In the deep pit, a thick darkness enveloped all the qiē, as if swallowing up all the sounds, making the surroundings completely dark, dull, and fall into a deathly silence.

02020202 at this moment, the sound of a rope suddenly resounded, and in the dark mine pit, a landing plane fell from the sky, sliding down the ropeway all the way down, and then, dense screeching sounds sounded one after another, and a large number of adventurers quickly fell into the darkness below with the landing plane.

02020202 couldn't see the faces of these adventurers clearly in the darkness, but it was clear that they were all tribal races, and on their chests, they wore the badge of the Dark Awakening Guild.

02020202 this expedition was an order from Savis of the Silver Angel Guild to the Dark Awakening Guild, and as for the command system of his Silver Angel Guild, it was completely paralyzed.

02020202 Rylit has not yet stepped down, but Savis has completely disobeyed his orders, and he has formed a temporary strategic alliance with the Dark Awakening Guild, and Elegy has indeed betrayed him, but according to the information provided by Elegy before, he has actually roughly locked this area.

02020202 problem is that he doesn't have a token and can't open the entrance.

02020202 Cerves had put the matter aside for the time being, but soon he received a report that Vivien and Artoria of the Tower of Twilight had arrived in the city of neutral and orderly commerce, and then followed the two people into the teleportation array, and after that, the four people disappeared completely.

Out of caution, 02020202 Saves immediately let people ambush in this vicinity, he knew very well that Ashur's perception spells were very powerful, and most of them chose places that were far away but had a good view, staring at anyone who dared to approach this vicinity all the way.

02020202 So when Asher and the others first appeared, they immediately locked on to the target.

02020202 also out of caution, Saves ordered the adventurers to hide in the distance and wait for Ashur and the others to enter the pit before waiting for an opportunity to follow. Some hunters used the eagle eye technique to gain insight into the whole process of opening the elegy, which made them suddenly realize.

02020202 before, in order to prepare for the treasure hunt, the Silver Angel Guild collected a lot of props and materials related to the Brotherhood of Defia, some of which were not mythical, but they could still be used as tokens to open the door.

02020202 his mentality is actually very simple, since he can't get it. It is also impossible to let Asher get it lightly, and he wants to interfere with Ashur's actions.

02020202 these newcomers were not as powerful as Ashur and the others, and they did not have first-hand information, they unexpectedly stimulated the cavemen with their light, and after hanging up dozens of people, they each jumped into the elevator and fled as fast as they could.

02020202 "Damn, if it weren't for that elegy, we wouldn't have to run around in such a confused way." An orc warrior sitting in the landing plane grumbled indignantly. There is not even a platform to settle on in this place, how are we going to fight? ”

02020202 "This pit is not simple. The level of the monsters is far higher than that of the monsters in the Akaclyde Mountains outside, so let's be careful and talk less. A mage looked around vigilantly, searching for monsters in ambush.

02020202 there were probably more than 200 people with them. When chaos and fighting broke out at the entrance, some of them retreated, and about fifty people died, and the remaining sixty or so legendary masters escaped by sliding. They were all stern as well, and the level of the monsters here was obviously very unusual.

02020202 in the darkness, more than sixty people slid swiftly downward......

02020202 mage still looked around vigilantly. There was not even one person who was probing and scouting, but when more than sixty people slashed through the air one after another, falling downward, no one noticed, and not far from them, there was an arcane mage who was invisible.

02020202 is Asher.

02020202 Yashu used the flying technique to levitate in mid-air, blessed himself with invisibility, watching these uninvited guests go all the way down, the night vision effect of the arcane vision also made Ashur see the guild medals on their chests clearly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but grin a playful smile.

02020202 these adventurers must have come to deal with him, but they didn't know much about the situation inside, and it just so happened that Asher was worried about the unknown danger below, and now that these people went down to explore the way and test the water, he was much more relieved.

02020202 waited for about ten minutes until Artoria was freed from his weakened state, Ashur turned and flew back into the mine, and said to his two teammates, "They've been down for a long time, and we have to hurry, otherwise they may really find the location of the treasure and key before we do." ”

02020202 Artoria stood up from the ground, put the sword and shield back on his back, and nodded to Asher to signal that he was ready, and Asher reached out and took out two pairs of silver gloves from his inventory and handed them to Vivien and Artoria.

02020202 "This is what I got from Nanalia before I left. Asher explained, "Epic Thursilver grappling hook gloves, you two can't fly, the sound of those lifts and the targets are too noticeable, so you have to climb down." ”

02020202 Ashur spoke, both of them had already equipped their fist gloves in their hands.

02020202 the three of them left the mine, Asher still used the flying technique to fly down, and Vivien and Artoria climbed all the way down the rock wall, which is not difficult for epic masters, plus the epic equipment bonus, the speed of the two is not slow.

02020202 "Isn't there a bottom in this pit?" After climbing down for a while, Vivien lowered her head to look at the bottomless abyss that was still pitch black under her feet, and couldn't help but ask, "The mine has been down for a long time before we arrived, and now we have climbed for so long, and there is still no sign of bottoming out." ”

02020202 "I don't know, but the dark awakened people and elegy before have come down, and we have to keep up, and besides, one of them is ready to use us, and the other is to intercept us, but we are at the end, and the situation is already good." Asher teased with a smile.

02020202" wait, that's a little wrong. ”

02020202 just as Asher was about to continue flying downward, Artoria suddenly stopped him and Vivien.

02020202 both of them stopped at the same time, looking at the rock wall that Artoria was clinging to.

02020202 Artoria didn't speak again, but frowned, showing a slightly puzzled look, she plunged her left hand deep into the rock wall, waved her right hand into a fist, raised her body sideways, and smashed the rock wall in front of her fiercely!

02020202 "Bang! ”

02020202 a piercing and violent popping sound. Artoria's fist slammed into the rock wall like a cannonball, and the epic warrior's massive force spread out in an instant, and the rock wall instantly burst into dense cracks, spreading all the way in all directions, and Artoria withdrew his hand like lightning.

02020202 "It's empty." He looked at the hole punched by his fist and was slightly stunned.

02020202 Yashu approached and carefully observed the rift around him, and couldn't help but realize something, he had a lot of combat experience. Normally, Artoria would not have been destructive enough to cause nearly enough damage to collapse the rock wall at such a depth underground, but now it seems that the fragmentation is far beyond calculation.

02020202" continued to smash in. Asher quickly retreated, levitating in mid-air and raising his hands as he began to condense spells.

02020202 magic in the first line! Arcane Impact!

02020202 in the silent darkness, a sharp blue light flickered, and in an instant it pulled a shrill sonic boom. Piercing the rock wall fiercely, at the same time, Artoria's fist again also carried a surge of great force, smashing the stone wall with a bang!

02020202 Ashur could clearly feel a slight tremor from the rock walls around him. In front of him, a piercing cracking sound erupted continuously, and countless rubbles fell downward, and cracks broke open one after another. Artoria waved his hand to pick up the rubble, revealing a large hole that could hold several people to pass through guò.

02020202 "This is a space carved out by hand, at such a depth in the ground. How so? Artoria said a little strangely, "Shall we go in?" ”

02020202 "I'll go in first, you wait for my news." Asher said to Vivien and Artoria.

02020202 he will be Cardolin. The Guardian's Staff of Myth was carried on his back, and he took out the Dragon's Call as a weapon of self-defense, and after carefully confirming that there was no movement in the cave, he flew in first......

02020202 Ashur had just landed, and a rotten smell suddenly hit his face, Ashur raised his head on the ground, opened the dancing light technique to illuminate the dark secret room, he looked around and confirmed that there were no monsters or adventurers around.

02020202 it was a small chamber, and in this narrow space, filled with the smell of decay, there was a closed iron door on the wall, and on the wall next to the iron door, leaning on a skeleton, dressed in tattered robes from an unknown number of years ago, holding a dusty orb in its hands.

02020202 Yashu turned his head to look around, and after repeatedly making sure that no one else was there, he turned around and beckoned his teammates to come in first, he felt that he had found the right way.

02020202 when Vivien and Artoria also entered the chamber, they were both stunned, and Vivien looked at the door in the wall of the chamber and then looked back at the hole they had entered.

02020202 "This secret room is not completely sealed, it seems that I opened a door by mistake." Artoria also looked at the iron gate and laughed.

02020202 "No, it's sealed. Asher stepped forward and tugged at the iron door.

02020202 iron door did not move, it was obviously locked, and after an unknown number of years, the lock cylinder had not yet rotted, obviously it was not an ordinary iron door lock, Asher temporarily gave up opening the iron door, and instead squatted down and observed the skeleton leaning against the wall.

02020202"This is the skeleton of a human being. Asher looked closely, and was embarrassed to come to such a lame conclusion.

02020202 Yashu is not a professional explorer like Bronze Boots after all, he has studied the history of Kadolin, but he can also recognize the race of this person, as for identifying the age and identity from his clothes, he also has no genealogy.

02020202 There was nothing left on the skeleton except the dusty orb.

02020202 Ashur picked up the orb and dusted it off, it was a spell crystal ball that had lost its magical power, Ashur fiddled with it for a while, trying to inject magic power, but there was no response, and he just threw it aside.

02020202 Vivian and Artoria stood side by side, the former looked indifferent, the latter looked embarrassed, they didn't say a word, they didn't understand these things, they could only watch Asher fiddle.

02020202 "Maybe we should bring a big traveler." Asher finally smiled wryly and gave up on solving the mystery on his own.

02020202 "Let's see where the outside leads first, and maybe we'll know." Vivien pinched her chin and groaned.

02020202 Yashu nodded, got up and walked to the door, and performed several lock-picking techniques on the sealed iron door, but the iron door did not move at all, Yashu frowned, and blessed himself with the Great Power Technique, which directly opened the iron door entirely.

02020202 Ashur walked softly. Walking into the darkness ahead, he didn't dare to turn on the light dance technique this time, but turned on the arcane vision and recognized a qiē in the darkness.

02020202 it was a pitch-black hallway, with long-burned oil lamps hanging on the walls around it, and at the same time, Asher saw countless identical iron doors, which seemed to be secret rooms.

02020202"The secret room I just discovered is No. 21, and there are so many of them here, it seems to be a place similar to the miners' rest area. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with treasures. Asher pondered silently.

02020202 he was about to turn back to his two teammates, this time in vain, and then go back and continue to climb down, but just as he turned around, Ashur's gaze suddenly swept across the wall with the arcane vision turned on, and suddenly froze.

02020202 in the corner of the wall, there was an inconspicuous emblem that might not have been noticed if it weren't for the one Asher had just seen in the Brass Boots.

02020202 the mark of the Syndicate!

02020202 Syndicate is a group of thieves. The Brotherhood of Defia is a large bandit gang, and it is unlikely that either side will mine the veins themselves, so the buildings here must not have been built by them, but they have their mark.

02020202 "Vivien." Altoria, we're going to search all these rooms separately, there's a problem here. ”

02020202 Asher said and immediately jumped into action, Vivien and Artoria realized what Ashur had discovered. Hurriedly started to search, and the three epic masters were almost ready to act boldly in this place, and they split up to pry open the doors of these rooms one by one. Then walk in and search to see if there's anything worth noting.

02020202 Ashur also kept their senses open at all times, in case of a sneak attack by the syndicate thieves and elegy who had just disappeared, no matter which one it was, it would not be a good thing if they were caught off guard.

02020202 Ashur searched these rooms all the way, starting from the 21st of the secret room to the 31st, and found nothing noteworthy, but there were unidentified skeletons in these rooms, and there were no clues on them, Ashur guessed that it was the miner who died here, but none of this mattered.

02020202 what he needs is physical objects, clues, not speculation.

Before 02020202 came, Asher thought that the treasures of the Brotherhood of Difia, perhaps some of them were guarded by low-level treasure sites, and most of the treasures were unguarded and could be taken away as long as they were found.

02020202 but the communication with the Bronze Boots led Asher to discover that the Defia Brotherhood was still hostile to the Syndicate Thieves, and he had no time to take care of the details, but he speculated that part of the treasure may have been occupied by the Syndicate, so the decaying Defia Thieves were unable to and could not retrieve the treasures.

02020202 That's why Defia's great wealth is scattered around the world, but their own members don't take it.

This was confirmed 02020202 later appeared with syndicate thieves who attacked Altoria.

02020202 So Asher has also completely changed his mentality, and he has to be more careful.

02020202 opened a room again, and Asher first confirmed that there was no threat, and then was about to enter and search, when suddenly Vivien's voice came from the communication crystal.

02020202 "I've found something in room 11, you guys come and have a look." ”

02020202 Ashur heard the words and exited the secret room where he was, and hurriedly walked in the direction of the 11th secret room, when Ashur arrived, Vivian and Artoria were already inside, and when Ashur came in, Vivian handed something in his hand to Asher.

02020202 "Look, this is going to be some kind of diary, biography or something." ”

02020202 Yaxiu took it and held it in his hand, and a rough touch suddenly came into his palm. 0202

02020202 Asher opened the thick book in his hand in the dark, Vivien had dusted it, but the handwriting was still very blurry, Asher recognized the type of text on it, and recorded it in the language he mastered, which was the ancient lingua franca, but could not recognize the content well.

02020202 is not a diary, it's a ledger, a checklist or something like that. Asher frowned. I couldn't read any other words. ”

02020202" list? Vivien was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I have a guess, I have read in the information about the Brotherhood of Defia, because of the huge demand of the war during the Scourge of the Dead, so all places are increasing efforts to mine veins, pits, especially some rare ore veins, those ores that have been mined are huge treasures, so there are many thief organizations are fighting this idea. ”

02020202 "Could it be that the treasures here are not hidden in the equipment, props and blueprints we imagined, but a large number of materials?" ”

02020202 Vivian's words of hesitation made Asher froze—

The fifth update can continue
