Chapter 270: The Explorer's Corpse

Benjamin took a small bag and put away the six forbidden spells. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info Then, he refocused his gaze on the three people in front of him.

"Well, is there anything else you'd like to ask, and if not, take care of yourself. ā€

Privately, he even wanted to kick the three out of the way, and not let them walk around in the ruins he had opened. However, he knows very well that in this situation, it is estimated that it is difficult for him to enjoy this place alone. Therefore, he is still more inclined to continue to explore on his own, catch up with others, and reap as many benefits as possible.

"Will you continue to explore here?" asked Tony.

Benjamin nodded and said calmly, "This is the ruins I opened with my own hands, and whether I gain it or not, I will definitely explore it myself." ā€

"That's right...... Then let's go somewhere else to explore first, so we won't bother Your Excellency. Tony, apparently sensing Benjamin's displeasure, smiled awkwardly and said, "If you find something you don't understand, you can tell us." Please believe that the Masonic Masonic Society is working for the benefit of all the mages in the world, and we will help every mage. ā€

Benjamin took a deep breath and smiled, "I understand. ā€

In this way, the mage Freemasonry is not overbearing. Maybe their big guy is not around here, there are only three little mages, so the posture is still more interesting. After walking the stone slab, they left the place that resembled the council chamber, and they didn't know where to run.

Benjamin stayed in the building and stepped up his movements.

He is confident in his judgment. It is the center of the entire underground city and the place where all the inhabitants of the city are killed. If you can find something, it will definitely be found here. Looking elsewhere, I don't think I can find much.

Passing through several dilapidated corridors, he continued his walk deeper into the building.

At the heart of the place is a large hall with weathered seating and a rotten ceiling. Benjamin looked up and looked closely, and saw another mural on the ceiling. It's just that the mural is peeling off badly, and the only part Benjamin can see clearly is a man burning a stone with fire.

After thinking about it, he flew up, approached the mural, and looked more closely.

On closer inspection, the burned stone looks very similar to the greenish stone. At the same time, the other hand of the person in the painting is held above the stone, and under the exaggerated painting style, a few drops of red liquid drip out of the hand and fall on the stone.

Benjamin was thoughtful.

...... Is that how to use stones?

While burning it with fire, he dripped his own blood on it, and Benjamin remembered it in his heart. Then, he used a water polo technique to completely destroy the mural so that no one else could see it. He then fell back to the ground, ready to go back and try it himself.

After looking around here again, he found nothing more, and Benjamin was about to leave. However, the moment he turned around, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and he kept an extra eye on it, and scanned the entire hall with the water elemental sensing method.

And with this sweep, Benjamin quickly noticed that something was wrong.

Under one of the seats on the right side of the hall, it's empty!

Surprised, he hurriedly walked over and knocked on the ground. There is no doubt that there is something wrong with this place, and as for whether it is a secret compartment or a secret passage hidden underneath, he can only wait for him to find out.

However, it was probably too long before the mechanism failed, and Benjamin had no choice but to use an ice smashing technique to forcibly blast the ground open. Then, a deep tunnel emerged.

Seeing this, Benjamin hesitated, but walked in.

All the way to the water elemental sensing method, he didn't encounter any danger. The tunnel was not long, and in less than half a minute, he walked out of the tunnel and came to a place like a small black house.

Here, Benjamin found a corpse.

"It's ......"

Unlike the bones piled up outside, it can be seen that this corpse and they are not of the same age. The corpses outside were all bones left, and here, the corpses were still in a semi-dry state, not completely weathered.

Therefore, Benjamin was quite surprised to sense this scene through the water element.

This man is not the original inhabitant of this underground city, who is he?

Don't...... Have there been any other explorers here?

Thinking of this, the doubts in his heart increased instead of decreasing.

If there were explorers from the past, why had the city only been discovered by Benjamin now? Did this man come in and die here? Who sealed the cave at the entrance? Why did he die in a darkroom under the council chamber?

Benjamin suddenly sensed something was wrong.

This explorer...... What did he get killed?

After observing for a while, Benjamin did not find any wounds on his body, perhaps the wounds had disappeared from the ravages of time, or perhaps the man had not died of injuries. Benjamin had not studied forensic medicine and could not verify any results.

It's just that he still has a bad premonition.

The corpse also had a small bag in its possession, which contained several broken books. Benjamin didn't think much of it, put the book away, didn't read it, turned and left the darkroom that he felt a little dangerous.

Explorers have died here, which means that this place is not an empty city.

Over here...... I guess there's something else that can kill people.

Suddenly he didn't want to stay here for long.

Out of the council chamber and flying over the mountains of bones, Benjamin returned to the streets of the ruins. The streets were as calm as they had been at first, and the three of them didn't know where to go, except for the statues walking around in a blank manner.

Looking at this scene, somehow, the uneasiness in Benjamin's heart became more intense.

He picked up a few more glowing green stones, and when he had put them away, he flew up and returned the way he had come to the entrance. He walked in through the entrance, and the green light faded and everything was dark again. In this way, he walked out as fast as he could along the cave from which he had entered.

Ten minutes later, he came to the end.

Suddenly, Benjamin was stunned.

In his memory, what should have been an opening in the mountain wall has now become a dead end. He reached out and touched the hard stone wall in front of him, the rough and solid touch was so real that he thought he was hallucinating again.

Unfolding the water element induction method, the other end of the stone wall is still a stone wall, and there is no exit.

But...... How so?

What blocked the exit?

Stunned, he took out the parchment again and slapped it hard. Unfortunately, the parchment did not glow green, and the stone wall did not crack with a thud, revealing the exit.

Benjamin couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This place...... Sure enough, there was a problem.

Calming his mind, Benjamin condensed an ice blade and stabbed his fingertips, causing blood to drip onto the parchment again. Eventually, the parchment glowed green, and it was possible to slap it forward, and the solid stone wall still did not open the passage.

In desperation, Benjamin had no choice but to reopen the parchment.

However, at this casual glance, he was a little stunned to find that in the green light, the shape of the parchment this time was completely different from the last time he saw it.
