Chapter Fifty-Eight: Ruins

"Head, does this door really have an opening switch?" Barron tapped on the door with his axe, and there was a dull sound from inside.

The crowd searched around for a long time, but they didn't find any mechanism that could open the gate.

"Stand back. Su Lun said with a wave of his hand. He was about to forcibly break open the gate, looking at the traces on the gate, it was estimated that the mechanism inside might have been damaged a long time ago, and even if he found it, he would not be able to open it.

Su Lun stretched out his hand and pressed it on the rusty iron door, and then his muscles tensed, and the two iron doors made a squeaky and tooth-aching sound, and then moved little by little.

A large amount of dust fell from above the gate, and the heavy iron door began to move slowly.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

There were several successive sounds of metal breaking from behind the door, and the heavy stone door opened slowly but firmly. The iron door was ajar, Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his arm, the door opened, and a smell of decay and mold came from inside.

Su Lun didn't go in immediately, who knows if the air inside is poisonous after so long. A whirlwind was summoned and entered the gate, and soon a strong smell of rotten and musty air blew out of it.

After two or three ventilations, the smell inside became normal, and the two barbarians walked in with the torches they had just made.

After entering the gate, the light suddenly dimmed a lot, under the reflection of the torches, a few people can see the scene inside the passage clearly, this is a passage with a width of about four meters and a height of three meters, there is a row of bronze wall lamps on both sides of the passage, the passage is dark, I don't know where it leads.

Walking along the passage to the inside, soon Su Lun saw a corpse that had rotted and only a pile of white bones remained, looking at his dress, this should be an adventurer, the clothes on the corpse had become tattered, and in his chest, there were a few arrows that had been broken, this unlucky guy should have stepped on the mechanism in the passage and was shot.

A casual rummag turned around and there was nothing left on the corpse except for a rusty weapon. Just as a few people were about to move on, the corpse, which had turned into bones, actually stood up slowly.

"Undead?" Seeing the skeleton revived, Su Lun was not surprised, when he entered the passage, he felt that the negative energy in it was a little high, and the corpse would have a great chance of awakening into the undead if he stayed in this kind of place for a long time.

The skeleton did not have a soul fire in its eyes, which meant that it was only the lowest level of resurrection skeleton, the lowest level of undead spirit was very easy to deal with, and a farmer could break it if he overcame his fear. As an undead creature, it is very sensitive to the breath of the living, and the first time it stands up, it takes the rusty weapon and wants to attack Suren.

As a result, before it could make a move, a huge axe swept away, directly breaking up its bone frame, and the bones were scattered, leaving only a skull to fall at his feet, and the steel boots stepped on, and the skull was trampled to pieces with a click.

"Be careful, there may be a mechanism in there. After the skeleton was resolved, the group continued inside. In fact, for this kind of ruin exploration, it is best to have a thief, after all, these thieves are familiar with all kinds of hidden weapons, and it is easy to crack. Su Lun and his party, except for the barbarians, are him, and they can only use brute force.

Luckily, this relic has already been visited, and many traps can't be retriggered, and only some expensive and cleverly crafted traps can be reset after triggering.

As we go deeper into the passage, the eerie feeling becomes more and more intense. Soon Suren saw three corpses that had also decayed into white bones.

One of the corpses had three broken ribs, presumably caused by a blunt impact, and the other two corpses had at least ten arrows stuck in them, Suren checked them casually, and turned out a few silver narls from several corpses, as well as some rotting parchment, the parchment had become tattered after so long that even the handwriting on it could not be seen clearly.

The corpses did not become undead, and Su Lun guessed that their bones were too badly damaged. Sweeping the corpse aside, the group continued on their way, and at that moment, there was a sudden creaking sound in the empty passageway, like the rusty doorway suddenly opening.

Immediately after, a black shadow suddenly rushed from the front, and the barbarian warrior at the front immediately raised his two-handed axe, the wide axe face was like a shield, covering most of his body, and then the black shadow hit the axe with a bang, and the barbarian's body was also knocked backwards.

Su Lun only saw clearly at this time that it was a wooden stake with the thickness of a bowl, and the part in front of the stake was also wrapped with a layer of copper skin. Although it is wooden, it still carries a lot of weight when it hits it like this. Seeing this thing, Su Lun already understood that the corpse with a broken sternum just now was caused by this trap. It's just that I didn't expect that this trap can still be used after hundreds of years.

Seeing that the stake was charging again after the impact, a barbarian warrior next to him slashed it with an axe, and the huge force directly broke the iron chain hanging on the stake, and the stake lost its balance and hit the wall next to it.

Dismantling the trap, Su Lun looked at the barbarian who was hit, although he was hit hard just now, but before that, he had already blocked it with an axe, plus the armor on his body, this rough-skinned barbarian was not injured at all, but fell a little embarrassed.

After encountering this trap, the team was obviously a lot more careful, and the stake was also removed as a pathfinder tool, I have to say, this ruin is actually well preserved, and the next group encountered a lot of traps, such as stepping on a piece of floor, dozens of crossbow arrows suddenly shot around, and for example, the floor suddenly turned over, and a bunch of sharp blades appeared below.

It's just that these traps are okay to deal with ordinary adventurers, and when they meet Su Lun, they are basically useless, Su Lun's equipment plus their reaction speed, the arrows are easily knocked out. As for the reproduction trap, it is also directly triggered by the heavy stake.

In the following trip, Su Lun did not find any corpses, and it seems that the three bodies found before were the last members of this adventurer team, and perhaps there would be survivors, who gave up the exploration and left directly after seeing the heavy casualties of their companions.

Along the way, they violently destroyed all kinds of traps, Suren and their speed was not slow, and after a few minutes of continuing to advance, a stone gate appeared in front of them again.
