Chapter 30: Breaking the Seal

A burst of bubbles appeared on the water in front of the berth of the central island of "......", accompanied by two figures. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Despite being in the tropics, the waters were still bitterly cold in November, and Johnson and Nabal, who had gone into the water to scout, both surfaced, and the two gasped and walked ashore to rest. Under the dazzling sunlight, a blue mark on the back of their hands disappeared with the air, and Xiao Yi's party, who had been waiting on the shore of the central island for a long time, hurriedly rushed forward to ask the two about their underwater conditions.

"This place is easy to find, diving in a straight line of about forty or fifty meters...... Call...... You can see the big hole, but unfortunately there is no light source in it, do you really want to go down?" Johnson was not optimistic about the proposal, he took off his soaked undershirt, wrung it out, and put it on his wrist.

Nabal walked around behind Johns and pushed him, as if Johns was talking nonsense, he puffed up his strong muscles, and said: "Lao Tzu is not afraid! The regimental commander specially called me, because I am familiar with water warfare, if there are any water monsters below, just rest assured that Uncle Ben will be fine!"

"There's no negotiability~ We have to go together, since we have to go into the water, do we have to adjust the equipment we carry with us?"

Shaw was worried about the gear she would be able to bring with her when she got into the water, and Sophia said to her, "Don't worry, I think my father will bring some good things." ”

"Yes! I brought a lot of useful ones!"

Nearby, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and Atros jumped off the back of a steed, patting the many tools hanging from the saddle, including a few special clothes and a few backpacks made of waterproof materials, which he distributed to the crowd, Johnson said that he had a job to do and left, and the remaining four people, Shoey, Sophia, Melva, and Nabal, changed into special tights, and put some of the secondary weapons they needed in the backpack and went to the shallow......

"It's so uncomfortable...... It's waterproof, but it's too ugly, isn't it?" Shoey complained about the tights he was wearing, and Atros, who was laughing on the shore, said, "You guys...... This is a tight-fitting tights, not for you to wear as a jacket, but casually~"

Sieg held the Sirius Knife and sliced out some blood from his palm, half an hour before he had used the technique taught by the Sirius to draw the underwater breathing spell for Nabal and Johnson, and he was now very proficient. The blade of the wolf bloomed with dazzling light, and Sieg used the power of his mind to use his own blood as paint to draw water breath engravings on the arms of the four people beside him, and said to Xiao Yi: "Commander, remember that you must not leave the water, otherwise the spell will disappear." ”

She waved her hand, "I see...... That strange knife is really useful, this engraving can keep us underwater for at least a quarter of an hour, right?"

"Yes, let's go!" After confirming that he also had a spell on his arm, Sieg jumped into the water first, followed by Nabal, and Sophia and Melva also dived, leaving only Shoy and Atros on the shore......

"Don't worry, if something goes wrong...... Uncle will go and save you~"

"Without this spell, how can you save us...... Don't crow's mouth! I'm going to go too!"

Seeing that Atros was still smiling and watching his partners go into the water, Xiao Yi also dived into the depths in anger, and the fluctuating water surface returned to calm again, although the smile on his face did not change, but Atros stared closely at the nearby water surface, silently praying for the safety of the five people......

"It's pitch black...... Are there any ghosts in this place......"

After more than ten minutes of moving in the water, the five of them finally came to the deepest part of the cave under the island, and although they stepped on the hard ground, everything around them was in darkness, and they could only feel each other's breathing.

"Don't worry, Captain, I've got torches, wait for me to light them!"

Nabal's loud voice echoed through the environment, and the harshness of the echo made it clear that it was a large cavern, and in a few moments, a warm light appeared from Nabal's hand, and he planted the torch on the ground, and the flames warmed the people's bodies and illuminated a part of the nearby area.

"Ghost ...... Ghost ......"

The sudden sound from behind her gave Shoey goosebumps, and she took off the tights she was wearing, took out the dagger in the scabbard and stabbed it behind her, trembling and saying, "...... Who...... Don't be scared...... Scare me!"

"Ahaha! I didn't expect the head of the regiment, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, to be scared by me!"

Nabal walked out of the darkness with a wicked smile, and Shaw's face, who had been very frightened a few seconds ago, suddenly changed, and she angrily grabbed a stick on the ground and slammed it on Nabal's forehead, only to hear a crisp "click", and the object in her hand broke.

"It's ...... What animal bones!!"

With the faint light of the fire, it could be seen that Xiao Yi was holding one of the carpal bones of some kind of animal in his hand, and she threw it aside in horror. Sieg grabbed a torch from the ground and walked to her side, where the bones of a fish-man lay in the area illuminated by the firelight.

"It's human, it's not like ...... It has a tail, maybe it's a half-fishman?" Sophia leaned over to examine the skeleton, which she assumed was more than three hundred years old, judging by the complete disappearance of the flesh and the fragility of the skeleton.

Shoey remembered Cayero, the captain of Heart of the Sea, who was also a monster in the sea, and guessed: "This fish-man must have come here with Caillero to snatch the gem more than 300 years ago, but died at the hands of the Guardian." ”

"Okay...... It looks like it's safe here, so let's try to stay close together, and I'll get out of the way!"

Sophia took the torch from Sieg's hand, Nabal took another one from his backpack and lit it and handed it to Melva, the field of vision was about twice as large in the light of the two torches, and the sharp blades on the many dust-covered weapon racks nearby were very obvious in the firelight, but these steel weapons were obviously not from the hands of the ancient dwarves, and the five of them walked in the same direction in great tension, and a low wall engraved with mysterious spells stood in front of them.

"Can this open? Looks like a moving door...... Then come and do me a favor!"

Nabal received Shaw's order to go to one end of the low wall and push it, but the wall did not move, and when Nabal took a giant hammer from a nearby weapon rack and tried to break it to pieces, a majestic and familiar voice stopped him, and everyone could not help but be a little surprised, and turned in the direction from which the sound came.

"This door must not be opened, and if the Ancient Spell Armor is released, you will all die. ”

Xiao Yi strengthened his courage and barely squeezed out a sentence: "You...... Who are you......? How did you get in?"

With the sound of the blade grinding against its sheath, the man spoke again.

"You can call me Simon, or Mulasem, I am the master of this place, and you should be the so-called intruder. ”

Although there were no footsteps, from the end of the firelight appeared a young samurai in leather armor armed with a sword and gradually approaching them, although the appearance was exactly the same as Caerro, but it was clear from the strong and murderous aura without a trace of evil that he was the real guardian of the sacred stone, Simon.

When Simon appeared, Nabal instinctively took a few steps back, but Melva stepped forward and said to Simon, "Guardian of the Blessings of the Sea, Lord Simon...... Why is this the case?"

"Indeed...... He is not in the same parallel as us, and when you close your eyes, the place where he is is is empty. Sieg reminded the crowd to be vigilant, but Simon's words dispelled their guard.

"My body has long since been destroyed, and this is only the Force of the Water Elemental Gem that nourishes all things. Are you members of the Holy Religion?"

Melva nodded, and Simon waved his hand upward, and the torches on the four walls of the entire cave were lit up, and in addition to many sharp weapons, this huge grotto also had several stone walls that were identical to the low wall just now, but the characters on them were different.

"Since you're here...... It must be to retrieve the elemental gems I guard, right?"

Everyone nodded, and Simon said regretfully: "It's a pity, the holy stone is no longer in my hands, after the seal was broken, it was split into two, one part of which was taken away by a creature that transformed into me, and the other part was attached to the ancient dwarven machine because of the leakage of power, and it is almost impossible to recover it." ”

Shaw asked uncertainly, "Could it be those ...... behind the wall?"

Simon motioned for her to guess correctly, and moved her body, which was no longer able to do anything, to the side of several people, explaining all the secrets in the armory: "This is a hidden place that has existed since the primeval period, one of the d'Abaran dwarf armories in the last era, where the gnomes carried out scientific and technological development, and I don't know when, these natural scientists all disappeared from this continent, leaving only these dangerous robots, all seven seals representing gold, silver, lead, iron, copper, steel, Metals such as titanium, when the seal is lifted, primeval mechanical monsters made of these metals will reappear, and fragments of the bounty of the ocean will also be integrated into them, as if a necromancer bestowed a second false soul on the dead. ”

"Uh...... What does it mean to break the seal?"

The stone wall that had been pushed by Nabal changed at this moment, and the curse mark on it began to spread a faint light in all directions, and Nabal, who was stunned, felt extremely guilty for this phenomenon, because he had brought the greatest danger to his companions......

Xiao Yi fired a shot into the air and shouted, "It looks like it's a big problem!

In order to perform at their best, Melva and the others took off their bodysuits that restrained their mobility, took out their weapons in their backpacks, and waited for the dwarven machines with vitality to appear.

"Boom!!"

A powerful tremor shattered the shaking stone wall, and an extremely large humanoid figure appeared in the smoke and dust, the sound of gears and metal rubbing resounded through the cavern, and the first sealed mechanical soldier had awakened, and the seams of its body shimmered outwards in the smoke, indicating that it was dominated by the force of the ocean's bounty.

Simon reminded, under intense pressure, "This is the Iron Giant, I've studied the blueprints that have been left behind, and it can manipulate fire!

Before they could react, the roar of the machinery continued to erupt from the ground, and the vicinity turned into a sea of fire......
