After finally walking this road, Lukka looked at the steps in front of him and broke out in a cold sweat.

He had now come to the "spear" part of the island, and the towering cylindrical peak was in front of him.

The entire peak is made of black rock, and a row of steps no more than two meters wide spirals up the smooth curved stone wall. It's steep, but more importantly, one side of the steps is attached to the stone wall, but the other side is not covered by anything, not even a safety rope!

Lukka had the urge to take the staff out of the box, and if the staff was in hand, he had a hundred ways to climb the stone wall in front of him without difficulty.

Rather than ascending the steps, Marcette stopped in the clearing in front of the stone wall and knocked twice on a slightly lighter spot on the stone wall.

"Stand back, everybody!" he said, and immediately dodged back into the group.

A black object fell from above, about three or four meters in length, and if Marchette had retreated a little slower, it would have been smashed into a patty.

Less than half a meter above the ground, the thing came to a halt abruptly, and the metal chains attached above it stretched straight and made a "clang" sound.

Lukka saw that it was a large metal cage with a wooden bottom and an iron fence around it.

"Let's go. Marcette said, opening the door and stepping up.

Luka and the others followed him, and after seven more black market employees entered the metal cage, Marchette stretched out his hand to stop the people behind him and said, "Twenty people at most, and the rest will wait for the next trip." ”

With that, he knocked on the stone wall again.

The iron chains on the cage were put away, and with the screak sound of "squeak, squeak", the iron cage containing twenty people slowly rose, and they were sent to the top of the mountain without danger.

As he waited for the remaining black marketeers, Lukka moved his tense leg muscles slightly. Out of the gate of the building in front of him was a middle-aged man in a gray smock, who was supposed to be a low-ranking priest of the Storm Temple. He greeted Marchette and checked the number of labels on the boxes in each person's hand one by one.

The priest didn't see anything wrong with the black market, and even Phil and Thea, who were obviously not tall, and the half-giant Linde, who was too tall, didn't make him ask any questions, and nodded to everyone with a smile.

It took five trips for the iron cage to get everyone to the Storm Temple.

The priest asked, "Is this all the goods?"

March nodded: "Or send it to the warehouse?"

"Yes, please come with me. The priest replied.

He led Marcit and Lukka into the door, down the stairs on the left side of the building, into the basement of the Storm Temple, the warehouse area.

Mores followed Luca, touched him with his arm, and nodded at a stone door on the right side of the passage.

"Is that the vault?" asked Lukka in a low voice.

"Yes. "Although Mores has never been here, the structure of the Storm Temple Vault is the same as that of the Sea Knight Temple, and he can recognize it at a glance.

Marchette suddenly turned around in front and said, "Follow!"

It's not good to grab the vault in front of so many people now, and Luka can only speed up his pace.

The priest stopped at the end of the corridor, pointed to the doors beside him, and said, "Please carry the goods to these warehouses according to the number of the goods you are carrying." I'll go back to the entrance and wait for you, although it's past lunch time, we still have some refreshments, so please eat before leaving. ”

The last sentence was addressed to Marchit, and it was clearly up to him whether or not to eat.

Marche nodded and said, "Thank you, but we don't force employees to participate in this kind of thing, and those who don't want to eat can go back to the boat first." ”

This answer made Luca very satisfied, if he went to eat all, it would inevitably count the number of people and arrange the seats, and it would not be so easy for him to get out. If they didn't go at all, the less than a hundred people would soon leave, and it would be easy to see that there were twelve of them.

Someone goes to eat, someone goes back to the ship, which creates an opportunity for Lukka to infiltrate the vault.

"Of course, then please be careful with the goods, and be sure to place them properly in the warehouse. The priest replied with a smile on his face.

Lukka looked at the number on his box, and the tail number was zero, and the two tail numbers of zero and one corresponded to the first room on the left hand. He glanced back, and there was one on Ollie's box next to him, and everyone else was also these two numbers, it seemed that Marchette had already planned it.

Lukka was about to push the door when the priest said in a loud voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, please close the door when you enter the storeroom, and then open the door after you have placed the goods, for there are many things in these storerooms that are very afraid of the wind." ”

"Rest assured. Marchitt said.

"Then I'm going to prepare snacks for you. With that, the priest turned and walked up the stairs.

Exactly what I wanted, Lukka thought. If the door is wide open, he really can't hide his whereabouts.

After all twelve men entered the storeroom, Daniel at the back of the room immediately closed the door.

Lukka looked around, didn't find any problems, pulled off the black cloth on his face and said, "I'll cast the invisibility spell later, let's stay here for a while, and then go to see the vault when everyone is gone." ”

"Would you like to change your clothes back?" Thea asked, though the cotton uniform wasn't rough, but Silver Dragon had never been fond of such modest clothing.

"No, my invisibility technique doesn't work for you, and you can't change what others can change. In case someone finds out, you can say that you haven't found a place to eat. Lukka put the mask back over his face.

"Well, it's a pity that I can't go with them, I've heard that there are a lot of flavorful snacks in the Empire. Nora said with some regret.

"It's important to get down to business. Kate pressed her ear to the door, listening carefully to the movement outside.

After half an hour, the sound outside the door gradually subsided, the black market employees should have left, Kate turned around and asked, "Do you want to wait until evening?"

Lukka shook his head, took out his staff from the box, and cast invisibility on everyone, making everyone invisible except Thea.

He walked to the door, put his ear on it too, made sure there was no sound outside, reached for the doorknob, and twisted it.

The doorknob didn't move.

"Locked?" asked Ollie as she looked at the clicking, but unable to turn handle.

"Seems so. Lukka started to get nervous.

"I'll try!"

Thea rushed over, pulled the hair card from her hair, and tinkered with it for ten minutes, saying with a frustrated face, "It's the first time I've touched a lock that can't be opened!"

"Get out of the way!" Lukka said, not caring that the invisibility spell would fail, and raised the amethyst staff and cast an advanced lockpicking spell.
