Chapter 37: The Secret Treasure

Adams carefully put away the potion containing the "Potion of Comfort", which will be an important tool for him to resist the restlessness of demonic forces in the battle.

With this thing, Adams believes that he can at least make a draw with "The Vulture" in a short period of time.

Although he was transformed by the demonic bloodline in the Godforsaken Land, he had a physical strength comparable to that of a full-fledged soldier, but in fact, Adams was newer than any blank sheet of paper in terms of combat skills and fighting spirit, not to mention that he was seriously lacking in combat experience.

This makes him feel like a joke in front of opponents of the "same rank".

Fortunately, he can barely be regarded as a formal magician, and he can complement each other under the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.

Just as Adams was sighing about his bumpy road ahead, Hilton came up to him.

The alchemist put his arm around his shoulders and said mysteriously to the young man, "My lord, are you interested in the secret treasure?"

"Secret treasure?"

Adams searched his memories and finally understood what it was, a rare item with extraordinary power that people called a treasure.

There are many types of treasures, and their properties and functions are even more uneven, and in order to better distinguish them, the Magic Guild classified and rated them during the Dark Ages.

The rating divides the treasures into seven tiers: Common, Fine, Rare, Fantasy, Epic, Legendary, and Artifact.

Even the top alchemy masters dare not guarantee that they can produce treasures of higher quality every time, so people call treasures of rare level and above "secret treasures", which means treasures worthy of being kept secret.

Adams took a deep breath, the value of a secret treasure is incalculable, usually even a secret treasure of the "rare" class is often priceless, enough to set off a "bloody storm" among the middle and low class adventurers.

Because even if he is a powerless person, as long as he has a battle-type secret treasure in his hand that can be used by him, he can easily defeat a small group of low-level adventurers as easily as eating and drinking.

If it falls into the hands of a strong man who is already strong in his own right, the power exerted can only be described by the four words "terrifying".

The alchemist looked at the look of great yearning on Adams' face with satisfaction, and this was the effect he wanted.

"Didn't he want to cooperate with you before? Hilton paused, "That's because we found a small Dark Elf ruin in the Black Forest, where ......"

Through the alchemist's staccato descriptions, Adams finally understood what was going on.

During a regular clash between the "Rotten Scars" and the "Vultures" over rare materials, they discovered a small ruin that appears to have been left behind in the Dark Ages somewhere in the Black Forest.

Hilton, an alchemist who was also involved in this fire merger at that time, sensed the fluctuations of the secret treasure in the ruins through alchemy magic, and he swallowed this important news into his stomach and did not tell anyone.

The reason why this ruin, which has a distinctly dark elf style, has not been completely divided between the two forces is because of the prohibition in the ruins and a team of gnolls.

"You're saying that the gnolls were able to control the prohibition left behind by the dark elves?"

Hilton put the cleaned wild fruit in his mouth.

"It's not controlling, it's just that they can come and go freely, and unlike the High Elves and Wood Elves, the Dark Elves seem to have a soft spot for the cultivation of slaves. ”

He handed Adams a wild fruit, an unknown little fruit that was sour and perfect for passing the time as a snack.

"I think they're the descendants of the poor ones who were left behind when the dark elves fled. ”

Adams spread his hands at the alchemist, who was once addicted to the game and was happy to go to this kind of "dungeon"-like place to fight monsters and upgrade and pick up equipment. It's just a pity that this world doesn't seem to be a game.

There will be no pie in the sky, opportunities and dangers often coexist, if you are really unfortunate to be in the ruins "GG", then it is likely that the game is really over.

"I don't think I'll be able to easily deal with an opponent that 'Vulture' and 'Scar' can't do combined. He looked at Hilton with a frown.

The reason why the alchemists dared to come up with this idea must be some other way to increase their survival rate in the ruins.

Hilton spoke, patiently explaining to Adams.

"No, after thousands of years, the prohibition here is weak, and the gnolls are not a particularly formidable enemy for you. ”

The alchemist shook his head slightly, "The reason why both parties can't let go of their hands is that they are afraid of each other, and they are both afraid of each other's stumbling behind them. ”

The alchemist eats the second sweet and sour wild fruit, and Reina looks angrily at the "father of the forgotten cubs" who didn't give her the wild fruit to eat because he was afraid that she would have diarrhea.

"I believe that since the fall of "Scarred", after "Vulture" has integrated the opposing forces, his next target is likely to be directed at this ruin. ”

Adams probably understood what the alchemist was saying, and he took Hilton's words and said to himself, "So when the time comes, we'll take the opportunity and fish in troubled waters, right?"

The alchemist glanced at the young man in admiration, it was so pleasant to talk to a smart man.

He nodded, "Probably because of the "rotten scar", the vulture has never had a good opinion of mages, and there are only pure adventurers and mercenaries in his team, not even the little gangsters. ”

Adams' eyes narrowed, it sounded like the "vulture" was very ambitious, and it was almost like he was going to raise his own army.

The Vulture doesn't know the existence of the Treasure in the Ruins, so what is his goal? Treasures left behind by the Dark Elves, or weapons and equipment left behind by this race of forges.

Wait, weapons and equipment! Could it be that he wants to mix in this rebellion in the kingdom of Bato, just by some adventurers? Isn't he afraid to lose all his capital, or does he actually know something?

......

Hilton didn't notice the young man's contemplation, he continued to analyze on his own, "That is to say, although their overall strength is relatively strong, they are not satisfactory in terms of treasure hunting. ”

The alchemist looked at Adams with burning eyes.

"I'm confident I'll be able to find the treasure before the vultures loot the entire ruins. ”
