Chapter 14: The Ruins of the Gods
Picking up the bronze key from the ground, Xiao Jun used his newly learned prop identification technique on it.
And then...... No response.
The first identification was a clear failure.
The higher the level of the prop, the more difficult it is to identify, and he was not discouraged at all and began the second appraisal.
Without any surprises, it failed again.
The third time, failure!
Fourth, fail!
Fifth, fail!
......
The one hundred and fifth time, failure!
......
The two hundred and thirteenth time, failure!
......
The task of defeating the goblins has been completed, and on the way back to the Adventurer's Guild between the two, Xiao Bai has failed to identify more than 400 times, until he is about to reach the center of the royal city, when he sees a light curtain pop out.
Dungeon Key (Bind)
Owner: Xiao Jun
Function: Open a portal to enter the dungeon.
Introduction: The dungeon is also known as the relics of the gods, hiding the treasures left by the legendary gods, the specific number of layers is unknown, each floor is guarded by monsters, and you can only enter the next layer after defeating the monsters.
After the adventurer's guild handed in the task, Xiao Jun did not reveal the existence of the bronze key, but asked Rena for this information through a side tap.
Although he had anticipated the preciousness of the key, he clearly underestimated its value.
Dungeon keys, one of the scarce relics of the gods, there are only 10 in the world, among the known dungeon keys, the human world, there are three keys managed by the adventurer's guild, the demons also have three dungeon keys, orcs and elves each have a key, and there is a rumored treasure house in the dragon family.
Now the last key appeared in Xiao Jun's hand.
Here are the three most important pieces of information about Dungeon Keys:
1. After the dungeon key is bound, it cannot be exchanged unless the owner dies.
2. Each key can only be used by one person, even if the owner opens the portal, no one else can enter.
3. No one knows the real location of the dungeon, and it may not exist in this space at all, and only the owner of the key can enter.
In addition to the treasures left behind by the gods, killing monsters in dungeons can earn more experience and level up faster.
Because of its totality, the dungeon has become a battleground for all races, and the number of keys in possession represents the strength of each race.
With Xiao Jun's current strength, it is impossible to be the opponent of the key owner of other races, if you encounter neutral orcs and elves, there may not be a fight, but if you bump into the old enemy of mankind, the demons, it must be a life-and-death situation.
If he could cooperate with the Adventurer's Guild and let the other three human key owners protect him, Xiao Jun would naturally be happy, but he was afraid that someone would have bad intentions and kill the current owner for the ownership of a dungeon key.
So until he doesn't have a certain strength, he doesn't plan to expose the fact that he has the key to the dungeon.
The scope of the dungeon is extremely vast, almost the level of another world, and there are only ten key owners who can enter this world, so as long as you are not particularly unlucky, you should not run into anyone else.
Although there were some dangers, in order to improve his strength as soon as possible, Xiao Jun finally decided to enter the dungeon.
With this bronze key, he can enter the dungeon at any time, and exit at any time as long as he is not in a combat state.
During the day, Xiao Jun carried out F-level missions as usual, hoping to be promoted to E-level adventurer as soon as possible, and at night, he began his first attempt.
The magic power in his body slowly poured into the bronze key in his palm, and the next moment, he saw a dazzling white light shoot out from it, piercing through the layers of space, forming a light door in the room that only allowed one person to pass through.
He stretched out a palm and easily passed through the light door, and with a look of determination on his face, he stepped inside.
The scene in front of him changed, from the hotel room to another world, the place where Xiao Jun was standing at the moment was a dim passage, surrounded by candle flames, with a sense of gloom in the silence, this is the first floor of the dungeon, the first time he came in was to randomly teleport to a certain location on the first floor of the dungeon, and the next time he came in, he teleported to the location when he left.
With his arrival, the whole world seemed to wake up all at once, and there was a seeping sound not far away, and a skeleton with a soul fire burning in its head walked over, with a miserable white skeleton, holding a rusty iron sword, and a terrifying atmosphere suddenly spread.
Skeleton soldiers
Grade: 10
Description: One of the most common undead creatures in dungeons, the Keeper of the first world.
After using the identification technique, Xiao Jun deliberately tested the strength of this monster, and a golden magic array lit up on the ground, and a green panda slime appeared in it.
Pet summoning, not subject to dungeon rules.
At his behest, the "Lone Bear" used a toxin attack, and a green water balloon floated past, not fast, but the skeleton soldier's movements were too stiff to dodge, and the water balloon hit the skeleton soldier's head head-on, and the liquid began to seep into it, and the green soul fire kept flickering, and then extinguished all at once.
Xiao Jun's voice came from the voice of "kill a skeleton soldier and gain a small amount of experience" in his head, seeing the rare slime kill a skeleton soldier so easily, his awe of the dungeon was slightly reduced, as long as it was not an enemy that was difficult to resist, he could use it to increase his strength.
After the skeleton soldier died, a small gray ** nucleus was left on the ground.
In the outside world, it is difficult for most monsters to form a magic core in their bodies, ordinary monsters can only get a magic core by killing a hundred, and low-level monsters like slimes will not get a magic core even if they kill a thousand, and the dungeon is full of magic power, even a weak existence like a skeleton soldier has a magic core in its body.
The magic core is widely used, mainly used to make magicians' staff and warrior weapons, as well as to provide magic power for the formation, in the adventurer's guild, the magic core can be exchanged for points, like the gray ** core in front of it is worth 1 point.
Now that he still has 100 points in arrears, Xiao Jun decided to work hard with "Lone Bear" to make money after throwing this magic core into the storage space.
As the skeleton soldiers were defeated one by one, the sound of gaining a small amount of experience was constantly heard, and the gray ** nuclei fell into the bag, and time passed quickly, and just as he was about to leave, a different skeleton appeared in front of him.
Skeleton Warrior
Grade: 15
Description: One of the most common undead creatures in dungeons, the Keeper of the first world.
Compared with the shabby skeleton soldiers, the skeleton warriors obviously looked much better, in addition to a sharp iron sword, they also wore a pair of armor, which was quite majestic.
In terms of strength, the skeleton soldier is slow, Xiao Jun can kill it almost effortlessly, but the skeleton warrior is much more sensitive, the "lone bear" poison attack was easily dodged by the other party, and the sword light flashed, splitting the rare slime's body in half.
If it were an ordinary creature, it would have been dead for a long time since it received this kind of damage, but as a slime, it is difficult for the "lone bear" to take fatal damage except for the fear of fire, but it will take a little time to recover after being split in half.
It was just a short moment just now, Xiao Jun didn't even have time to rescue, seeing the skeleton warrior in his hand, the expression on his face suddenly became much more solemn, compared to ordinary skeleton soldiers, the skeleton warrior has greatly improved in strength and speed, and the skeleton warrior in front of him seems to be able to use the combat skills of his life.
He was not afraid of this in the sea of corpses and blood in the last days, but a strong battle intent rose in his heart, and he reached out and took out a huge mace from the spatial crack in front of him, which was the trophy "Wooden Stick No. 1" that killed the Goblin King before, and the killing and bloody intent rolled around him, as if he was covered with an invisible coat.
The soul fire in the skull of the skeleton warrior flickered violently, although it did not leave any consciousness, but the past battle instinct made it feel a great threat, like a harmless prey that was originally harmless to humans and animals suddenly became a hunter who dominated everything.
If it were a living person, it would have followed its instinct to flee at this moment, but as an undead creature did not have this consciousness, and after a brief pause, the skeleton warrior rushed forward with an iron sword in hand.
"It's fast, it's strong, but it's ...... You met me!" In Xiao Jun's eyes, the undead creature in front of him was full of flaws, and the mace in his hand did not hesitate at all, mixed with a piercing tearing sound, and smashed it impartially.
The movement of the charging skeleton warrior stopped abruptly, and the constantly flickering soul fire seemed to carry a sense of confusion, why couldn't he feel the connection between the head and the body?
The spine was broken by a mace, Xiao Jun came to the skull that rolled to the ground, the undead creature was already dead, there was no pain, and it was difficult to cause any fatal injuries on the body, the only thing that needed to be done to kill it was to disperse the soul fire.
Wielding a mace, the skulls of the skeleton warriors on the ground are shattered, and the soul fire dissipates on its own after losing its pillar.
"Kill a skeleton warrior and gain some experience. ”
A hint from the personal terminal sounded in his ears, and Xiao Jun threw a slightly larger gray ** core into the storage space, and at the same time, three identical skeleton warriors appeared in front of him.
He can easily kill one skeleton warrior, but it doesn't mean that he can defeat three at the same time, because two fists are hard to beat four hands, but fortunately, the rare goblin has recovered by this time, allowing it to desperately entangle the other skeleton warriors.
Xiao Jun hunted the skeleton warriors alone, killing them all one after another, and after there were three more gray ** cores representing the skeleton warriors on the ground, a light curtain popped up in front of him:
"Villager level increased, 10→11"
