Donk followed the person in charge of the lottery to the main city again, but this time instead of entering the castle, he bypassed the clearing and came to the garden behind the castle, and finally entered an underground entrance.

The guards at the entrance blocked the idlers and others, and only allowed Tang Ke and the responsible personnel to enter.

There is a stone staircase leading to the ground, and at a glance there are hundreds of steps, as if leading to a deep world. There is a long row of glass lamps on each side, but instead of a flame, it is made of some kind of luminescent crystal.

"There's not just a storage depot down there, but there's a lot of other places, and I don't know exactly what they are. I was warned not to talk nonsense when I got down there, lest I get into trouble. The person in charge said to himself, but in fact, he said it to Donk.

Tang Ke remained silent as he spoke, and as he walked step by step, he released a ** shadow energy to probe the situation behind the wall. At first nothing was found, but when you got to the lower level, some of the walls formed their own spaces behind them, and there were objects and living things inside.

They turned a few stairs and reached the depths of the ground, but they still didn't reach their destination. The two of them stood in front of a metal door, in front of which was a fierce beast, and next to it stood a metal armor.

The beast resembles a tiger, but it is bare and has huge ears. The metal armor did not move, and he held a broad-bladed sword in his hand.

Tang Ke used the investigation technique, and the fierce beast is called the Ear Hearing Beast, and its strength is average, but it has some abilities related to "ears". The metal armor is a set of heirloom equipment, and there is a powerful sword spirit living in it, even if it is a seventh-order powerhouse, it is not an opponent, it is very terrifying.

It seems that there must be a secret treasure hidden in the vault below, otherwise there wouldn't be such a lineup of gatekeepers.

"It's called the Ear Beast, it can hear the voices in our souls, and if someone pretends to be me and runs here to receive a prize, it will anger it. If it gets angry, it's the next one's turn to strike. The officer in charge explained, peeking at the sword spirit, and quickly withdrew his gaze.

The Ear Beast walked up to the feet of the person in charge, listened with a pricked ear, and nodded. It leaned in to Donk's feet again, looked up and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Donk."

The Ear Beast listened to Donk for a while, then shook his head and said, "Alright, you can go over too." ”

Tang Ke deliberately touched the Ear Beast to activate the recruitment, but this ability of the Ear Beast is not very useful, and can only be used to identify certain people.

The metal door in front slowly opens with a creaking sound, and inside is a square space, sealed on all sides, with beautiful carvings on the walls. The moment he entered, Tang Ke felt a slight chill coming from the sword spirit, and the sword spirit seemed to be very interested in him. He stirred up a sword qi and swept away the coolness, the sword spirit did not have an order, he did not dare to make a move, and he stopped after a little temptation. Tang Keduo glanced at the sword spirit, and then entered the house.

The metal door was lowered, and the whole space began to fall, like an elevator.

"This facility was left over from ancient times, and it can't be made at all now, and the technology of the ancients is really powerful." The person in charge sighed.

After a stop, the metal door opened again. Donk estimated that it should be about a thousand yards underground.

After getting out of the elevator, the two passed through several corridors, and encountered some guards for interrogation and inspection, and then came to a straight passage with a golden gate at the end.

Tang Ke was full of bad eyes, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Can you bring anyone you bring to receive the award?" For example, bring a person who has not drawn a lottery here, claim that he has won the first prize, and then cheat the prize away. ”

"In that case, I'll be so nervous that I won't be able to get past the Ear Beast. Even if I can get by, where can I escape with my treasures? This is a pirate city, and once it is blocked, not even a fly can fly out. The officer in charge smiled bitterly.

"This is easy to do, you can hone yourself first, and strive to get to the point where your heart doesn't beat when you lie, so that you can get past the level of blindfolding. After you receive the first prize, let the outside use the Hawkman to answer and give the first prize to the Hawkman to take away. After the Hawkman flew out of the pirate city, he threw the first prize into the sea, let the sea beast take it away, and finally transported it elsewhere. Don Ke laughed, "Isn't that the end of it?" ”

The person in charge said embarrassedly: "The first prize was shipped out, is my life still there?" Don't talk nonsense there, let the experts here hear it, you have to be angry. ”

Donk smiled and closed his mouth.

The two of them walked to the end, and through this door was the storage room.

The officer in charge knocked on one of the doors and windows, and there was movement inside. The doors and windows were opened, but there was nothing to see inside. The person in charge respectfully explained the matter of receiving the award to the door and window.

The door and window closed, and after a while, a small door opened on the door, and from inside came a flower pot, in which a small green sapling was planted.

The sapling was only as tall as an eight-year-old child, its bark was gray, its outstretched branches were covered with green leaves, and in the middle of the trunk was a baby's face, and there were many green textures scattered over it, and if you looked closely, you could see a faint glow in the textures. At the base of the tree there was a fountain of life, but it was very rare, barely enough to drink three sips.

Tang Ke laughed and said, "This sapling is too small, it looks like a garlic seedling." ”

"Be content. This tree of life is extremely difficult to find, even if it is just a sapling, it can sell for more than 300,000 gold coins. The officer in charge said greedily.

Tang Ke got cheap, so he didn't sell it, and took out a deposit slip and stuffed it to the person in charge: "This money is reserved for you and those brothers to buy wine and drink." ”

The person in charge took it and saw that there were 1,000 gold coins written on the deposit slip. He thanked him happily, saying that Tang Ke would be a man and have the demeanor of a grand master.

When the pot was sent, the small door was closed, and there was no movement in the storage room, there was a dead silence, and I didn't know how many treasures were hidden inside, and who was suppressing it.

Donk crouched down and touched the Tree of Life with his hand.

"Ding! You've discovered a new magical creature that adds 10 bonus points and it expands the Bestiary. ”

Tree of Life:

Race: Vegetative.

Surname: wood.

Skills: Elemental Absorption (it doesn't need the moisture of sunlight and rain and dew, it only needs to absorb the elements to grow, in the same way, if you feed it with element-rich magic stones, it will grow faster) Breeding Spirit Spring (use the root to breed a spring water, the speed of gestation depends on the number of elements absorbed, this spring water can only be taken by the elves, and it can increase many castes after taking it) Green Whip Whipping (condensing the elements into a whip and slamming the enemy, by the way, only the people who hurt it, It will only consider it an enemy) Elemental Attack: ★★★★★★ ☆ Life Area: Unknown.

"It turns out that the tree of life has a mind!" Donk was taken aback, then ecstatic.

If it is an ordinary plant, it cannot be recruited through the system, but a few plants with intelligence can be recruited. And this tree of life is one of the plant families. He glanced at the required points, and the Tree of Life in its infancy alone required more than 10,000 bonus points.

Although the reward points required are huge, it is still worth the cost, as a single tree of life can sell for 300,000 gold coins!

There is a reason why the Tree of Life can be sold at such a high price, first of all, the Fountain of Life bred by this tree has a very significant effect, and ordinary elves can have the power of a first-class swordsman as long as they drink three sips! As long as there is a tree of life that can produce a steady stream of spring water, you can create a powerful elven army!

A burning color erupted in Donk's eyes, the tree of life in this world was on the verge of extinction, but he could recruit it!

He is the only one in the world who has this resource!

Just one tree of life can make a strong person like Eunice red, but what if it's five? What about ten? What about a piece?

He can use this resource to make the elves of the world look at him!

"I'm afraid this is the rarest and most powerful recruitable in my entire system." When Donk thought of this, he was so excited that his body stiffened.

The tree of life felt the touch, and its young face moved, its eyelashes lifted, and its big eyes opened. It looked at Donk and babbled at something. The Tree of Life has a mild surname, and as long as you don't hurt it, it will treat you as a friend.

In Tang Ke's eyes, the Tree of Life was a cornucopia, and he stroked the face of the Tree of Life a few times, and said with a smile: "Can you talk?" Listen to Uncle Shout. ”

The Tree of Life babbled a few times, it was still too small to speak.

The rest was simple, Donk asked the people of the Pirate City for help, found a large wooden box, loaded the Tree of Life into it, and placed it on a cart. The pirate city sent the Buddha to the west, and also sent a team to help escort it.

Donk whistled and led the way, leading the group to the inn "Gentle Harbor".

He had already ordered his men to keep their mouths shut and not to talk nonsense, lest the news spread too widely. This is a pirate city, and the security is better than the imperial city of the empire, so you don't have to worry about someone coming to rob it, but after taking the tree of life out of the city, you have to be extra careful.

There are many people who know that Donk has obtained the Tree of Life, one is the Pirate City gang, and the other is the Eunice gang, and these people will not help him keep it secret. Once the news leaks and is heard by someone with a heart, it is inevitable that you will miss Donk. 300,000 gold coins is not a small amount, and many people will be willing to take risks with their surnames.

But Donk is not a soft persimmon now, not a top ten pirate group, don't think about beating his idea!

"Mr. Donk, please stay." A coquettish voice sounded from behind, like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, which made people feel comfortable after listening to it.

Although the voice was good, it made Tang Kezhi frown, he turned his head, looked at the slender figure, and asked, "What is Miss Eunice?" ”

…… The two mingled among the passers-by and walked forward as if nothing had happened, one dressed as an old lady and the other as a peddler. The acting skills of the two are excellent, so that people can't see the flaws at all, but if you look closely, you can find that the eyes of the two drift to Donk and Eunice in front from time to time.

Donk spoke to Eunice and walked into a hotel.

The old lady pretended to throw a handkerchief on the ground and leaned over to pick it up. The peddler happened to pass by at this time, and when he looked down, the old lady made a gesture to keep up, and the peddler understood, and continued to move on. The old lady picked up the handkerchief, turned around, and changed the direction she was going.

The two went their separate ways, the peddler followed Tang Ke into the hotel, and the old lady dodged into an alley, and when she came out again, she had already changed into a lean dress.

The two were thieves sent by Kandal, and they had been following Tangk since he left the house in the morning. During the tracking, the two changed their outfits several times in order to prevent being discovered, and the means were very clever.

The "old lady" ran through the streets, as fast as a horse, and after crossing five streets, climbed the wall of an inn, stopped on the third floor, and knocked on the window.

Kandal in the room was pacing restlessly, and when he heard the movement, his body turned into a bolt of lightning, teleported to the window, and pulled the window open.

"Captain, I saw Donk and Eunice meet, and the two of them entered a hotel together, and the name of the hotel is 'Gentle Haven'." The thief jumped into the house and reported quickly.

"Is there such a thing?" Kandal was like a lightning strike, his tall body shook, and he almost fell, "It turns out that Donk and Eunice really have a leg!" ”

"Commander, it's too early to make a conclusion, right? When the two are walking, they are far apart, not like a couple. ”

"It's not a couple going to some bullshit 'gentle harbor'!" Kandal burst into tears of sadness, threw himself against the wall, buried his face in the crook of his arm, and slammed his other hand against the wall, bursting with flames from his hand, smashing the wall into a crack in a few strokes, "Miss Eunice, your vision is so bad, I'm not as good as that damn Donk!" ”

The thief approached the head of the regiment and comforted: "Those two really don't look like a couple, you don't have to be so sad, commander." ”

"Really?" Kandal asked, snorting.

"Really." The thief added, "And I think you're a better match for Miss Eunice." ”

"You kid has a vision! In response to your words, I have decided to reward you with 1,000 gold coins and promote you to squad leader. Kandal burst into tears and laughed as if he had been reborn.

When the thief heard that the head of the regiment was so coaxing, he praised him even more vigorously: "Commander, you are handsome and dashing, and you have a good demeanor, Miss Eunice must have secretly promised you, but she can't wipe her face, and she is embarrassed to agree." ”

"Really?"

"Really!"

"Wow wow! You kid is too discerning, so why don't you be the head of the regiment. ”

"This reward is a bit excessive, and I don't dare to say yes......"

Kandal was amused, scratched his jaw, and said, "But I still can't rest assured, maybe that Donk is after Eunice, I need to hear what the two of them are saying." That's it, you lead the way. ”
