Chapter 40: Boom
The dagger and scimitar were raised at the same time, ready to stab the doorman's body and slit his neck. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but the doorman's finger was already on the red alarm button, and it was like a small flame, extremely glaring, mocking Arcanis.
"Wait, comrade!"
The doorman did not accept the fate of death without hesitation - he did not press the button.
The short sword and scimitar did not stop in the slightest, and a pair of blue eyes focused on it, shooting out a cold killing intent.
"My own people, my own people!"
The doorman withdrew his hand, and the scimitar and dagger deflected, the cold tip of the blade slashing across his neck, the coldness that almost brought his heart to a halt.
"Get out of the alarm button! ”
The doorman immediately sat down in his chair and stared at the mask on Arcanis' face, as if surprised by it.
"I... I'm my own person. He was a young man in his early twenties, with a faint fluff on his lips, and cold sweat running down his cheeks, "Hello comrades from the Book Society." ”
"You should know what to do later, sit down. ”
With that, Arcanis closed the door and hid in the darkness, hiding behind the young man. The doorman turned his head slowly, not knowing if it seemed to be an illusion or something, he felt as if the sharp blade was resting on his neck. He struggled to mobilize the fear-controlled muscles of his face.
Footsteps came from the mouth of the passage getting closer and closer,
"Rogge, what's the matter with you?"
"Nothing was found!" shouted the doorman, his dagger resting on the table.
The patrol searched, and only found some ashes on the floor,
"Don't read any vulgar novels all day!
One of the guards pointed at him and shouted.
"Okay, okay! But I really didn't see anybody. ”
At this point, the green light of the passage flashed and work resumed.
The patrol cursed and left.
"Who are you?"
Arcanis figured out, vigilant in her way of the alarm button.
"I'm a member of the Book Society. He looked nervous, "Well, it's the first time I've been entrusted with such a heavy responsibility, I-"
"I'm still a newbie. ”
"Yes. ”
"What is your mission?"
"Due to the recent persecution of the Scroll Society in the Empire, I have long lost contact with the Order, and the last order is for me to hide and hold my post. He said, "When I see your mask, I know that you are our man, and I will use my position to make it easier for you." ”
"Great, I'm not familiar with the second layer. The doorman could feel the joy behind the mask, "Hello comrade, can you help me get to the second floor?"
"I'm afraid not. He said, "The Empire has given me a duty to stay here all the time. If I go around, I'm afraid they'll bring trouble to your actions. ”
"Thank you, comrade. The blue wolf glanced at the entrance of the passage vigilantly, stood upright, and put his hand on his heart, "For our great cause, struggle." ”
"Struggle. The doorman said, putting his hand to his heart.
With that, Arcanis turned and walked towards the second floor, her figure disappearing into thin air, and the doorman turned his head, his face full of the determination of fighting for the sacred cause. My heart was pounding all the time.
After a few minutes, the doorman let out a sigh of relief, his pounding heart gradually calmed down, and the fortitude on his face turned into the happiness of the rest of his life.
"Luckily, I'm smart. He closed the novel on the table, "What a good novel, it saved my life." ”
He picked up the key, got up, and prepared to open the door, close it, and sound the alarm again.
In this way, he can not only make meritorious efforts to catch the scroll infiltrator, but also hold his life, and he can't help but whistle when he thinks of this.
I'm so smart.
"Shh~~ Huh, hmm-hmm-hmm. ”
A hand gagged him so hard that the blade sank between his ribs and pierced his newly calm heart. The doorman's eyes widened, and the snow-white ceiling became more and more blurry. Before he died, the whisper of death sounded in his ears, and it was a beautiful female voice.
"Don't take people for stupid people. ”
The cold blade spun again, and the guard's young body straightened, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword at his waist lost its strength and fell.
The wolf's left hand was ungloved, and his monstrous hand grabbed his neck, and his fingers seemed to touch a patch, and his four fingers easily poked into it.
"Flesh Manipulation Service, five copper coins!"
Kazkaz's voice rang in his ears.
The deal was worth it, Arcanis thought, and she pulled out her four fingers and helped the doorman into her chair.
Masks were meant to be given at random. The farewell ceremony with his hand on his heart had just come up with by Arcarnes, and the doorman explained too much, which made her even more suspicious.
The corpse moved slowly, its arms resting on the table, the muscles of its face moving, and the expression of fear vanished as if he were still alive. The blue wolf drew his dagger and did not shed a drop of blood from the wound.
There was still some time before the next patrol arrived, and Arcanis curiously flipped through the large book on the table, the name was "Blasphemy", the author was the white-haired man, what a terrible name. Arcarnes remembered that the book seemed to be some kind of forbidden book for the reason: it was very obscene and insulted to the intelligence of the elves, and it was the typical work of a believer in God.
She flipped a few pages, and happened to see that the protagonist **** was a big beauty, and licked it up and down, and the big beauty woke up without retaliation, and then turned hundreds of pages down, and the big beauty also became the protagonist's subordinate, which is really a plot that men like a lot.
"Hehehe, I have to thank this book. ”
As a strong woman, the white-haired girl had an unspeakable dislike for this kind of book, and she didn't have time to continue flipping it, so she put the book back. Turning around and escaping into the shadows, a patrol passed by the entrance of the passage, and no one noticed that the doorman who had been staring at the entrance of the passage was already a corpse.
After passing through the passageway, Arcanis cautiously walked past several "vultures", and on either side of the corridor leading to the second level were "evidence rooms", which seemed to be confident in the safety of the place, and the "evidence rooms" had no doors. As the curious Arcanis passed by, he was caught by a sword placed in a glass case.
She infiltrated the evidence room, and found it the size of a classroom, neatly arranged, with rows of labeled glass and iron cabinets, and the alchemy lamps on the ceiling that seemed to be in disrepair and glowed dimly. Humid air flowed between the iron cabinets, **** the steel, revealing yellow rust. Arcanis felt a little cold as he walked through the iron cabinet.
She looked at the label and saw that there was a mess of things here, such as chandeliers, wall lamps, fist gloves, braces, everything that the vultures thought was valuable.
"Talisman bracelet?"
She saw something good, and secretly opened the glass case, and took out a copper bracelet, the magic pattern on which was very familiar.
"Nice talisman bracelet. ”
She recognized the magical object, which provided its owner with an invisible layer of armor, a boon to many who could only wear thin clothes. Arcanis was a little excited, she hid in a hidden place and put it on her left hand, she felt a kind of magical armor against her skin, and she finally felt a sense of security in her heart.
I finally sneaked in here, and I was sorry for myself if I didn't take something.
With this in mind, the white-haired girl began to secretly look for what she liked.
I don't know how many good things from the Imperial Intelligence Agency have accumulated here, but in a way, it's the treasure of the dragon. She had even seen a family heirloom sword encrusted with priceless gems, but alas, it had no magic. Arcanis can't bring much, so it's a waste to her.
In order to use magical items, you must know their names and uses them beforehand. With the knowledge of her previous life, the white-haired girl found a delicate ring among a large number of jewelry. It was engraved with the name of the previous owner, and with a faint stain of blood, she wore it on her hand.
It is also very common, collectively known as the Defensive Ring, and although it is small, it provides a very peculiar means of protection to the owner, and it can deflect any attack to protect the owner. As we all know, from a magical point of view, the same means of protection cannot be stacked.
For example, if Arcarnes were to wear another piece of inlaid leather armor, there would be no difference between wearing the talisman bracelet and not wearing it. Therefore, the Defense Ring, which provides deflection defense, is a popular magic item, although it is very expensive.
Just as Arcanis was happy, the shadow behind her began to writhe, as if some monster was about to move in the shadows.
The blue wolf had an ominous premonition, and she turned her head, and everything was normal.
Illusion?
Without much thought, Arcanis opened a cabinet containing all kinds of gold coins, many of which had blood stains on them. Just as she was about to put a handful of gold coins back in her pocket, a sharp sound of air breaking sounded behind her.
She shook her head, a rusty dagger stuck in the iron cabinet next to her face, Arcanis rolled and distanced, and saw the full picture of the sneak attacker, it was a skeleton, the bones were the color of shadows, there were still a few pieces of scalp left on the skull, and a few wisps of black smoke kept coming out of the dark eye sockets. Grabbing a rusty dagger in its right hand, it opened its mouth at Arcanis. The voice rang out, like a cry of grievances.
"You.. Fled.. Come with me. ”
Before it could finish speaking, Arcanis stepped forward, a sharp scimitar stabbed between his ribs.
The ribs that had been grazed by the scimitar crackled and burned like dry wood. The wolf looked at it, and saw the tormented soul in its eye sockets, so familiar that she thought of the master of the study that night.
She doesn't know where it came from, but she must fight quickly or she will be found dead. She slashed a second time with a swift blow, but the black skull suddenly vanished, and it appeared on the shadow of the wall, like a burning tree, dancing in pain, and the whole head swelled like a balloon about to burst. Even Arcanis, who knew nothing about it, knew its dangers.
She turned around and ran immediately, and the moment she turned around, the black skeleton suddenly exploded.
"Boom".
The sound was loud enough to wake the dead, and the iron cabinet fell to the ground, smashing the glass cabinet, and the mess rolled out and was all over the floor.
Sharp sirens rang out throughout the dungeon.
"That's terrible. ”
Pushing open the iron cabinet pressed on his body, Arcanis, who was in pain in his back, was full of pain.....
