Chapter 960: Into the Ruins

Although this exploration team now gathers the elite forces of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce and the Tower of Dusk, and has quite strong strength, it is precisely because it is the elite under its own command that now, with the exploration team of the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family exploring the way ahead, this is a good thing that Lin Li cannot ask for, so he naturally will not be in a hurry to follow up.

In fact, Hoffman's thoughts, how could it not be like this, asking Lin Li for advice was just out of politeness, even if Lin Li really wanted to go in at this time, he was ready to persuade him. At this moment, hearing Lin Li's answer, Hoffman's fat face showed a wicked smile again, and said, "Hehe, I also have this intention." ”

Lin Li glanced at the huge ice and snow cemetery, turned his head and said to his subordinates here: "Although you don't go in, don't be idle, look at these demonic beast corpses, many of them are legendary, you go and smash it open and take out the magic crystal, anyway, it will be a waste to throw it here." ”

"Yes, Lord Elan," Elan and the others responded, and immediately led someone to destroy the ice sculpture.

These frozen monster corpses are no longer known to be old, but the legendary-level magic crystals will not be wiped out under the wear of time, but will be like a magician meditating, constantly absorbing the surrounding magic elements over time, and gradually growing.

"Hehe, President Ferrey is really ......" Hoffman shook his head amusedly, the young president in front of him was just like when he was young, and he would not let go of any benefits.

"I'm smiling at you, the Tower of Dusk has just been built, and the foundation is still very thin." Lin Li said to Hoffman very modestly, and the other meaning is that this is a small profit, you Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce should not fight.

Hearing Lin Li's answer, Hoffman was suddenly depressed: Others don't know how rich your Tower of Twilight is, can I still not know! Not to mention the harvest of exploring the Sky City and the Mausoleum of Osric, just the income from the potion and forging business, the wealth accumulated in the past two years is definitely not inferior to any of the top forces in the Light Wind Plain, and it is probably not much worse than the flash gold business, but how dare you say that the foundation is thin?

The magicians of the Tower of Dusk have already taken action at this time, and although those solid ice have existed for an unknown number of years, it will not take much effort for these archmages to break through them. It didn't take long for the legendary magic crystals that emitted powerful magic fluctuations to be dug out of the ice sculptures by them.

There were thousands of demonic beast corpses in the entire Ice and Snow Cemetery, some of which were buried deep underground, and the Legendary-level Magic Crystals dug up by the Tower of Dusk during this time also reached a dozen. You must know that a legendary magic crystal is sky-high in the outside world, and these dozen or so legendary magic crystals are also quite a huge fortune for any force, and even Hoffman, who has a lot of money, can't help but feel a little hot at this time.

The Tower of Dusk had just swept the Ice Graveyard when suddenly there was a strange movement from the palace, and then one after another figures retreated from the palace gates. These people were the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar Family's exploration team that entered the mausoleum first, but at this time, they all looked quite embarrassed, and many of them were injured.

As competitors, seeing that the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family's exploration team were so embarrassed, Hoffman and Lin Li should have gloated, but at this time, there was no smile on their faces. The two men glanced at each other, both saw the look of shock in each other's eyes, turned around and gave orders to their own people, changing their original plans and letting their men relocate the camp here.

Soon, the tent in the center of the camp was set up first, and the upper echelons of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce and the Tower of Dusk immediately walked in. Not only Hoffman and Lin Li, but also the other high-level leaders of the two forces, one by one, also had extremely serious faces, making the atmosphere in the tent look extremely solemn.

"I can't imagine how long they have only been in and they have withdrawn so embarrassed." There was no sinister smile on Hoffman's fat face at this time, but his brows were squeezed into a pimple, revealing indescribable anxiety.

Lin Li's expression was also not relaxed, he shook his head and said, "Yes, although the strength of their exploration team is a little different from ours, but in such a short period of time, it is indeed too unexpected for us to make such a loss." ”

What is the strength of the two sides, they are very clear to each other from the time they meet, so seeing the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family's exploration team withdraw in embarrassment, Lin Li and Hoffman immediately had an accurate judgment, the other party has lost at least a dozen fifteen-level powerhouses in such a short period of time in the mausoleum.

Everyone knows that this mausoleum is definitely not simple, but no one thought that it would be so simple. In the exploration team of the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family, there are more than three hundred powerhouses with strength above the fifteenth level, and there are more than a dozen legendary powerhouses, which is not not strong. However, how long they have only been in the mausoleum, it is less than half a day, maybe only two or three hours, presumably they have not gone far in the mausoleum, but there has been such a big loss, so what about going deeper into the mausoleum.

Although it is inevitable that there will be losses in exploring the ruins, such losses, whether it is Hoffmann or Lin Li, are not to be seen, especially since this is only the beginning. Talent is the most important thing for any force, and if you lose your vitality in order to explore a ruin, what if you get more wealth.

In response to the loss of the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar Family's exploration team, Hoffman, Lin Li and others had to renegotiate the issue of exploring the ruins. They are not willing to suffer too many losses in the process of exploration, but they are not willing to give up this mausoleum like this, after all, this is the mausoleum of Prince Brehill, once the exploration is successful, the harvest will be absolutely amazing.

"Elder, the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar Family's exploration party have relocated their tent outside the mausoleum. Several patriarchs and leaders on the other side also entered the central camp, and the entire camp was very heavily guarded. "The person in charge of monitoring the other party's movements entered the tent and reported to Hoffman and the others.

Hoffman nodded, waved his hand to let his men leave, and then said to Lin Li and the others: "It seems that they have not given up the exploration of the mausoleum. ”

Although after first entering the Grand Canyon of Gargarz and discovering the exploration team of the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family, Hoffman was very unhappy like eating a fly, but now he really doesn't want the other party to quit. In the face of unknown dangers in the tomb of Prince Bresil, what better way to be a pathfinder than the Mithril Alliance and the Caesar family's exploration team!

"I'm afraid they'll be scared and waiting for us to be pathfinders, so we're still going to be prepared to rely on ourselves." Lin Li didn't plan to delay too much time here, he had more important things to do, and it was impossible for him to spend time here with the other party. If the other party is really frightened, then Lin Li only has two choices, either enter the mausoleum, or directly withdraw to the Tower of Dusk, what ruins are not ruins, can it be more important than the catastrophe in the near future.

"Yes, it's naturally best to have them to explore the way, without them, we have to find a way to explore this mausoleum, now you can look at these things that are available now, and say what you think." Hoffman gestured, and someone next to him put the original materials and excavated items on the table again.

To be honest, these things, what can be studied, have already been imprinted in everyone's minds, and now if you want to find some new clues from them, it is simply like creating something out of nothing. Everyone smiled wryly one by one, frowning and looking at the items on the table one by one, but no one spoke for a long time.

"It's not much use just looking at these things, so I think we'd better think about it from another angle." Davos, who was sitting next to Basel, suddenly spoke.

Suddenly, all the eyes of everyone in the tent were focused on Davos, and there was some expectation in their eyes. After all, he was an archaeologist known throughout the kingdom of Fran, having published numerous scholarly works and often had surprising and unique insights into archaeology.

Facing the scorching eyes of many legendary powerhouses, Davos grabbed his fluffy beard and said indifferently: "You don't have to look at me like that, I'm not from Bresil, and I don't know anything more about this mausoleum than you." ”

"Master Davos said with a smile, please feel free to tell me if you have any new ideas." Although Hoffman is the president of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce and a well-known legendary powerhouse, he is still very polite to Davos.

Magic is power, potions are power, magic patterns are power, and the knowledge of the abyss is also a power. Although Davos does not have the strength of the legendary level, it has more profound knowledge than those legendary powerhouses who have lived for hundreds of years, and no one present dares to despise him in the slightest.

"It's a bit hard for me, I'm just going to give you a direction to think about, and I hope you can think of something." Although Davos was a little informal, he was not ignorant, pointing to the broken design on the table, and said: "Although this design is incomplete, it at least tells us a fact, that is, the design and construction of this mausoleum is indeed completed by the top craftsmen of the dwarves, as the legend says." So, since it was built by dwarves, some of the habits of dwarves will inevitably be left in the mausoleum, so you might as well think about it from this aspect. ”

Listening to Davos's words, everyone fell into thought, this is indeed a direction, since it is impossible to know the situation in the mausoleum exactly, then according to the inherent habits of the dwarven craftsmen, it should be possible to infer some clues about the interior of the mausoleum.

"According to historical records, we can get the approximate date of the death of Prince Brehil, and during this period, there were several of the most famous craftsmen in the dwarven kingdom, Diack, Salph, Moratra, ......" Hoffman compiled everyone's information and listed the names of dwarven craftsmen one by one.

"Blacksmith Master Diack, legend has it that he went deep into the Hyga Mountains for several years in order to find herbs for his daughter's terminal illness, and if the legend is true, then he probably won't have a chance to build this mausoleum."

"Moratra was the patriarch of the Copperfurnace tribe of the Dwarven Kingdom, and is said to have benefited greatly during the reign of Prince Brehil, and was once given relief by Bresil during the Great Famine. Therefore, the construction of Brehill's mausoleum should be indispensable to him, and with his skills, I am afraid that he is still one of the presiding officers of the construction. ”

"The original owner of this design is said to be the descendant of Master Salf, so ......"

Everyone verifies some legends about the famous craftsmen of the Dwarven Kingdom, and Hoffman's pen also focuses on circled a few names. In the end, although it cannot be said to be very certain, it is possible that eighty percent of the several famous dwarven craftsmen in history were involved in the construction of the mausoleum.

And there are more issues to be discussed next, after all, it is a long history, and even those serious historical materials may not be true, not to mention many wild history legends. And what they have to do is to find out the habits and characteristics of these dwarven craftsmen and masters according to these historical materials and wild history legends, which is not a simple matter.

However, everyone has intentionally or unintentionally overlooked one thing, for the entire mausoleum, the dwarven craftsmen are responsible for the overall construction, and the setting of magic traps and magic mechanisms inside is by no means something that dwarves can do. For an exploration team, it's the traps that are unguardable, and the potential for powerful grave keepers, rather than the structure of a mausoleum, that is really a threat.

The problem is that apart from discussing this, they don't seem to have any other way to understand this mausoleum than to find a breakthrough in this aspect. Yes, among them there is Davos, an authority in the field of archaeology, but Davos is not a god, although he is good at seeing things as they are from subtle clues, but if he doesn't have even a little useful clue, he can only be helpless.

After the heated discussion, there was a deathly silence, and everyone knew that the real gain from this discussion was actually quite limited. And with the discussion, the legends that could not be verified brought more questions to everyone, and the question about the mausoleum was not only not gradually clarified, but was shrouded in more and more questions.

"No, it's useless to discuss it like this, and with such a limited understanding, it's impossible for me to risk my subordinates." Lin Li rubbed the corners of his forehead, which was a little swollen, and his words were quite helpless.
