Chapter 192: The human in the elven territory Part3
Tang Yue proceeded to cautiously walk on the sixth ‘layer of hell’, with Little Plum silently hovering close to her.
The snake kept her eyes and ears wide open and was on full alert.
But weirdly enough, even after she almost reached the end of the tunnel, she could see nothing on her way.
“Hmmm…” The snake hissed.
She continued walking through to the very end and entered the small cavern, that typically housed a high-grade beast.
“Will there be nothing here too?”
However, unexpectedly, just like before, this time as well a huge lizard with three tails laid dead in front of her, cut into a million pieces.
Tang Yue absentmindedly collected her free loot and continued thinking about what might have changed.
“Why were there no more low-grade minions wandering the tunnel?”
“Where did they all go?”
“Was there nothing to even begin with?”
“But that doesn’t sound possible.”
“If anything… with the increasing difficulty, there should be more beasts present?” She hissed.
After thinking for a while, the only conclusion that she could arrive at was the possibility that the expert this time cleared the tunnel as well, along with the high-grade beast which blocked the entrance to the next layer.
“But why would the person who clearly didn’t bother dealing with the low-grade beasts, now waste time to clear the entire tunnel?”
She stared at the moldy wall in front of her, her fingers mechanically circling the pattern of green toxin spattered on the cave wall.
“Ah!” Tang Yue suddenly gasped in realization.
“What if the tunnels no longer simply housed low-grade beasts?”
“What if there are mid-grade beasts loitering around these damp and dark halls?”
“Maybe the expert couldn’t afford to ignore the mid-grade beasts and was perhaps forced to clear them as well?”
“That definitely seems possible!” She banged her fist on her palm.
Just as she was contemplating this possibility, engrossed deeply in her thoughts, a loud thud sounded near her, or rather behind her.
It was coming from the entrance of the next ‘layer of hell’, the 7th floor!
A small green figure walked towards her, its rhythmic steps sounding dull and dead.
“A kobold?” Tang Yue gasped and quickly leaped backward in alarm.
Kobolds were basically cousins of goblins, both possessing a very similar physical appearance, a short and lean stature with green-colored skin.
However, they also possessed very powerful earth magic.
While goblins excelled in being shrewd and crafty, Kobolds were more on the brainless side, relying mostly on their physical strength and earth magic.
Tang Yue was initially taken aback by surprise but she soon calmed down after seeing that the kobold in front of her was very heavily injured and its cultivation base was completely shattered.
This meant that the person standing in front of her might as well be a helpless forest salamander.
Tang Yue immediately stepped forward and slashed at the injured kobold, cutting him into two halves.
The small green wounded body fell limp on the ground, spluttering green toxic blood everywhere.
“This kobold was also an undead?” Tang Yue couldn’t help but gasp slightly. She shook her head in fear and dread.
This was a kobold alright, but she hadn’t expected him to be undead as well?
“Were higher beings even able to be manipulated like this?” She didn’t know the answer to this question.
She had uncovered something extremely dangerous and terrifying.
Even in Eldoria, there were one or two secret arts available that allowed one to wield dark elemental energy and control a couple of low-grade beasts or even mid-grade beasts.
There was nothing surprising about that.
But whoever had set up this entire massive and elaborate labyrinth had not only managed to control hordes and hordes of undead beasts simultaneously but also subjugate higher beings like goblins with their dark magic?
This was completely unheard of!!
Tang Yue slightly shuddered at the thought of how powerful this inheritance was!
Moreover, even scarier than this… was the fact that someone else was here, besides herself!
And this person was already strong enough to slaughter these high-grade beasts as if they were nothing.
What if they obtained the inheritance as well?
Wouldn’t that make the expert more powerful than Xander himself?
Would the elven reign then be toppled?
Would there be war among the Nine countries again?
This might be a small thing, but there were exponentially important ramifications to it that could affect their entire world.
If someone more powerful than Xander suddenly emerged, then that would definitely create trouble.
And if someone more powerful than Xander’s father, the Elven Emperor, by chance arose, then everything would plunge into chaos.
The elves would no longer be at the top!
Everything could change at any instant. The feebly existing web of peace could completely shatter at any moment.
And no one can even do anything about it!
Well… except for her…
“Fuck…” Tang Yue started sweating profusely.
“Why am I in the middle of this shit storm?”
“Damn it. I just wanted a couple of good treasures!”
“Is that too much to ask???”
“I can’t possibly take on such a big responsibility!”
“Why should I even care if there is a threat to the elven rule?”
“Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.”
“Damn it. I knew I should have just stayed in that worm’s bum!”
Tang Yue cursed at her miserable plight and shoved the dead Kabold’s body into her space pearl.
Just thinking about everything made her scalp tingle, but she had no other option.
She at least had to try and do something.
She owed that much to the elf who was fighting upstairs with the monstrous beast, putting his life on the line.
Tang Yue’s grip on her sword tightened as the snake continued to walk up to the tunnel, that laid at the entrance of the 7th layer of hell.
Her pace quickened even though she was still cautious.
Deep down… she knew full well that everything in her path was probably already dead…
