Chapter 10 Artificial Architecture

It was a metal wall, and although the wall was rusty, it was still strong, and even if it had been blown up by Mia's magic, it was still intact, and it seemed that it was not so easy to break through.

"Artificial structure?" Shure didn't even bother to obey his orders, and he took a breath of surprise, "There are people here, no, there were people who used to be?"

Of course, the metal wall cannot be naturally generated, especially since there are obvious man-made traces on this wall, and it can only be that someone built the building inside the mountain.

It can be seen that the dwarf's judgment is not wrong, there is indeed a cave here, but it was artificially sealed.

"Shuer, what to do. "Mobuck was a little overwhelmed. It's not difficult to break through the metal wall and enter the building, but with everyone's ability, it can take a little time to do it, but the problem is that the most important thing for everyone now is time, "I didn't expect it to be ......"

"That's a good thing. Shul interrupted Mobuck's self-reproach with a wave of his hand, "You should know what man-made structures mean. ”

"Unknown treasure. The dwarf's eyes lit up immediately, and he said excitedly, "And a lot of gold coins." ”

Indeed, if you can find some artefacts made from materials outside the world of Pavatiga, even if they are shoddy and inferior, they will be favored by collectors and scholars of curiosities, and can sell for a large price.

Therefore, in the eyes of the shadow chaser, man-made architecture means wealth and fame.

"Maka Jalen, here's your job. Tossing aside the dwarf who was dripping with saliva, Shul knocked on the metal wall, "Find a way to find the entrance." ”

"Understood. The halfling finally waited for his chance to perform, and he raised his thumb excitedly, and stuck his head near the cliff without looking back, but the drooling Mobuck withdrew, and the six men formed a double defensive circle facing the perimeter, protecting Macageren inside.

"Dangdang. The halfling's fingers tapped lightly against the metal wall, his ears pressed against the wall, listening carefully to the sound coming back.

This is not a simple knock on the wall, through the reverberation of metal, judge the size of the internal space, judge the thickness of the wall, judge the trend and length of the surrounding wall, and even judge whether there are fatal traps, this is a very professional detection method.

Halflings are believed to possess the most dexterous hands in the world of Pavatiga, and are born thieves and mechanics. And Macajaeren, as a trap expert and mechanical expert, claims that there is no door in the world that can stand in his way, although there is a bragging factor of halfling's racial characteristics, but it also shows his ability.

Thirty seconds later, the halfling who had already entered a state of self-forgetfulness walked along the mountain and walked forward by himself, the corners of Shuer's mouth twitched, and he sighed: "Follow him." ”

"Blow it up here, too. Walking hundreds of meters away, the halfling patted on the stone wall, "I need to explore again." ”

Without waiting for Shuer's command, Mobuck immediately ordered three positions on the stone wall. After the fireball, the stone wall fell off again, and it was still a metal wall inside.

"Sure enough, it's almost there. The halfling's eyes sparkled, and he looked up from the wall and said proudly, "I already smell the door, I am indeed ......"

"Then hurry up, there's not much breath-holding potion left. Shuer was not polite at all, and directly interrupted Macajelen's boasting, "Without the protection of the potion, everyone died at the gate together, and then became a laughing stock together." ”

"Okay, got it. ”

Sadly giving up his plans to boast, the halfling returned to the battle that belonged only to him.

This time, instead of leaning on the wall to listen as he did just now, he took out a bowl-shaped tool from his backpack and buckled it to the wall, then put his ear to the bottom of the bowl, closed his eyes to free his hearing, and relied on his ears to peek into the world behind the metal wall.

"Dangdangdang".

"It's the easiest wall to explore, and it's easy to find the entrance because it's poured in one piece rather than a sheet metal patch. Standing at his post, Macajalen behaved more professionally than anyone else, "Ha, I got you, everyone come with me." ”

"Walking along the stone wall, about a hundred meters or so, there will be a depression, huh? It should be around here, everyone look for it. ”

Not long after walking with the shadow chasers, the halfling suddenly stopped, groping around the mountain rock in confusion, and among the information he had detected, the entrance must be here. However, what he saw was still a bare mountain rock, no different from other locations.

"No, these aren't ordinary rocks. "The same thing, in the eyes of the dwarves, is a different scene, "There was an earthquake here, the entrance should be blocked by rubble, let's blow it up, Mia, the power is a little less, I'm worried about the collapse inside." ”

"Boom", another dull explosion.

Obviously, the dwarves' worries were unnecessary, and the elven mage's magic power was well controlled, and the rubble that stood in the way was successfully blasted, while the surrounding mountain walls were intact.

The smoke cleared, the gravel fell to the ground, and a narrow crack appeared in the rock wall, and the cold and dirty smell overflowed out of the crack, making everyone's skin shiver. Fortunately, everyone is still in a state of breathlessness, otherwise, I am afraid that this old turbidity alone will bring a lot of trouble.

"Very good, Mia, here you come. ”

"Wind. Not even the spell mark needed to be formed, Mia let out a magic character in a low voice, and the wind came.

The wind did not come from Mia's side, but directly from the inside of the chasm, and the wind raged through the crevasse, sweeping away all the foul air in the mountain in an instant.

"In the name of the moon, in the name of the saint. "Shur drew a standard circle on his chest, which was a gesture when praying at the Temple of the Dark Moon, and it was also one of the spellcasting actions," Moonlight Technique. ”

There was no bright light, and Shuer's magic made the space in the crack shrouded in a hazy and dim shimmer of light.

This is the characteristic of the Dark Moon Goddess's moonlight technique, and it is also the characteristic of the Dark Moon itself. It does not shine brightly in the night sky like its sister Lady Diana, the dark moon does not shine, so it cannot be observed with the naked eye, and most people do not even know that there is a dark moon above their heads at night, silently watching the world.

However, for the powerful Shadow Chasers, this level of glimmer was enough for everyone to see everything in the cracks.

As Shul had expected, the crack was what he wanted to see the most.

There were no animals, no plants, only a small amount of moss growing in the corners, and although it was just as hostile, it was the best environment compared to the terrifying pressure from the outside.

"The strategic transfer was successful, the state of combat readiness was lifted, and the state of alert was restored. Shuer's expression remained unchanged, as if he was calmly under control, but in fact, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart that had been hanging was finally half relieved.

"Mobuck, get ready to enter. The probe looked into the crack and briefly estimated the width of the interior, and Shul immediately began to assign tasks, "Moria, Macageren, you follow Mobuck, Miriday, go in with your two horses, one after the other, Sasa, you escort the tail of the guard." ”

"Mia, after you break off with me, prepare to seal the door. ”

"Directly blow up the entrance?" the elemental mage's thinking was always so direct.

"Hmm...... Forget it, the ice wall is closed, and it is safer to leave a back road. After a little hesitation, Shuer still shook his head and rejected Mia's proposal, although blowing up the entrance can avoid future troubles, but no one can guarantee what will happen in the crack, Shuer does not want to retreat by himself.

"Ka, Ohm, Farr. Retreating into the crack, Mia's staff slid lightly across the ground, and as she recited the magic incantation, a thick wall of ice rose from the ground, clinging to the mountain twice and extending upward, instantly closing the entrance, separating the air from the inside and outside.

"In the name of Luna, the lightless moon, call for the guardian of the moon. Shul pressed his hand against the ice wall, and a faint film of light stretched outward from his hand, quickly crawling all over the entire ice wall.

"It's me. Shure stepped back, Mia stepped forward, and a second wall of ice rose, sandwiching the light film in the center.

The Ice Wall resists physical attacks, the Moon Guardian resists energy infiltration, and the three ice walls hold two layers of Moon Guardian, which is enough to ensure safety and security for the duration of the magic effect.

"Safe for the time being, keep up with them. ”

However, Shur was only talking, and as he spoke, his body did not move, and the mace was not lowered, but only his eyes were used to scan the cracks.

Roll your eyes up, first confirm the top of your head, safety, then the sides, safety, and finally confirm the ground, safety.

"Whew, lower the alert level. The other half of his heart could finally be put down, and Shuer felt the dampness behind him, but fortunately it was not seen by others.

"Can you breathe?" Mia didn't plan to drink any more breath-holding potions, although the amount of that thing was small, but the taste was really subtle, and normal creatures should not like this taste.

"Not sure, let Moria judge. "Theoretically, it should be okay, but there are too many cases beyond theory in the adventure, and no amount of caution can be overstated," go, keep up, Macajaren is professional, and in one minute and forty-five seconds, the door should be almost open. ”

In the dim light, the tunnel in the crack of the mountain was not long, and it didn't take long to see the figures of the teammates.

A rusty metal gate sits in the middle of the crack, blocking the path of the Shadow Chaser, and the halfling is lying in front of the gate and is buried in his work. The others gathered around Macajaren on high alert, except for the dwarf Mobuck standing beside the halfling, shield in hand, ready for close protection.

"Haha, I'll just say that the door that can block me Macajalen doesn't exist. In the midst of the cheers, the halfling leaped to his feet, looking up to the sky and laughing, and in front of him, the metal door made a screeching sound and slowly slid open to the sides.

"Whew, squeak, buzz. ”

The sound of air jets, the sound of metal grinding, the sound of machinery turning, theoretically the sound of the door opening.

However, although the cheering halfling did not notice in time, Xiu'er and Lin Jing had already frowned, and it seemed that the voice did not come from the gate, but from the space behind the gate.

"Be careful, there are traps. ”

Shuer's prompt was still a little late, the door opened, and the first thing everyone saw was four wrist-thick metal pipes, compressed high-temperature flames, erupting from the pipes without warning, covering all the space outside the gate.
