Chapter Eighty-Six: Queen Heiner (Part II)
Udock, who had stepped on the flame trap, had passed out and collapsed to the ground. The walls of this basement are inlaid with gold leaf, illuminated by sconces, making it a dazzling sight. On five large silver bookshelves, there are a lot of things. Qing Chi turned on the blessing of the university Shihar, and sure enough, there were many magic mechanisms in the seemingly normal basement. The hideous dragon head statue over there would erupt flames as long as it came within five yards of it, and there were faint magic fluctuations on the ground in front of the bookshelf, and if you weren't careful, you might step on a trap. It seems that the legendary Queen of Heiner is not only violent in temperament, but also cunning and a tricky opponent. Qing Chi didn't have time to look at those delicate gems and ores, just looking for what he needed. Urdock, who fell to the ground, had all kinds of gems in his hands, and there were too many magic and mechanisms here to be too greedy. If you are too greedy, you will die here. Soon, inside a silver treasure chest, Qing Chi found something emerald green like a crystal, which should be the crystal nucleus of the tree spirit. After counting, there were about fifty or sixty of them, and Qing Chi packed them all into his package. Just as he was about to rummage through the key to the Forgotten Lands again, there was a sudden sound, and a strong aura swept over, without any hesitation, Qing Chi immediately drank a bottle of invisibility potion, threw out the satin, and quickly jumped onto the bookshelf, standing on the top.
A woman walked in slowly. She has long seaweed-like hair, a bumpy figure that makes people think about it, and she wears a long silver dress. It's just that there is a large scar on that face, which runs from the forehead all the way to the right side of the face. At this time, she walked in angrily, closed her eyes and sniffed deeply, and her right hand immediately turned into a claw, directly grabbing Udoc, who was half charred, and tearing him into minced meat. Qing Chi squatted on the top of the bookshelf and didn't dare to move. With her level, even if she drank the invisibility potion, the slightest movement would be noticed by her. Jiao and the dragon clan are very close, not only are they very cruel in temperament, but they are also very suspicious. For some reason, the Queen of Heiner left her wanderings and came to her own treasure room.
"Damn thief, how dare you covet my treasure!" Queen Hainer roared twice in a furious manner, and the head and face loomed. Suddenly, she seemed to notice something unusual in the silver treasure chest, and hurriedly stepped forward.
Qing Chi's breathing stagnated, and the whole person tensed, watching her come forward, secretly clenched the bow and arrow in her hand, it was really not good, she could only fight to the death. Queen Haina's steps became extremely slow in Qing Chi's eyes, the blood in her body almost coagulated, and she gently took down the bow and arrow, and Qing Chi's fingers pinched the bowstring.
Suddenly, there was a scream from above, followed by explosions and the sound of tables toppling over. Queen Heiner took a deep look at the treasure room, and finally walked out briskly, as if there had been some commotion outside.
Qing Chi gasped, calmed his heartbeat, and began to rummage quickly. The plan has changed, and the wandering side probably noticed that something was wrong and deliberately created some disturbance. Where is the key to the Forgotten Lands! By the way, that quaint key Queen Heiner won't like it, so she won't collect it in particular. Qing Chi became inexplicably impatient in his heart, trying to calm himself down and start thinking. She had been unconsciously focused on the treasure chests or shiny things. Finally, after a careful search again, I finally found an old key in the corner of an inconspicuous bookshelf. Qing Chi put the key in his backpack and was about to leave, when suddenly a flame erupted from the bookshelf. Qing Chi hurriedly dodged, carefully moving against the wall. Suddenly, Qing Chi noticed that something was wrong.
There is actually a mural in this treasure room. According to the Great Library, Queen Heiner had a brutal temperament, and the craftsmen who built the castle for her were all humans she captured from villages on the mainland, and after the construction was completed, Queen Heina brutally swallowed them all. How could Queen Haina, who loved only gold and silver treasures, admire such a mural depicting gods? Could it be ...... Qing Chi jumped over, reached out and touched the mural a few times, and sure enough, he found a strange bulge. After pressing it, I heard the click of a mechanism, and a stone cave with a small door appeared in the wall, and the sound of the tide could be faintly heard. I see! Qing Chi's eyes lit up. On the small door hung an ordinary lock, rusty and moss-covered. Qing Chi used his arm blade to pry a few times, and finally picked the lock. After opening this small door, a cold wind with a fishy smell suddenly blew out of the door. Qing Chi got in, and the narrow stone passage was already covered with seaweed, which was very slippery. This passage can barely allow people to turn around, and can only squat and move. After moving for a while, sea water was already pouring in, and the passage ahead was filled with seawater. Qing Chi only felt a hard Dong under his feet, and when he touched it with his hand, it was actually a human finger bone. After staying in this passage for a while, I only felt the continuous inflow of seawater, and I felt very difficult to breathe for a while. Qing Chi opened his eyes wide and looked hard for a while, in addition to the dead skeleton under his feet, there seemed to be a skeleton floating in the surging sea water in front of him, and there was a rusty pickaxe and an empty potion bottle in front of the passage.
If I'm not mistaken, maybe this place is a passage built by some workers to escape for their lives. However, when they desperately climbed in, they gradually found that they could not breathe, and due to the limited underwater breathing medicine, they fought with their companions and died here.
Qing Chi thought about it, took out a bottle of underwater breathing medicine, plunged into the surging seawater, and dived. The passage was dark and long, and he could only get a vague look, and after about five minutes of diving, Qing Chi finally saw a rusty iron fence. Outside the iron fence is the incoming seawater. It turns out that this passage is indeed connected to the outside. In this way, it may be possible to escape quietly from here.
Suddenly, a voice in the channel interrupted Qing Chi's thoughts - "Qing Chi, leave quickly after getting your things, don't come back, I've been discovered." Now that these monsters are attracted to me, you stealth and flee through the gate. Suddenly there was a sound of wandering and hurrying in the channel, and he rarely gasped for air like this, and his tone was full of anxiety. Qing Chi was stunned for a moment. Intellectually speaking, I have already obtained my quest items. It should be best for her to escape right now along this passage. But......
