Chen Feng found a hotel with a nice environment, but the food was a bit shocking. There were devil's legs stewed with moss, braised worms, barbecued pork and rice. The latter was the only normal food, but when it was served, it was covered with a layer of fresh plasma, which ended the last bit of Chen Feng's appetite.
Big Bear and Little Bear were still immersed in the land of tenderness. Even half of their souls were still lingering in the memory of the succubus's graceful body. After waving his hand and ordering the other party to rest, Chen Feng sat on the edge of the bed and fell into deep thought.
“Something is wrong!”
Chen Feng sat on the bed, frowning, and muttered: "As a greedy race, they were suddenly forced to pay two-thirds of the reward, and the other party actually agreed. This is simply the biggest loophole!"
The duergar are a greedy race.
It can be said that this is a despicable person who loves money more than himself.
In the situation just now, it could obviously bargain with Chen Feng, but after Chen Feng refused, it gladly accepted it. From that moment on, Chen Feng became suspicious of this gray dwarf who was frightened by him.
The gray dwarves are excellent businessmen who know how to maximize their own interests.
Of course, in addition to this point that made Chen Feng suspicious, there was another point, that is, the identity of the sub-artifact revealed by the other party, and why it was the Book of Darkness that was more tempting to the mage.
I happened to be playing the role of a wizard, and the sub-artifact being auctioned this time was exactly the sub-artifact that the wizard wanted to obtain. Is there such a coincidence in the world
"Could it be that..."
"The other party is selling false information. Perhaps it has told all the powerful people who tried to participate in the auction that the sub-artifact has a different name."
No one would be foolish enough to reveal information that they paid a lot of money for to others. Even if they did, how many people would believe it
This is the Underdark, a level in the abyss. There is no trust and no friendship here. In this dark land, those who can become legendary are all ruthless and cruel. It is impossible for them to trust others casually.
Perhaps, the other party is taking advantage of this mentality to block the news.
There's something weird about all of this.
Chen Feng became more and more certain that there must be some conspiracy behind this, but he didn't know what the other party's real purpose was.
The abnormality of the gray dwarf made Chen Feng feel alert and uneasy.
Although Chen Feng was also in a hidden state, facing a city that had existed for countless years, the gray dwarves still stood in Chen Feng's way like a mountain.
Even though the gray dwarves are still far inferior to Rose, they have also created a powerful force in the long process of accumulating wealth.
Chen Feng needs to know the information about the parliament.
In a world of betrayal, there is no information that cannot be bought. If there is, it proves that your bargaining chips are not enough.
After paying some price, Chen Feng quickly obtained the information of the so-called Speaker of Parliament.
The leader of the Gray Dwarfs' council is a huge fat man who represents greed and devouring. He has countless crazy plans and is one of the most ambitious Gray Dwarves. He has led the Gray Dwarves to where they are today since Dengshi City was still very weak.
Just thirty years ago, a group of swan people tried to negotiate with some churches and alliances in order to come to this land from the lower plane to live. Among their negotiating partners was the chairman of the council of the gray dwarves.
The Swan People have snow-white skin and a pair of angel-like wings. They are unique and rare half-orcs. Compared with the Cat People, the Swan People are undoubtedly stronger in terms of status and bloodline. The Swan People are a matriarchal society. In order to show sincerity, the Swan Queen personally conducted the alliance ceremony.
However, just when the Swan Queen arrived at the territory of Dengshi City, the hypocritical Speaker of the Council tore up the contract without hesitation.
Moreover, he imprisoned the Swan Queen in the castle under his jurisdiction in public. It was a long period of imprisonment. Not only did he make the Swan People pay a huge amount of compensation, he also used it to coerce thousands of Swan People. The Swan Queen also suffered countless terrible punishments and abuses. Ten years later, she finally couldn't stand this torture and chose to commit suicide.
This incident is a pain engraved in the bones of the Swan people.
It is precisely because of this that the Swan people’s diplomacy was completely cut off, their dignity was lost, and they themselves were labeled slaves.
The gray dwarves rose as a result. It can be said that the strength of this city was achieved by stepping on countless corpses. The backbone of the swan people was broken by the speaker of the parliament, so their reputation dropped to the freezing point.
As for some other forces, they were willing to trade with Dengshi City, but they strongly resisted the Speaker of the Parliament.
No one wants to be friends with such an evil guy, as there is a high possibility that he will be doomed.
This is very important news.
Speaker of the Parliament.
A gray dwarf named Gordon.
The opponent was a powerful warrior who inherited the blood of the dwarves and possessed natural supernatural powers. He wielded two huge hammers and even smashed the head of a bone dragon.
A dragon slayer!
A conspirator.
And there are five such dangerous beings in the parliament. A legendary parliament of six people is undoubtedly the support of Dengshi City.
But what is their purpose
Let rich people like Chen Feng attend the auction and earn some wealth
It's not that simple.
Chen Feng has made preparations. If something irreversible happens, he will return to the human world as quickly as possible. Before that, Chen Feng decided to stay put.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.
However, who is the mantis, who is the cicada, and who is the bird on the branch? No one knows!
But one thing is for sure, Chen Feng gladly accepted this challenge.
Comfort will make people lazy, and only pressure is the fuel on the road to progress. These conspiracies and pressures will eventually turn into strength, allowing Chen Feng to have the possibility to go one step further!
… … … … …
A secret crypt.
It was dark and damp here, with dim light, and there was even the sound of dripping water in the empty dungeon.
"Tick... Tick..." It was so weird.
A hundred-meter altar is located in the underground cave. In the center of the altar is a huge snake-like creature. The weird thing is that this snake has no eyes and nose. Its whole body is covered with densely packed mouths, some with teeth, some without teeth, some eating, and some seem to be spraying some juice.
Eternal demon.
This is an evil creature. The only value of its existence is to devour, devour, and devour endlessly.
The newly born Eternal Eaters will devour all living creatures in front of them. When they are born, the first food they devour is their mother. Snake-like creatures with mouths all over them wander around the mother's body, starting from the abdomen, then the torso, limbs, and finally the brain.
This creature is a symbol of evil and filth. Bloodline is the primary emotion that all creatures cannot give up, but for the Ever-Eating Demon, the so-called maternal line is just one of their sources of food.
Violent, cruel, terrifying, thrilling...
Not to mention the human world, even in the abyss, this creature is the mortal enemy of other races because its identity is a devil!
This is one of the devils.
It is known as the existence closest to the devil lord. As we all know, the devils live in Baator Hell (also known as the Nine Abysses Hell). There are nine devil lords who lead the entire clan, and the Eternal Food Demon is competing for the position of lord. You can imagine how powerful it is.
Very strange.
Such statues clearly show signs of artificial carving, which makes people wonder who would worship such a horrible evil creature.
On both sides of the altar, two people sat side by side. They were wearing red robes, like priests, with their eyes slightly closed and solemn expressions.
The two men had bodies of one fat and one thin, forming a sharp contrast. At this time, the slightly thinner one was a dwarf.
dwarf.
Gnomes are sought-after artisans, alchemists, and inventors. Although their skills are well-respected, most gnomes prefer to live among their own kind in cozy caves beneath hills rich with animal life.
Dwarves are about 3 to 3.5 feet tall and weigh between 40 and 45 pounds. Their skin color ranges from dark brown to wood brown, with blond hair and eyes of varying shades of blue. Males prefer short, carefully trimmed beards. Dwarves usually wear animal skins or earth-toned clothing, adorned with intricate embroidery or elaborate jewelry. Dwarves reach adulthood around 40 years old and can live up to 350 years, but some can live up to 500 years old.
Compared to goblins, dwarves have smarter brains. The establishment of Dengshi City is half due to dwarves. As a competent craftsman, the dwarf's wisdom is undoubtedly good.
But the dwarf in the cave seemed a little irritable. Its body was covered with tiny blood-colored scales, and its body was covered with a layer of plasma, emitting a scarlet color.
Demonized!
This dwarf actually has the aura of the devil!
You know, this is the Underdark, an independent dimension far away from bloody battles!
"I said, the time should be advanced. What I hate most is waiting. Damn it, I will definitely go crazy!" The dwarf roared loudly, his golden eyes filled with destructive emotions.
One of the council members, a dwarf named Karo, is one of the rulers of the city of Ascending Stone.
"You can't even endure this little time. Your patience is running low. Could it be that the blood in your body is boiling? You still haven't understood the blood given by the master. It's really disappointing."
A steady voice echoed in the dark dungeon. It was that of a fat gray dwarf.
If the gray dwarves of Dengshi City saw this scene, they would definitely kneel down and show their respect.
Gordon.
He is the pride of the Gray Dwarves, and also the mastermind behind the destruction of the Swan People. Over hundreds of years of conflicts, countless lives have died directly or indirectly at his hands.
He has many titles. To the gray dwarves and other forces, he is called the Scepter, the Gold Coin, or the Madman. To the hostile forces, he is synonymous with hatred, greed, and cunning.
Apart from some trade exchanges, few people would take the initiative to interact with Gordon because of his betrayal. Apart from trade, other forces would stay away from him.
But even so, the gray dwarves continued to prosper under his leadership. Over the past hundred years, Gordon almost monopolized 80% of the surrounding sales industry.
This is a staggering number.
This means that every minute, even an innocent humanoid creature or demon will lose his freedom or life because of him.
