Chapter 88: Goodbye Stone Ball (2)

A spiral stone staircase also fell from the top of the second layer of the Secret Realm Tower, and Gu Cheng's figure disappeared into the second layer of the Secret Realm Tower.

What remained behind him was the second floor of the empty Secret Tower that had been looted.

Uncharted Tower, third floor.

Looking at the third layer of the Secret Realm Tower, which was exactly the same as when he came here in his previous life, Gu Cheng suddenly felt a faint relief in his heart.

Unlike the previous two floors, each of which has a caretaker, the third floor does not.

Moreover, the layout of the third floor has also changed greatly, which is divided into rooms, marked bedrooms, utility rooms, laboratories and so on.

Gu Cheng, who came to the third floor, went straight to the utility room.

When I came here in my previous life, as a professional who had just entered the intermediate level and became a sword master, my status in the adventure team was average, and I had the power to search for loot, but I could only go to the places where those in the top of the adventure team disdained to search.

Of course, even so, it is much better than those at the bottom who even have the power to search for loot on their own.

The mysterious stone ball was found during that adventure by rummaging through debris.

Entering the utility room, Gu Cheng flipped through the many tools piled up in it, as well as broken instruments and other miscellaneous items, and finally found a fist-sized stone ball located under the many miscellaneous items.

Looking at the familiar stone ball in his hand, Gu Cheng's excitement was indescribable.

It's just that soon, Gu Cheng's complexion changed.

Because when Gu Cheng tried to infuse spiritual energy into the stone ball and leave his spiritual imprint, Gu Cheng found that the stone ball in front of him was completely different from the stone ball he got in his previous life.

The stone ball in the previous life, under the communication of spiritual power, will clearly know some of the functions of the stone ball, such as shuttling to the dark world, such as the attribute panel......

But now the stone ball in front of you is a completely different existence.

With the activation of Gu Cheng's spiritual power, the stone skin on the outer layer of the stone ball in front of him all burst out and fell off, and then a fist-sized transparent crystal hidden in it was revealed.

The crystal emitted a white-gold glow, floating in front of Gu Cheng's eyes.

Then, when Gu Cheng carefully looked at this transparent crystal that emitted a white-gold glow all over his body, the crystal accelerated and disappeared when it hit Gu Cheng's head.

At the same time, in Gu Cheng's mind, next to the mysterious stone ball, a transparent crystal emitting a white-gold light appeared.

With the wisps of white-gold light on the crystal, Gu Cheng instantly felt that his brain had become much clearer, and under the illumination of the white-gold light, Gu Cheng even sensed that his spirit was slowly growing undetectably.

Sensing the two completely different residents in his mind, Gu Cheng also had many question marks in his heart, all of which were too different from what he had experienced before he was reborn.

It's just that I can't think of a reason for a while, and with the current situation of Gu Cheng, I can only keep all the doubts in my heart, and leave everything for later......

Coming out of the utility room, Gu Cheng first came to the room where the study was located and swept away all the books in it.

Soon, the third layer of the entire Secret Realm Tower could not escape Gu Cheng's search, and many items entered Gu Cheng's storage box one by one.

......

At sunset, in the yellow sand, a winding caravan weaves through the hills.

A six-legged camel beast that looked like a giant rhinoceros pulled a caravan full of goods, and followed behind the car in front of it with a steady and powerful step.

On the periphery of the caravan, a group of guards on horseback patrolled the front and back of the caravan.

"Everyone stops, everyone follows the usual formation to gather the convoy, go here today, and continue to set off tomorrow!"

A young man in the middle of the caravan, after receiving a notice from the owner of the caravan, rode a traveling horse and made a quick announcement along the front and back of the caravan.

"Why stop so early today, and a magic hour ......or two to-morrow," asked one of the many small traders in the caravan who were following the caravan for safety.

When the young man heard this, he said without looking back: "This is an order from the adults, and I am only responsible for passing on the word." ”

With that, the young man rode back to his life.

In a caravan in the middle of the caravan, a richly dressed merchant was constantly turning the ring on his hand in a hurry.

"Your Excellency the Mage, are there really bandits ambushing us ahead?"

——————

"It's not an ambush or an ambush, because there are a few lines of sight that have been secretly following us on this part of the road recently, but not long ago, only one or two of these lines of sight remained, and the others have disappeared. What these signals represent, I think you should also be clear. ”

In the caravan, the mage turned and looked at the merchant in front of him.

The mage is none other than Gu Cheng.

"Yes," the merchant wiped the sweat from his face, "I'll arrange the convoy as soon as possible, we're only half a day's journey from the city ahead, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning." ”

A cold crescent moon rises into the sky.

The caravan camped behind a sheltered hill, and a large circle of vehicles formed a large circle, lighting several huge bonfires, and many blazing torches were inserted on the perimeter of the vehicles, and the firelight illuminated a range of ten or twenty meters outside the camp.

The caravan's two guards in charge of security alerted the caravan to the death.

Instead of waiting for the expected robbers, the caravan welcomed an unexpected group of uninvited guests.

Gnolls.

Along with goblins and kobolds, they are one of the more common creatures in the Wild West.

It's just that they're more dangerous than goblins and kobolds, and the gnolls, with their sharp claws and agile skills, tend to cooperate with each other.

Coupled with the cowardly nature of goblins and kobolds, the brutal Gnolls are more aggressive.

The jackals are most fond of teaming up to sneak up on lone travelers.

However, when encountering a convoy of the size of the caravan that Gu Cheng was in at the moment, they would rarely attack unless the size of their race made them feel completely sure that they could eat the caravan.

And now, it is the situation where the jackals take the initiative to attack.

Under the light of the fire, a pair of green eyes slowly approached the caravan.

The guards and merchants in the caravan were all guarding in front of the many goods, staring closely at the many approaching gnolls in front of them.

At this moment, flames flew out of the caravan in the center of the caravan.

Huge fireballs flew out of the circle formed by the caravan vehicles and smashed into the group of gnolls.

The explosion of the fireball, combined with the damage caused by the subsequent splash of flames, instantly killed many gnolls in the vicinity of the fireball.

The air in the camp was filled with the stench of hair and flesh burned by the flames.
