Chapter 96: Strange Treasure Chest

It's a pity that the kobold knows very little about the witch in red, and he can't even tell what the other party looks like, so Roland had to give up asking and ask him instead: "In addition to the witch in red, are there any other suspicious characters?" ”

The kobold touched his head and pondered, nodded and said: "I haven't seen it, but yesterday I heard the clansmen talk about one thing, it seems that three strange guys broke in, a half-dragon warlock, and two dark elves, Lord Yukka led a group of clansmen to try to set up an ambush and loot them, but they hit the iron plate and were killed miserably, and the half-dragon warlock at the head was especially powerful, and he skinned people from head to toe with a touch of his hands - not to strip clothes, but to skin people alive!" It is said that even Yuka-sama is no match for him, and he is so scared that he hides and does not dare to show his face all day! ”

He had not personally experienced these things, and excluding the addition of oil and vinegar, Roland could confirm that he was talking about the "Skinning Baron" Nero and his party. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"What are three strangers doing here?" Roland then asked.

The kobold shook his head with a bitter face, after all, he hadn't seen Nero and the others with his own eyes, so how could he know the purpose of their trip, and he couldn't make it up if he wanted to.

Seeing that he could not provide more information about Nero, Roland asked him if he had a map of the temple, or if he had a topographical map.

The kobold lay on the ground writing and drawing, sometimes stopping to meditate, and it took him a long time to draw a very messy sketch, among which the map of the green dragon area and the white dragon area was quite clear, and the other three areas were simply ghost drawings, and he couldn't tell clearly.

"I think that's all there is to this guy's head, after all, kobolds only operate in the Green Dragon District and the White Dragon District." Veronica said, staring at the map.

Roland bowed his head slightly and asked Lyudmila, "Did you write it down?" "She's the best at tracking on the team, and she can almost never forget the maps she's seen.

"It's okay to remember, but it's not clear whether this map is real or not." Lyudmila glanced at the kobold, "Just let this guy lead the way, and if you find out that the map is fake, kill him." ”

The kobold was frightened, and quickly nodded his head to show that he was willing to lead the way, and in order to prove his worth, he also took the initiative to reveal a secret: "There is a treasure chest near here, don't kill me, I'll take you to find it!" ”

"Treasure Chest!" The dwarf's ears immediately pricked up, and he couldn't wait to urge him: "Where?" Lead the way! ”

Roland patted him on the shoulder to signal not to get excited, stared at the kobold and asked, "If there really is a treasure chest, why didn't you take out the treasure earlier, and you have to keep it until now?" ”

The kobold shrunk his neck and weakly defended: "Just yesterday, I found the treasure chest with Dora, in a very hidden place, Dora rushed to open the treasure chest, but stepped on the trap and died miserably, I was so frightened that I turned around and ran, and never dared to go back." ”

Roland looked back at his companion: "I suspect this guy is lying, what do you think?" ”

"It's better to believe it than not to believe it, and to see that there is nothing to lose." Bloom scrambled to say.

Veronica nodded in agreement: "The terrain of this ruin is extremely complex, and there are many facilities that are protected by magic, which are usually inaccessible, but the magic devices will gradually become ineffective due to the passage of time, and the previously protected rooms and areas will be exposed, and it is not impossible for kobolds to break in and find treasures by mistake." ”

Lyudmila's attitude was even more straightforward: "Give him an hour before leading the way, and if you can't find the treasure chest within the time limit, kill him." ”

Roland cares about the kobold's twinkling eyes when he mentions the treasure chest, which is usually a sign of weakness. However, after thinking about it, his companion had a point, and everyone would be disappointed if they gave up the treasure hunt just because they suspected that the kobold was lying, so they nodded in agreement with Lyudmila's suggestion.

Bloom was overjoyed, kicked the kobold, and said angrily: "Don't play dead, quickly lead the way!" ”

The kobold didn't dare to complain at all, and hurriedly got up and led everyone to find the treasure chest.

Walk through the halls, weave your way through a maze of staircases and corridors, and finally the kobold stops in front of a tubular facility.

"It's this pipe, we originally thought it was a sewer, but we accidentally broke it only to find out that there was a strange magic in it, which can send people to various floors."

Listening to him describe the role of the magic pipe, Roland couldn't help but think of the elevator on Earth, and winked at Veronica, "Go over and check." ”

Veronica approached the pipe for a moment, then turned around and nodded: "He's not lying, it's a 'Wind Ladder', where the ancient arcanists summoned small wind elements from the wind elemental plane and tied them up in the pipes as servants, responsible for sending passengers to the floor they were going to. ”

"Does this device still work?" Roland asked.

"You should be able to, do you want to try it?"

With Roland's permission, the female ninja carried the kobold by the neck and entered the wind ladder together, and sure enough, a whirlwind rose from under the pipe, accompanied by a whining wind to hold them in mid-air.

Veronica knew a little about the WindClan language, so she used the kobold's confession to tell the floor where the treasure chest was located.

Shout! The small wind elemental supported them and sank quickly. After a few seconds, the whirlwind returned to the crowd, but Veronica and the kobold were gone.

"What's the matter, they're human." For the first time in her life, Lyudmila saw such a strange creature as the "Wind Elemental", and she couldn't help but feel furious.

Before the words fell, a girl's voice came from the air: "Mr. Roland, this pipeline is very safe, I have arrived at the underground floor of the Green Dragon District, you can also come here." ”

"It's Ronnie's message back with the 'Wind Signal' scroll, it seems that she has found the treasure." Bloom couldn't wait to drill into the pipe.

Roland took Lyudmila's hand and followed, stepping on the whirlwind under his feet, only to feel a flower in front of him, and his body floated.

The momentary weightlessness made him a little dizzy, but he quickly regained his composure and tensed his body to prevent the unexpected.

Fortunately, there were no accidents on this wonderful journey, and the wind ladder brought them to a stop in the underground hall safely.

Roland walked out of the pipe, and Veronica greeted him, "The treasure chest is real, and the trap has been removed, but it's weird...... Come and see. ”

This hall was originally the storehouse of the temple, and the rows of weapon racks were neatly arranged, but the swords placed on it had long since been rusted and unusable, and even the weapon racks themselves were severely weathered and fell apart at the slightest touch.

A large six-foot-square oak box was placed against the wall, the corners of the box wrapped in brass, emitting a strong magical aura, like a magnet firmly attracting everyone's attention.

Roland stopped in front of the treasure chest, turned back and asked Veronica, "What's wrong with this treasure chest?" ”
