Chapter 20: Helena's Mission
Roger and Helena stood in a brightly lit cavern with numerous stalagmites and stalactites in front of them, and a large cluster of giant tans. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Those rays of light come from the mineral elements in the stalactites, and the water droplets dripping on the stalactites reflect the colorful brilliance, mixed with the original light, and look extremely beautiful in the dark underground world.
This is the dwarven underground city, near the entrance to the ruins of Blackstone City, where Helena's quest is located, only a few tunnels away from the dwarven graveyard, and it took them an hour to get here.
The cemetery over there is obviously this dwarven city.
"I guess it's here."
Helena took out the file and made out the terrain around her, which she couldn't identify.
I don't want to drop the chain at this time. "I'll take a look, I'm familiar with the terrain here." Roger held out his hand.
These dossiers are internal materials of the Holy See, and they are generally not available to others, and Helena spent a lot of time collecting them for this trial task.
However, it was not a highly confidential information, and she couldn't access things that needed to be kept secret, so she hesitated for a moment and handed it to Roger.
Along the way, if it weren't for Roger, she wouldn't have been able to get here, not only to identify the terrain, but also to avoid the monsters underground.
"Roger seems to have grown up here."
Helena had thought so, but she immediately denied it. The Dark Lands are home to tribes of monsters such as the Minotaurs and Cave People.
Even if you have dark vision and are familiar with the underground world, it is impossible for a human to survive in such a place for many years.
"He's just familiar with it."
Helena remembered what Dimon had said about Roger and was inclined to think so.
It's all come to this point, and Helena no longer cares about anything, isn't it just some files. Completing the task is what she needs to care about, and she can't take care of other things.
"It's very detailed."
Roger looked at the map in the dossier, and the topography of the entrance was not very accurate, but it was very detailed. "What is this?"
[Ding, congratulations, you have obtained a spell: Blackstone City Gate Open Spell]
What Roger saw just now was the spell to open a gate in the ruins of this dwarven city, written on the file.
Because most of the hero classes in "Hero Continent" will cast spells, those magic spells are very complicated, and players will remember so much.
Although the virtuality of "Hero Continent" is very high, the attribute points in the game will still only work on the character, not on the player, so the player will still rely on the assistance of system information records.
After arriving here, the system in Roger's mind seemed to retain this function, which saved him a lot of trouble.
After comparing the cave with the information on the map, Roger stopped at a rock wall that was uneven and cracked with moss.
Roger's eyes were carefully observed on the surface of the rock wall, and after a while, he drew his thin sword and scraped it on the surface of the rock wall several times in a row, only to see the moss fall one after another, and several rune patterns appeared inside.
"The location of the gate."
Roger returns the file to Helena.
"Roger, I'm kind of adoring you." Helena finished saying a long incantation,
“at,etre,lou,folou,ah。”
The rune pattern on the rock wall flashed with light, and then the rock wall where the runes were located slowly moved away, and inside was another large cavern, the light was even brighter than the outside, which was produced by the glowing ore embedded in the rock wall in the dwarven city.
Inside are the ruins of the ancient dwarven underground city of Black Rock City.
The dwarven cities are all converted underground caves, divided into many districts, connected by numerous tunnels and stone steps, there are not many entrances and exits, and the gate in front of you is not the main gate, the main gate is larger.
Entering the dwarven city, Roger led the way in front of him, walking through a tunnel of stone steps, in front of which was a small square, surrounded by many caves, which were the dwarves' dwellings, and this was the dwarven settlement.
Several short skeletons stood in the middle of the small square, each holding a hand axe, and the eyes of the two originally empty skeletons flashed with green soul fire.
Seeing a creature enter, the skeleton rushed over with a clattering stride with a hand axe.
Helena was already overdone, and Roger killed the little skeletons in three or two clicks.
"Let's go straight to the temple."
Helena took out the file and pointed to an area of the city on the map, where the city's temple was located, and it was necessary to pass through a large square, where the main gate of the city was located.
"Where is your Holy Grail in the temple?" Roger asked.
"It's in the temple."
Roger understood, when they got to the temple, they still had to look for it, and Helena was just guessing, whether there was a Holy Grail or not.
"Let's search the nearby houses first, and try to gather clues."
Actually, Roger wanted to find out if there was a treasure or something, since he came, he couldn't give up in vain, Helena didn't seem to care about these things, but he was short of money and equipment.
"Okay."
Helena didn't have much else in mind, although she thought Roger was a jerk, but he was also very reliable, a very reliable jerk.
She already trusts Roger very much, and she can only rely on Roger.
Then, one by one, they searched the dwarves' houses, which were full of undead creatures, but even lower than those in the cemetery, just small skeletons, not even zombies.
The only difference is that the skeletons here are all armed with weapons, and they quickly cleaned up all the monsters they encountered along the way, but unfortunately they didn't find anything good.
Only one last dwelling remained, and when they walked in, they saw a large hall.
"Hmph, this is where a big man lives."
Roger's judgment is accurate, and of course what he cares about is that the big guys will always have good babies.
The first was to clear out possible skeleton monsters, but after carefully inspecting all the rooms, they found that the building was empty.
There were only a few dwarven bones in this house, a total of ten rooms, and since there were no monsters, Roger began to search carefully and unhurriedly.
But ten minutes passed, and nothing was gained.
"There's no treasure."
Helena followed Roger all the time and said weakly. She didn't do anything, just watched Roger chatter, walking around the room, and she couldn't stand it anymore.
He used to be a pretty reliable person, but now he's suddenly a little silly.
"Nope."
Roger stretched out a finger and shook it, and said confidently: "This is the residence of the big man, be patient, the baby will not suddenly fly into your hands." ”
"Hey—"
Helena let out a long sigh, when she got here, she didn't have any opinions, she didn't dare to run around alone, seeing that this handsome good boy had become so persistent, so stupid, she could only follow boringly.
"One minute at most, we'll leave this accommodation." Helena still decided to use the power of the employer.
Roger shrugged his shoulders and was speechless, the power of the employer was terrifying. In a minute, it looks like it's going to be over next time.
Reaching the innermost room, there was a skeleton on the ground, and this was the second time he had entered it.
He stopped again and looked at the bones for a moment, then crouched down, took out his thin sword and picked at the bones a few times, and finally found something, the tip of the sword was raised, and a gray key flew into the air, and he caught it with one hand.
"Where there is a key, there is a treasure, a good sign."
This room is not large, with a stone bed, and it should be a bedroom. Now that he has the key, Roger's confidence has increased greatly, and there are only ten seconds left, which is the moment when the power of the employer takes effect.
