Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 60: Tunneling to Freedom 1

Priest felt his patience slipping away from him, as much as he didn't want to, he was dragged down to the floor of to join them with what Priest can only consider an army of cavern moles.

There were almost three hundred of the creatures if not more, of all shapes and sizes. And then went down across the cavern, crossing a marshland that was almost a kilometer long, going around a lake that gave him chills, before coming to the other side of the cavern, where a massive tunnel seemed to have been dug.

The bottom of the cavern was dangerous, while most of the monsters were still in their caves, it was well known that the worst of them had made their nest on the ground, rather than the hundreds of caves lining the cavern walls stretching deeper into the canyon itself. The entrance of the tunnel was actually boarded up and covered with branches, it was a good ten meters tall, and ten meters wide.

If he didn't know better, Priest would assume that this was a major road of sorts, it stretched deep into the darkness so he couldn't see too far. But there would find out eventually, and that's how they waited for a good hour and half before Rezar showed up with another army of undead ants, but if that wasn't enough they were dragging the segmented pieces of an even bigger ant, like seriously huge. Of course he has seen bigger, but Priest honestly didn't think Rezar was capable of bringing down such a monster.

but granted Lenore was with him then it stands to reason she would have helped too. Rezar gave the surprised Priest a happy tap on his shoulder as he went past him until he was standing in front of Gynaika and her soccer sized group of followers. The five that were injured by him previously were completely fine, a sharp testament to Priest's healing skills. But they looked quite pale, so they probably weren't a hundred percent yet.

"Gynaika, there's much I want to ask you, but we don't have the time." Rezar said as he moved closer to peer at the tunnel.

"Indeed, our presence here has alerted the hegemon monsters of the cavern, I can feel them and they're coming for us, we should make haste Son of Death." Rezar blinked, the only thing he was saying in his mind was just how unfortunate this all was, so beautiful with a body that he was sure even Priest the priest couldn't resist, and all that amounted to was the fact that she was batshit crazy. But she wasn't wrong, they needed to get the fuck out of here, they had a long way to go.

"Priest you're up, tell me exactly which direction we have to tunnel towards, but for now everyone into the tunnel, and you bunch of ants, use the queen's err butt? To seal the cave." With that said, their army of undead and living monsters and a total sum of fifteen people, 2 humans, 12 wild tribe members whatever the fuck kind of race they were, and a demoness marched into the tunnel that at this moment, had already been dug for a gran distance of 5 kilometers, and there was more to be dug.

[[[[[[||]]]]]

About fifteen minutes later, everyone had gotten into the tunnel with the ants taking the lead, which was understandable, they would be digging out the tunnel. The march was going to be pretty slow, so to avoid that, Rezar let the ants go forwards with Neema and Brutus while Jason and Screet stayed behind to serve as his back up, but Varka, the familiar he had gotten from the random grade familiar summon ticket he had gotten from the dungeon was still sleeping as a tattoo on Rezar's back. There was no danger, and this was trump card that no one here knew about.

"Priest where are we heading to?" Rezar asked as he looked over Priest's shoulder at the map he held in his hand.

"In theory the Bahrenburg frontier should be one of the most fertile in Elysium, but even if that's not the case, it's an uncharted piece of land that has not been fully claimed. Never the less, the area known as Bahrenburg is estimated to be at least 1 million square miles in size, but only 68% of that is available to people, and this is not the fault of beasts, but rather as a result of the terrain.

The canyons of Toromont have split Bahrenburg into two halves, the canyon is 68n kilometers long and its practically a maze that at the moment no one can fully traverse, not unless you're a winged being or have and airship to go over. But then again there's quite a danger, the canyons are as wide as valleys, and they're home to wyverns, and wyrms. It's a literal nesting grounds for draconic beings it's so dangerous even members of the wild tribes avoid it. Flying over is even more dangerous than walking through it, however there are safe passages through.

And one such passage leads to the mine, now we're tunneling under the canyon, luckily for us the mine is almost at the end of the entire canyon itself, it's a dead end, but were going under. I've been privileged to see the area where the mining town is located for above, and I can say we're going in the right direction, and that's south-west. We need to moved forwards for another fifteen to twenty kilometers, there's a 37 kilometer forest just after the canyons, the tunnel should bring us right in front of the forest if not directly within it.

After moving for at least twenty kilometers, we can tunnel upwards until we hit the surfaces, by then we should be fully in the forest. Then we can head west, there's a massive basic close to the coast that used to be the lair of a leviathan, but it was slain the first time pioneers came to the land 246 years ago.

If we're walking it would take us about a month to or more to get there, if we run maybe less. But the ants are fast and undead, we should be there in a week, and our speed will definitely increase once we're above ground.

I have supplies that would last us three weeks easy, by then we should be completely away from the control of any sort of power. From then it's all up to you Rezar, as far as your eyes can possibly see, it would have left to you just how much of this land, you would want to conquer."
