"I said, I said, get that thing out of the way." The skeleton I was stepping on screamed desperately.

I didn't take my finger away, I just stopped my finger in front of him and said, "Either say it now, or I'll let you know right away what it means to be in pain." It's up to you. ”

"I said, I said, we are really the laborers who built the Seven Tombs, but we are not ordinary laborers, we are the foremen here, and we are responsible for supervising the work of other laborers. As for lying to you that the entrance is outside, it's because we want to get the treasure in the Seven Heroes Tomb ourselves. I'm ......."

Before the guy finished speaking, he had already pressed his finger on his forehead, and then the guy shook violently as if he had been electrocuted, and the strength was so strong that I almost didn't hold him down when I stood up. To make a skeleton burst out with such great power, it is necessary to burn the soul to do it, after all, skeletons have no muscles, their power is the power of the soul, and if you want to burst out of power beyond the normal value, you must burn the soul in excess to do it. But this guy didn't burn his soul to take me off, he didn't actually intend to burn his own soul at all. The situation just now was actually a side effect caused by my use of spirit burning to contact his soul fire. He is not actively burning his soul, but passively burning his soul by me, and the energy that bursts out increases his power in turn. Of course, this kind of power can't last, after all, the soul is not just for burning.

After pressing it for a few seconds, I found that the guy was almost unable to hold on, so I let go of my finger, and the soul fire of the other party had turned into a cloud of smoke, tumbling and merging in the skeleton's head, and it took nearly a minute for the chaotic smoke to reunite and ignite the soul fire again with a bang.

"Do you want to tell the truth now?" I asked in a tone of non-questioning.

"I ...... I'm telling the truth, I really ......."

This time I simply pressed my finger directly into the guy's eye socket, and then the guy instantly broke out into a struggle that was even stricter than just now, and actually lifted me off of him at once. Because my detachment soul burn stopped immediately because it was unsupported, but I immediately called out a large group of Death Guards to push the guy to the ground again, and then pressed the soul burn back before his soul fire could regather.

"Ah......h

He didn't really cherish the opportunity he had given him a chance before, but this time I simply pressed it in one breath until his soul couldn't gather at all if it burned again before letting go of my fingers. However, because the burn was so bad just now, it would take at least ten minutes for his soul to gather again, so I simply walked over to the other skeleton. The Death Guards wisely ran over and pressed each other to the ground like wolves, and then I held up the finger that burned with the fire of extinguishing the soul and asked, "Your companion has been burned by me and is about to collapse his soul, so are you going to try the pain of having his soul burned a little bit like him?" Maybe you don't know what kind of pain it is. I can tell you that it is a pain that you could not have imagined before, because people will fall into a coma after being overblown, but the soul will not be unconscious, and even if you are burned into a state of chaos, you will still feel pain, and it is the kind of intense torture that hurts to the heart. I've used this method to drive three angels and two demons crazy before, and with the strength of your soul, I think your resistance can last for an hour at most. So are you going to accept this hour of torment that is more painful than death, or do you just tell me what I want to know? ”

The soul fire in the skeleton's eyes beat violently for a long time, during which various colors flickered alternately on the soul fire, and finally the soul fire finally turned pure white, and then the skeleton spoke: "I am the protector mage who built the Seven Male Tombs, and you just tortured Wu Dun, the general of the Qin State who was responsible for building the Seven Male Tombs. ”

"And the wind bead from before?"

"The Wind Bead is not a key at all, just a prop used to create a wind tunnel trap, we just hope that you will be blown into the Soul Crushing Array above because you went to get the Wind Bead, but unfortunately your strength is too strong to succeed."

"Then why did you run just now?"

"We want to hide in the real Seven Heroes Tomb while you find the entrance."

"The real Seven Male Mounds? That thing is here? "I finally heard what I wanted to know most.

"That's right." The sudden answer was not from the undead on the ground, but from the hole behind me. At this time, the people who can come from there, except for the first echelon of the Russians, don't think about it at all.

"Arrived early, huh?"

"Not as early as you." The mage who led the team looked at me and said, "We have been arranging this plan for so long, and we even did not hesitate to use the whole country's troops to cooperate with us to act to attract your attention, but I didn't expect that in the end, it fell short. ”

"You haven't seen anything I live up to. Now it should be our guild's intelligence-gathering ability, and I alone can't detect your actions. But then again, how do you know about our country's mission? It seems that this kind of mission related to the historical process of the country will not be issued to foreigners, right? Could it be ......? ”

"If you can think of it, guess it yourself, I won't sue you anyway." The other party saw through my intention to deceive him, and slyly told my intention directly.

"Actually, it doesn't make sense to know now." I motioned for the Reaper guard to let go of the skeleton first, and then threw a handful of crystal powder into his eye socket, and his soul fire instantly ignited with a raging flame, and the excess even erupted from his eye socket. However, with the fire, his broken arm quickly grew, and the bones on his body also had a tendency to gradually change to metallic texture, but unfortunately, the color only changed slightly and then stopped, apparently the crystal powder was not enough for him to evolve from a gray skeleton to a metal skeleton. "Take him first." I whispered to the skeleton and commanded the Grim Reaper guard to climb up the cave wall with the skeleton that had not yet recovered.

Seeing the two skeletons and my Death Guard crawl up the wall, the mage's men immediately nervously tried to step forward, but I moved a step into the middle to block them all. "Hey, hey, hey, people are the first in the combat power list, give me some face, okay? Don't use me as air, or you'll suffer. ”

As I spoke, the skeleton of the national teacher had climbed to the top of the cave. Because of the crystal powder I supplemented, his body was obviously much stronger than before. A single piece of rock at the top of the cave was pulled open, revealing a hole in the wall that could barely be drilled through. The skeleton quickly slipped through the hole, and my Reaper's guards climbed in with him.

Seeing the skeleton and the Grim Reaper guard disappear into the wall, the Russians below immediately panicked, but as soon as they wanted to move, I suddenly took another step to the side to block it, and the other party immediately retreated timidly. If you fight in a group, these people are not afraid of me, but it's different if you go head-to-head, as long as you're not completely stupid, few people outside the top ten of the combat power list will think that they can fight me alone.

"Want to go over?" I hooked my finger at the guy who was about to charge forward. "Just beat me. Come on, young people should not be afraid of failure, but have the courage to challenge. Come on, defeat me and you'll be over. I was scared, but I never got the day to defeat me. ”

The guy who was going to rush forward just now was relatively young in the team, and the seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man was full of momentum, but now he couldn't hold back anymore when I was provoked. He suddenly screamed and rushed up with his weapon brandished, Kuke standing beside him reached out and didn't hold him, and the next second a red light flashed, and the guy was instantly blown into a pile of blood flying in the sky and sprayed Cook who was chasing him all over his face.

"Hahahaha, it's good to be young, he really believes it if you say a few words."

"You demon!" Cook couldn't help but shout.

I sneered and looked at Cook and said, "No, I'm not a demon. I am the Demon King, the demon of demons. If you don't want to die at my hands, you'd better get out of here, and especially don't step into my sphere of influence again, or I'll show you what a real demon is. By the way, you're probably going to die here this time, so I'm going to start attacking now, and I'll kill you all later. ”

"You ......"

"Don't do anything about you, me, aren't we enemies? An enemy should be an enemy. Come, attack me as much as you want, and I'll make you die a happy death. ”

"Don't deceive people too much."

I raised my hand and threw out a red dot that instantly blew the guy who interjected into a pile of rotten meat. "What are you talking about, little soldiers, leaders?"

"If you wait, you'll die, let's go up together and fight with him." A guy shouted and rushed up first.

I casually put it on the ground and praised, "Yes, that's the kind of spirit." What about the others? Is there only one man among you? ”

The rest of the first-echelon personnel who were provoked by me finally launched a charge, but it's a pity that I can't summon magic pets now. In the case that my strength is not ***, I will not be afraid of group fights. The guys lunged forward and my pet rushed forward, and the people on both sides quickly collided and a scuffle ensued. But the difference is that my magic pets are either super large or super high-level, and their strength is extremely terrifying, and the entire battlefield is almost a one-sided big ***, and there are only corpses left on the scene in less than ten minutes after the war starts. Of course, the corpses are all the other party's, and on my side, except for Ling's arm being bruised by a demon-breaking arrow, it can be said that there are almost zero casualties.

After leveling those shrimp soldiers and crab generals, the other party is left with the three leaders, of course, it doesn't matter to me whether they are alive or not, they can't do anything anyway.

"Kill them." Seeing that there were only three people left, I didn't even have any interest in doing it, so I waved my hand to let the pets settle down, and I myself had already walked towards the previous cave wall.

Looking at my three demon pets who were gradually surrounding them, the mage in the middle suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute. ”

"Huh? Is there anything else you can do? I asked, turning my head to look at the three guys.

"We want to make a deal with you." The mage said.

"Are you crazy?" Big Bear and Cook looked at the mage in surprise and asked.

The mage hurriedly explained to the two companions: "If we don't make a deal, we won't get anything, and we can at least get some benefits from trading with Ziri, do you want any benefits or nothing?" ”

After listening to the mage's words, the two gradually quieted down. As the mage said, they might still be able to gain some benefit if they made a deal with me, but if they resolutely resisted to the end, it would make no sense except to kill themselves once.

Seeing that the two companions accepted his point of view, the mage said to me again, "President Purple Sun, I know that we are no match for you, but you will not gain anything by killing us. ”

"Oh? Do you mean that I can get it if I make a deal with you? ”

"Of course." As he spoke, the mage touched into his robe, and the demon pet next to me quickly moved closer to the middle, blocking me behind me, thinking that he was going to take some weapon out, but the guy took out a scroll and a gem from his body and said, "Since you can follow us here, you should know what is inside." But even if you get it, it's useless, because its core isn't there. ”

"So that thing in your hand is the core?" I asked, looking at the gem and the scroll.

The mage nodded, "The gem is the core, and the scroll has a spell recorded. But don't try to rob, because even if you grab it, you won't be able to get anything, because the spells on the scrolls are written in a very special script, and the NPCs that issued the quests when we accepted the quest taught us how to read them, and you can't read them, so you can't use the spells properly. Without spells, even if you get a gem, the treasure is just a useless pile of garbage. What do you think? Come make a deal with us, shall you? We don't want much. Four-six open, you take the big head, we only need the small head, if you agree, we will go in together to open the treasure, and then we will help you read the spell. What do you think? Make a decision, right? ”

When I heard the guy's words, I held out a hand and said, "In that case, you can give me the things first." Anyway, according to you, it's useless to just have something. If what you're saying is true, you wouldn't mind giving me something first, would you? ”

The mage only hesitated a little before walking over to me, while Big Bear and Cook grabbed him. He looked at the two of them and said, "Don't worry, he won't understand anything given to him anyway." ”

The two of them thought for a moment and let go of their hands, and when the mage saw that they had let go, he walked over and handed the scroll gem to mine. I didn't look at the gem carefully after taking it, but handed it directly to Ling next to me to help me grasp it, and then I took the scroll myself and spread it out in front of me.

The mage had been staring nervously at my face since he handed me the scroll, and when he saw that my brow was furrowed, he immediately smiled smugly, and then smiled and asked, "How is it?" You don't understand, do you? Sue you, I have already identified this thing, it is neither Chinese characters nor ancient Chinese characters, even if you are Chinese, it is useless, you can't understand this thing at all. Come and work with us, shall you? We only need forty percent, and you take the lion's head. What do you think? Agreed? You don't lose money on this deal, you can get at least more than half of it if you cooperate, and you can't even get a hair if you don't cooperate, you should be able to calculate this account, right? ”

I finally lifted my head in the mage's smug smile, and then suddenly there was a slap that slapped the mage away. Big Bear and Cook immediately tried to rush to help, but they stopped before they could make a gesture to move, because they each had a bloody hole in their necks, and Night Moon was wiping the blood from her twin snake swords behind them.

After the two guys fell defenselessly, I directly waved my hand and took the demon pets to turn around and walk towards the hole in the wall, but I only walked a few steps, and the mage suddenly pounced, hugged my legs, and shouted: "President Purple Sun, you can't go!" You can't read the spell without me, you can't open the treasure without the spell, what I said is true, don't go, trade with me! ”

Looking at the mage who was holding my leg and didn't let go, I directly raised my leg and kicked him under the wall in front of me, and then took the scroll and said, "You idiot actually ran to verify whether this is Chinese writing, I think you should go and learn Chinese history first." We in China are not a country with a short lifespan like your insects, we are the only one of the five ancient civilizations that has not been broken. How many languages have been written in Chinese history that even we have not studied clearly, and you actually said that you checked that this is not Chinese. Okay, I'll let you know now that our Chinese culture is broad and profound. That's right, it's true that this thing wasn't written in Chinese characters, nor was it any kind of ancient Chinese script used for communication. What is recorded on this thing is Dingwen, a special script used only on sacrificial vessels and funerary objects. You can think of it as a kind of writing for the dead, and it is written specifically for your deceased ancestors. In Chinese rituals, this thing is a sacred text used to communicate with ancestors, so it definitely does not appear in daily life. In ancient China, only specialized priests would write this kind of writing, and ordinary people did not know this thing at all. Would you be stupid enough to ask someone to identify whether this thing is a Chinese character or not, can you identify it? ”

Hearing my words, the mage's face was almost as dead as ashes, and he was confident that he was trying to use that spell that no one could understand to blackmail me into sharing the treasure with him, but I was able to recognize the words, which was equivalent to instantly making his use infinitely close to zero. And what made him even more depressed to death was that he actually handed over the thing directly to me, if he had known that I recognized this text, he would never have given it to me even if he destroyed it, after all, the original intention of giving it to me was that they could also get a part, if they didn't get it at all, of course they would rather I not get it, after all, it is a hostile relationship now, and it is better for us to get it than to destroy it. Now the mage regretted it and wanted to slap himself in the face.

Seeing that guy regretted it, I really didn't bother to kill him myself, but if I didn't do it, naturally I had a demon pet to help me. The king walked straight over and grabbed him by the hair with one hand, pulled his sword around his neck with the other, and threw him to the ground like a chicken, leaving him to kick and kick and die.

I put away the scrolls and gems, and then I put the pets away. The hole in the wall is relatively narrow, and the large magic pet will definitely not be able to get through, and it is not convenient to take so many people to drill around. After putting away the pet, I walked to the edge of the cave wall by myself, and quickly climbed to the top of the cave along the rocks protruding from the wall, and as for the hole, it seemed that I had a bit of a hard time getting through. Fortunately, this hole is only made of rock, and it is much easier to drill the diameter of the hole by cutting through the protruding rock with eternity.

In fact, the real narrowness of the hole is only a small section of more than a meter long at the entrance, and after passing through that section of the passage, the hole behind it begins to gradually increase, and after climbing forward for three or four meters, it is already possible to crawl on all fours instead of crawling. After a meter or two further ***, the height of the cave can even make people bend down and walk in it, and the cave ten meters away is even wider enough to play high jump inside.

After walking more than 50 meters along this passage, the passage suddenly turned a 90-degree right-angle bend to the left, and when I turned the corner, the scene in front of me made me stunned for a moment.

Although the part before the curve gradually opens up, it is still a passageway, but the part after the curve cannot be described as a passage at all. It's a dungeon, and it's one of those mega-metropolis dungeons, so big that I can't even see the walls of the cave on the other side without activating the observation aid.

"Your Excellency, you're finally here, have you finished handling the matter over there?" The skeleton of the national teacher, who had been rewarded with some crystal powder by me before, saw me appear around the corner, and immediately ran over and said flatteringly.

"What is this place?" Looking at the huge dungeon in front of me, I was in no mood to pay attention to this former national teacher. I was thrilled by the old-style buildings and the well-groomed streets. You must know that this is on Chinese territory, which means that this place can be occupied by us and built into our own city, and the city is obviously basically completed, and all we have to do is make some small modifications to it and then it can be used directly. Not to mention the treasures here, the city alone is worth the price of admission.

However, after seeing the city, I kind of regretted killing those three guys. Because I would be curious to know whether the original purpose of their Russians was the treasure or the city. You know, the city is built underground. In the Zero, there is a rule about urban cities, which is that cities that have no other ground structures other than exits and ventilation outlets do not enjoy urban territorial circles.

Originally, according to the system, this rule should have been a punitive rule. Because dungeons are obviously much simpler than ground cities in the defensive battle of monster siege, and dungeons are inherently easier to defend, which is an innate advantage. However, if everyone builds dungeons, the whole style of the game will be broken, so in order to make a little balance to the dungeons, the system gives dungeons such a rule.

Generally, cities will have their own territory after they are established, and if the city level is high enough, the people of the city can get some special attribute bonuses within this range. In addition, the urban territory circle has a more important role, which is the demarcation of boundary lines. When two guilds build two cities in a relatively close area, the system will automatically divide the boundary line according to the territory circle of the two cities, so that it is more clear where whose territory is. Similarly, in wars between countries, urban territories can also be used to mark and occupy the territory of other countries, which is the main role of building cities in other countries.

But the dungeons are different. It has no territorial sphere, and the land above its head is not part of its territory except within the city limits. This attribute makes it impossible for dungeons to be used to occupy territory of other countries, or to divide borders between guilds, or even to supply points in the Advanced Leveling Zone. After all, high-level ground cities can provide some attribute assistance for level-ups, but dungeons can't provide anything. Such a city is naturally not suitable for cultivation in the leveling area.

But...... The problem of dungeons not having a territory may be a very useful attribute at this stage. Because if the Russians occupy this dungeon here, then because the dungeon does not have a territorial circle, the surrounding guilds will not find their territory smaller at all. Well, that is, they will not know that there is an additional Russian city here. Conversely, although the Underground City does not have a territorial circle, if the Russians occupy it, then the interior of the city is indeed Russian territory. That is to say, the Russians can use their domestic teleportation array to teleport here at will in the future, and then as long as they leave through the exit of the dungeon, it is equivalent to crossing the border into the inland area of our country. This is equivalent to the establishment of a super teleportation point in our country, and if there is such a nail in the country, it is definitely not a good thing.

Regret is regret, no matter what, people have been killed, and there is no chance to regret it. Besides, even if they don't *** drop, they won't tell me the truth, so even if they don't kill them, it's probably useless.

The Skeleton Master replied very politely after I asked him, "This is where the laborers lived when the Seven Heroes Tomb was built. Because the Seven Tombs were too large to be completed in a short period of time, we built a city here to make it easier for laborers to live and work. ”

"What? Isn't this place the Seven Male Mounds? ”

"Of course not." The national teacher skeleton replied, "The Seven Heroic Tombs are a building, not a city. Of course, the actual size of the Seven Tombs is actually comparable to that of the city, and the construction is much more difficult than that of the city. Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken three generations to complete. ”

I nodded and asked, "Since there is a city here, there must be a lot of laborers, right?" ”

"Well, I don't know the exact number, but it should be about 150,000 people."

"One hundred and fifty thousand? Then why did I only find a few thousand of your skeletons over there? ”

"Oh, that's right." The national teacher explained: "At the beginning, we recruited a lot of people to come in and work. Some of them were originally families, and some of them later married here and gave birth to offspring. They have been working here all their lives, and their children have become laborers in the construction of the Seven Tombs. When they died, the bones were buried outside the Seven Male Mounds to provide life gas. Their sons continue to work here and start new families, but the children of these families are taken away after weaning and sent outside to be raised, so they don't know about it. As children continue to be sent away, the population here continues to decrease due to the death of the elderly and various accidents, and in the end there are only about 20,000 or 30,000 people left, and these people are already old. Most of them died in the last years of the construction of the Seven Male Mounds, and then after the Seven Male Mounds were completed, a total of a few thousand remained. ”

"The thousands of people in that place where I found yours?"

"Yes." "I was ordered to go there with the general to execute the last laborers, so that no one would know about the situation here. However...... "Speaking of this, the soul fire of the national teacher began to flicker endlessly, and it was obvious that his feelings fluctuated greatly. "But...... But what I didn't expect in the end was that the official who accompanied us turned out to be a dead man. He used the excuse of completing the mission to drink celebratory wine with us, but who knew that he used poisoned wine, and in the end he was poisoned to death with us. ”

"I see. In this case, you also died unjustly. At this point, I suddenly changed my words and asked, "But since you were killed by the monarch, why do you keep this secret for him?" ”

"We don't!" At this time, not only the national teacher, but even the general skeleton just now also shouted. After such a long time, his soul fire had already recovered, but because it was burned too badly, his reaction was a little sluggish. But what I said just now made him think that I was going to punish them again, and he quickly denied it.

"None? Since you don't want to hide, why did you just trick me into the fake entrance? ”

"This ...... This ......"

"What, this, that? Do you want to taste the burning soul again? ”

"No, no, no." As soon as I heard that I was going to burn with that soul again, the two skeletons immediately shook in fright. "We're not trying to help the monarch hide the secrets here, we're just trying to resurrect them with the treasures in the Seven Heroes' Tombs."

"Resurrection?" I immediately became nervous when I heard the words of those two skeletons, not because the baby was too good, but because it was too bad. For people in reality, resurrection can be said to be a fantasy, but don't forget that this is a game. My wife Rose is a resurrection mage, and the flesh and bones of the dead and dead are called supernatural events in reality, and they are commonplace here. If the things in the Seven Male Tombs can only turn skeletons into living people, then the use value is too low. "The things in the Seven Heroes Tomb are used for resurrection?"

"No, no, no." Probably hearing my dissatisfaction, the two skeletons quickly shook their heads. The skeleton of the national teacher, who had a relatively strong soul, quickly explained: "Resurrection is only one of the functions, the things in the Seven Heroes Tomb are very powerful, how can there only be one function, resurrection?" In fact, the ability to resurrect the dead is just the most basic ability for that thing. ”

"That's pretty much it. If it's something that can only resurrect the dead, then I'm not working in vain? Okay, now hurry up and take me to see that Seven Heroes Mound. ”

"Yes, please come with me, my lord."

The Seven Male Mounds are not actually hidden, or rather, they are not hidden at all. Right in the middle of the dungeon in front of it, there was a large hole with a diameter of more than thirty meters. At the entrance of the cave there are two spiral staircases that look like DNA double helixes spiraling around each other to the bottom of the cave, but I have no intention of going down from this staircase. You must know that it is a thing of the Qin Dynasty, and it is a miracle that it has not rotted for so many years, and it would be strange if I stood on it and did not collapse.

Flying directly from the center of the cave to the bottom of the cave, a wide arch passes through a thin stone wall, and a large underground space appears in front of it, and in this underground space there is a ...... A ...... A building that I don't know what to call it.

The first thing to be sure of is that the building is very large, and it is larger than the size of a small city.

The base of the building is square, and at its four corners there are something like an arrow tower. Behind the tower is the main body of the building, which looks a bit like a Mayan pyramid, but not quite like it. Although the lower part of the building shrinks upwards in a stepped pattern, like the Mayan pyramids, the structure extends only halfway to the building, then suddenly becomes vertically upward, and finally expands outwards at the top of the building to resemble a roof. Overall, it's as if the Mayan pyramid was cut in half and a castle tower was placed on it. However, this building is not the usual wooden structure of the castle tower, but is made of all-metal.

Although many people now regard the castle tower as a Japanese-style building, that thing is not *** original at all, but an authentic Chinese product. In fact, the castle tower is a very popular architectural style in the Spring and Autumn Warring States period in China, but later the domestic architectural style changed, and the *** people retained this architectural structure intact, and finally many Chinese people regarded this thing as *** architecture.

I'm not surprised to say that these seven mounds use the style of the castle tower, after all, the historical period can be correct, but what is the matter with this all-metal structure? At that time, although China could smelt bronze, the thing in front of him was obviously not bronze. In fact, looking at the whole golden building in front of me, I always had a question in my heart - could this thing be pure gold?
