Chapter Eighty-Eight: It's Awkward
After Matthew demonstrated the use of this arm crossbow, everyone was silent, looking at the crossbow arrows that were still stuck in the wall and trembling, comparing the various crossbow arrows on the mainland, there were no words to describe the shock in their hearts at this time.

After counting the number, there are still eight sets of arm crossbows left on the ground, in addition to the arm crossbows, the rest of the things are relatively common, said to be common, in fact, everyone here can distinguish, some daggers, long swords (for humans should be short swords), shields, some bottles and cans, and a lot of scattered crossbow arrows.
"Alright, all equipped, remember to fill up as many crossbows as possible!"
Under the leadership of Matthew, everyone quickly armed themselves, the arm crossbow was one for each person, the three men each took a shield in their hands, and Rooney also replaced the long sword in his hand with a dwarven long sword, compared to the short sword forged from this dwarven special metal, the long sword in Rooney's hand was simply vulnerable.
There are a lot of crossbows, and Weiss is a little greedy to bring two, Rooney was a little speechless when he saw it, and he also saw that this Weiss had a very good relationship with his own holy son, so he kindly reminded: "How can you hold a sword like this?"
"Why can't you take it?"
Vess asked a strange question, and casually picked up a short sword on the ground. This time it was not only Rooney, but even Matthew couldn't help but let out a "huh".
It turned out that after Weiss picked up the sword, the crossbow bolt on his arm was not activated.
"Vess, can you try to use the crossbow arrow in your right hand?"
Hearing this, Weiss put down the sword in his hand, then clenched his right hand into a fist, and the next moment, the crossbow arrow on his arm was activated, and the bow arm bounced out, entering a state of ready to fire at any time.
"No......"
As far as Matthew's research goes, the dwarf's strange arm crossbow has such an intelligent effect, mainly due to the armguard. The inside of the armguards is carved with a large number of runes, and these rune combinations are more intricate than those on the machines unearthed from the ruins of the wind, and it is these runes that manipulate the powerful crossbow in an incomprehensible way.
It's hard to imagine, but the current situation seems to tell Matthew that he can tell whether a person is a fist or a sword, which is really incredible.
Rooney thought for a moment and handed the long sword in his hand to Weiss: "Try my sword." ”
Weiss just didn't think of this just now, but now he also found out about it, so he took Rooney's long sword, but this time the result was different from before, the moment Weiss held the long sword, the bow arm that had just been withdrawn bounced out again.
"I see!"
Now it is understandable that there must be something unique in the dwarven weapons that allows these crossbows to recognize whether the owner is holding a weapon in his hand, or if he is holding a crossbow with an empty fist to activate the crossbow arrow. Although this kind of technology is still shocking, it is still acceptable, after all, no matter what kind of technology, it is always a dead thing, and it just operates according to certain laws.
The dwarven shield is not large, it can be used as a small shield for several people, and it is more convenient than a large shield in this environment, these shields and arm crossbows should also be a set, and the shield does not have any grip on it, but can be directly attached to the arm crossbow.
This time, we didn't delve into why there was no buckle shield but it could be firmly nailed to the crossbow of the arm, which was destined to have no results.
"Mr. Matthew, let's kill now?"
It seemed that Rooney's eyes were full of murderous eyes, but Matthew shook his head: "No, I think we have stumbled on the right path this time, and we should be able to lead to the real Zuvolt ruins here." ”
"What? This is a fake ruin?" Weiss and Yulong looked shocked, and Ling'er involuntarily opened her small mouth to look at Matthew.
"It can't be said to be fake, there should be a lot of good things at the end of the previous two passages, but this is only the periphery of the ruins, and then we should go deeper into the ruins. ”
Matthew walked over to the metal pole in the center of the room: "Come on, I've taken a closer look, this is not a switch to open the door, but something like a lift, I don't know how big it is, so it's better to stand tight." ”
Everyone hurriedly brought everything they could, stood next to Matthew, and thought about the records of the dwarves' stature in the historical classics, everyone couldn't help but get closer, no one knew what these dwarves thought about when they built this elevator, what if this was a single person!
"Hmm...... Hey......"
Matthew was a little embarrassed, he couldn't even break the damn metal rod this time, Rooney saw that Matthew's face was a little red, and he hurriedly reached over to help.
"Hey...... Hey ......"
"Ahem, Mr. Matthew, do you think there's another way to go, or we'll go out and go another way to the real ruins?"
......
"Ahem, ahem, phew......"
The light shield in his hand dissipated, and Alan slowly got up from the ground, although there were no external injuries, but a series of explosions still made Allen's chest feel stuffy, and he coughed twice and even had a little blood, it seemed that he had some internal injuries, but he finally defended himself through this damn mechanical spider.
Now Alan has officially retracted his previous irrational remarks about the dwarves making this kind of mechanical spider, and he admits that the dwarves are still very wise to make this thing, which can not only reduce the enemy's defensive psychology, but also cause great damage to the enemy by surprise. Sure enough, compared to the wisdom of these dwarf races, Eren is still too young.
The explosion of the mechanical spider was not caused by gunpowder, and the passage itself was very clean, although Alan was not lightly blown up, but his body was still quite clean, this is just a little tattered clothes.
Holding on to the wall and shaking his head, Alan estimated that there should be no more danger, if something really happens, then Alan will be in pain, if you really want to talk about it, this is the most difficult scene Alan has ever encountered on the Holy Spirit Continent.
Originally, he was just an ordinary person, and after coming to the Holy Spirit Continent, because of his identity, he didn't encounter any real danger, Pope Edward IV seemed to ignore Allen, and even "exiled" him, but in fact he was still very concerned about his safety, and many things had been nipped in the bud when Allen didn't know it.
Otherwise, based on Allen's various performances in Dragon Blood City, it's really hard to say what the situation will be now, but it's exactly like this, Allen has always been very inexperienced, although the Holy See has recognized the shortcomings in this area and has begun to remedy it, but it will not let Allen do anything too dangerous in a short period of time.
However, this expedition to the ruins was really out of the control of the Holy See, and Alan also got a truly weighty experience.
