After more than two hours of trepidation in the pitch-black cave, the slaves finally saw a glimmer of light in front of the team.
As the light grew stronger, they finally walked out of the cave and came to a huge cave.
After coming out of the cave, the first thing that entered Leo's eyes was the seemingly endless fluorescent fungi above his head.
The star-like fluorescence filled the cave with a faint light. In Leo's eyes, this place was as bright as day.
In the middle of the fluorescent fungi, a waterfall hung down from the top of the cave, like a jade belt falling from the sky. The rumbling sound of the waterfall falling into the water came from afar.
Under the fluorescence, there was an endless underground forest.
The area of this cave was so huge that he couldn't see the end of it.
After a new road that was nearly three meters wide extended out of the cave, it extended forward along the side of the huge cave and disappeared into the dense underground forest.
At the side of the road at the exit of the cave, a large open space was cleared. There was a small camp by the side of the road with a few tents.
There were two patrol guards in the camp, and the ones being guarded were actually a few humans!
These humans were wearing decent clothes, and they were discussing something around a piece of paper.
Seeing Feng Chou looking at the humans with some surprise, Simon explained in a low voice, "Those humans are artisan slaves living in the artisan area. Their treatment is much better than ordinary slaves like us. Not only are they able to eat and wear warm clothes, some skilled artisans can also get women, have their own houses, have children, and even get an education!"
"Do you see that woman?
That woman is most likely a human born in this city. The humans on the surface won't let women work as masons or architects.
Only then did Feng Chou notice that among the humans, the one holding the blueprint was a tall woman.
Feng Chou noticed that this woman's figure was somewhat similar to the Drow warrior's figure. He let Qiankun Pagoda bring up the results of her scan.

This human woman actually had the profession level of a sixth level Drow Warrior.
In addition to these, Qiankun Pagoda also scanned some more interesting information.
Just like Simon, this woman had put on some disguises.
If Simon was pretending to be weak, then this woman was pretending to be ugly.
Her face had gone through a simple makeup, which was almost impossible to see. The effect was also completely different from normal makeup. Normal makeup covered the flaws and magnified the strengths, but this woman's makeup covered the strengths and magnified the flaws.
If it wasn't for Qiankun Pagoda's subtle scanning function, Feng Chou wouldn't have been able to tell.
She also used makeup to cover up some of the characteristics of Drow's elven lineage. For example, she used black dye to dye her black hair with a little silver luster to make it pure black. Qiankun Pagoda also found that her ears had been surgically trimmed to remove the tips, making them look more like human ears.
…
The slaves were driven to a clearing by the roadside.
The woman stood on a large stone and loudly announced their next task.
It turned out that this woman was the leader of these artisan slaves. Simon guessed right, she was an architect.
Feng Chou and the other human slaves were going to build a small fortress here under the command of her and her companions.
It was no wonder that the human slaves were transferred here. Building a house was difficult for the less intelligent cavemen, and the strength of ordinary goblins was too small to be suitable. Only humans and grey dwarves could do it.
However, the grey dwarven slaves in Drow's underground city were precious artisans, and only the human serfs could do it.
Under the command of this woman and the whipping of Drow's warriors, the human slaves were divided into several groups. A small group set up a large pot to cook food, and the majority were divided into several groups to dig the foundation.
After more than a hundred people started working, it became a mess. Simon went to Feng Chou and discussed with him, "When do you think we should leave?"
Feng Chou thought for a moment and said, "We only have one chance, and the probability of successfully escaping is not high. I remember you said that Drow's tracking ability is very strong. Once we succeed in escaping, we have to leave the underground world in the shortest time possible. So I think we should be careful and not rush."
"Drow is building a fortress here. There must be a strong threat in this cave. Since there is a threat and it is guarding a path, this fortress will not be built. I think we will stay here for a long time."
After listening to Feng Chou's analysis, Simon nodded and agreed with him.
In the next few days, the two buried their heads in work.
On the first day of rest, there was a small incident in the camp.
In this camp, there was a clear hierarchy. Drow of the patrol team had his own tent, Bear Goblin slave soldiers could only sleep around the tent, and the artisan slaves seemed to have a higher status than the Bear Goblin. They also had their own tents. The other human slaves could only sleep on the ground like the Bear Goblin.
Fortunately, although the underground world was cold, there was no need to worry about rain. The cave was rich in vegetation, and the slaves could light bonfires to warm themselves. It was not as uncomfortable as the stone houses.
As slaves who had sneaked in, Feng Chou and Simon could only sleep at the outermost area.
If they were beaten to death by the Bear Goblin at this time, it would be a pity. So the two of them could only take turns to keep watch.
First, Feng Chou kept watch. When Simon fell asleep, he began to slack off. He let Qiankun Pagoda keep watch while he sat on the ground and slept with his head on his knees.
He didn't know how long he slept, but he was suddenly woken up by Qiankun Pagoda. Through the scan view shared by Qiankun Pagoda, he saw some interesting scenes.
At this time, the whole camp was quiet. Only the two patrol teams who were on duty were moving around the periphery of the camp. As they moved, the cold sound of chain armor colliding with each other could be heard.
But in Qiankun Pagoda's shared view, in addition to the patrol team's activities, there were some other people sneaking around.
A skinny Rogue was sneaking towards the artisan's tent.
As for his purpose …
His purpose was very clear. It should be the independent tent in the center of the artisan slaves' tent that belonged to the female architect.
From Qiankun Pagoda's close-up shot of the bulge under his lower abdomen, Feng Chou could easily judge that he should have a brain full of lust.
This was a level 4 Rogue, but with such strength, sneak attacking a level 6 Drow Warrior was absolutely looking for death.
There were basically no women among the ordinary human slaves in the underground city. Even if there were, they wouldn't live long. Many human slaves had never seen a woman since they came here, and in their foreseeable fate, as long as there was no miracle, they wouldn't have the opportunity to meet a woman. In such a crowd, it was not surprising that a guy whose brain was burned by lust would appear.
In addition to this level 4 Rogue, there were also some drooling Bear Goblin slave soldiers sneaking around the periphery of the camp.
What these Bear Goblin didn't expect was that they were actually the mantis hunting the cicada, and there was a group of orioles behind them.
