Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Secret Door
Imagine lying comfortably in a steaming bathhouse on a sunny afternoon, with a freshly mixed cocktail at hand, the sun streaming through the overhead window, the glass refracted in all colors, and the moisture that fills you off from the noisy world around you......
That's so laid-back and comfortable~
"When I saw this bathhouse, I seemed to have begun to envy the guys who lived here more than 10,000 years ago. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Luo Luo sighed.
"Do you want to feel the happiness of bathing here? Maybe it won't be long before we adventurers have cleaned up this floor, and the Holy Alliance will send someone to further develop this place, turn this place into a monumental attraction, and repair it accordingly on the basis of preserving the original appearance as much as possible, I believe that the time for this bath to reopen is not far away." "Edward the old thief.
His retinue Amy couldn't help but interject, "We've been to the dungeon near the Hearthplace, and the dungeon on the Frost Plateau is the only two dungeons that have been conquered, and now it has been transformed into a tourist mecca, and many people go there every year to play, tsk, there are carnival performances on the sixth floor every night, tsk, but the prices there are also ridiculously expensive, and those hateful dwarves make a lot of money from this dungeon." Amy stuck out her tongue as she spoke.
Although they were chatting, several people's hands were not idle, and they quickly turned over the bath, among which Baker found a tunnel in the alley on the west side of the bathhouse, and found that the exit of the tunnel was open in the dressing room of the women's department of the bathhouse.
This embarrassed the elven archers.
"Tsk, it seems that there are idiots in every era. The Grand Mage soon discovered a tunnel around it, but it turned out to be a shortcut to the boiler room.
Although the old thief Edward failed to find the tunnel, he accidentally dug up the private money of the suspected bathhouse owner, but those strange silver coins could not be used directly, and they needed to be recast, of course, they could also be sold as monuments to interested collectors, and they should still be worth a lot of money by visual inspection.
In the end, it was Lolo who found some useful clues, and the girl pointed to the main door of a lounge on the second floor, "Look here!"
"Well, what is this?" the old thief Edward leaned in, and found that the door had many grooves of varying shades, which looked like scratches from some animal.
"It's a ghoul!" Baker recognized the origin of the scratches at a glance, and the elven archer looked at the young scholar beside him, "If I'm not mistaken, you said that the guy who provided the clue had his team once been hunted by a group of ghouls. ”
Well, he also said that the rest of the team had hung up, and that he was the only one who survived and escaped all the way here, and later stumbled into the secret tunnel he found to avoid the ghouls. Rob saw the scratches on the door and quickly speculated about what had happened here before, "It looks like he's been hiding in this hut before." ”
The archmage pushed open the door and walked around the room, but he didn't find any other exits, the only window was also locked from the inside, after all, this is only the second floor, not too high from the ground, of course, jumping out of the window is the most likely option, but considering that there was only one person in the house at the time, if the guy in the house chose to jump out of the window at that time, then the window should be open, because the ghoul will not help you close the window anyway.
Rob quickly glanced around, then walked to a marble table on the west side, groped under the table for a while, and sure enough, he found a raised point, and when he pulled it, a small door on the opposite wall slowly opened.
Luo Luo on the side was dumbfounded, "What the hell, there is actually a secret door?! To say that there is no strange service in this bath, I don't believe it at first." ”
“............”
The faces of several men in the room were a little embarrassed, well, the first thought that rose in the hearts of several people behind the secret door just now was actually something like "Hehe, I must come to take a bath when this place reopens in the future", but the future Super Magister's face was still the same, and even after hearing the rookie brave's words, he paused for a moment, "Strange service? What strange service?!"
The girl looked suspicious, "It's really fake, you must be pretending, why don't you even know this when you look very smart, isn't this thing common sense that every man should know?"
"Eh, is this kind of thing common sense?!" The future super mage was stunned, but since he decided to leave the magic academy, leave the protection of Deman and Steins, and live a good life alone, it is particularly important to make up for the lack of common sense as soon as possible, and the boy decided that when this expedition is over, he must find a bathhouse to experience the so-called strange service.
"It's over, I seem to have told you something great. Lolo shook his head.
Amy said cautiously, "Shall we go in now?"
"Well, since it's basically confirmed that it's here, let's send a signal to Captain Hansen, and let's go and have a look when everyone arrives. Edward said, finally ending a certain shameful topic, and the old thief breathed a sigh of relief.
Half an hour later, not only Hansen, but also Hilton and Green also rushed over, and all the members of the team had already gathered, and the great magician opened the secret door again, and everyone walked in one by one.
Opposite the door was a row of stairs, and judging by the footprints on the floor of floating ash, the unlucky ghost who had been targeted by the ghoul before must have run down.
They followed the footsteps and eventually came to a small storage room, the door of which was locked from the outside, but the floor tiles that had been lifted open revealed a half-black hole.
"Well, that's it. ”
After spending so many days, I was finally about to see the legendary secret treasure, and at this moment everyone's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated a little, judging from all the signs nearby, it was obvious that no one had touched this place again, which should be good news, in other words, the secret treasure should still be inside.
"Be careful, every treasure has a guardian. Han Sen instructed, "Judging from the information we have received before, the guardian here is likely to be a water-based demonic beast, and we will try to lure it to the shore as much as possible when we fight, so that its strength will be weakened." ”
After a pause to improve everyone's morale, the second-order swordsman said, "Don't worry, the strength of the first-tier guardians will not be too strong, except for that hell lizard monitor lizard, there are basically no third-order demonic beasts, with the strength of our squad, it is enough to take it down." ”
