I found a safe tavern and booked a private room, and then I summoned a few humanoid pets to discuss with them. Everyone's opinion is actually about the same, everyone knows that those damn shadow creatures must be on this planet, but for some reason, ordinary people don't seem to know about it, or they know, but I didn't ask the right way.

In the end, Ling's advice to me was to first find a high-level person who could know the core secrets and ask about it, just by contacting low-level personnel, I probably wouldn't get much useful information, after all, there are some things that everyone won't know. After getting the hint, I decided to go back to the female general, and I already knew about her being demoted in the palace by this time. This woman seems to be very beautiful because she is very beautiful, so she is a news figure here, and there are a lot of folk rumors after she was demoted.

Since she's not on an errand in the key area, it's much easier, so I'll dig a hole in the old way. The Pioneer and the Jewel Vine dug in front, and I followed behind. After advancing for about a few kilometers, the Pioneer and Rose Vine suddenly stopped.

"Why did it stop?"

"Master, it looks like you've dug into an underground building."

"Underground buildings?" Puzzled, I walked to the front, and the Pioneer and Rose Vine opened up a little space on either side for me to observe. Our path was blocked by a brick wall, and I walked over to take a closer look at the situation near the lower cave entrance. It seems that the Vine and the Pioneer have already broken through the rammed earth and lime waterproofing layers, and the remaining brick wall is probably the third layer of walls. I knocked the wall, and the stone wall didn't seem to have an echo, and it seemed that there were very thick walls inside. "Can you get around?"

"I don't know." "My tentacles have stretched far around and haven't found a border, this thing is quite large, it may be an underground palace complex. ”

"Palaces?" A wicked smile appeared at the corner of my mouth. "Give me some more space, I'm going to see what's in there."

"Yes." The Vine and the Pioneer immediately began to expand around. The place soon had a huge extra space. Summon the tank out, then have the Rose vine stick its tentacles all over the wall, then have the tank hit the wall with its own forelimbs. No matter how hard things are, there will be vibrations, but I don't have enough strength, and the vibrations generated are not enough to judge the internal structure. Tanks are different. His strength is strong enough, and when he knocks it, it's about the same as a pile driver. The oscillating sensor can determine the internal structure and general environment based on the echoes, and I can also feel the internal situation synchronously because of the mental contact.

Aimed at the center of the wall we had dug out. After a muffled sound, the vibrating receptors on the rose vine's side immediately returned the image produced by the first vibration echo. This layer of the image is still very vague, but this is only the initial wave, and then there will be an echo every time the echo hits a new structural fault, and multiple waveforms are superimposed to obtain a complete structural map.

The image of the first echo only roughly defines the range, and the second beam returns quickly. At this time, the image in my mind can be regarded as the structure of the underground palace. "Good fellow, that's a lot of earth!" The echo shows that although this place is only one-tenth of the area of the palace complex on the ground, it has more than 30 floors, and the actual area is much larger than the ground part.

The third echo also came back a few seconds apart, and this time the waveform changed significantly. The returned simulated image shows the interior of the palace. Because it's a waveform image, there is no color, but you can roughly tell what's inside based on the shape and structure. There are a lot of things in the palace, but there is one place that attracts me in particular. In the waveform I saw a sizable room filled with fragments. This room is almost 2,000 square meters, and the interior is full of these fragments. Because there is no color, it is impossible to see what these pieces are. But the shock wave showed that these things were hard, and that they were mostly regular. What caught my attention even more was that the walls and doors of this room were specially treated, and they were noticeably thicker than the other rooms. There are only three rooms in the entire underground palace that are treated like this, and I believe that it is impossible for such a special room to be filled with garbage, so the identity of these small pieces of rules is about to come out. They should be gold.

There are three specially fortified rooms in the basement of the palace. One of them was a bedroom-type room, presumably a king's room; The other one has a large number of weapons and armor. Ten of the ** is a place like a collection room. And this room is full of such small pieces, and I can't think of anything other than gold that would allow the king to concentrate them in such a room.

The image of soft objects by sonic vibrations is very unclear, but it is not completely absent. By feeling the difference in vibration, I was able to determine the number and location of the people in the underground palace. Probably because this is a reserve palace, there are not many people for the time being. The sound waves showed that there were only a small number of guards and cleaning servants here, and most of them were concentrated near the entrance, after all, no one expected someone to enter through a hole in the ground.

The wall where we are now seems to be the outer wall of some bedroom for servants, and since it is now completely uninhabited, and it is not an important location, there is no one at all. I snapped my fingers back. "Tank, do it with some force."

The tank retreated a little, then slammed into the wall with a thud. The masonry wall couldn't withstand such an impact at all, and it was knocked down in one fell swoop, but there was still a wooden fence inside, no wonder the echo signal just now was so unclear.

Needless to say, the tentacles of the vine inserted themselves into the wood and pulled them all off. Behind the wooden frame is another brick wall. The tank slammed the wall twice with its forelimbs and it was powdered. Minguito got the brick shards out, and the tank hit it two more times before the wall was completely pierced. The inside of this layer of bricks is a layer of wooden planks, probably for moisture-proofing, quite thin, and has just been pierced along with the wall. Retrieving the large pet that had dug the tunnel, I summoned the White Wave and the Darts, and then summoned the Night Moon and Amenes as well. White Wave is a special pet in the Authentic area. The speed of the darts is fast enough, Aimenis is good at camouflage, and the night moon can silently let people go to God, all of which are essential pets for stealing chickens and dogs.

Entering the room through that small hole, Bai Lang had already determined that there were no living people in the nearby area. Otherwise, he would have heard. Anyway, there was no one nearby, so we walked out of the room and into the hallway outside. The previous sound wave had already drawn the map, and I passed it to Bai Lang, who had a better memory. He is particularly good at walking mazes. followed Bai Lang all the way and ran for more than half the distance before slowing down. A place like the Treasury is no ordinary room, one-fifth of the guards in the entire underground palace are concentrated here, and there are many people walking around.

Bai Lang suddenly stopped at a bend in the passage, and he turned back to signal that we were approaching. Then start moving forward carefully. Night Moon swam directly to the top of the wall of the passage, and I followed to the wall, leaning against the wall and waiting for the opportunity to attack. The sound of a few people chatting came from the fork next to the passage, and it sounded like there were quite a few people.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the other party was soon near the corner. The moment the first person walked out of the passage, our side suddenly activated at the same time. Bai Lang jumped out first, and rushed directly to the opposite wall by inertia. Then he ran over the wall and fell behind the group of people in one fell swoop. The soldiers suddenly saw a white shadow flashing past, and their eyes instinctively followed, but as soon as they turned around, they realized that it was a trap. When they turned back, all they saw was a beautiful face and the breathtakingly beautiful eyes on it. The bright silver light flashed, and all the people in the passage were forever frozen in that moment. Nightmoon lowered her goggles and blocked her eyes again, turning around and making an OK gesture to me. There was no sound at all. There was another group of people a few dozen meters away, but they were unaware of it.

I pointed to the front, then to the night moon, then to the right, and then to myself. Then point to the left. Yeyue instantly understood what I meant. Night Moon and Dart each play the two attractors, and I dodge out of that intersection with Night Moon. Before the people on the right could understand what was going on, they were all stoned. The locals on the left only saw the figure in front of them flash, and then felt a chill on their necks. They wanted to shout but couldn't, reached out and touched their necks but felt some hot liquid, and when they brought their hands to their eyes, they saw that it was blood. Knowing what was happening, they couldn't do anything, their eyes getting darker and darker, and then they fell limply. One by one, the heads rolled out. I knocked Shiny Eternity back into my arm, and this one no weapon other than Eternity could do it, because they weren't sharp enough.

It's easy to get rid of the enemies at the intersection and leave the ground. There is a small room in front of it, and there are almost two hundred soldiers in it, this is the only concentration of soldiers in the vicinity, and after killing this place, use a small team to block it, and no one will come in and make trouble. The best way to deal with this kind of concentration of people is to use bombs. But I can't make too much of a noise, it's not good to alarm the people outside. After thinking about it, I decided to use magic.

Ling is summoned, and she will unleash a black hole magic in the room. Although this magic took a long time to prepare, no one here knew we were nearby, so there was no need to worry about time. The magic was completed very smoothly, and the sudden appearance of a black hole in the room completely confused the soldiers who were chatting inside, and due to the strong suction, these people had no way at all. The high-speed reflux of the air flowed back to guide them, and their shouts could not be heard, and they were all sucked back. I summoned the scythe, wrapped his spider silk around my waist, and let the scythe stick stick into the wall to secure myself, and I dragged it out.

With a safety rope and no need to worry about being sucked into a black hole, I swaggered towards the strong men in the room who had grabbed a fixed object or inserted a weapon into the ground. These people are quick to react, and it takes too much time to suck them in by a black hole. I walked over to one of them, who was struggling to hold on to a pillar, his body already sucked sideways, but he hadn't flown out yet. I compared the little dagger to his hand, and he was sweating profusely and looking at me with frightened eyes. In the end, before I could stab him, I couldn't help but let go of my hand and was sucked into the black hole, and everyone else like him was terrified to watch, because they knew that I would do the same to them.

Soon I got rid of most of the people and walked over to the last strongman. This guy relied on a spear stuck into the ground to keep himself in place. I walked over and stopped beside him, and he watched me swallow my saliva, clearly frightened. Under his horrified gaze, I grabbed my spear and pulled it out. He screamed desperately, but I couldn't hear anything, and the sound was blown back into the black hole by the air current.

Maybe because there is a person hanging on it, this gun is still tightly inserted. I simply turned Eternity into a hammer and compared it to his head. I thought it was easier to start, and then compared it to the ground. The ground is still easy to smash, I swung a sledgehammer and smashed it into the ground, and the masonry ground immediately cracked, and the spear company

Flew out with the brick.

Looking at the spear flying out, I was surprised to see that there was no one on it. When I looked down, this guy was actually hanging there holding my feet. The potential of man and earth is really unlimited, and in this environment, he can actually climb up and grab my legs. Look at what he's wearing well, he should be a big official. There is value in use. I laughed and snapped my fingers, and the black hole disappeared instantly, and the guy fell to the ground. Unexpectedly, instead of stopping to catch his breath immediately, he jumped up and jumped to the side wall, where there was actually a knife. I'm really getting more and more interested in this guy. I don't care if it's just brave. That kind of person is an idiot, but I don't like people who are too sleek, because this kind of person is not as good as a brave idiot. But this person is very good, the previous fear shows that he is not stunned, and now he dares to take a knife It means that he is not the kind of villain who tends to be inflammatory, he has integrity. At the same time, there is a fear of death. In this way, people are talents, flesh and blood, know what they can do, and know what they can't do, and the elite should be such people.

As soon as he got the knife, he was ready to rush forward. But he suddenly found that he couldn't move his feet. When he looked down and saw that he had turned to stone from the waist down, he looked up again to see a beautiful woman around my neck leaning behind me and looking at him.

"You're ......!" He struggled again. It turned out that I couldn't move at all, so I simply threw the knife in my hand at me.

Bite. The long knife was blocked by an invisible wall of qi. I have three pieces of magical armor on me, and I'd be an idiot if I could be hurt by a broken knife!

"Yes, you are brave. I appreciate talent, would you like to follow me? ”

"You're dreaming." The other party actually slammed his palm to the ground. With a bang, the room that had been tossed by the black hole was completely unbearable, and a big ditch suddenly cracked on the ground, and he fell into the room below with bricks.

The scythe jumped out from behind and slammed it on the ground, and with a thud we fell with it. The guy was already lying on the ground after falling, but he still couldn't move, and petrification wasn't so easy to recover. I didn't kill him not only because of his character, but when he hugged my leg just now, he was judged by the system to be an attack, so I saw the attribute on the star pupil that this guy actually has two thousand levels, and it is also a rare command-type NPC. People like him are worth more than gems in the game, and it's a blessing to see one.

"Don't waste your efforts. You can't run away. ”

"Hmph, I can crawl even if I crawl." He has a lot of temper.

"So what?" I waved forward, and Nightmoon walked over and stared at his arm, and then the eyepiece flashed. He was surprised to find that his arm was petrified. Although he knew that the cause of the petrification was with us, he didn't see who petrified him, and now he realized that it was the woman's eyes.

"What are you?"

"Something? I'm a relic of the Protoss, and you call me something? Believe it or not, I petrified your eyelids so that you couldn't blink and suffocated you alive? ”

He didn't answer, but looked at me again. "Are you from the Peerless Empire or from the Heavenly Frost Country?"

It's time for me to ask, you're a captive, be honest with me. Now tell me what other mechanisms are in the treasury? I know there's a mezzanine in that wall, it's not like a normal room, and you'd better keep it out of my way, or you'll be miserable. ”

"What if I don't say it?"

"You'll tell." I nodded again to Nightmoon, who immediately flipped him over with one hand, then a little on his chest. He immediately began to cough violently, and Nightmoon stood up and waited for him to cough. I saw that he was coughing more and more on the ground, and finally his face was purple. I nodded again, and Yeyue crouched down and tapped it again on his chest. The coughing immediately stopped, but it looked like he was almost finished with the toss.

What do you think? Does it feel like your chest is on fire? Want to talk about it now? If you don't cooperate, the next time you will be stricter until you cough up your lungs. ”

"You're a demon."

"Yes, I know. You're not the first person to say that. The previous ones all died quite miserably. I pushed back my mask and looked at him with a smile. Forget about you, my specialty is undead creature manipulation, even if you die, you have to continue to work for me, and you will never want to stop in your life. ”

"Necromancy?"

"That's what you call the dead." Forget jì The names of the undead on their planet are different!

"You ......!"

"Stop scolding. Save some strength and cough a little more! Now tell me where the mechanism in my room is. ”

He looked at me, then at the beautiful monster with the head of a snake next to him, and finally gave in. "On the door shaft. When entering, do not open both doors together, open the right door panel first, then open the left half. After that, close the right door panel, take something out and close the left half of the door, if the order is wrong, the jack gate behind the door will fall, and then pour acid water into it. Neither gold nor jewelry is afraid of acid, but intruders are sure to be dissolved. ”

"It's poisonous. But it doesn't seem to be of much use to me. Is there anything else? ”

"The sour water mechanism is connected to the alarm. If that doesn't work, you can then manually drive the steel fork system to thread everyone in the room into a skewer. Those gold and jewels are

Placed in a specific position, the steel fork will not hurt the jewelry when it shuttles, but there will definitely be nowhere for the people inside to hide. ”

"Is that all there are to you?"

He said very angrily: "It won't be useful for such an immortal person to install any more mechanisms, anyway, after the forward gate is lowered, it will not be able to open the ground from the inside, and it will be closed for ten days and half a month to starve to death to the assassins inside." If you dare to steal the treasury, let him starve to death with gold! ”

“ok。 I take your word for it. I turned to the scythe and said, "Take him and he, and we'll go to the treasury." There are only four guards in front, and the only exit is on our side, not afraid of them running away. ”

"I advise you not to think too simply." He said proudly, "Those four guards are not ordinary people. ”

"I know. It's just four puppets, no matter how strong you are, what can you do? The brainless puppet is better than a puppy. ”

We took him to the gate of the treasury very quickly. You don't really need to use any tactics to deal with the puppets. The specialty of this guild is puppet making, and it can be said that it understands puppets too thoroughly. This kind of tin pimple is very easy to deal with. Let them follow behind. And from the phoenix dragon space, he turned out four high-level puppets made by the guild, and then sealed the guy's mouth, and we walked to the treasure house gate together.

When the four puppets saw me, they immediately turned to look at me, and then lined up in front of the passage to face me. A puppet spoke: "The vault is heavy, it is forbidden to approach. Report the interest. ”

One of the puppets came out. "We are the commander of the new type of guardians, the four of you have been eliminated, now hand over the core, and we will send you back to transform."

"Yes, Your Excellency." The four puppets saluted together, and then opened the lid on their chests. The commander who was carrying the scythe shook his head desperately, but to no avail, the puppet didn't even look at him, just took out his core, and then stopped together.

Even without the core, it is equivalent to a pile of scrap metal, and the guard commander was put down by me, and he looked at these puppets in amazement, desperately trying to say something. I removed the muzzle from his mouth, and he immediately cried out, "How did you do that?" Why are they so obedient? They'll probably be able to check the password! ”

"Passwords are things that correspond to human use. In the memory of the puppet, the puppet itself does not lie, and I asked my puppet to falsely transmit this command, and they will naturally think it is true, so I don't need any password. I also have a lot of puppets in my power, and I've studied this thing thoroughly. ”

"Humph! It actually made you take advantage of the loophole. ”

I ignored him, first erased the magic inscription on the core, and then took out the design drawing of the guild, and found the corresponding operation magic array on it and printed it directly on the core. After a little input of mana, it was stuffed back into the puppet's body, and the four puppets immediately resumed their actions. The captured commander was still on the move at first. But when he saw the puppets saluting me, he was completely stupid.

"Just take care of the officer, waiting for your order." The puppet said seriously.

I nodded. "Watching here, if anyone else comes here, they will be killed, and no one can be let go."

"Order confirmed." The four puppets are back at the door, but they're mine now.

Walk to the gate. I pushed open the door in the order the commander had spoken, and the room immediately flashed with a bright light. The huge warehouse was neatly arranged with strange shelves, the one on the left was full of gold, and the right was full of all kinds of precious stones.

"Haha. This is a fortune. I rushed in excitedly. This room is not a small amount of stuff, and it will take a lot of time to move back. Nightmoon and the others followed, but the moment the scythe at the back came in, the captive actually rolled off the scythe and rolled out the door. We were just about to chase. But a heavy gate suddenly fell from the top of the gate, sealing the door. We only heard a bang from behind, and four metal pipes suddenly popped out of the four corners of the roof, and then four huge nozzles began to pour water into the room frantically at the same time. The yellow-green liquid wasn't a good thing at first glance, and they had a pungent sour smell that was more pungent than glacial acetic acid. "All back." I opened the phoenix dragon space and shouted to the demon pets.

"What are you going to do?" Yeyue asked me.

"Let the frost and snow come out. She should be able to handle these things. ”

"Understood."

At the same time as everyone dodged and jumped into the phoenix space, Frost and Snow also jumped out, and I had to climb onto the shelf. The liquid on the ground was already more than a foot deep, and it was still rising at a terrifying rate. As soon as Frost Snow came out, she immediately covered her nose. "Oh my God! What does it smell like? ”

"Forget the taste, it's a strong acid. Freeze those four nozzles for me right away. ”

"Yes." Frost and Snow snapped her fingers, and a white ring of ice rippled out from beneath her feet, and the water instantly froze. It quickly extended to the lower water column, and finally froze the four water outlets. No new liquid was flowing into the room due to the frozen ice blocking the water outlet, but the liquid that had been poured in a moment was already a meter deep. If it weren't for the frost and snow's quick movements, it would have taken another minute or two for the room to be completely filled.

The Phoenix Dragon Space hasn't closed yet. Night Moon and Amenes, who had just dodged in, ran out again. The frozen ground acid was no longer lethal, and they just stood directly on the ice.

Yeyue looked at the door and said: Really, I was deceived!

Aimenis said: "He did say that there was a strong sour water before, but I didn't expect him to activate this mechanism anyway. But could the steel piercing he said be true? ”

Before Amenes could finish speaking, there was a sudden click of small holes opening in the walls around him, and then a sharp spear head protruding from each hole. Frost Snow looked around and said, "Amenes, you're really a crow's mouth!" ”

Yeyue said: "If you don't mind, you'd better hurry up and find a way, I don't want to turn into a meat skewer." ”

"Lingling, come out and help." I called Lingling out and pointed to the wall. "One person, cut off the head of the gun."

"Understood."

Lingling's holy sword and my eternity were extremely sharp weapons, and the two of us jumped to the edge of a wall, and then swept all the way down the wall, and the sticking spears fell to the ground with a thud. Almost as soon as we finished sharpening, the barrel suddenly started to stretch out, and then we were both pushed back against the barrel and finally hit the shelf and got stuck there. But because these guns didn't have a gun head, they couldn't stab anyone at all, and we were all stuck there, and we just couldn't move on the shelves.

It's easy to do without putting your life in danger. We used our weapons to cut off the barrel of the gun that was on top of our body again, and then cut off the back half of the bullet as well, so that the spear was no threat to us. Cutting off all the other guns in the same way, the spears in the room are completely useless.

I smiled and looked at the jewels and gold in the room. "Hehe, the mechanism is done, it's harvest time. Carry forward our traditions, and don't let go of any of them. ”

I've always been robbing a nobody, and now that I'm in, there's no reason why I'll have a few left. We've dug up all the jewels that were frozen under the acid, and they can't be wasted anyway. I took this time to roughly check what I had gained. The most of the stuff here is gold, which accounts for almost eighty percent of the items harvested, but considering that the price of gold in the game is not as high as it is in reality, this is not a big deal. The real value is all those jewels. There are so many types of gems here that almost cover all common gem types, and there are more than a dozen varieties that have never been seen before, I don't know if I don't know them, or if there are no such gems on the earth, anyway, they should be good things that can be placed in this room.

In addition to ordinary gemstones, a small amount of alchemical materials are also stored here. These are no ordinary stalls, as the materials found in the vaults are all extremely rare and super-valuable, and in terms of market value alone, they are worth more than all the gold combined. In addition, I also found a lot of red-veined magic crystals in it, which means I can build a few more puppets.

We were desperately pouring things into the phoenix dragon space, but Yeyue suddenly called out to me: "Master, come here." ”

I turned my head and saw Yeyue leaning on a wall, banging, not knowing what she was doing. "What's the matter?"

The wall seemed to be hollow, and there was something in it. ”

"Something? I'll take a look. "Leaned over and knocked, and the sound of the wall was really different. I called Frost Snow over and asked her to freeze the walls, and I roasted them over the fire. With a thud, the wall exploded on its own, revealing a hexagonal metal panel with a magic circle on it and a large number of runes on it.

What is it? Yeyue went up and knocked: "Master, listen, there is a ticking sound inside!" ”

"Tick-tock sound? It's not going to be a ticking time bomb, is it? ”

"That's not for sure." Frost Snow walked up and pushed the two of us away. "Let me freeze it first, I don't want to bury it if it's a bomb."

Aimenis immediately said, "Probably not, right?" How did the people who made this place calculate that we would break into it today? A time bomb is out of the question. ”

Frost Snow immediately asked, "What if this bomb was activated on the premise that the first two mechanisms were triggered?" After the first two traps are triggered, the bomb will activate itself, but it will take a while for it to explode. If it's your own people, you'll know to close it, and if it's an intruder, then ......! ”

"Whatever it is, just open it and see." Lingling went up and inserted a sword into the wall, and then pried it hard, and the metal panel was pried out of a corner. I just went up and helped pull this thing out. When I took it out, I found that it was a metal box, with a regular hexagonal front and a thickness of about 40 centimeters.

Lingling inserted the sword into the gap in the lid of the box again, pried it upward, and then the lid popped out by itself. Some yellowish liquid squirted out along with the lid, and we all got caught in it. Frost and Snow nervously quickly wiped it, and the result was that the area became larger and larger the more it was rubbed.

I stopped her. "Don't be afraid, it's just lubricants."

After listening to my words, everyone took some of the things on their clothes and put them in front of their noses and smelled them. Yeyue nodded: "It's a lubricating oil made from fish oil, and it still has the smell of dragon grass in it, it seems to be a pretty old thing." ”

"Look, everybody." Amenes suddenly pointed to the inside of the box for me to see. Everyone was frightened by the liquid spilled out of it just now, and they didn't pay attention to the contents of the box, and now they were all stupid.
