Chapter 28: Searching for the Holy King's Badge (2)
There was a loud bang nearby, and all the hunters looked in the direction from which the sound came, the sound of Trevor kicking against the abandoned well. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"There is a dark compartment in the center of the well, which can lead to deeper places in addition to drawing groundwater. ”
More than a dozen dark hunters came to the mouth of the well, and one after another looked down, and some lit torches and threw them into the mouth of the well to test the depth, and after a few seconds they fell into the water, the water under the well was not deep, and the corpses had already floated away with the open dark grid.
"Go find a rope, let's go down, you three follow!" At this moment, the leader of the hunters spoke, and he had a strange opinion about the three people in front of him, and decided to keep them in his field of vision.
The hunters fastened the rope to a nearby tree, and after making sure that it was secure, one of the pioneers followed the rope down to the bottom of the well, and he waded through the chest-high water level to look around, where there were originally two iron fences in the water that could be opened, that is, where the corpses were piled up, due to the shaking of the iron fence fulcrum that had fallen into disrepair for a long time, and fell to the bottom of the water with a dozen corpses, and now it has been carried to the depths of the underground water veins with the current.
"There's a passage here!!, only pass underwater!!," the hunter shouted toward the mouth of the well.
After receiving the news, the leader of the hunters decided to take six of his men and three others, including Kenjubei, to explore, and all ten of them went down the rope to the well......
After some time, the group dived underwater, passed through a barrier of about ten meters from the bottom, and came to a hollow passage, where there was still chest-high water level, and the light source was seriously insufficient, and everyone had to move forward with the current......
After about three minutes, a faint light shone through the dark passageway, and the water level also became lower, and the group slowly walked ashore, where they found the corpses washed down and a cavern leading to a deeper place, and further ahead was the deepest part of the underground water veins in the whole of Bajicht.
At this time, due to the soaking of his clothes, the outline of the greatsword slowly emerged from under Rolf's cloak, and he whispered to the two, "There is no way, if you continue like this, you will only be discovered...... Let's kill them......"
Shibei stopped him and whispered: "Not yet, if there is a trap in this treasure place, then let them step on ......"
Without thinking much of it, the Dark Hunters shook the mud and sand off their chainmail shirts, pushed the three of them away, and broke into the cave......
"The situation is getting better and better for us...... "The three of them were secretly happy and followed.
In the passage, the walls are made of neat bricks, and there are many torches inserted in the iron frames on the walls, and the dry environment of this place makes these centuries-old torches still ignite, so the hunters rub the fire and light the torches, and all the torches in the entire aisle are lit up like ghosts, lighting the way forward for them......
At the end of the passage, the hunter who was at the forefront of the path stumbled on a protruding floor, and a dozen steel spikes suddenly pierced out of the brick wall, killing the trapper.
"You're right, there really are traps...... Seeing this, Rolf began to rejoice that they were not sent to clear the way.
The Dark Hunters ignored their companion's corpse and continued to move forward, but with each step they became very cautious, lest they might touch some kind of murder trap......
Walking out of this passage, they were greeted by a patio where they stood on the top floor, with a wide circular staircase leading to an entrance to the lower level, and many bats roosted on the surrounding stone walls, as if the bottomless abyss was greeting them.
After walking some distance up the circular staircase, there was a jolt under his feet, and one of the hunters immediately shouted to warn the group, but his shout caused the two steps under his feet to loosen, and the collapsed stone steps fell into the dark abyss.
"Idiot, don't you know that the treble will cause a collapse...... Deserve. The other hunter, who had been almost implicated, made a sarcastic remark and jumped over the two stairs where they had fallen, continuing to move forward, and the three of them also sensed that they were about to be exposed, so they decided to eliminate the Dark Hunters on the platform below.
Eventually, they walked the last few stone stairs in fear to the platform in front of the entrance to the lower level, where the light was even darker, and several Dark Hunters gathered in the middle of the platform.
"That badge is in the depths of this tomb, if we don't get it, then don't think about seeing it again, let's go. The Hunter Leader boosted the morale of the last few hunters and prepared to go deeper.
"I'm sorry I can't let you do this, it's ours!" Rolf acted, stabbing his greatsword into the ground, drawing the eyes of the Dark Hunters.
The leader of the hunters was puzzled, but he also sensed the danger, so he clenched the spear in his hand and finally asked, "What are you talking nonsense?
The three of them snorted, ripped off their pilgrimage robes, and brandished their respective weapons to kill them......
"The fierce roar of the sword!!"
Forced to disguise, Rolf had enough, he slashed his sword to the ground, and the huge gravity forcibly overwhelmed the enemies in front of him, killing two enemies in an instant. Trevo also had no trouble defeating the remaining men with his whip stunt, and the two enforcers showed their strength here, but left no opponent for the Ten Guards.
After inspecting the pile of corpses on the ground, the Ten Guards found a surviving hunter, and Rolf immediately pinched the wound on the other's shoulder and brought it to his eyes, and said angrily: "I understand, this is the underground mausoleum of the Holy King! You cult lackeys came here in vain to take away the hero's badge? Stop dreaming, tell your true purpose!"
His hand clenched tighter and tighter, tearing open the sword wound on the person's shoulder, seeing that the other party still couldn't speak, Rolf punched his iron helmet and deformed, and the dizzy Dark Hunter was about to speak, but before he could speak, a flame struck from the deep passage, directly hitting his back door, the three of them immediately took a few steps back and took out their weapons, and the charred Dark Hunter turned into ashes after landing on the ground, and a deafening roar came from the cave......
