The metal gate crosses in front of her, and this is the first door facility Catherine has seen since entering the underground waters.

The current location is a connecting area inside the sewer, where seven or eight branch pipes meet in different directions and converge into a secondary trunk road that leads into the distance. On the pedestrian path on the side of the interchange, there is a metal door that is slightly above the ground. Although the silver-white metal door made of goblin alloy has been exposed to the environment for 10,000 years, only a layer of rust on the surface remains, and the rest of the door is still intact, which shows that the highly developed technology in metal smelting in the Goblin Age is visible.

A total of eleven members of both sides are gathered outside the metal door, and the real-time map shows that there is a large space behind the metal door for unknown purposes. Before arriving here, everyone had argued about how to sneak inside without being detected, but this argument was stopped by a word. In fact, it is very simple to understand, in this kind of narrow environment that has been run by the spell-casting profession for a long time, it is simply an impossible task for a group of people to sneak in, rather than wasting energy on this impossible thing, it is more realistic to analyze the comparison of the strength of the enemy and the enemy.

Indeed, the situation we are facing now is an awkward situation in the midst of adventure. No one knows how many people there are on the other side and what kind of combat effectiveness they have, but the number of people on their own side is very clear to the other side, and the information is extremely unequal. This situation is dangerous, and all adventurers will try their best to avoid it, because most of the attrition and even annihilation are inseparable from this situation. However, in actual adventures, it is very common to encounter such embarrassment, not having enough information to judge what enemy they are going to encounter, and the fleeting opportunity does not allow more research on the enemy, which will lead to the problem of unequal information, which is why the casualty rate of adventurers is still high even under the best protection of the guild.

In this situation, unless you give up the task and retreat, you can only grit your teeth. After all, the most basic requirement for Catherine's task is to 'determine' the specific location of the other party, and it is not enough to speculate without seeing the other party with her own eyes. However, Catherine also weighed in her heart, unless the other party has a demigod in charge, in terms of the strength of her own side, although it may not be possible to destroy the other party, it is still possible to ensure safety. With this consideration, Catherine was willing to let the members of her side continue to act, otherwise she would never let everyone take such a big risk with her safety-first personality.

"So, face this door. Any method of infiltration is futile. Pannis pointed to the metal door and said, "This door is probably the best warning system, and it is impossible to open it silently." ”

"Then what do you say?" Benn of the Aeolian Church squinted at Pannis with a little provocation, he admired and admired Pannis's ability to show along the way, but as a man, he still had some unconvincing and competitive psychology: "Let's always go in." ”

"Of course it opened the door the normal way, like this. Pannis grinned, and suddenly flew up and kicked the door. Under the heavy blow, there was a loud bang on the door, and the rust on the surface of the door fell. The door itself did not change in the slightest, not only did it not open, but there was not even a slight shaking.

Vivien walked over with a blank face, grabbed the round handle on the door and pulled it gently. The door was easily pulled open without the slightest obstruction. Pulling open the door, the three girls glanced at Pennis, who was jumping and screaming in pain with their feet, with wooden eyes, and took a few steps back neatly. Pretend you don't know him.

"I have to say, your normal way of opening the door is really special. Moore sighed and patted Pannis on the shoulder. Take the initiative to walk to the gate and look inside.

Compared with the sewers that are tens of meters wide outside, the inside of the gate is not spacious, and it is a straight staircase. The two sides of the staircase are about three meters wide, and when you look up, you can see that the whole staircase has about 80 steps, a total height of 15 meters. There are no fluorite belts overhead to illuminate the staircase corridor, but the tops of the metal walls on both sides emit a faint glow, keeping the corridor from being dark. The walls in the hallway are also made of goblin metal, and although the walls have been covered in a thick layer of dust over time, the navy blue paint can still be faintly seen through the dust.

"Is there really anyone lurking here?" Teresa wiped her finger on the wall, and a clear mark appeared on the wall: "Look at this dust, it seems that no one has passed by for a long time." ”

"No, there are. The giant sword warrior Marcia, who rarely spoke, seemed to feel the breath of battle, suddenly became active, pointed to the ground and said, "Just look at your feet and understand, there is definitely someone." ”

"Are these footprints?" Teresa looked down, the stairs under her feet should have been covered with more dust than the walls on both sides, but now there was not so much floating dirt under her feet, only a large number of criss-crossing messy footprints covering each step: "But despite these footprints, why are there no traces of touch on the handrails of the stairs on both sides?"

"Because that height is for goblins. Moore opened his magic shield very luxuriously and took the lead on the stairs: "I'll go ahead, everyone will follow, if you encounter an enemy, unless the enemy's attack intention is very obvious, don't start a battle for the time being, wait for everyone to follow and assemble before judging the shape and deciding whether to fight or retreat." ”

"Then I'll go last. Pannis nodded: "So as not to be caught in the middle of the attack without preparation." ”

"Be careful, let's go. For the first time, Moore pulled out his weapon, a golden flaren, thirteen strings made of a special material, and the same golden glow. Moore's fingers slashed across the strings, and there was a crunch of metal clashing. The sound of the strings seemed to turn into materialized notes, surrounding him as an invisible shield.

"Chanter of the gods, part-time mage, part-time bard, and it is said that part-time ranger. Watching Moore climb the stairs step by step, Pannis whispered to the girls around him, "This guy is actually a genius, but he likes too many things." If he had specialized in one or two of them, he would have already stepped into the realm of demigods, and no one could predict whether he would eventually become a demigod like he was now. After a while, Lina and Vivien, you two try not to stay too far away from him, he is the strongest legend I have ever seen, even against the demigods can hold out for two or three minutes, as long as you are close to him, in most cases you will not encounter danger. ”

"The strongest?" Catherine looked at Moore's back in surprise, "I can't see it." ”

"Well, he's one of those hidden legends that has hardly ever appeared in the outside world. Pannis said, "There are actually a few such characters in all races, but there are more elves on the other side. ”

"That's amazing. Catherine squinted at Pannis, and asked with a hint of a mocking smile, "How does it compare to you?"

"Hahaha, your joke is so funny. Pannis laughed dryly and nudged Catherine's back: "It's your turn, come on." ”

"Hush. Catherine sneered, ignored Pannis, who had a headache, and climbed up the stairs. Lina leaned over and whispered in Pannis's ear, "I'm struggling with one thing. ”

"What's the matter?" asked Pannis, "important?"

"Yes, it's important. Lina lowered her voice and whispered, "Do you want to tell the eldest sister that you are very familiar with that Moore and also know the elven queen, the eldest sister is so smart, there must be a lot of interesting conjectures." ”

"Hey, you can't talk nonsense. Pannis's eyes widened, and he said in horror: "I don't know Moore at all, and I only know Fraer, don't speculate about whether it's good or not." ”

"Hehe, who knows about this kind of thing?" Lina's eyes were filled with curiosity: "Although the first rule in our adventure group is not to ask about the past, but well, not asking doesn't mean that you can't guess, right? People's imagination is infinite, as for whether the result of imagination is true or false, it doesn't matter at all." ”

"No, it's important. Pannis said with a sad face, "Lord Lina, please let me go." ”

"That's not impossible. Lina smiled wickedly and said, "However, you are not allowed to tell Sister Sù about the fact that I got that book." ”

"This ......," Pannis's face changed. In fact, Lina's new process of finding her friend was not so easy, and the book and some valuables were kept in the safe next to the teleportation circle in the basement of the bombed-out villa outside of Dilsalen. After opening the safe, because she was too excited to see the cover of the book, Lina impulsively reached out to take it directly, if it wasn't for Pannis's timely blocking, it was likely that she would have triggered multiple traps and seriously injured or even died. This impulsive behavior is very dangerous, although Lina's mood can be understood, but Pannis is still ready to tell Catherine about it, and Catherine will definitely let Lina enjoy a lifelong and painful preaching, but she did not expect Lina to take the opportunity to escape punishment. Pannis thought for a moment, shook his head regretfully, and said: "No, this matter is not negotiable, it is related to your future life safety, no matter what, you must be taught a lesson." ”

"You stubborn guy. Lina was not angry, nor disappointed, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, although she turned around and left, she seemed to be very satisfied.

"I hear you. Vivien followed Lina and came out with a sentence that suddenly changed to a disappointed expression under Pannis's dull gaze: "It's a pity that I didn't hear anything. ”

With a "bang", Moore at the front had reached the end of the stairs, which was also a gate. Moore kicked it off, but this time the door didn't mess up, it opened inward, and everyone stretched their shields, and one by one walked into the darkness behind the door. (To be continued......)
