"Is this the last barrier you are talking about, Elad?" the five men gathered in front of a strange door, watching this final defense. Along the way, everyone has passed through the fork in the road that Elard said, and there is indeed only one one-way teleportation circle at the end of the fork in the road, not an old-fashioned portal like the entrance, but a new type of teleportation circle. Vivien tentatively sensed it, and could determine that the circle led to the surface space sixty or seventy kilometers away, and theoretically there was no danger.

After confirming the way out, the five finally reached the end of the tunnel, to the door that led to the treasure. It was really outside the door, because it was indeed a metal door in front of meβ€”like the door used in the room where we lived every dayβ€”and it seemed particularly out of place in this narrow tunnel.

"It's really a 'door'. Lina wanted to reach out and touch the metal door but didn't dare, lest she trigger some strange trap: "This, can you touch it casually?"

Pannis squinted and looked at the metal door up and down, left and right, before nodding and saying, "I'm okay to look at here, just don't use force." ”

"Yes, you can touch it. Vivien took out several gadgets and put them in front of her eyes one by one, scanning all the areas near the gate in front of her through different devices: "There are no touch-type magic traps, neither on the gate nor on the walls. ”

"Will they be so kind?" Lina pursed her lips, raised her hand to gesture at the door, but did not dare to press it, and said in a low and gloomy tone: "I have been frightened by the previous two traps, although I haven't seen them with my own eyes, but just listening to the explanation, I feel that the person who designed the trap must be a psychopath, and the traps that come up with are set up as insidious." Maybe as soon as I press my hand like this, it will ...... Hey, bastard Pannis, I'll kill you. ”

Pannis just gave Lina a light nudge behind her back, causing her hand to touch the metal door. Seeing Lina's eyes erupting and turning her head, she immediately put on a serious look and looked at Lina with innocent eyes: "What's wrong with me, why are you going to kill me all of a sudden?"

"You two shut up. Catherine punched her in the head and roared, "Don't make any trouble, be serious, work hard, and if you dare to delay me from seeing my money, I will cook for a month when I go home." ”

"Yes, Captain. Pannis and Lina raised their heads at the same time, and instantly changed their clothes to look serious, but Catherine did not see their performance at all, and after roaring, they returned to their previous state, their eyes were blurred, their noses trembled slightly, their lips were slightly open, their arms were folded in front of their chests, their right hands were raised and their cheeks were raised, their faces were flushed, and the corners of their mouths were still smiling with happiness to the depths.

"How long is she going to stay like this?" asked Pannis, slamming Lina with his arm, "all the way." ”

"I guess until I see the treasure. Lina spread her hands and said helplessly: "But it's okay, I will return to normal immediately in case of danger." ”

"Hopefully. Okay, I'm going to work too. Pannis took out a bunch of gadgets and put them in his pocket, took out one again and fastened it to his ear, tilted his head sideways so that the other end of the tool was clinging to the rock wall, and knocked his hand on the wall with his half-closed eyes seemingly randomly.

"Found it. Vivien shouted, and although she cried out that she had found it, there was no expression of joy on her face.

"What's the matter with that expression?" Lina leaned behind Vivien and asked, "Why aren't you happy when you found it?"

"I couldn't be happier. Vivien frowned and said, "The process is too simple, the trap is almost in front of me, and anyone with a little knowledge of spells can see through it." ”

"That's weird. Lina was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "According to the previous two traps, including the way the door is opened, the person who built these traps should be a guy who is good at trickery, and it will not be here but will become simpler." ”

"Yes, that's what I think about, so I'm not happy. Vivien sighed and said sullenly, "This shows that the trap on the surface is probably just an illusion, and it will be troublesome to find the real trap." ”

"Hehe, then it's hard for you, I can't help anyway. Lina stuck out her tongue, folded her hands in a gesture of please, and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, and Pannis, please two of you." ”

"I'm looking. Pannisy leaned on the wall and rubbed up and down: "The more complex the trap, the more it needs a huge energy supply system as support, so Vivien looks for the trap from the front, and my side is from the side, that is, the energy supply system to find a breakthrough." ”

"Sounds complicated. Lina said, "Is trap detection so troublesome?"

"Shhhh Pannis put his finger to his mouth and shh......h Well, you better go talk to Erad and don't let him wreak havoc at a critical time, and don't trust him too much, even though he seems harmless now. ”

"Don't worry, I'm prepared. Lina also lowered her voice: "I'll keep an eye on him." ”

"Alright, get to work. Pannis waited for Lina to leave and said to Vivien, "How are you doing over there?" ”

"There are some ideas that need to be validated and tested. Vivien said, "What about you?"

"I just found an energy exchange node. Pannis replied, "But my sense of magic is a little weak in this area, so I try to follow the node as much as possible." ”

The two of them shut up at the same time, and Vivien pressed her face against the metal door again, using the skin on her face to feel the flow of energy under the metal. Normally, when she touches and perceives objects with her hands, she is actually making a gesture, and she only touches the other person with energy to perceive, but when she needs to really subtle detection, she has to actually touch it with her tactile skin. The clean skin on Vivien's face rubbed against the rough metal door, and the dust made her face black and white, but she didn't realize it, and even stuck out her tongue to touch the metal door when necessary, using the most sensitive skin on the surface of her body to track and verify.

"Here. Lying at the base of the rock wall next to the metal door, Pannis beckoned to Vivien, "Come and see." ”

"Sure enough, it's here. Vivien carefully manipulated the magic power and tried it: "It's very insidious, linked to the first trap, once the first trap is cracked, this second trap will replace the role of the first one, if we don't find out, once the door is opened, ......"

"Could there be a third?" Pannis touched his chin and thought, "There are only these two, I'm afraid it's not the style of the designer here, what if there is a third?"

"No, the more complex the linkage system, the easier it is to have problems, even with current technology, many times it is better not to set up triple linkage, let alone 700 years ago. Vivien rubbed the soft hat on her head and said as she paced back and forth, "But to be on the safe side, why don't you look for it again?"

"Let's look for it again, don't be in a hurry for ten minutes. Pannis nodded, "It's too late to cry if something happens." ”

Soon, the two of them returned to their previous state, leaning against the wall in various strange postures, using their respective energy to make subtle explorations centimeter by centimeter. During this period, Lina came over to take a look and found that the two of them didn't seem to be making any progress, so they had to stay away from it.

"Hey, Pannis, come and see, I don't know if it's my delusion. Vivien said, "I always feel that at this node, there is a magic channel that seems to be nothing. ”

"Here?" Pennis walked over and knocked on the rock wall, "Does it seem to be there?"

"yes, so I'm not sure. Vivien bit her lip and said depressedly, "I think there should be." ”

"Really. Pannis took his hand away from the wall and nodded at the position of the node: "If you don't say that I have ignored the past, it is too weak, so weak that it can't play any role at all, and such a magic channel can't play a role in linkage at all." ”

"No, it works. Vivien's eyes suddenly lit up, and she came to her senses: "I understand, the purpose of this magic passage is to let the third trap know that it exists. ”

"Oh!" Pannis also reacted: "That is, once the energy transmission of this magic channel stops, whether someone activates it or not, the third trap will immediately explode?"

"That's it. Vivien clapped her hands excitedly and said with a smile: "This is in line with the insidiousness of the builders here, one link after another, if you ignore any link, a tragedy will happen, just like the linkage trap in the tempest corridor before." ”

"Yes. Pannis agreed: "However, I feel that the location of the third trap is inside the passage inside, how about it, are you sure to manipulate the energy through the wall to crack the trap inside?"

"You're asking me?" Vivien raised her chin and sneered, "What are you kidding, the one standing in front of you is a genius among geniuses, you dare to ask me if I'm sure, hum, hum, can I understand that you are underestimating me?"

"You've figured it out. Hearing the conversation between the two, it was Catherine who took the lead: "It seems that there is no problem." ”

"Ah, eldest sister, have you recovered?" Vivien said in surprise, "I thought ......"

"What recovered. Catherine pressed her cheeks, which were a little reddened, and said with a little embarrassment: "I'm just a little distracted, yes, just a little distracted, only a little, and I don't need to recover at all." Hate, don't change the subject, ask you, have you found a way?"

"Yes, I found it. Vivien danced and excitedly told the three of them about the process of finding the trap: "So, now as long as I follow the order, starting with the third trap, and crack them one by one, we can get the treasure, hahahaha." ”

"I don't think it's right. Catherine asked suspiciously, "What if the heir of the Naryn Kingdom is not familiar with trap dismantling?

Pannis and Vivien looked at each other for a long time, and then suddenly they all came to the door, and a few seconds later burst into laughter at the same time.

"Sure enough, sometimes insiders try their best to explore and discuss in various ways, but in fact, it is far less useful than a layman's words. Vivian leaned against the wall and gasped with laughter: "Big sister, I really admire you." ”

"What's wrong?" Catherine asked inexplicably, "Did I say something wrong?"

"Yes, of course. Pannis also covered his stomach with a smile: "Let me ask you a question, what is the meaning of the existence of a door?"

"Uh, this...... Is it a philosophical question?" Catherine replied stunned, "Meaning? I really don't know about that." ”

"The purpose of the door is to open it. With that, Pannis pushed open the metal door with all his might.
