A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

We continued to ride in the carriage along the road, and after passing some familiar hills, we could see a corner of the Mushasar Desert.

However, what caught the eye at this moment was not a dead desert, but yellow sand that covered the sky and the sun, like a prison wall, tightly enveloping this area.

"It really is covering the entire area... a bit like the blizzard barrier in the north." Beora said, raising her hand and looking into the distance.

"But this is not made of magic...it's real flying sand." said Lulu.

"Fortunately, people can still pass..."

"Okay, we're going to turn here."

Stone said.

"Turn? Where to?"

"Of course it's underground, long-tailed girl, do you want to go in and eat sand..."

"All right......"

The group changed direction and headed towards the hill where Wu Yue had spent the night and where they met Shi Dong.

......

Moravia above ground entrance.

"Open the door!"

In front of the huge stone gate, Shi Dong knocked on the door again, calling for the gatekeeper.

"Wait a minute, this door hasn't been used for a while, maybe something went wrong..."

After a while, the door creaked open.

"Hey, what's taking so long this time? I've been waiting for a long time!"

Shi Dong said unhappily to the gatekeeper dwarf.

"Why is it you, Shi Dong, again...you're sleeping soundly..."

"I was just wondering...it's always you who's the gatekeeper, right?"

"You're probably the only one who's still going through this door... It's good that you've left someone to guard it..."

"We have distinguished guests these two days, so please keep your eyes open. Didn't I say that before I left?"

"Yes, yes, go in quickly, and be careful next time..."

The soldier who opened the door was obviously a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. He waved his hand and turned to walk into the small stone house.

"Alas... virtue... no wonder he is still guarding the door for so long..."

......

"Let's stop in Moravia tonight. It's still about half a day's journey from here to the ground, so don't be too anxious. It just so happens that you and your friends haven't been to the great Mithril City yet, so I'll take you on a good tour..."

Walking in the tunnel, Shi Dong talked incessantly.

"Uncle Shi Dong, I have a question that I've wanted to ask for a long time. I once saw a tunnel in the underground of the Kingdom of Dorok that was very similar to the one here. It almost ran through the entire northern border of the Kingdom of Dorok. Could it be your work as well?"

"…The structure is similar? How similar?"

“It’s exactly the same.”

"Then it must have been dug by the dwarves. No other race can do that except us."

Shi Dong said, patting his chest proudly.

"Ah, uncle is bragging again..." said Kelulu.

"From what you said, have you ever seen other races do this?"

"I just saw it not long ago..."

But Lulu looked at the other people present.

Remulos who sank into the ground is a living example. It is true that dwarves are not the only ones who can do similar things.

"The Church's extra-ritual magic..."

"really?"

Shi Dong confirmed with some doubt.

The dwarves went underground tens of thousands of years ago, and the Florence Empire was destroyed nearly ten thousand years ago.

During this period, human development and innovation of magic reached a pinnacle.

Especially in ritual magic, which can be regarded as a strategic weapon.

Humans deeply understand that it is difficult for an individual to match the power of the immortal species...but there is strength in numbers.

The advantage in numbers is enough to make up for the gap in individual strength.

That is why humans have been able to repeatedly defeat demons and this feat continues to this day.

And in the ten thousand years since the fall of the Florence Empire, to what extent has humanity's understanding of magic reached?

That "Holy Light Judgment" may have told everyone the answer...

By putting ritual magic, or even super-ritual magic, into some kind of container like a scroll, it becomes a weapon of destruction that can be used anywhere and at any time. In an instant, it can burst out with the supreme blow of a Saint-level powerhouse, destroying countless ancient vampires...

However, these are things that the dwarves who have lived underground for many years do not know.

Most of their impressions of humans still remain on the weak (generally strong) race that struggled to survive tens of thousands of years ago...

"Times have changed, uncle~"

"Now is the age of humans..."

But Lulu was right. No matter how one argued, humans had already stood at the pinnacle of the times. The elves, demons, dwarves, orcs, and even the extremely powerful dragons... could only choose to live in peace in a corner, or simply disappear.

"Yeah......"

Shi Dong lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

I don’t know how long I walked in the tunnel, but finally a milky white light appeared in front of me.

"Here we are."

"Oh... What a big magic stone..."

Just like when Wu Yue came for the first time, everyone's eyes were first focused on the huge glowing ore floating on the top of the cave, and then they began to sigh that the scale of Moravia was almost the same as that of Mel City.

"That's not a magic stone, it's a 'calendar stone'. There's probably only one of its kind in the entire continent, and you can't find any more."

"calendar?"

"It's not the calendar that records the years. This is the 'sun' that replaces the sun in the sky and brings light to the underground for a long time. Without it, the dwarves would not be alive today."

"But it's no longer useful now, and I hope it won't be needed in the future."

Walking into the city, it is not surprising that there are fewer residents here.

"They have all climbed to the ground. Normally, these guys are more stubborn than each other, but when they can really get back to the ground, they all rush forward to squeeze back up. It's really interesting."

Stone explained with a smile.

"The residents here have all come to the ground, so this place must be..."

Wuyue asked.

"It won't stay empty forever. When the novelty wears off, they will naturally come back... But Moravia will probably become a city dedicated to mining and mineral storage in the future... After all, even that old man has moved his throne there..."

Dwarves are well aware of the principle that wealth should not be shown to others.

From now on, Friedham was the "outside" and Moravia was the "inside", taking care of each other.

"Oh, by the way, maybe we can open up a passage south of Kush in the future to border Batoria..."

"really?"

In that case, the three cities would be connected together, and they would be as solid as a rock...

"As for the plan... God knows when it will be implemented. Let's wait until the situation in the south stabilizes..."

As they were talking, everyone walked to Shi Dong's cabin.

"Oh... I almost forgot... There are no hotels in the city... How about this, I'll go ask if there's any vacant room for you guys to stay in... Wait for me here."

After saying this, Shi Dong trotted all the way to the former palace...

......

"Hey... this little house, this little door, look at it."

"Yeah, it's a perfect match with Kelulu."

"Damn it, when will Beora stop making jokes about my height... I'd rather spend this time thinking about what to eat tonight..."

Rumble!

As the two were arguing, a unique roar came from the underground in the distance, accompanied by a slight tremor.

"Then, what is that?"

Beorra is a little scared when she hears similar sounds underground now...

"It's probably the sound of mining, small explosives or something..." Kelulu said nonchalantly. After all, this is the territory of the dwarves, and mining is normal.

"No... not like..." Sophia listened attentively.

"Master..." Wu Yue asked worriedly.

"Yeah, that's right..."

Bai Ye sighed and said:

"Another Earth Dragon..."
