugly and unusual millipede was slowly digging out.
