Chapter 441 The Unexpected Drow Elf
Just as the soldiers had guessed while chatting.
Matthew wants to build a temporary mining base in the gold mine, and leave the heavy responsibility of mining to the kobolds.
However, Matthew is not in a hurry at the moment. He just took some samples of gold ore and is preparing to take everyone away from here.
Before that, naturally the traces left by everyone must be eliminated one by one.
The purpose of doing this is naturally to conceal their whereabouts in case someone follows the traces they left and discovered this place.
Matthew asked everyone to sign a magic contract of sharing and confidentiality. After getting the contract, everyone felt very happy.
Of course, after they returned to the surface, Matthew had to give them more publicity.
Spending thousands of gold to buy horse bones is nothing more than this!
After determining the value of the gold vein, Matthew can safely invest in the development of the underground world.
After all, as long as development can bring a steady stream of benefits to everyone, everyone can maintain the momentum of pioneering and enterprising.
Just when Matthew and others were preparing to return to the surface.
Ya Ya, who had been sleeping soundly all the way, suddenly woke up.
She stared at the darkness in the distance and said immediately in her heart:
"I smell danger, as if there are enemies ambushing ahead."
Matthew had always trusted Yaya's judgment and immediately gave the order to the others to stop advancing.
"There are enemies ahead, be prepared for battle."
The soldiers reacted immediately and carefully concealed their whereabouts.
Another enemy?
Suppressing the joy in her heart, Aini lowered her voice subconsciously and couldn't help but ask:
"What kind of enemy is in front of us? Are they the jackals?"
Shaking his head with a solemn expression, Matthew released the "Cleaning Technique", "Silence Technique", and "Camouflage Technique" on the big guy, and then cautiously approached the front.
In the corner of the dark passage, Matthew saw the enemy's figure through the sharp vision fed back from Yaya.
The simple camp where hundreds of gnolls were stationed was now being besieged by many figures.
They are strong and agile.
With a little effort, he could easily jump over the simple camp wall of the jackals and fight his way into the camp.
The weaponry is also excellent.
Even though they were far apart, Matthew could clearly see that they were using enchanted weapons and armor.
Sophisticated equipment combined with powerful strength.
The fighting ability is quite amazing.
Matthew also recognized the identities of these "enemies", one of the three major forces in the underground world, the drow!
The drow were originally a branch of the elves. Later, they were expelled from the elves' territory due to failure in the struggle for power and issues of faith.
Following the instructions of the evil god Rose, they entered this dangerous underground world.
They spent a lot of money to carve out areas and territories where they could survive and reproduce.
Under the influence of the evil god Rose and the environment, these elves have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Elegance turned into cruelty.
Cleverness turned into cunning.
The beautiful and good appearance becomes dull and coquettish.
Even the hair of different colors turned uniformly white.
The drow established city-states one after another. Each city-state occupied a large territory and ruled hundreds of thousands or even millions of slaves.
They obtained a comfortable and superior life by squeezing and driving these slaves.
Of course, they ruled over other slaves with cruelty and force.
Without the pressure of survival, these drow are usually immersed in their own "game" of murderous plots.
They are fighting each other, fighting openly and secretly, enjoying it endlessly and constantly consuming.
They have the inheritance of elves and a large number of resources in the underground world, so they have great potential for development.
However, due to the intentional division of the evil god Rose, and the struggle for power between them.
Therefore, the drow remained trapped underground for thousands of years.
Drow elves occasionally launch attacks on the surface world, and they will only sweep around.
Then, the drow returned to the underground world with the slaves and property they found.
Like a robber.
Interestingly, players really like getting along with these drow.
Because they can learn many things from these drow elves.
Just give money and benefits.
These drow are usually very generous partners.
Of course, other collaborators must always be in a dominant leadership position.
Otherwise, these drow elves will become greedy and use various means to test.
Once they think they can win, they will stab someone in the back very decisively.
Without hesitation at all.
Matthew also dealt with drow.
He once used thunder to destroy more than 10 drow cities.
This angered Rose, the evil god worshiped by the drow elves.
Moved his hands!
Matthew suffered a big loss.
However, even Matthew did not expect that the drow would actually appear in this area.
"This is obviously the territory of the Kalaya Gnoll Kingdom. Why do they dare to be so unscrupulous? Aren't they afraid..."
Just as Matthew was about to think about this, he suddenly thought of a crucial question.
"When did the drow take control of the Kalaya Gnoll Kingdom?"
"Is it now?"
"It is because they control a large number of gnolls that they launched an attack on the dwarf kingdom and the elves."
"And, they found the entrance to the ground world from here and launched a sneak attack that severely damaged Blood Moon City."
"From this point of view, the drow elves were well prepared."
"These are most likely just their vanguards, and the real large force has not yet arrived..."
"They are very compatible with the drow elves because of their different attributes..."
Just as Matthew was thinking, the gnolls in the gnoll camp in front of him were almost unable to hold on.
They are no match for the drow elves at all, and they are obviously at a disadvantage in terms of weapons and equipment or personal combat effectiveness.
The number that they are proud of on weekdays is even more at a disadvantage.
Aini, who saw through the situation, did not ask questions like before, and obviously realized the seriousness of the situation.
The drow elves are different from previous enemies, they are extremely dangerous!
Matthew narrowed his eyes and his mind was working rapidly.
The drow elves must be stopped from taking down the gnolls!
Otherwise, the territory will be in danger!
What to do?
Do it now!
Matthew pointed to the back of the Gnoll camp and said in a clear voice:
"The Gnolls must not know that this place has been attacked."
"Let's help the Gnolls now and tell everyone what happened here."
After hearing Matthew's words, everyone bypassed the Gnoll camp and quietly rushed to the back through the narrow and hidden passage.
As expected.
They saw a team of more than a hundred drow elves quietly ambushing behind the Gnoll camp.
