Chapter 174: Against each other

Seeing Shen Mengting's surprised face, Zhao Yu's heart couldn't help but tighten. He gasped, and with the trajectory that Shen Mengting was looking at just now, he also looked around.

Over here...... Over here......

Zhao Yu's mouth opened wide unconsciously.

Now they were in a palace-like hall, with pillars erected in it like a gigantic harp.

"This ......" Zhao Yu's jaws were constantly trembling.

The size of the hall was very large, which was inversely proportional to the tunnel they had set foot in before. If I had to describe it, it would be like a cecal path leading to a huge garden.

"Here...... Where is it?" Qian Hao opened his mouth blankly, looking as surprised as he wanted.

"I don't know, but we must still be in the mountains!" Shen Mengting looked around cautiously. She looked extremely fierce, and her eyes were full of sharpness.

No matter where this place is, it must have a significant relationship with the treasure - this is Shen Mengting's guess.

"You're right!" Ozturk's deep voice came, his tail dragged behind him, and he slowly approached Shen Mengting, "and...... I feel like we're getting close to the treasure!"

Shen Mengting showed an alert look, she couldn't imagine that Ozturk would reveal her thoughts so openly.

"Really?" she pretended to be stupid, as if she were very surprised.

Perhaps the hall is so empty that every time a word is released, it forms a penetrating echo. Zhao Yu was a little uncomfortable by the turn around, and he almost had to cover his ears. However, the current scene shocked him so much that he missed the movement of covering his ears.

"I used to look at the map, and the location it showed was at the end of a hallway. With that, Ozturk turned his head and looked at the door they had walked in earlier.

The gate was already damaged, and the traces of being chopped by Shen Mengting were still very obvious.

"If the corridor is the tunnel, then ......" Ozturk was a little more than a mouthful, like a statue in deep thought, standing still for a long time.

And as he shut up, the others stopped talking. A silent atmosphere floated around, as if it was about to swallow everyone.

At this moment, a sudden hurricane swept by, and a large number of flames burst out again. Because of the previous encounter, everyone also showed panicked expressions, and they suddenly wanted to get closer to a certain center. In this way, everyone is on the same side.

A few flames slowly stabilized from the surrounding gas, until they were no longer high, and everyone realized that they were surrounded by braziers with brackets. Naturally, those fires came from the brazier. What's even more interesting is that the brazier is arranged vertically, scattered around the pillars.

These braziers also seem to be sensed with gas, just like the torches in the tunnels before.

"This ......" Shen Mengting first looked at one of the fires, and after staring at it for a while, she turned to look around.

The same was true of the others, who watched in amazement. It seemed that everything that happened in the hall was enough to make everyone wonder for a while.

"Here...... It's a lot of traps!" said Kapil, the troll.

"That's good!" Ozturk grinned, and the fangs in his mouth were clearly visible, "since there is treasure here, it must be very dangerous." ”

"So we have to be very careful!" Qian Hao unconsciously put his hand on the longbow he was carrying.

Suddenly, he seemed to notice something unusual. He jerked his head back, narrowing his gaze from the distance he had looked at. After looking at the number of people on his back, he was stunned.

The rest of the people are aware of the problem, and almost all of them show a difference. Then, in a second's effort, the crowd that had gathered together suddenly dispersed.

The crowd halved into two, like a split watermelon. On one side are the humans of Shen Mengting and Qian Hao, and on the other side are two foreign assassins. Both sides looked at each other alertly, with cheeks twitching from time to time.

After a long time, it was Shen Mengting who broke the awkward atmosphere, and she quickly threw a toothy smile at Ozturk and them.

"I'm so sorry! I just made you laugh. Alas, look at us human beings! The response to trouble is an exaggeration. I'm so scared to get together with you!"

"Alas, don't say that!" Ozturk immediately shook his arm, "this is a very correct reaction. Don't you see we're not unusually flustered?" his bulb-like eyes narrowed as if they were a wolf hunting prey.

"Hah, so we all need to pay attention in the future, after all, it can be said that there are many crises here!" Shen Mengting twitched her slightly stiff face.

Qian Hao was also extremely alert on the side and looked at the two foreigners at this moment. Of course, his hand was fully on the hilt, and with a little power he could pull out the longbow he was carrying and pull the bowstring by inertia.

"Yes, you need to be careful!" Ozturk let out a soft breath, this breath tinged with an excessive amount of blood, as if he would draw his sword and kill someone in the next moment.

The two sides confronted each other again, and Shen Mengting felt that it was not good to waste time like this, so she turned to a relaxed appearance, "Mr. Ozturk is also right. However, while it is true that you should be careful, it is not good to be too nervous!"

Ozturk rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Well, that's right!" he then moved his face to Qian Hao on the side, "So...... Should everyone take it easy?"

Shen Mengting willingly patted Qian Hao next to him with the back of his hand, Qian Hao also smiled, and he even patted the back of his head with his hand embarrassedly, "Oh! yes! Look at me! The professional nature of the archer! I just made it too exaggerated. Isn't it just a few flames coming out of the brazier? Why am I so afraid of this, I have to draw my bow and pull the string!"

"No! you're doing the right thing!" Ozturk politely snapped his fangs, "It's good to be alert, and as the swordswoman said, it's dangerous to say anything here." And you're not the only one here who is too nervous, our Kapil is ......," he said, turning his head to Kapil next to him.

Now Kapil was indeed in a state of nervousness, and he held the hilt of the thin sword pinned to his left waist in his right hand, as if he had booked the clockwork for drawing the sword.

Kapil realized that his captain was calling himself, and he quickly let go.

"Kapil, you're exaggerating, don't hurry up and put your hands down!"

After Ozturk's reprimand, Kapil obediently lowered his taut right hand.

"Ozturk, you don't have to blame him too much. Actually, this is all quite normal. It's a very good habit to tense up when you're in danger and prepare to draw your sword!" Shen Mengting continued to let out a fake smile.

"Yes. So I'm not going to blame him any more. Of course, I hope you don't blame the archer next to you too much!" Ozturk snapped a few more glances.

"Don't worry! Shen Mengting shook her head, and then she snorted at Qian Hao on the side, "Right! I won't blame you much." ”

"That's right!" Qian Hao opened his mouth with a smile.

Zhao Yu, who was behind them, couldn't help frowning when he saw all this. He didn't understand what was wrong with these people, they were all smiling at each other, but the atmosphere they created was a little weird. It seems that they have a kind of opposing emotion in it.

Why is this? Zhao Yu tilted his head and fell into a state of confusion. It's to be expected that they are pitted against each other, but isn't it all made clear in that tunnel?

'The two groups need to be united so that they can get out of this cave'.

That's why they walked with those two foreign assassins, but now they are still so opposed. Zhao Yu really didn't understand. He shook his head slightly, thinking to himself how complicated the adult world is.

"Alright then, I hope the turmoil doesn't affect us anything!" Ozturk let out a low roar.

His proposal was immediately responded to by Shen Mengting, "Yes, we should still focus on how to get out of here!"

"Yes!" Ozturk nodded, "but ...... Before we escape, we should be concerned about where the treasure is hidden!" he craned his neck and looked around.

To be honest, Shen Mengting didn't want a werewolf of a foreign race to care so much about the treasures buried by the former human empire. However, since the werewolf was still a temporary 'ally', she didn't intend to resist it obviously.

"Yes!" Shen Mengting also followed her thoughts and looked around. Still, her eyes rolled around her neck, fixed on the two foreign assassins.

"Where the hell is the treasure?" Ozturk walked as he came to a pillar and put his hand on it. There are also carved drawings on the pillars, which are dragons in the oriental style.

"Such a splendid picture!" Ozturk showed an intoxicated countenance, "Sure enough, it's not the Shenzhou Empire." The human empire that dominated the entire Sailos back then!"

Hearing this emotion, Shen Mengting was also unconsciously in reverie. Indeed, as the werewolf said, the Shenzhou Empire has the most splendid history. At the same time, it was once the most powerful country in Cellos. During the Divine Zhou Empire, humans can be said to have walked sideways in any area of Sailos.

And yet now......

Shen Mengting slowly closed her eyes, and everything became empty with the division of the empire. With the passing of the Shenzhou Empire, human beings also seemed to have been drained of their souls, and they were weakened in mutual internal friction.

After that, there were always human hopes to completely unify the ancient regions of East Asia, but they all failed. The most recent example is the Sauron Empire. However, the idea of unifying humanity in that country never ceased. Shen Mengting suddenly opened her eyes, and she was nervous at the thought of the Sauron Empire. As soon as she was nervous, sweat would ooze from her armpits.

"Captain Ozturk, this split is also good for Celros! Especially in the sub-ancient continent, in the future, other races close to the ancient region of East Asia, there is no need to worry about being bullied by a powerful human empire in the future!" Kapil gradually approached his captain.

"Hehe, that's true for other races, but for humans......" Ozturk glanced at Shen Mengting with his eyes.

Shen Mengting could naturally feel the other party's hidden action, she sighed deeply, and walked directly in the opposite direction of Ozturk, "Anyway, the Shenzhou Empire no longer exists at all, and there is no point in pulling about its past glory now." We should hurry up and find the treasure!"

"That's a good point!" Ozturk snickered.

"But here's the thing...... Where is the treasure?" Qian Hao took a few small steps, his steps were already very light, but he still made a few crisp footsteps.

"I don't dare to say anything, though. But there's one thing I can talk about......" Ozturk lowered his arm touching the pillar as he looked deeper into the hall.

Today's halls are brightly lit, so there are no blind spots. At the easternmost end of the hall was a scalp that was so empty that it made my scalp tingle. The main reason why it is uncomfortable is because of its disobedience, as if there are two worlds in the area and the surroundings.

Why did you feel this way? Özturk himself could not tell.

"The treasure must be around here!" Ozturk's mind was still pondering, but the words in his mouth were already uncontrollably released!

"Are you so confident?" Qian Hao let out a contemptuous gaze, and he squinted his eyes at the werewolf who seemed to be talking to himself.

"Yes, I'm confident! It's not just a map. From the sensors we've come across so far, I know this must be an extraordinary place!"

"You have a point, from the first gate, to the torches that suddenly lit up. I can imagine that the traps were deliberately made. And the purpose of their creation is basically to hide something. If it's something important, then it really forgets to consider the treasure!" Shen Mengting straightened her chest, and she calmly stated her thoughts.

"So the treasure is really around here?" Qian Hao pointed to the ground.

"There is a good chance that this is the case!" Shen Mengting nodded.

"Then we ......" Qian Hao rolled his eyes, as if he was going to make some proposal.

"We can take action, and we can start looking around this hall as a axis. I guess it won't be long before the treasure will be presented to us!" Shen Mengting's face seemed to be tightened, which was caused by many reasons.

At first, she didn't want the two foreign Assassins to get involved in the treasure, thinking that she would give them both away under the guise of helping each other. But now, Shen Mengting has to face foreign races to peek at the treasures of human beings. Since this is the case, she also chose to cooperate with it completely, and then make another plan later.

'Let's take one step at a time!' Shen Mengting handed over her breath evenly.

"You're right, we'll focus on this hall!" Ozturk's voice increased a lot, and he seemed to have a posture that he would not give up until he did something good, "I can definitely find it!" his fists clenched unconsciously.

"Then let's start looking!" Kapil seemed to echo.

"En!" Qian Hao exhaled violently, "Let's go!"

As many people responded, everyone changed from standing still to walking.

Zhao Yu was still a little dazed at the moment, he didn't know what he should do now. But when he saw that they were all stepping up, he thought that he couldn't stand alone.

Judging by the words of those people just now, it was clear that they were about to start looking for treasure. But where exactly is the treasure?Zhao Yu stretched his head.

The hall they were in was empty, and it didn't look like a place to hide things. Zhao Yu pursed his mouth and shrunk his neck in embarrassment, he wanted to confide his thoughts to Shen Mengting.

Should I tell it? Zhao Yu was in a dilemma.

But at the moment when he hesitated, Jiang Jingwen put forward her opinion one step ahead.

"Sister Mengting, do you really want to look for it here?"

At first, Shen Mengting didn't react, but after glancing at Jiang Jingwen, she stopped walking, "Well, Jingwen, I'm looking for it here!"

"But......" Jiang Jingwen clenched her hands into fists uneasily, and brought them to her chest together, "I don't think this is a place to hide things!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jingwen actually replaced Zhao Yu and confided in his thoughts. Zhao Yu felt that his chest was much smoother, and he seemed to be able to breathe peacefully.

Shen Mengting sighed, "Jingwen! I also know this! But for now, the treasure can only be found from here." Because only here are the better odds!"

"And it's not just this hall that's looking!" Ozturk in the distance suddenly said, "I'm talking about this hall. We're all walking around here to see if there's any access to other areas. If there is, it is probably the exact location of the treasure!"

"Really?" Jiang Jingwen's uneasiness grew.

"Jingwen! Now I can only find it!"

"Yes!" Qian Hao now walked to the westernmost part of the hall, only to see him constantly groping for the edge of the wall, trying to find a point, "Anyway, the treasure is inside!"

However, no matter how Qian Hao tried, he found nothing.

"Yes, you can find some clues!" Shen Mengting also stretched her body and looked around from the wall. Feeling that there was no clue, she sighed and shook her head. However, she did not stop and continued to grope in the hall.

The crowd continued to busily search the hall and wander from place to place.

However, the sudden release of a sentence made everyone stop. It was Chen Tianhao's voice, and the assassin was standing at the southernmost point of the hall, rubbing the soles of his shoes against the ground from time to time.

"Don't look for it. You can't find the treasure!" Chen Tianhao showed a helpless expression, "Because the treasure is gone." It's been dug up a long time ago!"
