007 Awakening (M)
"That's it! It's done! Excited voices came and went through the tunnel.
Ryan and Bode happily punched each other. As an alchemist, Bode's physical strength is certainly not as strong as Ryan's, and he grinned in pain, but he was still very happy. After more than three months of hard work, it is finally about to pay off.
In front of the hewn metal hole, there was a black void. Ryan took a luminous crystal from behind and threw it forward with all his might. The light source of this luminescent crystal is not very bright, and when thrown into the empty darkness, the light appears so small.
The opening of the hole could only accommodate two people side by side, and Ryan and Bode stood at the edge of the hole, watching the small light source fall downward, and fall, as if it had been a long time, the crystal finally fell to the ground, making a crisp sound, and shattered into several pieces. Immediately after, the voice-activated shadowless lights in the basement lit up, and the sudden soft light made the eyes of the two people who were accustomed to the darkness sting, and they thought it was some kind of attack, screamed in horror, and crawled back with their feelings.
After more than ten seconds, the eyes of the two of them were much more comfortable, and they stood up while wiping their tears, and they were embarrassed to see the subordinates around them who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. Ryan put on the face of the regiment leader: "Whoever dares to laugh, I will deduct half of his remuneration." ”
The two dozen or so men around immediately put on a solemn face as if they were facing a great enemy.
"That's pretty much it." Ryan snorted and led the way to the edge of the cave again, and Rose followed him, clutching chuckles.
Ryan and Bode stood at the edge of the cave, now they were accustomed to the light of the shadowless lamp, the hole they were standing on, about two meters above the basement floor, and as far as the eye could see, there were many glass troughs, and a clean and beautiful glass floor that had not changed for 10,000 years.
"The sun god is eternal, my God, this mausoleum is still alive." Ryan stood in the shadow of the hole in the metal wall, and stretched out his hands, letting the light of the shadowless lamp shine on his palm: "The light like the sun, but without any temperature, this should be the legendary holy light, Bode, you said that if we live here for a long time, will we live for four or five hundred years like the servants of the sun god?" ”
Bode smiled: "If you really dare to live here, the souls of the ancient ancestors will awaken, slowly occupy your body, and destroy your soul. Do you think you can compare to an ancient ancestor who was proficient in all kinds of magic in terms of willpower? ”
Ryan shrugged, "I'm just kidding. Next, it's up to you, Rose. ”
Both Bode and Ryan leaned on their sides at the same time, each with their backs to the wall, leaving a small space for Rose to squeeze in. She looked ahead, took out a finger-sized green crystal from her pocket, and stabbed the sharp tip at her left arm, and the bright red blood flowed into the entity's crystal, covering the green, and the whole crystal exuded a demonic red luster.
Rose's face turned a little pale from the pain, she breathed a sigh of relief, moved her fingers, and then lifted her left hand. A pale green light radiated from her palm and hit the floor of the glass building materials. She carefully controlled the light to sweep every part of the basement where she could see, and after half an hour, she put her fingers on her palms, cut off the green beam, and said breathlessly: "I haven't found any traps for the time being, and the places I can't shine on are not clear." ”
"Good, good!" Ryan picked up Rose and jumped down first. The distance of two meters is not a height at all for mercenaries like them, and even the alchemist, who is known for his weak body, does not feel any difficulty in the height of about two meters.
The mercenaries jumped down one by one, and Ryan turned to them and said softly, "Settle down, don't break the magic crystal on the ground, a magic crystal the size of a fingernail is worth more than the life of you bastards." ”
A group of men laughed, not only did they not get angry, but they were so happy, more valuable than their lives, which is a good thing. The more valuable it is, the more money they will get afterwards, and it's not for money to work hard as a mercenary. Those who were active asked: "Commander, after this is completed, we have money, can we go home and enjoy happiness, and you and Deputy Head Rose should also do it......"...,
Although Rose smiled generously, a discerning person could still see a shy expression on her face.
Ryan smiled, "Of course, of course. ”
But the alchemist Bode smiled: "Your Excellency Lane, I advise you not to think about getting married in the last year or two. There is a strange saying in our hometown that if the territory and dignity of the deceased are offended, they will turn into evil spirits, take away the love of the prisoner's partner, and make them turn against each other and become strangers. So you'd better not get married yet, and wait for two or three more years until the curse is gone. ”
Ryan smiled and said, "Then there is such a saying, the people in your hometown really love to joke. ”
Bode shrugged his shoulders and said, "I also know that this is ridiculous, but there should always be a reason for the words handed down by the ancestors." However, the situation may be different in each place, Lord Ryan, you are from the Kingdom of Kate, maybe there will not be such a situation. ”
"Of course not, I've never heard such a statement or rumor in my hometown." "I've already made a deal with Rose, and after we get the wealth we deserve, we'll divide the money, and Rose and I will go back to our hometown, buy a piece of land, build a manor, and get married," Bode said. When the time comes, everyone will come to our wedding. ”
Bode patted the other party's left shoulder: "Then congratulations to the two of you." ”
Ryan was about to say thanks, but the active mercenary from before shouted again: "Commander, now is not the time to show off your relationship with the deputy commander, tell us what to do, I can't wait to empty the things here, everything is money." ”
"Everyone dispersed, and when they saw something they hadn't seen before, or something of value, they moved out. In addition, when we see the eternal bed of the ancient ancestors, bypass them, and do not touch him, we have promised His Excellency James Bon, and we must do it. After Lane finished shouting this, he turned to Bode and said, "The division of the magic crystal will be handed over to your mercenary group." ”
"No problem." Bode sighed: "Such a well-preserved cemetery, so many magic crystals, it's a pity that our crystal solution is not enough, otherwise swallow them all, maybe we can buy a small kingdom." ”
Ryan smiled: "Be content, use up all the potions of your mercenary group, and exchange the magic crystals you moved away for money, even if there are only three copies, it is enough for you to raise a large manor and use it for hundreds of years." ”
"People are greedy." Bode shook his head and sighed, and with his men, holding pots and jars, began to disassemble the building materials and glass on the ground. They first laid a cone-shaped metal pipe on the glass, then poured a pale white liquid into the funnel, and at the same time, they began to use the metal pipe to slowly scratch the glass, and the liquid flowed out of the pinhole in the most part of the tube, slowly corroding the building material glass on the ground.
Dismantling ancient magic crystals with crystal solutions is a hard job that tests patience. Bo Dezhi said that this kind of magic era is the most ordinary building material crystal, but in the current era, it is the best shield. Lightweight, resistant to blows, fire, and terrifying resistance to the sorcerer's elemental power, any fighter is proud to have a magic crystal shield. Even the sorcerers love and hate the magic crystal shield. Sorcerers hate the crystal shield that nullifies their abilities, but in turn, it protects themselves from other sorcerers.
Rose said to Ryan, "I'll go somewhere else and see if there are any traps." ”
Ryan nodded, and with the other mercenaries, took a look around. This is the basement research facility for the new humans, and since it's a medical facility, most of everything is white. This is very much in line with the aesthetic concept of this group, in which white is the most noble color, and only the royal family can use it in large quantities. The area they entered was the nursery room, where the glass on the floor was made of milky white color for the sake of beauty.
"This should be the mausoleum of the royal family members in ancient times, it is too luxurious. White magic crystals everywhere. And the Holy Light Magic Array on my head, it's amazing, I can't even see my own shadow, and sure enough, under the Holy Light, there is no darkness that can exist. ”
"What are these animals in the tubes? Never seen before. ”
"Of course you haven't, and you're not from antiquity. What do they do with these animals in crystal tubes? ”…,
"It should be a funeral. There was no war in the era of ancient magic, I heard that they were very kind, it seems that this rumor should be true, even if the royal family died, the burial goods were a large number of animals, and I didn't see a person to accompany the burial. ”
"Ah, I wish I lived in those days."
The new humans have always been very serious about their work, and the sealing products they produce claim to be absolutely sealed, but in fact they are. Even after 10,000 years, the preservatives in the cultivation tank have not volatilized at all.
Just as a group of natives were shouting and guessing at the animals in the breeding tank, Rose's voice came from ahead: "Ryan, come here, there's something strange in this place." ”
Ryan and a few mercenaries hurried over and found a king-sized crystal slot, and Rose stood in front of it, a look of surprise on her face.
As soon as Ryan approached the king-sized crystal tank, he felt that the temperature of the air seemed to drop a lot, and when he got closer, he found that the surface of the crystal tank was covered with frost, he stretched out his hand and wiped off the ice ballast on the surface, and found that the liquid in the crystal was frozen, and there was a vague figure inside, judging from the outline, it should be a woman with long hair.
"The temperature in other places is normal, why is it so cold here." Ryan sighed and came out: "What is the identity of the woman in this?" ”
Rose shook her head: "I don't know what to do, but ......" She Zhang Hao's left hand, the green light in the palm of her hand shone on the cultivation trough, and instantly turned red like bright red.
"Dangerous, extremely dangerous." Rose trembled and said, "With such a color, the woman in this glass trough is definitely a powerhouse at the servant level of the sun god." ”
"Extremely dangerous?" Could it be that this woman is still alive! Ryan gasped, he turned back to the way he came, and kicked the person who spoke the loudest, and then held back his voice, and said viciously: "Now the situation has changed, if anyone doesn't want to die, shut up Lao Tzu." ”……,
