Chapter 70: Breaking into the Bank
Chapter 70 Breaking into the Bank
"Is thisβ?"
I looked up at the building in front of me. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's familiar, as I live in Iceport City, I come to this building at least once a month.
That's right, this is the bank, the bank near my apartment, and I have to come here every time I get my living expenses.
For a moment I wondered if we were here to get the snake slashing sword, or to get my living expenses.
"As you can see, this bank is where the snake slashing sword is kept, and it is also an important stronghold for elementalists." Wu Ye said calmly.
"No......"
"Don't you know, Zhao Jie?
Elementalists, unlike Magisters, live and work together with humans.
So many of their strongholds are your usual facilities, such as this bank, although it has a government sign, it will also handle business, but this is also the vault of the elementalists, and the managers here are basically the people of the elementalists.
Taking care of one's own property through the guard of the bank, such an act of using human beings is the old business of the elementalists. β
After Wu Ye's explanation, it was only natural for the elemental master to use this place as the storage place for the snake slashing sword.
"Since there is no guarantee that the Elementalist and the Magus will appear at the same time, we need a part of our strength to hold the gate, and the rest to break through the bank's internal defenses.
Xiaoxi, what do you think? β
The president nodded.
"Then Chartia and Headmaster Lisecht are guarding outside, your mana is too strong, and if you don't do it inside the bank, you will destroy the building."
"As a celestial, I have to be commanded by this kind of woman, hey......"
Pointed out by the president in a commanding tone, Chartia sighed a little depressedly.
"What, do you have any opinions?"
"Not really."
Chartia said, squinting at me.
To be honest, I wasn't interested in playing master-slave games with Chartia, but maybe I was poisoned by her, and looking at the way she looked, I could guess what she wanted.
I stroked her long pink hair.
"Chartia, listen to the president here."
"Master?! - Since it is the master's order, I can only obey it. β
Chartia rubbed against my chest like a pet.
It seems that I guessed it, and it was not so much that she was dissatisfied with the president's plan, but that she simply didn't want to be instructed by the president, and if she was instructed by me, she would happily accept it.
It's really a pet-like way of thinking, I really don't know how she has survived for so many years.
"Alright, hurry up." The president forcibly ripped Chartia off. "In short, breaking through the defense line within the bank is up to me, Zhao Jie and Olivia."
"I don't have my name." Wu Ye said.
"Store Manager Wu Ye, it's enough for you to help us get here, just leave the rest to us."
"Oh?"
"As an intelligence peddler, it's your style not to get too involved with any one side of the force."
"That's true." Wu Ye smiled mysteriously as if he had expected the president to say this. "Then I will accept your kindness, and let me retire first."
With that, Wu Ye walked into the distance.
I always feel that there is something important about him that has not yet been said, is it my delusion?
By this time, the president had already grabbed my wrist.
"Let's go, there's no time."
β¦β¦
I entered the bank with Olivia, the president.
The hall is still the same hall, except that there are no staff because the bank is off, everything is the same as during the day.
Unexpectedly, the location of the decisive battle was chosen here, and I always felt that there was no real feeling.
"Be careful, Zhao Jie."
That's when Olivia reminded me.
"This is indeed a lair built by elementalists, and although you don't feel anything as a human, after entering this bank, I can't use teleportation magic."
"Is that so?"
"Of course." The president said. "This bank is the vault of the elementalists, if you can still use teleportation magic freely here, won't the vault's insurance function be completely gone?"
"That's right, butβ"
I looked in front of us, the circular door that led to the inside of the vault.
There is no doubt that this is a real bancassurance gate, and as a good citizen, I have only seen such an insurance gate in movies.
If I'm not mistaken, this thing doesn't necessarily blow up even with an RPG.
"How do we get past this door without teleporting?"
"Lu Xunran should help us do this."
As he spoke, the chairman pulled the doorknob, and the safety door, which needed both a key and a combination lock, was opened very easily.
Could this be Lu Xunran's masterpiece?
"What kind of abilities does he have?" I couldn't help but ask.
"In the mage world, the elemental's natural magic, the mage's force field magic, and space-time magic are only the most basic types of magic, and as long as they are magicians, they can basically master some of them.
In addition, there are many other types of magic, but not all magicians can master them.
Some require a certain level of magical attainment, some are ethnically limited, such as efficient healing magic, which can only be learned by celestials like Chartia, and some are transmitted through blood, which is also the most common and endemic type of magic, known as bloodline magic.
And the reason why Lu Xunran came here first was not because of how high his level as an elementalist was, but because his blood magic was very suitable for playing a role in this kind of place. β
"So is the ability to patrol dyeing a telekinesis to unlock the lock?"
"That ability can't open the electronic lock." The president said. "Lu Xun's ability is far more practical than telekinesis.
He didn't open the lock himself, but he asked the bank's insiders to open it themselves.
That's right, his ability is hypnosis, controlling insiders to open doors and silently make guards defenseless, that's his job. β
"It's really handy."
"But if hypnosis is really that powerful, we don't need to be so sneaky." Olivia asked.
"Of course, hypnosis is not a panacea, and it is ineffective against objects whose magic skills are stronger than their own." The president said.
"So if you encounter an enemy here, how can you be sure that person has not been hypnotized?"
"Then you have to improvise......"
Saying something unreassuring, the chairman led us inside the vault.
I remember that the vault I saw in the movie only had the safe door opened, and I couldn't walk far to see the room where the money was hidden, but in this bank controlled by elementalists, entering the vault seemed to be just the beginning.
