CH.31 Labyrinths and Traps

The labyrinth was made of stony, long strips of black boulders, and the passages were two hundred yards wide and five hundred yards high. The bottom of the passage is full of flowing seawater, which comes from the portal and flows into the labyrinth. There was no light source around, it was pitch black, and it could only be illuminated by the light source of the ship itself.

There are two roads to choose from on the opposite side of the passage, forming a typical T-junction, which is only the first turn, and the next road will encounter more turns, and the route is quite complicated.

There is no wind here, and ordinary boats can only drift down the water or paddle here, but special boats can rely on special means to move forward.

The Knight has a special way of forwarding, with two jet canisters at the stern and four mechanical legs made of metal on either side of the hull, which extend to the longest state, just enough to step on the bottom of the tunnel. Jet propulsion combined with mechanical leg steering allows the ship to move freely and unhindered within the labyrinth.

An exploration team sent by the Empire had entered here before, but they had already gone far away, and they couldn't see it, and they didn't know which way it was going. There was only one ship in the passage, the Knight.

The Imperial ships in charge of guarding the entrance did not dare to trespass here without an order, so they did not catch up. But after a while, the ships will most likely catch up.

An Rui looked at the familiar environment around him, and his heart became hot.

The treasure here will be the most precious treasure he has obtained since he was reborn, and it will allow the Overlord Chamber of Commerce to grow rapidly. Expansion becomes a giant. The next time Blade Sea convenes another square table meeting, there will definitely be a place for him as the president.

"It's a dangerous labyrinth, and you can be in danger at any time. Cheer up, listen to my orders, and move forward step by step. Captain, keep the speed at eight knots, reach the end of the passage and turn left. Anrui held his twin swords in his hands and stared at the other side. Give orders to the whole ship.

The captain did as he was told, steering the rudder and controlling the Knight's advance. Two jet barrels in the stern of the ship began to work, spewing out two air streams. The four mechanical legs attached to the sides of the hull also stretched out to the sides and inserted into the water. It's like a mount under a knight's crotch.

The Knight made a splash on the sea. The speed of eight knots is slow at sea, but it is just right in the labyrinth.

It didn't take long for the Knight to reach the end of the passage, and the four mechanical legs were under the control of the captain, stretching in different directions, one of which was the most powerful, kicking the wall, and the hull of the ship turned to the left. Turn into the passage on the left.

This passage was even longer than the previous one, and it was 3,000 yards by sight!

Someone took out the compass. When I looked at it, I saw that the hands were spinning rapidly, and they were not used at all. There is some mysterious force that is interfering with the pointer, and there is no way to distinguish between east and west, north and south. If someone who is not familiar with the terrain breaks in, they will have to get dizzy.

The Knight cautiously sailed to the middle of the passage.

"Adjust your bearings and drive the boat to the far left! There's a trap ahead! An Rui suddenly reminded.

At his alert, the Knight quickly moved to the left, almost tapping to the wall.

Almost everyone looked to the roof above, waiting for the trap to appear. There are still a few layers of defensive enchantment on the periphery of this ship that have not disappeared, ordinary attacks should not pose any threat to this ship, everyone can't figure out why An Rui ordered to dodge, could it be that the power of this trap is so strong that even the defensive enchantment can be broken?

The answer was soon revealed.

The knight had not gone far against the wall, and more than a dozen sharp blades suddenly fell from the roof of the shed on the upper right, where the blades were still as bright as new after hundreds of years of erosion, and the edges were extremely sharp. On the blade of the sword, there were also magic runes flashing, obviously transformed by magical power.

The blades were concentrated in the very center of the passage, and if the Knight had not taken cover to the left, it would have been stabbed.

On the surface, these are just ordinary magic swords, and they don't necessarily have that powerful.

"Is it necessary to be afraid of traps of this magnitude?" Alice was a little unimpressed, and pulled an arrow from her quiver, put it on the bowstring, and shot it at the sharp blade not far away.

Just heard the crisp sound of ding, and the arrow was easily bounced off by the sharp blade, and there was not even a single scratch left on the surface of the blade!

With Alice's strength, it was not a problem to shoot through the metal with an arrow, but it turned out that even the skin of these sharp blades could not be broken, which shows how strong these sharp blades are.

Alice changed color slightly.

"If there is no order from me later, no one can act rashly, and if you mess around here, you will die." Anrui told in a deep voice, lest Alice have more hands and feet.

Alice pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

Everyone looked at the snow-bright blade and initially felt the danger of the Canghai Demon Palace.

The Knight continued on its way to the end of the passage, when it heard a peculiar noise behind it. An Rui turned his head and looked behind him, only to find that a ship of the Empire on which the sun never sets had chased after him. It seems that the defenders have received orders from above.

As long as the sun never sets the empire does not send a strong man of Carlo's level, it will not be able to threaten An Rui's gang, and An Rui is not too worried about the pursuit of the navy. He let out the bee glasses, leaving the little thing above the passage to monitor the Navy's movements. If you're lucky, maybe the ship will be stabbed into a hornet's nest by the sharp blades in the middle of the passage before it can catch up.

The Knight shook off its pursuers and turned into the next passage.

The passage also has two traps, one at the bottom of the water, a metal tentacle capable of entanglement and squeezing the ship, and one on the right side of the wall, with several spinning sharp blades.

The metal tentacles can't be dodged, so they can only be destroyed by diving under the water beforehand, but the blade on the right side can dodge it.

"I'll go down, you slow down and move forward slowly." An Rui commanded, then jumped into the sea and swam forward. He released the Blood Sea Tyrannosaurus Rex, allowing the dragon to release the Blister Guardian, which was placed on top of his head to provide him with the air he needed.

He swam a few hundred yards away, and soon found a dark shadow lurking at the bottom of the ocean, curled up in a ball with a metallic sheen, it was the tentacle. He aimed the tip of his sword at the black shadow, and the Blood Sea Tyrannosaurus next to him also opened its mouth.

Exhale!

Breath of Blood!

Two breaths blasted at the black shadow at the same time, one white and the other red. The breath emits an astonishing amount of heat, and a large amount of seawater is evaporated in an instant.

A loud bang was heard, and two breaths hit the metal tentacles at the same time, and the surrounding sea water was exploded, setting off a high column of waves. The light spread out with a large number of blisters, but the metal tentacles were not too damaged and could still be used.

The metal tentacles were touched, trembling violently, and the tip reached forward like an entrenched snake crawling out of a hole. The tentacle quickly stretched out in the direction where An Rui was, the speed was not very fast, but the strength was amazing. This tentacle can even grind special ships, let alone strangle people.

An Rui didn't expect the blow just now to destroy the metal tentacle, the purpose was just to let the tentacle get up and reveal the flaw as soon as possible. His eyes lit up, and he dodged the metal tentacle's attack, swimming all the way to the root of the metal tentacle.

Metal tentacles have countless joints, each with a gap, which is the most vulnerable part of the whole body.

An Rui aimed at the gap at the base of the tentacle and stabbed it with a sword, the tip of the sword penetrating deep into it, stabbing the important parts inside. The tentacles that were still dancing around just now froze and sank towards the bottom, and only the mechanism at the root was still making the sound of mechanical operation.

Ann Rui achieved his goal and retreated to the ship, and the Knight passed the road unharmed. He breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, and surveyed the passage through his bee glasses.

At this moment, the ship of the Empire on which the sun never sets happened to be in the middle of the passage, and the ship sailed in the middle of the passage, and did not dodge to the sides. Anrui knew there was a trap, but they didn't.

"The time to witness the miracle has come...... An Rui muttered in his heart.

Under the watchful eye of the bee glasses, the ship quickly approached the location of the mechanism, and triggered the magic sensing device of the mechanism, and many sharp blades stabbed at the hull at the same time!

The ship was covered with a protective shield, but in front of these sharp blades, the protective shield was like paper paste, and it was not vulnerable at all. The blade easily pierced through the shield and approached several masts. The navy on the deck was shocked, and several of them immediately resisted, and one of the earth wizards created a strong stone shield to protect the hull of the ship. His spell casting speed was quite fast, and he completed the spell in an instant, holding up the stone giant shield.

This giant shield played a certain defensive role, barely blocking those sharp blades, but this was only temporary, the sharp blades were extremely sharp, easily piercing the giant shield, inch by inch deeper, and the giant shield would penetrate in less than three seconds.

"Hurry up and get the boat out of the way, I can't hold it anymore!" The earth wizard exclaimed.

One of the warriors reacted quickly, swung his sword and cut one of the ropes on the ship, jumped forward with the rope, and then jerked the rope with all his might. The rope was strong enough to withstand the warrior's furious force. Under the tug of the fighters, the threatened ship suddenly accelerated and broke out of the danger zone.

In the next second, the blade pierced the giant shield alive, and several of the sharp blades pierced the stern of the ship, opening several wounds in the stern. The giant shield then fell, hitting the stern of the ship as well, smashing the broken stern to pieces.

The ship narrowly escaped and was not completely destroyed. The people on the ship looked at the sharp blades interspersed with huge shields behind them, and their faces were all terrified.

"This group of navy really has some ability, I don't know how many trap attacks can survive, three or five?" An Rui opened his eyes, and the image in his mind disappeared, he had foreseen the future of this group of naval pursuers. (To be continued......)
